Tbc Ivory Gate. Mortimer Collins, the English post, has sent ~4>at a volume ot pieces under the title, uThe Men of Strange Meetings," some of which are unique. The following is an example ol the spirit and method of his muse: When, loved by poet and painter, The sunrise flus the sky. When night's gold urns grow fainter And lu depths of amber die; When the morn-breez . tstlrs tue curtain, Bearing an odorous freight, Then visions strange uncertain, Poor thick through the Ivory Gate. Then the oars of Ithaca dip so Silently luto the sea. That they wake not sad Calypso, And the hero wanders free. He breasts the ocean-furrows. At war with the words of Fate, And the bine tide's low susnrrus Cornea np to the ivory Gate. Or, clad in the hide or leopard, 'Mid Ida'a freshest dews, Paris, theTeucrtan shepherd, His Bweet Ouone woos. On the thought or ber coming bridal Unuttered joy doth wa.t, W bile t he tune of the false one's ldy l Rings sort through the Ivory Gate. Ah, the vision of dawn is leisure. But the truth or day is toil. And we pass from the dreams or pleasure To the world's unstayed turmoil. Pe rebanee, beyond the river Which guards the realm or Fate Our spirits may dwell forever 'Moog dreams of the ivory Gate. SETTLING TBE STATE. A Circular from the South Carolina Real Estate, Planting and Mininer Company. 2b the People of the State of South Carolina: Tit the last session ot the Legislature of this J State a charter was obtained by the South Carolina Beal Estate. Planting and Mining Company, "for the purpose ol securing for? eign and domestic capital in the purchase and improvement of lands and other property, and for the working of the same, and for selling and settling the same," or, as lt is more fully expressed in the fourth section ot the charter, "The said corporation shall have power to j purchase, acquire, hold, use, work und dispose of real estate in any of the counties ot this State, to work and operate mines, to work and operate farms and plantations within the I State, and to dispose, generally, of the pro- j ducts of the same." This company has been duly organized un? der the .charter, and fifteen responsible citi? zens selected by the stockholders as a board j of directors, by whom one of th >lr number, the Hon. William Aiken, a gentleman of the highest repute, both at home and abroad, has been chosen president. At a recent meeting of the board ot directors, lt was resolved that the undersigned be appointed a committee to lay before the people of the Slate a prospectus of the company, and to solicit donations of land, or subscriptions to the capital stock of the company, in cash or in lands, in shares of one hundred dollars each. in presenting this enterprise to your favor? able consideration, we are not unmindful of the prejudices against untried experiments, and if your experience in the past, or your condition In the present pointed ua hopefully to a prosperous future, we might Bhrlnk from the task ot attempting to introduce a popula- J tlon to build up our waste places and restore j us to our wonted material vigor and vitality. But what are the facts of the case ? Seven years of continued exetions have well nigh exhausted our energies, and failed to revive ?B as a State or resuscitate us as a people. The presentjeo edition of tho civil affairs of ?hla Commonwealth is lamentable in the ex? treme, and lt allowed to continue forbodes naught but Irretrievable ruin to our people and the State. To avert such a destiny is one o? the prime motives of the organization of the South Carolina Beal Estate, Planting and [ Mining Company. Our efficiency to Improve tile condition of ourselves and our people will depend upon the means placed at our dis? posal. Combined effort is the popular idea of the times. Stupendous projects are undertaken and successfully accomplished thereby; co? operation surmounts obstacles with apparent ease, that Individual enterprise would not dara encounter. Throughout the South com? bination ls daily effecting mighty results lor tne public weal Shall we not make an effort to accomplish as much for our down-trodden State ? Do not our depleted treasury, our abused credit, our debased officials and the general depression of our people convince us that a change is Imperative ? - There ls a vast amount of unoccupied land la South Carolina. The proprietors would enrich themselves by deeding a moiety of such lands to any company that would-settle upon them a thrifty, honest, industrious popu? lation; for, be they i arm ern, mechanics, trades? men or miners, they would enhance the value ot tne adjacent lands by every Improvement made upon their own. In addition to this, they would also share In the profits derived from sales to Immigrants, the working of lands that may be placed under cultivation, or such other operations, as mining, spinning yarns, ?c., that may be determined on by the company as being to the most advantage. Any parties disposed to aid this laudable I enterprise, by donations or subscriptions of land to the capital stock, will please address [ either of the undersigned. D. WYATT AIKEN, Cokesbury.

