RAIN--We were visited, on Wednesday
night last. with a refreshing vegetation-re-
viving rain.-not partial shower merely,
but a general. soaking. earth-invigorating
rain, that carried joy and gladness to the
hearts Of the husbandmen. The earth is
no longer parched. and the crops, revived
and refreshed, never looked better, nor has
the prospect. for many years, beer more
promising Corn that was planted early,
may now be considered safe, and with an
other seasonable rain or two. the crop in
South Arkansas will be greater than it has
ever been known before Cotton has also
improved greatly. and the prospect is fat
tering- Ii the crops ever were in better
condition, or gave greater promise Of an
abundant yield. We do not recollect the time
when.
The river, We learn, is rising again
slowly, but there is no prospect CT there be-
ing anything like enough water to open nav
igation.
