A groat deal of wheat hos begun to sprout
in consequence of thc continued wot. weather.
The damage to this crop, the yield bf which
has been very largo this year, will bo very
L"-cat, unless we have dry weather for a
short time.
Hov. H. N. Hays will deliver an address

time. j
Messrs. J. L. Byrum and fi. S. Nowell

excellent article of molasses.
J. Reese Pant, Esq., returned on last
Monday evening via Clinrlcston, by steamer
from New York, whither ho has been on a
visit for thc past three weeks. He is looking
well, although he says that after a fair trial
of rail and water travel he has decided most
positively that steamboating is not condu
cive of unal'Myed pleasure, especially if thc
gea is a little rough, and hence he proposes
in future to malic his journeys by railroad.
Mr. L. E. Campbell brought us on last
Thursday a very fine Bquash for this season
of thc year. It measured nine inches iu
diameter, and weighed three pounds and
tliree-quaiiers. Campbell says as this is off'
year, ho has to work a great deal harder
than usual on his farra, to make up for
time lost in the campaign of last year, and
also to get suiuciently ahead to Ix; prepared
for tho canvass of 1877.

The merchants of Anderson have signed
an agreement to close their stores at half

Our Townvllle correspondent announces
thc death of Dr. W. L. Broyles, a prominent
and in?ueiitial citizen of this County, re

Dr. It. E. Thompson has for thc past few
years given a portion of his attention to ob
taining a good orchard, and has now one of
the finest young orchards in the County.
It contains a very largo variety of fruit
trees, and thc Doctor gare us a practical
illustration of his success in growing early
peaches by bringing us on last Tuesday
some large, perfect, well-ripened, luscious
ones of the Early Beatrice variety. If all
of our furmers would give a little more time
and little better atteution to fruits, they
would find our cl'matc and our soil as good
for apples, peaches, grapes, plums and
berries as any other in the world. To do
this, however, they must, as Dr. Thompson
has done, Introduce new varieties, and not
content themselves with planting eurah
twig?i upon the poorest hill tops of tho
farm. It could bc made a very profitable
industry if pursued at all generally.
DEATH OF AIT EXCELLENT LADY.
It ia with deep regret that wo perform the
sad duty of chronicling the death of Mrs.
John E. Breazeale, rbrmorly Miss Bellott?,
of Pendleton, which occurred at the resi
dence of her husband in this pince after an
illness of a little more thais one week.
Mrs. Brcazenlc was an estimable lady,
possessed of all those gentle and noolo traits
which endear a true woman to her relatives
and friends. In all of the relations of life
shu attracted by her quiet grace and domes
tic virtues thc friendship and admiration ol
those with whom she was associated. A
devotod wife, a fond and conscientious
mother and a true friend, she leaves by her
death a vacant seat around the hearthstone
which husband and children, relatives and
frieniL, wi!', sadly mourn. Mrs. Brcazcalc
ut the time of her death was in thc morning
of her womanhood, with bright prospects ol
lifo before her ; hnt HIP reaper came, anti
thc happy home has been left desolate. It
must, however, ho a ?ource of consol?t ?OG
to thoso who mourn her death to have tin
assurance that they weep not as those with
out hope, for the deceased was a pure, chris
flan woman, whose death was calm ant
I composed. Amembcrof thc Baptist Church
she was a conscientious and devoted chris
tian, whoso faith gavo her power to bit
adieu to her loved ones, and to meet deatl
with a smile as remorseless and beautiful a
that which invokes slumber as a rest fo
physical fatigue.
The funeral services will take place nt tin
Baptist Church to-day, Where many of th
friends and acquaintances of tho doceasc<
will assemble to pay the saddest of earth'
tributes to a departed friend.

