FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE DUEL

The recent hostile meeting, which was un-
fortunately fatal to one of the parties, between
Col. Shannon and Col. Cash, has created con-
siderable excitement in the State, and is the
subject of much comment by the press, not
only in South Carolina, but in other States.
This is due, probably, to the fact that there
have been few fatal duels in the United States
in recent years, and further to the advanced
age of Col. Shannon who fell in this one, and
also that there exists On the statue books of
South Carolina stringent laws for the punish
ment of those who engage in the practice.
In this case it remains to be seen whether or
not the law will remain dead letter.
Besides the account of the affair published
on the first page of this issue, we take the
following from letter of the 9th, written by
staff correspondent of the News and Courier,
who visited the scene of the hostile meeting
At II o'clock last night, I called on Mr..
G. j. McCown, one of Col. Cash's friends in
the affair on Monday, at his residence ten
miles distant from Darlington Court House,
and secured the following statement of Whist
he witnessed on the duelling ground. Mr..
McCown said: I was off at some distance
from the seconds when they met in the field
to make arrangements. They stepped off the
distance, | think Mr.. Sanders did the STEP
ping. In about twenty minutes the Princl-
pals walked and took their positions, Col.
Cash standing down the river which was south
aud Col. Shannon up the river. The prinoi-
pals stood parallel with the river, Col: Shan
mons second being stationed to the right in
his rear and Col Cash's second standing on
the left opposite Col. Shannon's second. Col.
Shannon wore black alpaca sack coat, white

CONDITION OF THE COTTON CROP

CONDITION OF THE COTTON CROP
The condition of the cotton crop in the
different States is made up by the respective
Exchanges of States named from reports to
to the 9th instant:
SOUTH CARoLINA.-The crop report of
the Charleston Cotton Exchange, based on
II replies from 30 counties, is as follows:
The weather for the month of June is univer.
sally reported as very dry--no rain, in fact,
having fallen except in some sections. A
few report too many windy and cool nights,
and the balance excessively hot. The wealth
er for the season to the 30th Of June is re-
ported as more favorable by 33, about the
same by Is and less favorable by %. Only
trifing amount has been abandoned and TAX
ing the whole State, no more than in average
years. The stands are reported as good to
very fine by SO, and poor by 8. Early plant.
ing is universally reported as blooming and
forming we'll, but late planting has been so
retarded by drought that it is quite small, and
not yet blooming in some sections, but all
report that with rain soon it may yet catch
up. Present condition of crop as compared
with last year is reported by Al better, by IA
as about the same and by 16 as not as good,
but ali report the crop as exceptionally clean,
long and dry, giving planters every opportu-
nifty Of getting rid Of grass, and generally
keeping clean, even in increased acreage,
which at date of our last report many thought
it could not be accomplished with the limited
labor ut command.
NoRTH CAROLINA AND VIRGINIA.-All
late planting in those States is backward, ow-
ing to drought. Early planting is blooming
and forming we'll, blooms beginning as early
as the 10th of June. Forty.six counties re-
port the condition OF the crop as very good,
27 as fair, as poor, the same as last year,
and makes no report; 48 show better con-
dtion than last year, and ten to twelve days
earlier, 1S the same condition, and Is not so
favorable, owing to dry weather. Ten re-
plies indicate very toward and promising
crop, 80 show fair condition and prospects,
but great need of rain. (the late planting,
amounting to Is or 20 per cent. Of the crop.
is suffering in consequence, 5 indicate bad
and unpromising condition, and 20 make
no replies Lice are reported in one county.
MIss1ss1pPI.-Stands good and the plant
blooming and forming we'll. There is some
little complaint of grass as compared with
last year, but otherwise the p esent condition
is as good to better, very few reporting it not
80 good On an average of the State. the
present condition is good and compares favor
ably with last year. There is some complaint
