GLOOMY PROSPECTS IN ALABAMA.


FROM THE TUSCALOOSA MONITOR OF JULY 81.
The corn crop through this whole section of
country is literally destroyed. Many of our far
mers cntting down the entire crops for fodder;
whole and large fields, in many instances, not
affording single ear or shoot Corn has already
been sold here, we understand. at one dollar and
quarter per bushel; and there is no telling what
its price will be before the opening of naviga-
ton enables us to get supplies from the sea-
board.
Our provision market in other respects is very
scanty. Bacon sides are selling here now for
eleven and thirteen cents per pound. Flour is
selling at five or six dollars hundred. Our
Western friends would do well to take no
tice of this state of things, and max arrange
ments TO furnish this and other sections of Alaba-
ma with early supplies.
The cotton crop is greatly injured by the
drought, and the probability is that it will be cut
off one half or two thirds. In the memory of the
Oldest inhabtant, there never has been known
here drought so destructive.
