Fo far as we have been able to learn by m . emiuiiry, the cotton crop of ottr district, ex- , jr eept in a few favored localities, is not as ! promising as it shouliPbc. In sutnc places the < plant continues to die, and one planter informs that rust has attacked his crop. The wheat and oat crops have been badly injured , both iu quantity and quality by rust.

Mor^Popula tion for the South. 1 In our advertising colninns will he found s ^ the annouircefndnt of a grand. Gi/t enter- S prise, in which .the amoimt of half a million t t of dollars will be distributed by (he South Car- \ ^ olina Land and Immigration Association. L The importance of the object of the Asso- ] g ciation -should recommend the enterprise to t B every citizen of the State, and the induce- 1 p ments which arc,offcrcd arc such ;is to tempt . every ond. .it l\u price of tickets is only five { dollars, "the noldcr of one-of them will j receive the Academy of Music, one of the , most valuable pieces of property in the whole Southern country. Tho stores in the building command high rents; the saloon and ] store has now and can always have a tenant. } The Ilalls. above arc in constant demand. , and tbe theatre is by fur the handsomest in , the South. .The lucky holder of the ticket which draws that prize will secure a fortune. J The second prize, though less valuable, will be enough to satisfy the most grasping. One hundred thousand dollars is at no time to be despised. A large number of other prizes are to bo given, varying from $25,00.0, $10,000, $5,000, $1,900, &c., amounting to over 2,400 gifts. The character of the gentlemen who are at the head of the enterprise is such as to satisfy ?very one that there can be nothing unfair "in the transaction. Most gift schemes arc started by irresponsible parties. This one is, on the contrary, conducted under the . auspices or General M. C. Butler, a former Major-General of the Confederate Army, agd the candidate fur Lieutenant-Governor at the last election; a man- whose namo in j South Carolina, has always been synonymous tjrith high toned honesty and integrity; Mr. ^Johu Chadwick, a gentleman who has invested hundreds of thousands in the State, .-and who is honored and respected^ by the 1 ..entire community, and General Gary, the '.honest, .b^ave, manly and popular gcntlc-. jouwi, -iiOver knew fear, and whose character stands without reproach. In addition to the high tone, character and responsibility of the Managers, other safeguards are thrown around the scheme which would recommend it to themost skeptical, as will appear by the advertisements. We feel sure that the only difficulty, which will be had in a few days, will bethe obtaining of tikets, as tbeo will be eagerly sought after in every section or the country. The Atlanta Constitution, of the lGth, says: We have been informed bv a bank official that a good many . counterfeit notes are being circulated la the City this week. They arc mostly tens and twenties, of National Bank, Poughkeepsie, New York, and Legal Tender twenties, * * ' ' , Propagation of Fiah?Is Shad Culture Profitable? From the Rochester (N. Y.) Daily Union. About four years ago the fifcst movement was made to demonstrate in a public way that, the fishes in the great" rivers could be assisted.iu propagation and their numbers be immensely multiplied by the artificial process. Fcth Green had previously been engaged in the cultivation- of brook trout with more or less successful results. lie had turned his attention to shad ' and insisted that with a small outlay of time and money these excellent fishes could be produced in such quantities as to glut the market aud make shad the cheap food for -the poor. To* demonstrate this it became necessary to find a suit able place where work could be done under tho protection of the law, and some pecuniary aid from the public could be obtained.? Massachusetts and Connecticut were induced to lend their aid in a joint effort to stock the Connecticut. Mr. Green made liberal proposals to the Commissioners of these States and went to the dam at Ilolyokc, the head waters of the Connecticut, fur shad and thcro went to work under great disadvantages, including the opposition of the ignorant fish- ' ermcn, and receiving but little encouragement from the public of the locality general ly. lie sought tu demonstrate the truth of his theories and was willing to make almost ] any sacrifice to do this. He had declared _ his firm belief that shad hatched in a partic- ( ular river would annually return to that river and would resort to no other, and that by artificial propagation ninety per cent, of the spawn would be productive, while by the ! natural method not five per cent, were hatch- j ncl Tlin /iavmIftbtnoo r\4-' lnc lAACitmne hOO UUt JL Ut VI Alio ^VOIHUUJ mw | been demonstrated .beyond all doubt. IIow ( (his has been done, let the Commissioners of , the State of Connecticut tell. In their re- , port to the Legislature just received are the following: In the mouth of July, 1867, Mr. S. Green J of Mumford.N. Y., under the joint patronage of the Massachusetts and Connecticut Com- ! missioners, made the first experiment in the ! artificial propagation of shad in the Conucc- 1 cut ltivcr, a snort distance below Ilolyokc { Dam. Mr. Green's skill and large experi- , cncc in the culture of fish specially fitted him for the work. Ilis first attempt resulted i in hatching about two per cent, of the ova. J His second attempt with improved arrange- \ ments, brought out seventy per cent. His ' third effort secured ninety nine per cent.; and in three weeks he put into the Connccticut river about forty millions of young shad. At this time nothing was known about the growth of the shad; there was a great dif- * lerencc of opinion among fishermen and naturalists; some asserted that it reached ma- 1 Lurity, or marketable size, in one year; othjrs, that it took from two to five years. The ^ better opinion seemed to be not less than 4 ;hree nor more than five years; and this was partially corroborated by the investigations of Mr. 31. S. Treat, of hlastfurd, which showed v hat alcwives, which arc closely allied to ? shad, take four years to maturq. It was * ilso corroborated by the time of the disap- J jcarancc of shad after the building of dams. n flii? l^nlt lit' 1 fil!7 mnro vnnnir tli-ul xpavo ^ ... ? ? -? i ; ? v bserved at various places along flic river rom Clastonbury to its month, on.

