THE ARMY WonM IN MISSISSIPPI
A correspondent of the Memphis Af-
peul writing from Duran, Mississippi,
says that up till within very few
days the cotton crop in Central Mis-
sissippi never promised better. Since
that time the much dreaded army
worm has made its appearance, and is
making sad havoc among the bolls,
giving every indication that the
greater portion of the crop in that
vicinity would be ruined by it's rava'
ses. This information is not of
hearsay character, but it is from actu,
al observation. On the bottom lands
cotton is always later than that grow,'
or the uplands, and the consequence
is that the uplands cotton, being re-
markably we'll grown, is suffering to
the greatest extent. These facts bear
hard on tho suffering community, as
this is one of tho few good cotton
years since the war. The corn crop
in Central Mississippi is the finest
that has been seen for the pasttwenty
years.

Protection from Lightning.

In these days Of thundcr-stormss,
and constantly recurring casualties
from lightning, a statement of the
conclusions of late writer in Apple
tons Journal, as to the best mode OF
protection, may not be uninteresting
to our readers. Tho loss Of life by
lightning, is greater than that on our
worst managed railroads, yet very
efficient protection is afforded at least
in ships and houses 'by properly con-
stuctcd rods. The London monu-
ment two hundred feet high has new
er beon struck, whilst lower buildings
in The vicinity have been struck; and
this exemption is oying to the fact OF
being furnished with perfect conduc.
tors; and many examples of similar
exemptions arc furnished.
The great bulk Of scientific men
are unanimous in favor of lightning
rods ond the best mode of construc-
ting them, and accord for the most
part tho preference to the old rod
described by Franklin. The points
to be attended are these: 1st that the
rod be Of sufficient size; an iron rod,
onc-half inch square, or. a copper rod,
one inch wide, and one-tenth of an
inch thick-2nd, that the rod be car
ricd along the ridge and corners OF
tho gables, connected with the tin,
roof, cutters and water-spouts' and
not insulated, and Sd, that there is no
safety unless the rod be carried into
the ground below tho level Of the
neighboripg wells.
In a storm the safest place is in a
house With a good rod-the most
dangerous under tree; and the
middle of an open field is nearly
as bad. In house unfurnished with
rods, the most dangerous place is near
a fireplace or chimney, and where the
water-sponts descend.

SOLICITORsHIP.

The Republicans have made a
nomination for Solicitor Of the 9th
Circuit; and as there are several
candidates on the Conservative
side, it has been thought judicious
to harmonise if possible. With
this view it has been thought prop
er for Abbeville to send Delegates
to a Convention to be held at An
derson on the 18th inst, to agree,
if possible, upon the candidate to
be put in nomination on the Dem
cratic side. The following gentle.
men have been appointed to repre-
sent Abbcville: w. II. Parker, w.
A. Lee, G. NJ. Mattison, Berry Kay
and A. NJ. Aiken.

Visit Of Bishop Howe.

The Rt.' Rev. W. B. w. Aowe'
Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of
south Carolina, accompanied by the
,cv, A. H. Cornish, of Pcndleton,
| listed our town on Saturday last,
and held interesting religious servi-
ccs in Trinity Church, on Saturday
night, and again on Sunday morning
and Sunday night, in the presence Of
full congregations. Bishop Howe is
the successor of tho lamcnted Bishop
Davis, having been elected Assistant
Bishop in May, 1871, and upon the
death of his Senior, last winter, sue
eeeded to tho full prcrogativcs of the
office in This Diocese. Ho possesses
that rare combination Of qualities,
intellectual and moral, which cmi-
ncntly fit him for his high office.
On Saturday night, prayers were
said by Rev. Mr.. Cornish, tho lesson
read by Rev. Mr.. Miles, and the ser
mon prcacncd by tho Bishop, from
John l: 4s, "Bcfore that Philip called
thee, when thou vast under tho fig
tree, I saw thec;" presenting q stri-
king view of the Divine Omniscence
and of that feeling of awe and habit
of sclEdiscip'ine, which grow out Of a
proper conception of this attribute of
the Divine nature.
On Sunday morning, tho morning
prayers were said by Mr.. Miles; the
ante-communion by Mr.. Cornish, and
tho Bishop preached from Matthew
vi: 33, "Scck ye first the Kingdom OF
God, aud his righteousness" and the
sermon was az able and earnest plea
in behalf the claims of the spiritual
and eternal, over the feeting and
pcrishable. After the Sc, mon, the
rite Of Confirmation was administer
cd to five young ladies, and after
wards the Holy Communion was dis,
pensed.
At night after prayers by the at
tending ministers, the Bishop preach
ed from 2 Peter, ii: Is, upon the sin
of Baiaam "Who loved the wages of
unrighteousness," and made strong
protest against the insane thirst after
riches, which is the characteristic sin
of the day.
The Bishop is profound theolo-
gian, and to high natural ability has
added the fruits of scholarly research
and varied culture. Ills discourses
were listened to with great interest
by large congregations.

