FArRFlELD.-The good time has already
come, so far as our neighboring district is con-
cerned. We extract with pleasure, the fol-
lowing paragraph from the Winnsboro Regis
ter of Thursday:
"As, in the efo rt to ascertain the true STAN
dard of public morality of nation, its prisons,
penitentiaries, and warehouses;, are resortea
to by the investigator, we may infer that they
arc regarded by the world as such indications,
as general sule. With this aspect, it is with,
exceeding pride we make known the fact, that
from the lst ofNovember last, to the 18th inst,
the doors of the Jail have been thrown. wide
open, with every cell and room in it vacant
1t has now one occupant, who has been placed
there for the least offence punished with inn
prisonment by the law. Could every other
district say the same, Penitentiary would be-
a poor investment for State capital. Such is
the condition Of public morals here. May il
be perpetual"

Much of our space to-day is necessarily de.

eral Gushing respecting the execution Of the
fugitive slave law. In view of recent events
we look upon this as one of The most important
State papers that has of late emanated from
any Department in Washington, aud therefore
bespeak for it q careful perusal.
Many of the Northern Journals very loudly
and Justly complain Of the mob spirit so prev
aleut in eirlocalities. Between the abolition
riots, and the quarreling aud fighting between
the Know Nothings and Irish Catholics the
people are kept in continual state of excite.

DEDICATION. On Sunday last the Metho-
dist hurch, in this place, a large handsome
and admirably constructed brick edi6ce, built
by the Methodist Episcopal denomination of
Spartanburg, was dedicated as place ofreligious
worship by the Rev. Mr.. Gamewell, the Pas
tor in charge. The inclemency of the weather
prevented the attendance of many, no doubt,
who had intended to be present, yet. we are
pleased to learn that large number were pres
ent on the occasion.- Spartanburg Erprsss 10th.

CRops, BACON, &c.-The Knoxville, Tennes.

CRoPs, BACON, &c-I'he Knoxville, Tennes.
see (Register) Of the 10Th inst, says:
"From all we can learn, we are led to he.
lieve that there will be a very faircrop Of wheat
raised in Eas, Tennessee the present SEASON.
The general impression seems to be- that the crop
will not fall below, if it do,s exceed an average
one. The oat crop will be mulh better than
it has been for several years. At present the
corr, crop lunks very well and the farmers an
,iripate a large yield. The number Of stock
ho.s us large or perhaps larger than usual, and
should the corl crop turn out rs we'll as is an.
tcipated, there will he a very large amount Of
pork in East Tennessee to sell Or convert in.
to bacon. The low price which bacon hrs COM
manded the present year will cause hogs to sell
atrTow rates. Still the great excess Of grain
over the crop of the past year, will even with
lower prices, afford the farmer as handsome a
remuneration for his labor. Should the war with
Europe continue, the demand for breadstuffs
will enable our farmers to realize good prices
for their grain and -four. The best course for
them to pursue, under existing circumstances
is not to press their produce upon the market
Many who sold their corn and wheat at an
early period last fall, will appreciate this sug.
gestOn."

MODIFICATION OF THE TARIFF-Washing.
ton correspondents state the House Committee
If Ways and Mems have agreed to report a
bill for modification of the tariff, some~ hat
upon the basis suggested by Secretary Guthrie.
The bill contains five schedules Of rates.
"In the first schedule, the old one hundred
per cent. duty on braudies, liquors, &C., re-
mains unchanged. We now receive three mil
lions duties annually from this source. The
second schedule rates the duty at twenty per
cent. This includes all the articles which. in
the present tariff, vary from twenty-five 10 one
humid ed per cent. 1t also includes iron, sugar,
manufactured silk and hemp. The third sched-
ule is fifteen per cent; the fourth, ten per cent.
and the fifth five per cent, and embraces near
ly all the articles in the existing tariff, hut re-
ducing to fifteen per cent. articles which now
pay twenty; to ten per cent. articles " hich now
pay fifteen, dc.
The twenty per cent. schedule will include
raw silk and some descriptions of medicines
and dye stuffs. Fifteen per cent. is to be pla-
ced upon all unenumerated articles. Salt,
which unde- the present tariff as an enumerated
article, pays twenty per cent, is to be admit
ted free Of duty. The free list takes in all the
articles now admitted free, as well as many
articles now in the lower list Of duties.
The same committee is also considering a
plan for abolishing the direct bounties Of fishing
vessels, but which allows bonus to The same
amount on domestic salt used. The Recipr
city treaty will he submitted next week, with.
out waiting for the action of the provinces: -
Mr.. Clayton and some Northern Senators will
utterly opuose it,"

