Correspondence Of the Yorkvilie Enquirer
LETTER FROM BLACK,S STATION.

BLACKS STATION, S. c., July 5.-We have
at this time exceedingly dry weather, and
garden and field crops are very much in need
of rain. Up to this time that portion of the
cotton crop that has been we'll worked does
not seem to have suffered much from drought.
Col. j. w. Mills, of California, and Mr.,
Jacob Hester, of Pennsylvania, both capital
lists, have recently spent several days in this
vicinity, prospecting for gold. They we're
favorably impressed with their discoveries,
and will soon, probably, extend their re.
searches in the vicinity of Yorkville. From
accounts he has received, Col. Mills is led to
believe there are valuable minerals in that
section. His experience as practical miner
is considerable, he having been in the bust
ness professionally for years in Mexico, Cali
fornia and Central America.
J. A. Deal, Esq, census enumerator for
Cherokee township, reports the number Of in.
habitants of the township to be 2,44l. Of
that number there are 85 between the ages Of
fifty and sixty; SO between the ages Of sixty
and seventy "a between the ages of seventy
and eighty; 19 between the ages of eighty
and ninety; and 3 between the ages of ninety
and one hundred; making 229 persons over
fifty years of age, and 2,212 under that age
there being comparatively few over fifty years
of age. A strange fact is that there are more
persons living between sixty and seventy
years of age than between fifty and sixty !;
and more females over fifty years than
males. One colored woman reports her age
at ninety-6ve and another at one hundred
years. A. Hardin, Esq, is the only white
person in the township that is over ninety.
His age is ninety.two. There are 9 males
and females over the age of eighty and
under ninety. Of those between the ages of
seventy and eighty, there are two more males
than females; but from fifty to seventy years
the females are in the majority.
Mr.. Deals work of taking the census of
this township is very neatly and correctly ex-
ecuted, and is supposed to be without an er-
ror. He used every effort to make it COM
plete and thorough.
Speaking of elderly persons, may be per-
mitted to relate the following in connection
with two of the "old inhabitants Mr..
Preston Harmon, Of this vicinity, who is
eighty-seven, employed Jacob Randall, who
is eli ghty-four years of age, to make him
coffin, which was completed few days ago.
Mr.. Harmon, went to his former home in
Cleveland county, N. c., and procured wal
nut tree that he planted with his own hands
fifty years ago, and had it sawed into lumber
for the purpose of making his coffin. In
taking the handles and other trimmings to
the shop he walked a distance of fifteen
miles in one day, which will give some idea
of his activity for one of his advanced age.
Major T. w. Woodward, of Fairfield
county, paid our town q visit few days ago.
1t is generally understood that he is on an
electioneering tour for Congress from this dis.
trict, his candidacy being subject to the NOM

from the fact that an extent of country forty
miles long and from four to ten miles wide
was protected by tho embankment. The levee
was built under the act Of 1871, which was
declared unconstitutional. 1t was afterward
taken possession of by the United States
court for the benefit of the holders of it's con-
struction bonds, and is still in the hands of
the court. By reason of this litigation, the
levee has not been repaired for years, which,
no doubt, accounts for the present break. 1t
is thought the damage will aggregate 81 ,OOO,-

the old colonial times. Among these are
many original ones from the famous Govern

of North Carolina. The cost of erecting this
building, as certified to by Governor Tryon,
