THE WHARTON MYSTERY.
One suspie ion,cle Away.

From the Baltimore American, August l6.l
Professor Aiken, of Baltimore, yesterday
reported TO States Attorney Knott, Of Mary.
land, that he had completed his analysis Of
the stomach OF Mrs. Whartons son, Edward
Wharton, and that he had not found any evil
dence of the poison which she was suspected
of having administered to him. The exami-
nation Of bottle of brandy which Mrs. Whar.
ton had given friend also failed to show any
traces OF poison. Thus the charge against
Mrs. Wharton of poisoning her own son falls
to the ground for want of evidence. Mr.
Pinckney had anticipated the report of Pro-
fessor Aiken and previously Informed Mira.
Wharton's counsel OF the result of the analy-
sis, that 1t might be communicated to her. 1t
what would be the tenor Of the report.
This intelligence will doubtless be matter
of congratulation to the friends OF the accused,
but 1t dashes the hopes OF at least one New
York insurance company, who had cherished
the expectation of being able to recover sl0.0 900
paid to Mrs. Wharton at the time OF her sons
death. Whether there will be an investiga-
tion Of the charges against Mrs. Wharton Of
poisoning Mr.. Edward Wharton and his
daughter, remains to be seen. In justice
to the accused, the bodies should certainly
be examined. The result Of the analysis of
the remains Of her son will have telling
effect upon the sentiment OF the communi.
ty, though as matter of evidence 1t is only
negative in character. All traces of vegetable
poisons would long slnce have disappeared,
and a chemical analysis at this late day can
only show that no appreciable amount of me-
tallic poison remains in the body. Mrs whar-
toms health has steadily improved since her
removal 10 the tower of the Jail. She is still
weak. however, and seldom leaves her bed.
Her daughter is unremtting in her devotion
to her mother, and furnishes an example Of
filial affection as rare as it Is beautiful.

The common school fund of Oconee Coun-

five thousand five hundred dollars, made up
of the following items: Proportion of legisla.
tive appropriation of sl50,000, s24l2; from last
years appropriation, unexpended, $s009; poll
tax, $1,000; school tax, $1,000. This IS large
fund, ample, we think, for the present wants
of the County. But only $500 Of this sum has
reached the teachers. Why? Simply because
the State treasurer refuses to forward the re.
mainder. Is there no remedy for this state ol
affairs?

ACCIDENTAL SHOOTING
from the Camden Journal. !

On Thursday morning last, little son of Mr
Anderson, who lives about twenty miles from
town, was severely shot, under the following
CIRCUMSTANCES: His father had been down to
the swamp and had carried his gun along,
which, upon his return, he placed on table
out In his yard. He then went down to his
watermelon patch, and while there heard the
gun fire. Hearing his wife scream, he ran to
the house, and upon arriving there, found
that his eldest son had been playing with the
breech while the little fellow was examining
the muzzle of the gun. which had exploded
and shattered the first joint of the first finger
of the right hand, and also passed through the
flesh of his right arm above the elbow. 1t is
the opinion OF the physicians that he will re.
cover, and that no amputation, beyond taking
off one finger will be necessary.

THE CROPS ~ GREENr11LE.
A Glut of Peaches and Famine of APP
pies-The Wheat, Corn and Cotton
Crops.
[FRoM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENCE

GREENvILLE, 8. G., August l6.
The peach crop Of 1871 deserves special com.
ment and record. It is the largest ever known
In the up-country. Every tree everywhere,
under all circumstances, is full of fruit. The
branches are breaking with the weight of fruit
every hour, and you are startled night and day
with the reports. Thousands of bushels are
fed to hogs, after all human wants are sup.
piled, and tens and thousands Of bushels are
being distilled. The spring was so genial that
frost did not even thin out the bloom.
TIE APPLE CROP OF 1871,
on the other hand, deserves special comment
and record. It Is almost total failure. Here
and there in an orchard, a few trees have O
few apples; no trees loaded. and generally
they have none.
The conditions thus so favorable to the
peach, seem to have been adverse to the
apple.
The wheat crop is estimated at not more
than oue.fourth. little more than the seed
planted. and of inferior quality. This Is o
severe loss to the farmers, who ore generally
very poor. But the crops OF corn and cotton
were unsurpassed, and the disappointment
was borne with cheerfulness. Since then. the
drought of ten weeks reduced the prospect
from more than full to half crop of cotton
and corn, and as the drought still continues,
the question Is, what shall we do? And no one
can answer. The partial showers have done
some good, but not much.e
The taxes loom up; winter supplies, debts
for fertilizers, debts for necessaries to make
crop and for labor, all make the prospect
gloomy. Five millions would not indemnify
the loss by the drought to this State alone.
The people here all rejoice and are refresh.
ed by your success In the election in Charles
ton. 1t was truly, "Qui meruit Palnaam terat." T"
The day is breaking; this is the morning star.
