LETTER FROM KERSHAW DISTRICT.
CAMDEN. S. C., Jone 7,1867.
To the Editor of the Charleston Daily Nevos:
Crops and politics are tho chief topics of the
day in our ancient borg. The former are very
promising. Cotton appears, in very good stands
everywhere, and tbe fields seem to have received,
and are still receiving, proper attention from hoe
and plow. On the river plantations the plant is,
on an average, still small, while higher up, in the
I red land adjoining, and in the upper portion of the
District, where the land is not so stiff, it is shoot?
ing np vigorously. To-day a gentleman brought
in a stalk 22? inches, grown on a lot in town. The
latter is now surrounded by large fields of luxu?
riant cotton and waving grain. In fact everybody
seems to be planting this year, thus giving ns
greater breadth of land under cultivation than
usual.
Corn bas met with some drawbacks, especially in
the upper portions of the District, and that planted
early in this vicinity. The cold nights have not
only retarded its growth but encouraged a worm
to issue tor th from its hiding place, and invade the
tender stalks with destructive results. Judging
from diligent inquiry made among planters from
all portions of this and the adjoining Districts,
thoy bave now succeeded in obtaining a good
stand. The seasons have been most propitious
for thc past two weeks, and all vegetation has ad?
vanced greatly in growth, so that to-day we can
see finer stands of corn and cotton than has been
our privilege to witness in many years. We have
indeed cause to thank God for the excellent crop
prospect? now before tu.
There is not much wheat planted in this vicinity,
but m the upper connery I learn large quantities
havu been sown and are now beautifully ripening
for the scythe. All planters of my acquaintance,
large and small, have planted more or less oats,
which also promises well, and is now beading
finely since the recent warm showers.
I have b oar a of but little dissatisfaction with the
freedmen this year. In fact the excellent condi?
tion of the crops attest that the laborers are doing
their duty man/ally.
?ro.? every account of the crop, it is to be
judged, that we are all hopeful and look forward to
financial' as well as political reconstruction next
winter.-, The former depends greatly on the latter,
and both janet gd hand in h and. It is oui- duty to
labor as faithfully for tho one as the other.
As to politics, we have had our share of itinerant
Ba cheal preachers, but thus far the entente cordt.de
between the races has not been disturbed. As yon
have geen from - proceedingB published in the
Journal, every effort has been made by gentlemen
of ability, integrity and high standing to preserve
the existing good feeling by advising the freed?
men only with reference to imp?t tance of indus?
try, energy and perseverance in elevating them?
selves physically and morally.

Contributions of corn have reached here from

By any extrinsio cause. * Since Friday last we have

both' anuri tl and vegetable life. "A dry June has
'formerly boen the wish of the plant.* to enable
him t? get hi' crop out of tho gross; we do not
know wbot his wish is in (hese anomalous days of
rough and -late planting. It bas been frequently
remarked that a large quantity of rain in early
summer,-' with a drought towards tho latter part,
hoe contributed much to the generation of on in?
creased supply of malaria, with an unusual preva?
lence of fever resulting therefrom. Moy we be
spared such calamities, ever remembering that o
"Paul may plant, and an Apollo may water, but it
is God that giveth tho increase."

TEE CHEBAW BRIDGE.-We ore glad to learn
that the Cheraw Bridge is being rapidly rebuilt,
and we ore assured that it wU be completed in a
fow. weeks. Our people will be pleased to learn
this fact, os it is by for more pleasant and con?
venient to cross the river over a good substantial
bridge, than to cross in a flat, as we have been
doing ever since the bridge was burnt. When the
object of rebuilding the bridge at Cheraw was first
proposed it was thought by many toot the enter?
prise would be. a failure, bnt through the indomi?
table energy and perseverance of Mr, W. L. J,
Beid and other stockholders of tbe company, they
! hove succeeded "beyond their expectations. The
contractors for building the bridge hove agreed,
we understand, to finish by the first of August.
[Eastern Journal.
THE WEATHER AND CHOPS.-We ore gratified to
state that tho weather for the past few days has
been very favorable to the crops, The wheat crop
is now nearly ready for being gathered in, and the
farmers appear to be satisfied with the fruits of
: their labor. . The refreshing rains with which oar
[District boo been visited during the past two
weeks hove hod $> very, beneficial effect upon the
growth of corn and cotton. Tho weather is now
very pleasant and delightful, and could not be bet?
ter for the growth of grain and vegetation.-Ibid.
THE CHOPS.-We have been over m the Fork on
a visit, and were muon gratified ot the fine pros?
pects for good crops. Although it is rather early
m the season to predict success in planting, yet
we hear general reports from every port of the
District that Nature has favored the efforts of tho
agricultuxalibt thus for,
Below Branchville, and in the lower part of ihe
Fork, there are numerous forms on the cotton
plants, while the corn is also doing well, notwith?
standing the late cool spell we have had. May
God smile upon our land, and give us bounteous
harvests.-Oran?eburg Times.
GEORGETOWN L?CEUM.-This laudable associa?
tion of the gentlemen of tbe town for the promo?
tion of literary toste, has been folly organized,
with quite on array of names of our prominent
citizens. The following gentlemen have been
elected officers : Col, B. H. Wilson, President ;
MajorS. T.Atkinson, Vice-Presid nt: G. F.8.

