A BUDGET OF EDOEFIELD if EWS.
T>ie Prospect of the Wheat, Oat, Corn
and Cotton Crops-Suggestions lo
Farmers-Kdgelielcl Fnrly?two Years
Ago-Wno now Survive-A Good Joke.
[FROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]
ELMWOOD, EDGEFIELD, 8. C., June 19.
The weather continues dry and hot, and
only a little rain has fallen i i many places
since the first ol April last, while a few others,
more blessed, have had quite a sufficiency.
The wheat crops are nearly all housed in ex?
cellent order, none being injured by rain,
and the yield will be double that cf last year,
and of a lar superior quality, as the year suit?
ed this crop admirably, there being very lil tie
rain since lt commenced beading. The only
deficiency ls lu the quantity of land sown, as
the past lull was very uuiavorable for the
sowing of wheat, there being so much rain.
Butthose that did sow will get well paid for
their labor this year in quantity and quality,
as I saw a few days ago a load ol new wheat
ground nt the mills of the Rev. John Trapp,
in this county, near Ninety-six depot, that
could not be excelled by any ot the Augusta
mills, as the yield was fully lorty pounds ol
excellent flour to the bushel. The reverse is
true with the oat crop. What was life to one
was death to the other. The dry weather i
that brought the wheat crop to such a state of |
perfection nearly ruined the oat crop, as only
a lew favorable localities will malte a suffi?
ciency for seed, and a greater portion of this
orop will be pastured upon, not getting high
enough for the scythe. I think planters
Bhonld plant two-tuirds of this crop in the
lal), say the 1st of October, and the other
third in the spring, os we formerly did previ?
ous to emancipation, and I am certain we will
succeed belter, as I have noticed for many
years past, and including the present year,
thaJJJ the fall oats are far superior to those
sown in the spring, even it the former
should half be killed during the winter. As I
Baid before, this crop was mostly sown in the
fall, and why ls lt not done BO now ? I think
lt ls mostly because we do not employ our
laborers until the end of the year; and while
we do thia, it will be bard for us to huve our
grain sown in the fall, because the laborer
aoes not leel under obligation to sow the
the grain crop in the l'ail, not knowing
whether he will remain upon the place the
ensuing year or not. And why n^t change
the programme and employ him earlier, say
ihe first of September or October?
The colton crop ls ten per cent, belter than
last year, and about ten per cent, more plant?
ed. Some localities are doflcient in stands,
but I doubt whether it will shorten the crop
much, if any. as a half a stand frequently turns
out as well as a whole stand, as muny planters
will leave their cotton too thick when there ls
a good stand. I have seen some very fine
fields of cotton, equal to the finest since the
'war, in and around Edgefield Village and Im?
mediately near the Columbia and Augusta
Railroad. Commercial manures will pay the
?iresent year from appearances now, and labor ]
s cheaper than last year.
The corn crop will not vary mach in quanti?
ty planted the present year'from that of last
>ear. The drought has not injured it much
yet, but should il continue into July will soon
cause a great deficiency. This crop is in fine
condition for rain now, being well cultivated
up to this date, and, in fact, lt has been the
best year to cultivate a crop that we have
had since the war, as the three past months
have been so very dry, and no crop will be in?
jured with grass where the least ludustry bas
been used by the cultivator. The gardens
have all suffered more or less, and very few
have such vegetables as we bad last year.
Our district is all quiet. AU ls peace with
us at thia time. Perhaps it might Interest
you to mention the most prominent men that
took an Interest In EdgeQeld forty-two years
agoUand to see how many yet remain to tell
instale now, viz: Allen Addison, Benjamin
Frazier, Howard Burt, James Terry,
Daniel Bird, F. W. PickenB, Edmund
Bacon, Jack Jeter, A. P. Butler, P. H.
Butler. W. B. Johnson, M. Laborde,
Peter Laborde. Charles Goodwin, Daniel Hol?
land, Avery Bland, Whitfield Brooks, W. F.
Duri8oe, Harvey Drake, Reuben Drake, Jack
Glasscock, John Simkins, Eldrid Slmklns,
George L. Penn, C. Penn, Edmund Belcher,
J. F. Adams, John Bausket, Samuel Stafford,
M. Hims, Francis Ward law, and others that
cannot be brought to mv memory at this time.
Npw, how many of these dear old friends will
we meet in the streets to-day ? Only two
George L. Penn and W. F. Durlsoe-and only
four are alive to my knowledge, at this time,
viz., the two meatloced above, and M. La?
borde, now In Columbia, S. G., and Edmund
Bacon, now in Greenville. 8. C. All the rest
are gone to their long homes. Mr. George L.
