The Crops.-From all sections Of the
countryiwe hear OF Aaterius propects for
good Corn: crops! but most deplorable
accounts are given of Cotton. And if we
were,ojudge from the appearance Of some
fields we have seen during the last week
or two, we would say they were deplora-
bic. One field in particular, in Mont
gomery county, of about one hundred
acres-tbe cotton was almost hid from
sight by the grass. and had commenced
giving yellow appearance. 1t was lost
almost beyond redemption, for it is an
impossibilily to get it clean Of grass in
time for to do any thing in forming, and
consequently will make nothing compar-
alively. This is the case in many instau-
ces all through the country. In conse-
quence, of The continued rains, in many
places it was beyond possibility for
farmers to give that work to their crops
which was required.-And then, those
who have been more fortunate than their
neighbors, 10 get their cotton clean, find it
"run all to weed" and consequently will
not. unless dry weather commences SOON,
make anything like fair crop: We also
learn that The worms have commenced
their ravages in many parts of the State.
Taking all these disasters together, We
apprehend great fears that the collon crop
insAIabama will be much less Than any
previous year. Wetumpka Guard.
OrangJurgh.-A letter from Orange
burgh, dated 25th ult. says-"Since ]
wrote, you last, we have not had one day
without rain and some days three or four
heavy showers. My cotton is almost an
entire oss-I do not think, from the pre-
sent prospect that will make 10 bales,
about one fiflhor one-fourth OF a crop. My
corn is very much injured-my potatoes,
am afraid, will do nothing, the waller
having been half way up tho beds, the
greater part Of the time, for weeks at o
stretches My rice,p,oo ,-is ery=inferior."-
