throughout the entire neighbor

country, Which greatly revived the
general appearance of our crops;
while they were not really suffer

crop is very flattering, both corn
and eotton. The melon crop bids
fair to bo remunerative. Melton

•Judge Clarke,Col. A. Forte, Judge
Kiddoo and others are expected
to address tho moetlng. It ap
pears that from some slip in
the advertisement of the no
tices for an election on the stock
law by the Ordinary, that tho elec,
tion whioh was advertised for July
second, will not come off, because
of the shortness of tbe notioe, being
twenty-nino instead of thirty days.
This puts off the election for an
other 12 months, as the day of
such elections is fixed by law to
come off the first Wednesday in
July.
The abandoned wretch, Alf
Hainey who has been hunted for
the past month, skulking from tbe
charge of attempted rape on tbe
person of Mrs. Fincher, a nioo white
lady, came in and delivered himself
up to Mr. T. J. Mctbvin, who im
mediately took him to jail in Fort
Gaiues. He denies the charge after
hiding himself in tho swamps for a
month or more. The law will
doubtless deal justly by him. Fears
wero entertained that if over found,
be would be despatched in a sum
mary manner, but wiser counsel
prevailed, and he now lies in jail to
await trial in tbo proper court.
The present presidential outlook
is that Governor Cleveland, of New
York, and McDonald, of Indiana,
will be the Democratic nominees
for president and vice president
which will be a strong tioket. My
private preference is for Bayard
though, perhaps he is not the man
to win the race. As it appears
that tbe time has como when we
must overlook ability, honesty, and
fitness for office, and consider only
availability, a sad state oi affaire

snd whero he was not properly at

ports good crops, and will mako so
and so if tbe seasons continue. Wo
notice good deal of very small cot
ton In tbe county, but the proprie

we think it will be a small kind of

Tho way of the speculator, like
that of the transgressor, is some
times hard. At the Oil Exchange -
in Pittsburg Saturday there was
one of tbe most remarkable squecz- ‘
cs of the season, owing to the
scarcity of money. Many of the
most responsible operators were
uuable to obtain a sufficiency of
cash to cover thoir margins evon -4
when tho best collaterals were of
fered. Under the pressure to sell
tbe prico dropped from 56je. per
barrel to 50(0. One lot; of 11,000: J
barrels was sold because the holder
could not raise *900, although lie
olorcd good securities for twenty
times tbo amount. The money was
not to bo had just at that time.
Ten minntes after the oil had been - _
sold a friend stepped up with a Urge
amount of money, but it was too r -'
late.
Sir Titus Salt, of Saltaire, Eng.,

men who, several years ago, sc-
cured a tract of 48,000 acres of
Und forty miles north of Chatta
