The Crops of 1867.
It is yet too early to make anything like
accurate calculations as to tho amount of tne
crops of tins season. The effect of the drought
on the Western corn and of the anny worm on the
Southern Cotton is yet very uncertain. A rough
guess may, however, bo made, which will give
some general idea of ho amount of our agricul?
tural products. Something of this kind we 'Ind in
the Boston Commercial Bulletin, which is ordinari?
ly very well informed on such subj ects. It com?
piles the following table :
CROPS IN I860. i ESTIMATED CHOPS IN 18C7.
Cotton, bales.... 4.C7G.000 Cotton, . uah... 2,5.0,000

According to this table, our agricultural pro?
ducts will be about forty per cent, greater than in
the very prosperous season or 1860. If we com
{are values, the result is Btill moro favorable to
867. Tho greatest advance, of course, has been
m the price of cottou, but uearlv all tho more im?
portant products sell for more now than in 18W).
even on a gold basis, lu spite of protracted rains
on the Atlantic slope, of tho army worm in thc
Southern States, of drv weather tn the interior,
and of the disturbed and unsettled condition of
ten States, we are Mossed with a yield ot the great
staples which will prevent lamine and serious
suffering during the coming season in the South?
ern States, and will make the more prosperous
States in the North and West better able to meet
the burdens of an unnecessarily oppressive tax?

RAIN.-We have been visited in tho last two
weeks by copious and protracted rains-winch
have sobbed the earth and given a mid-winter ap?
pearance to the streets and roads. It will not
affect the corn crop, but it is feared will be injuri?
ons to the cotton.-Fairfield Herald.
ON THE WING.
TUE FORTIFICATIONS OK CHARLESTON-THE APPEAB
ANCE OF THE COUNTRY-THE CROPS-COLUMBIA,
HEB IMPROVEMENTS, ETC., ETC.
Oa leaving Charleston the first object that
catches tho eye, after the few straggling housos in
the suburbs arc passed, is the fortifications on tho
Neck, known bettor, perhaps, aa the Line?. Those
who remember their neat and military appearance
when first erected, tho closely-paved earth and
smoothiy-shavod grass, would hardly recognize
tho misshapen masses that now occupy their
place. The plough has passed over the land, and
scarcely a vestige of the engineering skill that
framed and. superintended tho construction of
those battories is now visible. The moat is dry
and full of rank vegetation, while the batteries,
bombproofs, traverses, ?fcc, are all with verdure
clad. Instead of tbe frowning heights that once
defied tho invader, aro now to be seen green
slopes, where tho wormy grain his scaled the
works-oven planted its banner on tho outer walls.
The utilitarianism of the present day has changed
the tented field to a cabbage bed, and trained the
potato and tho squash to grow where formerly
"the sentry walked his lonely round." This is a
world of change, but old Father Time works
bilently, and it is seldom that such strides are
made as those visible on the fortifications.
But the iron horse is still speeding, and though
its swiftness is not remarkable, it moves with
sufficient celerity to make the trees glide by and
relieve the country of that monotony always to be
seen in a pine barron. The plantations ou the
road are few and far between, and often for miles,
as far as the prospect extends, there is but the
same stretch of pine, relieved only hero and there
by some swamp, which shows the different hue of
tho cypress. If a country could be judged by its
appearance as seen from a car window, there
would bo few who would "sigh for the land of the
cypress and pine;" for, in its primitive state, it
oilers but little attraction to a settler. These
lands, though not unaptly called pine bairens, are,
however, capable of groat improvement, and, by a
proper system of drainage and cultivation, can be
made extremely productive. They are the waste
places that are to be made glad, and the time is not
far distant when the plough and the hoe will be
employed to develop the resources of the soil.
