"a of August, the first bale of new cotton was
brought in. 1t claased as middling fair and wRs
sold for Is cents pound.
We learn by letter dated Betesyille, Ark.
September l, that the crops in the region arouad
that place promise but poor returns
The Florence (Ala Guzette ofthe 3lst ult says
In this aud the neighborng counties, the planters
complain of bad stands and small bos, aud it is
generally conceded that he crop is also ess than an
gyersse one, but the recent rains will have ten
depcy TO increase the yield beyond what WAS an
ticipated in the month of July. If we have ia
vorabe picking season and late killing frost, cot
ton and corn may turn out much bette than we
now expect.
The Washington ARK Telegraph Of the 3lat
uIF says; "The prospect for fair crop OF cotton
has greatly improved. Much depends, however,
on the fall sc ason, the crop is somewhat later
than uaual. At present the prospect for fair crop
is very good. Some of our planters have COM
menced picking.
The corn crop In Southwestern Georgia, west Of
the Flint River, is very large and exceedingly fine
East OF the river the crop is not as promising but
ID nevertheless very good. Tho corn crop In the
uppercounties OF the State is short
From all sections of Georgia We hear OF COM
plants in regard to the damage done to the cotton
and corn crops by the late gale. In some local.
ties nearly the whole of the open cotton was de-
tached from the bolls, and caat upon the ground in
a damaged condition-the leaves and green bolls
were whipped from the atalks, and the stalks them
selves Frustrated to the earth. In other places,
and in fact, generally speaking, the blow was less
severe, and less destructive but the damage every
where was serious.
Thh East Fsiciana Wing of the 4th inst. says
the picking aesson has fairly commenced In that
parsb, and thus far the yield has been fair. The
reports, though, for the preceding few days, were
of quite an unfavorable nature The boil worm
had made its appearance in the fields in every
quarter and iss ravageg are represented as highly
detrimental to the crop. From the Indifferent
sts3d caused by the April froit', the cut worm,
and much questionable weather, causing extern
sive shedding OF young bols, blooms and forms,
the planters think the crop will fall much short OF
fair average, though perhaps better one than
that of last year.
The Poinfe Couple Echo of the 7!h inst. says
that on nearly all the parts OF the parish which
were submerged during the late high water, the
cotton planted since the overflow presents the
most promising appearance, and that II the tfoss
be late more than fair crop will be made. The
corn Planted under the aame unfayorable ctrcum-
atances will also yield well
The 81. Franclsrtde eat Felicianal Chronicle
Of the 18th mat notices the appearance Of the army
worm On the plantation OF Mr.. oyras Hasiif In
that parish The worm and the late cool weather
will make the crop much shorter than was antlcl
pated In the Northwestern part OF the parlsh the
cool Gather caused the forms to ahed s1d entirely
checked the growth Of the plant which had been
making finely. The augar cane on some Planta
tons in the parish ia very Indifferent indeed, and
on others very excellent. The planters greatly
| fear an equinoctial gale. IN. " fIc.
