Crying for something hns;

And that Is why 1 ~grieVe-

And all 1 ever bad from you

And / wouldn't have cared tonight, Charley,
How poor the gin or small,
III you had only brought me something TO show
That you thought oil me at all.
The merest trine OF any kind,
That could keep or wear;
A nimsy tie Of lace for my neck,
Or a ribbon for my hair;
A pretty story OF lovers true,
Or a book Of pleasant rhyme;
Ahower, or a holly branch, 10 mark
The blessed Christmas time.
But TO be forgotten, Charley,
It's that that brings the tear;
And Just to think that | have been

FRE.-We are informed that the dwelling house
Of MIR. P P. Beacham, at Reidville, was totally de-
stroyed by fire on Sunday night, the 18th instant
The rapid spread Of the flames prevented the re-
moval Of any Of the furniture except two or three
beds. The sleeping family had only time to save
themselves from the devourng element. The
cause of the fire is not known. We truly regret 10
chronicle this misfortune to our friend. The loss
is heavy.-Caro!ina Spartan.
We continue to hear discouraging accounts
about the crops. Too much rain is the universal
cry, an exuberant growth Of grass, and certain
destruction to rice Of late planting, with, in some
cases, probable loss Of the plant in the more i'd
vanced stages. From what we can learn, the
greatest damage has been felt in the Pee Dee
country, and in some portions Of the Waccamaw.
The Black River, Sampit, and Santee planters are
not 30 much injured as was at first supposed, as
We infer from conversations with gentlemen rom
those sections, although none speak very en-; en-;
continue too full for the drainage Of lands and are
kept 80 by the prevalence Of Eastery winds, which
keep up the tides, and prevent the rivers from
attaining their former level. Very little ID expect
ed fro the corn crop, as the most attering pros
royed.-Georgeic,on Times.
hrPRovEMENTs.-We are pleased to notice that
our Railroad Fathers, who we are proud to say, go
in for improvement convenience and accommoda-
ton, have removed the old Ticket Office, and plac-
ed in it's stead at the father end OF the she'd neat
and handsome building. much larger than the
old one and 30 arranged as to be used as Tele-
graph Office also.-Florence Gazette.
We learn that on Monday last while some SOL
ders were on their way to their quarters, from the
Darlington Depot one Of them very carelessly dis
charged IN army musket in the direction OF
house occupied BY Randolph Hart, and which re-
suited in the death OF one Of his children who hap
pened to be standing in the yard. The distance
was over three hundred yards from where the gun
was fred, yet the ball passed entirely through the
body and lodged in the arm.

DR.. LiYintnnoa Fate.

To Tue Editor of the London Times:
m:-After the full consideration by the Royal
Geographical Society Of the statement Of the
Johana man, Moosa, on which alone the belief in
the death of Livingstone rests, and after the let
ters which have addressed to You, pointing out
that this Moosa had already given two accounts OF
the event, materially differing from each other,
could not have believed that another version of
the narrative of this MIN would reach us by the
circuitous route Of India, and appear in the Times
of this day, headed death OF DR.. Livingstone.
In this, the third version OF his own story, Moosa
is, for the first time, brought forward as COM
Livingstone, while in his statement to the Consul
at Zanzibar he was hidden behind tree at some
distance, and fed to his companions when he saw
the fatal blow struck.
dition OF Livingstone was told by Moosa at Zanzi-
bar that Livingstone was absent on hunting
party when the attack Of the natives with bows
and arrows occurred, and that when he came to
the spot he found Livingstone dead. Fully aware
of the established character OF Moosa for mem
dacity, as proved when he formerly served under
Livingstone, VIC, who have really sifted the mat
ter, induced her,Majesty's Government to take the
only step by which the fate OF Livingstone could
be really ascertained. Your readers know that the
boat expedition to the Zambes which is to ascend
the Shire and Lake Nyassa to near the spot where
Livingstone is said to have been killed, left Eng
land on the 11th OF june, and you were also in
formed that according to estimate We expect to
nave QeQnlte eVlueuCe tnaS Dy VI pSioao Su
of the fsehood or truth Of the report OF this Jo-
We who see many reasons for disbeleving
Moosa, which wllnot now repeat cling TO the hope
that, although he may have met with difficulty
in the opposition Of The marauding Zulu .Caffres
Livingstone may have forced his way through
them while Moosa and his Johanna men fled. Now,
if the search party should ascertain that he went
on from the supposed fatal spot our great anxiety
respecting him will have ceased. For, knowing
that he formerly crossed and recrossed Africa at
tended by few Makololo only, we can have no
fear that, with his present band Of negroes, he
NAV have reached Lake Tsnganyika, and be now
determining the great problem Of the true waters'
head Of Southern Africa.

