THE TOBACCO CRoP--As we are often asked what
the prospects for tobacco crop, we have en-
deavored to gain information on that interesting
subject and the result is the conviction that not
more than two-thirds of crop will be produced in
this section. The rains in the earlier part of the
season very partial, and, in consequence, there
is here and there fine crop; but the long contn-
ued drought the larger portion of the tobacco
growing region, kept back the growth of the plant
until late period that it necessary to top it
low, consequently the plants are small In addition
to this, the cool weather which set in with this
month"; and gave promise of an early frost, induced
many planters to cut too green and as tobacco not
fully ripe is always light, the loss in pounds, will
be heavy even where there is but little apparent
diminution in bulk. II is always difficult at this
season of the year. to arrive at satisfactory inior-
nation Of the extent Of the tobacco crop but from
all can learn the foregoing estimate is not fan
wrong.
