We have first a follow, from which,
daring the previous year, a wheat crop
had been removed. On this land there
was a considerable amount of nitrogen
as nitric add, near the surface—evi
dently due to stirring of the soil—and
but little below. The previous wheat
crop might have removed about 20
pounds of nitrogen per acre. The
white clover grown the same year as
the wheat, must have removed consid
erably more than this amount of nitro
gen, and yet we find that at every
depth, there is much more nitrogen as
nitric add in the clover soil than there
is where the wheat was grown. The
vetch crop just before the soil was
sampled, had carried oflT considerably
more than 100 pounds of nitrogen, and
yet we find in this soil as much uitro-
n as nitric acid, as in the lailow soil.

A gentleman who returned here on
Monday night from a ride into Lau
rens in pursuit of Bob Griffin, a white
man accused of stealing a watch,
brought a strange and horrifying story,
lie slated that while riding in the road
in Laurens county on Monday morn
ing ho camo suddenly on the dead
body of a negro man, which on exami
nation he found to be perforated with
bullet holes. A representative of the
Newt investigated the matter yestor
day afternoon and learned the follow
ing:
“The negro’s name was Charles
Williams. He appeared in the High
land Home section of Laurens two or
three weeks ago, and has been work
ing about there ever since. He has
caused some anxietv among Die people,
especially the Indies, bv frequently
parading the public roads with a pistol
in his hand. Ho was a large, hurley
man, of unprepossessing appearance.

shallow-rooted plant, if only it can
avail itself of the material at its dis
posal. Whether leguminous plants
take up organic nitrogen, or whether
they induce nitrification iu the soil, are
questions which at present form part
ot our invesligatious, hut so long as
there is still about 20,(XX) pounds of
nitrogen per aero within the reach of
some of these deep-rooted plants, wo
somehow feel that more interest is
attached to researches under ground
than those connected with the atmos

a young lady who lives near Highland
Home was awakened by some one
standing by her bed with a hand on
her. She inquired who it was and
then screamed, whereupon the intru
der lay flat on the floor ns if to hide,
but finding that the lady continued to
call for help fled, leaving the house by
a door he had broken open to enter.
The lady’s brother, who was away
from home with a threshing machine,
was sent for early next morning, and
hastened home. He and others ex
amined the trseks of the invader and
found them to fit shoes worn by Wil
liams, (who was arrested in the neigh
borhood,) in size, shape and other
respects. Williams was much confused
when arrested, and told two stories of
where he had spent the previous night,
both of which were found to be false.
When taken before the young lady
whose room had been entered, Wil
liams was positively identified by her
aa her assailant.
A magistrate was aent for and the
evidence was heard. It was decided
to commit the prisoner to jail to await
trial, and he was put in charge of two
deputies to be taken to Laurens. As
they were on their way they were sud
dcnly halted at a brunch between Yer
gin’s and LYiap’s by fifteen or twenty
unmasked men, who opened fire on
Williams with various firearms, rid
dling his body and head and killing
him almost inatantly. His body was
left in the road to await I he arrival of
the coroner.
When Williams’s valise was exam
ined four locks of hair from the heads
of white women were found in it.
THN CHOPS OV THK HTATK
Kvpurt ml tha Agricultural Department for
tha 1st of July.
The State Department of Agricul
ture furnishes the following Informa
tion regarding the condition of the
growing crop July 1, derived from the
reports of it*; township correspon
dents:
COTTON.
The returns on the 1st of May indi
cated a decrease of one per cent. In the
cotton area of the State below that of
1884. The reports July 1, giving
actual estimated acreage, increased the
area one per cent, over the May re-
tarns, making it the same as lost pear.
This estimate, however, is baeed upon
ths comparative statements by per
centages and not upon a calculation of
actual acreage by counties, and as a
majority of the counties report an
increase it is very probable that when
ths area has been ascertained by the
latter method that the resnlts will show
a larger area than in 1884.
Tbs weather during the mouth lias
been generally favorable for the growth
and development of the plant, although
complaints are made both of too much
rein and a lack of rain in localities.
The grass grew so rapidly after the
rains in May and Juno that the “stands”
of cotton were injured in removing it.
It is generally stated by the correspon-
laiei
dents that the crop is two weeks later
and usual, and the plant is consequent
ly smaller then in average seasons, but
is growing well, and developing finely;
is vigorous and has a good color.
There are exceptions to these reports
however, as in Aiken county, where a
correspondent states that the plant is
small and has an unhealthy appear
ance; and in other localities where the
correspondents say that it is turning
yellow from the effects of excessive
rains and supposed exhaustion of fer
tilizers. The great majority of the
reports were very favorable notwith
standing the injuries mentioned, and
the condition of the crop is better than
at any time for several year at the
•ame period. The condition is re|K>rt-
ed at 96 in npper and lower Carolina,
and 95 in middle Carolina, an average
for the State of 96against 95 July first,
1884, and 94on the first of Jure, 1885.

The corn crop is generally reported
in very fine condition. Some bottom

I am sixty-seven years old, and have
lived in this (Hall) county all my life
Up to twenty-eight years ago t was
regarded as the strongest man iu the
neighborhood—the most robust
in
health. In November, 1856, I had
long and serious spoil of typhoid fever
It left me emaciated and a cripple in
my right leg. At times that limb was
swollen an enormous size, being twice
as large as its natural condition, am
inflamed and angry in appearance
From my knee down small sores came
and at the ankle a large ^ilcer came
which discharged poisonous matter
My whole system became infected
The doctors would patch me up for
awhile, but the ulcer would never
heal. The merenrv and potash with
which they dosed me brought on
rheumatism and dyspepsia. I was an
object of pity to all mv friends. 8ome
thought that the only hope to save
life was amputation. I continued
grow worse, and for throe years I have
not worn a shoe. Hope had almost
left for me. Swift’s Specific was sug
gested, and I commenced its use at
once. From the very first I began
feel better. I have taken thirty-six
bottles, and the shadows which had
darkened my life for twgnty-eigl
years have all been dissipated. Tl
effect of the medicine is wonderfu
ndeed. To-day I am able to attem
to all my farming interests, and wal
from one to five miles per day. I am
satisfied that the disease is entirely
broken np, and henceforth I am to be
free from those terrible apprehensions
and suffering which formerly made
my life miserable. Swift’s Specific has
done more good for me iu one year
than all the drug store medicine pre
scribed by physicians in twenty-eight
years, and I most cherfully bear this
testimony of its merits.

A Freak of Lightning.
A singular freak of lightning oc
curred nexr Stockholm, Sussex county,
N. J., on Monday afternoon. During
the thunderstorm a ball of fire passing
between tbe chimney and a tall tree,
only a foot or two distant, withont
touching either, entered the window
of the honse of a man named Shoon-
maker and bounded across the room,
burning a track iu the carpet wherever
it touched. Then it divided into two
forks, one striking a clock on the wall,
shivering 'it to atoms, and glancing
aside it passed out of another window,
breaking three pones of glass. It
ploughed along the ground for obont
150 feet, leaving an irregular furronyh,
end then entered tbe ground and dis
appeared. The second fork tore its
way oot through tbe wall and vanished

into the gronnd. Several persons were
in the room at the time. Mrs. Shoon-
maker, who was bolding her baby in
her arms, was the only person injured.
She was stunned and remained insen
