From the Advertiser of the same date, we Sc

serious detriment to the cotton crop.
WEATHER AND GEops-.3rEaasas.- The Little
Rock Gazette and Democrat, of the 9TH inst .,
speaking of the growing crops, says:
From information gathered from farmers
from different portions Of our State, We are led
to believe that the corn crop will rather exceed
an average crop, if it does not equal that of
last year, which was probably the largest yet
gathered in the State The cotton too looks
exceedingly well, and exhibits healthier APP
pcarance than is usual At this season, promis-
fng to the planter rich harvest to repay him
for his lahors
The Washington Telegraph, of the Sd inst,
says;
Every day brings us favorable intelligence Of
the growing crops. In this and the adjoining
counties the prospects Tor both corn and cotton
are highly tlattering.

tied with another heavy fail Of rain on Sunday

night, and from the appearance eff the clouds
the RAIN extended over large portion Of the
surrounding country
