HI SOUTH CAROLINA CROPS.

The Commissioner of Freeimens Affairs
last week received dispatches from Charleston,
,. O., in which 1t is stated as probable that the
people will not raise as large crops as those
produced before the war. Many planters who
made a fair beginning, with the hope that
some turn of fortune would furnish them
the means TO carry them through, Will be
compelled TO abandon The idea of raising a
crop, for want OF provisions to feed the freed
people working for them. While number of
the planters failed TO attempt to plant on their
own responsibility, bnt turned their planta-
tons over to the freed people. to- be cultivated
by them, they giving tie owners of the lands
some hare OF the crops. This is the case more
particularly on the Sea Islands, and along the
coast for miles into the interior; also. through
thai portion of the State where the armies
passed in 1864 and 1865. The colored peopIe
there finding themselves suddenly free, with
no power 10 guide and direct them properly,
supposed that with freedom all other things
would be added, and in 1o65 made little pro.
vision for the future. There are a great num-
Der Of people, both white and black, who find
themselves with n fair crop, and in many
instances with 4 large crop planted. and with
no means TO feed either themselves or their
laborers, until the time when the products Of
their labor can De gathered and sold.
