ENOREE PLANTATION, NEwsERRY County, 8. C., Oct. 22, 1871. ABince [left New York, about the middie of last mber, Ihave been through the larger part of cotton-growing counties of this State; hence I give afair idea of the gathering crop. The crop, particularly where it was planted carly and worked well, is fino; that on the bottoms is erally inferior, \ Whe cotton crop under no circumstances can ex- the half of what it was last year. In conversa- with planters the great majority of them esti- te their crops at less than naif of jast year's, My WN crop, and I know it is above the average of 108¢ I have seen, wlil be at least forty per cent less I mace last year, In many sections the weed a6 large as could be desired, but nothing is so jon as to see large stalks without @ single boll, 9 earth seems not. to have yielded her Birength. The best lands have made the poor- ylela, If the accounts from other parts at all reliable the crop cannot exceed, if It , sixty per cent of last year’s, which will be bout two millions cight hundred thousand baies, th the present short crop and the general de- realization now setting in, consequent upon the administration of our State government, which thoroughly corrupt and imbecile, I can see nothing the future for us but disaster and ruin, yThe civil docket in this county has not been eared in twelve years, and i Juage Orr, whom all know 1s aman of great good sense, had not held one term of the Cours here it would have been Dverwhelmed.

A squad of soldiers has just brought in the famous, better, perhaps, notorious General B. F, Bates. The General made himselffamous last spring by killing young John Gray Hampton, a Ku Klux, and now it turns out that the General was a Ku Kiux himself. It is sald that he belonged to the Union League and Ku Klux at the same time. As it was impossible for any mortal man to ride these two horses at the same time, 1t is natural for the General to fall be- tween the two.

From all appearances there will be lively times at Judge Bond's Court in November, THE NAUGHTY LATTER DAY SAINT. Continuation of the Trial of Thomas Hawki: for Adultery—Testimony of the First Wite. {From the Salt Lako Tribune, Oct, 20, ‘The morning session was occupied in chailenging Jurors, and abundant proof was given of how dim- cult 1b was even for the men themselves to decide whether or not they were qualified to try the case at bar. e Heman, Richard lorris, being questioned touching matters pertiuent to the case, refused to answer either way, bis scruples on the poly gamic question appearing to be very exact.

