THE CROPS OF FLoRIDA.-The ancient Cit

THE CROPS OF FLoRIDA.-The AHeient city,
published at St. Augustine, gives some interesting
particulars of the crops of that State.
The Cotton and Tobacco crops, it represents as
good. 1t notes what is called remarkable in
stance of the yield of the Cotton crop; namely,
the product of $50 pounds of Seed Cotton, from
an acre and half at Wacahootec, and an aver
age of 1900 pounds from q lot Of from fifteen to
twenty acres in Columbia County.
The Tobacco crop has been increased, and one
sample parcel, raised by Capt. Priest, in Marion
County, brought 52l cents per pound in New
York Tobacco it says, is becoming leading ar.
ticle Of culture among the planters Of Marion and
Alachua Counties and it has so far brought the
highest market prices and proved very profitable.
The Sugar crop was somewhat injured by the
frost Of the 9th Of December. The earlier frost,
which so much injured the cane Of Texas and
Louisiana, did no harm to that of Florida.
Arrow. Root has been extensively cultivated in
the interior and turned out well. In Micanopy
preparations are making to manufacture this arti-
Gle on an extensive scale.
