CROPS AND FARMS IN EDGECoMBE. Last
years crop of cotton is put at Is, 900 bales,
of 400 pounds each and the crop of this
year will be largely in excess of that of
last year-provided the weather is propi-
tious. Justnow the crop looks badly. 1t
has sickly, yellowish appearance, where
up and the ground is SO baked, that the
planters expect to be compelled to replant
that which is not up. It requires hot sun
to bring it out.
Corn and wheat look well, and the latter
especially promises good yield. Wherever
[ have been through this county, the lands
exhibit an appearance of careful and in
telligent cultivation. They are fiat, and
require a heavy expenditure for ditching
This is not done here, as in other parts
of the State which ] have visited, by leav-
ing the bitches open, and thus wasting a
large quantity of ground =; but by system
of underground drainage by tiles, which
leaves the surface unbroken, and enables
the planter to run his rows from end to
end Of the field.
This system requires more outlay at first
but repays hundred fold in the saving OF

Queer IaIopesnent in New Jersey.

town, III New Jersey, becoming enamOred
If the wife OF one Thomas Pierce, with
F-hOm, runl0r has it, he has maintained an
utimacy for year or two past, finally re-
eolved to desert home and family to unite
his fortunes with the more youthful wife of
his neighbor. With this object in view
Chaffy recently mortGaged his farm for
1000, sold off his stock, and taking about
81 800 belonging to his wife, left home
ostensibly to go to the city to purchase
government bonds, but really to meet Mrs.
Pierce and her husband in New York,
thence to take steamer for California. The
story goes that Chaffy is to pay Pierce
$4,000 for his wife, delivered in the Golden
State; and it is now known that the trio
sailed from New York -ast week for the Pa
ciic coast. Chaffy leaves q wife and six
children, two of the latter being married.
Mrs. Pierce has one child, which she took
with her, and IS we'll sold at Sc, 900. Chafy
vas formerly an active member of the
Methodist Church, but wandered from the
fold. Last winter, however, he and Mrs.
Piece were among the converts to the Bap
list faith, being baptized in the mill pond
in mid-winter with nearly hundred others
-lded to the church. His farm is probably
worth from SIS, 600 to $40, GOO, upon which
his wife and children will continue to re-
side. 4 brother of the infatuated old gen
tleman is said to have followed the party
10 California. Pierce left some unpaid
bills behind, and his creditors are hopeful
that lie may get his Sc, 600 and return.
The affair has afforded a fund of gossip for
the country roundabout

sutc,de of Hon. Elijah Hiso,

The suicide of Hon. Elijah Hise, who
was chosen to fill q vacancy IN the Ken
lucky delegation to the Thirty-ninth Con-
gress, and held q seat during its last ses-
sion, presents some features Of rather unu-
sual interest Mr. Hises views, which
were those of the old State-Tights school,
we're naturally received with good deal Of
mpatience by the House, which was per
haps unwilling to give to his honesty and
straightforwardnesS of character the con-
sideration which it deserved. He IS said,
of late, to have brooded much over the
condition of public affairs, and to have
gradually fallen into q settled melancholy,
bordering at least on insanity. He left be-
hind him, it is stated, q note, saying that
his advanced age rendered him powerless
to effect any change for the better, and he
preferred not to make the attempt We
find in the New York Times an anecdote
which well illustrates his peculiar tempera-
ment:
''Mr. Hise was q short, stout man, Of
dark complexion, with irOn-gray hair,
brushed back from his forehead, hand
some earnest face which bore the marks OF
the deep, sad concern, which he felt to his
hearts core for the condition and prospects
of the country. He had clear, logical
mind, and always made speeches well wor-
thy of degree of attention which was sell
dom given them in that House. On one
occasion, during Il night session, when he
was brought in long after midnight under
a call of the House and required to give a
reason for his absence, he proceeded to say
that he was wearied by the long session
and greatly depressed in spirit by the tone
of the debates, and what seemed to him
the sad condition of public affairs and
feeling that he could be of no service there,
he had yielded to this depression and gone
home. Quite incapable of believing such
declarations sincere and entitled to respect,
the members were inclined to regard them
as insulting to the dignity of the House,
and demands were made that they should
be resented and punished. Conscious Of
his own perfect sincerity, Mr. Hise was ut
terly bewildered by this reception of what
he had said-but after little time he pro-
ceeded, while disavowing any such thought
or purpose as was imputed to him, to ex-
plain and vindicate what he had said and
this he did with so much feeling and digni-
ty, that even the soothing railers who had
assailed him were forced into silence and
respect. He was Eman of the greatest
possible sincerity-of fine talents, an ac-
complished and successful lawyer, and held
in the highest personal esteem by all who
knew him. He has given proof of the
depth and earnestness Of his fears Tor the
country, which even, those who do not
share cannot fail to respect.

