An esteemed friend writing us from Ath ens, Go., on busines, closes his letter thus : " Very dry through this section of the country. Crops almost an entire failure I havo just returned from the West, after an absenco of soma month?. North Alabama, and a portion of Tennessee, will not make the seed planted; hundreds of acres aro being cut up for forage Tho Cotton is almost as bad." -? - President Johnson's Visit South. Prior to his leaving the Capital on his Northern tour, it has been ascertained that the Prosidont expressed a strong dcBiro to visit the loading Southern cities, and if it is at all practicable the trip will be made carly in tho ensuing year. Meanwhile it is not unlikely that ho maj mako a tour of Virginia aud North Carolina scon after , his return from his visit to Chicago. So says tho j Washington correspondent of tho Phibtdelphia Lutger. Gov. Orr's Message. "Wo lay beforo our readers/this* week, tho lato message of His Excellency, dov. Onn, to th* Legislature of South /Carolina, now assembled in extra session. The able document ia question is ncithor long nor labored ; therefore every ono will read it. And thia being tho case, we neod enter into no analysis or synopsis of it. . In our opinion it cannot fail to meet tho almost entire approval of the people of South Carolina. Many men will perhaps object to certain recommendations in that part concerning tho negro code. Theabolishment of the Graud Jury in the District Court, and tho doing away with bond and security in tho case of ono man indicting another, as is there advised, would, it seems to us, bo very dangerous innova tion?. We earnestly hope these alterations will not bc made. As to the advice concerning negro testimony, we think it admirable. , The time has come when wo must lay aside divers long cherished notions and prejudices, and come up to " thc spirit of tho age." ~ This in, tho South, is an idea and a phras?, which is abundantly ridiculed Just now ; but nevertheless, it has plenty of sense and reason in it. Gov. ORR takes a clear and conciso viow of tho situation and wants of tho State, and makes many important suggestions on four groat points, which, if acted upon wisely and wei), cannot fail to bring relief to all classes of people, and bene fit to all classes of society. The Fcniteutiury. Gov. Cnn recommends a Penitentiary in South Carolina, and so,' we believe, do most of thc pa pers in the State. And so do wo most heartily. Simply that rascals and malefactors may bj made to work, and thus, nolens tolens, do SOLQO good in tho world. They should by all means bo made to support themselves whilo in jail. Above, wo have alluded to " tho spirit of thc ;e ;" but still we do not, share one whit in the m i wk i sh and ridiculous sentimentalism which sees such special degradation in corporal punisbmot ts. Wo da not see that a thief is moro degraded by whip or pillory than by tho verdict which pro nounces him a thief, and puts him as such in tho penitentiary at hard labor. Tho degradation is in thc cn'wc ; and the man mean enough to steal cannot be dograded by the lash. We advocate the Penitentiary, therefore, because of tho valuablo la bor that will be done within its walls, and not on account of the modern refinements which will pre vail there. The President llenches the End ol' His Journey. Tho President, and his suite, of whose tour Westward wo spoke last week, reached Chicago on tho 5th instant. He went thither to bc present at tho laying of the corner stone of the monument to tho late STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS. This was due on the day after bis arrival. He made a speech on tho occasion. His reception in Chica go was respectful. Not so in Cleveland, Ohio, and one or two other places in Ohio and Indiana. The demonstrations at these places provo that hatred to the South flourishes among them like a green bay tree. At Cleveland, the President's speech was so interrupted hy disgraceful Radical outcries, that it (tho speech) appears to us but a string of undignified and exasperated ejaculations. A row was anticipated at Chicago, but nothing of th? sort took place. Tho President has been Invited by tho people of Now Orleans to extend his juurnoy and visit that city. Tho Augusta papers suggest that thc municipal authorities of that city invite him