HEALTH OF THE CoUNTRY.-The Concordia

Cuisine Place. owned by Lemuel p Conner, at
Rifle Point, on the Mississippi line, about miles
above Vidalia. The cholera appeared there in the
beginning of last week, and three deaths occurred
on the first night after its appearance. short
time of abatement ensued, and now it has appeared
with increased malignity. Upwards of fifty persons
had been attacked and seven deaths had occurred
when the afflicted place was last heard FROM In
Madison parish and elsewhere up the river, cholera
has almost entirely disappeared, for time at least

The CoTToN CRoP.-It is usual says the Con-

ofthe condition Of the cotton CROP at this time Of
the growing season, but never before have we
heard them general as we hear them now The
most intelligent and candid planters complain most
earnestly. These representations Independently
of our convictions from other causes) leave no
doubt in our minds that the cotton crop of the Mis-
sissippi valley this year, must be remarkably
small one. In other seasons, the cotton planters
here would have looked upon their present un-
promising condition with some hope that ENERGY
and industry in the fields would improve it shortly.
But, this season. they dare not to indulge such
hope. A regard for the welfare of their negroes
and their own best interests forbids them to go be-
yond the most moderate labor. and warns Them
