CROP News The Columbia Mirror of 21st says:
Our farmers are complaining in consequences Of
the want Of rain. There are, we learn, some of
the richest neghborhoOds in the county, where they
will not make over four barrels of corn per acre.
What that much needed commodity will be worth
next year at this season, is now guile difficult to
estimate, unless the windows of heaven are opened
and we are blessed with copious showers much
than the present state Of the clouds and at
mesphere indicates. We have heard of few sales
of corn being made of last years crop at 81 80 per
barrel, but from the cigns of the times now the
purchaser will have to give a great deal more than
that in 8 few weeks q"
The GAINESVILLE JefersoniGn of the goth ssys:
''The weather for the past month has been terri6-
caly hot and not drop of water has fallen to cool
the parched earth or nouish vegetation for nearly
q month. Every description of crop is in a most
forlorn and critical condition Unless we have rain
in a very short time the corn and tobacco crops will
be a total loss"
The Cincinnati Price Current, of The 10Th, SAWS
"Hesvy showers havs swept over portions of the
various western States. within the week, but they
have been only partial aud, generally speaking,
the corn and grass are suffering for want of rain
In west Tennessee and western Kentucky, the
drought has been severe, and it is feared will prove
disastrous to A letter from Jackson, Tenres-
sse informs us that the corne in that locality is
nearly if not wholly, ruined and that the planters
had almost despaired of having any. From Iowa,
illinois, Missouri, Indiana, have not received
any serious complaints; the is represented do
