The Tobacco Crop.-The growing crops in
Virginia have again been seriously injured by the
recent hail storms. The Lyuchburg Republican
of the Goth ult states that on the Saturday pre-
vous tremendous hail storm passed through parts
Of the counties of Bedford, Franklin, PitSylvania,
Campbell, Charlotte, APpomattox and Prince Ed
ward, doing immense damage to the Tobacco crop
particularly.
We do not think we have before published the
following from the GAINESVILLE TENN Jeffersonan
The planters in this region have commenced
cutting, and what has been gathered is unusually
line BY far the greater portion of the crop, how
ever, will not mature for some weeks. From what
we have been able to gather from the most intelli-
gent sources the present crop will not yield more
than two-thirds much as the last The highest
e innate for the entire Western crop, is 10000
hhds., while others state it as low as 80 900. 1t
will not in all probability exceed $1,000 hhds
reshet, is estimated at from 4 to 5000 hhds The
crop there will not exceed 10000 hhds"

Increase Of the Army.

Congress by recent act, has increased
the rank and file Of the army very con-
siderably. The new Inv authorizes the
President BY enlistment, to increase the
priyates Of ench company of infantry, dra-
goons and rifles, to IA. The former num-
ber was, we believe, but SO. The in
creaseis therefore % to each company,
and 220 10 each regiment. The regiments
Of artillery are alsn slightly increased.--
The total increase viii be about 5000 men:
All this force is needed on our western
frontier. Within afewdnys we have had
two mpssacres by tho Apache Indians. -
We should have 3000mounted men in New
Mexico, and in tho forts on the Platte RI
yer, where they might protect the emf
grants. We fear that even this increase
will be too late, for the emergency. En-
listmonts, wo learn. are going on well,
from class Of actiye, energetic men: yet
IL will take considerable tima to add 5000
men % the rank and fooi the army.-
