CLARENDON, Juoe Is, 1894.

CLARENDON, June Is, 1894.
We haze seen most of thescrops along the
line from Pmewood to Manning, and have
made inquiry in Manning and elsewhere, as
to their general appearance in other parts of
our county. Those we have seen look as
tonishingly we'll indeed, considering the dry
weather we have had and still have. Rain is
very much needed. There has been rain
between Packsyille and Manning. Though
not sufficient to do any lasting. good, yet;it
has certainly yivi6ed the crops on that line
very much. Planting is about done except
poteto-sprou,s and peas. Most of each have
been planted, and seem to be doing tolerably
well. We have never seen so little grass be-
fore in any past year. The drought has done
much good right here. Crops were never in
a better condition for the reception of rain.
We have been to two pic MICS lately at Big
Lake, on the old Judge Richardson plantation
in Sumter County, There were plenty Of
fsh caught-had nice time. We bad the
great pleasure Of meeting with Messrs. 7. B.
jenkins and R. s. Hood of the town of Sum-
ter. They added greatly TO the pleaaantness
of both pic nics--would be most happy to
meet with those two genial elegant gentle
men, as often as it may suit their convenience
aud ours to be thrown al other picsDics to-
gether.
do not like or wish to write about politics
too much, but | suppose you would like to
have all the news over here. Well, our new
candidate for the Sixth Congressional Dis
trict has made his peace with ''the powers
that be-" and has entered the canvass as
"Straightout" Democrat. The most promi-
nent Reformer in this county (he says) told
him he would vote for him He says his
heart is large enough to hold every democrat
in his beloved State, and that his only wish
is to assist in uniting the white people against
Elery NJ. Brayton and his iuimical gang.
think he is exactly right. When such men
as Brayton, Webster l. Co., make their ap-
pearance upon the arena of our politics, oar
candidate thinks it is 'shigh time" for the
white people o: South Carolina, to get to-
gether as soon az possible.
