by rain, and the absence Of the Principal Of the

Of the death OF one Of his children, still lurther

This lady possesses musical talent Of a very high
order; aud, in sweetness of tones, compass and

superior ability in this department Of science is

and growing ability in their musical attainment,

impossible for me TO decide, with due discrimina.

RAIN! RATN!!

Never before, within Our recollection have we at
this time Of the year had such continued. almost
uninterrupted spell of wet weather. Since the lst
OF this month, Tor one fair, clear day, We have had
somewhat dozen wet, DRILLING ones, and scarcely
week has passed during which We have not had
several heavy rains While we pen these hasty
haesi Is pouring down in torrents and our streets
are completely flooded. This Icing continued damp
weather and these frequent profuse rains mus, be
most disastrous to the cotton crop. Scarcely the

order, most unusual thing for this season Of the
year, Is stili rising and should the rains continue
much longer, will probably se over its banks in a
few days.
