VOLUME XI.-NUMBER 1671. CHARLESTON, WEDNESDAY" MORNING, MAY 3, 1871. EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR. THE GROWING CROPS. LATEST REPORTS FE O M SOUTH CAROLINA. ? Union County. * The Onion Times says: "The cold, wet weather of last month is -beginning to show fearfully against the co. ton crop in Union County. One gentleman informed us that two weeks ago he thought his cotton looked as well as he ever saw it, in that stage oi ils growth, but now much ol' it is dying ont and bis neighbors are making the same complaint. This is pretty much the account we obtained on Monday last .'rora many other portions ot the county. The wheat crop ol this county will not turn out so bad as was antici? pated. The long continued and heavy but partial rains last week have, no doubt, done much mischief to lt m some sections, but where those rains did not occur a fair crop will be made. A lew weeks ago it was feared the rust would com? pletely ruin it, but we are glad to learn thai, lt has not done so much damage as anticipated. The oat crop ls doing well, in lact, one or two farmers told us they never had better crops ol orris. Corn is also doing weil, and a large crop | is confidently anticipated, unless something '.unforeseen occurs to it. There is one draw? backs all the crops: The rains have given the grass sucha start that it is feared, lt has got beyond the control ol many. White the wet weather has given man; days rest to farm hands, the grass has been industriously grow? ing, night aud day.'' Oconee County. The Keowee Courier says: " 'It rains' is perhaps the most accurate statement of the weather tor the past ten days. The crass and weeds are making cood use of their "privilege to grow. To these enemies of the larmer lt is truly a 'forcing season.' It is to be regretted that with a light crop of small grain, we are having a spring so uniavorabte to line sum? mer crops. We can only say to our farmers, to turn to account every moment which can be employed in their crops. The corn crop with us is a certainty if properly cultivated. There is no rust or blight to defeat lt. Grass and weeds are its only enemies, and indo? lence will aid these. Energy and industry will overcome them, and secure a good return." Clarendon County. The Clarendon Pees?, published at Manning, speaks thus o f tho crops in that section of ?he State: ."We are pleased to note the revivify? ing effect which the recent rains, falling al . most daily for a week past, has had upon the crops In our county. The prospect ls truly fluttering at '.his time lhat abundant corn crops will be tnade In our immediate county, and; as far as we can learn, in the adjoining counties. Cotton has also - recovered verl? ornen lrom the ill effects ol the recent cold snaps, and promises well. -We do not think, fcrom all that we can learn, that as large an acreage in cotton bas been planted in this county this year as last. The importance of a good cotton crop ls not to be undervalued, but the evils of making it an exclusive one ls very great; hence it ls a hopeful sign to hear our planters almost Invariably when speaking of (heir crops lay particular stress upon their attn crops. That's right-, corn brings fat horse.", fat hogs and exemption from the ex? actions and extortions of the iactor and mer? chant. With our%ooke-heuses and barns well filled, we can afford to snap our fingers at hard times and go on our way rejoicing." COTTON. IS ALABAMA. The Effect of the Continuous Ruins [From the Montgomery Mall.] r 3s=er before in the history cf Alabama have we had such discouraging accounts ot the crop prospects as now flow In upon us from every side. During a late trip through Cherokee, Autanga, Elmore, Baker, Shelby, Talladesa, Calhoun, DeKalb, Etowab. St. Clair and Jeffer? son Counties, we had an opportunity to see tor ourselves the condition ot the crops, and to learn from a personal Inspection, '.he slen? derness of the thread on which hang the hopes ol' the farming interests of Alabama for the present year. The wheat crop, always light In this State, is the best of the lot. Corn con.es. next in order,-but even that crop is very un? promising. The most that we saw was less than six Inches high and but few fields could boast even exceptional spots in which-the plant measured mure than eighteen inches in heighth. Colton ls almost a total la il ure. In three out ot every five fields we passed through it was. | hard to say which bad been planted, grass or cotton; and fully one-half of the crop in the counties referred to is yet untouched by the hoe. We saw more codon in Au tanga and El? more that had been chopped out than in all the other counties put together. As a rule the plant looks rust eaten, hard and unpromising. Very little of it has more than two or three leaves to the stalk, and- in many fields ' these are dying off. And still the rains continue to lall. Ic- the northeastern portion .of Jefferson Count} the heaviest rain of the season fell last Monday night. The creeks were raised by it a heighth greater by four leet than was ever known be? t?re. Wednesday nfghl a small Hood fell in - the centre of the county. It is hardly an ex? aggeration to say that averaging all the days together, there has nert been three successive days of dry weather in Jefferson County du? ring the last two months. The farmers have, almost lost both heart | and hope? and unless the sun comes out and the rain speedily disappears, one good train could bring to Montgomery, at one trip, all the cotton that will be made in the County ol