LONDON, Joly 9.-The action of tho Lords ou the Irish bill creates intense excitement. Bright and Gladstone answer evasively to let? ters urging a recommencement of the reform league agitation. The hope is expressed that the Lords will ultimately yield. THE GOVERNMENTAL CHANGES IN FRANCE. PARIS, July 9.-The political combination continues. The Emperor bas decided to give way to tho Chamber and change the system of government. THE PRESS ON THE ATTIT?DE OF THE LOUDS ON THE CHUB CH BILL. ./ LONDON, July 8.-The Daily News (Liberal) has an ?diterai on the proceedings ia the House of Lords last evening. Tho writer says the Irish Church bill will leave the Ho ase of Lords with a very different character from wbioh it entered and much loss acceptable to the country. It will be quite impossible for the House ?rvSSmmons to accept the amend? ments made by the peers, and will ba their duty te res toro the bill in its original form. The Lords have done their best to spoil the measure they prudently abstained from reject? ing, and the Commons must trans Form th , de? formed. The TimeB says: "By their last act the House of Lords have completed the transfor? mation of ? ministerial scheme. They have refused, by ^ majority of seventy, to approve the olause appropriating the surplus funds of the Church, ami have preferred to reserve the question for future consideration. The mean? ing of this vote is not obscuro. The Dake of Argyle condemned it by anticipation as an at? tempt to reveise the vote by which the Dake of Cleveland's amendment proposing concurrent endowment was rejected; and although we agree with the Marquis of Salisbury that Lord Cairns can scarcely have provision for resi? dences of Catbolio priests at heart, we must acknowledge the justice of the Duke of Ar gyle's general conclusion that the vote un? questionably reverses in spirit if not in form the decision against the Duke of Cleveland's scheme." The Times believes the country is ready and willing ti support the grant for ec? clesiastical residences to Catholics and Pres Iryteriune. If the opportunity to make it is re? jected it will be because the governing powers, unable lo rise above the catchwords of party, dare not look openly and courageously at the truth. HOHENLOHE AND THE (ECUMENICAL COUNCIL. MUNICH, July 9.--Prime Minister Hohenlohe hos adc reseed a circular to foreign powers ou the Ocumenical Council. He warns the gov? ernments of the principal dangers which they ought to guard against, and particularizes the decision whioh the Council may announce in regard to ihe infallibility of the Pope, the dispo? sition it may make of the question of church pro? per ly, and other points likely to come up of au essentially political character. He believes all States having Catholic subjects are intimately concerned in the proceedings of the Council, and ought to take a common attitude. He sug? gests that it might be well for these powers to hold a conference, and not leave the Coan ^SUJUto^bt of their position in"re?ftrxL Ux-4te. decisions. NFWS FROM WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, July 9. -Grant has expressed to several gentlemen his satisfaction at the result, and gratification at the peacefulness cf the Virginia elections. The proclamation for the Mississippi and Texas elections is expected to-day. Generals Ames and Reynolds will be instructed against partiality toward either party in the prelimi? naries to the election. Georgians here are urging Ihe establish? ment of an asylumn for the aged and infirm neg io cs of that State, to be partially supported by the government. It is stated that Howard supports tho scheme. The Cubans here ridicule the reported captare of their powder mill at Vagua. They say the patriots haye no powder mill. Tbe Secretary of War to-day issued an order transferring the laboratory building at Macon, Georgia, to the State Agricultural Society until the 1st January next. Minister Motley, it is ascertained, has so far neither made or received any proposition in regard to the Alabama claims. The President has given assurances that the administration will be perfectly impartial in thc sppicachiug contest in Mississippi, and will insist that tbe military authorities shall be impartial also. Evart freely expresses the opinion that Mis? sissippi and Texas will follow tho lead* of the Old Domiuion. The election in Mississippi will probably not occur aatil the fourth Tuesday in "-November. This will throw this election after ? tho contests io Pennsylvania and Ohio. No Pthing bas transpired regarding the Texas election, bat it is thought that it will bs Axed for a period equally remote.