Th6~ ierry-boats on the river re- 1 icatedly scooped them up on their aprons, * vhile many were caught by tho fishermen in heir fiue-ineslicd nets. 1 c In the following snnnncr, June 20, 1S68, , VIr. Green repeated his experiments in tlie j latching of shad at llolyoke, under the di- j ection of the Massachusetts Commissioners, , uid for about twenty days had complete suc ess. lie turned out '-several millions" of 1 ,-outig fry daily. On the 12th of July, the ] vcathes became so extremely hot that the i cuipcratuic of the water ranged from 84 to ! >8 (fcgrecs, aud the spawn was spoiled in he hatching boxoe. It is estimated that f iixty millions of young shad were put into } he Connecticut that year. During the same year attempts were made )y the Connecticut Commissioners to hatch i had at Broekway's Poiut, but it was on the \ $th of J uly before the ova were placed in c .he boxes, and . the extreme -heat of the veather destroyed them. No attempts were made to hatch shad in L870. the Commissioners deeming it prudent o await the results of the experiments of I8G7 and 18G8, before incurring further expense. The great increase 4' young shad since I860. as inlhGS, confirmed the bcliui' ;liat they would mature in due time and an ibuudtiueo of merchantable shad would appear by the year 1871 at the farthest. To the surprise and delight of our people, however, they appeared iu unusually great numbers in 1870. Such a run of shad had not been seen in twenty years. On Sunday, the 22d of May, they appeared in the Sound in vast numbers; captains of vessels sailing through the Sound, reported immense shoals of them near the surface of the water, all making for the mouth of the Connecticut River. On 31onday morning the 22d, over 2S,000 "had of good size were taken from the ponds at and near Say brook. The same day, at Lewis's l'ond, beyond Nuncatcsick Point, 3,5G0 were taken at one time, being seven times the usual catch. At Haddani Island 700 were taken at one haul during 11 ? . IT 1 1 IT 4 ~ A ..... tnl-An mc uay, nuiyui^c jsuui, tuu mhvu betwecu four and five o'clock in the afternoon. At all the other fishing places on the river, so far as heard from, the catches were unusually large, and the fishing continued unusually good throughout the season. The average quality and size of the fish were also good.* Now the largest hauls of shad in or near the Connecticut "River of which we have any authentic record was in 1811, when 2.280 , shad were caught at a single draft at Rutty's j Fish Place. Prior to that time, the largest I single draft had been made in 1802, atllad dam Pier, and it numbered about Z,3Uu. Comparing these figures with those given above, from Nuneatesick Point; it will be seen that the single catch last year at that place was larger by nearly CO per cent, than the largest single draft ever before recorded. It cannot be positively asserted that this great run of shad was the result of the hatching of 186.7. Your Comrnissioners entertain the belief hat it was; and there arc certainly plausible reasons for such belief. ' It is a remarkable coincidence that such a sudden increase should appoar just at the time many #May 18, 1871.?Since the above was in lypo' reports have reached us that the helling in the river is better than it was last year. Last week 3,000 shad have boon caught at a single draft of the eeinat Essexfand this week 900 were eaught at one draft above Middletowi^ S5 X JO rf! ' m K? . I I I' _ had predicted it and look fat 'it. It is a pertinent fact, too, that no other river shared in this abundance; the' supply elsowhere was as in former years. * ' This alone is evidenco conclusive to ah unbiased mind that ebnd can be cultivated at a small cost in the rivers they frequent, that they will return to the places where , they are hatched, and that these who sow may reap. But it is not the people on the banks of the Connection alone who are reaping a harvest of soad. Those on the banks of the Hudson arc beginning to see the result of ] culture in this State. Throe years ago Mr. Green began to propogate on tne nuuson. Tlie fish then deposited are now coming in. There has been no such abundance of shad in that river for years. The catch has been large already and the market is glutted. Shad arc sold in New York for a quarter of a doller apiece, and in river towns for a shilling. The wholesale price has been as low as three cents per pound within a week.- ; This.is only a beginning. ' Tho quantities of spawn now bcinghatchcd nightly far exceeded what has been done in any season before, About three hundred thousand young shad are turned into the river every day. This work is being done by order of the Commissioners of the State 1 under the management of Mr. Groen. PHc operations are chielly performed on tho west bank of the rivor, a mile or two below t Castleton. i Presidential Movements.?After an t' absence erf several weeks, (says the "Wash- ( ington Patriot,) the President, accompanied l by a part of his "military staff," honored the 1 Capitol with a flying visit durihg the last two days. His first attentions were humane ly rendered to a sick colt, which the last bul- E letinsofthe court journals announce to be t convalescent, thus happily relieving the Executive mind from a serious cause of anxiety. In tearing himself away froia the bra- 0 ling breezes of Long Branch, and renouncing for forty-eight hours the charms of official ti intercourse and personal relaxation, with that >' eminent statesman, Mr. Thomas Murphy, | svho now directs the destiny of the New ^ Fork customs, and equitably distributes the c lividcuds of the "General Order Ring," the o President has exhibited a degree of self- * denial, which extorts praise from all sides.? Fliis and other sacrifices are"not compensa;cd by the fact, that his salary is drawn with p scrupulous regularity while.at the Branch, a since his calm meditations at the sea-side " lave undoubtedly as much value for the ? . ountry as his disturbed thoughts here in iVashington, amidst angry factions and tj patriotic place-hunters., fi '1 , & A "Woman 'Killed by a Snake.?The 8< iVilmington Star prints tho following: 'In Brunswick County, about six miles tl rom this city, a short time since, two colored u vomen, we learn, were out'in the woods h gathering huckleberries, when as ono of hem attempted to step on an old partially lecayed log, a monstrous rattlesnake sudden- e y sprang from his covert and seized the I1 voman by the throat.