CRIMINAL EXECUTION.-The unfortunate man,
S. D. Hodge, was executed yesterday, between the
hoare of ll and 1 o'clock. He was escorted from
tbe prison by the Sheriff and bis deputies, with, a
detachment of the United States troops now on
garrison duty in this city. The bearing of the
prisoner was that of one who did not dread the
extreme penalty of the law that was about to be
inflicted upon htm.
On arriving ot the place of execution he was
conducted to the scaffold by the Sheriff on ono
side, and Bev. W. E. Bogga on the other. He
made no confession but persisted in his innocence;
and when the cap and rope were adjusted ho said,
in substance; "aly friends and gentlemen, I bid
you all farewell. I hope to meet von in a better
ph oe. Falsehood brought me to where I om."
He made no farther confession. Sheriff Dent
then proceeded to execute his duty, tho prisoner
having bode him and the minister (Mr. Buggs)
farewell, and, in a few minutes, be was launched
into eternity. After hanging some time, Dr.
Cones, the United States Surgeon at this post, and
Dr. A. W. Kennedy, examined tbe body and pro?
nounced uta extinct. Ihe remains were then
taken charge of by Sheriff Dent, placed in o neat
coffin, and buried in the vicinity of the place of ex?
ecution. There was a large concourse of spectators
present, but the arrangements made by the Bhenfi
wore carried out in good order; and thus has
passed another human being to his last dread
account,-PAonix,
SPEECH TO THE FREED PEOPLE.-We learn that Mr.
Whittemore was escorted to this place on Wednes?
day the 29th May, by on armed band of freed
people. Now we think that Mr. Whittemore could
have eome here without detriment to life
or limb, and w.thout the necessity of a body
guard. On the next day, Thursday, ne delivered o
speech three hoare in length tu an assemblage of
freed people, numbering upwards of a thousand,
who appeared to cheer him tremendously. No re?
ply was made to his speech, and it appeared, from
from the circumstances of the occasion, that he
had intended, no reply to be mode A fe- whiteB
were in attendance, lt is due to the freedmen and
Mr. Whittemore to say that after the speech was
concluded all the colored people dispersed very
peaceably to their bornes.-Eastern. Journal.
THE CHOPS.-We hear good reporte from the
grain crops in various parts of oar District, The
yield of wheat and other email groin, thought not
as extensively planted os they should have boen,
ure very promising. In some localities, wheat has
been injured by rust, but making its appearance
lato, the dimago has been but slight. Corn in
most sections good, and in some unusually fine.

