able and nineteen unfaVorable:
COTTON,
There has been decided improve
ment in the condition of cotton since
June 1st, the seasons having been very
favorable throughout the month. Seve-
raj correspondents report the crop
grassy" OH account of excessive rain
fall, but generally the crop has been
we'll worked and is "clean." The Con-
dition on July 1st is: In upper Carolina
so; middle Carolina 81; lower Carolina
81. Average for the State SS, against
"a at the same date in 1883, and IS on
the 1st Of last month.
CORN.

an average crop, though in some Sec
tions crops on bottom lands have been
damaged by freshets and in other Sec
tions the bill bug and bud worm have
caused light damage. The condition Of
upper Carolina is reported at 100;
middle Carolina 9G, and lower Carolina

ton. 1t is estimated that there has

cent. in the area of the rice crop. The
condition on July l is: Upper Carolina
95, middle Carolina sc, and lower Caro-
lima 96-average for the State sc,
against 90 at the same date in 1888, and
80 on the lst Of last month.

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years Doctors pro
nounced it a local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies. and by constant
ly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitutional
disease, and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken inter
nally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spooful 1t acts directly upon the blood
and mucus surface of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails % cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials. Address, FL. CHENEY

or VINO is missing. The flood was so
great and the current so swift that no
help could be rendered without great
danger.
= The State street iron bridge and the
railroad bridge were both swept away.
They were large structures.
THE DAMAGE AT GLovERsvILLE
Yesterday, during the heaviest part
OF the storm, Main and Blocker streets
in Gloversville were flooded with
water. The new pavement in Becker
street was torn up for several blocks.
A number of pavements in the upper
part Of the town are entirely surround
ed by water.
The foundation walls OF new build
ing being constructed on Main street,
Gloversvllle, were partly carried away.
The iron bridges on the Central and on
the Fonda, Johnstown and Glovers-
Vile Railroad at Fonda are gone.
The pecuniary loss will not be so very
great. The railroad and street bridges
in Johnstown were large first-class
structures. The Ferry street bridge
consisted of an arch spanning the en-
tire width of the stream. 1t was upon
one of the plank walks that the peo-
pie were standing when the arch was
carried away. Schriber's large mill is
entirely wrecked and will entail a loss
of about $4,000. There are several
small buildings in the village which
are partially ruined, their foundations
being undermined. Many of the
bridges on the country roads along the
valley are gone and some of the fields
of grain are partially covered with
water. The loss of property at Glovers-
vile will probably be covered byS3, 900.
1t is quite likely that, including the
loss of the bridges in the Mohawk
Valley at Fonda, 100000 will cover the
damage wrought by yesterdays storm.
WAS 1T \ CLOCD-BURST:
JoHSsTowN, \. v, July l0.-Caya-
dutta Creek was never before SO high.
The creek rose from twelve to fifteen
feet in thirty minutes. The general be-
lief is that the flood was caused by a
cloud-burst near Johnstcwn. This
theory is confirmed by the fact that at
Hale's mills, three miles and half up
creek, no damage was done, and the
dam there is all right.

day thriving and imposing business

Israel Putnam and his Plough.
1Wide AWake.1i

The old story-books made US believe
that on the twentieth of April, 1775,
Israel Putnam was ploughing in his
field, when messenge, in hot haste
with news of the battle of Lexington,
and that the hero-farmer unyoked his
oxen and left them to their faie, mount
ed a horse and was off to the north
without so much as saying "Good-by"
those of his house.
And were not We brought up in the
belief that this line ..
"They left the ploughshare in the mould
was inspired especially by his cases
And have not we, all of us evet since.
our childhood been familiar with pie
lures representing him ploughing, clad
in frock as long as nightgown,
which no farmer could wear at any
kind of work without imnauenr and
unacceptable peril of>being tripped up
at every step he took-to say nothing
of turning a furrow, when he would
be indeed fortunate if he did not find
himself under the ploughshare?
And to know after many years that
there was no plough in the case-to
find ou. that that, too, is myth
Ii was, indeed, the day after the
fight at Lexington, in the morning;
and Israel Putnam was at work on his
farm in Pomfret Connecticut. But he
was building a stone wall, with his
hired men and he had on leather
frock and apron-the frock must have
been short one; fancy one Of that
material coming to his heels! He took
off the apron, but did not wait. to
change the check shirt he had worn in
the field, and was off without delay.
He rode the same horse one hundred
miles in eighteen hours and reached
Cambridge at sunrise the next morn

A STRANGE RELIGIOUS ORDER.
The Sabbath Set Aside, and Thinks In
fants Go to He'll.

COLUMBIA, S. c., July 9.-The cor
respondent of the Southern Christian
Advocate gives the following particu-
lars of new religious community de-
veloping in the eastern part of South
Carolina:
"It may not be entirely uninteresting
to hear something Of a new sect that
has sprung up in Sumter and some OF
the adjoining counties. Some years
ago man named Boyle, who had
been Methodist, and who resided
nearLynchburg, in Sumter county, con-
ceived the idea of founding new sect.
His followers were at first called "True
Light Baptists," but they are COM
monty known as "Boylists." They
have spread up both sides OF
Lynch's river through Sumter, Dar-
lington, Kershaw and Chesterfield
counties, and perhaps farther, taking
hold of the lowest and most ignorant
classes.
"It is not large denomination, and,
thanks to the intelligence of our land,
never can be, but its followers are very
stubborn in their belief, so that It is al
most impossible to reclaim one Of
them.
THEIR DOCTRINES.
'There most prominent and pop
ular doctrine is that it is al unpard-
enable sin for preacher to receive pay
for his work, and this closes their ears
to the efforts of the regular ministry.
They have no regular ministers, but
claim that every member of their
church is inspired Of God to interpret
the Scriptures, thus making every one,
of both sexes, ministers of the Gospel.
THE WOMEN PREACH.

1T is not uncommon for women to
preach among them. Another favorite
dogma is that they constitute the true
followers of God, and that all other de-
nominations are heading straight for
the devil. They believe in immersion.
