The effect of the drought on the Western corn and of the anny worm on the Southern Cotton is yet very uncertain. A rough guess may, however, bo made, which will give some general idea of ho amount of our agricul¬ tural products. Something of this kind we 'Ind in the Boston Commercial Bulletin, which is ordinari¬ ly very well informed on such subj ects. It com¬ piles the following table : CROPS IN I860.

Tho greatest advance, of course, has been m the price of cottou, but uearlv all tho more im¬ portant products sell for more now than in 18W). even on a gold basis, lu spite of protracted rains on the Atlantic slope, of tho army worm in thc Southern States, of drv weather tn the interior, and of the disturbed and unsettled condition of ten States, we are Mossed with a yield ot the great staples which will prevent lamine and serious suffering during the coming season in the South¬ ern States, and will make the more prosperous States in the North and West better able to meet the burdens of an unnecessarily oppressive tax¬ ation._ RAIN.-We have been visited in tho last two weeks by copious and protracted rains-winch have sobbed the earth and given a mid-winter ap¬ pearance to the streets and roads. It will not affect the corn crop, but it is feared will be injuri¬ ons to the cotton.-Fairfield Herald. ON THE WING. TUE FORTIFICATIONS OK CHARLESTON-THE APPEAB ANCE OF THE COUNTRY-THE CROPS-COLUMBIA, HEB IMPROVEMENTS, ETC., ETC. Oa leaving Charleston the first object that catches tho eye, after the few straggling housos in the suburbs arc passed, is the fortifications on tho Neck, known bettor, perhaps, aa the Line». Those who remember their neat and military appearance when first erected, tho closely-paved earth and smoothiy-shavod grass, would hardly recognize tho misshapen masses that now occupy their place. The plough has passed over the land, and scarcely a vestige of the engineering skill that framed and. superintended tho construction of those battories is now visible. The moat is dry and full of rank vegetation, while the batteries, bombproofs, traverses, «fcc, are all with verdure clad. Instead of tbe frowning heights that once defied tho invader, aro now to be seen green slopes, where tho wormy grain his scaled the works-oven planted its banner on tho outer walls. The utilitarianism of the present day has changed the tented field to a cabbage bed, and trained the potato and tho squash to grow where formerly "the sentry walked his lonely round." This is a world of change, but old Father Time works bilently, and it is seldom that such strides are made as those visible on the fortifications. But the iron horse is still speeding, and though its swiftness is not remarkable, it moves with sufficient celerity to make the trees glide by and relieve the country of that monotony always to be seen in a pine barron. The plantations ou the road are few and far between, and often for miles, as far as the prospect extends, there is but the same stretch of pine, relieved only hero and there by some swamp, which shows the different hue of tho cypress. If a country could be judged by its appearance as seen from a car window, there would bo few who would "sigh for the land of the cypress and pine;" for, in its primitive state, it oilers but little attraction to a settler. These lands, though not unaptly called pine bairens, are, however, capable of groat improvement, and, by a proper system of drainage and cultivation, can be made extremely productive. They are the waste places that are to be made glad, and the time is not far distant when the plough and the hoe will be employed to develop the resources of the soil. Everywhere throughout the country tho same unprecedented rains have boen experienced; the low lands are saturated, and in the woods the water has remained on the ground until small ponds are formed. Most of the plantations have been protected by drains, and tho damage to tho crops has been comparatively slight, though the I'cotton will be delayed several weeks as but few bolls are opened. No complaint of the worm was heard in the up-country, but tho experienced planters feared that the crop would be diminished at least ono quarter by the action of the rains. The cotton seen from the cars, and in the planta¬ tions visited, appeared to be strong and healthy: it .wes not over three foet high, except in places that had been well manured where it grew moro vigo¬ rously, and some was spoken of that was nearly seven feet high. The scrubby cotton is generally considered the most prolific, as the strength of the plant is developed in the increased number of bolls, and is not wasted in long stalks which yield but Little fruit. Along the whole line of the railroad tho effects of the rain are noticeable, but particularly in the swelled water courses, which bound madly along as if exalting in their strength. The Congaree Ki vor and the smaller streams that are crossed by the railroad are booming, and in some cases their banks are completely hidden by the water. No freshets are reported cn this route, bat in other sections of the country there arc rumors of bridges being swept away by the rise. A short distanco from Kingsville, and a few hundred yards from the railroad, is Stony Hi" Pnmtauuu, uow being cul- tiTatrd <ry iTi. H. L. JEFFERS, WllO Wail OI1Ü Of the prime mo. ors in the barbecue givenjn that section last week. Kir. JEFFERS has a model plantation, and though not employing more than thirty-five to forty hands, his fields show tho result of care, and promise an abundant harvest. On the plan¬ tation is a school for the benefit of the freedmen, which is taught by a colored woman from Charles¬ ton. Great interest is taken in the cause of edu¬ cation, and the attendance is regular. The ne¬ groes ore hired by ths month for money wages, which has been thought better than the contract system, while the school is an outside enterprise, aud is furnished at the expense of Mr. JEFFERS. JOINER'S, or the National Hotel, at Co¬ lombia, js a largo wooden building erect¬ ed tor the purpose, and situated near the Depots of th£vGreenville and Charleston Railroads. It is under tho control pf Mr. B. JOINER, and the weary traveller is at once mado t.q feel at home, as the establishment is provided iu even- respect for the accommodation of its guests. Although Columbia ie not a land flowing with milk and honey, the change to country fare is very re¬ freshing, while the pure air, clear wp ter and ab¬ sence of mosquitoes aro proofs that the seaboard has been left some distanco behind. Columbia still shows the ravagos of SHERMAN'S soldiery, and though Bomb improvements have been made and somo boasea rebuilt, the gap caused by tho burnt district is almost the samo. The first sign of Lifo on approaching the place is thc animation displayed by tho backmon at the Depot, they make the air vocal with their cries of this way for Nickerson's, Joiner's, The Nations) Hotel, Shiver House, ¿c., each of them promis¬ ing to take the passenger to his Hotel, without any extra charge. As the hackmeu of Columbia are a numerous body it appears singular that they should convey their passengers to and from the Depot free of charge, but it is even so, each Holsl .strives for the mastery,and this plan being Btarted by ono was soon made general, much to tho satis- isfaction of travellers who thereby save their greenbacks, Astroll through the streets of Columbia dc- monstates the fact that the people have not been idle, new buildings have been erected, and from the bustle and enterprise exhibited, tuoy evident¬ ly expect a good business season. Tho large white budding at the corner of Main and Bridge streets, known as BEDELL'S, is now occupied by that merchant, and tho large si oro on the drst floor is stocked with every variety of dry goods, Mr. C. A. BEDELL is an old merchant of Columbia, and, though one of the hoaviest sufferors by SHERMAN'S raid, has displayed a degree of energy that has caused him to rise shove his misfortunes. Higher up Main Bireet the same activity has been shown, and several huge stores aro now in procese ol erection. These are liuoly finished with iron fr onts, and when completed will bo among the ornaments of the city, The merchants of Colum¬ bia do not complain of inactivity, and though tho trade is by no means brisk the formers and treed mon from the country are continually visiting the city to purchase some indispensable article Mi-. C. F. JACKSON, woU known to the Charleston pub¬ lic, has a fine store on Main street, and disposes of his dry goods with tho same urbanity (hat marked his career on King street in days gone by. The Phoenix is still tho bird of Columbia, and exercises, under the control of friend SELBY, almost as much influence as the famed United States Eagle. It carries the news to every household, and like Noah's dove, brings a green back to its master. Born from the ashes of Columbia, tho Phoenix is connected with tho city by ties that are inseparable, and if it keeps pace with the march of progress now prevalent, will soon beco.nc one of the most influential dailies in tho State. Notwithstanding the fiery ordeal through which Columbia has passed, her people have displayed a degree of energy and activity that render the re¬ construction of tho city but a maltor of time. Tho progress alroady made is a proof that they aro determined to bo up and doing, whilo other im¬ provements arc contemplated that will even make the Capitol of tho State wuat she was before the torch was applied. THE AUGUSTA CONSTITUTIONALIST.is getting un¬ easy. It is afraid other and younger anti-recon- structionist journals will carry away tho Laurels which of right belong to it. It says : "Many joui- nala now equal or surpass us in denunciation of the wrong, and we can afford to seo theao Iresh battalions rush pell-mell into tho fray and teven go a length beyond us in the charge. It is no moro than lair that they should have a chance to ex¬ hibit their zeal and robustitude. Be this as it may, theso new recruits can never out-rival an old combatant in fervor and keen appreciation of pro¬ fessional respect. The Washington Star says : "The chances of General WARD H. LAMON, late District Marshal, ate fcaid to be exceedingly good for tho Postmaster Generalship, should there be a chango there. LETTER FROM THE COAST. [l'KOM OUK OWN COBBE8POXDENT.] JOHN'S ISLAND, S. C., August 27. Editor Charleston Daily News: Tho fame of MORRISON has roached us. N< through the medium of the newspaper-for thi convenient commodity is scarcely ever seen