Crops IN THE PEE DEE SEcT1oS.-A

Crops IN THE PEE DEE SEcTIoN.-A
correspondent of the Charleston Ne'es
writes:
aIt is difficult to give reliable opinion
as to the crops in the Pee Dee country.
So far as my observations extend, the
corn crop appears to be poor There was
not SO much planted, as compared with
the csop before tho war, and the cultiva-
tion has been slovcnly. The grain crop,
although better than last year, will not
bo sufficient for the country, and large
supplies will be required from abroad.
The cotton crop is undoubtedly better in
the Pee Dee country thanit was last year,
but it will not turn out what it promised
some weeks ago. There has been too
much rain for cotton all through the sea-
son. and the rust is now blasting the plant
rapidly. This crop will stand bad treat
mcnt and disasters better than any other
grown at the South; but this year very
late planting, heavy rains during the en-
tire season. and very imperfect culture,
will undoubtedly cut this production
down much below general expectation.
These impressions, derived principally
from observation. are confirmed by the
planters in the country"

The DRuNKARD's HoME.-Who can
picture the woe Of such home ? The
home where all was once joy and happi-
ness, where proud husband and father
once dwelt with his wife and children.
Now, alas! how sadly changed, for the
temptcr has been there! The once pleas
ant home has been neglected. The cpatch-
ed window, the dilapidated fence, and the
changed and gloomy aspect of every thing
without, would tell the beholder of the
ruin that was there, even should lie not
enter. In the interior of tho dwelling
how sad must everything appear Let
us enter, gaze around. and mark the look
of its inmates.
There sits the pale, care-worn wifewith
such q display of patient suffering upon
her features that the tears OF pity invoi.
unfairly start to oureyes. Where arethc
rosy checks and smiling lips that used to
greet us? Alas! as We gaze upon the
faded being before us, and think of the
husband who solemnly promised before
God to be her protector through life, and
who cast that blight upon her-a drunk
ards wite-wc should almost curse .llii1.~
We next gaze upon the little ones with
mournful faces and pleading eyes, raised
so lovingly to our own-eyes which, tell
IL deep and bitter tale Of want. woe and
and suffering. How ourheart blccds that
childhood which should be SO happy, must
so carly learn the gricvous truth that they
are drunkard's children Doubtless their
little hearts are often filed with the re-
mcmbrancc OF other days. wheD they wero
happy when a fathers watchfu.. care
and a mothers tender love was theirs,
and they never sighed for food, or crept
shivering together in Il corner because
they were so cold and SO thinly clad.
In a distant corner on bundle Of
straw, lays miserable bloa4cti figure,
whose heavy breathing tells us he is
sleeping off the effects Of the poison which
has brought him down to the lowest de-
gree of poverty and shame. We gazo.
upon the wreck of manhood before us,
and vainly strive to trace out the noble
look we used to see upon those features,
in place of blood-shot eyes and idiotic
stare, the trembling limbs and tottering
frame.
How earnestly we pray the temptor
may be banishcd from our hearts-thc
tcmptcr that destroys so many youths Of
this land.

FREE SCHOOLS AT THE SouTH.-We clip
the following paragraph from one of our
Northern exchanges:
The American Frccdmcn's Union Com
mission and its auxilaries are laboring
with enlightened zeal to open the way
for the Introduction at the South of the
free school system Of the North. AT the
present time they are especially anxious
to secure the cooperation of the freed pco-
pie in the support of the schools A con-
ference Of delegates from the various So
cietics was lately held in this city-Judge
Bond, Of Baltimore, in the chair-to de-
wise plan for carrying this object into i.
effect. The result arrived at is embodied
in the following rcsolutions:
l. Resolued That the best interests of
the freed people require the permanent
establishment of free schools in the South (;
that, as in the Northern free school sys-
tenn, the people should cooperate in their
support; and, therefore, that no new
schools should be established, except
where cooperation can be secured.
8. Rcsolced, That our teachers and
agents in the South should organize the
people into associations TO raise means
to aid in the establishment and support
of their schools.

