Letter from the Country. OHXSTHB, S. 0., June 6,1866. Editor? Daily Newt: t Being Interested in all that pertain s to the prosperity of our Southern cities, and erpeolally charleston (my r former home), I have with pleasure observed that pub lic? attention has been oalled to the freights now charged by tho South Carolina Railroad Company. I would also like to direct the public notice to the schedule now -being run by that road. Tho Sonth Carolina Railroad now roaches Columbia st 5.20 P. M., and the Charlotte road leaves there st 4.16 P. M. (to make the connection going north st Charlotte). By this means (the difference of only one hour), pas senger, aro detained in Columbia twenty-four hours, and the ssme thing is the case going south. Onr mails now take twenty-four hours longer than formerly to reach na, and your valuablo paper does not roach us now until the third day after publication. It taken now but s few hours longer to go from bore to New York than it does to go from here to Charleston. These facie, together with the exorbitant frrigbts, must inevltsbly have the effect of compelling all mercantile men in this seotlon to go North for their goods, as a matter of Self-interest. Hoping that this stato of affairs may be soon changed, [i I am Yours respootfnlly, MERCHANT. The.?o philanthropists who declare the South has not been punished for its rebellion against the Goneral Gov ernment, and deny mercy to Its Inhabitants, are not at all appeased with the death of forty thou sand men, most of whom v. re heads of families, in s single State; with sixty thou'ina 1 widows and orphans and sixty four thousand .Urviug people! This seem, s retribution that should satisfy the sternest inquisitor-one sufficient to work all the repentance physical and mental sgeny cm produce and to give all the security against repeated transgreeiions that misery can rsnaer.-Borton Port. Crops In mississippi. Tho following extract from a priva to letter toa gen tleman of this city, from Mississippi, giving Informa tion in regard to the crop prospects ofthat State, will bo read with interest: GnAWFonnviiAE, LOWNDES Co., Miss., May 27, I860. * # * ? * * Tho crop prospects are not so good now as they wore at tho dato of my last. Wo have had heavy rains through all this month. For thn first eleven days it ralnod heavily every day or night, which caused tho loss of two we ek's work on the crop, for I must toll you that ono day's hsrd rain reduces this prairie land to the consis tency of wheat flour dough mixed with a little tar, and It takes a day or two of dry weather to makeitplowablo. While this prolonged rain rendered it lmposBlblo to work in the Holds, it also gave tho weedB and grass an Impetus, which It will be vory hard to stop. Add to this tho" laziness of the freedmen, and yon can readily understa nd the ckange In the prospect. Instead of re doubling their exertions as they seo the grass gaining on t hem, they appear to give up, and it 1B worse than nsoless to try to make them understand that their wages depends upon the crop ; the fear of lo Bin g monoy is no sti mnlus to them; they have enough to eat to-day, and that's all they care about I havo Just returned from a ride of somo twenty miles, and found the same condition of thugs all the way. My next door neighbor, who has visited recently portions of Alabama, reports the same, and perhaps a little worse. We havo scarcely had two dava conscutivoly of dry weather since the 1st instant ; it is raining now, and if it were not for a ghmpso of the rainbow now and then, reminding one of the promise, we might almost fear another forty days' and nights' affair. I see that a correspondent of the New York Herald estimates the present crop at 4,000,000 bales. The man la either a knave or a fool-most probably the former. The statement waa made purely fer effect, and without regard to truth or a knowledge of the subject. With the whole Mississippi VaUey inundated, levees broken, fences destroyed, Ac, the Tomblgbee and other rivers swollen to bursting, thousands of negroes dead or car ried to Cuba and sold, or made "aogers" of, and the re mainder more lazy and inefficient than ever-the man who, under this state of things, can honestly say ho ex pects to see 4,000,000 bales this year, is much more sanguine than any I've seen. THE THERMOMETKR.-We copy the following weather item from tho New Orleans Time*, of the 1st, and con fess ourselves very muoh puzzlod at tho remarkably low temperature registered here. We have been to New Or leans in January, and felt 90. Perhaps their fahrenheit is different from our* : ? "Monday last, we leam from the record in the City Telegraph Offloe, was tho hottest day of the season, the mercury Indicating 87 degrees fahrenheit at noon, and continuing at this point for some time afterwards. At six o'clock it fell rapidly seventeen degrees, and stood at 70, when the storm burst upon this section. At meridian ot Tuesday, the thermometer indicated 63 de grees, and at the same hour on Wednesday 64 degrees; and what is singular, it was several degrees warmer both previous and subsequent to the noon hour upon each of these days. Xeaterday, at 6 o'clock A M., the mercury was up to the 69 degree mark, and continued rising until 10 o'clock, when it touohed the 73 figure; after whloh it again began falling slowly. A oold rain tot In, and a more duU, dreary, suicidal day mortals are seldom callad upon to endure. But "Ulsan lil wind that blows nobody good," and the recent state of the atmosphere will probably prove remunerative to the venders of patent medicines for the cure of coughs, colds an d other bodily Ula of a simitar character. ' ' A NICE PTOTUBE.-The Savannah News and Herald has recently embellished ita columns with an illustra tion which cannot rut be repugnant to Southern ladles. A New York merchant advertising tobaccos has a wood out representing a "Carolina belle," fashionably attired -dipping snuff. This la a very questionable way of seeking Southern trade, and la an Imputation at ono* slanderous and Insulting. The impression conveyed is, that the nauseous habit of snuff dipping prevails among our ladies. Such is not the case, and hence the wood-out is a standing calumny. [Augusta Constitutionalist. We agree with you, and think the Idea contempUble In the extreme. We can't see how a respectable paper would admit such a blackguard effort at sensation in Its columns. It would be more appropriate In a Vermont paper than a respectado Georgia Journal -[EDS. The Columbus Sun finds the following touching the burning of Columbia, S. C, In the Indianapolis (In diana) Journal: "On the return of Sherman's army, two regiments of it camped a day and night on the commons near our residence. The soldiers engaged In free conversation, and, as was natural, made their grand march under Sherman through the South, and particularly the part of it through South Carolina, the theme of aairation. They stated that our soldiers burned Columbia; that they desolated, as far as could be done, where they marched; and, whether Columbia was burned by Sher man's order or not, they could not further say than that it was burned by our soldiers, under the orders of their immediate commanders, but whether they had orders From Sherman or not, was only with them a matter of Inference." > * ?