WOMAN'S CALLING.

WOMAN's CALLING.
Not in the crowded halls of state,
Not in the halls where justice pleads,
Is woman called to take her seat
And show the glory of her deeds.
Not at the polls, where men are loud
To challenge whom that right may boast,
To tell her wisdom to the crowd,
And name the knight she values most;
Not as juror or judge,
Detective, magistrate, or spy,
Or Sheriff through the State to trudge,
Are womans talents to apply.
Not on the oceans foamy tide,
With rugged, bold, and hardy crew,
The stately ships wide course to guide,
Is wOman's service due.
She is not called in summers heat
With man to guide the plough,
Nor side by side his blows repeat
To lay the forest low.
Nor is she called TO light the forge,
Or blast the finty rock;
Ner in the field to bear the charge
OF battles bloody shock.
Size is not called. with sweat and toll,
To rear the lofty dome;
Nor DER the deserts burning soil
Or oceans depths to roam.
No. Heaven be praised! her weaker hand
Was formed for nicer skill,
And God will at her hand demand
The purpose of His will.
Hers is a narrower, noblcr sphere;
A higher, holier trust:
The golden badge Of love to wear,
Which time can never rust.
She makes the home hallowed spot,
And man with eager soul
WhatGer he be, Whate'er his lot
Finds there its dearest goal.
There God has placed mighty power
Which woman needs must Wleld;
4 power of love for every hour,
That man can never yield.
There ali her nobler powers find room
Their purest light to shed,
And spread through life tadeless bloom,
While glory crowns her head.
And there her gentle hand may soothc
The fever-tOsslng head;
The restless sieeper's pillow smooth,
And balmy influence shed.
In veal OF woe her loving eye
Shall prove her hous seholds light;
To close it were to hush its joy,
And shed whitening blight.
And there, ali. sweetest, holicst thought
The mothers love is blest
By her the tender mind is taught,
And noblcst thoughts imprest.
She wields the power that makes the man,
The noble and the great;
She makes the influence, forms the plan,
Th1Ongb ham she rules the State
} womaml blest Of Heaven, be wise;
iod has ordained thee weaker, but more fair
Than GOd-like man, but He has given thee minC
)f equal strength, and quicker to discern
The good from i'll, and therefore made thee mOttt
If all mankind, and made thee teacher too;
md what thou dost impress on the young mind
Before it meets the hardening influence
)f the outer world, that shall it mature
N manhood, and shall practise, wise or i'll,
Therefore beware! ask not to share with man
His harder tolls, but be content to be
His loving spouse, his idol, and his friend,
Nor dare neglect the task by Heaven imposed.

Striving to learn from each form met
Something of life, as they glided along,
Midst the bustling noise and the busy thrOng.
There were faces 18th smiles as pure and brig
AS Summers day, or starlit night,
While others so wan, so pale with care,
You felt as You gaZed, there were heart-acl
there.
On, on, went, with a busy thought,
Thinking what changes time had wrought,
Till minstrel boy, with dark brown eyes,
Tuned his harp meath the evening skies.
! stopped and listened while he sang,
And through my heart the music rang,
Twas Dixie, and the crowd so gay,
Seemed changed 10 manly forms in gray.
Again I saw the flag on high,
Heard joyous shouts ring through the sky,
The song was done, l turned away,
With yearning love for the minstrels lay.
Dear song of the South, how oft it seems
To steal DER our lives, like pleasant dreams,
l: gladdens the heart, it lightens the woe,
It's silvery link to long ago.