c the Island-but borne on the wings of the whii periné winds. Originals like tho zealous M. ai not altogether confined to the limits of your firi gapped city ; they are scattered all over this broa land, only awaiting opportunities to draw thei out. "No Jacks here I" for instance, has passe into a by-word with us of this lonely isle, and made use of on every occasion, in season and ot of it, varied only now and then by the more mi sical, "No Neds now." I suppose, like other foo ie h snatches of speech, they will have their da) Who does net remember "bully boy with tho glas eye," of years ago, and other notions of an equal! senseless stamp ? "Bully" is still kicking, and th next lexicographer will have to furnish a standar definition for it. The occasion that brought these first montioue sayings to life, dates from tho days of regist rat io: on the Island. The aspiring citizen, announcinj it as his well weighed intention to be knowi henceforth and forever after under tho pithy ap pellation of Jack Joyfoot, was instantly lowerei in his lofty design, before he could get the cogno men half out, by a stentorian, "No Jacks here ! And if ever a republican brother desired to flgur in the annals of his country's history as Mr. Net Mixworth, he was sure to be woefully annihilate* by a deprecating and awe-inspiring, "No Ned now!" The poor Jacks, and Joes, and Ned seemed certainly sadly discomfitted, and wen a most wretched looking set of citizen; indeed. All Harrys were ruthlessly swept fron tho face of nature, and the Toneys banished th earth. The Taffeys just managed to pass the try ing ordeal. For it was concluded, that, a mai being christened Tarley-as all Taffeys were ant they knew it, being present at the time-and n< other name being available without researches ii profane history, why, Tarley would do, the Taf foys might pass, and the Taffeys came off tri umphant. And lastly, on this head, will all Africi hereby take notice that if some heir of a kingdom province, dukedom, military district, town, villi or plantation, in those miasmatic regions is so journing among us, his identity, registered might be affected by this manipula, n of uamet of which Congress; has not taken -P action neither is there any record in the nar:.* arch i vet thereof. Another week of almost incessant ti hat passed, leaving the roads in tho lower \ ts ol the island in a most wretched condition, wii.iout bridges and in many instances converted inte water courses. The very scanty drainage of the plantations begins to tell on the fields. Many ol the cotton plants in the bottom lands are cither entirely ruined, or run up into red-shanked and bare umbrella cottons, plants which boar a sparse fruit close to the top. The best cotton fields, under tho old and thorough system of working, are fast becoming wastes and fever swamps for want ol drainage. Too much land is skipped over or merely scratched ; the work on the cotton lands and in fact all lands, in many cases, was not began early enough, owing in a great degree to the tardi¬ ness of owners, to be candid, in making oontraots, and lacks the close attention to detail to put it in condition to produce. Fertilizers are not known here. The rioh marsh ma¬ nure, which only requires to be moved a short dis¬ tance, has not been made use of. Two of the natu¬ ral advantages of the island have been turned to Ac¬ count. The heavy June rains injured our cotton to a very limited extent. Some of the most forward fields show a mik v to be sure, but a good deal of that must be laid to the grasa, which, not being removed in time, burned the cotton and destroyed tho lower loaves as well as fruit. Passing along the high road, I noticed that in ono field out of three the grass is at odds with the cotton. In¬ telligent and industrious colored men will point you out particular fields on every plantation, neglected and run to grass, as belonging to bad niggers, as they have it. They say these drones refuse to be advised, and preter running to town and tp speeches to boeing their fields. I myself have met those that argued that grass had noth¬ ing whatever to do with the prosperity of the cot¬ ton plant, and that the only reason why it was kept out of tho land was to make it look more "deastant." I have to encounter tho colored man yet, who, in his own opinion, did not know all about plantation work and management, or whose crop was not the best. Yet it needs only the use of one's uyos to be satisfied of the contrary. The so-called foremen on the places are hated accord¬ ing to their attempts, at advice and suggestions. Evory man seems ready with sorno twisted idea of tho Bureau to defend his right to do things innis own slouchy way; and if tho coming winter and spring will show that the colored people of John's feland need the assistance of Northern benevo¬ lence as much SB ever, the question as to the use¬ fulness of that institution will be seriously asked. Unjust and unreasonable as the old system of labor has been, we have, since cutting loose from it, seep nothing but a helpless drifting into au irregular .und unstable channel. The colored man's idea of the necessity qf work is in many in¬ stances confined to the raising of com and sweet potatoes. In spite of contracts, he, on this island, is