[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] NEW YOBK, June 4.-Still the Feniana I Ever tho Fe nianal Fenian, forover, and nothing but Feniana. Fenian new. in the newspsperS; Fenian tain at the street corners; Fenian talk in the bar room a and restau rants; Fenian everywhere. Irish everywhere and other places besides; Irish in each man's m-uth; Irish on each man's brain; nothing bnt Fenian from Alpha to O mogo. On Saturday last the excitement was intense; the sons of Erin cheered till tboy were hoarso, and then thoy cheered till they wero better again ; tho Irish flag floated bravely from the headquarters of Colonel Roberts, and Colonel Roberts himself was Jubilant in tho ex treme-Jubilant on the strength of the news that the invading army bad been victorious, that the British lion had been close shaven ia his den by Fenian ran gore, sud that aU was right. KHIN 00 BRAH was the word, and the so a of Erin did brag with a vengeance; but the bragging waa ill-timed, for tho news soon carno that all waa not right-lo fact that all waa wrong -that the invaders (the Fenians) had been compolled to ovacuato Fort Erle, aud that tho battle of Ridgeway had amounted to nothing, inasmuch as no Important results accrued therefrom. The Fenians had fought bravely bad taken off their coats-bad taken off their vests had pulled off their shirts-had gone in to wi -Baying in the language of Uthetto: "Naked as I am I will as sault thoo"-had assaulted-had succeeded at first, and jot had gained nothing with the gaining ; in short,ali that had begun right had ended wrong, and the wholo affair was s faUure. The news that Col. O'Nell and seven hundred of the Invaders have been captured by the au thority of Unole 8am, pours the coldest kind of cold water on the Fenian movement, which will, no doubt, ere long be no movement at all. And ao the Fonlan af faira sre in s tangle, and will probably result in-no thing. The oholera is making more heading than the Fenians. Twelvo deaths have occurred since the last report, and there are five new oasea on board the hospital ship Fal oon. The diaeaao, however, has not yet got a foothold m the city lttelf, and hopes are entertained that the unwolcome vialter may be kept out altogether. There were fewer case, of drunkennes. yesterday in and around the city than on any Sunday within the memory of the oldeat inhabitant's great grandfather. The Excise Law kept people in the oity from drinking, and the rainy weather kept them from going elsewhere to get drunk-ergo s great many people were sober. Yesterday afternoon the first concert of the season was given at the? Central Park. Magnificent equipages rolled along the broad and beautiful drives and avenue*, whilst tho walks were crowded with pedestrians in search of s few hours recreation and s little more air than is vouchsafed them in the crowded, sultry oity below. The Central Park is already, in many respocts, equal, and in some superior, to the oolebrated Bot* de Boulougne of Paris, and is destined ere long to surpa.. it in all respects. A numoer of Mormons who were in this oity on la? t Friday had s nice little dinner at the Metropolitan Hotel, where they oolebrated in a becoming manner the anni versary of tho natal day of Brigham Young, the gallant man, who ia so fond of the fair aox, that he decUne. the word wife in the singular nu M bor bu t accopts it in the plural. Tho man of many wives was toasted and drank to, and the people who drank to bim after his health was drunk, becsme drunk themselves. ino yatohing season will begin here in s couple of weeks, when the annual ocean regatta will take place, the boats starting from Owlshoad and running around the light .hip off Sandy Hook.

