A Horrible StoryThe Victim TV anting to Mary his Brother's Daughter. News and Courier. Cheraw, March 15.--The facts con nected with the fratricide referred to in a dispatch published in the News and Courier, on Tuesday, so far as can be ascertained are as follows: The parties thereto, William and John Ba ker, are brothers, the former a young man and widower who has been paying attention to the daughter of the elder Baker with a view to matrimony, which suit was not looked upon favorably by the father of the girl. They met one night last week and it appears that one or both had been imbibing quite freely, and during the meeting at the elder Baker's house the younger brother ob tained the elder's revolver and fired it off in the house. When remonstrated with for the act and being asked what be meant, he again fired, and exclaimed that that was what he meant. Whether the latter or either of the shots was aimed at the prisoner 1 have not learn ed definitely. A scuffle then ensued, and knives were used quite freely, the younger brother receiving a wound or wounds in the breast, "that caused al most instant death, and not a shot from a pistol as the first report stated. John Baker, the slayer, immediately surren dered, himself to the authorities, when it was found that he had received seve ral wounds on his person from a knife, but although painfully injured he is not dangerously so. The prisoner claims that he acted in self-defence from the beginning to the last of the unfortu nate difficulty. The father of the two brothers, it is rumored, has declared his intention to push the prosecution, but whether there is any truth in the re port I am unable to say. Theverdiet of the jury of inquest was in accord ance with the above facts. W. Garden Seed for the South. Cor. Columbia Register. Union, S. C, March 5, 1832. A few days of suushine have added very much to the pleasantness of the outlook. There has been a very marked decline in street loafers and hangers-on about those cancers of society, tue liquor sa loons. The "gee haw" of the ploughman is again heard in the iand. The irrepres sible small boy isut with his shotgun after anything that wears feathers; while among the' fair sex there is a brisk demand for old gloves, sun-bonnets, rakes, hoes, &c, as the accompani ments of the usual spring epidemic. I'liat lull moon in wiarcb inevitably brings to the front all believers in signs, and potato planting becomes a f uroi for a season.' Passing by a "cannie Scot's" garden the other day, we noticed he was ploughing up his last year's po!a;o ground and finding plenty of good seed potatoes. Other people are paying S2 25 a bush el. Why not save our ovn seed pota toes? Yet, while asking that question, one might go even fuither and ask, why not save all our garden seed? Al al most every store we pass we see flam ing placards of Buist's, Ferry's, Sibley', Peter Henderson's, Landreth.s and oth er seedsmen from Marblehe ad, Mas?., to Wisconsin. Immense fortunes inve been made by these seedsmen by selling seed to Southern people. They sport magnifi cent establishments, employ hundreds of hands to grow seeds in a cold climate for Southern gardeners and we com p of being poor! Nor is this the worst of it; for, in ad dition to this supply of seeds from our own seedsmen, a million dollars' worth of horticultural seeds are annually im ported by these seedsmen from Europe. There is no reason- why every gardener at the Soutli should not grow the great er part of his own seed. With proper care in selection and cultivation he could produce as good a variety and much better adapted to his climate than seeds grown in Massachusetts or Wisconsin. But this i3 not the only evil resulting from the introduction of seeds grown in other sections; we introduce with them a multitude of pests in the way of weeds and grasses and insects. What gardener has not been startled by the appearance every now and then of some stranger who asserts his rights to naturalization? How many new sects have been introduced it wouldbe' difficult to say. Every gardener oriar mer runs foui of some new comer ev erv ver r. "It'will not be long . before we will make the acquaintance of the potato beetle, the grasshopper of the Wpt,and all the other pests which follow the progressive and aggressive footiteps of Yankee civilization. A writer in the Journal of the Amer ican Agricultural Association gives us the following interesting statistics in relation to the vitality of seeds selected from a seed farm .North. Seeds in 100 capable of germinating, Averasre: Salsafv 14. onions 47, cab bage 46, lettuce 57, carrot 51, beet DarsniD 32. cucumber 50. squash 28, re clover 82 lucerne 87, white clover 88, orchard grass 50, oat grass 11, timothy 60, red top 14, Kentucky blue grass 4, Italian rye grass 21, Hungarian grass 56. The defective vitality of seeds, however, is nothing, when compared to the pests introduced with them, which are almost certain to live and flourish. The same writer, speaking of this mat ter, Bays: From a lot of commercial red clover seed a carefully drawn sam ple of two ounces was taken which contained seed of red clover 94 per cent., impurities 6 per cent. Of .the 94 per cent, pure seed 60per cent, were inca pable of germinating The impurities consisted of sand, chaff and other seeds a pound containing not less than 14, 400 foreign seeds, 44 distinct species, as follows: "Thistle, horse sorrel, sheep sorrel, milkweed, dandelion, knotweed, bottle grass, knowsel campion, spurry, starwort, cross-rabbit clover, Swedish clover, zig-zag clover, hop clover, white clover, valerian, speedwell, blue violet, pansy, rib grass plantain, burdock, dar-1 nel and crane s dm, goose grass, spunge, blue weed, wild carrot, ox-eye. daisy, pigweed, chickweed, water cress, sand wort, dodder, pimpernell and alyssum. And this sample of clover, the writer says, is of average quality. From the above data, the farmer who sowed this stuff on his field distributed 680 blue weeds, 81,400 doddlers, 5,983 daisies, to say nothing of other useless pests, iq number 215,843. But this is not all 5 a single plant of blue weed will produce 14,735 seeds, of which 8,255 will come up. What a world of trouble this is! and is it any wonder that we have the English proverb: One year's weeding . Is seven year's seeding. But we have sown seed enough for one sitting. - Au.Rkvoir. "..

