SOUTHERN CROPS.

From the best information we ca gather
it il no sxaggeration to say that that the
corn crops through this section Of the coun-
try may regarded - nj entire failure. On
thousands Of acres Of land which Of ordinary
years would make good yield, the crop,
will be 1it only for forage. This state o:
things exists throughout this and the i'd
joining counties. In particular neighbct
hoods, where they have had showers occa.
sionally. and on rich slough and bottom
lands the case may be somewhat different,
but Is . general thing it is about as we have
stated. The cotton, too begins to suffer
severely with drouth, and unless rain comes
soon that will .be cut short also. It will
require the most rigid economy on the
part Of the Of our planters to support their
farms and live upon what they will make
until another crop can 30 made. Many OF
them will have 20 make la1ge purchases Of
corn and provisions. and they will be tortun-
ste to make cotton enough to pay for them.
