The work of the farm and plantation has been muoh retarded, of late, by continued, and almost everyday rains The grass, in some places, as a i CHU lt, has serious hold Upon the crop. We have beard of cotton being plowed up, und the land put in corn, in the hope? lessness of tho prospect ?f suoocssful cultivation of the forr?or. The crop, generally, does not promise Well now, aod should the remainder Of tho season prove unfavorable, tho aggregato product of thc staplo in this scotion, will not equal tho crop of last your, notwith? standing the area of land in cultivation ts larger. The corn crop is promising, but gen? eral apprehension prevails of a drought in July, which would prove disastrous, following tho present wot season. KOULBABI, Our cstccmod and courteous friend, C. II. MOISE, of the Planters' Warohouse, left at our office, yesterday morning, a specimen of the singular variety of vege table known as "Kohlrabi," or tur? nip cabbage, grown in his garden at this place. The leavos indicate a oross (?) between thc turnip abd cabbage, and the "head," so called, from which the leaves spring, is about the size of an ordinary turnip. When "tabled," we can form a better opinion of its ed? ibility. CALHOUN LITERARY SOCIETY WOFFOBD COLLEGE. Thc Committee-Messrs. H. E PARTRIDGE^ A. Cook SMITH, and D C.

HAJIONIG^lrlTBBjnrnNCI OCCASION. Accepting the kiud ioviUtioQ re? ceived, we participated ia the very interesting ex cr ci??? st Mayes ville, on Friday last, attendant apon tho laying of tho Corner Stone of the Lodge Building projected by Maycsville Lodge, No, 14L Wo regret that tho limited apace at our command does not permit ns to give tnoh a report as tho occasion merits. Members of Bishopvillo, Claremont and Sumter Lodges were present in con? siderable numbers, and the Mason io procession, under the marshalabip of Dr. J. W. HUDSON, was more imposing than any we have ever seen in this section. Tho assemblage too, of the citixeoi and fair ladies of that highly intelligent and respectable and always hospitable community, was large. The ecremonies were oonduoted by noting Grand Master MONTGOMERY MOSES, with Masonic beauty, solemnity and impressiveness. Capt. JOHN S. RICHARDSON, the chosen orator of tho occasion, delivered one of bis best speeohes, the musio, lead ly Mr. H. D. CORBETT, on the Melodeoo, was" full of inspiration, and the luxurious and abun? dant dinner, spread in the beautiful grove adjacent to the residence of our venera? ted friend, M. P. MATES, Esq. as, wo must say, only Salem eau do suoh things, put the whole company in fine spirits. The occasion loaves behind it pleasant recollections, and we beg to express our warm appreciation of the courtesies received. EXCHANGES. WESTERN METHODIST.-Wo are mueh pleased to receive and add this staunch Southern Christian paper to our exohange list, lt is published at Memphis, Tenn., and, until now, was entitled the Memphis and Arkansas Christian Advocate. The change of nome became necessary, among other reasons, in consequence of the increase in tho number of patronizing Conferen? ces. It is now the special organ of tho Memphis, North Mississippi, Arkansas, White River, Little Rook and Indian Mission Conferences. The Western Methodist is printed with beautiful olear type on a fine double sheet, and is con ducted with decided talent, editorially. W. C. JOUNSON, Editor. R. W. Blew & Co., Publishers. $2.50 per anuutn in advanoe, for single copies, or to clubs of ten or more, $2. AUGUSTA CHRONICLE AND SENTINEL -This is among the most valuable of our Georgia exchanges. As a nows and commercial paper, it has enterprise and reliability, and our merchants and business men generally will find it valu able, especially as, under recently es? tablished mail facilities, it would afford them as late intelligence as could be received through any other newspaper medium, and as thcro are now indications of some trauo springing up between Augusta a?d Sumter. We wero recent? ly permitted to form the acquuiutance of some of tho Chronicle and Sentinel staff, the remembrance- of which is among our pleasant recollections.. THE PRINTER-JOHN G REASON, publishor, W. D. THOMPSON, Editor, 75 Gold Street, N. Y., is truly beautiful speoimcn of typography, or of the printing art. Every pago and every lino of it shines in tho boauty of its print. CUBA. Congress has finally disposed of tho Cuban question, after much delny and much discussion, by tho passage of the following resolution : Resolved, That tho President is hero by authorised to remonstrate against the barbarous manner In which tho war in Cuba has beeb oobducted, and if ho shall deom it expedient to solicit tho co-operation of this or other Govern. monta in such measures as he may deem necessary to secure from both contend? ing parties an obsorvrnoo of the laws of war recognized by all civilized nations. [From the Carolina Spartan.] fVOFFOftD COLLEGE; SOPHOMORE EXHIBITION. Thc Exhibition in d?clamation by members of tho Sophomore Class, in the College Chapel on Tuesday night, 17th inst., was well attonded. lt must have been quito encouraging to the speakers to see so good au audience, and accord? ingly tho elocution of tho hour indica? ted that the young orators woro in a suitable frame of mind for tho exercises. In regard to tho performances there seems to be butene opinion, which is sufficiently flattering to tho young gen? tlemen. All present appeared to be highly pleased, and wo think tho de? monstrations of applaufco were not empty and meaningless, but exhibitions of meri? ted praise, We will only say in con? elusion that if Junior means any moro than Sophomoro in tho publio acclama? tions of the month, oomething in the superlative may be expected on tho night of tho 27th. j The following is a list of tho speak ore and their subjects. 1 "Tho Greatness of tho Human Mind."-Jas.

Tho manufacturers of tho North havo askod for and obtained the assistanco of tho National Gov? ernment until they havo becomo a burdon to the people at large, and the tax paid by the United States for tho support of tbeso manufacturers is equal to all tho other taxes put togethor.
