Thou only hast stepped unaware Malice not one can impute; And why should a heirt have been there In the wa: of a fair woman's loot * lt was no', a stone that could trip, Nor was it a them that could rend : Put un thy proud underlip, .Twas merely the heart of a friend. And yet peradventure one dav Thou, sitting alone at the glass, Remarking the bloom gone away, Where the smile in its dimplement was. And seeking around thee in vain, From hundreds who flattered before, Such a word as "Oh!" not in the main, Do I hold thee less precious, but more.

Dr. Lartigue. in tbe Sentinel, urges the for? mation, of county co-operation societies. He contemplates that their plan of operations shall go further than merely to supply tne immedi? ate wants of the stockholders. He thinks such establishments should be localed in every centre of trade, no matter whether trade is great or Bmall, and that the scheme should embrace the idea of controlling tho salo of the cotton crops in the future,-by concert of action, through associations of fchis character.

Oa the 24th ult., a negro man was found dead on the Union Road, about three miles from Laurens ville. The body lay twenty or thirty yards from the road m the pines. It was accidentally discovered by a traveller on the highway. On the 25th, Coroner Nabers held au inquest. No signs of violence were found, and the appearance of the body indica ted that death had occurred some eight or ten days previous to the investigation. Tho jury found that the man came to his death by the "visitation of God.'' He was not identified.

Union. The neighborhood of Wilkinsville was a little excited last week because a bale cf cotton was stolen, and by men above suspicion. Two white men were the principals-three negroes the tools. The cotton has been found, the white men have fied, and the negroes are in jail. Information was voluntarily given by ne . trroes not concerned, which led to the detec? tion. The movement for a new county progresses. The committee met last week to prepare and forward the application to the Legislature. It j is proposed to cut off portions of Spartauburg, York and Union.

Wagons have thronged our street? with cotton, and country produce of all sorts, imparting a brisk business appearance to all departments of trade. Tho colored hands upon one of the largest plantations in this county called upon the owner 03 last Saturday, and made the proposi? tion of their own accord, that if he would con? tinue them the ensuing year that they would wash their hands of radicalism in the future. This was unexpected to the employer, but be - told them that ne bad formed the determina? tion sometime since to look more to his own interest in the future; that be could no longer five employment to those operating against nie interests-in other words, he could no longer keep an enemy in his family. Wo wilt here state that the gentleman alluded to above is not an extreme man in bis views on any question, political or otherwise. Oconee. Oconee Station was sold on the first instant by the United States Deputy Marshal. The tract contains some six or seven hundred acres, a part of which is good bottom land. Colonel J. J. Norton was the purchaser, at $320, cash. The Keowee Courier is informed that Presi? dent Harrison has been successful in raising the funds necessary for the completion of the road. A re-estimate of the work, now incom? plete, is to take place in a short time. The Presbyterian residents held a meeting in the Methodist Churcb on Saturday, for the purpose of organizing a Presbyterian Church m Walhalla. Rev. A. Morse and Dr. McNeil Turner, of Abbeville, were expected to preach on the occasion. The Germans in Walhalla ore evidently "pushing things." The latest reports from that thriving town are that the buildings of the Lutheran College, recently transferred from Newberry to Walhalla, will be completed in June; that they are to bave a factory, propelled by steam, very soon in operation, and that they have a theatre.

There has since" been a decline in the article, and drovers are now tryinrr to 6ell at 10.

SAVANNAH, December 3-COTTON.-Sicce the close of our last report the cotton market has had a gradual hardening tendency in prices; buyers ope rating principally for foreign markets, and taking such lots as were on'.-red at reasonable figures, but on Wednesday the Livcrpo 1 market showed indica? tions of lower prices, which was confirmed by tete grams received on Thursday from that port g. vine a tull farthing decline with a dull and droopiug mar? ket. Our market, consequently, closed very quiet yesterday, buyers holding off unless when heavy concessions were made on thc gcner.il asking prices. We quote the market irregular: Middling 23%; low middliug 23; good ordinary 22%. We give the following resume of the week: Fnday-Market oponed quiet, but at the same time showing evidence of weakness-buvers operating only when first class middling could he bought at 24c; market closed weak though not quotably lower.

Holders seem to meet thc views of buyers in many transactions ; offering stock not so good as it has been-lower graaes much neglected. We quote middling at 23%c. Sales 1130 bales. Thursday-Thc market opened quiet. The ac? count from Liverpool showing a dull market has given lower prices here-buyers operating only wben concessions are made.