Everywhere throughout the country tho same
unprecedented rains have boen experienced; the
low lands are saturated, and in the woods the
water has remained on the ground until small
ponds are formed. Most of the plantations have
been protected by drains, and tho damage to tho
crops has been comparatively slight, though the
I'cotton will be delayed several weeks as but few
bolls are opened. No complaint of the worm was
heard in the up-country, but tho experienced
planters feared that the crop would be diminished
at least ono quarter by the action of the rains.
The cotton seen from the cars, and in the planta?
tions visited, appeared to be strong and healthy: it
.wes not over three foet high, except in places that
had been well manured where it grew moro vigo?
rously, and some was spoken of that was nearly
seven feet high. The scrubby cotton is generally
considered the most prolific, as the strength of
the plant is developed in the increased number of
bolls, and is not wasted in long stalks which yield
but Little fruit.
Along the whole line of the railroad tho effects
of the rain are noticeable, but particularly in the
swelled water courses, which bound madly along
as if exalting in their strength. The Congaree
Ki vor and the smaller streams that are crossed by
the railroad are booming, and in some cases their
banks are completely hidden by the water. No
freshets are reported cn this route, bat in other
sections of the country there arc rumors of bridges
being swept away by the rise. A short distanco
from Kingsville, and a few hundred yards from the
railroad, is Stony Hi" Pnmtauuu, uow being cul
tiTatrd <ry iTi. H. L. JEFFERS, WllO Wail OI1? Of the
prime mo. ors in the barbecue givenjn that section
last week. Kir. JEFFERS has a model plantation,
and though not employing more than thirty-five
to forty hands, his fields show tho result of care,
and promise an abundant harvest. On the plan?
tation is a school for the benefit of the freedmen,
which is taught by a colored woman from Charles?
ton. Great interest is taken in the cause of edu?
cation, and the attendance is regular. The ne?
groes ore hired by ths month for money wages,
which has been thought better than the contract
system, while the school is an outside enterprise,
aud is furnished at the expense of Mr. JEFFERS.
JOINER'S, or the National Hotel, at Co?

ed tor the purpose, and situated near
the Depots of th?vGreenville and Charleston
Railroads. It is under tho control pf Mr. B.
JOINER, and the weary traveller is at once mado t.q

even- respect for the accommodation of its guests.
Although Columbia ie not a land flowing with milk
and honey, the change to country fare is very re?
freshing, while the pure air, clear wp ter and ab?
sence of mosquitoes aro proofs that the seaboard
has been left some distanco behind.
Columbia still shows the ravagos of SHERMAN'S
soldiery, and though Bomb improvements have
been made and somo boasea rebuilt, the gap
caused by tho burnt district is almost the samo.
The first sign of Lifo on approaching the place is
thc animation displayed by tho backmon at the
Depot, they make the air vocal with their cries of
this way for Nickerson's, Joiner's, The Nations)
Hotel, Shiver House, ?c., each of them promis?
ing to take the passenger to his Hotel, without
any extra charge. As the hackmeu of Columbia
are a numerous body it appears singular that they
should convey their passengers to and from the
Depot free of charge, but it is even so, each Holsl
.strives for the mastery,and this plan being Btarted
by ono was soon made general, much to tho satis
isfaction of travellers who thereby save their
greenbacks,
Astroll through the streets of Columbia dc
monstates the fact that the people have not been
idle, new buildings have been erected, and from
the bustle and enterprise exhibited, tuoy evident?
ly expect a good business season. Tho large white
budding at the corner of Main and Bridge streets,
known as BEDELL'S, is now occupied by that
merchant, and tho large si oro on the drst floor is
stocked with every variety of dry goods, Mr. C.
A. BEDELL is an old merchant of Columbia, and,
though one of the hoaviest sufferors by SHERMAN'S
raid, has displayed a degree of energy that has
caused him to rise shove his misfortunes.
Higher up Main Bireet the same activity has
been shown, and several huge stores aro now in
procese ol erection. These are liuoly finished with
iron fr onts, and when completed will bo among the
ornaments of the city, The merchants of Colum?
bia do not complain of inactivity, and though tho
trade is by no means brisk the formers and treed -
mon from the country are continually visiting the
city to purchase some indispensable article Mi-.
