In social life she was esteemed for her ta-

KEle Crops.

From all seclious of the country we hear of f1altering prospects for good Corn crops, bm most deplorable ac, counts are given of Cotch. And if We were to judge from the appearance Of some fields We have seen during the lasl week or two, we would say they were deplorable. One fed in particular, ir. Montgomery county, of about one t,un- dred acres--the cotton was almost hid from sight by the grass, and haI com menced giving a yellow appearance. IT was lost, almost beyond redemption, for Il IS an impcssibiity 10 get il clean of grass in ime for it to do auy thing in forming, and consequently will make nothing comparatively. This is ,he case in many ine.ances all through the country. In consequence of the cons inued rains, in many places t was be- yond a possibility for farmers 10 give that work 10 their crops which was re-. qulred. And then, those who have been more fortunate than their nelghbors, 10 get their cotton clean, il has "run all 10 weed and consequently will not, unless dry weather commences soon, make any thing like a fair crop. We also learn that the worm have commenced their ravages in many parts of lhe State. Taking all these disasters together, We appTehend great fears that the cotton crop in Alabama will be much less than any previous year.

We refer the reader to the article from the Huntsville Democrat, in another portion of to.day's paper, setting forth some lght on the political consistency of this much beloved disciple oi the whig party. Capt. Davis, it seems has been on all sides oi all subjects, and now entertains an anlipaihy against eve, " thing like party, and wants 10 be eve ry thing to all men but particularly do tho whigs just about here embrace him, for purposes they themselves know not We first find him warm sup porter of General Jackson, voting for the hero of New Orleans, with tears in his eyes. We next find him Federal ist and devout supporter cf the admin nist. alton of John @. Adams. Then I democral--then a Clay proselite, and now he wishes 10 impose himself upon the democratic people of Alabama as a no party man-just anything and eve- rything they want. The people of Ala bama are ;oo proud of their existence as a political Government, 10 allow Federal demagogues 10 creep into office under the garb of no principled men, The people want men of principle, no men whose opinions on political topics ! .i h s h n Bl C tend they have no party or principle tc principles, he is unfit for any position ir political affairs. It is opinions or sub jects Of policy that gives cast 10 parties and when man declares himself a nc party man you may either set him 2owr as demagogue, or as an individual in. capable of coming 10 conclusions o his own. And consequently it wouIo be impolitic to place man in the Exe- cutive Chair of this State who declares that ii is unnecessary for party em, bers 10 be famed" This may be a cor. rect view of the matter for Capt. Davis 10 take of affairs, when he krows the democracy have round ten thousand majority, so as to lure portion of tha party tu his support. This rouse oi Capt. Davis's will not do; they recol. lect too well ihe somersets he has taker heretofore, and the people are not dis posed to spread canvass before uncer, tain winds.