Mr. itch, for the aefence, interposed, asking the lady what relation sne sus. tained to Thomas Hawkins. She replied:—“H wile.” This drew an srgument from Mr. Fitch, with citations from some of the best English au- thorities, to show that @ wife or husband was nota competent witness, one against the other. Mr, Max- Well 1ustanced a statute of Michigan which, like the Territorial statute of Utal, admitted the Wife asa complaining witness, and Prosecutor Baskin argued in favor oi the validity and justice of the Leguslas tive enactment on adultery, claiming the compe- tency of the wite as a complaining withess through- out the entire case. Mr. Miner invalidated the Territorial statate altogether in Lis argument; but the Judge sustained it, and permitted Mrs, Hay 1o testliy as tue complaining witness, ae Mrs. Hawkins testitied that she had been fi Territory of Utah nineteen years, and that ake. fake married to the defendant twenty-two years ago, in St. George's church, in Birmingham, England, mn proof of which her marriage certificate was exhibi- ted. From her statement it appears that carnal connection had taken place between her husband and one Elizaneth Meters, commencing about seven years ago, but under the 1orm of polyga- mous marriage—tme witness herself referring to Elizabeth Meiers and Sarah Davis as her husband's wives. ‘The witness had also lived with them in that relationship in the same house; had many times seen her husband in bed with Bliza- beth Meiers, and had seen both undressed. The prosecutor. drew Mrs. Hawkins out upon the more delicate point, when she testified to having been once @ Witness to the act of which her husband 1s charged; she never saw her husband in bed with Sarah Davis, but had heard them together in the night. She has seven living children by her husband and had always disapproved of his having more Wives. She had had many conversations with her husband in reference to is conduct. Ho said he was doing oaly his pegs duty and that she had had her day; he had to live with some one else; told him { didn’t believe in such a d—d doctrine. They had lots of quarrels on the subject; he said he had got some one else that suited him better; Hliza- beth Meters had had two children, one of whom 1s dead, the other about nine years old; Hawkins al- ways called them his children; witness had seen her husband and Meters cohabit together but once. _Alter cross-examination by Mr. Fitch, the witness was relieved from the painful ordeal, aud the case Was adjourned, The cross-exammation of Mrs. Hawkins was con- cluded IE ee She testified that Thomas Hawkins ceased to live with her as his wife five years ago last February; that he left her house a Year ago lastinonth; witness did not bring this com- pidint before because she thought he might return to live with her; had secn him in bed with Elizabeth Meters @ year ago last august; when she observed them in the act did not look in the window any length of time, but just glanced in while passing; said her husband Knew she was always opposed to his Naving other women, and especially to his living with Elizabeth Meiers; she was @ woman Who made trouble and ‘set her children against hery the marriage was fixed up White she (witness) was absent on a visit to a | friend; witness attended the marriage ceremony at ae fhe gWment house: went there wo prover renters 5 venon made to her ihe goctrine of polsgame. ofa het hy to Hilzabeth Mears; he knew witness was 0] | to lt; no woman is in favor of it 1f it is TAGURNS down to her real feelings; the ceremony at the en- dowment house was performed by Mr. Woodraf; dia not remember what it was, except that the par- ties took a marriage obligation. On the re-examination by the prosecution « unimportant evidence was elicited in reference to interviews with one of the counsel for detence b. Witness, who said she had never offered or agree: to compromise this case. She said Mr. Miner had told her she had better withdraw the writ, as the lawyers would otherwise get all her property. Elza Ann Hawkins was sworn, and testified:—Is a daughter of Thomas Hawkins; sixteen years of age; born in_ Salt Lake; lives next to the fownsend House, im the Fourteenth ward, in the south part of the house; her fatuer and wives have lived in the north part of the house; have seen them there frequently; never. saw father and either of these women in bed; Elizabeth Meters has two children yet” by Thomas Hawkins, who go by his name and catt him father. ane case was here closed on the part of the prose- eution. ‘the defence offered the original aMdavit of Mrs. Hawkins in the case as evidence to siow contra- in the city of Columma, during (he last nigh!s of the ate sesrion of this, moustrous body, emptied their jmmates into the hati of the Il ot Representa- tives, and the members duriug é itting ley round loose and hovnobbed over their glasses of wilskey with these daughters of uifamy, Whata stain upon the civilization and Christianity of the age!

IMPROVEMENTS IN CANAL NAVIGATION, (From the Syracuse (N. Y.) Courier, Oct, 25.) The action of the Legislature in offering $100,000 for the best plan for carrying freight expeditiously and cheap on tie canals {3 calling out Many com- ope and a large number of pians have already been submitted, while others are being completed. Many of them must of necessity fail of meeting the required object, while there may be several, and, no doubt, will be some which will prove really of substantial benefit, Among these pins all are in. gentous, while some apply power In a manner very singular it not @togetner new. One thing seems to ve clear, and tiratssi that ere long navigation on the canals will be wholly propelied by steam, and that, too, in such a manner as not only to quicken trans. portation but cheapen sreights. Among the many plans submitted ts one which we Understand bas already been successful in Bet- gium—that of ee a boat by means of a wire cable tu the bottom of the canal, which runs over a Wheel attached to the side of the boat—this wheel being turned by an engine im the boat. For this purpose an engine has been constructed in Belgium of some fifty or sixty horse power, and brought to Buffalo tn this State, where 9 number ot capitalists interested in this matter throughout the State have bad a boat constructed under the supervision of once of their number, Cepeait Baldwin, This hoat has been compieed and tested ip Buffalo, ana the mnten- tion now Is to proceed to Troy, where it isto be tested by means of a cable six miles long, This cable is a rope of wire oue inch in diameter, which it 18 claimed is strong enough for the purpose. The boat—which, by the way, is appropriately named the Governor Clinton—| Buffalo on Sun- day morning, at seven o'clock, and, with six hours and a half detention, reached this city yesterday at # quarter-past four. She was light, liowever, not being intended to carry freight. She was propelled by ascrew, there belng no cable, of course, in the canal, Our reporter paid her a visit and found a neat little crait, with a rudder at each end, so as to run either way Without turning, The screw ts in- tended to ve used only in turning bends in the canal, should the plan succeed, An examination of the engine showed it to be one of pecuiiar constrac- tion, but comprising a great deat of wiility within.a very small space, This engine is connected by ‘a | shalt to an immense Wheel on the left side of the voat, over which the cable ts to run in a groove, be- tng hetJ in its place by smaller wheels and running lat the bow and stern of the boat over other Wheeis to preven’ rubbing against tne boat ft is clatmed that this steamer will tow from fifteen to twenty heavily loaded boats at the rate of at least three miles an four, and consume only eight or ten tous of coal in running from Batfalo to Albany, The dea ws to have these boats stationed at in+ tervals along the canal, and each one tow all the boats which run over that ‘section, thus avoiding the necessity of passing each other, ’ A serlous accident was met with betweea Woedds- port and Jordan, where 4 collision occurred be- ——— (ANTAL AND COWE, ROUAL, TucCBSDAy, Oct, 26—6 P. iu} On Change to-day wheat ¥@3 firmer, with more doing.

