Rocky POINT, NC, August, 1860.
NfessFS. Editors: As crops good in nearly every
part of the State it may not interest many of your dis
tant readers but think will be highly gratifying to all
citizens of NeW Hanouer to learn that Spring Garden
has crop fully meeting the fondest anticpations of the
planters in that section. Among the good crops of
Spring Garden and vicinity that OF DR.. S. S. Satch-
well forms a conspicuous pare. The Doctor as is well
known stands prominent physician but this year,
by bis energy and goahead SYSTEM has proved to the
establishment of many old farmers, that be is also far
mer of the right stripe His present crop speaks loudly
for itself and any farmer visiting this farm, will be
highly pleased with the prospect He has upland Corn
as good as the eye of this county witnessed in
body of $50 acres He also has IL acres of swamp
land that outstrips Imagination. Here you find acres
sown in Chinese Sugar Cane, which the State, in my
belief has never produced equal. The land is
ed from vew even in the centre of the rows and stalks
averaging in hill, from II to Is feet high. Dear
reader imagine yourself standing upon the high banks
OF the Roanoke looking down upon Of the very largest
canebrakes that grew the fiat lands of that no
BILE stream and you have faint idea of DIR. Satchwes
ow-land Sugar Cane. The Dr. is now feeding seventy
hogs constantly from this immense crop and will an
doubtedy have plenty to fdten the entire stock upon
the farm BESIDES he has colards in sufficient quantity
to serve all necessary feed to hogs cows other stock
usually fond of vegetables. The Dr. is thoroughly fixed
upon making Cotton another year, which your humble
servant feels confident will finally establish the growing
of that moneymakng weed upon the minds of planters
all over the county who may chance to see the DR. s
crop Of 1861 Your friend, c.

The ARKANSAS ELECTIoN.-There seems to be some
mistake about who is the successful candidate for Gov
ernor in Arkansas The telegraph announced johnson
elected by 10000 majority. But so far as the party
concerned, it is matter of moment. Both johnson
and Rector are for Breckenridge and Lane. The Holly
Springs Star (Arkansas) says: The latest accounts
show the election of sound Breckenridge Democrats
The report that Hon. Thos. Hindman was defeated in
the Northern district for Congress- is untrue. He
reelected by small majority. Mr. Cant, (Dem,) was
elected 10 Congress from the Southern district. Mr.
Henry III. Rector, was elected Governor. Arkansas
has done her duty in thus sencng faction and fusion
and will speak in trumpet tones for Breckenridge and
Lane in November.

The reaction in the provision market has attracted

Very few Offering, which by is taken indica

prospective abundance of corn and that every farmer
will have enough to feed all the hogs he has, and more
than enough; and hence none want to sell any, but
many desire to buy.

MASSACRE AT WILLIAMS SrATIoN.-0smer
Darst, formerly a resident of Nevada,) who re-
sides at Gold Hill, near Virginia City, sends
under date of May 10th, says the Union, to his
partner Mr.. Harris, who lives on the Stockton
road, about ten miles from Sacramento, the fol-
lowing facts, which discloses, as he alleges, the
whole truth as to the real cause of the late mas
sacre at Williams Station, in Carson Valley
The number of white men said to be burned diff
fers slightly from the counts first given, but
these accounts also differ from each other.
Osmer Darst states that an old Indian went to
Williams house with a squaw, when four white
tied the buck Indian and then each COM
mitted an atrocious outrage upon the Indian
woman. They then let the buck 20. He after
wards came back with OF er Indians, and put a
white woman, who was in the house, out OF doors
and also three white men who had had moth NJ
to de with the outrage. They then bound tue
four white men who abused the squaw and
burned them IN the house.
Mr.. Darst gives the above facts to his partner
on the authority Of the white woman, who Is
now stopping at Silver City.

THE STATE OF MAxHATTAS.-Some of the
people of New York city feel so annoyed by leg
islative action affecting their municipal affairs
that they threaten to call for division of the
State. The Netcs says that four ffths of the
100000 voters south of the Highlands would be
in favor of it. In such an event adds the Ne,os
" New York, South, or the State of Manhattan
although smaller in territory, would be as strong
in every necessary element of power and great
ness as the State she separated from. We should
enjoy also the privileges of making our own
laws and choosing our own rulers-a privilege
for which our fathers fought and bled. We
their sons, and the inheritors of their principles
would be recreant to the sacred trust bequeathed
us by them should we submit to what they would
not submit"

the northern route is the one by which best

1t is shorter by an average Of three hundred
and sixteen miles than the Central route.
Puget Sound affords the best and safest harbors
in the world, and is some three hundred miles
nearer Canton and Jeddn than is San Francisco.
The vicinity furnishes an abundant supply OF
coal fit for steamer use, which can be said OF

A PHENOMENON IN ADDITIoN.-A young man
of slight figure presented himself TO usyesterday,
with letters of recommendation from various re-
sponsible parties in Ohio, regardrg certain
wonderful talent which he possesses, and his
meaus of teaching others to great extent what
he knows. His name is IIutchings, and he is a
native of this city. This peculiar facility he
discovered only year since, and it is surpri-
sing as to merit notice apart from the flct that
he teaches and il iividuals. He will take
three columns OF figures, and more quickly than
an ordinary person can read them, or instan-
tsneously, give the sum in addition without fail.
The whole is quick as flash. and appears to set
aside all the ordinary proceedings of the mind.
His manner of doing this, however, is c1nvulsive.
The figures being written down a board, he
seizes piece of chalk, and as he writes down
the amount, he utters it in a loud tone, appar-
emily in an estacy. He says this is not gift
but a scientific process which he can impart to
pupils The effect to us was that of brain over
wrought by concentration to a single thing; but
he says his health is improved by the practice.
If less convusive style be attainable in this in
stantaneons mode of addition, it will be of i'm
mense advantage in trade commerce. and sci
ence, and revolutonize the tedious mode of
addition throughout the world.-Ne,o York Tri-