Badly remiss ii) the thorough culture of bis cot¬ ton fields, even where no excuse for lack of provi¬ sions can bo advanced. There is a general and eager inquiry as to tho rate of interest at which capital might be bad on the admission (probable; of the State in the Union, and if there is any likelihood of its finding its way southward in time to benefit tho planting interest. The alarming per centage now charged is nothing short of ruinous. And although tho Wealthy planter of the lowland i was mulot in no inconsiderable amount a in former days for lack of proper business qualification and application, tho present rato of interest, the extreme scarcity of money, and the consequent tardiness of factor and grocer in town, begin to open his oyes to the moving causes of all thin, The New York and foreign money articles are closely scanned, and the question asked if money is to be had at tho North at 4 and 5 per cent., and is actually glutting tho European markets, being refused at Amster¬ dam at Hi, and oven lower, what reasons exist to make it so scaroe hero, where millions of dollars in real estate are ready to be pledged for its highly remunerative use. Wo can raise that which both the North and Europe, those two pursy capitalists, eagerly want. Will they not, in their own inter¬ est, supply us the means to raise it ? Will they not relax thoir unfounded suapioions of foul deal¬ ings ? Willing to pay a round rato of interest, wo want money, when we know we can turn it to good account-that is. next winter. And now ia the timo to say it. Labor billa will have to be mot with cash. The freedman will be In a position to demand that. Having made his own corn-at least enough to last him till high summer-tho banker will have to step in i.istoadof tho grocor. Labor will want to buy its own provisions, and your supply stores will bo deserted. Tho proverbial improvident of thc nocro will demaud thc means of investments other than for the necessaries of life. Tho thing which paid your labor this season he has. Perhaps, late in tho anni* mer or at cotton picking time, he will be ready to return to thia year's system again, and exchange meal for muscle; but so long na his corn and pota¬ toes keep him from want, IIÍB labor can only bo had for money. A long credit- at your morohant's store will do your work no longer. Monoy, there- lore, must be mado to sock our cities, mado acces¬ sible to tho industrial interests, and tho now creaky grooves of industry will soon wear smooth and sing the pleasant songs of prosperity, Thore is a wild cry of caterpillar from one ond of the ialand to tho other. Three weeks ago we were similarly regaled. An old planter, and gallant officer in the defenco of this neighborhood, was so much deceived then by rumors coming in thick, fast and furious upon bini, that he offered to hot on their being in his own field, although he had not soen them there. Recollecting in Beason, how¬ ever, that lie might compromiso Ilia standing in church, he did not commit himself, and saved both reputation and money. The laugh was against him then; to-day I found in his field a thousand growing cotton worms. On my way home I turned into several fields, and saw with dismay the unre¬ lenting work of these hungry insects. Fields that were a standing exception to the reigning rule of in¬ dolence, are fast going to destruction. One day suf¬ fices to turn them.prosperouB and promising.into on ' unsightly collection of grayish, green skeletons. It makes one's heart sore to lookjat it. Riding into another field whore thor ravagos aro jUBt begin¬ ning, Inoticod that theo domor.8 seem to rally as for mutual protection gainst an attack in round columns-say in circunferonoo ten to fifteen foot. They seem to movo togther as by concert, throw¬ ing out their skirmishes as we human half-de¬ mons did three years gno by. Wherever they gu their work is done on? too thoroughly, leaving nothing but bare Btalkand ribs of foliage in their track. What & wail will ther go up from the Soutll ¡f this plague is wide-sprad. How unfit an accom¬ paniment to the joyou/sonnis 0f the bells of tho Northern thanksgiving day. Little did I dream when I commenced teso jottings that 1 could stand out against the uiversal report no longer. I was an unbeliever, bw my conviction is made doubly sure by the sig! of tho caterpillar in its different stages of deviopmciit before me. The shiny black cocoon, tree tho length of a cotton seed, already clings tone leaf with characteristic tenacity. From it a mall green worm is born, beautifuliy marked wii black and white spots. As it gains itsfull grown, these spots only remain to decorato a yellowislsrripo, a sixteenth of an inch wide on each side f the caterpillar, while a deep black band runs own its back, intersected lengthwise by exquisitewbito stripes, one, a very fine silky one, being exstly in tho oentre. Thero aro five or these dolioafly interlacing linoa alto¬ gether-two coarser ont on each side being close together in pairs, and tb fifth one equally diatunt from the others, and in te middle. Experienced islanders can tell their psonce in a field by the faint honey smell wbici they diffuse. And this exceedingly handsome orm is the rapacious de¬ stroyer of a whole yes's anxious shifting and work.

