We take the following article from the Wil ruington Star of yesterday : We had the pleasure of a visit a few days since from our old friend, Colonel William M. L. McKay, who may not inappropriately be termed the engineer (and a verv "civil" one, at that,) of the Fayetteville ?nd Florence It ail road. Colonel McKay speaks hopefully of tbe pros? pect, aud he bas good reason for doing so, as the completion and equipment of the road is gu?rante 3d by Northern capitalists, provided $75,000 can be raised by the stockholders. This amount the gallant old Town of Fayetteville will no doubt contribute to this important work. On tb> 16 h instant her citizens will vote on the question of "Subacriptiou" or "No' Subscription," and we feel assured it'will be decided in the affirmative by an overwhelming majority. The properly-holders or Fayetteville can afford to be liberal in this -matter. The com? pletion or tbe extension of a railroad in almost any direction will be advantageous to Fayette? ville, ii that point be one of its termini, and must result in an enhanced value of ail its real estate. The great object of tho friends of tho Fay? etteville and Florence Road just now is to run it as far as Shoe Heel, on the Wilmington, Charlotte and Rutherford Road, and thus placo Wi]minston and Fayetteville iu close business connection. And, viewed from thia standpoint, it appears to ns that Wilmington might consult her interest by aiding in the work. -cThicago iq to have another tunnel un 1er the lake, to cost $1,500,000, and tekt, three -tears to construct. . AFFAIRS IN DARLINGTON. Tue Society in Society Hill-The Farm? er's Club-An Admirable Institution A StToke at the Cotton-stealers-How the Club Works and What ?re ita Objects. [FEOM OCR TRAVELLING C0RBESPONDENT ] ^OCTETS HILLJ?. C., September 1,1869.-Thia villageois one OT tbe most pleasant in the State, and is noted for tlfe refinement and hos? pitality of its people. Properly speaking it is not a village, bat ratber a pleasant neighbor? hood, as tbe bouses ore scattered for soma three miles, from tbe railroad depot oat to tbe sand hills. The inhabitants are, or were, wealthy planters wbo own plantations upon th?*river which are very productive, but in the same ratio, unhealthy in summer. I hf-y very wisely built themselves homes upon the hugh gronuds, where they can reside all the year round, instead of spending their winters on their plantationsvaud their summers uncom? fortably in log cabins in the pine lfcds. Their plantations are within easy reach, and they bav^ the advantages of proximity to oach-| other, being so enabled to keep np their churches and schools, have good doctors and other necessaries of life. At the same time, owing to community of feeling, they have few or none of tbe evils and annoyances common to moat villages and small towns. This vil? lage, indee), might properly be known as '?Good Society" Hill. I attended to-day the meeting of the Porno logical and Farmer's Club, and spent several boors in listening to the discussions upon tbe growing of small grains. Well will it be for the farmers throughout the State, eapec'sUy in this year of a small corn crop, if they come to the conclusion arrived at by the club, viz: to pay mora attention to the growing of small crain, as a substitute at least in part tor corn. Tbe culture of small grain takes mach lessf work, and when garnered and left m the sheaf to feed witn is much less etealable. THE NEWS could render the farmers throughout tbe State no greater or more lasting service than by urging them to plant small grain. By purchasing in each neighboring, aa in Califor? nia and Texas, the improved implements for sowing and reaping, the farmers could make it pay mach better than planting corn.* The club' awarded "tiver caps .to Mr. Ed wi rd Mcintosh for the la. gest yield of oats per acre, and to Ur. Griffin lo- tho largest yield of wheat per acre. They have also offered prizes to tbe successful competitors for cotton and corn honors. Tbe prizes will all be presented at some future day, which the dab propose cele? brating by a dinner. The club his also bad struck ott a Dumber of postent, offering a re? ward of $100 for pr^of sufficient to cop viet any one of baying stolen produce from members of tb? club or others. Tbe club meets daring tbe fruit seascu weekly aod during tbe rest of tho year monthly. -At each meet? ing some subject ?D keeping with the objects ot the organization is discussed, and anissav on that subject is ready. The next meeting of tbe dab will be on the 6th of October, and subject for discussion ie: "Preparation of cot? ton for market." After the adjournment of the club, we dis? cussed tbe merits of four varieties of grapes offered by tbe secretary, Major J. J. Lacas, formerly of Charleston. Tbe major is a scien? tific cultivator of many varieties ot grapes, and bas made some native wine which resembles hock. His grapery is extensive and he adds new varieties rrcqneotly to bis already choice selections. He now has some thirty different kinds of grape, lt would be well if each neigh? borhood "fpfce State had a similar club. SEMLOH. UNITED STATES COVET.