Washxngton, March 15. The report of the committee in vestisatins tho' contingent fund of the treasury depart-- i m- a. a. - r a a. i - menc, Buuuutteu u me oenaie 10-uay, is very voluminous, and mostly made up of extracts from testimony taken,; of which the following is an example: "At the instance of O. L. Pitney, cus todian in the treasury department, JJ Bradley Adams in the winter and' spring of 1880 furnished statknery,&iV to the Sherman campaign committee, political coiiiimuee ior ine aavance-fr ment of the candidacy of the Hon. Jno, Sherman for the Presidential nomina tion in 1881." For this stationery, &c., sundry vouch ers or accounts against the treasury de partment aggregating 45502 were made out, calling upon their face for "file holders" as articles actually purchased and were paid out or the treasury. The le holders so named in such vouchers, were never purchased or rer ceived in the treasury department, nor waa any ntner article iurmsned to tne treasury department under such vouch er. Th&re are many such charges. The report says that no witness has testified that Secretary Sherman had personal knowledge of the irregulari ties aescrioed. rne law provmes tnat the chief clerk of the treasury may ap prove vouchers for these expenditures. Hence they do not come under the sec retary's eye. A Horrible drime. Fayetteville Examiner. Some time last December, Mr. Odom Wilson, a former citizen of Fayette ville, was murdered at his home near Cheraw, S. C under circumstances which point to one B.F. Scltt, a mu latto man, as the murderer, and Mrs. Wilson as his accomplice. Scott was arrested, but discharged for want of evidence. He then left South Carolina, came over into this State, and stopped at Abbottsburg, where Mrs. Wilson, the widow of the murdered man, also went and lived with him. Meantime addi tional evidence against Scott came to tight, and a rwpisition from the Gover nor of South Carolina was made for Jiim, and he was" arrested, carried back, and lodged in the Jail of Chesterfield county, in that State. Mrs. Wilson fol lowed Scott over to Chesterfield, with a view of rendering him aid, but was her self arrested as an accomplice in- the murdjr, is now in prison awaiting her trial. They will both be tried by the circuit court in Chesterfield county, at its session which will begin on ttie 3d Monday in May (15th) 1882. Scott is described as an old man with a horrid countenance. Mrs. Wilson has seven children none of whom are grown. She is represented as a good, looking woman. It is a most revolting affair. Iron and Steel. The Economist. The growth of the iron and steel in dustry in the United States has been very remarkable. In 1810 we produced only 50,000 tons of iron, and our largest furnace could yuld only 1,100 tons an nually. But in 18;.0 the product was 165,000 tons; in 1860, 1,000,000 tons; in 1SS0 the iron and steel works of the United States produced 7,265,100 tons. The aggregate annual product of our manufacturing and mechanical indus tries is now more than $6,000,000,000. Of this vast product less than S200, 000,000 are "exported. And of the $900,000,000 produced by agriculture less than 10 per cmt. is .exported. On the self-supporting power of the American people, and of the mutual relations existing between our indus tries, we can dwell as Americans with the mt)st profound satisfaction -The receipts at tho seaboard cities for ex portation and consumption, including all kinds of grain, ground and un ground, aggregated 852,921.452 bushels in 1879, and 359,559,607 in 1880. The whole eastern movement of Western grain, including shipments to interior points on the Atlantic slope, must somewhat exceed 400,000,000 bushels not more than one-sixth of the total production of an abundant year, LeaP-from the Czar's lary.
