f A Song tn Jane. Tue brook went rippling, rippling, Over the pebbles in Jone, Tbrongb reeds and rushes it wound itt way, Humming a low, sweet tune. The little forget-me-not listened, And her bine eye beamed less bright, And the Btartled illy ope'd wider Her dowers of gleaming white. O brook I O brook I now tell me What thou to the dowers didst sa; ? But the brook, still rippling, rippling, Went lazily on lu way. The wind went sighing, sighing, Through the tali trees in Jnne. And the chestnut blossoms shivered As lt Bang its mourn ful tune. The dove cooed ever more gently AS the whispering wind passed by. And the linnet's note sounded softer, And sadder the bittern's cry. O wind IO wind ! now tell me What thou to the birds didst say ? But the wind, still sighing, sighing, Through' the lorest stole away. My heart was beating, beating, Faster that day in June, And a voice within lt murmured A dreamy, dirge-like tnne. O heart l O heart l cow tell me * What the voice to thee doth say ? And my heart did sadly answer, "All things must pass away." And the brook went rippling, rippling:, The wind sighed over the lea. But the voice in my heart sounded sweeter The longer lt sang to me. THE AIR LINE ROAD. Spartanborg Looks for a Good Time Coming. [FROM OUR OWU CORRESPONDENT.] ?SPARTAN mr RG, y. c., June 12. nnual meeting of the stockholders of the Atlanta and Richmond Air Line It nil way was held at this place to-day. No change has been made in president and directors. The president's report was-satisfactory and well received. The early completion of the road ls a fixed fact, and arrangements are made, financially and otherwise, to complete the road through at as early a period as possible. The iron for the road was commenced being laid at this place to meet the work on the Charlotte end to-day. Our town Is alive at the expectation ol the arrival of the cars by the 1st of November. Four large new brick stores on the public square are just completing, two more ready to commence. Prospects gener? ally advancing, and belter times fondly antici? pated. _MARSH. THE GROWING CEOPS. Oconee. The Walhalla Courier says: "A heavy gale passed over Walhalla on Sunday at 12 M., at? tended with sufficient rain to wet the house? tops. On Monday morning light showers fell, with promises o? general rains, but by the afternoon high dry winds had risen and scat? tered every prospect of min. About Walhalla we were very dry on the 12th." Union. The Times ays: -'Since our iast frequent fine showers have visited our county. From what we can learn and see cotton generally ls doing well. In fact, we have heard many planters say they never saw belter prospects for a fine crop at this time of the year. Corn ls also doing well. Wheat has tnrned out fully as well as we reported it would last week. The ears are full and the grain plump. There ls no doubt that the quality of wheat this year will be better than for many years belore. Oats in many places not worth cutting." . Aiken ?nd Barnwell. The Tribune says: -The cotton and corn crops in the vicinity of Aiken are looking ex? cellently. The refreshing shower we had on Monday night came in due time. We notice, also, that the crops between Aiken and Slack vine, and particularly immediately .around Winlaton, are nourishing, and In good condi? tion. Perhaps no section ot the State presents a fairer prospect for a good yield of cotton, and nowhere do the tanners pay more atten? tion to the system ot culture, good fences, I Ac." Georgetown. . The* Times says: "The very hot weather ha/, been damaging to the gardens and upland crone, and, we regret to say, has not been of j any advantage to the tide lands, for, witb the ? ho? weather and the drought, an army of cater? pillars have attacked and made serious in? roads on the rice crop. On Samplt, Peedee, Wac ?maw and San tee we learn that serious and we fear irreparable damage has been done to the rice, and the misfortune is that the tides have been so short that bul few planters have been able to get water enough to top the growing crop, and thus measurably destroy the caterpillar. The appearance of j the caterpillar at this season of the year must | necessarily make the rice crop of this year, m this locality, a short one." Laurens. . Thc Herald says : "During the past week several refreshing showers have fallen In dif? ferent parts of the co uni y. Immediately at this place a fine shower fell on last Sunday, and another again on Monday, but they were not genera], many portions of the county be? ing still dry and suffering. Wheat ls being harvested, and so far as we bavo been able to learn the yield will be small-not an "aver? age crop," though belter than was atone time anticipated. Great complaint Is made as to wheat being thin on the ground, though this is rather the sower's fault than otherwise. We have no doubt the crop ls short, yet lt is rare that one never hears a farmer acknowledge having made an abundant crop. The oat crop is also Bhort." JOTTINGS ABOUT THE STATE. -Nelson Joyner has been appointed by Governor Scott a trial Justice for Charleston County. -Senator