THE PARENT OF TBE PRESIDENT. AN INTERVIEW Vilm JE3SE GRANT. His Opinion of Negroes, Carpet-Bag ajera. Dividing thc \ation. and I'lyi sea' Tenure of Office. There being a great dfvsrsity of opinion in regard to tbe political and other sentiments of the father of tbe Presideut, the Cincinnati In? quirer dispatched a reporter to the home of (he lged author of the "greatest living hero," with instructions to interview the old gentleman, and report the result. Inquiring if the old gentle? man was in, the reporter was informed by the joy that Mr, Grant was in the back room. Proceeding to the back room pointed out by :be boy, the reporter found the door open and ?he room empty. On tho table, however, was i much worn silk hat and a spotted silk hand terchief, which indicated tbe proximity of the )wner. While awaiting tbe arrival of the,own sr, the reporter took a survey or tbe apart neat, a plain room, furnished with one stand, :wo desks, and several cane-bottom chairs and i soiled carper. The reporter had but a few ii mut es to wait. A nasal blast from tbe direc ion of tho back door announced that the pro toscis of the father of the President was being ilown. The next minute the door opened, and to old man of perhaps six fest stature and two jundred pounds weight, witb broad and slight y stooped shoulders, gray hair and whiskers, lim, spectacled eyes, and a gait that indicated 'eebleness, walked in, and the reporter stood lat in hand, in the presence of tbe great father >f the greatest living hero. Most of what, was said by the Venerable Pa .ent would bo of no interest to the readers of WE NEWS. Wo only givo thc striking points >f the interview. BE IS DOWN ON NIGGERS. After a bnef pause, Mr. Grant said, "I don't alaine people much if they are rebels. I am apposed to having niggers vote. I always was and always will be. I wouldn't now, and never will vote for niggers. If 1 woe an able-bodied roung man, and was elected to the.Legislature, anda nigger was elected to sit alongside o?-me, [ would say, 'Nigger, take both seats."' Reporter. The Republicans say they consider t necessary to adopt negro suffraee in the rebel 8tatca, m order to control tho "disloy?rl" dement. HS OPINION OF FANATICS AND CARPET-BAGGER?. President's Father. Well, it waa during tho var that a lot of Radical Abolitionists and fa ?atics. got themselves into tbe Republican laxly, and have ruled it eve) since. Them and bose carpot-Backers. who went down there to 'teal, have foisted this thing on tbe people or J ho States. The States could have been a irreat deal better constructed without it, and .here will be trouble about it yet, while Vir rinia and Tennessee have as good as voted igamst it now. DIVIDI SG THE COUNT M. If 1 hai my way, and it could be peaceably lone, I'd divide the country into two separate aatione. lt would ba better for both. I'd iraw a lino from tbe eastern border of Texas M Alaska, and put all weat of that under a separate government. I'J bave treaties of ? imity and commerce between the two nations ike those between the Slates, and free trade, jr pretty near so. The people would live more jeaceably aud be more happy. The Western Dation could take Mexico and all south of that, ind the Eastern take Canada. Canada is bound :o be ours anv way, some day; but we don't want Cuba or Mexico. Reporter. Tho General never took much in :erest in politics before now, did he ? President's Father. Ho never said much, io more than bc dpes now; but he always matched closely, and knew what was going on. ULYSSES WILL HANG ON TO THE WHITE HOUSE. Reporter. I supposa Genetal Grant will bo sick of tho place before his time expires, and will not care to have it another term. President's Father. I don't know. He won't rant to retire trom public life while ho is to ?oung. It would go pretty bard with bim, I hink, to give up the White House. THE PRESIDENT OWES HIS SUCCESS TO HI8 PARENTS. After discussing a variety of topics of no lublic interest, the conversation turned upon he earlv life of General Grant, a subject on .vhicli the old gentleman, with pardonable' atherly love and pride, delights to dwell. .?General Grant," said be, "had a better ?ba?os to succeed in life than President Lin :oln, and owes more of his succ?s* to his fath ;r. Lincoln's father was a very poor man, and lever gave his son any education; all he got he licked up himself, and all the property he had ie earned by bis own labor. I was never very loor after Ulysses was born; I was poor when roting, but before I got mimed 1 hal earned '1500, hut 1 lost that two years af erw .rds. I soon