THE CRors.-The Rice harvest is now pretty
generally over, except that of the very late plant
ings. Upon the Savannah river the crop is said to
be a very fair average one, with less complaint Of
volunteer than last year.
On OgeclIee we understand they have made an
excellent crop.
The Rice crop, generally, will by no means be a
large one. There are very extensive paintings of
Rice in the inland swnmps of Georgia and South
Carolina, most of which will not make the seed
that was put in the ground. Also on many of the
short rivers. as all of them were salt up to their
sources.
Sea Island Cotton in this region is not very pro-
missing; the planters complain greatly of its taking
tho rust which will cut oft the yield very CON
siderably. 1t is not opening well this year. Will
not some friend on St. Simons or in the neighbor-
hood, gives us q little information on this subject,
as 70 their section of country? We understand

THE LUMBER TRADE OF CnlcAeo.-A railroad
gentleman, writing from Chicago. gives some sta
~tistics of the lumber trade Of that city, in connec-
ton with the earnings of railroads touching Chi
Icago. The receipts of lumber thus far have been
365 millions Of feet, and will, in tive moths more
of navigation, he swelled to 465 millions of feet.
OF this large quantity all but ITO millions of feet
has been sold and it has become a matter of Ger
tainty, that before navigation is resumed, supplies
must be had over the railroads, along the lines of
which supplies are ample. A demand of 200. OOO.-
900 of feet would give 40, 600 car loads Of 5000
feet, or 900 full trains.
