Eay" Several choice droves of mules
were in town during the past week,
among which was one owned by Mr.. B.
+. zoe, of Greenwood. A good team
was purchased by our enterprising young
friends, Mcssrs. McDonold 4 Haddon.
A drove of Mexican Mustang ponies,
owned by Mr.. Susong, Of Tennessee,
have been in the market, and, being
something of novelty, found eager
purchasers &C prices ranging from $40 to
S75. The breaking of the ponies fur
nished much amusement to our citizens.

SOUTH CAROLINA WINEs.-A corrcs--
pondent of the Charleston Nc,vS gives
the following sketch of a South Carolina
Vineyard and Wine-press.
about eight miles from Marion on
the line of the Wilmington, Columbia
and Augusta Railroad is Mullins Depot,
worthy of note rs the location Of an en-
terprisc not often met with in South
Carolina. This is vineyard and wine
press, owned by Dr.. II. Nampill, a native
of Poland, but for number of years
resident of this State. The doctor has
sixty acres of land under cultivation,
planted in vines. His wine cellar is q
long, low brick building, the floor of
which is four feet below the surface of
the earth. This building is one hundred
and sixty feet long by forty wide. 1t
| has no windows, but is furnished with
light and air by false roof over the
junction of the roof proper, extending
the entire length. Within these walls is
sight we'll calculated to make the heart
of man who loves the good things Of
this world leap within him. Ranged in
long rows lying OH their sides, with lead
colored bodies and red heads, are host
of immense hogsheads, labeled respect
lively, sherry, Madeira, concord, flowers,
port, catawba, scuppcrnonG. The doctor
pulls Il key out of his pocket, and as he
turns, first one cock and then another,
you begin to feel very much rs if yon
have reached the "happy land The
cellar contains ut present siN Thousand
gallons of wine. The doctols' vineyard
is now yielding three thousand gallons
per annum, although only q small pnr-
ton is old enough to bear fruit. When
the whole of it becomes productive 1t
will yield about lG0,U0D gallons yearly.
The doctor has made good move in ap-
pointing the courteous firm of DR.. ID. ,.
Price l. Co., Marion, :. G., agents for
the sale of his wines. 1t is to be hoped
that DR.. Vampill's example will, before
long, be largely followed in every section
of the State"
The climate of Abbeville seems to be
well suited to the cultivation of the
grape, and ut one time very great inte-
rast was manifested in the village. and
county on the subject. DR.. Togno, a
former resident of our town, was NOV
ing spirit in the matter, and q choice
vineyard was planted, and here very ex-
cellent wine was made by him and the
late John II. Wilson, Esq, and more re-
Gently by the present proprietor, Mr. r.
f. Bowie, and his very excellent mother,
Mrs. n. A. Bowie. Extensive vineyards
were also planted by our esteemed fel:
low ,citizen, John "A. Calhoun, Esq,
and others. though we believe they have
not given much attention to winc-mak-
ing. One of the most successful cultiva-
tors of the grape in Abbeville, is our
friend Dr.. W. l.. Anderson, of Green
wood, whose wines scarcely ever fail to
bear off the premium at our Fairs, and
to whose merits we can bear testimony.

The celebrated fight between
Adam Poe and the Shawnee chief
Black Feather, has been spoke of in
the histories of early Kentucky, but
l believe the particulars of the COM
bat have never been given to the
public.
The fight was remarkable, not only
on account of the well known PROV
ess of the parties engaged, but with
the exceeding stubbornness with
which it was conducted, and the
many phases it assumed before it
ended.
They literally fought on the earth,
in the air, and under the water.
Adam Poe, one of the first settlers
of Kentucky, had often expressed a
desire to meet the Shawnee chief in a
hand-to hand combat, and these
boastings having reached the ears of
Black Feather, he declared his inten-
ton of seeking out the daring white
man.
This for two seasons he actually
did, but circumstances combined to
keep them apart for a time. Finally,
however, the opportunity came.
Adam Poe and his brother had
been out hunting, and were return.
ing, toward sundown, bearing buck
on q pole between them.

Porthoominr Naval Hngagament.

