The Crops--While on a short tour down the
Bayou the other day, says the Donaldson Gre
ole, we had the satisfaction TO learn that the
cane is mich finer than il has been for some
years. Many farmers have commenced cutting
and som making sugar. The cane is full of
juice and uncorlmonly sweet for the season.
The weather IS dry and cool, which ripens the
cane very fast. We therefore anticipate for the
farmer a handsome reward for his labour. We
think il probable that 1850 hhds. of sugar m ore
