The Carolina Spartan says that the dwelling
Mouse of Mr. Wyatt Hawkins, on Fair Forrest,
was destroyed by fire on the night of the 9th

The Yorkville Enquirer, of last Thursday, says
The dry weather continues throughout the

IN consequence been fearfully injured. Added to
this is the unreliability of the labor resulting in
bad cultivation, which, with the severe drouth
now prevailing, must result in scarcity of food
and suffering. The prospect for farmers is dis
couraging i'll the extreme.

The Democracy Of Montgomery County
are hereby requested TO assemble In Mass
Convention, at Beckel Hall. In the City of

ing Delegates to attend the Annual State
Convention of the Democratic Party, to be

nomination Candidates for the several
State Offices to be filed at the ensuing Oc-
tober election.
Montgomery County is entitled to eleven
delegates, according TO the basis of repre-
sentation.
The issues before the people are of the
most important character. Among these
may be mentioned the speedy restoration
of our Federal Union, with all the rights,
equality, and dignity of the States unim-
paired, but which Is now unhapply pre-
vented by faction of vile demagogues and
malignant traitors, who seek to cover their
guilt, under the euphonious title of Union
men; and yet, by force of numbers, deny to
eleven States of this Union, the right of
representation, thus adopting the spirit and
doctrine of disunion itself. They are seek
ing to reduce these States to mere depen-
denotes, to place their citizens in q state of
tutelage, and TO exercise a tyranny over
them, in denying to them the right of self
government.

WAsuINGroN, April "a.


There are now about sl70,O000O0 in the
public Treasury, and the Secretary of the
Treasury believes that the time has come
when the Government should no longer
receive temporary loans. The following
circular was issued to-day by Mr.. McCul-
loch:

"Notice Is hereby given that on the 18th
day OF May, 1866, the interest on all certiii-
Gates of deposit on account of temporary
loans other than issued for Clearinghouse
purposes then outstanding and unpaid, will
be reduced-to the uniform rate OF five per
cent. per annum from that date, and all
persons then holding such certificates In
which higher rate -of,iaterest Is specified,

assumed In the Senate.

that the sum could not be paid without
