MYSTERIOUS AFFAIR.--An old man named Jacob
Howard, residing near Gap Mills, Va was found
dead in his bed one morning recently with his throat
cut from ear to ear. A bloody razor, carefully
wrapped in an apron was found under the bed, but
as there was no about the house besides his wife
his sons wife and several children, this discovery
only added to the mystery of the affair. Suspicion
appeared to attach to nobody in particular.

THE CoTroN-We regret to learn, on our return,
that the cotton crop in this portion of Florida is not
so promising as it was when we left home early in
August. Az that time we were disposed to brag on
the Florida crops We had right to do so, but the
crop has been cut short here by the dry weather.
Our planters we learn would generally be very will
ing to compromise with two-thirds of crop. We
are inclined to think however, that our prospects
at least 33 per cent. better than those Of neigh
bors of Georgia, especially in the middle part of the
State. There the prospect is gloomy enough. From
crop of Middle Georgia will be well nigh failure

The gallant wouldbe.husband is reported to have