C., July 3.-The mercury haeranged from eighty to ninety-six degrees in the shade for the past thirty days. This warm weather bas worked well for cotton and other vegetation generally. Cotton is at least len days earlier than this time last year. We generally have, during tho month of Juno, the past years a cool spoil of weather lasting from three to five days, and frequently longer, but the past month we had no cool weather, having bad all ib the month of Blay, and at one time. Now ibis regular weather, 'of the right temperature, bas caused cotton to grow rap? idly up to the present time, and to form we ll. 80 the cotton crop in our county at this time ia all that we conld desire, and bids fair for a large yield, even double what it was this time last year, especially where fertilizers have boen used extensively. I have seen much cot? ton two feet high full of blooms and iorme. The seventy-five aore field, with the ton tons of fertilizers upon it, noted to y JU in my last letter on 2d ot June, looks now as if it would even make more tl an tbe one hundred bales, as everything has been favorable. I note another field of one hundred and fifty acres in cotton, lying near the Columbia and Augusta Railroad, in that portion ot our county known as the "Ridge," being a litt le mixed with sand, and having bad pu; upon it the present year about tit teen tooB of fertilizers, b:ds fair for one hundred and twenty-five bales, and may go one hundred and fifty bales, with everything to favor it for the uext ninety days. Now to think, forty years ago. these same lauds could bave .been bought for fifty cents per aero, and the one hundred and fifty acres would not have made, wituoui fertilizers, fi tty bales of cotton. Now this goes to show what fertilizers have done for different portions of our county, and should speak trumpet-tongued to us to hold on to our cheap lands a little longer. Our corn crop b da fair also for a good yield, but within tbe past month corn has been somewhat neglected in tho quantity of work it should have bad, as tba last rise in cotton bas mostly caused this neglect in giving tbe extra time to cottou; and what astonishes me, it still continues co advance; but I suppose the ohec t will come, at least by tbe 20th of August next, as new cotton will be in market by mat time. Tbe graiu crop has been housed in excellent order, and will prove a large yield of both wheat and oats, but not much of the former has beon prepared SB vet for market, &s tho labor in the farm cou lu oot be spared tor the thrashing of grain, only in small quantities for immediate use. Bot luis month of bard labor wul give the laborer a respite, and with it time to attend to minor business. The fruit and watermelon season is just opening with us. The peach crop will be very small in tbe upper portion of the county, but in the sandy portion there will ba a good supply. Apples will he more abnndunt. Our great watermelon crower. Ha uuel Marsh, notable in the history of Edgefield for the past thirty years, as being one of tbe best melon growers in the county, has, tbe piesent year, concluded to divide niB ciop, putting half in cotton aud balf in melons, thinking that it would pay as well. Mr. Marsh bas taken tbe premium" lor bis Hue melons for a number of years past in this county. Negro labor is much botter than the past year, and will continue to improve should our State-ruling power keep quiet and let the negro alone. What we need in Edgefle'd at this time isa railroad directly from Aiken to Edgefield Court? house, and from here to Newmarket, in Abbe? ville, to intersect the Columbia and Greenville Bailroad at this point, or at Ninety 8ix Depot, whioh is a few miles below Newmarket, as nitJier nineo will sait- Edgefield, and go far to build her up andadd thousand* of dollars to her real estate. What say you to it? The nearest point thal any railroad runs to Edge field is the Columbia and Angosta, whiob runs within six miles of the village, viz: the Pine House Station. At this place all tbe mailab:e matter is carried daily now ,jnatcommeuoed by a hack, once every day and back, carrying at the same time the passengers. So we have now jnst commenced a daily mail the first of this month, together with a new postmaster by tbe name of Qrice, white. The ex-postmaster, tbe Bev. Mr. Walker, has served the people faith? fully and satisfactorily tor the past three yeaiB. Mr. Walker ia from Beaufort, came up during the war, and bas made many warm friends, and ia a gentleman in every sense of the word. This daily rr ail will no doubt in? crease the number of your subscribers in this part of tbe State, and ie just the thiog needed months ago. We have now a complete list of new county officers, all in their places and working harmo? niously together, even down to Mr. Eichelber? ger, the census taker, who has hts Bubs in tbe different townships at work. I thought they wonld make an enrollment of the men at the same time, but 1 hear not. And perhaps it is as well. Our village can boast or several dif? ferent religious denominations, all prosperous and thnviucr and well represented, with good and talented preachers. Tbe Baptist Church has recently called a young graduate from Greenville. 8. C., viz: the Bev. Mr. Broaddna. who is spoken of in the highest terms. Al? though quite yoong, he knows his work and does it well. The Rav. Mr. Killgo, of tbe Me*hodist persuasion, is another mau that Troika hard und well, and bas the good will of all denominations, and 1 have bad tho pleasure of hearing bim. The Bev. Mr. Walker, of tbe Episcopal persuasion, wbo al..ays woars a Eleasing countenance, an J generally leaves his oarer;; in the same mood, having a winning expression. Our village bas excellent schools, both male and female, which ha-, just closed for the summer vacation. Tours, &c, _ _ _SENEX. THE CHARLOTTE COLUMBIA AND AUGUSTA (CONSOLIDATED) RAIL?