The society for the prevention of cruelty to animals bad s man arrested a few days ago for cruelty to turtles -the man having passed cords through the poor tur tle's legs to secure them and prevent thom from prome nading without care. The man contends that a turtle is a (lah, and a flab ia not an animal, therefore tho tur tle la not an animal. He did not, however, get off on ttls ground, but wa. acquitted on the strength of the moat learned testimony of a most learned doctor, who ?aid that the tnrtlo com- ; under the ho-d of the ape?les called orustaceona, and is amphibious like s crab, lob* ?ter or oyster, and that passing a cord through the fin or leg of his turtleship, is no worse than opening an oyster with a knife. The man was discharged, and the turtles must suffer in future unavenged. On last Friday night an infernal machine wss discov ered in Mercer-street Said infernal machine was s small segar box, containing several pounds of powder, with some matches, Ac.

But it did Dot blow up-having been ploked up by a watchful guar dian of the night. Theatres drawing as usual. Concert halls more so. MOULTRIE. -;-? ? ? TUE VAXXXT or VrnarmA.-The noble people of the Valley of Virginio, who contributed so largely to .*. heroism of the Confederate armies, and bore with so muoh fortitudo the desolations inflicted on them by a ruthless enemy, sre now, with praiseworthy energy, re pairing their waste-places and effacing tho traces of the destroyer. The Shenandoah Herald of last Thursday, after stating "that nearly every mill and barn in the Valley, between Harrlsonburg and Winchester, was burned," says: "With that indomitable energy and perseverance, characteristic of the bardy yeomanry of the Valley, they did not fold their arms and spond their time in fretting and worrying themselves about the matter, but went to work with o h nar ty will to repair tho damages; and not wlthBtandina the elender resources in money at com mand, new barna and mills have risen, Phoanlx-Uke, upon the sites of those burned. In this neighborhood, we are happy to say, the moat of the barns have been rebuilt and tho mills are progressing rapidly and will be completed intimo for the growing crops."

General MAQRUDER and Til. F.

A desperste battle occurred on the 10th of April, neer Itaplru, on the river Parana. The Paraguayans were the attacking party, and wera re pulsad with heavy slaughter. Six dsys sfterwsrd the Braitllsn foroes crossed the river into Paraguay and were again victorious, occupying the Important post of Itaplru. Within three days the whole sUled army was brought over, and Paraguayan soil thus made the field of conflict Paraguay, it will be remembered, la gov erned by President FRANCISCO LOPXZ. Though nomi nal ly republican, his administration bas been s diets, torshlp of the most despotlo obarsoter. Notwithstand ing tho ambitions projects Brazil may cherish for the extension of her boundaries southward, the success of the alllra will boneflt the people of Paraguay sud Insure the safety of the adjoining states. The immense wealth and selfish ambition of Lorxz rendered him s dangerous neighbor and arrogant ruler, and it will bo well if bis strength is crippled. - ? ? ?

Doctors were Living long before old Galen, And since, exceeding learned, grave and sage; But the stomachics they were bound to fail in; Success esme not until this later age, aNow is the era sick folks are made hale in, And dread dyspepsia driven from the stage, Agues, remittents, headaches-rest hesd*splltters Vanish Like smoke before HOSTETTER'S BITTERS. Herbs, barks and roots compose the raro Infusion ; No mlnersl poison mara their Juices pure. And Bye's mild essenoe holds them In solution. The tsste is pleasant the effect Is sure. Ne'er have the Bitters yet proved s delusion; 4 Try them In time, and health and strength secure. The dragon-slayer figures on the label, And they, Uko hito, to MT? tho week sre able. Jane 4 ft