thither. Washington correspondents of Northern papers say that it is his desiro and intention to make a tour of tho prominent Southern cities carly in thc coming year. The corner-stone of the Douglas monument was laid in Chicago on tho Cth. Tens of thousands of persons were present. Gen. Dix's address is said to be a master-piece of oratory. The President concluded his remarks on the laying of the corner stone of the Douglas Monu ment, as follows: I am present to show my high regard for a man who perished in tho public service, and one whom I respectad and loved. I have no eulogy to pro nounce;!' t has been dono better than I could do if jinc men may wear tho civic wreath which ."o nation weaves for those who servo thoir coun try in lofty positions, or their names may bo en graved upon tho imperishable records of national glory. This column is raised to tho memory of the Legislator and thc Representative Man. A con sciousness of duty performed was his whilo living, and his reward will bo the inscription of his name high on tho cenotaph erected by a grateful na tion to commemorate the services of those v bo lived aud toiled for their country and tho Ur on of tho States.^flmmenso applause.] Fellow-cit izens, I believe in my heart that if we could com municate with tho dead and causo them to know what was transpiring on earth-wore it possible for Stephen A. Douglas to bo disturbed from bi slumbcr-he would rise from his grave, shake oil tho habiliments of tho tomb,.and proclaim " the Constitution and the Uuion-they must bc prc served." [Great applause. A Nasty Mess. A somewhat numerous and extremely nasty set of Radicals met in Convention in Philadelphia on the 3rd and adjourned on tho 7th. As they arc, unfortunately, too numerous to call by name, let it suffice to say that all the nastiest nigger lovers, North and South, were there. Delegates wore present, if wo do not err, from every South ern State except South Carolina. And there were .onie prcsont who wore not so nasty as others And tho loss nasty (Bordor State Delegates) were not in favor uf immediate universal ucgro suffrage, and quarreled with tho vory nasty, who were; tho former finally rctirod in disgust; the latter, left alone, quarreled, wo believe, among themselves. Tho nastiest Southern men present (than whom none could by any possibility bo nastier) wore old Brownlow, Governor of Tennessee, and Jack Hamilton, Ex-Gov. of Texas. Fred Douglas, the rich nigger from Rochester (or somo where up thero) in New York, was a dologato. And Wen dell Phillips was there. And tho ghost of old John Brown was there. And the spirit of Dostio hovered around. And Beast Butler was thore. And Anna Dickinson had to do with iL And Abby Kelly no doubt. And the whole thing was as nasty a moss as Christians cvor beheld. And we arc delighted to say that no good to thc nasty cause can possibly como out of it. The Columbia correspondent of thc Char leston Courier taya "Governor Orr will recom mend to tho General Assembly tho acceptanco by tho State of the provisions of the Act of Congress of July 2, 1882, donatingcortain public lands "to tho several States and Territories which may es tablish colleges for tho benefit of agricultural and mechanic art," and tho appointment of a commission to mature plans in conformity with the requirements of the Act. According to the terms of the Act, South Carolina will be entitled to 180,000 aerea of land. The Governor thinks that, by the sale of thc scrip for these lands, the State may realize $150,000. As thero are no public lands within tho limits of the State, the scrip will bo taken as a substitute therefor. North Carolina and Georgia have already availed them selves of the advantages offered by tho Act." A Word to the Wise? When wc advise our readers to give COHEN a call, (says tho Augusta Daily Press,) and assuro them that they will bo well received and bu suro to get good bargains, we 8By whereof wo know. Wo havo tried COUEN'S establishment. Wo have tried his hats, and wo havo tried his shoes, and we hesitate not to recommend them all to tho pub lic. Good articles, cheap articles, and courtesy lo customers, constituto his motto. His store is on Broad street, opposite the Augusta Hotel. ?S" Tho Constitutionalist of Friday say? ; "We tako pleasure in noting that the Granite Mills, Mossrs. George