C., July 7, 1869-The 27th June being the end of the session oi Newberry College, situated at this placo, and of which Rev. Professor J. P. Smeetzor is president, a publio examination of the several classes was held. The examination was largely attended by the citizens, and alt were fully satisfied that both teacher and pupil had done well, and deserved great credit. The order of exercises was as follows: . Baccalaureate address by tho president, June 27. Examining Collegs Department, June 28. Examining Preparatory Department, June 29. Exhibition Diagnotbian Sooiety, Juue 29, evening. Exhibition Junior Class, June SQ, evening. Conferring Degrees, July 1st. The exercises of Dtagnothian Society were opened with pra\ er by Rev. W. S.

The Primary Department also did well. In faot everything proved satisfactory, and it could be seen that the teacher had not been idle. We up here in the mountains forgot alto? gether about tho 4th of July, nat that we are so disloyal as not to pay any attention to it, for we have a few of the loyal sort amongst us; but this man. Colonel Ames, with his circus and the elephants came along, and showed his porformances for seventy-five cents a piece, so you see that kept the 4th of Joly from our mi .ds. Everybody was talking about tbe "big show" two weeks before it came, and we could not think about anything else, or we might have bad a big speech, barbecue or some other kind of a burrah. The circus drew a very large crowd, and notwrtnstanding the high taxes, bard times and scarcity of oom, the crowd of colored folks was I irger than at any time sinoe tho Union came in. We are beginning to suffer for rain. A good shower would bring out corn and cotton very much. Cora is wort h at present one dollar and thirty-five cents per bushel. E. THE LIVE STOCK QUESTION. Our Prospecta for Meat-The Destruc? tion of Cattle and H?ge by Negroes A Serious Matter for the Consideration ot our People. FFEOM AN OCCASIONAL CORBESPONDKNT. ] FAIRMOUNT PLANTATION, BARNWELL COUNTY, Inly 7.- Ehe numerous correspondents of your admirably conducted journal keep you so well informed as to the condition and prospect ot She crops of com and cotton, I shall say but it tie about them. They look very well here it present and promise a fair yield, provided :lie seasons continue to hold out, and if we ;an prevent the negroes from stealing cotton ?s much as they did last ye tr- first by bas ietfulls and then by whole bales-we shall oe able, perhaps, to gather a reasonable tmouut, according to the number ot acres planted. It is too early, however, to predict naen with regari to cotton, it being liable to ' io many contingencies between now and frost. Tho cattle and bog orops deserve, I think, nore notice than they receive, and I wish to lirect particular attention to the subject of 1 itock killing-the destruction of cattle and aogs by negroes. ^ It is weil known that baforo the war, when the negroes were under guardianship and con- ' roi, cattle and hogs were raised in abundance * in South Carolina, and no planter or farmer who managed properly, except in a few locali- 1 Lies, ever bad to buy beef, mutton or bacon; ' tnd from the section of country where 1 reside, 1 Hie surplus of cattle raised was sent in droves ( ,o the Charleston market. Bat since freedom 1 ias given the negroes better opportunities for ( stealing and gratifying their animal propensi? ties, it is imponible, except in a few neighbor ?oods, to raise even a tithe of what is needed 'or home consumption. If the predatory hab? ?a %.t the negroes did not keep constantly xe- * lacing tbe stack, th**ir natural increase, in this i jection, would in the course of a few years be mffioiont to supply the whole t? ta ie; the price - if beet and pork would go down BO low that my freedman, with ordinary industry, wcnld 1)3 able, with a pittanoe of his wages, to buy at the markets of the towns and Villages all that he would require. But the mass of that peo? ple have not forecast enough to take that view af the matter, nor will they deny themselvo* Bven if they aid; for with them the present is every thins:, and they will kill the last cow or bog to gratify their appetite, and that, too, with the most unmerciful and remorseless dis? regard of the right of mewn and tuarn; taking the last cow ot the poor, unoffending widow, who depends upo a the lost of her stock tor the scanty allowance of milk which she gets for her little ones. .dillions are annually lost to the South that