MONEY IRREGULAR, The money market was active early ithe day, and borowers paid seven per cent on gover ament collaterals, and seven per cent, in gold, on stovks. There was also a large trade in turning stocks Ao 1-82 per cent commission in addition to egal inter+ est. Betore three o'clock, however, there was a marked relaxation, owing to the Treasury disburse- ments for the bonds bought yesterday, and balances Were freely offered at five per cent before the close of banking hours, ome of this money came from par- tles reputed to have been concerned in the locking- Up operations earlier in the week, and their willing- hess to lend was therefore regarded with some sus- picion. The leading bank which was creditor at the Clearing House yesterday for over $2,000,000, Was debtor to-day for the same amount, showing a res toracion of money to the street. ‘The officials of the bank disclaim connection with any locking-up ope- ration, and assert thatthe money was deposited in the course of legitimate business by the agents of one of the Canadian banks who were changing their loans in the gold market. Prime commercial paper was quoted 10318 per cent discount, i Foreign exchange was firmer on the basis of 108% - for prime bankers’ sixty-day sterling, and 1093 for sight pills. The cable announces that the Bank of England made no alteration of the rate of discount tnis morning, anu that the stock of bullion had increased £1,300,000 during the weck. THE GOVERNMENT SALE OF GOLD, The Assistant Treasurer recetved bids to the Amount of $5,040,000 for the government gold offered to-day at prices ranging from 110,28 to 111,77, iy sale of two millions was effected at 111.77 a 1,60. ‘The Treasury patd out $350,000 on account of No- vember interest, making a total so far of $2,900,000. The buyers of the gold sold to-day took out $600,000, leaving $1,400,000 worth to bo paid for to-morrow, GOLD STRONG—111% A 11234, The gold market was strong, owing to purchases by the clique, who are arranging to place them- selves on the other side of the account, The large bids for the government gold also helped the ad- vauce, which reached one-half percent. The award Of $2,000,000 produced a reaction, and the market left off at the decline. The chief Quctuations are Shown in the table: eu from flat to 8-64 for borrowing. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as follows:— Gold cleared... told balances.. Currency balances. GOVERNMENTS STRONG.

STOCKS DULL, UNSETTLED AND LOWER, The stock market opened with a weak and droop- ing feeling, which led to a decline, ranging from one-half to two per cent—the 1atter extreme being reached in the case of Pittsburg. As money became easy prices advanced, and the best figures had | been recovered by three o’clock; but later tn the day, during the closing hours in the Stock Ex- change and during the final dealings on the side- walk, there was a strong pressure to sell Rock Island, Lake Shore, Pacific Mat! and Wabash, under which prices again went o:f to the lowest of the day. The latest theory of “the situation,’ which was as much a puzzle as ever to the street, has it that the “bull” clique gracefally strack their colors to the vanderbilt party, proposed a parley and had a consultat'on, resulting in a harmonious plan of ope- rations for the future. The Vanderbut party are to let the ‘bulls’? get out of thetr toad of stocks with. out interference, after which a grand united “bear” campaign ts to be inaugurated. The Ene or Broad strect clique are said to have used the persuasion of a threat that if not assisted out of their present position they would devote their whole energies to grasping control of the Lako Shore road, to accomplish which they would aban- don every other scheme, vYhe William street clique were only too willing to consent to any plan which would enable them to get back at iower prices the stocks they sold in the panic, Under this arrangement the William street parties made money easy again helping the effect of the govern- ment disbursements in that direction, while the “halls” quietly sold as much stock as the market would take, occastoning the decline late in the day. On the street, however, the downward turn in prices was ascribed to a rumor that Mr. Tweed was to be arrested in the morving, the uneasy teel- ing being aggravated by a revival of the old report of trouble with the Chicago banks.
