Spain. &C.. &c. Gen. Montenegro with 5000
men. is reported as en- route from Sonora and
below to the copper mines. Gen. Morales,

Posi- OFFICE ENVELOPES 1t is now stated
that the new postage stamps will not be issued
before the lst July. The Postmaster General
being indisposed to scatter them abroad until
he can bave sufficient on hand to send them in

until the 1st of July, when an ample supply
will be ready. They are printed on paper
made for the purpose, SO water-lined that in
each envelope one may plainly distinguish,
besides the beautiful postage stamp, the let
tiers "P. o. ID. u" (meaning Post Office De.

TOBACCO PLANTs.-We have heard Of much
complaint among planters of a deficiency of to-
bacco plants in nearly all of the counties OF
this Section of the State. And though the sea.
son has been favorable, and is now advan.
cedD but very few planters have yet pitched
more than half a crop We have no doubt,
however, from the information which we have
received, that with favorable seasons during
the present month a full adverage crop will be
planted.
The Louisville (Ky.) Journal relative to
the injury of plants in that State. says:
We have seen letters from Union and other
counties on the Ohio river, and from Green and
adjoining counties, which state that the plant
is very scarce and has been badly managed
by the fly. Many farmers had prepared ~
acres for tobacco, but had not more plants
than " onld set out an acre.
The Kessevlle, (Ky.) Herald also says,that
in the Northern part of Logan, and the adjoin
ing portion of Butler, the destruction has been
almost total In the Southern division of the
county, the loss is not SO great but there are
serious complaints from all sections. We
learn further that the fly has done considerable
damage to the tobacco plants in the counties