SALEDAY ITEMS. - There was q
smaller attendance than usual on last
saleday, but towards "thc shank of
the evening" especially, the crowd
made up in livcliness for it's lack of
numbers. The quality of tho Abbe-
vile liquors seemed to b, fully tested,
and abundantly proved. Nothing of
interest transpired. There were no
sales by the Sheriff. The Bcrnard
O'Conner lot, near the Court House,
was offered for sale, and was bid in
at s1050. The. owner values it at
$4,000.

BARBECUE AT WARRENToN. On
Saturday last, pleasant Barbecue
Dinner came off at Warrenton, at
which there was a full representation
from the surrounding country, and
also from our tow,.. The tables were
spread in the cool grove in front of
Capt. W. x. Brooks residence, and
here q bountiful ropast was served up,
at 12 o'clock. Nicely barbecued
meats, and choice vegetables, and
delicious cake made up the sumptuous
feast, to which tho company did am
pie justice. Dancing was the staple
amusement Of the young people, be-
fore and after dinner, and was kept
up late in the afternoon. The resi-
dence Of Mrs. Sarah Cheatham fur
nishcd ample accommodation for the
pastime. The day passed off pleas.

TEE B0l TIERS RATIFICATION MEET
ING IN COLUMBIA.

The Boilers from the regular
Republican Convention, held
meeting in Charleston on Frida
night of the past week, which de-
veloped, in full strength, the old
feud between the Bowenites and
the MaclSeyites. The former,
knowing the strength OF their op-
poncnts, sent for recruits from the
surrounding islands, and placed
them in front Of the speakers
stand to preserve order. The
Mackeyites were somewhat discon.
ccrted by this step, but managed tc
keep up.a running fire of Interrupt
tons. Speeches were made by
Tomlinson, Whipper, Corbin, Gail
lard, Sawyer, Hurley, and others
but in the midst Of much disorder
and confusion.
Senator Sawyer was forced te
bring his remarks to an abrup1
close after saying, ''that if a MAJ
can't speak in this assemblage, il
| is in vain that the manacles have
been stricken from your hands
You ought to hang your heads il
shame that you refuse to hear
man who has been laboring night
and day to give you the same privi
leges that other people enjoy. The
men who are interrupting this
meeting are slaves to one of the
most contemplate pimps and pan
derers to the Ring-a man who OBJ
tained, through M bounty, tic tic
money with which he is paying for
the whiskey he gives you now.
Talk about the Civil Rights Bill.
I tell you that two years more Of
plundering of the State Treasury
like what has been done last year,
and you colored people will have no
more use to talk about the Supple
mental Civil Rights Bill"
Tim Hurley's quick wit and ready
repartce obtained for him that hear
ing which none of the other speak
ers could get. At first he was in
terrupted by a shower of questions,
and one fellow, more loud-mouthed
than the rest, wanted to know how
about buying the Legislature.
"Shut up replied the facetious
Hurley, II don't want to buy you,
because there is some meat that
stinks so bad that even I don't want
to buy it." This shot told on the
rabbIe, and Tim was master of the
situation. He continued his speech
in comparative quiet, and made a
very effective one, too.
He was followed by other speak
ers, and after a great deal of ratify-
ing, the Boilers adjourned their
meeting.