picked up again, and have made money ?versmco. I have always had plenty of the lecessaries and comforts of life, and never ivan ted any of the luxuries. I have given all >f my child.on good educations, and have made :ticm all rieb." 1 his concluded the conversation, and our reporter bieft-he old gentleman gqpd-bye, well aleaa"d with the gentlemanly manner in which io bad been received, and the coodnatured rankness exhibited by the President^ father n answtr to his questions. FOREIGN GOSSIP. -Prince Alfred was greatly pleased with the huiabula, the can-can of the Sandwich Iolande -A second scries of Hep worth Dixon's "Her Majesty's Tower" will be published in October. -It is libellons in England to call a man "no gentleman," with intent to bring him into con? tempt. -General Prim id faking Vichy water-a strange remedy for the complaints of the Cu? ban and Spanish people. -Prince Napoleon has an iacome from bis Swiss estate of 80,000 francs, whieh be says be keeps "in case of accident.** -The London Spectator sums np Louis Na? poleon's clemency by saying that-be has par? doned everybody who has done nothing. -The fions of the PariB hippodrome chewed np an exhibitor the other day, and would have eaten bim hut for the bravery of an assistant. -A journeyman tailor ot Frankfort ?has, at the age of sixty-eight, rhaa? enough money to enable bim to marry the girl to whom ho has been betrothed fof forty-six years. -Egypt goes to Gottingen for a professor of | ifs own history and antiquities in the hew Cairo Academy. Professor Brugscb bas re quested leave of absence for some years for the purpose of going to Cairo. -The Pall Mall flazette gives a new inter? pretation to Scripture when it speaks of the lemarriage of the Hind o widow, instead of the enttee, as conforming to St. Paul's advice that "it is better to many than to burn." -Ooe result of tbe opening of tho Sue? Ca? nal will be to increase The facilities of the cot? ton factories on the European continent for getting supplies of the raw material from the East, which will hy just so much injure the English cotton manufacturers.. ' -At Florence, tbe Marquis Coviao was con? versing with 'the Countess Ghiraidi, who sat in her carriage, when the horses of a vehicle taking Weht started off. and before tbe Mar? quis could get ont of the way knocked bim down and so fearfully injured him that bc ex? pired a few minutes after. -Mr. Spurgeon in a recent sermon referred to the velocipede, saying that these new in? ventions which the lads were riding down our streets would not keep up unless they were kept going; the rioment they stopped they fell down; and in this they were exceedingly like the Christian church, which would fall unless it was constantly moving on. -August 15tb, the anniversary of the hun? dredth birthday of the Emperor Napoleon I, was made the occasion by Do Lesseps of-a grand festival among the workmen on the Suez Canal. In addition to the banqueting, fireworks and music, the waters of the Medi? terranean and of the Bed Seas were inf roduced hito the SUTZ Canal, and met each other in the' Bitter Lakes. -Opium raisers in India are troubled. Last year's orop failed and the higher prices tg? not likely to compensate for the small amount.* | The increased cultivation of the poppy in China, and especially in Persia, adria still farther to their difficulties. The amount now raised in Persia is very large, there bein? hardly a pi ovin :e where it is not grown. In China the breadth of soil devoted to opium is so largo as to encroach upon tenitory that ought to be devoted to mc culture ?rf gi slur -M. BochefOrt declines to profit by the Na? poleonic amnesty, his rofusal, published in the "Rappel." being tb ns worded: *1fce or.lv con? demnations and the only amnesties that I can accept are thoso which the people distribute. This is the sole tribunal t nd powr.r to which I submit. I shall not, fherefore, return to France until the day when the people rccaH me by their votes. 