TIE WEATHER AND THE CRops-We have
had week Of variety as regards the weather.
Scarcely day has passed since our last
issue that the thermometer has not ranged
in the neighborhood Of ninety degrees, and We
have had showers of rain, with thunder and
lightning, accompanied by tornadoes of daily
occurrence. A large tree near our Office was
uprooted on the occasion of the melancholy dis
aster to the steamer R. E. Bell. We hear
nothing but gloomy accounts from our planters
The waters are subsiding, but leaving blghted
prospects behind. We understand many plant
ers have discharged their hands, having no
further use for them. We are yet hopeful that
their all is not lost, but that the continued
showers will prevent the hot suns from burn
ing up vegetation, and that the ouerstretched
rice will gather strength to support its over
grown structure. Georgetoarn Times.
LARGE FIRE AT TIaMoNsv1LLE.-On We'd
nesday morning, the 10th instant, between the
hours of two and three o'clock A. NJ, as we
have been informed, the storehouse Of Mr.. Jas.
T. Bristow was discovered on FIRE, and in o
very short time six prominent business houses
were consumed with most of their contents.
The loss is supposed to be about Sl5,eO0, with
a known insurance of $4,000.

sent. Owing to the very small crop of cotton
last year, and the almost total failure of corn,
nearly every planter in South Carolina COM
menced operations last spring upon advances
made by his factor; not upon usurious interest,
for we have no usury laws now. The money
was borrowed at market rates. But these
same rates are, nevertheless, ruinous to the
farmer. Agricultural implements, fertilizers,
seeds, corn, hay, bacon, everything the year
through, has been purchased on these terms,
from one and q half to two and half per cent
amonth. five have good cotton year, the farm
ers may perhaps be able to pay their factors.
They will have little if any more. If anything
however, should happen to injure the crop Sc
riously, or if cotton should fall much below the
present rate, large part of the planting in
terest of South Carolina must pass into other
hands,
But 1 am wandering too far from my text.
propose to speak of Darlington, and not to
write jeremiad upon the prospects of the
country. Darlington last year (the crop of
ls66-'67) raised about 5000 bales, about one
third, it is thought, of what was consid-
cred good average crop before the war. The
growing crop will probably reach from 10000
to u 900 bales, or half full -bellum crop.
Corn last year in this district was an entire
failure. Everybody buys Heretofore it is
well known it was considered bad husbandry
for farmer to have to buy corn or long fod
der. 1t was almost viewed as blot on his
character. In good year, before the war, the
corn crop of Darlington District amounted to
about 400, 900 bushels. The corn crop thus far
bids fair to be far superior to last years Still
it is feared there is not enough breadth of
land planted to feed the State.
This District has never produced much
wheat; it is only cultivated in the upper part of
it, and more among small farmers than the
large planters. So with the other small
grains They are but little known here. Pork
was largely raised here up to recent period.
In fact the District throughout produced its
own meat But this has been attended with
great difficulties the last few years, and is now
oil but impossible. The cause we have already
given above, viz: the too great fondness of GER
tain parties for roast pig. TRAVELLER.

The SCIENCE AND ART Of medicine has met
with great loss in the death of NJ. TRoUssEAu,
who died recently at the age of sixty-six. He
was born at Tours in 1901. Like VELPEAU and
many other distinguished physicians he studied
under BREToNNEAU, one of the wisest and
most original medical minds of modern times,
whose influence and silent impress upon the
science has been greater even than his reputa-
ton. NJ. TRoussEAu occupied the chair of
Therapeutics and Materia Medica in the Facul-
ty Of Paris since 1889, and by his success as
practitioner and his huency and pleasing
elocution in his lectures acquired great reputa-
ton as a teacher. He was the author of sew
eral large works and of numerous mono
graphs and miscellaneous articles for various
scientific journals,

The WEATHER AND THE CRops.-In our
last paper we gave rather fattering report
concerning the crops in our District. We made
this statement from the information of several
of our farmers, and from our own observation
in and around Bennettsville. We have since
been informed that the crops in the lower part
of the District and on the river plantations
were very badly injured by the late rains, and
great quantity of corn and cotton were
drowned and considered irrecoverably lost.
Crops of all kinds are damaged more or less,
and it is feared that the corn and cotton crop
will fall far short in this section. There seems
to be complete failure in the fruit crops,
especially apples and peaches. The crops in
the lowlands are almost entirely destroyed, but
the corn and cotton crops in the uplands are
doing very well. We have been visited for the
past two weeks with daily rains, with the ex-
ception of two or three days intermission,
sometimes accompanied by strong winds, seri-
ously damaging the corn and cotton crops.
