LETTER FROM ROCK HILL.

Rock HILL, June 1.-The Rock Hill Lit
erarv and Musical Club had quite an inter-
esting debate last Monday night, the ques-
ton being "Have savage nations the right
to possess the soil ?" The question was
ably argued, and the speeches were enjoyed
by the large audience. The President de-
cided the question in the affirmative.
Tomorrow night the Club will give a
concert, consisting of vocal and instrument
tai music.
June 18th, the query being "Should immi,

is in blocks about 2 feet by IS inches wide
and Is inches thick.
Capt. +. r. Mills is the boss gardener of
this place. I was shown by him on Satur-
day last, 10 head of cabbage that averaged
5 pounds, one weighing over 6 pounds, and
he informs me that he has a large number
yet in his garden. The seeds were planted
in a hot bed in January and the plants set
out in March.
<A duck was killed in this place a few
days ago that had a siX-penny nail stuck
through it's gizard, and from all appearance
it had been there for some time. This

LETTER FROM FORT MILL.

7EyoRr MILL, S. c., June 1.-The flood
(which visited us aboutthe 10th ultimo,. was
quite varied, both in effects and traditions.
At one time there was a rumor that 9OC
railroad hands were standing on the iron
bridge across Catawba river to hold it down
and prevent it from floating off; but inves'
tigation showed that some one had eXag-
gerated, the flood not being quite so high as
that of 1865, and the number of hands about
800 less than was represented.
Some lowlands were benefited by a de-
post of other peoples soil, while the lands
of others were Scared and torn by deep
gulches and injured by deposits of huge
sand banks. Whether the real estate &C
count is evenly balanced it is difficult to
decide; but it is certain that great damage
was done to crops along the various streams
Many farmers have been compelled to re-
plant both corn and cotton on low lands.
Wheat had too much wind and rain while
in bloom, and in places was badly beaten
by hail. Oats generally look well, and TO-
bacco, a little of which is planted in this
section, is doing finely.

THE CROPS AROITND GLOVER.

CLOVER, June I'VE are now having an
extremely wet spell; too much rain for
our sandy and bottom lands. The prospects
for a crop in this section are very gloomy;
Cotton on sandy land is doing no good, and
that on common bottom land is very poor.
It has been so wet that farmers have not
been able to replant their lowlands, and
what was left from the overflow of two
weeks ago is drowned out.
Some farmers report wheat as being very
light-the heads not filled-While others re-
port a fair crop. The oat crop is very light.
Vegetables are fine, and so is the fruit
crop abundant. The fruit crop is the best
we have had for years.

SENATOR BUTLER on FREE TRADE.

Senator Butler has recently written a let
ter to the Free Trade Association of this
State. He avows himself a revenue re-
former in the best sense Of that term. He
says that "tariff taxation should be gradu-
ally reduced until we have reached the
point when each article will produce the
largest amount of revenue, and then leave
off, transferring from time to time such ar
ticles to the free list as should be found from
experience to be most conveniently spared
from the revenue list.". On this position
the New York Times comments as follows:
"This is plain and reasonable. 1t would
not be easy to do, because all the protected
interests would rally to the defense of each.
But it is what the country will surely de-
mand and what it must get if it is to have
anything like a fair chance in the struggle
for commercial progress. Gradually and
surely is the right motto for tariff reduc-
ton, and if the Southern representatives
could be united in carrying it out the end

