The matter of procuring stone for the Chariesion jetties will be a question to decide at an early day, and we wish to put in the claims of York county as being able to furnish as fine a quality for the purpose as can be found in the Union. The quarries, too, are inexhaustible, the stone can be furnished of any size or shape desirable, and it lies convenient for shipment by railroad. Besides the illimitable supply of fine granite in this county, there is near town, on the lands of Mr. F. Happerfield, a quarry of blue stone or amalgaraite, which is susceptible of as high a polish as the finest Italian marble, and would be iu great quest by builders and workers in stone, if the quarry were extensively developed, and the stone regular ly placed on the market. FINE FRUIT. Sheriff Glenn presented us last Saturday with a cluster of peaches of the variety known _ as "Early Rivers." These peaches grow somewhat in the manner of a bunch of grapes, and the bunch to which we allude, though on a branch but eight inches in length, consisted of ten fine, well ripened peaches, averaging seven inches in circumference. The tree upon which they grew, was ordered from the nursery of J. Van Lindley, Greensboro, N. C., three years ago, last fall, and the present is the second crop it has borne. Sheriff Glenn has a fine crop of fruit this year. His trees are thrifty and in a flourishing condition, a sure reward for bestowing upon them prop er attention. Besides a thorough tillage of his orchard grounds, in the spring of every year he applies a fertilizer of wood ashes to the roots of the trees, the beneficial effect of which is discernible in the abundance and fine quality of the fruit with which they are laden. LOCAL BRIEFS. The telegraph office has been removed to the depot. N The Fourth being a holiday, the post office will be closed to-day. The Jenkins Rifles sailed for Chester yesterday afternoon, anticipating a delightful visit to our sister town.

Witherspoon, who has been confined to his room by severe indisposition for several days, is, we are pleased to learn, convalescing. v The new store house of Latimer & Hemphill is rapidly approaching completion, and will be ready for occupancy in time for the fall trade. About thirty persons, including a number of ladies, went on an excursion from this place to Greenville last Tuesday, returning at 11.30 that night. Messrs. Happerfield & Grist have successfully finished a kiln of 100,000 bricks made to order for a building to be erected on Main street. Their force is now employed making another kiln. Refreshing showers of rain fell on Friday ^ and Sunday nights. The weather is quite favorable to the growing crops, which are generally represented to be in a flourishing , condition. We have been shown a hen egg which has a history. The hen which laid it was observed by its owner for several days to be in a mopish condition, often exhibiting signs of extreme pain. Every known remedy for chicken chelera was employed without avail, and the hen was given up to die, until the other day when she was seen coming from a nest, cackling with delight. An examination of the nest revealed an ordinary egg, but inside the egg is a large brass piu, which biddy had swallowed, aud was the evident cause of her distress. YORKVILLE STUDENTS. Miss Annie K. Rawlinson graduated from Culpeper Female Seminary, Virginia, at the recent commencement, receiving a diploma for her attainments in schools of English, Natural Sciences and History, and a certificate of distinction for her proficiency in instrumental music, geometry, intermediate r- French, senior algebra and senior arithmetic. Miss Rawlinson will spend several weeks in Virginia before returning to her home in this place. Mr. Joseph A. McLean, Jr., who, for the naar twn vpars has been a student at Finlev ! l"~v J ^ High School, Lenoir, N. C., has returned > home, the session having closed. Mr. Mc- j Lean will enter Davidson College at the beginning of next session. Mr. John Stauyarne Wilson received his diploma at Washington Lee University last! week. He was honored with the distinction of being chosen Orator of the Graham Lee Society, for which occasion he chose as his . theme, "Our Present the bequest and crown of the Past." He discussed the progress of civilization, instancirg the history of ancient; and modern times to show the development of J natural laws, in continued progress, material and intellectual. He recognized America as the culmination of this advance from the earliest times, aud predicted a majestic future. But as yet we are in our infancy ; as the tide . of generations has been rolling on down the tide of ages, the t:de of conquest has ever been rolling with it onward and westward, j ami it required not the mind of the enthusiast' ' to instinctively realize that the tide had at I last reached its destination upon the shores ! of "Young America." He urged his associates to fulfill their