The Columbia Union, sayer "On Wednesday last a colored woman living on a plantation near Hopklu'-Turnout was sel upon by five or six colored womett-and one or two men,.who beat iwr-anuwrclfnlly. What her offence WBB, or what they pretended lt to be, we did not learn." A Bold Robbery. On Sunday 'aat some bold person effected an entnnce through the window of the office room of the depot it Darlington and took therefrom several valuable articles belonging to the agent? Mr. E. W. Charles, Jr., amount? ing to seventy-five dollars or upwards, be-1 sides breaking into one or two express pack-1 ages. The Moble y Marder. The Chester Reporter says : "Mr. Amzl Triplett, 9 well-known citizen of this county, was arrested on. Saturday last ou a warrant I issued by Trial Justice McDonald, charging him with murder committed on the person of j a negro man, Aaron Mobley, in the spring of ? 1665. Mr. Triplett was carried belora Judge ] Thomas, at chambers, on Saturday afternoon, and ' admitted tb ball In the sum of two thous? and dollars." A Mysterton* Suicide. The'Chester Beporter says: "On Friday morning last, John Benson, a colored boy twelve years of age, son of Moses Benson, i wak found hanging dead on a tree, on toe side,j ot the road to Yorkvllle, about a mlle and three-quarters from this town. The finding of the Jury was that the boy came to his death by his own hands.!' "Popular indignation on Friday, particular-1 ly among the colored people, was roused to a very high pitch against Moses Benson, the lather of the boy, under tho impression that lt was his crnel treatment of the boy that caused him to seek relief in death from the punish? ment threatened' 'him. The story was that | Moses Benson' had sent the boy out to look for a cow, that be returned without finding it, that his lather, punished him severelr and Eent him out again, with the threat that if he returned without the cow he would punish him much more severely. Moses' Benson de? nies all this; says that he did not send the boy for a cow, .did not punish him, and did not make any threat-abo ut punishing him. It ls a verv mysterious case. Nothing but a very strong motive .would drive a boy of twelve years of age to commit suicide. Some Rad l cal scoundrel or other tried to create the im? pression among the negroes that it was a case o? Ku-Kluxlng; but the testimony before the in ry was too olear to leave any doubt that the toy deliberately took his own life." TUE GROWING CROPS. The Abbeville Banner says: "On Monday we bad very general rains throughout the j district'' ? : The Winnsboro' News says: "The com-| munity was visited by an all-day rain on Mon >day, and got it again a good portion of Tues? day." v. The Chester Reporter says: "Since our last issue we have bad abundant rains in every portion of our county. This insures a good cora crop, and makes the prospect tor cotton most encouraging. Give us a good crop and Greeley and there will be life in the old laud yet." The Darlington Southerner says: "The rains for some days past have been ample, and it ls very probable that too much has fallen on low lands, (where the prospect for the heaviest yield was best,) but all accounts concur in saying that the present promise ls on unusually fine one lor a general crop." The Marlboro' Times says: "As a matter of course, the rains have had a beneficial in? fluence upon the crops. They have put a stop to the drying up process. But before the rains came crops were so seriously Injured that many farmers do not expect more than half a crop. The injury ls undoubtedly serious, though we hope not so much so UB was at ii ret supposed." The Camden Journal says: "We regret to learn that the much-dreaded boll worm has made its appearance, though only in a few places as yoi. We have been shown by Mr. T. Pegues several bolls which had been com? pletely destroyed. Mr. Pegues says they have done very little damage at present, but, from the known increase ot these marauders, lt is hard to tell what destruction might be accom? plished before the season has expired." Tbe Greenville Enterprise says: "The weather has not been so hot during the past week, and, saving Thursday last, the days have been comparatively cool; on that day, tue thermometer reached 94 deg. Bain has (allen in plenty. John A. Goodwin, Esq., and Dr. W. A. Mooney, from the upper part of the county, say tbey do not remember in their whole farm? ing experience, of a more promising crop; and Rev. A. C. Stepp and Dr. J. M. Sullivan give the same glowing account of the corn and cotton in the lower end of Greenville. A big crop, counled with the election ot Greeley and Brown tn the fall, will give us an Elysium." THE COTTON SUPPLY. [From the N. Y. Bulletin, August 7.] j At present, there are too many elements of | uncertainty surrounding tho question, lo ad? mit of anything like a definite estimate ol the out-turn of the new cotton crop. Some ma? terial lacts affecting the problem