1 eball re-enter my country, | only in virtue of my election os deputy, which I mean shortly to solicit from the vot?is ot the first circumscription. I receive willingly every? thing from those whom Ik no*' and love; but it does not snit me to find myself under obliga? tions to persona^arhom I have never seen, and and who have not been introduced to me. " The following is an extrae: from a letter jost received from London : ' Last nigh : we visited Drury Lane Thaatre, to witness Boarclcaull's now play of 'Formosa,' as its peculiar morality at present excites all classes in the great city. We found the vast auditorium densely packed. In act fourth, scene first, Mrs. Boker, the wife of the retired priz3 fighter, speaks the follow? ing line?: 'They say the law amt no respecter of | persons! Nol but it's a respecter of Ibo fine cloths upon 'em, and thc 'ousethey lives in! What's fashionable folly in'a club is felony in a skittle alley : That's where it is! They won't let mc and my tax cart in thc park, we're not in nui form 1 but a printed hussey in a bronghatn can ply her trade lhere under the eyes of a princess 1' As Mrs. Btllingston uttered tho conclusion of tho speech a gentleman (?) in tho stall? deliberately hissed, when the pit rj83 at him with such a yell that the occu? pants of the stalls actually cowered down; for a few moments the noiso .wis terrific, when .populi' became quiet, and awaited with pa? tience tho great University boat race scene with which the drama concludes. The play is an overwhelming- success." -Another of Mr. George W. Ripley's letters, in the Tribune, describes the journey from Liverpool to London. Ho regards the English anangements for railroad trav;l as far prefer? able to our system, and especially agree? able to him was tho absence of baggage checks. ?"To be sure." ho says, "it >ou lose a trunk you bava perhaps more diffi? culty in recovering it, but the chanco of loss, under the English management, is comparatively small." His arrival iu the London station was surprising from its quiet and absence of confusion ; no crowds of eager friends surrounded the car? riages ; tho hackmca were silent aud re spectfrl, waiting the summons of travel? lers without urging their services; the railway porter took tho baggage from thc van and put it on the one-horse coach, which rolled easily through the streets, although the load was one which an American coachman would hardly have taker with two horses. When thc hotel was readied, three silver shillings am\ ly com? pensated the driver, who was sati-fled that he had fallen iuto generous hands, and wisely and instantly resolved to seek only American pa? trons in the future. "How mtieh the same service would bavo cost in New York," writes Mr. Ripley, 'T have neither room nor pxtience to calculate." ? -A Vienna paper gives an amusing account of the refreshments which thc singers at the opera there are in Hie habit of taking between tho acts to keep their voices in good order. Each singer, it appears, has his or her own peculiar specific. The Swedish tenor Libatt takes "two salted cucumbers" for a dose, and declare* that this vegetable is the best thing in the world for. strengthening the voice ind giving it "tho true metallic ring. ' The other eingere, however, do not seem to be of this opinion. Sontheim takes a pinch of snuff and drinks cold lemonade; Wachtel eats the yolk of an eg< baaten up with sugar; Steger, "the mo&t corpulent ot tenors,'' drinks "the brown juice ol the gambrinue;" Walter, cold black coffee; Nio mann, champagne; and Tieb.ttcuek, mulled claret. Ferenezy, the tenor, smokes one or two cigars, which his colleagues regard as so much poison. Mlle. Braun-Brini takes after the first. act a gil ss of be|r, after the third and four h a cup of cafe au lait, and before the great duct in the fonrth act of the "Huguenots" always a bottle of Moet Cremant Bose. Nachbanr munches bonbons during the performance; Bubsam, the baritone, drinks mead; Matter wurzer and Kandermann sucks dried plums; Robinson, another baritone, drinks soda-water: FormeB takes Pyrtor, and Arabanek Gumpold skirchner wine ! The celebrated baritone Beck, on the other hand, takes nothing at all, and refuses to speak. Drax'er smokes Turkish to? bacco and drinks ar glass of beer. Another singer, Dr. Scbmid, regulates his diet accord? ing to the state of his voice at thc time. Some? times he drinks coffee,, sometimes tea, and a quarter-of an hour afterwards lemonade, mead ot champagne, taking snuff between whiles, and eVbg apples, plums and dry bread; a. | very liberal arrangement. . . AN EARTHQUAKE COMINO, A California Savant Predicts a Heavy Shouing-up of Things In September or October. The San Francisco Chronicle publishes tho following prediction, made by a local philoso? pher, W. Frank Stewart: Daring tbe past eightean months the earth and other planets completed tho most remark? able conjunction wbich bas ever occurred; and on the Dight of the 14th of last November we again witnessed the grand thirty-four year star-swarm. Every intelligent person is aware that for a period of nearly two years our globe bas been subjected to violent perturbations, auch as have not