The Crops of 1867.It is yet too early to make anything like
accurate calculations as to tho amount of tnecrops of tins season. The effect of the droughton the Western corn and of the anny worm on theSouthern Cotton is yet very uncertain. A roughguess may, however, bo made, which will givesome general idea of ho amount of our agricul¬tural products. Something of this kind we 'Ind inthe Boston Commercial Bulletin, which is ordinari¬ly very well informed on such subj ects. It com¬
piles the following table :CROPS IN I860. ESTIMATED CHOPS IN 18C7.

weeks by copious and protracted rains-winchhave sobbed the earth and given a mid-winter ap¬pearance to the streets and roads. It will notaffect the corn crop, but it is feared will be injuri¬ons to the cotton.-Fairfield Herald.
ON THE WING.
TUE FORTIFICATIONS OK CHARLESTON-THE APPEAB
ANCE OF THE COUNTRY-THE CROPS-COLUMBIA,HEB IMPROVEMENTS, ETC., ETC.Oa leaving Charleston the first object that
catches tho eye, after the few straggling housos inthe suburbs arc passed, is the fortifications on thoNeck, known bettor, perhaps, aa the Line». Thosewho remember their neat and military appearancewhen first erected, tho closely-paved earth and
smoothiy-shavod grass, would hardly recognizetho misshapen masses that now occupy theirplace. The plough has passed over the land, andscarcely a vestige of the engineering skill thatframed and. superintended tho construction ofthose battories is now visible. The moat is dryand full of rank vegetation, while the batteries,bombproofs, traverses, «fcc, are all with verdureclad. Instead of tbe frowning heights that once
defied tho invader, aro now to be seen greenslopes, where tho wormy grain his scaled theworks-oven planted its banner on tho outer walls.The utilitarianism of the present day has changedthe tented field to a cabbage bed, and trained thepotato and tho squash to grow where formerly"the sentry walked his lonely round." This is a
world of change, but old Father Time worksbilently, and it is seldom that such strides are
made as those visible on the fortifications.But the iron horse is still speeding, and though
its swiftness is not remarkable, it moves withsufficient celerity to make the trees glide by andrelieve the country of that monotony always to beseen in a pine barron. The plantations ou theroad are few and far between, and often for miles,as far as the prospect extends, there is but thesame stretch of pine, relieved only hero and there
by some swamp, which shows the different hue oftho cypress. If a country could be judged by its
appearance as seen from a car window, therewould bo few who would "sigh for the land of the
cypress and pine;" for, in its primitive state, itoilers but little attraction to a settler. Theselands, though not unaptly called pine bairens, are,however, capable of groat improvement, and, by a
proper system of drainage and cultivation, can bemade extremely productive. They are the waste
places that are to be made glad, and the time is notfar distant when the plough and the hoe will be
employed to develop the resources of the soil.Everywhere throughout the country tho same
unprecedented rains have boen experienced; thelow lands are saturated, and in the woods thewater has remained on the ground until smallponds are formed. Most of the plantations havebeen protected by drains, and tho damage to tho
crops has been comparatively slight, though the
I'cotton will be delayed several weeks as but fewbolls are opened. No complaint of the worm was
heard in the up-country, but tho experiencedplanters feared that the crop would be diminishedat least ono quarter by the action of the rains.The cotton seen from the cars, and in the planta¬tions visited, appeared to be strong and healthy: it.wes not over three foet high, except in places thathad been well manured where it grew moro vigo¬rously, and some was spoken of that was nearlyseven feet high. The scrubby cotton is generallyconsidered the most prolific, as the strength ofthe plant is developed in the increased number of
bolls, and is not wasted in long stalks which yieldbut Little fruit.Along the whole line of the railroad tho effects
of the rain are noticeable, but particularly in theswelled water courses, which bound madly alongas if exalting in their strength. The CongareeKi vor and the smaller streams that are crossed bythe railroad are booming, and in some cases theirbanks are completely hidden by the water. Nofreshets are reported cn this route, bat in othersections of the country there arc rumors of bridgesbeing swept away by the rise. A short distancofrom Kingsville, and a few hundred yards from therailroad, is Stony Hi" Pnmtauuu, uow being cul-tiTatrd <ry iTi. H. L. JEFFERS, WllO Wail OI1Ü Of the
prime mo. ors in the barbecue givenjn that sectionlast week. Kir. JEFFERS has a model plantation,and though not employing more than thirty-fiveto forty hands, his fields show tho result of care,and promise an abundant harvest. On the plan¬tation is a school for the benefit of the freedmen,which is taught by a colored woman from Charles¬ton. Great interest is taken in the cause of edu¬cation, and the attendance is regular. The ne¬
groes ore hired by ths month for money wages,which has been thought better than the contractsystem, while the school is an outside enterprise,aud is furnished at the expense of Mr. JEFFERS.
