ed TO enquire whether any, and if any,
what descriptions of claims against the u.
States are barred by the statute of limita-
tons, which ia reason and Justice ought
to be provided for. and that said committee
be authorised TO report thereon by bill or
otherwise.

For eight days past we have experienced
IN THIS city an almost continual fall of rain.
A great quantity of water has fallen. If
II has been generalthreugh the state, which
10 very probable, great injury we fear will
DC done to the crop of cotton, as in wet
seasons the bowels or pods fall from the
plant before they arrive at perfection. he
rice harvesti is also greatly impeded, If not
injured before these rains commenced
the prospects OF great crops were highly
aattering.