CHARLESTON, S.
EMIGRATION.
The following letter has been handed to ns for
publication :
CHABLESTON, S. C., May 31,18C7.
Gen. John A. Waqener, oharteston, 8. C. :
DEAS Sra.-Your letter of the 9th instant was
handed me on my return, and 1 am grateful for
your flattering assurances. It encourages me to
write you more fully. Your pamphlet on emigra?
tion is a handsome tribute to the resources of tho
State and the spirit of the people. Natural re?
sources, developed by industrious and ingenious
labor, must command capital; and the first neces?
sity of oar anomalous condition is the introduction
of that labor. Whatever may be said ot the mine?
ral and manufacturing resources of the State, its
br and immediate interests are agricultural, and
i'.- most fertile and available sec'ion, prolijo in all
those great staples which benumbed oar enterprise
by easy wealth, lie in the low cou try. This entire
region is as rich aa tempts cultivation anywhere,
and no soil surpasses its native advantages.
Among the most fertile and accessible of the lands
in the low country are those lying in Berkeley Dis?
trict, between the rivera and the seaboard, and ex?
tending up and along the Santee. The fact that
whatever Northern enterprise bas adventured in
the planting interest since the war, has been
chiefly invested there, is confirmation strong of
its reputation for fertility. The peculiar malaria
to which this low country is supposed to be sub?
ject during the important planting season, and
the "broad paternal acres," those immense planta?
tions which among a few owners occupiod this sec?
tion, was not in tho way of its development under
the old regime. Because it was believed that the
"peculiar ii stitutioa" was acclimated, and proof
against a malana fatal to others, and it was con?
sidered th?t?he larger the estate in view of the in?
creado of labor, which was then capital, the more
prosperous the planter, and the State of which he
was a freeholder. There has been no more funda?
mental otiange wrought by the war than in the
agricultural interesta of this section. The faith
in a malarious and dangerous summ r, a
labor system disordered and impoverished
by the sudden realization of freedom, and
the necessities of the "original social com?
pact," and without capital to organise it, to?
gether with the extensive ownership of lands,
and our diseased political condition, have oxposed
capital to labor, politics to agrarianism, and dis?
couraged the emigrant, however uncomfortable
?et certain his status, or enterprising: his spirit,
'ho fertility of Berkely District, proximity to mar?
ket, easy settlement and present low pnce of its
acres invite emigration; while the malaria, division
into large tracts and unsettled political condition
forbid it. How in this to be remedied? Our
political condition is directed by principles of hu?
man nature: in tor?ate and government. " Nulla
vestioia relrorsum" may be the watchword of
revolution; but haman affairs will settle unto
themselves, like the sands of the ocean, uncon?
trolled, undisturbed and unsatisfied. The malaria
which vedo not deny can be neutralized by tho
advantages of posit iou. Tho seaboard of Bet keley
District to the Santee is skirted b7 & number of
islands, more or le3s healthy. About (25) twenty
five miles from Charleston, and nearly half way to
Santee, the Northeastern point of Dewee'e Is?
land, forms an island to itself, known as Lavender
Point. Enjoying a reputation for remarkable
health, for nearly a century, free from even the
ordinary fall fevers of the island, it has long boen
t io residence of planters on the opposite main,
and distinguished as the favorite resort of sport?
ing clubs and picnic port ea-offering all the re?
creation of a northern watering place, with a most
delightful climate, it is protected from the wash of
the tide.by an extensive reef, upon whioh the ocean
breaks and forms a beautiful bay in its front, while
a magnificent sound stretches away into several
bold creeks, leading to landings on the main about
two and a half miles dis .ant, and navigable at low
tide to craft drawing six i cot water. With mate?
rial on the spot, this Point, containing about (40)
forty ames of high land, well-wooded, and (75)
seventy-five of fine marsh, could be readily in?
closed with a concrete wall and palmetto supports
with a promenade on its graded height, a splen?
did shell drive around it, a wharf, bathing resorts
and other accommodations established, and with
ita lota and str.ets laid out, a flourishing village
be erected in the true interests of emigration. A
bridge or ferry could connect it with the neigh?
boring main and the p.autor or emigrant could
cross in the morning, attend to his planting inter?
est daring the .day, recross at night and w.,ilo
avoiding all danger of m daria in summer, improve
his hoallh and recuperate his energies by the
spores of the sea and every invigorating influence
of its atmosphere.
Li addition, it strikeB me a railroad might be
run to supply the d?ficiences of the Northeastern
Railroad, and, perhaps, connecting with it, from
the old landing on Cooper Biver, opposite Charles?
ton, along the seaboard in the direction of the
Georgetown road, through a level country abound?
ing in the finest timber up and along the Santoo,
commanding the whole trade of that most fertile
region, and placing it in easy communication with
Charleston. The extent of the road might bo, say
sixty miles, with a station opposite and connecting
with the ferry of the Island village, so that a jour?
ney to and from the village anl Charleston, or the
furthest planting interest on Santee, would be a
matter of a couple of hour a. Nor should wo for?
get the fine inlets making out to sea on both sides
of the Island, floating in process of time consider?
able tonnage.
The enterprise of this village, ferry, railroad
(md emigration might be carried out by a joint
stock company with the State as a shareholder.
The company could take advantage of the depre?
ciation of lands, eagerness to sell and buy up in
advance, at a nommai figure, two-thirds ot the
land through which too road would run, and all
the saleable lots on Mount Pleasant. An emigrant
tliip might bo enlisted in the exclusive service of
the company, the land divided into small farms of
Sj) fifty to (200) two hundred acres to accommo
te the means of tho Bottler, thoroughly settled
by a substantial population and resold at reasona?
ble prices, yet yielding on cost an enormous profit.
The days of largo pl an tations are over, and we aro
sternly admonished by tho agrarian necessities
and instincts of the hour. The present trade,
freight and travel, with the enhanced value of th .
land, would pay at once, while we may imagine the
constant increase in skilled industry and enter?
prise and the consequent trade, freight and t. avel
when this vaet icriile region, developed to its last
acre bv the bra n and muscio of tho sturdy emi?
grant, is made to bloom and blossom like a rose.
Imagine tho effect upon our "City by the Sea"
when tho energy, enterprise and emigration whioh
bas enriched the barren North, and enriches the
Weet, is exercised upon such a soil, blessed by
Providence, favored by nature, and nursing in its
bosom tho best elements of national prosper?
ity. It appears, that should this road be run,
a change of the present Mount Pleasant Ferry
to the nearest point on Cooper Biver oppo?
site the c ty and connecting with the Road would
be of much advantage ; creating a monopoly of
immense and increasing interest, and outside the
profits from the speculation in the real estate it?

