CROPS AM) WHdTICS. FoKK OF EniRTO, I ,1BI\RTY Tuv.-v HII', July 1st 1880. Dtithr Titties : I thought a word from this section might In- of interest to your many readers. The crops in this section arc look ing very well, considering the ilry and hoi weather, though very hack ward for the first of July. Wheat is a (complete failure. Oats-?very good c rop. Now, Mr. Editor, as the lime for our County nominating Convention is near at hand, I thought I would like to say some thing about Some of i he aspirants, as several have already Iteen announced. As farmers, in LS78, 1 tliink we were too exclusive in our County nominations, saying WO would not take any law or physic in ours. 1 think. Sir. Editor, we should mix a little this time. I see from the papers, Gen. Jas. p. Mar is recommended as a candidate for Stale Senator, and I heartily concur, and think hint the most popular man in the < oiinVy for that position: also Dr. J. C. llolinan for representative, and I would add another name with Dr. prefixed,.J. W. Summers of* Low er St. Matthews. With these two M. D's. on our ticket as representa tives, the fanners interest would he in good hands. The writer has been acquainted with Dr. S. ever since we "went to the same log school house to gether, and know him to be an ener getic successful farmer, and in every way qunlilied, and I hope he may he announced I>y his Club, and nominat ed hy t he ( 'onvont ion. In reference to the aspirants for Clerk of -Court, 1 think the claims of Mr. Robert Copes (hebest, if materi al services rendered the County he any considerat ion. Now, M r. Editor, the last, though I not the least, is the announcement, that I and your many friends rejoiced to se?'. that the unmc.nl* Mr. S. K. Melliehamp is put forward for School < 'oinuiissionur, as no one hut an experienced teacher can know 111?? wants of a public school. Mr. Editor, is there no remedy Ibi <>ur present free school system? It has been tried and found wanting? as the poet said, "Hollow?hollow, all is hollow."1 I mii>t close sis I am only prepar ing food for t he waste basket. Very Respectfully, A Faumki:. .lOIfiS IIEPXEIPS LUCK. .lohn Ilepner of Reading was horn in Germany in ISl?. In 18-10 he married. M is wife lived eight years, and bore him seventeen children. She presented him with twins in the first year <>f their marriage. The next year another pair of twins was born. Every year for four years thereafter Mrs. Ilepner gave birth to triplets. The seventh year was sign alized by the birth of only one child to the couple. Mr. Ilepner's seven teen children, thooldest only 7years ] of age. were taken in charge three months after .Mrs. Ilepner's death by n young German lady, who became the second Mrs. Ilepner. The first Mrs. Ilepner died in February, 18-18. IuFehiuhry, L8-10, Ini*successor pre sented Mr. Ilepner with a boy. Oil Christmas Day of the same year the nineteenth child was added to the Ilepner's flock. Oliee a year for live years afterward the family was increased by twins, and for three years after that one child a year was born to Mr. Ilepner. The last three were born in this country, Mr. Hep tier having emigrated from < icrinsiny in 18.VI. In l.s-"?7 hi^ wife died, hav ingbeen married nine years. Of the thirty-two children thai had been born to Ilepner. twelve had diel. In LS?8 he married a widow with one child. The third wife bore him nine children in ten years, by single births. Mr. I lepucr and his hist wife are still living. None of his lirst set of seventeen children survive, d u o of the second wife's lifteen are.alive, and three of the third wife's nine. AVilb the step child that the last marriage added to the list, forty two children have called John Ilepner father. We clip the following from the '?Stall- Riiildcr:" "As one goes from Columbia to wards Charleston on I be South Caro linn Railroad, ho sees a growing town in the upper portion of Orangehurg county, a few miles below Fort Motte, which is now called St. Matthews, formerly Lowisvillo. It was our good fortune recently, to spend :t few hours there and were Surprised t" learn the amount nfbusiness that is done, ami the rapid improvement of the place. It ison an elevated locn lion, very healthy, and 'thecentre of a line section of the surrounding county." A man was sawing wood yesterday afternoon in a backyard.

"?lohn," said his wife, "if you light Injuns as well its you saw wood and support your family, it would lake one hundred and eight ecu like you to capture one squaw, and you'd have to catch her w hen she had I he ague a ml throw pepper in her eyes." John went back to the wood pile wondering who told his wife nil a I mil I him. A DESERTED TRIBUTE. The- niiiili plank in the National Democratic platform adopted at Cin cinnati reads as follows: ? The resolution of Samuel d.