Jefferson this year. It the seasons change, however,, a half crop may be made; but the change must come very soon, and the dry season continue some time if it would be el? ective of good. How It may be elsewhere we have no means of knowing definitely, but In North Alabama lt will be hut little less than a miracle If half as muchcotlon is* made this year as was gathered last.. If.the same rule holds good in South Al? abama, those who spin colton next lull will pay at least twenty-five cents lor it. THE RAINS IN GEORGIA. Disastrous Effects p ii thc Ci ops. rFrom-the Augusta Constitutionalist.] Our exchanges from all parts of the State ar* filled with accounts of the continued and dam? aging rains in their sections. Crops in many places have been utterly ruined, and in others cotton has been ploughed up and corn substi? tuted. The traditional personage, "the oldeEt Inhabitant," scarcely remembers 60 long a period of wet weather ut this season ol' the yew._ * CROPS IN LOUISIANA. [From the New Orleans Times, June 8.] A flying visit to the country, gives a very unfavorable Idea ol' the growing crops, both of cane and cotton. Such continuous, drench? ing rains have not. been known for many years, and the slants, both ot cotton and cane, have a sickly hue. This damage, however, ls not irreparable. With great vigor and activ ltjjon the part of the hands, the grass may be kept down, in which case the plants are young enongh to make a new start and become u good stand. It ie, however, a condition pre? cedent to this improvement that tue rains should cease; a long drought would now be a blessing, especially to the cotton growers. We are pleased to observe that the planters this yeni- have gone more largely into (he corn culture than usual, and the prospects are that they will be in a better condition next season to meet any ol' the emergencies of reduced prices, and other disasters of their occupation. THE RICE CROP. [From the New Orleans ftcayune.J We are sorry to learn that the rice planters ot'Loulslana have not used tho same exertions to extend the culture of the staple as in lormer years. The planting this season was not larger than last year, and we cannot look for a crop of over eighty thousand barrels, or sixteen million pounds. The same study and enter? prise which characterized the study of rise* culture during the first three years alter ire' war Would have soon placed our State beside the Carolinas, where the finest rice in the J world ls grown. The climate and soil ot ?ouislana ure admirably adapted to the growth f this anide, and a judicious seleciltn of seed insures a steady improvement in the quality. Its culture Involves hule labor and only a small capital; ana 1 he prices received certainly afford, on the average, a very hand? some profllj. It is to be regretted that so few ol our rich planters have ever tried the culti? vation of rice on a laree scale. Wherever this ha* been done, the quality of the product has been vastly improved. REPORTS FROM WASHINGTON. A Washington letter of Friday says : "Judg inc from the numerous telegrams received by the commissioner of agriculture seeking infor? mation on that subject, there must be a good deal of speculation In commercial circles in regard to the cotton crop. It is too early yet for the* commissioner to give any exact state? ment, though the returns ate expected to be all in shortlv. It ls surmised, however, that the number of acres planted is larger than last year." G LIPS BS OF GOTHAM Greeley's Return and Reception-War of the Radical Factions-Politics of the Ronghs-Great Moral Ideas-How Grunt will Pass thc Summer-Tne Rush to Long Branch-The Viaduct Railway and tts Destructive Course (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] NEW YORK, June 7. Horace Greeley is to be back irom his South western tour on Tuesday, and preparations are already being made by his political and per? sonal friends to give him a serenade, .a pyro? technic display and a banquet. The old gen? tleman is expected to make a speech, which will be a sort of review of his experiences down among the Ku-Klux. Probably some mischievous people in the crowd will want to know the particulars of that cordial interview with Jefferson Davis at Memphis, and Mr Greeley will have the opportunity again ol' anathematizing the "blockheads" who call in question MB right to fraternize with ''rebels" whenever it suit3 his wr.ira3 to do so. The leading sensation daily has put up at its editorial bead as the "farmers' candidate" for' President, "rlie great and good Horace Gree? ley, of Texts." It is doubtful If Mr. Greeley will regard the ribald advocacy cf the Sun as any advantage In his favor. But tho evidences here and there that there are people who look kindly upon his nomination for President, will no doubt flutter the susceptible old man into the belief that it is worth his while to contest the prize with Grant. The two actions of the Radical party In this city are new engaged in a -truggle to control the delegation wnlc^wlll be - eat to the State Radical Convention. U is? designed lo have the next convention select the delegates to the national convention, which is to meet next spring to nominate a candidate for the Presidency. Of course the lactlon walch gets possession of the State Con? vention will he able to put thirty-three votes into the national convention lor its candidate. '! The Grant lactlon is engineered by Collector Murphy, of the customhouse; the Greeley fac? tion by General John Cochrane and Rufus T. Andrews. The Times and Tribune