Company, and leaving in its coffers a dividend of
its own ohoioe. In the civil, political and social
gloom following the disasters of the war, quaeque

there is no vital spark, but that of energy, enter?
prise and public spit it. Our redemption and pros?
perity consist in a ?t rling, thrifty, ingenious pop*
ulation whioh emigration alone must supply ; but
which it never will supply, so far as the richest por.
tion of the State is concerned, aa long as it is ex?
posed without shelter to a dangerous malaria and
embarrassed by difficulties bf means, transporta?
tion and settlement. To develope these ideas
fully would require a company with a capital of at
least one million of dollars, and if report be true
there are capitalists among us "nativo and to the
manor bom who, with or without the assistance
of tbe State, could organize and accomplish tho en?
terprise. And while we may bo astonished at tho
assurances of profitable private investment, we
cannot fail to observe the honorable public charac?

of oqr city, tho particular section it developcs, and
the wealth, power and general prosperity of the
State.
You will pardon something to these considera?

ble citizen for the weal of his State, if I havo tres

the energy and enterprise of the State in the line
of emigration I beg loave to placo these crude re?

[GENERAL ORDERS No. 25.]
It appears from sundry petitions and official repre?
sentations that the present scanty supply of toed in the
Carolinas is seriously dTminlahel by the large quantity
of grain consumed in numerous distilleries, put up and
worked in defiance of the revenue laws of the United
Hist?? ; it is reprea nted that few or none of the require?
ments of law are observed In any of these establishments ;
that thc officers of the internal revenue service, while
endeavoring to assess and collect the whiskey tax, are
frequently treated with disrespect, and sometimes
menaced with violence; and that when offenders are
prosect ted bi the civil courts, and violations of the in?
ternal ie venue laws indisputably proved. Juries adi to
convict the parties ; it ls further shown that this un?
lawful t-afflc makes food dearer in places where large
numbers are depending upon pubUc and private bounty;
that the Government ls, esldes, defrauded of a larg?
amount of revenue ; that the authority of irs civil officers
ls brought tote contempt ; and furthermore, that the
mischief complained of tends to Increase poverty, dis?
order and crime ; therefore, to the exercise of the au?
thority vested in the Commanding General, it is ordered
that
j. The distillation or manufacture of whiskey or other
spirits from grain, ls prohibited m this Military District
Any person ao engaged o ? employed wiU be deemed guil?
ty of am isdemeanor. The po session of a still, or other
apparatus for this purpose, will be considered presump?
tive evidence of a violation of the Revenue Laws, and the
party or parties using the same, or on whoso premia. s,
or in whoso possession the same may be found, wUl be
arrested and brought to trial before a military tribunal
composed of the Commanding O ccer of the Post and
two officers of the army, next in rank on duty within the
territorial limits of the Post Ii the exigencies of the
service do not permit the detail of other office?, that
fact wUl be duly certified and the Post Commander will
bear and determine the case.
IL The penalties, punishments and forfeitures pre?
scribed by the severaf acts of Congress for distilling or
manufacturing whiskey or other spirits io violation of
the revenue laws will be imposed and executed by the
military tribunals hereby authorized,
UL No sentence extending to imprisonment, forfeiture

fine or other penalty wiU be carried toto effect until re?
ported to these Headquarters and approved by the Com?
