CoTToN-On a short jaunt into the
country last week We were panied to see
so little corn along the road, only here
and there, or few and very far between,
did the corn paintings show themselves,
but wherever they did, it was refreshing
to see the plant so vigorous and fine,
while on the other hard although there
was scarcely anything else but cotton
fields to be seen, in many cases to dis
cover the plant would have required the
use of a magnifying glass Of great power.
That cotton is looking bad is undeniable,
but from the vast quantity Of land plant
ed it may be calculated that if no further
back sets, or accidents occur, the crop
will be a fair average one. At first
glance it looks like the u hole Of creation
so far as Newberry is concerned is plant.

in some places, being devoted to it. Cot

Tas MURDER OF DR. JAS. r. PATE

TIE MURDER OF DR. JAS. T. PArsR.
scN.-We learn from the Savannah Ad
sertiser that among the true bills found
by the Grand Jury Of Chatham County,
OF Monday, was one against Mrs. Cath
crime B. Paterson, charging her with the
murder of her husband, DR., j. T. Pater-
son, the announcement of whose sudden
death at his own hands, in his room at
the Pavilion House, Savannah, on the
18th Of May, 1868, so startled our com
munity, as the facts connected with the
sffair seemed to be wrapped. in some
mystery. The day after his death oc-
ienrssd. his remains were conveyed to
,AsgsS,a. where be formerly resided, for
busial, bis wife accompanying them
The matter, although talked of for some
days, 5000 died ont, but was shortly af:
aerward revived by Mrs. Paterson's max.
ing application, through her attorney to
the courts, for control Of the property Of
deceased. which application, We believe,
ras refused at the request Of the credi-
tcrs Of the deceased, the estate being iu-
solvent. The facts connected With the
death Of DR.. Paterson were silently be-
ihg worked up by the brother of the de
ceased, who had the stomach cut ont
and examined and from the true bill
found against Mrs. Paterson by; the.
Grand Jury Of the Superior Court, would
seem TO leave no doubt but what the
jury had good evidence and sufficient
grounds for their action before bringing
IN bal Of murder against Mrs. Pater-
son. Dr. Paterson resided in Columbia
year or two, and carried on litho-
graphic establishment Mrs. Paterson,
we learn, is now in some of the Northern
cities, and will shortly be informed of the
action of the Court.-Phenix. e..

REvESuR STEAMER
An associated press dispatched from Fortress
Monroe, under date of Oct 2ist, says:-
Information has been received here that Com
modore W. IL. Levitt, chief inspector of oys-
tiers for this State, has got into trouble again IN
Tangier Sound with the oystermen He had
some difficulty In those waters last season. and,
determining TO guard against II this season, pro-
cured the services of some twenty soldiers under
competent officer TO assist him In enforcing the
law. They left Norfolk day or two since in the
steamers Tredegar and W. F. Taylor
On Friday last they endeavored TO overhaul the
schooner Anna Virginia, which was taking oys-
tiers in Tangier Sound contrary to law. She had
fair wind and started to scud before it. The
officer in command of the troops wanted to fire
q shot at her to make hsr come to, but the in
spector thought II was unnecessary. as the steam
cr was gaining. As the steamer contrasting the
troops was closing up on her, the captain of the
schooner, not caring to be caught in that man
uer, put his helm about and ran for the steamer,
struck her amidships and sunk her almost iu-
staDtly. He then put her before the wind again
and showed them " clean pair Of heels" while
the other steamer stopped to pick up the crew
| and troops. Fortunately there were none of them
injured, and they escaped with good ducking
and the loss of their baggage. The commodore
had better try the range OF his guns on the next
| one that tries to elude him.