represent .espectlvely these warring elements. The feeling ls very bitter. It may be well to correct here the popular impression that tbe ruffian classes in this great city affili?t? with the Democrats. This Idea ls sedulously culti? vated by the country Radical press tor parti? san purposes, but Is no more true than that all the Philadelphia ruffians are Radicals. Both parties have their share ol bad men as well as of good. The Radical leaders of this city kee.p in their employ a gang of "strikers," whose business it is to manage primaries, stand .around the polls and intimidate voters, stuff ballot-boxes, and, when necessary, "repeat.'' The leader of-this gang is the notorious "The" Allen, the keeper ufa liquor saloon in Spring street. He belongs to the Grant faction. The Radicals are having an enrolment taken of the members of the party In each assem? bly district, preliminary to their primary elec? tions next month. On Monday evening the Grant gang, led by "The" Allen, attempted to enroll a crowd of ruffians (Tammany Demo? crats, the Tribune says.) and was resisted by the inspectors, whereupon they made a brutal attack on the Greeley-Fenton men in the room, and nearly murdered them. One Win? terbottom, the president of the district asso? ciation, was selected os a victim by '..The? Alien himself, who "butted him in the fae* with his?head so os to-loosea. all his teeth, and struck him over th? head with brass knuckles, knocking him down." One of the inspectors,; Mr. Cutler, testifies that Allen struck bim in the face with his fist, and that another Grunt ruffian struck him several times on the head with some iron weapon. The gang then rush? ed upon him, knocked him down and kicked him in the head, Allen shouting, "kill him!" The rioters were arrested and taken before a Democratic justice, who impartially commit? ted all hands to the Tomb?. Tbis is the way the brethren oj "the party of great morai ideas" dwell together in unity. * ? President Grant and family, ' attended by their shadow, Collector Tom Murphy, passed through the city from Long Branch en route lo West Point, on Tuesday. The President will remain at the Military Academy several days, as bis eldest eon, Fred., is about to graduate. He will then return to his cottage by the sea, and idle bis lime away Until he is ready to make'his California trip. Long Branch ls to be the? focus ol' oil the fashionable and a large part of the political world during the next turee mouths. It will really be a sort of sum? ner capital of the United States. The Presi? dent hos removed from' Washington with bis horses, dogs, cigars and relatives, and occu? pied his cottage for the season, just as the Ljueeu gpes to Osborne, or the ex-Emperor used to go lo Biarritz. He troubles himsell reryjittle about the cares of Stale. His morn? ings are spent on his piazza, with a cigar and the New York newspapers, and his afternoons behind a fast trotter on the beach. Bores (Tom Murphy excepted) are excluded from his presence by the servants; but'his Excel? lency may be seen from afar-off by travellers on the road. This is the state that becomes u dictator. The rush to LongBranoh has already begun. It cou be reached from the city ic three hours. There aro nearly a dozen first-class hotels ou the beach, some of which are among, the largest in the country. Most ol' our wealtliv people have erected cottages there during the past two years. There is also a pleasant little settlement ol rich and lainous actors caded Huey Park. Among those who have' cottages or "mansions" there are Mrs. Hoey, Edwin Booth, Lester Wallack, Frank Chanfrau, E. L. Davenport, Maggie Mitchell, J. W. Wallack, Henderson, (husband to Lydia Thompson, the blonde,) end Manager Duly, ol' the Fi&li Avenue Theatre. One of thc largest real es? tate holders in Long Branch ls Dr", Helmbold, the buchu man, who was shrewd enough to invest early, and has realized enorm?us pro? fits by the rise in property. On the maia road, land, which could have been .bought four yean ago at $10 per acre, will now command ?30.000 per acre cut into house lots. The directors of the great viaduct railway hav% decided to build their lower depot on Chambers street, lacing Printing House square, on the site of what has been kuowu for three-quarters of a century as Tryon Row. The old row was being torn down by the own? er. Oswald Otlendotfcr, ol the Staats Zrituug, German newspaper, to be replaced by a mag? nificent printing office, but the viaduct people have concluded to take it, which they nave a right lo do uuder their charter. The depot is to be & very spacicus affair inside, and orna? mental exteriorly. The cost will be some wher? near a hah" million ol dollars. The route of the road, as now laid out, will puss' through a number of important public buil? dings, and they wHl necessarily have to give way belore the knprovemenl. Among the victims will be Booth's splendid new theatre. Archbishop McCloskey's palace, St. Catharine's Convent, the new club-house ol the Beethoven Monnerchor^ the Fourteenth street theatre (Theatre Franca!?,) Dan Eryaut's Opera HouBe, the Cnurch of the Holy Innocents in Thirty-seventh street, the new Ritualistic Church of St. Mary the Virgin, in Forty-fifth street, the Olympic Theatre, on Broadway, Maillard's Hotel, Wheeler & Wilson's building, and propably St. George's Church, ol which Rev. Dr. Tyng is pastor. This programme is almost as'destructive as the great Commu? nist conflagrations in Paris. NYM. -Rats in a match locker fired the brig Curlew, at New York. Loss $2000.