THE NEGRO YorE AS a BALANCE OF
PowEn.-The radicals, seeing the swelling
torrent of public sentiment rising against
their negro supremacy policy, begin to
sing small One OF their organs in this
city had labored article yesterday, ap.
pealing patheticaIly to the public in behalf
of the ':poor negro II asks, ''Shall four
millions of our countrymen be henceforth
serfs aud outcasts in the land oftheir birth,
with their descendants through all gene,
ralions2" 1t calls this "the main question,
the great question remaining to be solved
by tho judgment and voters OF the Amer
icaFeople." Now, this is the merest
badcrdash ard clap-trap nonsense. The
writer knows very well, if he has any
sense, that the four millions of his colorcd
conntrymcn are neithcrscrts nor outcasts,
and never can be again. They arc on
perfect equality with the whites as re-
CARDS their civil rights and before the law:
Ii Il portion of them should be excluded
from Certain political privileges for time
and for great public reasons, that would
be nothing more than what happens to
many white people in this republic and
landof equal rights. All tins talk ABOUT
the negroes being scrts and outcasts is
supreme nonsense, and is made for the
purpose of binding the American people
to the real object of the radicals No,
there is no fear of the negroes not having
their rights; and that is not the real
question. The object of the radicals is to
make the negro vote the balance OF pow
er in ourpoilcal system and government.
A small party sometimes holds the bal,
arcc. us we often sec, in both State and
general elections. The four millions of
blacks in the South may become the
ruling power of the republic through
holding that balance. We sec already
how dcmoralzcd and extreme the Repub-
lican party has become in its efforts to
get the negro vote. What will not that
party or any other do to gain power
through the negro vote, if thas vote can
givc7it? In fact, we are now in danger
of having this great republic governed by
the negroes and in the interests of ne
yrocs. This is 'stho main question" really
at issue, aud all the prelcncc about negro
rights is sheer hnmbug-N. Y. Herald.

Wilson on impeachment.

In his speech before the Massachusetts,
Radical convention in Boston on Wednes-
day last, Senator Wilson said:
'The equality of men in the States, and
the equality of States in the Union, are
not yet established by irrcversible guar
antccs. There is an obstacle at the
White House. That obstacle has been.
and now is, and will continue to be, an
inspiration to reactionary hopes and
strivings, malignant passions and cruel
deeds Had Andrew Johnson co-operatcd
with Congress, needed the voice OF the
people of the loyal States, and met the
needs of the loyal people of the rebel
States, the equal rights of the freedmen
would have ere this been assured, the in
surrcctionary States restored, the nation
united, and his -name would have been
forever associated with the martyred Lin
coin in the love, gratitude and admiration
of loyal America. The masses OF the
republican party turned trustfully and
hopefully to him when their great leader
was stricken down, to lead in the grand
est work of the age. But when he went
over to the camp of the men who had
fought against their country or sympa-
thized with them, they resolved to 60 on
without him, or in spite OF him, to the IL
nal accomplishment of the mighty task
imposed upon them by their endangered
country. Into the keeping of traitors
Andrew johnson put the rebel States; in
to the keeping of-unrcpentant of rebels he
has strven to keep those States. Every
measure to protect the loyal white men of
the rebel States, every measure to secure
the rights Of the freedmen, every meas
urc to weaken the rule of the rebel chiefs,
Civil Rights bill, Frcedmen's Bureau bills,
Suffrage bills, Reconstruction bills and
Amendatory bills-all have been vetoed
by him. When the Republican masses in
their magnanimity refused to demand I'M
peachment, when the Republicans in.Con-
gress forebore to press impeachment they
knew he mcrited, trusting that they could
save their country and vindicato equal
rights in spite of his misconduct, lie def
antly continued to inspire resistance TO
the will Of the nation-darcd his fate
and now hundreds ofthousands who have
held back from lis impeachment are stern
ly demanding it,"

THE FINANCIAL CoNDITIoN.-The Na-
tioaal IatelHgeacer, of Saturday, says:
The. recent spasn in the money and
stock marlietin New York is still the
subject OF much comment. Opinions seem
to Be various ais To The causes OF the tenn
polary disturbance. Spectators are, on
the whole, benefited by all these tempo
rary commissions, to the prejudice OF the
entire community, of commerce and legli-
mate dealers. The vast sums of money
that haze changed hands in Wall street
during the last few. weeks have not Injured
to the benefit of amy productive INDUSTRY.
It5woud have boon better if the same
amounts had been won and lost in com
mon gambling; for.thcn the fluctuations
in gencr;tl prices would not have occurred
tosthe injnry of business atfpii's.
While we have large redundant pa
per currency, and the present banking
system. such fluctuations will continually
occur and recur.
The Treasury has had less 70 do with
the matter than is supposed i'll New York
The. bears have represented that the
Government ruined their promising gold
ring by selling gold atthe moment when
they expected the premium to reach for
ty.SlX or. fifty
The tact..is, that the currency had been
reduced before those gold sales, by drai.,-
ing the deposit banks. and by Withdraw
ing grcenbacls, cancelingg some, and lock,
inc 8! u up others, and by rising demand
for money to move the crops
The main policy Of the Treasury is 10
maintain large gold reserve Thls poll
cy has been, and will still continue to DC,
strictly adhered to. This reserve is more
useful in keeping down the gold premium
than large sales would be. The Treasury
did not sell in the present month nearly
so much gold as it trcceived from duties
1t so happened, thatoflate the receipts
of gold from customs have been unusually
large, and the receipts from internal rcvc-
nue very low. The demands upon the
Treasury wcic also lower than usual
Gold was. sold to meets these demands.
and maybe again if.neccssary.
The gold reserve will. however. be
mantained> for the 'easa5i...: il..nS others,
that the gold interest. 1ayHblcin Novem-
Der, will be of large amount.