T. Jackson A Co., have xt ducod tho price of their primo corn meal to $1 55 at wholesale. When white corn was selling in this maakct at $1 70, the Granite Mills retained the prico of their meal at il CO, aod now, so soon ns there is a slight decline in cora, they roduce j tte price of ?ata'." Another Protrac ted Meeting. Tea days ago, wo chronicled on interest! protracted uioetiug in thc Eaplist Church at ll plu.ee. .With equal plca.'uro wo now recor&t fact that ? similar meeting is at present going in the Methodist Church. Rev. W. ?. CL??IK pastor of the Church, than whom no member thc Confcrenco is u-ore ardently .and truthful zealous, has gathered to his aid the* Rey./j( HERMON, in chargo of tho Butler'Circuit, and-1 gothcr, these oarnest laborors, faithful in t cause of thoir Master, arc making most pr<tii worthy efforts to arouse a spirit of religion in o community. In thc course of tho summer ni passing away, tho Methodists Ihroughout t State have held protracted meotings with t happiest results. Tho number of persons w have joined this Church in South Carolinadurii tho la3t five months is enormous. On tho Ne berry circuit, only a fortnight or three wea back, moro than a hundred accessions were ma to tho Church under tho labors of thc Ret Messrs. ZIMMERMAN, TRA WICK, Boro, and otbei And at MCKKXORY'S Chapel, twelve miles abo us, ono of Rev. Mr. CLARKE'S Churches, a co sidorublo number of now members wore ve lately udmitted. Wo all know, and how well for us would it if wc could act upon that knowledge, that mi was created to servo God ou earth, and enjoy i otornity of bliss boyond tho grave. This is-tb ?Ao?fd bc-tho great, and only great, object life. In comparison with it, everything cl should sink into insignificance. The influent honors, wealth and pleasure enjoyed on oar terminate with our earthly existence. How n cessary then, how all-important, that the salv tion of the immortal soul be made paramount every other consideration. The tenure of life is at best uncertain. To-da full of life and health, tho recipient of honoi and blessed with an abundance of this world goods; to-morrow,-ayo, tomorrow,-the vol of death may summon the soul to the judgmei to the bar of the groat tribunal to answer for tl doeds done in the'flosh. Wordly preferment w: not then avail the criminul. The wealth pocscs ed and the honors reaped on earth cannot thi avert thc sentence of the unerring, tho impartit tho righteous Judgo. The divine advocate wi pleads for us now, will then no longer pleai nothing but the record of a well-spent life ct then save us from the punishment due to sin. How great then is tho incentive to serve Gc faithfully. The things of this world poss awa but the blessed immortality boyond the grave imperishable, eternal. Tho fruil bark of Hf when wrecked upon this sea of trouble and so row, and when all schemes of-earthly joy ox happiness are crushed, finds a refuge in the sui stantial and soothing consolations of the religic left us by Jesus. Let us then hearken to tl voice of God, and embrace, ere it shall be t( late, the teachings of his holy servants. If wc would but serve thc author of our bein with thc same cheerfulness and avidity that v do mammon, there would be not only moro ha] piness for us in this life, but also an eternity i bliss in thc next. The fleeting and visional joys of this world aro as nothing compared wit tho lifo to come. God created us that we migl obey and serve Him. Bat if we disregard H teachings, wc shall be punished. We, to whoi all light has been vouchsafed, should always kee in view the groat object of life-the Salvation i our ctornal souls. By tho obsorvance of tl teachings of Christ, we will enjoy that conten mont, peace and happiness which Christ aloi can give to His childron on earth. And whe the work of tho faithful servant is done, and tl great battle of life is ovor, God will roward bil with an eternity of never-ending bliss for tt faith and zeal of a well-spent life, and for tl good works done in tho flesh. ? ?

Drawing his pistol, Mr. Keith shot three times wounding the negro each time, who, however, managed to make his escape. Walking on, Keith had not proceeded far, when the negro suddenly rushed on him again, and crying "now is my time," shot, blowing off a part of Keith's head, and killing him instantly.