Paris Again the French Capital-Visit of the Orleans Prince* to Thiers-The Financ?e - General 'European Sum? mary. . VERSAILLES, June 10. e The seat ol' the government will shortly be transferred to Paris.. The idea of a conven? tion has been abaudoned. Bodies will ? be ex~ bumed and buried beyond Fort Vanvres. The committee on the reorganization ol the army will favor compulsory service. DeJoln ville and d'Aumale visited Thiers and other officials. They were received with th? utmojst I"courtesy. Thiers allerwards returned the visit. The Princes, during these visits, formally de? clined seal? 'it the Assembly,, and disclaimed any ihtSutiOn of intriguing against the Re? public. The. official journal assures the people that deposits in the Bank of ^France are uninjured. Th? Minister of Finance, in presenting to the Assembly the bill making provision for the loan of one hundred millions sterling, urged payment of the war indemnity in order that France may be rid of the Germans. The Minister said he relied for success in raising of the loan upon foreign confidence in the ability of France to meet her obligations, and in the internal energy ot the nation. - He promised the exercise qf strict economy In all expendi? tures of the government. LONDON, June 10. Pans papers continue to uphold the admin? istration and policy of Thiers, and affirm that monarchy is a synonym for r?volution. They also appear to think the supplemental ?elec? tions nay charge the majority of the Assem? bly. The Times' editorial reviewing the qnestion of Canadian opposition to the treaty of Wash? ington, says the treaty sacrifices the interests of a smull community to the convenience' of j powerful StaieB. That portion of the Empire is made the scapegoat for the peace ot the." whole, and that the possessions ol the mari? time provinees have been bartered away. The Times, however, urges the acceptande/of | "The treaty by Canada as a cqmpensation lor the boon of American free trade, which ls rapidly gaining ground in the United States. The Marquis of Lorne and Princess Louise landed at Deal this morning,, on their return from their tour on ilw Continent. FLORENCE, June 10.

The Typographical Union adopted a resolu? tion providing that no money-?hall. underany circumstances, be endorsed on travelling cards. Fitzwilliams, of Washington, moved lo expunge n resolution passed by the Albany Convention in reference to the attempt to loree upon the Columbia Union L. F. Doug? lass, an avowed rat", &c. A n excited discus? sion ensued, the sentiment of the majority being evidently to lay thp matter on tue table. The "president finally decided that the motion to expunge could not be entertained. Mr. Fi!z williams, in a personal explanation, stated, In behalf of the Columbia Union, that they had never desired to force this negro question on the International Union. Two years ago. at Albany, a delegate irom the Columbia Union Introduced the subject without Instructions to that effect, and his motion was to relieve the Columbia Union of the ouus of having origina? ted the question. A resolution that the Albany Convention did not intend to censure the Washington Union, passed in reference to L. F. Douglass, was passed by a large majority. The convention then went Into secret session. The Union, before adjournment, adopted a resolution placing men and women on the same fooling in the profession. FR021 THE PACIFIC COAST.