APPALLING RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

The Charleston NeWs anil Courier of Tues
day devoteS nearly a page to a graphic &C
count of a serious railroad accident that
occurred to the northWard bound passenger
train of the North Eastern Railroad, which
left Charleston shortly after noon on Mon
day. The accident occurred at 30 L. NJ,
while the train was crossing the Santee Rlv-
err trestle, at a point two and a half miles
from st. Stephens. The Santee swamp was
reached on time and here the down train,
due in Charleston at t o'clock, was met.
This train had just crossed the long trestle
which lies on the south of the river and had
passed over it without trouble. A few
minutes later the fated train, bearing its
doomed freight, entered the trestle and in
another instant the work of death had been
done. The trestle suddenly gave way and
the train, with the exception of the engine
and the last sleeper, plunged headlong into
the canal below. The scene that followed
battles description. Hours were spent in
eXtricating the dead and wounded from the
wreck.
DIR. G. G. Kinloch, VIM. Inglesby, Capt.
J. l.. Cole, Miss Hannah Wilson, Miss Flora
McIver, of Charleston, and Miss Nella Nc
White, of Marion, were instantly killed.
The list of wounded comprises thirteen,
of whom four are seriously injured.
The dead and WOunQeu were taken 10
Charleston on Monday night, and the
wounded given necessary medical attention.
While no one knows for a certainty how
the accident occurred, it is supposed that
something must have given way under the
tender or front car, causing it to fall over on
the side and carrying the trestle and train
with it. The break is about two miles from
the beginning of the %trestle, and includes
four benches, each ten feet in length. The
cars fell one on top of the other, the tender
by the baggage car, the second and first
class passenger coaches and the first Pull
man car, the last remaining on the track.

POLITICS IN THE STATE.

- There is a strong and we'll sustained
movement in Laurens for a county cOnven-
ton of farmers. to select candidates to put
before the primaries as farmers candidates..
Judge Cothran has written a letter for
publication in which he says he does not
seek the nomination for Congressman from
the Third district, but if rendered him he
will not decline it.
The Barnwell People of the Sd instant
says: "It is rumored that Hon. Clinton
Ward, a member of the Legislature from
Edgefield, will oppose Uncle George Till
man for Congress-"
Col. w. r. Davie, of Chester, writes to
the Chester Reporter that he, while he does
not endorse Congressman HemphilPs views
on the silver question, has not thought of
opposing him in the coming race for Con-
gress.

tons of the State expect to be waited into
office by the farmers movement. We can
name a half dozen such men in Orangeburg
county. The farmers see through their

Massey's farm, a negro says he got the
worst whipping of his life. He was knock
ed down twice and rolled about by the hail
so that he was too sore for comfort at all.
This hail also caused some %replanting of
crops. We had hail about two weeks be-
fore, but it was not so damaging. Some or
the hail stones in this latter storm were
nearly as large as a guinea's egg. The only
fun about it was in seeing some of the young
folks trooping home bedrazzled from a pic
mic about a mile south of Fort Mill.
Both Doby's and Darby's bridges, on
Sugar Creek, were broken down by the
flood, which is said to have been the great
est on that stream for a generation back.
The last named bridge has been put in pas
sable condition by Messrs. Culp and others;
the former has totally disappeared. 1t is
thought best by many that a suspension
bridge should be built there, above high
water. This would probably cost as much
as two ordinary bridges, but in the end it
would be economy on account OF Durability
and safety from flood.
AS the weather gets warmer so does the
blood, and more numerous are fights and
big meetings. Last week our colored friends

In fact, an egg at auction WOuld command

stroying many old hens and their chick-a-

On the End instant, Mr.. 10. Bales, living
on A. G.. Springs place, had a difficulty with
some hands about work and received a dam
gerous cut in the forehead from Simon Few
ell's hoe. Simon went to town for warrant
against Bales. Bales was taken to town for
treatment and got a warrant against Simon,
who with his two sons were committed by
Esq. Culp but one boy escaped on the way
to Jail. Bales skull was cut into and raised
by DR.. Gibbon, of Charlotte, and our local
physicians, and on Saturday he was taken
home, apparently doing we'll. On the same
day Mr.. w. H. Crook got into a similar
difficulty, but he was more fortunate than
Mr.. Bales, having used a hoe to some pur-
pose.

MILITARY INSPECTION.

The annual inspection of the Jenkins Rifles
was made on Monday afternoon last, by Ad-
iutant and Inspector-General Manigault, who
was prevented by the rains and the consequent
stoppage of travel from filling his regular ap-
pointment for this place on the 10th ultlmo'
And in consequence of the heavy rain on Mon
day afternoon, the usual parade and drill were
dispensed with. The company numbered s.
men, rank and file, and were highly compll-
mentcd by the inspecting officer on their soldier
ly bearing and the fine condition in which he
found their arms and accoutrements. After his
address to the company, Captain Law and Lieu
tenant Adickes, in response to calls, each made
short and appropriate addresses to the command
and the company was dismissed.