JOINER'S, or the National Hotel, at Co¬
lombia, js a largo wooden building erect¬ed tor the purpose, and situated near
the Depots of th£vGreenville and CharlestonRailroads. It is under tho control pf Mr. B.
JOINER, and the weary traveller is at once mado t.qfeel at home, as the establishment is provided iueven- respect for the accommodation of its guests.Although Columbia ie not a land flowing with milkand honey, the change to country fare is very re¬
freshing, while the pure air, clear wp ter and ab¬sence of mosquitoes aro proofs that the seaboardhas been left some distanco behind.Columbia still shows the ravagos of SHERMAN'S
soldiery, and though Bomb improvements havebeen made and somo boasea rebuilt, the gapcaused by tho burnt district is almost the samo.
The first sign of Lifo on approaching the place is
thc animation displayed by tho backmon at the
Depot, they make the air vocal with their cries ofthis way for Nickerson's, Joiner's, The Nations)Hotel, Shiver House, ¿c., each of them promis¬ing to take the passenger to his Hotel, without
any extra charge. As the hackmeu of Columbiaare a numerous body it appears singular that theyshould convey their passengers to and from the
Depot free of charge, but it is even so, each Holsl.strives for the mastery,and this plan being Btartedby ono was soon made general, much to tho satis-isfaction of travellers who thereby save their
greenbacks,Astroll through the streets of Columbia dc-
monstates the fact that the people have not been
idle, new buildings have been erected, and fromthe bustle and enterprise exhibited, tuoy evident¬
ly expect a good business season. Tho large white
budding at the corner of Main and Bridge streets,known as BEDELL'S, is now occupied by that
merchant, and tho large si oro on the drst floor is
stocked with every variety of dry goods, Mr. C.A. BEDELL is an old merchant of Columbia, and,though one of the hoaviest sufferors by SHERMAN'S
raid, has displayed a degree of energy that hascaused him to rise shove his misfortunes.Higher up Main Bireet the same activity has
been shown, and several huge stores aro now in
procese ol erection. These are liuoly finished withiron fronts, and when completed will bo among theornaments of the city, The merchants of Colum¬bia do not complain of inactivity, and though tho
trade is by no means brisk the formers and treed
mon from the country are continually visiting the
city to purchase some indispensable article Mi-.
C. F. JACKSON, woU known to the Charleston pub¬lic, has a fine store on Main street, and disposes of
his dry goods with tho same urbanity (hat markedhis career on King street in days gone by.The Phoenix is still tho bird of Columbia, and
exercises, under the control of friend SELBY, almost
as much influence as the famed United States
Eagle. It carries the news to every household,and like Noah's dove, brings a green back to its
master. Born from the ashes of Columbia, tho
Phoenix is connected with tho city by ties that are
inseparable, and if it keeps pace with the march
of progress now prevalent, will soon beco.nc one
of the most influential dailies in tho State.Notwithstanding the fiery ordeal through which
Columbia has passed, her people have displayed a
degree of energy and activity that render the re¬
construction of tho city but a maltor of time. Tho
progress alroady made is a proof that they aro
determined to bo up and doing, whilo other im¬
provements arc contemplated that will even make
the Capitol of tho State wuat she was before the
torch was applied.
THE AUGUSTA CONSTITUTIONALIST.is getting un¬
easy. It is afraid other and younger anti-recon-structionist journals will carry away tho Laurelswhich of right belong to it. It says : "Many joui-nala now equal or surpass us in denunciation of
the wrong, and we can afford to seo theao Ireshbattalions rush pell-mell into tho fray and teven goa length beyond us in the charge. It is no moro
than lair that they should have a chance to ex¬
hibit their zeal and robustitude. Be this as it
may, theso new recruits can never out-rival an oldcombatant in fervor and keen appreciation of pro¬fessional respect.
The Washington Star says : "The chances ofGeneral WARD H. LAMON, late District Marshal,ate fcaid to be exceedingly good for tho PostmasterGeneralship, should there be a chango there.
LETTER FROM THE COAST.
[l'KOM OUK OWN COBBE8POXDENT.]