The Keowee (Walhalla) Courier mentions a [ fine clover field- in that county, a specimen stalk, ol which measures lour and a haif feet in height. There was a larger attendance of the citi? zens of the county on sales-day than usual, sa?-s the Courier, resulting, doubtless, from the wet weather, preventing work in -the farm. Re? port makes the wheat crop a comparative failure. Corn looks well, but is threatened with Injury to lowlands irora foul, and wet. Tue sheriff sold several tracts ot land at good prices. The following is the result of sales : 86 acre6 Ar $1140; 100 acres for ?260; GOO acres for {99; 400 acres for $70; TnOncres for $200, and one storehouse and one-quarter acre lot in the Town ol" Walhalla lor $1550. . ' Abbeville. . ^ . The Abbeville Press dud. Banner publishes the following : "Two colored then, Geo. Beard and Willis Heard, were lodged .in jail on Mon? day last, under commitment from Esq. M.c Caslan, charged with robbery iobrehklng into Mr. W. D. Mar's store, at Calhoun's Mills, about two weeks ago. and abstracting about 3140 worth of goods. The stolen articles were lonnd in their possession." In regard to sales-day, lt says : "There was a small atttudance on sales-day last, and but Utile property was sold. 2G2J ncres of lund, tue properly of Mr.-Thoa. Robluson, was sold by the sheriff under order for foreclosure of mortgage, at $500-a buggy and carriage-also C bales of cotton at 14 cents per pound. Laurens. Considering that Laurens, the home of Joe Crews, has all along been considered lire very I hotbed of the Ku-Klux, the following parn I graph, from the Laurensville Herald, will scarcely prove palatable in the high places oi Radicalism : "Major Stewart has marching orders, and expects to leave here to-day with his com tuand. He goes to Newberry. Wnlle here the major showed himself a tnie soldier, aud by his courteous bearing won thc respect ol the community." The Herald publishes the order of thc coiir authorizing the sale ot the Lnttr.ens Railroad to the Greenville and Columbia Railroad Com pany. . . Greenville. The bonds of Greenville and Sp.irtanbnrg Counties, given in aid of the Air Line Rail? road, have been taken by the company at seventy-five oents in the dollar, says the Greenville Enterprise. The negotiation was made by General Easly, at the late meeting ol' directors In Charlotte. The very able article of our correspondent as to the validity of these bonds settles the question, it seems to us, arid demonstrates that lt would be useless to op? pose the right ot the county to levy a tax pay the interest. The Interest taken in the Air Line Road by the Central Pennsylvania In? sures Hs early completion. Greenville will soon be one ol the greatest highways of the United States. The road will bring emigration and wealth into the State. . Barnwell. The colored citizens of Barnwell Village are forming a hook and ladder company. The Sentinel says: "On Sunday night last Mr. Joseph W.

Item : "We learn that a lew day? ago two strange negro men appeared at a store at a place called Hamburg, In Marl? boro' County, between Gardner's Bluff and Bennellsvllle, and commenced trading?; when ihey settled for what they had purchased, one of them produced u large roll ol' grcenbucks, supposed to be several hundred dollars ; the other Immediately gave him a nudge, when they went lo the door and held a consultation; they came back to thecounler. having con? cealed the roll of.greenbacfcs and paid for thc. j articles bought from a roll of small bilis, pro " ducud from the vest pocket. On Inquiring they said they were from the tipper part ol Chesterfield County, near White's Store, and were going to Wilmington. Tne storekeeper saspeeted they were part of the gang that murdered Mr. Redfearn at White's Store some weeks ago, and Inquired il they had heard ol'that gentleman's murder; they said they had not, and left, going in thc direction of Wilmington. As ouiy about $500 has been recovered of the $2000 or $3000 supposed to haw* been In the possession oi Mr. Redlenrn at the lime ol' his murder, some suppose that these men were of the party who commuted the deed." Lancaster. The Lancaster Ledge!, In its last issue, say* : "It will be remembered that a coininiliee of gentlemen, representing a'large public meel? ina of Hie citizens of this county, walled upon Go'veruor Scott about two mocths ago, and requested, among other things, ihe removal ol' the arms in the possession ol the militia to Co? lumbia. The Governor assured the.commitlee, with everv consideration of respect, lhat their reqHesis would be Immediately granted, and thai, he would instruct General Anderson to send an officer at once to this county, with au? thority to collect them up. Mr. R. W. Cousart, acting under authority, published a notice a lew weeks ago calling In the arms, but oue ol' the companies refused to deliver np. We have just learned from those who have the best right to know, lhat at the time they were ordered to deliver them up they were advised by t'he same par'.y to disobey i li? order; and also that about '.wo weeks ago. each member of the Wax haw comuany received twenty rounds of ammunition. ' lt can be no longer denied that there is ammunition for these guns. We have seen it and can lay our hands upon :: at any lime. These are serious charges, and in giv? ing them publicity we are careful to state nothing butwhat can be proven. We do not heilere the Governor is to blame. We are led to think that the responsibility rests with Gen? eral ? nderson in not carrying out the orders of his Excellency. Tlte same paper, speaking o? last sales-day, says: "Quite a number oi persons wert lier? on Monday last, drawn hither by the races, &c. The RherifTdispoBed of two parcels oflcnd. 