From Cross KEYS,


Mr.. EDIroR.-Nothing of Importance has
transpired in or about Cross Keys since my last
communication. Farmers are very busy in their
crops now, and in fact every thing seems to be
wearing n business like air-evcn the doctors
and undertakers arc wearing q more cheerful
face.
The Primary Election subject is still being
agitated, but the more thinking portion Of our
Township see the defects of the proposed plan
and will insist on the old plan-that of nomi-
mating by Convention. believe after another
meeting of our club, when this thing can be
more fully explained and discussed, ,. that it will
be rs much opposed it was in favor Of
he change at our last meeting nm glad that
the member from our club to the County Execu
tive Committee advocated an3 voted for the old
plan. He is man upon whose acts and judg-
ment we may safely rely.
Our club is still on the increase we havs
| now about sixty-fvo members, and they arc
| still coming to tho 'front.'
We nre working for q large representation in
the July Convention, for think that that con.
vention indirectly determines whether our off.

To "Citizen."
If you had given US some reason other than
"the democrats of my township are for the
Primary election we might have thought ii
worth our time to mako some reply but you
have given us nothing to reply to. If you be.
lieve tho Primary system tho best for the people
give us your reasons and your plan. for conduct
ing the election. 1t may be that you can show
us our error in the matter. We are open to con-
viction. Why don't you get the minority to
draw up Circular in answer to the majority
1t is no fault of the majority that tho minority
does not answer their arguments.
You ore very liberal in your "pro rata share
of Offices" There will bo only eight County
officers to be selected, including the Legislature,
and you claim that the pro rata share is two for
"my Township" How do you propose to pro rate
the other six among the remaining nine Town
ships? That is just the kind Of pro rating the
primary election system will perform, we think,
and then there will be enough disappointed
aspirants" in the other Townships to give
strength to on independent ticket, in combina-
tion with the Mobley party, and it would be
elected. There's just where our charge of "sore-
heads &C., which seems to worry you SO much,
comes in. Bring out your arguments that the
Primary System is more just and equitable and
will prove more satisfactory to the people than
the Convention system, properly managed, and
we will give them full weight. What we earn
sstly want is harmony in the party and the will
and wishes Of o majority Of the democratic vo-
ters represented upon the democratic ticket.
You are not posted, friend Citizen, upon cleo
tion laws, if you think that il in necessary for
candidate to have g majority Of thevotes cast
to entitle him to the Office. II three candidates
run for an Office, the one that gets the highest
vote is elected, even IL he should only receive
one vote over q third offhe votes cast. For ex-
ample-there are 25O0 votes cast; A gets 1874 !,
gets 833 and c gets 833, and A is elected.
What we after now is 10 prevent such
result, by nominating candidates who will be
acceptable to and receive the votes of majority
of the people You have mixed up q nomina-
Ii OIL with an election. Tho question in dispute
is how shall we nominate, The law dictates how
we shall elect. "a

The storm Of hast sunday.

Inc storm OF hst sunday.
A violent storm Of rain and hail passed over
the western portion Of this county last Sunday.
Its greatest force was spent about nine miles
South west from here, taking q Northerly direc-
tion to the Spartanburg line. From the contra
dictory reports we have received il Is iupossi-
BILE for us to say whether it did any great amount
Of damage to tho crops or not. Parties from the
same neighssshoods. have given directly op-
posite accounts Of it. One says Il completely
ruined the standing wheat and oats, stripped the
leaves from tho cotton and destroyed the plant
entirely in some fields, while another tells us
that II did but little damage, and in two weeks
the crops will show no signs of storm having
struck them. All, however. agree that it was
severe storm, and the hail-s;ones in some places
we're as large round rs half dollar, but flat
In this immediate neighborhood but few know
that any hail had fallen, it was so light, while
the rain fell in showers and not uncommonly
heavy at any time.