are, how? ever, ascertained beyond reasonable question, upon which we may base certain suppositions at least. It is conceded, on all sides, that the area planted ls equal to that ot 1870, when we had a crop of 4,350,000 bales. It ls also allowed tnat the crop was planted under generally favorable conditions, and that fertilizers were freely used in preparing the ground. Although, in April and Hay, the growth of the plant was delayed by drought, yet subsequent rains and a genial temperature Invigorated the crop, and at the middle of June its condition, tak? ing the whole area, stood at a fair aver-j aire. At the middle ot July, notwithstand? ing variable weather, the condition of the crop showed an improvement. According to the reporls of the department ot agriculture which, under the new management, are much more deserving of confidence than formerly the averages ot condition in the several StaieB (100 Oeing adopted as the standard of good,) was as follows: Virginia, 96; North Carolina, 94; South Carolina, 97; Georgia, 101; Florida, 102; Alabama, 106; Mississippi, 109; Louisiana, 103; Texas, 105; Arkansas. 95; Tennessee, 104; which, taking into consideration the relative standing of the states as to production, gives a general average ol 103-a very gratllylng showing. The commissioner of agriculture in his last report says: "As a whole, the July re? turns of the present year present a higher average of condition than those of any pre? vious reports except those of 1868." Since the 15th ot July, there have been com? plaints from some sections of too much wet; and In some localities tho worm has made its appearance. But there appears to be no rea? son for concluding that either of these acci? dents has reduced the condition of the crop, as a whole, below the high average at which lt stood three weeks ago; and this conclusion agree? with the last report of the commis? sioner on statistics and Information of the New Orleans Colton Exchange, dated August 1st. That report also bears satisfactory testi? mony as to the condition of labor In every State excepting, perhaps, Arkansas-a matter very essentially affecting the prospects of the crop. In comparing the present crop with that of 1870-71, we have this certain element In the comparison, that the area planted was j in both i ears about the same; but the con? dition ot the crop, at this date In the two years, must be regarded as somewhat a maller of opinion. The abundant crop of j two years ago was the result not only ot a large acreage, but also of conditions affect? ing the yield exceptionally favorable; whether those conditions are this year equally favorable is a matter we do not undertake to decide for our readers, although lt may be said that the tenor of reports la suob that a sanguine estimator might be easily ex? cused for taking the affirmative aide of that question. The New Orleana Exchange report, above alluded to, estimates that picking will this year be begun a few days earlier than last; and, this being thc case, we are now but two or three weeks from the commence? ment of the gathering ol the crop, and the risks of injury are narrowed down lo that limit. These are the main laois affecting the pros? pect of the yield. What conclusion do they lead to ? Do they warrant, on the assumption that the weather continu?e favorable and there ie no further Injury from worms, the ex? pectation ot a crop equal to that of 1870-71 4.350,000 bales ? Or, if both these conditions should prove unfavorable, what ls tbe lowest yield that may be expected ? As our readers would perhaps prefer their own answers to these questions to any that we might give, we leave them to make their own estimates In the premises, and direct their attention to another fact of great Importance in connec? tion with the prospects of the supply of Ameri? can cotton. The supply of cotton "in sight," on August 2, 1872 and 1870, is thus stated by the Chronicle, whose high authority on cotton information we have much pleasure in ac? knowledging: 1872. 1870.

S_ 8,297 22,170 Total.2,109.107 1.636,468 I It thus appears that there are now 663,654 bales more afloat than there were at this- date of 1870. Two years ago, from the cotton In sight and the new American crop, the world had a supply, from August I to Septeuber I, 1871, ot 5,885,000 bales. This year, should the crop prove equal to that ol 1870-71, there will be a supply, for the next thirteen months, from these combined sources of 6,550,000 bales. If lt be said that we cannot count upon a crop equal to that of two years ago, the answer is thar, having 603,000 bales more lo sight 'than at this period of 1870, we should be in a posi? tion equal lo that of two years ago, even If we count upon a yield 01 only 3,687,000 bales. Taking all the facts ot the situation into ac? count, there Is strong probability to sustain the supposition that the supply ot cotton, dur lng the coming crop year, may exceed that of j all former years. .