might be saved by proper legislation and con? cert ot action on the part of tho planters and farmers. The South is becoming, every, year more dependent on the West for necessary sup? plies, and tbe pork crop of the Unite J States does not now exceed what lt was fifteen year* ago. The number of hogs killed and packed in the West in 18i6-'57 was 2 584 77J ; in 1868 '69 2 477 2A and yet tbe natural increase ia the wants during that time must have been fol iv 40 per cant. .Population, is gaining on production. According to the census of 1869 we had m Sontn. Carolina of hogs 985 779; now we have but 468.878. and the negroes will keep on reducing tbom unless tbey are prevented; they are as bad on bog* aa the beats in the swamp-ia fajt. the two-legged bears are worse than the foar-'egged ones. If we wantimmigrants to como to our coun? try we must have the wherewith to feed them. Let the plante? and farmers tben be protect? ed in I heir ende <vors to raise, besides grain, an abundance of mattie and hogs. Let pioper laws be ennotod lor guarding against theft and inflicting a severe and summary punish? ment when theft is detected, heaving in mind the principle laid down by Blackstone, that crimes must be measured sad dealt with ac corduia to their effecs upon society and the fall measure of punishment meted out that is required i or i heir prevenci?n. Let the negro kuo* his legal rights, deal with him jus'lv, honestly, firmly but, above all, convince him that he shad not steal. Then will our State oe rendered in a great measure, independent of external sappi v. The cotton crop, at tor de? ducting for wages and the interest on capital, will be net profit for fun nor investment either m commoron and manufacturing or ta more la? bor for making still larger orops, and with the millions anuu illy paid to the West for pork and grain retainod in the South, will give a new impulse to every department of industry. tn certain situations and under certain cir? cumstances I admit it will ba best for individu? als and even whole States lo purchase certain supplies, but, aa a general role, that State will bs most prosperous * hat. ia least dependent upon others -particularly for bread and meat. Proper legislation and concert of action on the part oi ?he planters and farmers of our 8ta>e can bring abuit a right condition ot thmga, and the peace, prosperity and bappi ness of the community will be enhan.ed there? by. _ _'_ B. -Tba Confederate dead are belog removed from i he Ohiekama uga battla field, and *eti> terrod in the Confederate cemetery at Mari etta, Georgia. TUE STATE TAXES. THU TEMPER AND PURPOSES OF THE PEOPLE, Spirit of ?ne Country Pre??. The following extracts from articles in the State papers on the subj oct of taxation justify the anger of oar people, while they shiver to pieces the chief statements made by Governor Scott in his last long letter. r ii an HLD ADVISES RESISTANCE. The Winnsboro* News advises the people "to pay only such a portion of the tar as the real value of the property calls for, and carry the question to tho courts.'' It says further: There is not even the appearance of justice in the present manner of assessing the value of property. The Board of Equalization can tax jost as they see flt, if they can exercise any such power, as they have presumed to do ia Orangebarg, as raising the assessment 800 per cent. Under that decision the house of a gen? tleman returned by him at $8000, and sorely that is a high value, will have to pav a tax on $32,000. In Fairfield, land for which the owners have been anxious to got $4 au acre, has been assessed by the County Auditor st $6, to which 60 pei ceot., or $3, bas boen added by the State Board of Equalization, making j$9 per acre in all. Is this justice ? Anotber tract of land belonging to the estate of M. Wirick, waa re? turned at $100, at which prioe it had been sold, and which those who are acquainted with the naked old field say is m ire than its real value, has been assess-d at $300. And jost BO, there are thousands of honest men wno have made a fair retur.t of their pro? perty, who forsooth, are to bo doubly and inply taxed, because suspected it is that many others, impoverished by misrule and & mongrel ?tate government, h iwnot returned their property fairly. Resist the injustice. Refuse to pay. Trust to the. future for a remedy. BU MT EB APPEALS TO THE COURTS. Ia Sumter the feeling is very strong. The News says : But the question is as to the remedy. Should this