TruIy DiSsreSsiss. Affair.

The remains Of little Erna, daughter Of
Captain j. &. and Mrs. Aurelia Meem, OF
Mount Airy, whose death we announced
Saturday morning, we've brought TO this
city Sunday morning, accompanied by the
Rev. Mr.. Mason and Major S. p. Hasey.
They were taken 10 the residence OF Mrs.
Colonel Hal>ey, where The funeral service
was read by Mr.. Mason, and the body was
then conveyed 10 Spring Hill Cemetery and
inferred in the family burying-ground.
This Is truly a sad calamity, and one we'll
calculated to call forth earnest sympathy.
The particulars are these: Mrs. Meem
started on drive in her phaeton to Rude's
Hill, the residence Of Mr.. William Peachy.
In crossing the creek at the foot OF the bill,
the ford being rough, Mrs. Meem placed her
arms around the two children to hold them
in, and the reins fell from her hold.
The horse (Which was DIR. Mems old
"Dnstcr," well known in this city,. after
he had crossed the creek, finding himself
loose and being annoyed by the flies, started
in a ,rot; and Mrs. Meem, becoming alarmed,
liited the little girl out, and then jumped
out herself with the other child in her arms.
She fell aud was considerably burt, rs was
also the child. The little girl, Erna, got up
and ran to her and asked, !" Ma, are you hurt! .
Let us so back home" Mrs. Meem started
back, carrying the baby in her arms. Soon
she noticed that Erna was growing deathlY
paic; and, laying the child down, took her

WASHINGTON, July 1G.-The returns to
the Department OF Agriculture indicate that
of the high condition OF cotton reported III
June 80 per cent. has hcen maintained, the
figures indicating its condition, is compared
with June, being as follows: North Caro-
lima, S1-a loss of 20; South Carolina, 10l--
a gain OF /; Georgia, 105-a gain OF 5: Flo
rida, 100-llnchanged; Alabama, 1O2-a loss
OF ,: Mississippi, 9S-a loss OF J; Louisiana,
95-a loss of s; Texas, 1865 gain OF J;
Arkansas, Ola loss OF =; Iennesse, 3S-
unchanged.
Reports have been received from 304
counties OF the cotton belt, OF which IS re-
port 100, lis above, and 118 below. Com
plants OF excessive rains and OF depressed
Temperatures, and especially Of cool nights,
come from different sections Of the cotton
belt, but during the closing days OF June
there was general Improvement in the
conditions OF the growth, and the depreSs-
ing influences fingered longest in North
Carolina. Further down the coast there
was decided improvement in the pros
poets. South Carolina and Georgia re-
ported q higher condition than in June,
while Florida held her own. Along the Gulf
coast westward the depressing Influence
was felt in all the States excepting Texas.
In several counties there the abandonment
OF planted acreage is reported. In Texas,
however, in spite OF all drawbacks, there
is an improvement. In Arkansas there is 4
marked decline. Tennessee maintains the
June standard. The early development and
rapid growth OF the crop in its preliminary
stages is Il matter OF general remark. In
nearly I'LL parts OF the cotton belt it is in adj
vance OF last year. In some cases the bloom
is three weeks earlier than last year.
Insect injuries scarcely deserve mention.
In Pamlico, North Carolina, unnamed in
sectS, probably the cut-WOrms, are reported !;
in June they were troublesome. Floyd,
Georgia, complains of grasshoppers. Cater
pillars have appeared in Matagorda, Texas,
and rumored in one or two other counties.
Labor is spoken OF in several counties as
more accessible and reliable now than for
merly.

CULpEPEE. July II, 1878.
Our court-day (to-day) has been thus far
the hottest Of the season; thermometer 81
in the shade. The attendance at court was
rather small one. and little or no business
was done, either At court OF on the street.
Our congressional district, however, was
pretty fairly represented by those who
would rcpl cScnt u>-McSSrS. Hunton, Men
flee. Barbour-&lI here, and one was not,
Mr.. Ncaie, WHO was detained by sickness
in his family: hut those present gave our
people an insight IL to what had been done,
could he done, and would be done, ii they
would only be allowed to do it; but nothing
new was developed, and the speeches fell
rather tame on the ..SovcreI@n ears rs
they were much after the Golden patterns
save that Mr.. Barbour, being an Indepcn-
dent, felt privileged to take rather broader
ground than those hat would be regulars ;
but as yet little Of no interest is manifested
IN the election.
We re. With few exceptions, through our
oat and hay harvest, which is considered 4
fair one OF each. and the recent rains and
srasonab!c weather has greatly improved
our corn; so that we now begin TO hope we
shall have reasonable crop OF all our sta
pies. and. ii tolerable price prevails, shall
begin TO recover from the depression
brought on us by the failure in our crops
for the last two Years. X.

not rally she waded ever the stream to lay
her In tbeshade ofstlia wsliows on the ether

on her that her little darling was dead; that
she had truly crossed over the river and
rested under tie shade Of the trees-the
river OF life, the trees of paradise.
Thus, like a flash, had this appalling dis
