White PosT, CLARKE COUNTY, Va, Aug
25.-Wben wrote my last letter, We were
in the midst Of fine season. Since that
time we have not had a drop of rain, and
the ground has become so hard that many OF
our farmers have been compelled to stop
ploughiug. The late Corn will make but
little, and the earliest will not make as much
as was expected, although the Corn from this
place to Berryville is quite good, and will
make from to bushels per acre.
We have fine supply of dust at this time,
and it is kept in constant motion by the num-
bers who are attending the Camp meeting at
Newtown, aud the Baptist Association in
Berryville, drawn out By the eluquence OF
Mr.. Samuel R,sse at the former place, and
