I A letter dated August 9tb, from a good farmer, living within a mile of Washing ton, N. C, to a . gentleman in this city, contains the , following: "We have had some of the heaviest ruins I have ever seen in my life, and we have as poor crops as I have ever seen in this section.

We are glad to learn that there .is con siderable interesyeing manifested by the young men of otfr city on the subject of temperance. There were, several acces sions to Athens Lodge of Good Templars on Tuesday night, and many more applica tions for membership.- J Next to religion,' the people j could not be stirred up on a more worthy subject. There are many of our young men, .bright,' intellectual and promising, who are daily, some of them hourly, pandering to an appetite for liquor, which can but eventually drag them doirai to the lowest depths of degradation. This is no fancy picture, as the observation of every young man in this city testifies, and) while we do not intend this for a temper ance lecture, we feel it our duty, as a pub lic journalist, to call the attention of those who are in mortal peril to ' the dangers which they will not perceive. Probably Mortally Wounded. We learned last night that a serious acci? dent, which probably, resulted in death, occurred to a Mr. -Potter, on Bay River, yesterday. He was cutting wood and the ax shied to one side, striking his leg, mak ing a terrible, gapping wound, which bled profusely. When our . informant left Mr. Potter's wound was still bleeding copiously and it was believed he would die before i surgical aid could reach 1 him. . :1jom of Stoesc; - Mr.; William Channcy drove a mole from Washington to this i city 1 yesterday, and shortly after his arrival the animal was at tacked with colic and shortly died. . Mr. John Q. Adams, of Pantega drorf his fine horse from his home to this . city on Saturday, and on Monday the horse was attacked with Blind Staggers, which it is thought will result in death. 'J t Tbe Fall Trade.! The Wholesale Fall Trade will begin in a very few days and our leading -merchants and jobbers are looking forward to a f very largo business, partcularly with the Soutli and West. Excellent 'reports are i jreceWe4 from every quarter in regard to the crops, and good crops mean fall pockets, baiii accounts . and business." I The outlook la rather encouraging. A1". T.