GOOD FARMING.
Under this head tho Acaire Oouricr pu
fishes thc following compliment to a farm
of Anderson County :
We had tho pleasure recently of visith
the far?i of Mr. R. M. Morris, who lives ne
Sandy Springs, Anderson County. M
Morns gave us some facts concerning 1
farming last year, which we take plcosu
tn publishing, in the hope that it may stit
ulate some of our Oconec farmers. In 18
off of ono acre of ground Mr. M. produc
32J bushels of wheat, weighing 02 pounds
tho bushel. After thc wheat was harvest
he planted tho samo ground in corn, ai
gnthercd therefrom 2C ouBhcla, weighing
Sounds to the bushr.' and 864 pounds of fe
er. Tho total value of this crop, includl
wheat, corn and fodder, was $05.50. T
cost of production was $28, leaving a r
profit off of one acre of $07.50. Upon anol
cr acre thc samo year he produced 12 bush
of wheat, 12 bushels of ecru, 13 bushels
peas, 150 pounds of fodder and OOO pour
of pea vines, thc total value of which v
$57.50. Tho cost of production was $
leaving a net profit of $47.50. Total pr?

Mr. Monis also infor jed us that on the 2i
of Juno ho sowed b .oadcast eight acres
stubble land in speckled peas at the rate
li bif?uS? :c tho acre, and that he cathe
therefrom nine bushels per aero. Can c
of our Oconoe farmers ueat this? If tl
can, wo would bo glad to hear from tin

.Sandy Springs can boast of os many, if
not more, good, industrious and scientific
farmers than any community In any county
of tho same age. They not only cultivate
their lands thoroughly, but they comply
with the requisite of Chemistry, which says,
"put on as much as you take off." Doing
this, the soil, instead of deteriorating in its
yield, will inora JSC year after year.Tho
wheat crop is being harvested and threshed.
Messrs. Dickson, 1 ickle and McElroy have

LEBANON.
The crops in this locality arc improving
very rapidly since the rain, and the prospect
for Spring-sown oat* bf most nattering.
Our forest trees, widen were almost stripped
of their leaves by the hail-storm, have put
out a sccoud growth, and once more have
assumed their usual Kummer appearance.
.The question of fencing In our ?tock is
being warmly discussed hy all classes of our
community. Thc white and the black alike
take au interest in thc proposed change.
Even our ladies are enthusiastic in their
support of the measure. I believe that the
change in our fence sj-stcm would produce
as beneficial a revolution in our agriculture
as thc inauguration of Hampton has done
lu our polities. Ii. hos been agreed upon
by some of our citizens to dlseuss this qucs- j
tion with thc colored voters, ?nd u meeting J
will take place on Saturday, tho thirtieth
day of this month, near Mountain Spring
(colored) Baptist Church, where Messrs.
Jcpfha and William Harper, and perhaps
others, will address them in favor of the
change.Our debating society will discuss
at its next meeting tho question, "Were
our forefathers justifiable in driving thc
Indians from this country ?" Groat int/irest
ia taken in this society by our citizens. Its
attendance Ls always good, and tho debates
aro sharp and improving.

make it au enjoyable occasion... Ulr. Silas
Heller, of Newberry, and lately graduated

