THE WEATHER AND THE CRoPs.
During the past week, the weather
has been bland AID delightful. We
begin to feel like Spring had really
set in, when the ftathered musicians
are turning their merry pipes in every
grove, and the wonds are arrayed in
their vernnl livery. Farmers have
fine time now for planting cotton.
Throughout middle Georgia, so far as
our own observation extends, and
from what we can learn, the grain CROP
is very promising. IfJack Frost will
let us alone, the hope may be rational
ly entertained, Tint the grain crop
will be highly. productive. Present
indications, mt least, are very fav-
orable.-Afiitedgevilie Union.

lnE PupLIc DoMAIN.-Ihe; dis
c,lsslons which have recently taken
place in both Houses of Congress on
the Public Lands, have brought to
light number of interesting facts. One
of the most important Of these facts is
the amount or extent of the public
domain-thc increase Of which. by
the Mexican purchase or conquest, Is
not yet appreciated by the public. BY
an examination Of the books of the
Land Office, it is asccrtained that the
number OF acres of public land in each
State and Territory unsold and un-
disposed of, on the 3Oth of June, 1851
was 1900, ,632, ,3O5, ,4S acres.
This stupcndous public domain, at
81 25 cents per acre, the lowest sun,
for which the public lands are sold is
worth upon this statement, &l,15O,
70f, 1880. No nation ever before had
any thing like such u prize Mt its
disposal-and if it could be managed
properly, would go far to pay our
taxes, and to keep us clear from
all national debts.-Mdcon Telegrupk