tax, based upon a flotations assessment, be quietly paid-without effort to mitigate tin wrong? We answer emphatically in the negative. Let this be quiotly paid, and it would but be acoepted as a license for the im? position of yet more unrighteous and excessive demands. We believe that the proper course was de termioed upon, so far as the present ls con? cerned, by the meeting o? taxpayers on Mon? day last at the courthouse. A committee was appointed to wait upon the authorities, care? fully and truthfully to represent the facts, and ask an abatement. Should the committee fail, however, in securing relief, then appeal to the {udtciary was determined upon. We believe bis to be the true course. The opinion has been expressed by legal gentlemen that, under existing authority, tbe present tax cannot bc forcibly collected previous to March next, and the further opinion has been. With equal confi? dence, expressed, thal the decision of tho ju? diciary would be adverse to the legality of the present assessment. .{ BPABTANBTJKO Ct,GAB8 FOB ACTION. In Spartanburg there has been great excite? ment. The GaZ9tte shows tbe way that the tax muddle works. It says: Nowhere in the State, we believe, have the people yielded a more ready and cheerful com? pliance with the obanged state of affairs than the people of Spartanburg. Very few com flainte were made with the asbo&suieuts. Toper ty generally was assessed at its market? able value. For months our people have benn preparing to meet the expected demands ol the County Treasurer. When it became known that the State Board of Equalization had doubled the assessment of real pr? ?perty, the people cheerfully acquiesced in the decision, and sought means to meet the additional de? mand. What each had to pay ?as a matter of simple calculation. He Knew the amount of hie real pronertr andr lt? >?<dpfcMki vs-lna- bc knew the value of hui personal property wmcb he had returned under oath. With these date the calculation was simple and the total amount due waa eas' ly derived.With this amount in hand oar farmers came to town in response to the call of the County Treasurer. At the Treasurer'* office, however, they found their calculations all at fault; their real property had been nol only doubled, but in borne instances quadru? pled, while their personal property had myste? riously increased in value since they made theil sworn returns. They found themselves uuex pectedly much better off ia this world's goodi than they previously had any idea of, thougl unfortunately they were obliged to pay hand aomely for the pleasing discovery. For th? dist few days mach grumbling was heard upot our streets, and payments made under protest la almost every store a group of men could b seen soliciting our merchants to go over thei calculations and see wherein the error lay Grumbling soon gave way to righteous indigna Lion, whioh threatened for a time to termin?t* in something far. more serious. Wiser conn -els, however, fortunately prevailed, and nos our larger taxpayers ate withholding pay men antil some satisfactory solution of the problen ;an ba given. PIODBEH X>^ NOT LIE. In the mountains the people are justly io lignant. The Walhalla Courier has an intet jeting article on the subject of taxation, fror ?vhich we take the followiog : We show by facts the fair valuation of ou lands. The arable lands in Oconee were on?i nailv assessed at $9 per acre, in Pievens $6 4? ia anderson at $6 29. in Greenville at $524. r Spartanburg at $5 87, io Abbeville at $6 25, i Laurons at $555. ia Union at $3 41, and i: Newberry ct $5 84. I>o these facts exhibit a un lair valuation of the lands of our county It to every one must admit that the valuatio is too high in Oconee, instead of too low. Wi a people who have returned their atable lan above any of the nine adjoining counties b likely to depreciate their wild lands? Is th doubling of our lands under these circus stances a fair and impartial equalization? W oballenge the State for e better record of a valorem re.urus. But our average value i below all these counties, says tho Audito: Let os show why this is true. The proportio of aorcB of arable laud in Piekens to the who! number of sores is as one to seven, in Oconc as one to twelve, in Anderson as one to five, 1 Abbeville as one to lour, and so on. Agati Oconee is the northwest county < the State, bounded by and termina lng in the mountains in a northerly ar westerly direotion. Three .milos north of Wa halla we ttrike