Dr. William Lowndes Broylcs, ono of our
best citizens and, wc believe, a member of
the State Grange, died at his home on last
Thursday, 14th inst., in thc 55th year of Iiis
age. A year or two ago ho was attacked
with a kind of throat affection which thc
skill of some of the best medical men in tho
land could not arrest, and he gradually
grew worso until death terminated his suf
ferings nnd his life, lids Bad eyent be
reaves a wife and five bright, intellectual
children, tho eldest a son, not yet twenty
one years old ; but they have tho tenderest
sympathy and condolence of thc entire
community. Several hundred people, In
cluding about fifty colored persons, wit
nessed thc interment ceremonies, thereby
attesting their genuine respect for the de
ceased. Thc remains were buried at Snrth
Chapel, Methodist Church, of which tho
deceased was an orthodox member, tho
pastor, Rev. T. P. Phillips conducting the
funeral services. Dr. Broyles possessed pos
itive traita of character, was strong In lils
likes, strong in Ids dislikes, strong in sup
porting what he believed to bo right, and
strong in denouncing what ho believed to
bo wrong. There is no man without thc
faults of human nature, but whatever his
faults ho carried in his hand even unto
death tho love and admiration ot a host of
friendB, among whom he Was a tower of
strength, and thc respect even of thoso who
stood opposed to him in thc struggle of life.
MK. EniTon : As I saw in n former tram
ber lin? your columns were open for dis
cussion in regard to the fence law, I take the
liberty of giving my reasons for opposing
tho measure.
' First, it will not i - it thc poor man who
has uo help. In tho first place, he has no
water course ; consequently hu has to dig a
wolli and after a hard day's work ho has to
go half a mlle to water and feed his stock
all tho year round. If he has sheep or goats
he must have two pastures, for If hogs and
.ft 1.?^.? .....I.... '--CC bc "il? T?'iSC
no lambs. Again, there will not be any
thing eaved in the way of timber, for it will
require as many rails to keep up a pasturo
fence as for tho crop? as tiie fence will have
tobe sufficiently strong ? keep anything
from breaking through. Therefore, tho
ralis must bo entirely new and kept so, with
as much repairing every ya?? UJ our present
plan reqr Ires. Ali Ibis would bo very hard
on tho poor man, who would have all or
mest of tiio work to do in addition to bU
usual routine of farm duty.
It would Snit ?Zij? rich man, wo are flee to
admit, aa ho can afford to hire nil the help
ho may need, and can havo as many pas
tures aa he may please, and to him it would
bo a very nice thing. Not so with tho poor
mon. Then again, there must bc ap addi
tional tax to keep up n line fence between
Counties. Now, thc vv*>r man has to pay
hts part of this tax, when ho hos already as
?much as he can stand up to. Besides, wc
aro hardly out of ono political trouble be
fore BOiuo ; illili plan Is Instigated io bring
p"wgyff!g*??q^ . j'i'jj
u* into pother kimi, for it <lp?a ne* refuljo
much 'sagacity' to*" perceive tho sclfislih->w of [
this plan'.. Another reason why tho law '
should net ho passed is, that however strong
the fence may be, wo very frequently have
winda that CHU blow them down ; and sup
li?se this occurs at night, all the stock is at j
once turned out and your crop destroyed be
fore day. These aro things that cannot be '
prevented. Again, a furnier cannot prevent
a thoroughfare being mr.de through hi?
crop unless ho can keep a constant watch,
which no larmer can do.
. Much more might IM said against tho
law, but enough has been already said to
convince any unselfish mind that lt will
operate against moro persons t han lt will
benefit. Lest it should be said the writer
has his own selfish ends to pri?fy, I.W LAS
as many and aa good water-courses for pas
turage cs he may have need, and therefor?'
it would be as much benefit to tho writer as
to others ; but he is not willing to make
others sacrifico their interests foi his Indi
vidual benefit." Neither is lt reasonable or
right that the uiauy poor should be made to
suffer so much Inconvenience for tho benefit
of the few. VARENNES.
AITLKTONS' JUUBNAL for July gives con
siderable space to a novelette by Christian
Reid, entitled "A Work of R?tribution."
It is given complete, and accompanied by a
good' illustration by Mr. 8hq>pard. The
illustrated article is b.ised upon Russell's
volume, "Thc Prince of Wales' Tour in
India," being devoted principally to thc
hunting adventures of the prince. Colonel
Baker's "Turkey bi Europe" affords tho
groundwork for another Eastern paper, in
which there aro somo striking pictures of
life and notsble udventurcs in the Turkish
provinces. There ls a pleasing description
of iite Fame Islands, tho "land of gulls and
guillemots," off the east coast of England,
which ls spiced with a love-adventure. Au
amusing paper on "Osculation" gives the
history, philosophy and poetry of kissing.
This article alone must make the number a
favorite with ladies. An entertaining paper,
by Wirt Bikes, entitled "Tho True Story of
Owen Glendower," is based upon researches
and discoveries recently made at Cardiff,
where Mr. Sikcs is now United States con
sul. A very graphic and striking sketch,
entitled "Lighting a Match," records some
strange adventures in a German inn. Mr.
H. M. Robinson describes in an entertain
ing manner tho characteristics of thc Black
feet Indians, and the peculiar methods of
trading with them. These different popers
illustrate such widely-diversified phases of
life as those of India, Turkey, tho Western
Plains, Wales, Germany, thc English sea
side, and America. There ore poems, short
articles mainly of n humorous character
under the bend of "Collectanea," and tim
editor's usual review of book*, and com
ments on current topics.
Will Carleton poetically called tho negroes
"jet jewelry." Wc thought they were moke
pearls.
