THE CoMpRuMIsE.-Amdst the varied aud
contradictory reports from Washington we are
lost. The sentiment in Washington is enveloped
in thick mist. In fact, we have commenced
to think that there is sort Of suspension and
shifting of opinion among the members of Con-
gress. They are in a peculiar position. II they
vote for the Compromise, they will run against
the President !; and if they vote against it, they
will offend the people. This is truly deplorabe
fate. Yet men ought to have independent bold
ness enough to rise above these considerations but
as il is, they have not, and the consequence is
that non action is the policy

GS. The CRops.-About the Wheat crop of
Pittsylvania we have contradictory reports The
Corn Of this county did not come up until
late, and it is therefore feared will be short. The
Tobacco is not yet half planted and of that which
is planted, the yield it is feared, will be quite in
different And we regret to say, that the same
is the condition of the Tobacco cropin the coun-
ties of Henry and Halifax, of this State, and OF
Carroll and Rockingham N. c.
The Wsrrenton Flag speaks encouragingly of
the Wheat in that section.
Near Winchester, the Wheat harvest " i'll be
late, but bids fair to yield abundantlv, unless
some casualty befall it, Of which there is some
danger, owing to the lateness of the season.
The same Is true of most of the valley counties.
In the tide water counties, the Wheat is almost
beyond the power of hope.
In the vicinity of Fredericksburg, the harves,
is yielding finely. There Is little rust. but it is
not extending to any alarming degree. The Corn
is also doing well, though backward.
The reports from the Southwestern counties are
not fattering, but are by no means dlscouraging.
The yield will be an average one if not more.
We have favorable accounts of the Cotton and
Corn crops OF some portions of Alabama.
the Wheat crops of Maryland ale promising
Crops, of all kinds,in Georgia are exceedingly un
favorable.
In this County the Wheat crop will be an aver.
age one. In Buckingham and Appomaltox the
prospect is good. In the whole of this region
Tobacco will fall short.