C. F. JACKSON, woU known to the Charleston pub?
lic, has a fine store on Main street, and disposes of
his dry goods with tho same urbanity (hat marked
his career on King street in days gone by.
The Phoenix is still tho bird of Columbia, and
exercises, under the control of friend SELBY, almost
as much influence as the famed United States
Eagle. It carries the news to every household,
and like Noah's dove, brings a green back to its
master. Born from the ashes of Columbia, tho
Phoenix is connected with tho city by ties that are
inseparable, and if it keeps pace with the march
of progress now prevalent, will soon beco.nc one
of the most influential dailies in tho State.
Notwithstanding the fiery ordeal through which
Columbia has passed, her people have displayed a
degree of energy and activity that render the re?
construction of tho city but a maltor of time. Tho
progress alroady made is a proof that they aro
determined to bo up and doing, whilo other im?
provements arc contemplated that will even make
the Capitol of tho State wuat she was before the
torch was applied.
THE AUGUSTA CONSTITUTIONALIST.is getting un?
easy. It is afraid other and younger anti-recon
structionist journals will carry away tho Laurels
which of right belong to it. It says : "Many joui
nala now equal or surpass us in denunciation of
the wrong, and we can afford to seo theao Iresh
battalions rush pell-mell into tho fray and teven go
a length beyond us in the charge. It is no moro
than lair that they should have a chance to ex?
hibit their zeal and robustitude. Be this as it
may, theso new recruits can never out-rival an old
combatant in fervor and keen appreciation of pro?
fessional respect.
The Washington Star says : "The chances of
General WARD H. LAMON, late District Marshal,
ate fcaid to be exceedingly good for tho Postmaster
Generalship, should there be a chango there.
LETTER FROM THE COAST.
[l'KOM OUK OWN COBBE8POXDENT.]
JOHN'S ISLAND, S. C., August 27.
Editor Charleston Daily News:
Tho fame of MORRISON has roached us. N<
through the medium of the newspaper-for thi
convenient commodity is scarcely ever seen c
the Island-but borne on the wings of the whii
perin? winds. Originals like tho zealous M. ai
not altogether confined to the limits of your firi
gapped city ; they are scattered all over this broa
land, only awaiting opportunities to draw thei
out. "No Jacks here I" for instance, has passe
into a by-word with us of this lonely isle, and i
made use of on every occasion, in season and ot
of it, varied only now and then by the more mi
sical, "No Neds now." I suppose, like other foo
ie h snatches of speech, they will have their da)
Who does net remember "bully boy with tho glas
eye," of years ago, and other notions of an equal!
senseless stamp ? "Bully" is still kicking, and th
next lexicographer will have to furnish a standar
definition for it.
The occasion that brought these first montioue
sayings to life, dates from tho days of regist rat io:
on the Island. The aspiring citizen, announcinj
it as his well weighed intention to be knowi
henceforth and forever after under tho pithy ap
pellation of Jack Joyfoot, was instantly lowerei
in his lofty design, before he could get the cogno
men half out, by a stentorian, "No Jacks here !
And if ever a republican brother desired to flgur
in the annals of his country's history as Mr. Net
Mixworth, he was sure to be woefully annihilate*
by a deprecating and awe-inspiring, "No Ned
now!" The poor Jacks, and Joes, and Ned
seemed certainly sadly discomfitted, and wen
a most wretched looking set of citizen;
indeed. All Harrys were ruthlessly swept fron
tho face of nature, and the Toneys banished th
earth. The Taffeys just managed to pass the try
ing ordeal. For it was concluded, that, a mai
being christened Tarley-as all Taffeys were ant
they knew it, being present at the time-and n<
other name being available without researches ii
profane history, why, Tarley would do, the Taf
foys might pass, and the Taffeys came off tri
umphant. And lastly, on this head, will all Africi
hereby take notice that if some heir of a kingdom
province, dukedom, military district, town, villi
or plantation, in those miasmatic regions is so
journing among us, his identity, registered
might be affected by this manipula, n of uamet
of which Congress; has not taken -P action
neither is there any record in the nar:.* 1 arch i vet
thereof.