mission upon the elevated plaDe which had been assigned them, and to bequeath to posterity an evidence of still further advance as a testimony of faithful work on their part and in their age. At the same University the degrees of Bachelor of Philosophy and Bachelor of Arts were conferred upon William Spencer Currell. He will return to the University next session. Among the orators at Davidson College Commencement last week, was Mr. J. A. Wilson, of this county, member of the Eumeuean Society. The subject of his oration was "Liberal Education." He maintained the position that the development of the mind by the studies which are especially adapted to that purpose should be the object of educational institutions, rather than the accumulalation of facts. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM CHESTER. Chester, S. C., July 1, 1878. Recently I gave the prominent facts in the trial of a case before a Trial Justice in which the plaintiff claimed damages for injury done by defendant in killing plaintiff's cattle. The jury did not find for the plaintiff to the amount of a single cent, for the reason that the damage done the defendant by his cattle was equivalent to the value of the cattle killed. Another case has been tried, in which it was alleged that the stock law had been violated. Samuel McNeal prosecuted James Kirkpatrick for neglect in allowing his cattle to get out, and damage the crops of other persons. According to a late statute, it is an indictable offence for any person to wilfully neglect to keep up his enclosure, whereby damage is sustained by others. Though the prosecutor had suffered damage, yet the testimony showed the exercising of necessary care by the defendant in keeping up his fence. It was a rail fence, and every effort was made by the defendant to enclose his stock. As no negligence was proved, the decision of the Trial Justice was in favor of the defendant. Cases arising from violations of the stock law promise to be quite frequent. Chester is becoming a popular place for picnics. A few days since a considerable number of Charlottese were here in pursuit of pleasure. If this consists in sight-seeing and shooting, dancing and drinking, they certainly found it. On last Tuesday morning au excursion train, composed of picnickers from Dallas, Gastonia, Yorkville and other points along the line of the railroad arrived here, and here remained during the day. They made their headquarters at Brice's grove, though they were engaged a portion of their time insight-seeing, notwithstanding the intense heat of the sun. In sedateuess and soberness, they differed very materially from the Charlotte crowd, who, for the most part, had a liking for strong drink, and gratified this propensity. Major E. C. McLurj has declined the invitation extended by the Executive Committee of the Survivors' Association of Chester, to deliver the address before the Association^ the 1st of August. His official duties will prevent his absence from Dallas at that time. He regrets his inability to be present, as nothing, he says, would afford him more pleasure than to grasp once again the hands of bis comrades of the "glorious old Sixth." Candidates for the Legislature and county offices have already been announced by their friends, or "many voters." These are only forerunners of the host from whom the public will be privileged to choose. Messrs. John J. Hemphill, Osmond Barber and Dr. A. F. Anderson "stAud" (to use an English expression) for the Legislature, Mr. J. H. Buchanan for Probate Judge, and Rev. J. E. White for School Commissioner. Candidates for the Legislature are requested to inform the public whether or not they favor the reestablishment and endowment of the State University, aud the levy of a tax to retire annually a certain amount of the bonds of Chester county issued in favor of the Chester and Lenoir Railroad. They will doubtless give their views upon these points. The Town Council destroyed, on Wednesuftofnnnn hi I la nf the town nf Chester. to the amount of $475. This makes about $4,000 of these notes that have been redeemed since the inauguration of the Agurs administration. At the present rate of redemption, it will not be a great while before the shinplaster indebtedness of our town will be numbered with the things that were. The closing exercises of the Chester Male Academy, of which VV. H. Witherow, Esq., is principal, were held last week. The examination, which consumed Thursday and Friday, passed off creditably to both teacher and pupils. Mr. Witherow is an able and faithful teacher, and will, no doubt, be the principal of our Academy as long as he desires the position. The closing exercises of the colored school, of which Rev. Mr. Loorais is principal, were held on Friday. The pupils are said to have displayed commendable knowledge of the various studies in which they were examined. Professor Montoon, of the Biddle University of