CIT ISN'T ALL IN BRINGING UP.

.
1T isn't all in bringing upi
Let folks say what they will;
To silver scour pewter cup
1t will be pewter still.
Fen as of old wise Solomon,
Who said train up q child
If mistake not had son
Proved rattle Drained and wildl
"A man Of mark who fain would pass
For lord Of sea and land,
May have the training Of a son,
And bring him up full grand:
May give him all the wealth Of lore,
Ofcollege and of school,
But after all may make no more
Than just decent fool.
Another, raised by penury
Upon her bitter bread,
Whose road to knowledge is like that
The good to heaven may tread.
He's got spark of natures light,
He'll fan it into flame,
Till in its burning letters bright
The world may read his name.
''lf it We're all in bringing up
In counsel and restraint,
Such rascals had been honest men
I'd been myselfa saint
o! it isn't all in bringing up
Let folks say what they will
Neglect may dim silver cup
twill be silver still"

"IF the passage OF the bill would stop
discussion on the currency question ana
make people stop talking about what
kind OF money they were going to have
and 20 to work and earn it, it would do
good but do not think it would have
that effect"
The foregoing language, uttered by
Senator THURMAN during the debate OF
Thursday, embodies volume OF truth
that needs no further considerations. 1t
strikes the keynote OF every possible
real and permanent improvement IN
our present financial, Commercial! and
industrial condition. "Go to work and

. c,oomy Prospect for Crops-Ef-
,ac, Of she Drsught-Rayages OF the
p,,ato Bug~-N0 Pasture.

feet Of thc DfOukutD
po,aio Bug~-No Pasture.
NEAR CHARLESTON, June 10.
Editors OF the Register.
We have deferred giving a statement
as 10 our prospect for good crops until
now, hoping to give an account as en-
couraging as some OF your correspond
ents have given. But we have waited
in vain; the prospect darkeuiDg instead
OF Frightening each day. We will now
proceed to give them as they are.
Owing to the continued drought
there having been no rain with the ex-
ception Of two light thunder showers
since about the 25th of April, every-
thing is in dried up, parched condition
Fully one half OF the corn which has
been planted failed to come up, and
that which is up, more resembles gra.s
than corn. In many cases. whole
fields have been layed of and planted
over, only to fail TO come up the
second time. Corn which
was planted six weeks ego, 10
not more than five or six inches high,
and if does not rain soon this will, a
good deal of it, die; there not being
enough moisture In the ground to keep
it alive.
The greater part OF the farmers are
blowing their crops the fret time, some
being nearly done, some however, are
still planting and replantlng that which
did not come up.
Oats will not be half crop unless
there is wonderful change between
this and harvest. 1t now looks brown
aud scar as though it would not head
ct al without rain.
There will be an entire failure in
grass, there being scarcely good pas &.
lure, where hitherto there has been fine
meadows, and as to pasture, there just
aiu't bit.
A good crop of wheat is expected,
but as one OF your correspondents init
rnatee, the harvest is not over yet.
A trough there has been favorable
season, yet wheat is liable to
so many evils, but not &c
many of a dry season, it ID
difficult to tell when you have good
crop until it ls harvested. We can only
hope Tor the best, aud wait patiently
Tor the result.
The potato bugs are quite numerous
and playing havoc with the potato
crop in this vicinity. There seems to
be no remedy by which their depreda-
tious may be stopped. The most per-
SOUS are picking them off and killing
them. This seems to be the only REM
edv by which the crop can be saved.
A gentleman who is just from Cabell
county, informs us that there has not
been drop Of rain in that county for
about six weeks, the crops, II such q
thing be possible, looking worse than
IN this county.
4 lev dried up vegetables are max.
ing their appearance in our market, but
they being of a very inferior quality,
meet with but dull sale, it being impos
sibIe to obtain money for produce OF
any kind. 1t is all traded off to the
merchants Tor merchandise. More

WEST TOPsHAM. The religious
interest which commenced here a
few weeks ago continues to increase.
The meetings-three on the Sab
bath and three on different even
ings of the week-are fully attend.
ed and of deep interest. The con-
versions at first were principally
among the young, but now the
more aged are starting with them
on the christian journey. Sun
day, Nov. Is, eighteen were bap-
tized by immersion, and joined the
Free-will Baptist church. Some
fears were expressed that the Ordi-
nance might prove unfavorable to
the health of those going forward
and especially to the administrator,
Rev. A. q. Peaslee, who is very in
firm in health. The candidates all
claim that they suffered no incon
veuience from the cold. The adj
ministratOr, though pretty thor
Oughly chilled by standing near
half an hour in four feet of ice wa.
ter, without any protection but Or
binary clothing, by the prompt and
thorough application of hot lannels,
was at his post at half past six, to
give the right hand of fellowship
and administer the Lords Supper.
After these exercises social meet.
ing was held at which about fifty
persons took some part, and thus
closed the day.

| So long as the negroes voted
unanimously with the Republicans,
the native white Democrats had
every temptation to prevent their
use Of the suffrage, and this temp.
tation was unquestionably, at one
time yielded to. Now that it has
become possible to induce tho ne
gro to sometimes vote with the
Democrats, he will he treated very
differently. 1t may be political her
esy, but we confess that the divi-
sion of the negro vote is to us an
encouraging fact in the recent cleo.
tiOns. 1t is especially encouraging
when, as in South Carolina, the di.
vision was effected by an appeal to
the negroes to rebel against their
former leaders in order to secure
good government. When the ne.
gro gives his vote on that ground,
whether he is cheated or not, and
ceases to give it under control Of q
dread or hatred of his former mas.
ter, he has made a long advance in
the direction of becoming a useful
citizen.--N Y. Times.

WELLS RIVER. On Tuesday al

WELLS RIVER. On Tuesday af-
ternoon large party Of nearly for
ty gentlemen aud ladies come up
from Bradford to congratulate Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Clones on the 10th
anniversary of their marriage,
bringing many valuable presents,
and large supply of "good things"
Jones had business that day at
Marshield, and when he returned
in the evening was greatly surpris-
ed to sec his house thronged with
visitors, but Jones saw the point
and accepted the situation with fine
grace, and all hands sat down to an
excellent supper. The company be-
ing reinforced with about one hun
bred of the people Of Wells River,
repaired to the hall for social enjoy
meut. Among those from Bradford
we noticed j. johnson aud daugh-
ter, MIR. and Mrs. j. B. Woodward,
Mr.. and Mrs. Col. j. q. Stearns, and
Mrs. Andross, mother Of Col. d. K.
Andross, who, although eighty -four
years of age, knows how to enjoy
good time, and added much to the
interest of the occasion. The even
ing at the hall was enlivened by ex-
cellent instrumental music by Mr.
Scion Smith of Thetford, MIR. and
Mrs, Z. w. Smith, MIR. Holman, Mr..
E. Il. Hoyt, and Mr.. Robinson of
Wells River. The evening was ono
of rare pleasure, and before any one
was aware, the time for separation,
to accommodate those returning on
the train, had arrived. Mr.and Mrs
Jones have high esteem for
Bradford people, and from our &C.
Quaintance with them we think
Jones is right.