tho mountain?, and for a di tanoe of fifteen to twenty miles in differoi directions, there is an unbroken succession < rooky hills. An area of fifteen'miles wide I twenty miles long number a voting popuUttc of less than 200 sonia. These are men, wi have settled in tho little coves along the mou tain branches. The remainder of this lam area is useless except as a woodland pastur and one tenth the amount would answer i the purposes of the settlers ia that way. Tl wood has no maiketable value, and tbe soil too poor and broken for cultivation. In Pic ens the proportion ot broken lands is mn? less, there bel?g about the same quantity arable land in the two counties and tho sar population, while in Oconee th.-re are noni 200,000 more acres of land than iu Piekens. tue other counties the surtaco is not BO brok and the soil better. Three four I hs of o county can grow only carn, while all t others except Pckeus grow cotlon larg? ard profitably. Conon is money, money ea of transportation, a? d laud adapted to : g-owth.is more valuable. We will explain one other point which m have influenced in seme degree tbe action the State Board. That is th? bw figures whioh meadow or pasture land was Tala? Ii Oconee this waa fifty-seven conta per ac The truth is thara is not an acre ot mead land, atrio ly speaking, in tho county. T assessors pat ander that head ol i fields wc out and washed. To the Yankee mind, mead ia a valuable class of land. From these facts it is manifest that 1 State Board most have acted either from igt rai co or iraud, or both, in doabhng < lands, and we are inclined to think from I former.

Let them seen first an ex-euston of tl for tho collection of taxes in our courts, them next request fha Stats Auditor to instr the county Auditor to gita notice that he hear and relieve all cases of peculiar hardships on tho presentment of a petition properly vouched and approved by this County Auditor, and then lo:, every one rest his case on its merits. We believe if the Auditor has not tho power, he should withhold the collection of the tax on the whole nmou-1 added by the State Board, and refor the matter v.ith his reason? to the next meeting of the Legislature for con? firmation or rejeotior. It, mi ? ii t be best to try tbie first, as we are satisfied the entire amount added by the State Board is without justifica' tion of law. Al i .HHS JJV TUE STATE. The Yorkville Enquirer saye: "Compara? tively few persona from the country wore in town on Monday, and there was little public business. The sheriff resold the Broad River Gold Mine, at the risk of the former purchaser, for $600. It was bought by H. D. Stowe. Thie property was sold tbree months ago for $10,100. and was bid off by L. M. Seaorest. ?be sheriff aleo sold a tract of laud belougiog to G. W. S. Logare, lying on the Sooth Fork of Fishing Greek, and containing four hundred acres, for $600. Purchaser ?. P. Hamilton, of Chester. Thompson & Jeffreys, assignees io bankrupt? cy, reeold, at the risk of former purchaser, a tract of laud, the property of Samuel Black, containing two hundred and forty acres, at $5 60 per acre, lo S. G. Hempbill. At the for? mer sale this land was bid off at $10 95 per acre." Oeonee. The Walhalla Courier says : "On tbe first iostant, as we were going to press, Elisha King exhibited to us two cotton blooms which hu plucked from his farm in this county on tbe 29th of J une. He has only eight sores planted, but represents it as average-g fr^m twenty four to thirty inches in height, and full of squares. This is early for this section, con? sidering the late spring. * "For tbree weeks the weather has been un? usually warm and dry. In some parts of the county the farmers report good seasons, while in others they are very much in need of rain. It bas been three weona and two days since Walhalla hos been blessed with an out-pour? ing from the clouds, and the wilted vegetables in onr gardens show the effect of the hot Bun. Crops are, as yet. uninjured, and if we get rain shortly, we believe they will be benefited. Corn is voung and will not be hurt from drought if ?re have rain at the earing time. Preseut prospects tor crops are still good." . Anderson. . . The popular and widely known landlord. Colonel A. M. Hunt, of Colombia, has leased the building known as the old Anderson Hotel, on the northwest corner of the publio square, and will open the same for the reception of visitors about the first of August. Of sales-day the Intelligencer says : "Mon? day last was the dullest sales-day on record. One tract of land, containing twenty-seven acres, brought $200. The few persons from the country loitered in the shade, and there was a total absence of activity in business circloe." Mis. Esther Bonson, relict of Mr. E. B. Ben > son, formerly a well known merchant of Pen? dleton, died in Anderson Viii ige on Saturday morning last, in the seventy-fifth year ot ber age. Mies (.'orrie Horsey, second daughter of I Mr. T. M. Horsey, recently of Charleston, but now a resident of New York, died suddenly on Sunday morning last of consumption. The Intelligencer says : "The crops ate suf? fering severely for the want of rain, and relief from protracted drought ia a lew days will gladden the hearts of the farmers with fair prospects ot oom and cotton. The wheat and oat crops are turning out Splendidly, in many instances beyond an average yield. The gar? dens about town are badly in need of refreshing showers." Fdgefielct. Edgefield Courthouse now bas a dailv moil. Old Mr. Andrew Moyer, tried at the June term of court for the murder of John Autre y, found guilty ot manslaughter and sentenced to two years' imprisonment in tho penitentiary, has, upon a petition from many of the best citi gjiuof Edgefield. endorsed by the presiding j--v. -??-- -- - J-?? K.. nAvr",f ocuw. s\" Thursday last he was released from jail and re? turned to his family. Oa Wednesday last, near Tucker's in the Dark Corner, a citizen of that region, named Wm. To wies, was shot and seriously wounded. It seems that a man by the name of Trait was driving a wagon along the road, wheo To wi ea suddenly stepped np and knocked down one of his moles. Upon this Trait shot To wies and wounded hun seriously in the stomach, lt tums ont that Towles mistook Trait for some other man against whom be had a grudge. At last accounts, Towles was doing well. The ridgefield Advertiser says: "On the night of the 25tn ot May last, after the election for Coroner at Pleasant Lane, a negro man named Reuben Smyly, living on the plantation of Ran ? som Timmerman, Esq., was very severely beaten by parties still unknown. On Wednes? day last this negro died. A coroner's inqnest was held upon the body by Lemuel Coi ley, Esq., and the verdict rendered that the de? ceased came to bis death from the effects of the beating received on the 25th of May. Seve? ral gentlemen of tho Pleasant Lane neighbor? hood are being implicated by the reports of [ negroes in this aft'iir, bat as - yet no arrests have been made."

Ju'ylO 1 MORDECAI & CO., Agents. SST THE WORLD GROWS WISER.-THE human stomach has bean a shamefully persecuted organ. There was a time when for every dereliction of duty it waa punished tilth huge doses of the moBt disgusting and nauseous drugs. In vain it rejected them, and (literally) returned them upon the banda of those who administered them. They were forced upon it again and again, until its solvent power waa thoroughly drenched out of it The world ia wiser now tban it was in that drastic era, when furious purgation and mercurial salivation were what Artemas Ward would have called the "main holt" of the faculty, in cases of dyspepsia and liver complaint. The great modern remedy for InTUgeBtion and bil . tautness is HOSTET! Eli's STOMACH BITTERS, a preparation wtich has the merit of combining a pal atable flavor with such tonic, aperient and antibit ioua properties, aa were never heretofoie united in any medicine. It has been discovered, at laat, that sick peoplo are not like the fabled Titans, who lound prostration so refreshing that, whon knocked down, they rose from the earth tw ice as vigorous ns before. When an in? valid ls prostrated by powerful depleting drugs, he is apt to stay prostrated; ard the debilitated being aware of the fact, prefer the building up to the knock? ing down eyetem of treatment. HOSTETTER'S BTTTt-RS meets the requirements of tne rational meaicai pnuosopny which ai prttwui prevails. It is a perfectly pure vegetable remedy, embracing the three^lmportant properties of a pre? ventive, a tonio and an alterative. It fortifies the body against die ease, invigorates and revitalizes the torpid stomach and liver, and effects a moat saluta? ry change in the entire system, when in a morbid condition. In summer, when the enfeebling temperature ren? ders the human organisation particularly suscepti? ble to unwholesome atmospheric influences, the Bit? ters should be taken as a protection against epidemic disease.
