RENEW Your GARDENS. "A cores
pendent of the Camden Journal,
whose editor-Mr. Pegues-we know
to be famous gardener, says that
Irish potatoes, planted this month,
will produce good crop by frost.
The seed may be obtained in digging
the spring crop, by selecting those
too small for use, and drying them in
the shade for day or two. Snap
beans, planted by the 1st of August,
will afford an abundant supply, and
any of the extra early variety of peas
will como in before frost.
PLAIN TALK.-Mr. Raymond, of
the New York Times, says that
"unless the dcmoralization which
has been going on in the public SER
vice for the last ten years can be
checked, and that speedily, our whole
financial system must utterly break
down. For when it comes to be
understood that rogues can and do
systematically escape taxation, honest
men will refuse to pay" This is to
the point, and we hope that our in
fiuential contemporary will put his
shoulder to the wheel, and earnestly
work to prevent such :. national ca
lamity.

highways of Columbia, known only
by being laid down as snch on n map

opened for travel as such.
The case of the petitioners was
ably advocated by Hon. Joseph d.