Sprague, of Rhode Island, arrived in Columbia on Saturday, and ls the guest of Colonel 8. i. Pearce. -Green JOT J has appeared In the Aiken vegetable markets, and cherries are being shipped In small quantities to New York. -The holy rite of confirmation was adminis? tered In Trinity Church, Columbia, yesterday by Bishop Howe. -Mr. C. M. Maui, while working on a house near Aiken, narrowly escaped a sun-stroke on Thursday last He was so effected by the heat that he lost all consciousness, and came very near falling off the house. -Owing to the non-payment of the bill by the State officials, the gas was shut of from the statehouse, and the massive-looking granite pile presented a gloomy appearance : Thursday night. -The Governor has pardoned Henry Jones and Harry Cooper, convicted of arson, at the \ March term, 1872, of the Court of General Ses? sions for Darlington County, the principal witness against them having confessed that he swore falsely at their trial. -The Orangeburg News Bays: "The analysis made by. Dra. Shepard and Geddings, ol Charleston, of the stomachs of Mr. W. L. W. Riley's wife and children, resulted negatively, as the doctors style it-that ls, there was no trace lound of any poison whatever. The doctor's bills for the examination amounted to $650." fc-Tho Georgetown Times says: "The race between the Brothers Henning was tried over on Friday last, when Mr. Edward Henning re? covered the laurels he had lost the week be? fore, ile beat the Lily four seconds, or near? ly two lengths. We learn that the crews will be swapped and another race ran." -A difficulty occurred between two freed? men at Calmese's Old Quarter, in Laurens County, on last Friday, In which a negro by the name of Amos Young shot and killed another named Isaac Baiter. ' ' A warrant was promptly issued by Trial Justice Johnson, but Young has not been arrested. The cause of the difficulty, we learn, was jealousy. THE REVENUE BOND SCRIP. Treasurer Parker Resists an Examina? tion. [From the Colombia Carolinian.] The cases under' which the two injunc? tions were Issued last week restraining the State and county treasurers from receiv? ing bond scrip and treasury certificates for taxes, and also enjoining the county treasu? rers from paying to the order of the State treasurer the proceeds of taxes collected by them for State purposes, are likely to be fur? ther complicated. Judge Willard a lew days since made an order, that testimony In the case should be taken before John T. Rhett, Esq., and lt was arranged to do so yesterday, but, at tbe time appointed, Parker, who does not intend to submit to an investigation which IB likely to disclose any ol the numerous frauds and abuses which the archives of his office, and the search? ing oral examination ol himself and ther witnesses ls likely to disclose, promptly oved by his counsel to vacate the order for examination made by Judge Willard. The grounds ol this motion, it ls understood, lie in objection to the Jurisdiction of Judge Wil? lard in the premises, and we do not doubt that the motion will cause delay, though it may not eventually deliver the culprit from the predicament Into which his financial fiascoes have led him. It would be a singular instance of poetic Justice if this notorious financier should soon find himself caught between the upper and nether millstones of his abettors aud his dupes, and be ground to powder. These be very ofieu the "mills ol the gods" to accomplish what cannot be reached by human ingenuity and wisdom. THE GRAPES ARE SOUR. [From the Laurens Herald. ] Judge Orr expects no further honors or sup? port at the hands of his lormer white iriends in South Carolina, nor need he expect any. He perhaps wants no such honors as he re? ceived in the past. It is natural that he should not, tor grapes out ol reach are generally sour. _ JUDGE ORR AT PHILADELPHIA. [From thc Georgetown Times ] It may be that Judge Orr possesses that Roman firmness and patriotism which lnduoe him to order his own son to disgraceful death. But we hardly think so. We think he went out of the way in Philadelphia to laud the worst acts of tyranny and oppression that the present century haB witnessed, by extolling the Ku-Elux laws and praising General Grant for his clemency In locking iu bastlies those who were his first friends and his present j neighbors. No one knows better than Judge Orr that in all these cases the Juries, both grand and petit, were packed not to try but to convict; and he also knows, thal out of more than five hundred cases submitted to the grand jury, the unprecedented and hitherto unheard re-1 snit was, that true bills were found against each and every one of them. And yet with these facts beiore him he maligns the State, rejoices in the bitter punishment ol his neigh? bors, and in loud sounding terms praises the despotic band that puls upon them a deep and humiliating degradation. Our personal rela? tions to Judge Orr make us deeply regret that < he should feel called upon to take a course so [ damaging to him as a man and as one of the administrators of the laws of this State.
