ALL ABOUT THE STATE.
The Crops in Greenville.


The Enterprise says that the farmers on
Monday last reported things quiet at their respec-
tive homes. The crops, they say, are some better
than anticipated, yet are very light. The prepa-
ration Of land for wheat has really commenced;
we hope great deal will be put down. thorough
cultivation OF soil and the application OF good
manures, domestic and commercial, should en-
gaze the attention Of all.
The Knife.
The Darlington Democrat says: "Since our last
issue we have two more reports OF the use OF the
Knife by colored people. In one case Mr.. Richard
p. Blackman q peaceable, quiet and unonending
Young man, was the victim. He was severely cut
In the abdomen by one Isaiah Davis, colored. AT
one time his wound was considered mortal, and
he was so informed. 1t gives US pleasure to an
nounce that it is now thought he will recover. In
the other case both parties were colored; one was
cut in the arm, but not seriously hurt. II Is time
this thing was stopped; and the respectable color
cd people join In this opinion"

Farewell, farewell, how good 1t is to dieP

And what he was, and what he might have been,
Yea, and should be, perchance, SO clear were

Alone for she and ruth had left him there;
Alone. because the ending Of the strife

Alone for all those years with pleasure rue
Should be a tale mid Helen's coming LIE,
And she and all the world should go It's ways,
Midst other troubles other happy days.
And vet how was it with him ? AS II death
stroye vet with struggling life and love in vain,
With eyes grown deadly bright and rafting
breath,
He raised himself, while wide his blood did stain
The linen fair and seized the horn again;
And blew thereon a wild and shattering blast
Ere from his hand afar the thing he cast.
Then, as man who in falling fight
For a last onset gathers suddenly
: AN soul and strength, he faced the summer ngnt,
And from his lips broke forth mighty cry
OF "Helen, Helen, Helen l"-yet the sky
Changed not above his cast-back golden head,
And merry was the world, though he was dead.