220 acres, belongiug to the estate of Neal Johnson, brought $-175-Edy Haile purchaser, 'jne lot, known as the ?Jail'lot,'situate IntheviHage. brought S405-J. W. Porter purchaser."' Georgetown. The Times, speaking oi "The Poor Farm" of Georgetown County, says: "We state on un? questionable authority that duriDg the setting of the grund jury oue of two oxen that ha-.l been purchased for the use of the Poor Farm waa slaughtered by Job Mazyck. one of the cojnmiaaioners, and that he subsequently kill ed the other-both ot which were sold Ia the market ia Georgeiowo. If the oxen were wanted to cultivate the crop at the farm, lt appears to ns they are particularly wanted at this season ol the year When grass is growing and the necessity lor ploughing is urgent, we learn that certainly one of the animals was killed without the knowledge or consent of the chairman of the board ol county commis? sioners. We also learn that so far no account has been rendered of the proceeds of the sales of the oxen.1' The grand Jury of Georgetown County last week made its presentment, and, as usual, found the Augean atable, otherwise k?own as the county commissioners' office, f?ll of all mauner ot filth. Here are a few of the things the grand jury did not like in ihe doings of Ihose officers : First: The commissioners have kept open accounts with several stores In the Town of Georgetown, in which their own private ac? counts and the accounts of those employed by them are inte*rmlxed with the accounts of the county; this necessarily leads to confusion. Sepond. There has been extravagance on the part of the board. We find Irom the accounts examined by us that the bills for medicines and medical pre? scriptions amount to seventeen hundred and seventeen dollars and three cents, within the stance of a little more than two years, and that Hie accounts for medical attendance in the same time amonnt to fifteen hundred and twenty-seven dollars and thirty cents, pre? senting the.strange anomaly of having the costs of medicine considerably larger than that ol medical attendance. - There has been retrenchment in this respect-as they have engaged ^physician's services at a salary, of live hundred dollars pgr annum, and thai for one hundred dollars they .had bought medi? cines which will last them over one year. We find the bills'of lumber amount to fif? teen hundred and thirty-one dollars and eighty-two cents. This amount appears to be large when we consider the amount of repairs on bridges, ?fcc., several complaints having been made to the grand jury In regard to the matter ol' bi lges and roads. We have btfen unable to find out what use hos been made of a large quantity of the dress? ed boards and first-class lumber which were charged in bills. Third. The commissioners, besides paying themselves the utmost that ls allowed them by the law as commissioners pC the county, have paid themselves two hundred and thirty one dollars and fifteen cents tor four thousand six hundred and twenty-three ' miles which they have travelled ra the service of the county. . Fourth. The amount .of eight dollars was paid by. the county for election tickets for the county commissioners, and that ode ol ihe commissioners who charged, and received pay, for the full amount for every day allowed by Hie General Assembly, presented a bill as su? perintendent of a road tor a part of the time charged ns doing duty as a commissioner. ' In regard lo the "Poor Farm,".the grand Jury says: ? .'.'. ''Although the- apothecary and other bills show that a liberal amount ol' stimulants In the way ot whiskey and brandy were pro? vided, testimony evidences that but a single bol tie ol spirits ever found its way to the farm." The grama jury find, upon careful exaralna Uon' of the records,-tho total amonnt ol the county commissioners'checks on the treasurer ot the county to be $34,322 75, of which the treasurer reports as paid $22 046 40, leaving unpaid and outstanding $12.276 35; to which add amount due on Poor Farm $3000; amount due ou jury tickets $1,334 25; due county com? missioners $600; deduct cash in haul ol clerk $90; which shows a balance of indebtedness of I $17.120 60; now add amount due school teach? ers $1,178 32, which' shows a grand total of $18.298 92. now due by the county. il DEMOCRAT ELECTED QOTERNOR OF NEW HAMPSHIRE.

