The daily phoenix. [volume] (Columbia, S.C.) 1865-1878, 1872-06-06

EA~Ma By THE OARD.-A man from q
back County determined to spend few
weeks in New York, for the purpose of
seeing all tho sights; and in order to
strike his acquaintances at home with a
proper idea of the greatness OF his visit,
he took lodgings at the Astor House.
When he was ushered into dinner the
irst day, he was surprised at the number
OF people who sat down, as we'll as the
vastness Of the dining.room. He was
equally surprised to see that each man
had printed account Of his dinner be-
fore him, and that each one, as he
thought, ate according to the directions.
He was quite hungry-as we'll he might
be. after waiting three hours over his
time-so he attacked the head of the bill
with vigor, and ate down as fast as he
could, but soon came to a stand. Just
then the gentleman on his right request
ed the waiter to bring him some oyster
pie; which he heard, and instantly re-
ferred to his list to see where it was.
"Whatr' exclaimed he with astonish-
ment. turning :o his neighbour, ''are you
oil the way down there? Why, I have
only got to roast beef, and feel already
as If should burst!'

SOUTHERN OATs.-We mentioned q
lew days since the fine specimen of oats
raised on the plantation OF Mr.. Craw-
ford. near this city. These were for
warded to Washington, and the Chroni-
Gle, of that city, notices them in tho fol-
lowing manner:
'Col. A. 8. Wallace has shown us a
specimen of oats, now being out near
Columbia, 8. @. The stalks are firm
and stout, the heads fully seven inches
long, and the berry as plump and hard
rs any we have ever seen. These speci-
mems are full refutation of the state
ment OF those who are interested in
building up the West, that grain cannot
be successfully grown in the South. In
ali except the coast belt. proper care and
cultivation will insure good Crops
