This was one OF the most interesting and beautiful
races which ever took place in this country. The
fame of the horses had attracted an immense num-
Der to the Course, and the contest which ensued
between those truly "high melted racers" richly
paid all for their visit. Portsmouth was the favor
lite, to 5, and though the reputation which Vashti
bought with her decidedly favorable. It was hard
ly thought possible that she could win against the
pick the Virginia stables.
10 the first heat Portsmouth took the lead and
mslniained II gallanlly throughout, though every
luch OF ground was disputed with him BY Steele
v ashti just dropng in her distance. The second
heat Vash got the lead, and was pushed from the
start by Portsmouth, who kept up a tremendous
pace, but but after struggle almost Unprecedented,
Tor three miles, gave back, aud Vashi though not
without desperate effort on the pau Of Steele, on
the heat. Portsmouth was now drawn-it being ev-
dent that he could not win. The second heat was
desperately contested by Vashti and Steele and for
nearly the whole distance they were neck and neck
from him. and won the heat, by about length, and
with the heat. the purse. The time Of the second

that lac feels warranted in asserting that the
crop Of 1888, cannot equal that OF Il So if L does
not TALL considerably short of it. The drought is
so severe at this time, that the springs and wells
are falling in many places. 1t would be well for
the planters in each district 10 give statement Of
the crop.
Extract Of letter frcm an extensive Planter
in Crecnyille District, Sept %, lc3J.-a Owing
10 the long and continued drought which has ex-
hted for the last two months, and tho rust which
commenced in August, ! am satisfied that the
country between the Broad and Savannah Rivers,
will net make two thirds Of crop Of Cotton.
CroPs IN Nssissippj-A letter dated Sept
18th, from subscriber in Simpson County,

extreme drought of the Summer, Cotton crops
and late Corn crops are rluch injured. The
drotght had also been severe for five or sly weeks
preylous to the date of the letter, and the Pea
crops we're ru.ned.-Mercury.
Extract Of a letter from Houston Co Geo. da.
ted Sept "a, 1873 In the month Of July, and
the carly part Of August, the prospects Of the
planter were unusually hlrefing for a large crop
Of Cotton, but SINCE then the unusually pro,rac.
ted drought winch still continues. and the rust
have injured It more IN tie same time than ever
have known It before, aud am nov satisfied
that not more than two thirds Of what was then
expected, and less than what was made last