The cotton movement shows a continued decrease, especially In the receipts, which are the smallest for any week since the heighth of the season. The exports are a little below last week, but "nearly double for the corre? sponding week last year. The receipts at all of the* ports have been 28,136 bales, against J0,402 lust week, 40,178 the previous week, and 45,067 three weeks since. The total re? ceipts since September are 3,821,180 bales, against 2,792,879 lor tho corresponding period of the previous year, showing an increase of 1,028,301 In favor of the present season. The exports frera afl Ihe ports have been 42,323 bales, against 22,962 last year. The total ex? ports lor tb? expired portion ot the cotton year bRve been 2,982.841 bales, against 1,982, 341 for the same time last year. The stock at ad of the ports amounts to 235,508 bales, against 263,886 for the same time last year. The stooks al all of the interior towns amounts to 21.511 balee, against 48,324 last year. The stock in Liverpool amounts to 914,000 bales, against 603,000 last year. The American cot? ton afloat Jor Great Britain amounts to 206, 000 bales, against 155,000 last year. The Tndlan cotlon afloat for Europe amounts to 415,147 bales, against 328,180 last year. The weather South has been rainy in some sections. Severe storms visited portions of Louisiana, Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama and North and South Carolina. These have done much damage to ihe growing plant, and,un? doubtedly decreased the yield of coitou. South? ern planters have had nothing but reverses and drawbacks since the growing crop was planted, and it would seem from the weekiy reports of weather that rain enough had falleD in the Southern States to deluge the whole country. These reports must be exaggerated to some extent, because if true in detail, then it would be unreasonable to expect anything out a tdtal failure of the cotton crop. THE CHARLESTON STEAMSHIPS_Now mat ihe season has arrived when numbers of Southerners, who are fortunate enough to pos? sess the ways and means wherewith to travel, will start for the North, we take this occasion to call the attention of the travelling public to the Charleston line ot steamships, and es* pecinlly to the line ol which Mr, William A. Courtenay, ; ' Charleston, is the agent. The vessels ol' the line" that Mr. Courtenay repre? sents have iron hhllsv and their Btate-rooms are large, airy, and.all above deck, increasing the comfort of a sea voyage immeasurably. Tue "Georgia," or this Hue, 1B the finest vessel that leaves New York. Her cabin is all that money, taste and skill could make it, while her tables are loaded with everything that the New York and Charleston markets can fur? nish. Fur comfort, speed and safety, we commend this line to the travelling public Selma {Ala.) Times. ! . TRADE OE MA TC H M'A KI VG. English Speculations In Love Affairs The Mode and Profits. We learn from our London weekly contem? porary, the Spectator, that a new line of jour? nalistic adventure has b?t?n recently opened in the metropolis. The newsboys have, lt seems, r?ceutly taken to selling all along the Strand a publication called the Matrimonial News. This paper ls. sold at the extravagant price of twopence. It is "perfectly respectable," but contains nothing save advertisements, and those ot one kind alone-namely, the tenders of ladles and gentlemen who desire to get married; The Spectator conceives that the mass ol' the 'enders in the-Matrimonial News are "honest, thick-sklnnedjadvertlsements for oods-namely, husbands and wives-Inserted y persons who really want the articles they profess to want." OUT contemporary' discusses the matter with becoming gravity, but fails to satisfy himself as to the proper explanation of the phenomenon; He Ands many excuses for the short and -easy method ol courtship, yet aller all seems to think that "marriage is a matter ol too much worth to be dealt with, by' attorneyshlp." . "What, for example," he asks, "can be the meaning- of this- advertise ment ?" A gentleman holding the tank of major in the Indian army, having an Income of ?1200 per an? num, wishes to meet with a lady, aged from twenty-live to thirty, who would not object to go to India In a few months.- She must be a la.iv by birth and' education, musical, or au affectionate disposition, who could Appreciate a kind husband, with private meacs, which would be settled upon herself. As this ts a oona floe advertisement,, every Inquiry will be accorded to the family so? licitor., The major, lt is true, may be bashful or lan? guid, or is, perhaps, under orders to join; hut what can bj possibility be the meaning ol this other the Spectator fails to realize : ?? A gentleman-, aged thirty-seven, barrlster-at law,TioldlDg avery Imp rtant appointment (up? wards of ?1500 a year) in her Majesty's civil ser? vice, and hafting early prospects of yet higher distinction, would be happy to correspond with a lady (not a widow,) Who would appreciate a really good husband. This ad vertisernent being genuine, the advertiser will afford the utmost facility for any inquiry through th? agency of solicitors. There is infinite variety in the articles of' fered to public competition. It may, perhaps, amuse our readers, possibly instruct some of them, U we give a few specimens culled ready