General johnson, in which he calls atten-

President Fulda declares there is nothing

action be commenced in the name
of the State against the club before
one of the judges in the Superior Court OF

SoUTn CARDINALS RICE CRop.-
The prospect for the rict crop on the
Cooper river is rather discouraging,
owing to the protractoh dry weather
throughout the spring and early sum
mcr. The river has been too salt to
be used in irrigating the land, con
%scqucntly many of the largest plan
tations have not been cultivated.
The reports from the South arc more
encouraging; The crops upon the
Edisto and Puh-I'on are very pro-
mising-bcttcr than for the past
three ~ four years. On the Ashc-
poo, with a few exceptions, the crop
is n failure. On the Combahcc they
are very good. Although the plant
crs have had some difficulty with
the salt water, they will make a fair
average crop, the recent rains giving
them a sufficient supply to last until
harvest. The inland planters along
the Port Royal and Charleston and
Savannah Railway have had very
little reserve water, and have consc-
qucntly suffered, although they are
now promising a better out-turn.

Common Sense.

One of the best ways to keep in
good health is not to think or worry
much about it. If you feel strong
and well, don't imagine that some
insidious disease may be secretly at
lacking your constitution. Eat and
drink what you desire, as long as it
agrees with you. Your stomach
knows pretty well what it can digest.
Plain, simple food is desirable, as n
general thing, but the luxurics of
the table, in moderation, will
do no harm. Alchoholic bcvcr-
ages + not fit for habitual use.
They are true medicines, and should
only be used like any other medicines.
AS regular beverage they can do
no good, but will almost certainly do
Iarm. Take all the sleep you can
get, but remember that the necessary
amount varies greatly for different
persons. Some must sleep at least