Forthcoming Naval Engagement.
1t is probable that this spring will
witness a terrible naval engagement
fought off the British coast. The
conflict will be no sham agar; it will
be an earnest pounding with the
monstrous artillery of modern times,
hurting those Titan bolts of five
hundred-weight apiece which are to
be the pleasant medium" of future
sea-fghts. But the peculiarity
about this tremendous battle is that
there will be no enemy; the action,
for all the laundering discharges
and frightful noise of war, will re-
'semble those friendly suits in our
courts where there is q difference of
opinion, and people go to q kind of
amiable loggerheads to get the opin-
ion of the judges. In a word, the
British iron-clad HOtspur is inteud-
ed to attack the British iron. clad
Glatton, in order to test the real
strength ofrevolving turrets, the ad-
vantages and disadvantages of the
system under fire, with other points,
which can be proved only by actual
experiment. 1t is a pity that the
Glatton cannot return the Hotspur's
missive, as that would also test the
fixed turret and steam gan-carriage
of the assailant. But there must be
a crew on board to effect this; and,
perhaps the British Admiralty hard
ly sees its way to such q thorough
programme. One reflects pensively
upon Don Quixiote' 8 famous expert
lment with his sword proof helmet,
to make which took so long-snd
then, alasl his Toledo Glove through
It at the first stroke.

The Success Of the Great Eastern

Although commercially and fnan.
cially failure such as would proba-
bly, have dismantled her long AGO,
the mammoth Steamship Great
Eastern proved to be just in time for
the calls Of science which has rem
dered her invaluable in an unlocked
for capacity. Since 1866 she has
been exclusively devoted to sub
marine telegraphic purposes, and
during that time has laid, in various
parts of the world, 10000 miles of
deep sea electric cable-sll of which
is now in good working order. But
for her the Atlantic cable might not
have been laid. This vessel was
the only one capable of affording ac-
commodations necessary for slowing
thousands Of miles of heavy ca
BILE, and, above all, affording the
eVenness or steadiness requisite for
paying'it out without difficulty or
disaster. Since laying the Atlantic
cable she has laid down others in all
parts of the world. The British
Australian, China Submarine, Brit
ish India, and British Indian Exten-
sion are only a few of them. She is
now chartered to lay fourth trans
Atlantic cable, and is only awaiting
It's completion to start-lying now
at Sheerness. The cable is to be
manufactured by and laid down un-
der the auspices of the Telegraph
Construction Company of England.
She is expected in New York Bay in
August.

NoRoDY's DARLING.

Little and pallid, poor and shy,
With dOwncast look in her soft gray eye,
No scornful toss of queenly head,
But dropping bend of the neck instead!
No ringing laugh and no dancing feet,
No subi'7 wiles and abandon sweet,
No costly jewels, and no garments fine
She is NObody's Darling-but minel
NJ "Doly Warden" coquettish airs; [stairs;
No bigh-heeled boots to throw her down.
No yachting jacket and nautical style,
With sailors hat that she calls her "tiIe."
But LADY" is stamped on her quiet brow;
And she crept in my heart can't tell how.
Not made to dazzle, not born to shine
NobOdy's-NObOdy's Darling-but minel
No sauoy, ravishing, girlish grace,
But a settled calm on the sweet, pale face;
No sparkling chatter and repartee;
Very silent and still is she.
White and still is my pearl of pearls,
Yet to me she seemeth the queen of girls;
Why I love her 1 can't define, Tmine
For she's Nobody's-Nobody's Darling but
We're riches hers, or beauty rare,
She would lose her charm, become less fair;
Were rings to shine Oh those fingers small,
They could not add to their grace at all.
She would learn to smile and to speak by rule
In the foolish book of Dame Fashions School
And the world to spoil her would soon combine
NoiO she's Nobodya Darling g-but minel

Mr.. Spurgeon is of the opinion
that when people, particularly
preachers, have nothing importantto
say, they take long time about it,
but when they have something worth
telling "out with it at once" 1t
was DR.. Chalmers, who, on being
asked how long it took to maks a ser
mon, replied: THAT depends upon
how long you want it. Ifyour ser
mon is to be half an hour long, 1t
will take you three days. If it is to
be three-Guarters of an hour, it may
take you two days, or perhaps only
one; but if you are going to preach
for an hour, why there is not much
occasion to think great deal shout