How TO SECURE COOP JURoRs.-Judgc Mack.
ey has effected an important reform in the prep
aration of the jury lists for this county, which
will insure better class Of jurors than has
hitherto been our good fortune to obtain. Dur
ing the drawing Of additional jurors from the
box to fill vacancies, the Judge took occasion to
admonsh the jury commissioner that it is his
duty to know every person whose name is placed
in the jury box to be drawn rs juror, either
personally or by information from credible citi-
zcns, to the end that no person shall be drawn
to serve as juror except he be of sound judg-
NEXT and good moral character and not exempt
by law or physically disabled for the perform
ance of jury duty. Judge Maekey further sta
ted that in every case in which an incompetent
juror is drawn the jury commissioners will be
held liable to the county for per the diem and
mileage of such incompetent person. These re-
marks of Judge Mackey we prompted by the fact
that several instances occurred at this term OF
the court of persons being drawn who were over
age and exempt by law, while in one case gen
tlcman who is totally deaf was drawn as ju-
ror. AS o this last instance the Judge observed
that justice had been painted as blind, but that
it is necessary that her hearing should be ex-
cecdingly acute.--Neps and Courier.

INDIANS ON THE WAR PATH.-Chicago, June
l.-Under date of April 18th, Major General
Ures. commanding the seventh infantry at Fort
Benton, informs the military headquarters here
that the hostile Sioux, Arrapahoes, Cheyennes
and Other Indians assembled at the eastern cor
ner Of Cypress Mountains, known. as Sitting
Bats uAmp. contemplate an early invasion south
of the boundary line. Major General llges con-
siders the situation serious. Two thousand
warriors trusted by nobody in that region, full
ly armed and equipped defiant and ready for
fight, have caused him to move his forts to o new
place better fitted for defense. Sitting Bull recent
iymade rancorous harangue promising to return
to the United States when the grass grows and
make the soldiers work. A grand war dance
and mastering Of the various tribes followed
this speech.
The news from the Indian frontier, as repor-
ted at the War Department to-day, is that Gen.
Sheridan telegraphs there is much alarm Mt Ben
ton as to the situation and tho Intentions of Sit
ting Bull, who is thought to be ready to cross
the frontier and start on the war path. From
the upper Columbia news comes that the Nez
Pcrces, under Chief Moses. are anxious to be-
gin another war. The Pelouze Indians are in
the same frame Of mind, and are itching tor the
war path. The military and civil authorities
nre doing all they can to prevent an outbreak,
and ore making every preparation for the pro-
lection of the settlers.

Tho Storm at Goshen Hill.

Mr., EDITOR "A very destructive hail, wind
and rain storm occurred here last Sunday even
ing doing immense damage to crops and lands.
Fortunately the hail was bu: of few minutes
duration and fell somewhat scattering, bat it came
down in a hurry and of size never before seen
by the oldest inhabitant. Most Of the stones
were rs large as guinea eggs and ni':ny as big as
hon eggs, and of the most fantastic shapes and
form. Many of them had the appearance of
rock candy and as they fell the wind would
hurl them sometimes twenty yards.
The storm started about FIVE miles above here
and extended nearly n mile below this place,
doing the greatest damage, so far as I have
learned, to tho farms of W. w. Sims, G. o.
Hughey, G. Sparks, l.. F. and J. c, Hunter. /.
passed through several other farms, but little
damage is reported and it is to be hoped all of
them will gather full crops next fall.
What is very remarkable about the things is,
that three hours afterwards, the hardest rain
which perhaps ever fell here followed right ip
pleting the devastation, by destroying the crops
on the creeks, and washing the uplands.
1t is believed, The damage to the cotton is
about one-third Of the crop in the path of the
hail storm, which, perhaps, was about three
fourths of q mile in width; and while the corn
blades are literally torn inte shreds, it is
thought it will sustain but little damage as tho
most Of the corn is young. Watermelons will,
however, command o good price, and garden
sass will be eaten with better relish when il
grows out afresh.
1t is rather bad on the sufferers but. blessed ar.
the farmers for they don't expect much, no how
and bear their misfortune, with equanimity, il
not with pious resignation. T.. F. II.
