THE DAILY NEWS. Between th? dawning and ths fifty. Before the rising of the lark. Tho May-bloom glistened in the dark; And all the land in shadow lay Between the dawning and tho day. Between tho dawning and the day. The wet wild flowers in thine hair Shed a soft ralu of honey there; I stooped to kiss the drops away Between the dawning sud the day. Between the dawning and the day, The wind fell and the thunder ceased, The red light came up from tho east, As my dear Tove a ayiuR lay Betwoen the dawning and the day. Between the dawning and the day, I knew the silence was not sleep, But death-and yet I could not weep ; I could not eren kneel and pray Between the dawning and tbo day. But when the bloom is on the May, And scent from wet wild flowers rare Come floating on the twill ?itt air: Ahl sweetest lace ind fragrant hair 1 My bitter te irs dry not away I Between the dawning and the day.

A special train from Greenwood brought np the planters along tho line of the railroad, whilst some of the best men from every section ot Savannah and Saluda aides of the districts came up to testify to the awaken? ed interest which our citizens generally are manifesting in the cause ot agricultural pro? gress. To show the interest which has been aroused we may mention that one of our citi? zens walked eight miles, sooner than stop a plough or fail to atteud.

Guano everywhere taints the air. Dickson's ideas of deep plough? ing, ?tc., yon hear st every turn. Evidently a new era dawns in agriculture.

Buyers, influenaed by late decline la kurope, have demanded a concession, and in some oases have picked up cheap lot?, but tho gene? ral disposition seems to be to await a more active demand before selling.