SENATOR BurLER-A iarg number OF our
citizens united, on Wednesday evening, in a
complimentary serenade to our distinguished
Senator, at his lodgings at Janney's Hotel. In
response to repeated calls for his appearance,
Judge Butler came forward, and in few brief
remarks returned thanks for the compliment
rendered to him. His Excelency Governor
Manning having also been called on, addressed
the assemblage in very appropriate manner.
The compliment was conceived in good taste,
and the recipients were worthy oft.
Senator Butler proceeded to Washington
yesterday by the Wilmington and Manchester
failroad.- Cdroliaion.

was handed in; but on being Informed that Il
ualire OF the lecture was already in type: he
consented to append the self commendation Of
Mr.. Cross t. the notice. The manuscript, of
which we have given above complete copy,
was altered so as To adapt it to the advertise"
meni. AS before remarked, We never saw MIR.
Cross, never perused his testimonials and Of
course did nut write word of the fatlerlng
commendation-neit did we authorize its
insertion in the Times. The foreman of the
office did not read it, we presume; for such ls
not part Of hi, duties. The circumstances
favor the suspicion that the Rev. Mr. Cross de
sigpedly foiSted the notice in our columns,
knowing that We were absent.
If this man be an impostor no blame what.
ever can be attached to tue friends of Temper
ance in this city, for Introducing him to the no
lice of the cninmunity He came recommend
ed to them by testimonials fom respectable
gentlemen of Charleston. and they could not,
under the circumstances act towards him 9TH.
erwise than they did act-treat him with po.
liteness and make arrangements for his lectu
ring. :,
By some this Mr.. M E. Crossis confounded
with the Rev Dr.. Cross, pastor Of one. of the
NJ E. Churches in Charleston, who is known
to be a worthy Minister Of the Gospel and an
exemplary Christian:
This circumstance should teach us all the necessity
Of more eand watchulness in recommending itine'
rant lecturers &C. We take good share Of blame TOR
having too often permitted ourselves to DO imposed
upon by unworthy characters-an error which the
press OF this State has too frequently allowed itself to
be led into.

swell mob in rather striking light. A female
Of very lady like and pleasing manners, calico
at the establishment of one of our first harN
dressers in town, and after little conversation,
requested to know il they shaved gentlemen's, S,

brother, young man Of rather racile mimi,
and that their lnedical man had thought it nd.
visable that his head should he shaved that .,e
was troubled with strange halIucinaliollS, such
as that he was member Of and belonged to

bring her brother next day, and that he he

lug, so as to forcibly shave his head. aud that
they were to pay no attention to his pr"tes,a-
,ions of being member Of the great firm she
had mentioned. Having succeeded se far in
binding the worthy hardresser, who promised
to have everything in.readine>s, she took her
leave. Next day she called at the drapery es.

considerable quantity Of silk goods. and stated

the goods then left in cab, and when opp"-
site the hairdresser's establishment she told Der
companion that if he would go along with her,
she would get as much money as would make
the amount of the bill. The unsusperting
youth went in, and was met by the perfumer
in the most bland manner, who requested him
to walk up stairs, which he did, not dolhting
but that he was TO receive payment OF the bill.
No sooner, however, had the unfortunate wight
entered the room than he was pounced upon,
and despite all his protestations that he belong
ed to such and such an establishment, which,
of course, were put down to his unfortunate
state of mind, he was speedily denuded of his
tres>es. The lady, who had in the meantime
been looking on with GOODNESS, now said, as
she was afraid that her presence only caused
greater excitement to her unfortunate brother.
she would leave and return il a short time.-
She decamped accordingly, goods and all, and
has not since been heard of-GLasgoU Citizen.
