TO ADVERTISERS. ^The proprietors of THE NEWS and The Cou? rier find lt indispensable to trie accurate and prompt management of their business), and for the protection ol advertisers, that the practice of sending advertisements irom one newspaper office to the other be discontinued. They, therefore, give notice that no advertise? ments received at the one office will, in any case, be sent to the other. At the same time they beg leave to request advertisers to hand lu their favors at as early an hour as possible, in order to facilitate their proper arrange-1 ment. _ _ THE GROWING CROPS. Reports from oar Correspondents? YORK. Our correspondent J. M. I., writing from Bock Hill, on the 24th, says: 1. The area In cotton is, we think, about the { same as In 1871; in some Instances lt ls larger, ia others smaller. 2. The stand ot cotton was very bad until within the past lew days, when an improve? ment resulted from occasional showers, but there ls still complaint, many sections need? ing more rain. AB compared with 1871 the stand ls not generally so good, nor can the prospect be regarded as any better, lsasmuch as the lateness ot the coming np will make a good yield dependant upon a late fall. 3. Corn and wheat are fully equal.in al! re? spects to 1871. Oats are fully equal ia area, and promise as poor a yield as last year, owing to toe drought, which continues in many neighborhoods. 4. Tn ls section never does produce a suffi? ciency of grain. The Indications are that quite as much will be produced this year as In 1871. 6. Tho quantity of fertilizers used ls much ? larger this year than 1871-Increase say about j tonyj*t cant. 6. The cost of the cotton crop this year, we think, may be about ten per cent, greater I than 1871, owing chiefly to large increase of fertilizers. CLARENDON. Our correspondent T. A. G., writing from Manning on the 21st, says: 1. The area planted la cotton exceeds that j of last year by about ten per cent., and that in [ grain is reduced in tne same proportion. 2. The backwardness of the spring delayed the planting of crops until late la the season, and the advent Ol seasonable weather, la which the crops were generally planted, was J followed Immediately by a dr 'ghi which has j In many instances prevented, t ?en to the pre? sent time, a good stand ol cotton. Abundant j rains have fallen w.tnia the past few days, and, with a continuance of favorable weather, we may recover the effects of the carly drought. 3. Last year, with the use ol not more than one-half the quantity of commercial fertilizers used this season, an ample supply ol grain was made to supply the wants ol this cotiniy, but as our success this year depends almost en? tirely upon luture contingencies over which we caa exercise no control, the facts given af-1 ford all the information we can give at | present. 4. The cost of the crop will not be materially affected except by the increased use of fertil? izers, which, with favorable seasons and good cul ti vsi ion, will, I have no doubt, prove to be a good investment. Reports of trie Rural Press. The Laure ns vii le Herald says: "Since our last issue, the long drought has been pari lal'y broften. There led ot this place on Thursday night, lClb, a very refreshing shower, though lt seems to nave been partial, extending in so me directions scarcely a mile. On last Fri? day, however, raia here fell lu copious show? ers; but they, too, . were partial-some sec? tions of the county being still dry and suffer? ing lor want of rain; indeed, we are even now wanting rain at this place, the high, dry winds since the rain fell having dried nie ground rapidly. Tne present prospect or the growing crop is discouraging, i he stands of | both cora and colton are poor, corn especially, particularly upon stubble lands. Wheat Is ra? ther more- promising, backward, but in a healthy condition. Oats need rain, bu; wini bounlitul seasons this crop may be brought up j to an average yield. The peach crop promises an abundant yield. Apples do not promise so veil." The Union Times says : "The crop pros? pects in this county are gloomy. It is aow nearly six weeks sluce we bad a rain, In this Immediate section, sufficient to lay the dust. Cotton,.planted since the dry spell Bet In, is struggling through the hard surface ot the soil. Alt agree that If the dry weather contin? ues teu days longer, the colton will be ruined beyond the power ot alter seasons to recover lt. Cora on the uplands look bad. Wheat re? quires rain to make -a lair yield. Oats are Buffering greatly. Gardens are parched up. Planters, generally, look despondent, while the United States marshals are active, pros? perous and jubilant over the g?n?ral terror they Inspire, and the number ot arrests they are making." The Walhalla Courier says: uWe had last j week a very good rain, which was much needed. The growing crops are in good con-1 dillon, and promise favorably. Oats are low J and light from spring drougot. Wheat is not - good, and but Utile bas been sown." . The Cheraw Democrat says: "On Saturday 4kfj?rnoon last, and again ou Wednesday afternoon, we were visited with abundant rains. Ou Wednesday the raia was accom? panied by high winds, which did considerable damage to shade trees and-fences; and we learn that on a plaatatiou about two and a half miles below Cheraw, a bara was blown down, severely Injuring a colored woman, and killing a horse belonging to Mr. William Goodwin.