Crops are in fine condition in this and neigh

an abundant harvest for corn, cotton, rye, oats,
wheat, &c; inGercd the cereals seem especially
to premise realization Of the fondest hopes of
our tarpers who have turned their attention to
these products.
IT strikes us that there is world of wisdom
in the following quotation as it is:
"Every school boy knows that 4 kite would
not fly unless it had Il string tying it down. 1t
is just so in life. The man whip is tied down by
half dozen blooming responsibilities and their
mother will make Il higher and stronger flight
than the bachelor, who, having nothing TO keep
him steady, is always huundering in the mud.
If you want to rise in the world, tic yourself TO
somebody"