Penn was a merchant then, and continues the
same business to-day, having during these
years made a fortune and lost lt, and ls now in
a fair way ot making another. Mr. W. F. Du?
rlsoe was the founder of the Edgefield Adver?
tiser, but bas since given lt up to bis eldest
eon, D. B. Durlsoe, who hos brought lt to its
present standing. The old man Durisoe has
raised a large family ot children, and has
filled an Important office as ordinary for seve?
ral years, and bas recently come out for the
same office, and being very popular with the
people will be bard to beat. Old as he is, he
ne is fond of making a crowd laugh, and can tell
a Joke without a smile. Here is his last: Your J
correspondent, a lew weeks ago, was talking
with a lew gentlemen upon the public park
about crops, Ac., when Durlsoe came up, and
one asked him the news. "Why," says he,
"have you not heard of the Columbia and
Augusta Railroad train running off the Savan?
nah bridge this morniDg ?" Ail being struck
with astonishment, Immediately inquired how
many were drowned or otherwise injured.
'.Not one," was his reply, "the train just run
on and run off the bridge, hurling no one."
All soon comprehended the joke, and he
walked OD. ^ SENEX.
THE WEATHER AND CROPS.
A. Destructive Hall Storm.
Mr. H. Grate, writing from Chesterfield
Courthouse on the 19th, says: "A most de?
structive hall storm passed a few miles north
of thia place on Saturday evening, 16th Inst.,
accompanied with a tornado, prostrating al?
most everything in Its track. The crops ol
corn and cotton on many larms are complete?
ly ruined, nouses and fences blown down, and
large numbers of poultry killed. Many of the
hailstones were as large as teacups, and gene?
rally as large as guinea eggs. Some fine fields
of cotton, Just beginning to bloom, are BO com?
pletely wrecked that not a green leal can be
lound on them. Several eye-witnesses say
that the bark was knocked off o? large oak and
pine trees by the hail."
Storms 1st Abbeville.
The Press says : "A violent storm of wind
and hall visited the lower section ol our dis?
trict on Saturday, doing much Injury to the
crops, and Inflicting serious injuries to the
family of Mr. David Dowtin of that section.
On Saturday we were visited with copious
showers of much needed rain, which have re?
vived farming operations. The rains have,
we learn, been very general, but some sec?
tions are still dry. In the neighborhood of ]
Lowndesvllle especially, lt is stlil very dry,
and the crops are suffering."
The Medium says : "The wheat and oats
crops have generally been harvested, and they
arte said to be very fine. Where the stand ol
wueat was good the crop is better than it has
been for years. The fall oats are good; are
turmng out well."
A Blow In Sumter.
The News sayB : "We learn that on Friday
night, the 14th- Instant, the Eishopvltie coun?
try was visited by a heavy storm of wind and
rain. We have heard ol no damage by it fur?
ther than the uprooting of the large oak in
front of Mr. Edmund Stuckey's residence."
JOTTINGS ABOUT THE STATE.
-A grange of tbe patrons of husbandry has
been organized in Newberry.
-At the Edgefield Criminal Court of this
term, no one was convicted-something almost
unprecedented in Edgefield.
-Two negroes, Tom Goss and Patrick West,
fought in Edgefield on the 14th instant, near
Ridge Spring. Result : Goss received four
pistol balls in Lead, neck and shoulders, of
which wounds he uas since died. Palrick
escaped uninjured, but has since been arrest?
ed, and was brought to jail on Sunday last by
a party of colored' men.
-A Batesvllle correspondent of the Edge
field Advertiser says : "Our village was much
startled on yesterday morning by the sudden
news of the death of Mr. Mark Ridge?, the
eldest son ol Joel Ridgell, deceased, which
was the result of a gnn shot wound inflicted
by bis own hand, at the house of his brother,
?i Mr. John Ridgell. For a number ol days pre
l vious to his death ne had been under the Influ
fr. ence of strong drink, which lr seemed worked
m8 his destruction. He was found early in the
Rnjnornlng lvlng dead in Mr. John Rldgell's
?orfibase, having been shot in the head, a Colt's
"ilistol lying "-.?er his leg." On the afternoon
leyljf Tuesd^j, 4th Instant, on the plantation of
' Captain Thos. Bates, near this place, while a
storm was approaching, lour ot his field bands
took shelter under an oak tree, which was
shortly aller struck by lightning. One of the
party was killed Instantly, two others were
eeriously hurt, while the remaining one re?
ceived iiul- or no injury. The name of the
colored man killed was Jake Coleman.
