We hope he will live to a good old ago, and always retain a ten der spot in his heart for the printers The farmers will not have much time to devote to politics during this month. Tho grass will require all their attention. When the candidates come around elec tioneering, the farmers should ask them to boo a few rows. We believe they would dolt. . We are requested to announce that a meeting of Martin Township Democratic Club wfll be held at Cllnkscalos' Mill on ?turd?y, 12th-*?B*t, at 2 o'dook p. m., or tho purpose Of re-organizing and looting officers.

Each member of his Company wes presented with a Testament on tue eve of their departure for the war. it has boen MTcXt"iCto?y-andl8l,?KUy priEOd h* We startod oui to collect a few bills tho other day. Wo had not gone far before wo mot a man with his nose in his hand Wo asked him what was tho matter. He replied that ho had been out dunning Wo didn't go any further, but retraced our steps at lightning speed to our quar tera. Wo publish this as a warning to those who may have bills to collect. Maj. Geo. W. Maret, of Fork township, showed us an old document tho othor day. It was a grant from tho govern ment for three hundred acres of laud dated April 4, 1775, and printed on narri,! meru. The grant was niado in pursu ance of an Act of tho General Assombly for tho purpose of securing and granting land to offlcors or soldiers of tho Revolu tionary war. Mr. Maret now owns and resides on a portion of the original tract. Mr. Fielding Haynlo cams near being drowned while crossing the ford at Leak & Jones' mill, in V?rennos township, on Tuesday afternoon of last weok. Tho stream was not very wido, and ho thought ho could cross without any trou ble. Ho hadn't gono half way through tho creek when tho buggy turned ovoron top of him. Tho wator was so swift that tho horso could not swim om, and all tbroo wero carried down stioam. Mr. Haynio was carried about two hundred yards, whon he caught hold of a tree and saved himself from a watery grave. The horso got loose from tho buggy and came out safe. The buggy was complotoly wrecked. Wo have boen informed by a first-class millor of this County that in all probabil ity thoro would bo a largo quantity of damaged wheat in consequence of the continued wot weather. Even after it is threshed thero will bo gi eal danger of loss in bc'~jj pu* tsp too cl-irop. Hu au^geais that a small quantity of lime besprinkled through tho wheat as it is being put up permanently. He says several of his cus tomers havo tried it with beneficial re sults for some years. In going through tho smuttor before being mado into flour it is entirely cleaned from tho wheat, leaving it sound and dry. Lime ls cheap, and wo think tho above worthy of a trial, especially this year. Tho rains continue, and from tho pres ent indications there u no tolling when wo will havo fair woather. Tho far mon* ore terribly bohiud with their work, tho majority of thom not having plowed a furrow in tbroo weeks. The cotton that was free from grav when the rains set in is looking well, though it will not remain so long. On Borne farms the grass has taken Buch a hold that it will be almost impossiblo to entirely rid the crops of it. Over one-half of the grain crop is still lu the fields, and some aro of tho opinion that the greater portion of that is ruined. Olhora oro more hopoful, and think that where it hos been properly shocked the damage will not be so great as ls beliovod, oven if the rains continuo for a weok longer. The d .imago resulting from the rains cannot be estimated. Sixteen bridges havo been reported to the County Commissioners as having boen badly damaged or washed away. Nono of tho bridges, however, aro very largo or costly, tho most expensive ono washed away oostiDg only about $180.00. It will cost the County one or two thousand dollars to replace them and repair the damages. From present prospects it looks like the crop of bottom corn upon our larger streams will be a total failure in this County, owing to the recent freshets. Wo suppose under the most favorable cir cumstances, it will probat- f be the mid dle of this month before tho low-lands will be dry enough to ro-plant, especially on our larger streams, making it too late to mature before frost, unless tho Fall be very late. Under these circumstances what is the best thing for oar farmers to do ? In our opinion, and while we do not wish to appoar as knowing moro about their business than they do them selves, the only way out of the difficulty is to plant, as soon as the land bocomes dry enough, a crop of tho early Dent corn, which matures in about B?X weeks. Not only can tho bottom lands be planted with this corn, but the lauds recently in wheat and oats, If properly manured and worked, Is almost certain to make a crop. Messrs. Bleckloy, Brown &. Fretwell, and perhaps other merchants, hove ordered a lot of the above corn, and if the farmers think it worthy of trial they can supply themselves by making' thoir orders at once. In company with friend L. P. Smith, wo attonded the Union Meeting of Bethel Association at Andersonville last Sunday.. Owing to the cloudy morning tho crowd in attendance was not as large as it would have been had the woather been fair. However, the church was crowded, and everybody present seemed interested in the services. In tho forenoon Rev. R. H. Grim il:, Corresponding Secretary of the State Micsiou Board, and Mr. L. P. Smith mado excellent addresses in bohalf of the Sunday School work. They wore listen ed to very attentively, and apparently made a good impression on their hearers. Immediately after the morning exercisos were concluded, Dr. Griffith preaohed an interesting sormon from the text, "What do yo moro than others?" -When i. the meeting adjourned we repaired to tho elegant and hospitable home of Mr. E. P. Earle, where we dined. We regretted very much to find Mr. Earle sick, he having'been confined to his bcd for tho past two weeks. He is improving slow ly, and we hope he will soon bo restored to'his usual health. Mr. Earle has one of tho most charming homes to bo found anywhere, and this, togethor with the kindness and hospitality of his house hold, makes ono's stay there very pleas ant Wo returned home late in the after noon, feeling well repaid for our trip.

This is oven greater causo 1 for joy than tho othor, for unless the mind bo cultivated aud oxpandod, money and its concomitants aro a mixed blessing, if a blessing at all. I see no roason why you should not have two hundred young men In tho Military School, and two hun dred young ladles in tho Female Semi nary, and doubtless you will ero long. Anderson County boiug one of tho very host Counties in tho State, why should not hor schools vlo with the boat? I trust you moy put tho 8. Y. Railroad through soon. I hove a ?mali amount in vested in that entorprlso, and I don't want it buriod. My heart was touched by tho universal kindnoss and unstinted hospitality ex tended to mo whilo in your city. I was welcomed by all, white and black, as a son coining homo from tx long visit. Scores of doora wero opened to mo, tho majority of which I could not enter for want of time.

Certainly he baa a strong hold on his people, and desorvos to have. But I must cl?so this lotter. I didn't intend to say so rauch. Said n gentleman to bis wifo once, "My dear, you are very demonstrative." "Yes," was tho repl/, "for I have a groat deal to demoustri?:o."
