The Crops,

From q valued correspondent we
have been able to learn a good deal of
the condition of the crops in parts of
both North Carolina and South
Carolina.
He had recently visited the follow
ing counties in North Carolina: Co
lumbus, Mecklenburg, Union, CASTOR,
Lincoln, Cleaveland, Iredell, Catawba,
Burke, Rowan. Davidson, Randolph
and Guilford. In all these counties
the crops were good. Wheat was
being cut in :be upper counties,
although there was too much wet
weather for a good harvest.
He had likewise visited the follow =
ing counties in South Carolina: Ma
non. Darlington, Sumter, Richland
York and Fairfield. The crops in all
these counties were very fine, and
although much rain had fallen during
the past week, it is thought that the
crops were not injured.

THE MOUNT PLEASANT TROUBLE.
Five NJ On Hung by the Regulators
"A GhastIy Sight.

NEW ORLEANS, June ~.
The latest Intelligence concerning
the troubles in East Baton Rouge was
brought by the steamboat Bertha,
which arrived this morning. The boat
passed Port Hudson at IL a. m. yes
terday, and took on board at that point
the sheriff of Baton Rouge and his
posse, having in charge Fourteen NJ =
groes captured at Mount Pleasant,
who were taken to Baton Rouge for
safe keeping. There was an expression
of reprobation as to the conduct of the
regulators. While the boat was pass
ing point adjacent to Mount Pleas
ant, a ghastly sight was revealed to
the passengers and crew.
From the hurricane deck gooi
try to the distance of perhaps . mile
or more, owing TO the gradual ascent
of the surface from the river bank
upon slight eminence. In full view
of the boat a W de gate was seen, and
fSom the croes beam at the top, the
bodies of five men were suspended.
This spectacle was observed by nearly
every one on the steamboat, but no cx-
planatiOn was obtained.
No report of the disturbances has
yet been made to the acting governor
by the sheriff. He has received infor-
nation that after the prisone s were in
the hands of the sheriff, that one of
tnem expressed his satisfaction of
being under guard rs it wouid protect
him from the regulators.

SPECIAL Telegram to the Enquirer.
WASHINGTON, June 20.
It is currently reported in political
circles that United States Senator
Morrill, of Maine has been offered the
Secretaryship of the Treasury. He
would certainly refuse it, but his term
expires on the Sd Of March next, and
up to late period it was understood
that ne would be pushed aside to
make room for Blaine, if the latter
should fail to be nomin ated for Presi-
dent. It Is therefore deemed doubtful
whether Morrill, will accept or not. If
he should decline, it is supposed that
the place will be given to Don Games
ron or Zack Chandler, either of whom
would accept. 1t is curious illus
tratiOn of Grants ways, that the most
prominent men in the Republican
party say this evening they have no
q etinite idea of what he means to do
about it.
The impeachment is now expected
to go on in July, neither party being
willing to take the responsibility of a
pOstpCnement. 1t now looks as if
there would be some compromise be-
tween the Senate and House on the
appropriation bills, thereby prevent
ing any serious embarrassment to Gov
ernment
Mr.. Kerr is somewhat better, and
expects to leave on Thursday for the
Rockbridge Alum springs.
The republican ratification meeting
last night was II tame affair. Their
managers are drending the nomination
of Hancock, aud object to putting up
military man for President.

The Floods.

Distressing reports reach this city
Of the extent of last week. rains, and
the damage doue by them to tn farm
ing interests. MIR. A. r Henderson
who was in the city yesterday, from
River BAnd Township. q 'ston county,
says there WAS never before such IL
flood III the Catawba. The river bot
tom, are overdowed. and shocks of
wheat can be seen floating down the
river. Is exceeds the freshets of 1910.
Tho corn and cotton are covered over
with water and mud " bile the oats and
wheat whicn have not yet been cut,
are prostrate on the ground. Every
thing iii the vicinity of the channel of
the river is submerged, and tAe bot
toms are vast sheets of water. The
plo we'd. has been swept clear away and
much of the vegetation with it.
From up the North Carolina Rail
road come the same accounts. A gen.
tleman just from Davidson county says
that not only are the crops well-nigh
ruined, but a number of telegraph
poles have been actually swept away
and carried beyond sight or hearing.
The water was high up on the abut
melk of the railroad bridges Sunday.
and the damage is incalculable in it's
extent. Farmers were engaged all day
Sunday in wading into the bottoms
and carrying out their wheat, and in
trying to replace the fences which
have been carried away. Charlotte

The Flood.

All the river plantations below Co
lumbia are under water. At the old
"Green Hill," now owned by Mr.. }.
@. Seegers, tie hands were compelled
to wade three or four miles to get dry
land. Mr.. w. G. Childs had 300 stacks
of hay to float down the river. The
adjacent places are in the same condi-
ton. Thousands of dollars have been
lost to the planters. The Congaree
and its tributaries are very high, and
Still rising. From OraDgeburg, we
learn that the Edisto river is very high
and rapidly rising. The swamp is full
of water. It has rained steadily since
Sunday, and is raining still. Along
the line of the Greenville and Colum-

The New York World disputes the
claim that Governor Hayes is man
of great strength, and cites the votes
given by Ohio at different periods in
support of its assertion. It says: "In
1865 the republican candidate for Gov
ernor of Ohio was elected by about
30. 900 majority. In 1867 Mr.. Hayes
was the republican candidate, and his
majority was reduced to 2,OS3. This
was very narrow margin for State
which had given fora number OF years
from 30, 600 to over 100, 900 republican
majority. In 1868 the republicans
carried Ohio by a majority of 40, GIT.
In 1869 Mr.. Hayes was again the re-
publican candidate for Governor and
his majority was reduced to $500. In
1875 he again carried the State by only
about 5000 majority with his opro
nents divided on the platform"