Charlotte, delivered an interesting address. The exercises having ended to the satisfaction of all present, the festive board was spread, and refreshments enjoyed to the still greater satisfaction and pleasure of all participants. Intensely hot weather has made its appearance here. Up to within a few days Spring has been lingering in the lap of Summer, but has 6nally departed. Summer is now herein all her glory. Lieuteuaut Butler Alston, of Rock Hill, has accepted an invitation to deliver the address before the Survivors' Association, at this place, on the 1st of August. He shared in the hardships and dangers of the gallant veterans of the "Old Sixth," and as he is endowed with the necessary mental qualifications, he is expected to favor his friends with a fine address. Judge T. J. Mackey has returned home, after wiuning fresh honors in Charleston. The ability and impartiality with which he presided over the Court, and the immense amount of business transacted during the term, have won for him the highest commendations from the bar and press of that city. I His brilliant talents compel recognition. The track-layers on the Cheraw and Ches- j ter Railroad have reached about two milts [ below Rich Hill. President Hardin has or-1 dered another supply of iron. When it arrives the track can be laid to Fishing Creek. Lancaster will then be within eleven miles of the terminus. Rev. S. A. Trenholm, of the Presbyterian Church, has beeu given a month for rest and recreatiou. Great preparations are being made for the festival on Wednesday evening. Indications favor a brilliant success. Qui. THE LOW-COUNTRY PROBLEM SOLVED. Some months ago we published the report of the Committee on Coast Lands of the Agricultural Society ofSouth Carolina, in which was described a new method of cultivating oats and wheat in the low-country. This j method is the rule of experiments made by Dr. St. Julien Ravenel with the vetch or cowpea and the fertilizer known as ash-element. , There was every reason to believe that by I this method, at moderate cost, paying crops could be raised on the almost worthless light and saudv lands in the low country. This done, the great problem was solved. What was theory is now practice. Promise has ripened iuto performance. Upon the experimental farms at the Atlantic and the Stono Phosphate Works the most cheering results have been obtained. At the Atlantic Works the yield of oats, by I)r. Ravenel's mode of culture, averages 44 hushels to the acre, and from 21 to 30 bushels of wheat to the acre. At the Stono works the yield of oats was 51 bushels to the acre. These crops were made on common land, or old field. Taking the average yield of oats at 45 bushels, worth 50 cents a bushel in market, the crop will produce $22 50 to the acre. In wheat, at 25 bushels, selling at 81 25, the crop is worth 831 25 an acre. The land on which these i crops are made is not worth more than 85 an I acre, if so much; and by careful calculation | the cost of cultivation, including harvesting | and preparing for market, does not exceed : 815 an acre. | This is far more profitable than cotton, where uplaud cotton can be grown, and wheat and oats have the additional advantage that they need little cultivation, while cotton isau all-year crop. The Agricultural Society, with Dr. Ravenel, have solved the low-country problem, in demonstrating that, on common laud, a net profit of from 87 to 816 an acre can be made by the cultivation of crops which need comparatively little working, and ara oanomn 11 tr orlnntorl tr? whlt.P lfthor. It WE3 a great day for South Carolina when the value of the phosphatic nodules was discovered. It is a greater day when it is shown that a comfortable living can be made on the old fields amid the broomsedge of lower South Carolina !?New and Courier. Sumter not Behind.?One of our subscribers?a practical and energetic planter, as well as a successful horticulturist?after readiug the paragraph copied by us last week, iu regard to the growing of tea and cork in Georgia, concluded that he would let the public know that Sumter county is entitled to as much distinction as our Georgia neighbors. He, therefore, on last Saturday, brought us some tea leaves and some pieces of cork, grown on his place a few miles from town. The tea was, of course, in its greeif state, but that it is successfully grown here is the only point that we are interested in at present; that it can be perfectly cured in this country has been fully demonstrated. The cork tree has been growing on his place for a number of years, and was raised from the seed, several of the acorns having been sent to him from Washington. The cork oak is a native of Spain and Portugal. The bark, which is thick and spongy, is the part used. The first growth, which is coarse and seamed, is stripped off, after which, in five or six years, a new and fine bark is formed, from which the best stoppers are made.? True Southron.