Another week of almost incessant ti hat
passed, leaving the roads in tho lower \ ts ol
the island in a most wretched condition, wii.iout
bridges and in many instances converted inte
water courses. The very scanty drainage of the
plantations begins to tell on the fields. Many ol
the cotton plants in the bottom lands are cither
entirely ruined, or run up into red-shanked and
bare umbrella cottons, plants which boar a sparse
fruit close to the top. The best cotton fields, under
tho old and thorough system of working, are fast
becoming wastes and fever swamps for want ol
drainage. Too much land is skipped over or
merely scratched ; the work on the cotton lands
and in fact all lands, in many cases, was not began
early enough, owing in a great degree to the tardi?
ness of owners, to be candid, in making oontraots,
and lacks the close attention to detail to put
it in condition to produce. Fertilizers are
not known here. The rioh marsh ma?
nure, which only requires to be moved a short dis?
tance, has not been made use of. Two of the natu?
ral advantages of the island have been turned to Ac?
count. The heavy June rains injured our cotton to
a very limited extent. Some of the most forward
fields show a mik v to be sure, but a good deal of
that must be laid to the grasa, which, not being
removed in time, burned the cotton and destroyed
tho lower loaves as well as fruit. Passing along
the high road, I noticed that in ono field out of
three the grass is at odds with the cotton. In?
telligent and industrious colored men will point
you out particular fields on every plantation,
neglected and run to grass, as belonging to bad
niggers, as they have it. They say these drones
refuse to be advised, and preter running to town
and tp speeches to boeing their fields. I myself
have met those that argued that grass had noth?
ing whatever to do with the prosperity of the cot?
ton plant, and that the only reason why it was
kept out of tho land was to make it look more
"deastant." I have to encounter tho colored man
yet, who, in his own opinion, did not know all
about plantation work and management, or whose
crop was not the best. Yet it needs only the use
of one's uyos to be satisfied of the contrary. The
so-called foremen on the places are hated accord?
ing to their attempts, at advice and suggestions.
Evory man seems ready with sorno twisted idea of
tho Bureau to defend his right to do things innis
own slouchy way; and if tho coming winter and
spring will show that the colored people of John's
feland need the assistance of Northern benevo?
lence as much SB ever, the question as to the use?
fulness of that institution will be seriously asked.
Unjust and unreasonable as the old system of
labor has been, we have, since cutting loose from
it, seep nothing but a helpless drifting into au
irregular .und unstable channel. The colored
man's idea of the necessity qf work is in many in?
stances confined to the raising of com and sweet
potatoes. In spite of contracts, he, on this island,
is Badly remiss ii) the thorough culture of bis cot?
ton fields, even where no excuse for lack of provi?
sions can bo advanced.
There is a general and eager inquiry as to tho
rate of interest at which capital might be bad on
the admission (probable; of the State in the
Union, and if there is any likelihood of its finding
its way southward in time to benefit tho planting
interest. The alarming per centage now charged
is nothing short of ruinous. And although tho
Wealthy planter of the lowland i was mulot in no
inconsiderable amount a in former days for lack of
proper business qualification and application, tho
present rato of interest, the extreme scarcity of
money, and the consequent tardiness of factor and
grocer in town, begin to open his oyes to the
moving causes of all thin, The New York and
foreign money articles are closely scanned, and
the question asked if money is to be had at tho
North at 4 and 5 per cent., and is actually glutting
tho European markets, being refused at Amster?
dam at Hi, and oven lower, what reasons exist to
make it so scaroe hero, where millions of dollars
in real estate are ready to be pledged for its highly
remunerative use. Wo can raise that which both
the North and Europe, those two pursy capitalists,
eagerly want. Will they not, in their own inter?
est, supply us the means to raise it ? Will they
not relax thoir unfounded suapioions of foul deal?
ings ? Willing to pay a round rato of interest, wo
want money, when we know we can turn it to good
account-that is. next winter. And now ia the
timo to say it. Labor billa will have to be mot
with cash. The freedman will be In a position to
demand that. Having made his own corn-at
least enough to last him till high summer-tho
banker will have to step in i.istoadof tho grocor.
