In Winns boro a more quiet election wats never witnessed than thIe one held on Tuesday, which is cred itable aliikIe to both po0litier.l1)partice. Long he fore the hour had arrived for open ing the polls, a large nlumer of white voters wuere present at the polling- place, but the colored voters were soon1 on1 hand1, and tile voting proceeded briskly until after mlid day. Both p~arties haid full workinlg and rallying committees on the ground, and voters encountered no dlifliculty in obtaining ballots. Very few voteis were cast after three o'clock in the afternoan. As soon as the town clock struck six: the p~olls were: closed, and time maunagers pr1oceedO(d to the count, amnd were engaged thereat about (eight hours.

Tao Conaition of tho Crops. The digest of the crop retmins for October, prepared by the agri cultural department, indica'es a redcItioni iii the wheat crop of near ly ol( sixth, while the quantity is somiewlJhat supliior. In everj sc-. tiol of the Union there is a redue d crop, oxcept in the Middle States, in which there ii an increase of about 2 per cent. The South Atlantic States fell off 2 per cent., the Gulf States 27 par cent., and tile South ern inland States 8 per (it. The figures point to a total yield of 245,000,000 bushels. The rye crop is 4 por cont. below last year, with somewhat better .u1ality. The barley crop is 6 per cent. holow last year. The crop of Georgia equals last year's. Buckwheat is a full average, and rather above it. The oats crop shows a falling off of 23 per cent. : In the South Atlan tic States, 1 per cent.; in the G'ulf St:ites, 5 por cont., and in tile Southern inland States, 2 por cent. Georgia, Floridi, Alabama, Louisi ana and West Virginia yield a full Crop. The corni crop in the South Atlantic States, especially near the coast, suffered from the September storms. Maryland and South Caro lina have a full average, and Georgia is largely above, bunt the delieloney in Virginia and liorthi Carolina has cut down tile general condition of this section to 2 por cent below the avernlge. The crop of the Gulf States is about the average, -Texais reparting an espoeially fine condi tion1. - The following is the full article on) cotton: The October reports indiente a redluctioni of the couidi. tion of cotton dluring thle p~ast m11:nth in) tihe ten priniplal cotton. States from an avraige of 905 to~ 817. The October average for these States was 888 in 1875 andl 717 in 1874. The delinie froni Sep)tembier~ is slight in Georgia, FVloridla and Mississippi, greater i L-misiana and Arkansas, and great (lst in Alabama and Tennessee. Thlere is a small11 advance in Texas. Tile figures for the condition of the States are as follows: North Caro. lina 84, Soulth Carolina 80, Georgia 87, Florida 80, Alabama 70, Missis sippi 83, Louisiana 82, Texas 91, Arkansas 86, Teonnessee 91. The impilairmoneft of tile ci'op prios p)ects has been caused by th(e equiinoctial storm in North Carolina, drougvht and rust in Georgia, the caterpillar in Florid i and Alabama, and~ 1he h)011 worm~ in) Arkansas li' frost in Tennessee. Tile caterpillar is conifinedc to the southerly p)ortionl of tile Gulf States ; its depred. tionis are most sceoro in Alabamna. Inl mlost of tile infected districts the repiroducetioni was too late to. (10 stroy moro1 thadn tihe top) crops. Tile Septemuber gale prostrated mnuchi of the crop of Dinwiddie C (oun ty, Vui., and thme injury from thle storm of Septemnber 17 was conisidlerable throughout the tide water regioi*)f tihe Carolinas. For wowksfollowing there was anl excess of rain in thlis region. It is stated that the ground io Bertie, N. (., was whlitonecd with tile staple dotached by the violence of the storm. In Warner and Duplin the damage from the equnoctial storm from thle 15th to tihe 17th September is estimated at 20 per cent., Qnmd the Ioss is larger in Lenoir, Pitt, Wayne, Bladen, Beaufort, Edgecombe, Grdene, Chowan and Camden. The rust is prevalent in WVeison and Greene. Picking progressed slowvly in North Carolina in consequence of the con tinuiane of bad weather. The pickers in Pitt -exhibit positivo 1disinclination to work na therql price, 50 bents per 100 pounds. The bolls are opening rapidly in South Carolina, and the top crop will be light. There is some com plaint of rust, and