THE recent frost was very severe in many perts of
the South. and inflicted much damage upon the out
standing crops In Maryland considerable damage
was DONE and in some parts of Georgia, the tobac-
crop received severe injury. The frost appeared
very generally throughout the interior of South
Carolina, and also in Mississippi and Alabama The
jacksonville tAla, Republican says SO severe frost
early the 9th Of September, has not been ex-
perienced in that section for twenty years. and
siderable damage must have been inflicted on the
Gotten and other crops In the vicinity of Bruins
wick No. it is said that at least half of the to-
bacco crop has been destroyed by the frost The
Paris Tenn Sentinel also reports extensive damage
from the same source, to the tobacco crop of that
State. In one county alone the loss will exceed