* WHO WROTH THIS CONSTITUTION ? Interesting Facts that Carolinians * Ought io Know. The following communication, which we copy from the May number of the Southern Magazine, will be read with deep Interest by every South Carolinian: To the Editor of the Southern Magazine: Stu - Having read with much interest a re- J cent communication io a dally paper on the | subject of the authorship ol the United Slates Constitution, I have carefully examined the Journals of the great convention which framed and adopted that illustrious contract and form of government, and bavt* verified the correct? ness of the statements adduced In that article, viz: 1st, that the original brief draft or plan of | a federal constitution was, on 29th May, 1787, presented to the convention by that distin? guished lawyer. Charles Plockney, af South Carolina: 2d, that the complete report ol Ihe present Conatltuilou of the United States was written, and on 6ih August, 1787, submitted to the convention by the chairman ol a special ? committee, ihe eminent statesman and juriot, John Rutledge of South Carolina, who bad been chiet-justlce under the old Confederation, ano?who had, In ii ie first convention of the Colonies (held in New York in October 1765, and called the "Stamp Act Congress"! writ-j ten the celeoraied .memorial to Parliament, and afterwards the Coustliutlon of South Carolina, of which seperate sovereign State he was President Irom 1773 to 1778, and was after? wards, la 1795, chlel Justice of the United States. The descendants of those two distin? guished statesmen have claimed lor South Carolina, that her we)l-kn?wn interpretation (being that of Its author,) as weil as that of] Ihe great statesmen Calhoun, McDulSe, Pres? ton, Hamilton and others of South Carolina's ablest men, ls to be considered (like that also o.' Jefferson and Madison) and to bo accepted as the true construction. This ls a matter ol great Importance to the South, and particu? larly to South Carolina, where lt has always j been contended that the author ol the consti? tution must have known more of the true meaning ot his own production than any other mao, and where his trieuds and descendants weil know that he always claimed the perfect right of any State of this confederacy of re publics lo leave the partnership In the same manner as each had entered lt, viz: by the action ol the primordial organic conven? tion ol the people of each separate Slate, (wherein alone the true sovereignty resides,) being the supreme constitution-making gov-1 eroment-msking power. The separate pri? mordial conventions ot the States of New York, Virginia and Rhode Island, in adopting and ratifying the United Stales Cousiiiutlou, expressly declared that they "reserved lo themselves the right to reassume the powers delegated whenever they should ba per? verted to the Injury ol their pe3ple"-ln other words, thfc absolute right ot secession, which was thus first asserted and maioialned by the Sfcte of New York as her reserved and sover? eign right. ia rega,d to the authorship of the constitu-1 tlon, tt ia Indeed a remarkable fact that this most important question should hare been so completely neglected aud Iguored, and that credit should never have been given to lhe distinguished Rutledge, ot Soin h Carolina, tor the composition and completion ol the most admirable form and system o? govern? ment (before its recent destruction) that was ever devised by the wisdom of man; while the author of the Declaration of Independence has been almost deLtted for that mere declara? tion of liberty and separation from the moth? er country-a paper certainly far inferior to his other great declaration of the sovereign rights of the States contained In his celeb, au-d Kentucky montions of 1798-9. The author? ship ol the United States constitution has been usually and without <* no'derailon attributed to Madison, who was . "the lather of the constitution;" which designation has led to the belief that this great production had been composed and written by him, whereas the troth ls that (as shown by the journals of ? the convention) he was not even upon the committee which framed aud reported tho constitution, but was (as himself declares) so constantly occupied in writing his own Journal and commentaries that he had not lime even to participate to any extent in the debates of I the convention. The title of " father of the constitution" was bestowed upon Mr. Madison for the following rea? sons : 1st, because he had ^01 rat pro- ? posed the calling of the convention to frame that instrument; 2d, because he had so ear? nestly and Industriously advocated it in his able essays In that admirable work called the Federalist; 3d, because he had so ably sup? ported and carried its adoption in the Virginia Convention against the united opposition ot all the other most distinguished men of Vir? ginia, amongst whom was that great orator and statesman Patrick Henry, who with won? derful prescience and prophetic vision pre? dicted the very infamous stale of things that I now exists, and declared that if the constitu? tion as lt stood should be adopted without fort her restrictions upon the general govern? ment, lt would result (as lt has) in a few lead? ing and designing demagogues inducing Con? gress to usurp all power, and to destroy the prerogatives ot the Executive and the Judici? ary. It may be regarded as one of the signs of the degeneracy and demoralization ol the present era that tho importance and value of j the constitution in its original purity are so utterly disregarded, and that consequently Its authorship should be equally ignored and neglected. Still lt is with a lingering hope that there may bo yet some few patriotic statesmen and scholars who would be ashamed of being ignorant ot the authorship ot the greatest political production of our country, and who would wish to be able to answer the constantly repeated inquiry ol foreigners, "Who wrote the constitution of your country?"