there has been an injurious drought on the. uplands and loss from floods in the bottoms. The caterpillar is reported in Rich land. The sea island cotton in Beaufort is yielding better thai last year. Caterpillars appeared about the middle of July in Liberty county, Ga., and stripped the plants of leaves, but not so early as to materi a'ly injure tle yield. Som (ain a.;e by the caterpillar is reporte.d in Etrly county and Muscogeo. The principal causes of deterioration were droulght, rust, imid and rain. There is mucli comnplaint of deficion ey of t o top crop. In Carroll it is stated that the loss by shedding boll will be fifty per cent. In some counties favorable weather for open ing and gathering is reported, as well as a superiority in the quality of the fibre. It was thought in Oglethorpe that the crop would all be o)en by the 15th of October Rind in Columbia by 1he0 1st of No vember. In other counties there was little to open it the dato of the return. Caterpillars have reduced thei yield in Florida, notably in Colu1 bia. The lipcning has been early. The Gadsden ro)orter represents the harvest as nearly over, with a product of 30 per cent. less than a full viohl, and says he han neyor kiownl, in an experience of fifty years, a crop to be housed so early by a month. The caterp'llar has be )n somewhat destructive of the top crop in por tions of Alabama. The less in esti im-Atod at 50 per cent. in Caneeuii, at 40 per cent. in Hale, 50 per cent in the southern portions, whore .the fields were sWe)t by the invasion as early an the 1st of September. The causes of iij ury in Mississippi are worm9, drought, wet weather and frosIs. Date cc.t n Will be se riously injure] by wormiis in Gronoi dar and Choctaw. In Hancock paris green was used Suc110.eSsfully against the caterpillar. A frost sufliliently severo to do some injury is reported in Hines, Choctaw and in other colunties.. he op is injured in Louisiana very generally by drought, con tinua ing in Jackson for ten weeks, caus ing rust, shedding and prelmture openling. Seventy-live per cent. of the product was in readiness for harvest at the first picking. The enterpillar is doing som11( damage to the to1) crop. In T'exais pi(cking isprgsin very rapidly, and in some counties tihe drought will rednce. the length of the harvest period. The loss from drought is plaiced .at 50 per cent. in Boexar ;the top) cr02 in B3ell is neatrly dostroyved by grasshoppo-s, and in D)allas the injuries'are serious. The boll worm is-rep~orted in the Red River section. and fine weather for picking. A heavy growth and tenl donley to run to weed in tho rich hands, 'and mlore or or less injury from (drought in light soils, and ear ly ripening, are the indices of the state of the crop. In Arkanusas the b)ol1 worm has been destructive in several counties, mlor~e So) than ever before. In Franklin county a frost occurred on the 1st of October. Late cotton has becen injured by frost in Tennessee. The season has been fine for riperaing and gathering: picking from one to two weeks early, and the harvest will be0 comp~leted at an early (late. Finally, the general harves~t isl mnore adlvanced than usual. The seasonx is generally favorable for picking ; the later pickings will hue comparatively light. The caiusc s of injury are no~t excessivo, dlronghlt beinig somfowhaft. pr1omlinenlt in the Gulf States, the September storms on thle Atlantic coast, tile caterpillar in Alabama especially, and tile bol1l worm in Arkansas. Tile seasfonl promises to hoe much shorter thlan last year, and there is less vigor and thrift for future de veopment of fruitage in ease of a pro longed senson like tile extraordinary one of 1875. Thongh tihe rep~orts of the departmlent up to October ro. ported four and twvo-third millions of bales last season, there was proved1 a deficiency of lint to seed in the ginning, and othler unfavora. ble indications, wvhich would .have limited the crop to four anid one third millions, but for a full month's delay of killing frontin the G4ulf States, the fields being greeni In'a huige belt1 up to December 8th. The future of the present season cannot make the crop a defieient one, but will determine howv neat* tg the large cron of 1875 the resnlt all1 cam Jind Boeoptioti. N OTICE in heib1y given to It.
