Spring OPENING. The windows of
the dry goods stores are blossom ing
out in Spring colors. The sight is a
very distracting one to attenuated
pocket books. A good many goods,
however, are those of last season. Old
wine in new bottles. The importers.
as yet, are selecting sparingly. A few
days hence the case will be different.

FEARFUL Work IN EDGEFIELD.-
Late on Monday afternoon last, shortly
after the hands had delivered and stored
their days picking, the gin house of
John Rainsford, Esq.. at his Burt place,
was discovered to be on fire. 1t was
totally consumed, and with it, sixty bales
of cotton.
On the same evening, n few hours
later, however, the gin house Of Mr..
Charlie Mathis, living nile below the
Pine House, was also discovered to be
burning. 1t was destroyed, with sixteen
bales of cotton.
These plantations are about three miles
apart. Nothing is known as regards the
origin of the fires; but the striking
coincidence of two neigboriug gin houses
being burned on the same evening very
naturally suggests the torch Of the
ipcendiary
Would not our planters do we'll tn
consider the annexed paragraph, which
we clip from an exchange

now than ever, despite the dsorganiza-
tion and decentralization of labor aud the
heavy losses sustained by our farmers,
they are getting more comfortable each
fall, and have restarted on the road to
wealth despite the necessity Of person
al labor, and the poverty of the people,
and the utilitarinn spirit which fancied
it could see more profitable employment
for children than sending them to school,
the cause of education has advanced.
These are causes of high thanksgiving
now in the dreary Autumn, and "wiuter
of our discomfort" These are cheering
thoughts among the reveries of the sea-
son. Then reader, tits time to stop. In
dulge us in our Autumn chat. Perhaps
we have suggested some true thought of
life, prompted by the falling leaves.
Perhaps like the falling leaves, they will
only Autter and fall, aimless, and at
random. If so then at least we have Of
Tended no one.
Thus then we would visit at your
homes, and if we can, at times, convey
some great truth, or express some bright,
fresh suggestive thought; if we can aid
the holy cause of education and litera-
ture; and contribute some small part to
to the hands of sons SO worthy of her,
we will have an evergreen consciousness
of duty discharged whose leaves will not
wither and die.

A Conn PANIC Our WEsT-There
is excitement and down ward tendency"
i'll the grain market at Chicago. The
papers of that city furnish the following
particulars. The Chicago Journal says:
"Grain comes in more rapidly than
wanted for shipment, under our rcceut
pecuniary arrangements and there have
been few here who could command money
enough to buy to hold. Our weakness
has reacted on New York and sent that
market down, while Liverpool has caught
the same infection. Wall street gam
bling was the primary cause, but the
proximate cause arose in Chicago. There
was good deal of short trading to day,
many bcing anxious to sell and others
equal willing to buy, but with decided
preference to the buyers option, which
made buyer for the month worth great
deal more than seller do"
With reference to the condition of the
banks, under this uniavorablo condition
of things, the writer says:
"Tle strain on the banks of this city,
produced by the large amount of grain
which has accumulated here, has been
heavy The rnuic in New York de-
prived the grain and -four dealers of
New York city aud State of the facilities
for doing business because they could
not get accommodations to pay sight bills
drawn on them to pay for grain shipped
from here. There has been any quantity
of orders here to buy grain, to be paid
for by bills drawn at thirty days and it
is useless for the banks of this city, with
out all increase of capital, to attempt to
furnish funds for the whole of the trans
actions in grain from the hands of the
producer to the consumer in the eastern
and foreign markets"
AT Cincinnati, the Enquirer, says of
wheat:
"Advices from other points have been
of an unf.vorable character, and the
orders have generally been withdrawn.
The city milors, are, in most cases,
limiting their purchases to immediate
wants, as they have not much confidence
in prices, and the present rates for -four
afford them no profit The receipt of
wheat have not been large; and the sup
ply has exceeded the demand, and there
being no disposition to sell, concessions
were in some cases granted"
"Corn-prices are lower. The dis
tillers have been buying up pretty freely
ut interior points, and are not in the
market to any extent ut present, and the
lemand from the local dealers is not
equal to the receipts"

The Bondholdsr SITS in His Easy Chair


General Butler is after the bondhold-
ers, and proves they have not paid their
income tax. The Cincinnati Enquirer
states:
General Butler has shown that the
bondholders have not paid one tenth Of
the tax which, under the Federal assess
ment, they we're required to pay upon
the interest of their bonds. Considering
the extraordinary patriotism Of the bond
holders, We were strongly inclined to
doubt the accuracy OF the above state
ment
The charge is made by General Butler,
a gentleman whose loyalty cannot be
impugned aud with whom, in compsri-
son, the loyalty Of E. d. NJ, Of the Gin
,ciunati Gazette, is thrown far iuto the
background. He proves by facts and
figures that the bondholders have not
paid one-ten,h of the income tax to
which they are under the law subjected.
Who would Suppose that these pat
riotic gentlemen-who in the hour of the
Govstnments distress were willing to
lend it money at twenty per cent, with
exemption from taxation in addition
would eudeavor to deprive the Govern
ment Of the small consideration by way
OF taxation to which il was entitled
Inssmuch as the Government knows
the exact amount Of bonds out, it can
tell with accuracy what it ought 10 re-
ceive from the income tax upon them.
That it has not received one-;enth Of this
sum is most unfortunate. 1t shows that
the bondholdsr, after all, is not that par
agou Of virtue and honesty that We had
supposed. We are. therefore, cousidera-
bly, distressed, inssmuch as we had be
heved that the bondholders cared moth
ing for any such little consideration as
monetary value to himself, but only
looked 10 the general welfare Of the
whole community. 1t is, therefore, the
flaw in the diamond which had hitherto
not been percsived. What "loyalist"
could have thought that this pink Of per
lection would endcavor to defraud that
Government Of iis dues from which
he had derived ell his profits j
General Butler proposes to reach our
distinguished fellow-citizens who have
been avoiding the tax, and the only tax
imposed upon them BY the Federal Gov
ernnenf, in this manner; he would i'm
pose q tax Of ten per cent. upon the
coupons or interest Of every bond and
empower and direct the officers Of the
Treasury, wherever located, Who psy said
