Tlie Prodifeltbe Journal, comment* ing upon the last report -Lstied by the Commissioner of Agriculture at Wash ington, says: :, ? ,• - - “The cotton crop may bo affected by. causes not yet at work, but there is every reason to expect the harvest to be full, and the quality of lift product excellent. Grass is above an average crop jn every State in the Union save Smith Caro lina. This is a guarantee of added wealth to the country to an almost in calculable degree: • v. Blcnty hay. Cheap hay niMps prosperity for the farm* cr, aud milk and hutter and beef at mod erate prices for the consumerT The hay crop is the most important crop of the country. It being good, the founda tion stone of agriculture is laid.” -« -J * — 7 — ’ These few lines arc' suggestive of many thoughts. The “camea” that may affect the cotton crops, the “reason’’ for anticipatiflg a fall 1 crop, and the “quality” of the article, ore nil poten* factors in the result which will be cx* perteneed nrxt November, and at this season of the crop arc,like so many “ifs’ in the poor man’s way to wealth. But tho fact that croj>” of 8nufh Carolina is below the “average'’ is almost too good to be funny- If the Commissioner has so reported, he and the Providence Journal nnpi ought' to visit this State to learn what the grass crop is. We harvest no hay of any con sequence, but chop away ah the spring and summer trying to kill' grass as a nuisance, whereas if wc gavuit half the attcntioD wc do the eottou crop, it would produce net money enough to buy the best cofton crop wc ever made.

It seems that several yc-irs ago, i bout ur 1379, seveed • moa named B-ioth went to the house if Mr.' Abrain Jones for the purpose of attacking Jones ou account of of some causciof complaint existing between tbe parties. The Booths were Bccompsnkd by a yo«ng t man nemed Lutber Toney. Jones was^ prepared lor the intended assault, which was abandoned; bat the young man To ny was shut, and, a? was claimed, acci dentally killed by one of the party ol Booihs, in whose company ho was at the time. The relatives of Toney regarded the killing ns intentional, and the affair became tlia occasion of a bitter family feud between tbe Booths and Toneys, Which led to an encounter a tW years agft; but which did not result fatally to any of the parties concerned. .’ The Boutbs*and Brooker Toney, .who killed the negro United States Marshal a few days ago, met in a store in the viK Lge and goon became engaged in a dead ly conflict. There werc„.three of the Booths on one side, and Toney and one or two of bis friends on tbe other. It was impossible to got an accurate adfoun- ofthe fight, but between twenty and thirty shots were .fired within a few min* utes’ time, and at its.close it was foupd that Brooker Toney and James and Thomas Booth had been killed; the three fell within forty feet of each other, aud all died within a few minutes, with out one having uttered a word. Tho fight took place on the public square and a number of spectators were wound* ed. v The casualties were aa'foflows : Topey and Jsraes and Thomas Booth, killed outright; Benjamin Booth, shot in four I hi. cs, twice through the lungs and bad* catoa, and you will commit them to ly beaten about the head, and supposed- jniUnd kold them until further orders At five o’clock p. m..