to our hand by the Spectator. Thus: . A yonog merchant In Manchester, aged twenty* four, and having a comfortable Income wants to settle; he would like a young lady about twenty, fair and nice looking; mast ne of good family and well educated. Here ls another of the most business-like kind : ?A gentleman, aged about fifty, and having an income of about ?500 a year, wuuld lrke" to corres poud with some lady of a suitable age and posi? tion. And another, in which the advertiser posi? tively belongs to the class most "run after" by . marriageable young women, is a man whp bas only to pick and choose among the embroid? ered- slippers sent to him: A clergyman, aged twenty-eight, with a nice irving, good residence ana well connected, wishes to ni arr? anti would like to correspond with a young lady under thirty years rf age, and having so me pr! vate property o? her own. A clergyman, tall. darts, handsome, aged about thirty, Whose present income ls ?U0, would like to correspond with a loveable lady, from twenty to thirty-five years of age, with some m. ans In her own right. He would like to exchange caines with 747 ..r491. A gentleman, aged thirty-six, with a good busi? ness anda nice p?rrate property, would like'to correspond with,come nice yonng lady, ander thirty, with a view to marriage. A clergyman of the Established Church, aged twenty six, tall and good looking, but with only ?100 per annum, wishes to marry, and would like to correspond with a young lady of good family, pleasing appearance and some good means. A gentleman, aged thirty five, highly connected, and Tn business as a wine merchant, would like tn correspond with Borne young lauy.hnder thirty. He has a good income and a private country house. A gentleman, twenty-nine years of age, of mod? erate height, considered good looking,- and hav? ing an Income of ?400 a year, would like to cor? respond with some yonng lady of good family, ander thirty, with a vieajto marriage. A young gentleman, twenty.seven, Christean principie?, highly ivspectcil, good appearance, and healthy, wuuld like to correspond with a sen? sible young lady, with a view to matrimony, Will No. 821 obllce? These tempting offers have all been taken almost at random'irom a single number of the Matrimonial News, barely a week old. The Spectator considers the demonstra!km to be "a, curious leature in the society ol 1671." The proposals ol the fair portion of the customers of the Matrimonial News are simple In their features. All that ls asked is "means" and "kindness." The men require youth and good looks-, ladles are usually content with a man if he be "tall;" seldom making any condition as to age or beauty. A young lady, aged twenty-five, well connected, accomplished and of good appearance, wonld cor? respond with a gentleman having means to main? tain a wife. She has no property, but ls of an affectionate disposition, ami would devote herself to the interests of a kind husband. A yonng lady, under twenty-five, of good-family and education, amiable, cheerful, warm hearted and loveable, would like to corre-pond with some gentleman with comfortable rut aim, willing to marry a lady on the basis of love only. She has. no money.' ' It ls a maxim el political economy that .de? mand brings supply, and, possibly, the "strong necessity ol loving" may have produced the Matrimonial News, It ls no lees a true maxim ; that supply creates demand, and If the Matri? monial News lives and thrives the marriage registrars ol' England may soon expect to drive a roaring.trade. THE RABBINICAL CONFERENCE. CINCINNATI, June 10.. Tne Rabbinical Conference adopted a resolu? tion declaring itself permanent. All rabbis, preachers, religious teachers and readers are eligible to membership. Drs. Llllenthal. Wise, .Eppstein, Wechtler, Sonneschelm and Welsch, were appointed ? commut?e. Adjourned.

Both struggled violently and had to be carried to the scaffold. -Japan will send specimens of all industries to the coming Mechanics' Institute Fair, at San Francisco. PROPERTY QUALIFICATION TO VOTE FOR COUNTY STATE SENATOR,-The Greenville En? terprise in its last issue, speaking of this modi? fication of the constitution, says : lithe press and leading men of this State would advocate this measure, in our opinion it would be made a part of the constitution. Its justice and fairness and necessity, to pro? tect the property and taxpayers ol Ihe Slate, is so obvious lliat we believe it wonld not be strenuously opposed by the influential men of the political majority in South Carolina. It would wrong no one, and leave every citizen with the full rights of suffrage lor every other representative und officer of the State and the Uniied States that he now possesses. It would only secure the great priuclple of taxa? tion and representation united, ihe principle upon which the Republic of the Uniteu States wai) originally founded. Now is a favorable time to agitate ibis measure beiore the people. It will test the sincerity of those who profess a willingness to protect all classes, and who pronounce themselves opposed to corruption. The?ate taxpayers' convention ignored the proposition. Cumulative voting seemed to be their only plan, but that will tail to accom? plish the end desired, although good may come ol iL JUST RECEIVED, CATAWBA GRAPE PILLS, (Helmbol?'s,) . _ By DR. H.
