Since | last wrote you on 3lst ult., the
prospects of the Cotton crop in this region
have undergone d considerable change.
The Caerpiller aud Bore Worm have
appeared all over the country, and have
committed great ravages. particularly in
the North Mississippi Counties. Planters
who were confident Two weeks ago that
they would make full crops, now talk Of
half a crpp. All the flowers >and young
bolls ofiasl month are destroyed, and many
fields are entirely stripped Of foliage. l
think there is no doubt Of short crop in
this region. .As,o frost it does not now

CHARLESTON, September 24lI, 1910.
Mr.. Editor-DEAR SIR-lf am not mis,a
ken, the Charter was renewed at the las, ses-
siou of the Legislature for building a Rail Road
from Aiken to Edgefeld c. H., and have been
looking in your valuable paper, to see an ac'
conn, Of some large Rail Road meeting, at
Edse6eld, to devise means for having the Road
bull, ut once, It. some of your enterprising
men would take hold Of The Subject in good
earnest, I think, the work would soon be ac'
complished,, for it 3would bring a good market
10 your place., for all the produce Of the up
country: and enhance the value of every acre
Of land in lei, aS fifteen miles of your place,
and bring the Charleston Marke, to your doors.
I, does seemso me, ,hatthere are one hundred
citizens of yolf district, If they knew their in
,eres,, ,ha, would subscribe. one thousand dol
lars, each, and with the assistance Of,he State
your village would soon become town, and
business of every kind would flourish, instead
of being so dull as i now is. 81.

Patriot wTiiles that a letter has been re-
ceived from the, q. S. Squadron in the
Gulf which gives as The substance Of The
Mexican governments response to the
peace proposition, thatt,hey refuseto lis
ten to any propositions until the land and
naval forces Of the United States are with
drawn from the territories Of Mexico.-
The writer Of The, Washington lleller says
he is strongly assured that this is the sub
stance Of lhe intelligence received by the
President on Saturday evening. 1T is
strange thattiere is no mention of this
matter 10 the Washington papers. 1t is,
however, by no means improbable, that
such may have been the character Of The
Mexican reply: 1t IS one worthy Of a