Labor will want to buy its own provisions, and
your supply stores will bo deserted.
Tho proverbial improvident of thc nocro will
demaud thc means of investments other than for
the necessaries of life. Tho thing which paid your
labor this season he has. Perhaps, late in tho anni*
mer or at cotton picking time, he will be ready to
return to thia year's system again, and exchange
meal for muscle; but so long na his corn and pota?
toes keep him from want, II?B labor can only bo
had for money. A long credit- at your morohant's
store will do your work no longer. Monoy, there
lore, must be mado to sock our cities, mado acces?
sible to tho industrial interests, and tho now
creaky grooves of industry will soon wear smooth
and sing the pleasant songs of prosperity,
Thore is a wild cry of caterpillar from one ond
of the ialand to tho other. Three weeks ago we
were similarly regaled. An old planter, and gallant
officer in the defenco of this neighborhood, was
so much deceived then by rumors coming in thick,
fast and furious upon bini, that he offered to hot
on their being in his own field, although he had
not soen them there. Recollecting in Beason, how?
ever, that lie might compromiso Ilia standing in
church, he did not commit himself, and saved both
reputation and money. The laugh was against
him then; to-day I found in his field a thousand
growing cotton worms. On my way home I turned
into several fields, and saw with dismay the unre?
lenting work of these hungry insects. Fields that
were a standing exception to the reigning rule of in?
dolence, are fast going to destruction. One day suf?
fices to turn them.prosperouB and promising.into on
' unsightly collection of grayish, green skeletons.
It makes one's heart sore to lookjat it. Riding into
I
another field whore thor ravagos aro jUBt begin?
ning, Inoticod that theo domor.8 seem to rally as
for mutual protection gainst an attack in round
columns-say in circunferonoo ten to fifteen foot.
They seem to movo togther as by concert, throw?
ing out their skirmishes as we human half-de?
mons did three years gno by. Wherever they gu
their work is done on? too thoroughly, leaving
nothing but bare Btalkand ribs of foliage in their
track.
What & wail will ther go up from the Soutll ?f
this plague is wide-sprad. How unfit an accom?
paniment to the joyou/sonnis 0f the bells of tho
Northern thanksgiving day. Little did I dream
when I commenced teso jottings that 1 could
stand out against the uiversal report no longer.
I was an unbeliever, bw my conviction is made
doubly sure by the sig! of tho caterpillar in its
different stages of deviopmciit before me. The
shiny black cocoon, tree tho length of a cotton
seed, already clings tone leaf with characteristic
tenacity. From it a mall green worm is born,
beautifuliy marked wii black and white spots.
As it gains itsfull grown, these spots only remain
to decorato a yellowislsrripo, a sixteenth of an
inch wide on each side f the caterpillar, while a
deep black band runs own its back, intersected
lengthwise by exquisitewbito stripes, one, a very
fine silky one, being exstly in tho oentre. Thero
aro five or these dolioafly interlacing linoa alto?
gether-two coarser ont on each side being close
together in pairs, and tb fifth one equally diatunt
from the others, and in te middle. Experienced
islanders can tell their psonce in a field by the
faint honey smell wbici they diffuse. And this
exceedingly handsome orm is the rapacious de?
stroyer of a whole yes's anxious shifting and
work. Can Professor IOASSIZ explain how far
its beauty makes up foche immeasurable depth
