OBITuARY.-Lost in the overflow of Last Island,
the 10Th instant Mr. Gabriel GreYemberg, of St Mary
La. He leaves an aged mother, wife and six chill
dren.
In the prime of his youth and of his usefulness
when life smiled around him. and in the glowing vista
OF the future all was sunny and bright. Amid the
war of the elements, when shreks mingled with the
deep mutterngs of the sea- his eye was shut forever
from the light of day No friend was there to close
his fmy eye, no head hung in fondness over him to
catch his last drawn sigh! Idly floating on the cres-
ted wave he swept away from his friends gaze, with
the oceans name for his pillow. No garIands shall
be strewn upon thy grave, poor Grevemberg no sigh
shall be drawn near thy slumbering form! "Where
the Anightys form glasses itself in tempeats" wilt
thou sleep on ever, the deep is thy grave and
its breathings sing thy requiem. 'slIy mother! my
seite my children :" were his last words on earth
No one save God heard his last fond farewell to those
he left behind, but the song of ethereal beings min
gled with the coarse deep voice Of the tenpest for
the s. soul OF an honest and upright man was wingng
its flight to the fields of eternity In the sunshine Of
thy Makers presence sleep on, poor friend, until
those thou hast left on earth will meet thee in the
place where everlasting spring ahdes and never
whitening flowers. Franklin Journal, Aug. 81.

CRops IN ALABAMA.-The Columbus (Ga.) En-
quirer, of the 2lst inst. says:
We were surprised, last week, while making short
trip by railroad into Alabama, to see that the corn
from which fodder has not yet heen pulled looked
so much greener and more promising than it did a
saved much fodder and have caused the corn in many
fields, that had commenced premaurely to shrvel, to
fill out better. We may say that we saw no cotton
ready for picking and that plant is everywhere stunt
ed and backward; but in many places it is well filled
with squares and bos. There cannot be large crop
in this section and even fair yield is yet depend
ent upon favorable weather. Peas and potatoes have
do doubt been benefited by the recent rains. It is
usual to have sweet potatoes for table use by the mid
die OF August, but we have heard of none this year.