GERR1T SMITH AND THE CoNsTITUTIoN-Hon.
Gerrlt Smith has issued circular In which nc
takes issue with Chief-Justice Chase, OF the
Supreme Court upon questions OF constitutional
under authority of the Constitution Of the United
States, but claims, on the contrary, that it was
carried on by Congress in accordance with the
laws Of war, and that the van1uished party is not
Smith regards the selection Of leaders for punish
ment under tho charge of treason as 'better
suited to feudal times than our own, and to o
despot-rulsd country than to our own." He says,
while pleading for more lenient treatment OF the
South as the snrest road to peace:

war has suffered enoughl bow disheartening to

and liberal America to justify themselves in hold

ties Of traitors
ington and Franklin been hung for treason at the
close of the civil war, this opinion OF the Chief
Justice would cover and justify the heartrending
and heayen-appalling deed.
The author of the circular bases his argument
not on the plea of justice, but he fears that per-
slstence IN the rigorous poncy maIheu out NY
ChiefJustice Chase will entail the dissolution OF
the Republican party. He says:
I will venture prediction. The Democratic
party behaved badly in the war, and went down.
If now, when there should be peace-that blood
right-minded Of all the land long for-the Re.
publican party shall also behave badly. then will
It also go down. 1t will behave badly if it shall
stand in the way OF this peace. It will behave
badly very badly, II it shall be in favor Of adding
to the horrors Of this war, for which the North is
quite as wickedly responsible as the South, the
penalties OF treason. Our type Of civilization is,
indeed still sadly low. 1t is, nevertheless, not 30
low as to leave It possible for party to prosper,
whose policy shall be looked upon to be the policy
The main body Of the Radicals has made such
rapid progress in the last few years that Mr.. Smith
is left far in the rear. -

CoTTos PRospEcTs.-A correspondent OF the
Louisville Journal writes from New Orleans, after
making trip down the Mississippi, as follows:
In coming down the river made it my special
business to obtain information in reference to the
crops and the freedmen, as well as the situation
generally, and the result is moro favorable THAI
had anticipated The corn crop was everywhere
represented as virtually secured and to be magnl-
ficent. There is single field OF this valuable
cereal in Bolivar county Miss, Of Blk thousand
acres. Cotton was looking WELL. but in some To-
calities the grass growing, and the rains since
must have made it worse. The cotton crop depends
of course upon the part of the season yet future.
1t is admitted on all hands that, should the wealth
that Of 1860, will be made, which at present or
prices, likely to rule, will bring as much as whole
crop did before the war. The hopes OF the South
ern people arc suspended, 30 to speak, upon falr
cotton crop. AS the prospect for this grows bright
or gloomy, 30 will the hearts of the tillers OF the
soil swell with eyultation or sink into something
akin to despair. On some plantations that foe to
the CROP the worm, has appeared, and his ravages
are dreaded. The worm fourlshes the most Vlgor-
ously in cold wet seasons.
As we took in and landed passengers at nearly
every stopping place, had good opportunities to
converse with different classes of persons from the
INTERIOR and almost without exception found them
cheerful and hopeful-more 30 than had ex2ect-
ed Little interest in politics seemed to be taken.
The subject, in fact, was rarely introduced unless
did it myself. To the question, how do the freed
men work the answer generally was that they
were doing well-much better than last year. On
the plantations of the Messrs. Hampton, Wade and
Christopher, in Mississippi, the freedmen have
half the crop, the employers furnishing the sup
plies at slight advance upon the original cost.
This appears to be the rule generally adopted.