JOHN'S ISLAND, S. C., August 27.Editor Charleston Daily News:Tho fame of MORRISON has roached us. N<
through the medium of the newspaper-for thiconvenient commodity is scarcely ever seen c
the Island-but borne on the wings of the whiiperiné winds. Originals like tho zealous M. ai
not altogether confined to the limits of your firigapped city ; they are scattered all over this broaland, only awaiting opportunities to draw theiout. "No Jacks here I" for instance, has passeinto a by-word with us of this lonely isle, andmade use of on every occasion, in season and ot
of it, varied only now and then by the more mi
sical, "No Neds now." I suppose, like other fooie h snatches of speech, they will have their da)Who does net remember "bully boy with tho glaseye," of years ago, and other notions of an equal!senseless stamp ? "Bully" is still kicking, and thnext lexicographer will have to furnish a standardefinition for it.The occasion that brought these first montioue
sayings to life, dates from tho days of regist rat io:on the Island. The aspiring citizen, announcinjit as his well weighed intention to be knowihenceforth and forever after under tho pithy appellation of Jack Joyfoot, was instantly lowereiin his lofty design, before he could get the cognomen half out, by a stentorian, "No Jacks here !And if ever a republican brother desired to flgurin the annals of his country's history as Mr. NetMixworth, he was sure to be woefully annihilate*by a deprecating and awe-inspiring, "No Nednow!" The poor Jacks, and Joes, and Nedseemed certainly sadly discomfitted, and wen
a most wretched looking set of citizen;indeed. All Harrys were ruthlessly swept frontho face of nature, and the Toneys banished thearth. The Taffeys just managed to pass the trying ordeal. For it was concluded, that, a mai
being christened Tarley-as all Taffeys were ant
they knew it, being present at the time-and n<
other name being available without researches iiprofane history, why, Tarley would do, the Taffoys might pass, and the Taffeys came off triumphant. And lastly, on this head, will all Africihereby take notice that if some heir of a kingdomprovince, dukedom, military district, town, villior plantation, in those miasmatic regions is so
journing among us, his identity, registeredmight be affected by this manipula, n of uamet
of which Congress; has not taken -P actionneither is there any record in the nar:.* arch i vetthereof.Another week of almost incessant ti hat
passed, leaving the roads in tho lower \ ts olthe island in a most wretched condition, wii.ioutbridges and in many instances converted intewater courses. The very scanty drainage of theplantations begins to tell on the fields. Many olthe cotton plants in the bottom lands are cither
entirely ruined, or run up into red-shanked andbare umbrella cottons, plants which boar a sparsefruit close to the top. The best cotton fields, undertho old and thorough system of working, are fastbecoming wastes and fever swamps for want oldrainage. Too much land is skipped over or
merely scratched ; the work on the cotton landsand in fact all lands, in many cases, was not beganearly enough, owing in a great degree to the tardi¬ness of owners, to be candid, in making oontraots,and lacks the close attention to detail to putit in condition to produce. Fertilizers are
not known here. The rioh marsh ma¬
nure, which only requires to be moved a short dis¬tance, has not been made use of. Two of the natu¬ral advantages of the island have been turned to Ac¬count. The heavy June rains injured our cotton toa very limited extent. Some of the most forwardfields show amik v to be sure, but a good deal ofthat must be laid to the grasa, which, not beingremoved in time, burned the cotton and destroyedtho lower loaves as well as fruit. Passing alongthe high road, I noticed that in ono field out ofthree the grass is at odds with the cotton. In¬telligent and industrious colored men will pointyou out particular fields on every plantation,neglected and run to grass, as belonging to badniggers, as they have it. They say these dronesrefuse to be advised, and preter running to townand tp speeches to boeing their fields. I myselfhave met those that argued that grass had noth¬ing whatever to do with the prosperity of the cot¬ton plant, and that the only reason why it waskept out of tho land was to make it look more
"deastant." I have to encounter tho colored man
yet, who, in his own opinion, did not know allabout plantation work and management, or whosecrop was not the best. Yet it needs only the use
of one's uyos to be satisfied of the contrary. Theso-called foremen on the places are hated accord¬ing to their attempts, at advice and suggestions.Evory man seems ready with sorno twisted idea oftho Bureau to defend his right to do things innisown slouchy way; and if tho coming winter andspring will show that the colored people of John'sfeland need the assistance of Northern benevo¬lence as much SB ever, the question as to the use¬
fulness of that institution will be seriously asked.Unjust and unreasonable as the old system oflabor has been, we have, since cutting loose fromit, seep nothing but a helpless drifting into auirregular .und unstable channel. The coloredman's idea of the necessity qf work is in many in¬stances confined to the raising of com and sweet
