1t will be seen by reference to our postscript
head that on the SD ballot Gen. Scott was NOM
mated as the Wing candidate for President
The intelligence of Mr.. Fillmores defeat will I'M
aoubtedIy be received with regret and disappoint-
ment by the Wings of this State, but we err
ogregiously in our estimate of their good sense
and PATRIOTISM if they not found ready cheer
fully tosurrender their personal preferences in be-
half of the common cause, and to lend their cor
dial support TO the nominee of the party. We
are informed by telegraph that Gen, Scott has &C
platform of principles laid down by the .Conven
lion. This we think is enough to satisfy any
Southern man of his entire soundness on thu
slavery question and to refute the unworthy ca
lumnies of his enemies.

The Crops.-trhe WakuHa Times, published at
Newport, Fla, says that it is feared that the heavy
rains OF the past week will prove injurious to the,
coming crops which previously had promised
finely. The Lancaster South Carolina Ledger
says that the crops in Sumter, kershaw, Lam
caster, and Fairfield Districts really look well,
corn especially, and is rejoiced to hear that far
mers generally have devoted a larger portion of
their lands to the cultivation of corn than is usually
the case. In Edgefeld District, as we learn from
the advertiser, wheat has been harvested and tho
farmers generally report average crop. The
Dat crops it is anticipated will be good one.
Cotton, however, the Advertiser says is not better
than usual. The cool nights of the present week
have caused it to look quite dropping and in some
localities to dieou considerably. The corn crop
in Edgefeld is generally fine The ADVERTISER
says that the only difficulty in the way of its
present rapid progress to mature abundance, is
the immense amount OF grass and weeds which
accompany its upward growth. Should there fall
however. few more soaking showers, corn will
be plentiful, grass or no grass.

The Washington Telegraph says that Wes-

since, that Gen. Pierce would find more difficulty
in travelling through the West next fall than has
ever been experienced by any other man. .'He

shoals, narrows and sawyers in our rivers, and
nothing but miry roads and deep ravines ON land.