before occurred for many centuties. These perturbations have been generally over the surface of the planet. Storms, typhoons, volcanoes, earthquakes, intense cold and scorching winds have alternately spent their fury upon the denizens of every hemi? sphere. Bv careful observations, astronomers hava lound that in a period of about eleven years Ihe sun turns towards us a remarkably spotted diec, and it has also been observed that any sudden changes of light and shade upon the sun daring this spotted period instantly affect terrestrial magnates. It is well known that in the autumn ot 1859 ont of these sun-spot per? turbations was immediately followed by one ol the most brilliant Aurora Borealis over wit? nessed in the northern hemisphere; and still more surprising tho magnetic effect of the aurora was BO great that messages were freely sent over telegraphic lines without connection with the batteries and bv means of the auroral current alone. Many additional facts, showing the connection of celestial with terrestial mag? netism, might bd given, but I bavo neither the time nor room at present. Suffice 'it to say, that as the earth's magnetic forces aro now, and for many months havo been, greatly dis? turbed by cosmical ii fluciices; and as we have rec-mtly made our annual transit through tho nebulous belt: and as the sun's surface is at thia moment disfigured by an unusual number ol spots; and as the moon on tho 71 h ultimo passed between ns and the sun, thereby caus? ing an additional magnetic disturbance upon tho earth; and as we on the Pacific ooast are now experiencing an unusually protracted dry season, the invariable precursor of temblors in this part ot the world, for the foregoing and many other potent reasons, I predict a heavy earthquake to take place early next antumn, as soon as moist clouds float into the dry, vapor less atmosphere. ff /antral lotices. quain tances ol Mr. an 1 M'S.

To the Ptopl: of South Carolina: The above Company was organ'zed in 1866, in consequence of the wholesale forfeiture of Somborn policies by Northern companies. The unparalleled success of die enterprise has forced several of these companies to restore their Sout-ern policies, from the fact that they could not operate in our midat without the appearance of honesty. We keep all onr money at home to build up our Impoverished country-every dollar of premium being safely invested in the State from which it la de? rived. The institution is purely Southern, and hence should appeal with great force to the patriotism and and sympathy of every Southern heart. 'Iis oot our purpose to make war on other com? panies, but to exhibit the special advantages off. red by thu purely Southern Company-founded cn' patriotism and solid wealth. Its ratio of assets to liabilities-the true test of a company's strength-is second to none on this continent, being nearly $300 to $100. Whenever and wherever we have presented the claims of tbis Company, it ba-* not only enlisted the sympathies of our people, but has also secured their hearty co-operation. We have secured 603 policies in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We number among our Directora General Warle Hamp? ton and Colonel Wm. Johnson, gentlemen well known to every citizen of South Carolina. We ap? peal personally to the people of South Carolina to assist in pushing forward this deservedly popular South ern institution. J.

PARATION, compounded by one of our oldest and most esteemed diuggists, has, during the short time in which it has been offered to the public, attained a reputation which has almost entirely driven out of market the various tonic1 and stimulant* which, for a few mon bp. by exorbitant puffingand heavy ad? vertising, succeeded in building a profitable busi nesftor their projectors. So'omon's Bitters aro not of the flashy style, de? pending upon large advertising, bought puffs and fictitious recommendations Idt a sale to a gullible publie. Their composition is well%nown to and ap? proved by many of our best physicians, and the pro? prietors depend upon tbe inlriusic merits of their medicine to make it as popular as lt is curative. They do nctpretend to offer a medicinal prepara? tion that will cars all thc ills that flesh in herr to, but they do contend that tho judicious use of these Bitters will greatly alleviito human suffering, and bring very many to a state of comparative health who have long been strangers to that grrat blessing. Ono good genuine recommendation of any pro? fessed curative (fs worth dozens or hundreds of bought certificates, and the Messrs.