potatoes. In spite of contracts, he, on this island,is Badly remiss ii) the thorough culture of bis cot¬ton fields, even where no excuse for lack of provi¬sions can bo advanced.There is a general and eager inquiry as to tho
rate of interest at which capital might be bad on
the admission (probable; of the State in theUnion, and if there is any likelihood of its findingits way southward in time to benefit tho plantinginterest. The alarming per centage now chargedis nothing short of ruinous. And although thoWealthy planter of the lowland i was mulot in no
inconsiderable amount a in former days for lack ofproper business qualification and application, thopresent rato of interest, the extreme scarcity ofmoney, and the consequent tardiness of factor andgrocer in town, begin to open his oyes to themoving causes of all thin, The New York andforeign money articles are closely scanned, andthe question asked if money is to be had at thoNorth at 4 and 5 per cent., and is actually gluttingtho European markets, being refused at Amster¬dam at Hi, and oven lower, what reasons exist tomake it so scaroe hero, where millions of dollarsin real estate are ready to be pledged for its highlyremunerative use. Wo can raise that which boththe North and Europe, those two pursy capitalists,eagerly want. Will they not, in their own inter¬est, supply us the means to raise it ? Will theynot relax thoir unfounded suapioions of foul deal¬ings ? Willing to pay a round rato of interest, wowant money, when we know we can turn it to goodaccount-that is. next winter. And now ia thetimo to say it. Labor billa will have to be motwith cash. The freedman will be In a position todemand that. Having made his own corn-atleast enough to last him till high summer-thobanker will have to step in i.istoadof tho grocor.Labor will want to buy its own provisions, andyour supply stores will bo deserted.Tho proverbial improvident of thc nocro will
demaud thc means of investments other than forthe necessaries of life. Tho thing which paid yourlabor this season he has. Perhaps, late in tho anni*
mer or at cotton picking time, he will be ready toreturn to thia year's system again, and exchangemeal for muscle; but so long na his corn and pota¬toes keep him from want, IIÍB labor can only bohad for money. A long credit- at your morohant'sstore will do your work no longer. Monoy, there-lore, must be mado to sock our cities, mado acces¬
sible to tho industrial interests, and tho now
creaky grooves of industry will soon wear smoothand sing the pleasant songs of prosperity,Thore is a wild cry of caterpillar from one ond
of the ialand to tho other. Three weeks ago we
were similarly regaled. An old planter, and gallantofficer in the defenco of this neighborhood, was
so much deceived then by rumors coming in thick,fast and furious upon bini, that he offered to hoton their being in his own field, although he hadnot soen them there. Recollecting in Beason, how¬ever, that lie might compromiso Ilia standing inchurch, he did not commit himself, and saved bothreputation and money. The laugh was againsthim then; to-day I found in his field a thousandgrowing cotton worms. On my way home I turnedinto several fields, and saw with dismay the unre¬
lenting work of these hungry insects. Fields thatwere a standing exception to the reigning rule of in¬dolence, are fast going to destruction. One day suf¬fices to turn them.prosperouB and promising.into on
' unsightly collection of grayish, green skeletons.It makes one's heart sore to lookjat it. Riding into
another field whore thor ravagos aro jUBt begin¬ning, Inoticod that theo domor.8 seem to rally asfor mutual protection gainst an attack in roundcolumns-say in circunferonoo ten to fifteen foot.They seem to movo togther as by concert, throw¬ing out their skirmishes as we human half-de¬mons did three years gno by. Wherever they gutheir work is done on? too thoroughly, leavingnothing but bare Btalkand ribs of foliage in theirtrack.What & wail will ther go up from the Soutll ¡f
this plague is wide-sprad. How unfit an accom¬
paniment to the joyou/sonnis 0f the bells of thoNorthern thanksgiving day. Little did I dreamwhen I commenced teso jottings that 1 couldstand out against the uiversal report no longer.I was an unbeliever, bw my conviction is madedoubly sure by the sig! of tho caterpillar in itsdifferent stages of deviopmciit before me. Theshiny black cocoon, tree tho length of a cottonseed, already clings tone leaf with characteristictenacity. From it a mall green worm is born,beautifuliy marked wii black and white spots.As it gains itsfull grown, these spots only remainto decorato a yellowislsrripo, a sixteenth of an
inch wide on each side f the caterpillar, while a
deep black band runs own its back, intersectedlengthwise by exquisitewbito stripes, one, a veryfine silky one, being exstly in tho oentre. Theroaro five or these dolioafly interlacing linoa alto¬gether-two coarser ont on each side being closetogether in pairs, and tb fifth one equally diatuntfrom the others, and in te middle. Experiencedislanders can tell their psonce in a field by the
faint honey smell wbici they diffuse. And thisexceedingly handsome orm is the rapacious de¬
stroyer of a whole yes's anxious shifting andwork. Can Professor IOASSIZ explain how farits beauty makes up foche immeasurable depthof woe it prepares? A.
