We have had a very rough wir# and the farmers have done no fail =11 work, such aa plowing. Several < b= them intended sowing more oats i _ February but it looks now like tht will not get to. What was sown i the fall have been damaged lay ti frefezes but those sown in good ope furrows are standing the cold fair] well. We have bad all kinds < Iveather this winter. Who ever sa !he trees covered]'with ice and tl sun shine all day. aij(J did not me it off? That was the case one da this winter. The Dutch tell us ice hangs on the trees the 14th < February we will have a good fru I 1 year, it so we will have plenty < fruit this year.

If you want 1 find out what he is worth, althoug apparently well to do, go to h home and you'll findf out. So jut go to New York or other mont centers and you will find out whi our grand old State is,:worth. Ii deed, it is stange that a poor perso will try to be up with the rich an worse for counties and a Stal to try to show up with their well-fc do States for we have brilliant me in South Carolina. O.
