CROPS IN THE CANERRAKE.-Wec Onversed yester-
day with a gentleman who had just returned from
the canebrake lands IN MsreDgO and Perry coun-
ties Alabama, and he informs as that the crops In
that region are the finest he ever saw. The corn
crops, he says, presen almost the appearance OF
dense canebrake, and they may be said to be al
ready made beyond contingency, and beyond doubt
the heaviest ever made in that section. A great
deal of it, he says, will make from 10 to so bushels
per acre. while scarcely any of It the canebrske
lands will make less than fifty bushels TO the acre.
The cotton crop, also, is very promising, and with
out some untoward calamity, will be overwhelming.
Much Of it he saw was considerably over waist high
or, 20 use his own language, it was nearly over
the mules backs as the negroes were blowing in
the fields" The same gentleman has been on visit
10 some Of the older counties in Middle Georgia,
and he informs US that everywhere he has been the
crops of both corn and cotton are the most Promis
ing that he ever saw Some of the Old worn out
lands in Munroe Butts and Bibb be says, will pro-
duce from Is to 30 bushels Of corn TO the acre,
where before FIVE 10 ten bushels was considered
good cropping The cotton also in this latter sec
lion is doing as well as could be wished while the
wheat crop was better than has ever been known.
The good time is just ahead.-CosUmbus (Ga) Sun,

A letter from Highland county, Ohio, to the Gin

confessed that he had received the money from cer

"IOx," the usually well informed Washington
correspondent of the Baltimore Sum- 10 his letter
the 18th inst, says u learn that the executive
government has completed all the intended arrange
ments for demonstration against Nicaragua. The
object of the measure is to induoe Nicaragua, or
rather her executive chief, MARITIME to ratify the
CAss-YRRIsARI treaty This government will, there
FORE interfere, by force for therestOraOnaud pro-
lection of the old Accessory Transit Company in their
franchise of which they deprived by the RrvAs
WALKER government. 4 naval force will be sent to
San Juan"
And the Washington Star of the 14th, announces
that the Sabine when ready for sea, will be ordered
to San Juan to protect the transit routes" SO we
conclude that there is some foundation for the state
ment that the Administration is preparing to make
demonstration against Nicaragua, in behalf Of the
old Accessory Transit Company.
