The Crops, Etc.

A brief trip to Raleigh taken during the close of the
last week, afforded US an opportunity of seeing and
curing about the state of the crops in Dupin Wayne
johnston and Wake. We sorry to say that our in
formation so gained, is not encouraging. The corn
down In New Hanover and Dupin looks better than it
does farther up. In part of Wayne Johnston and
Wake the crops both of corn and cotton look sorry"
The cold Spring prevented stand of cotton being
obtained that frequently where the plants are
healthy and vigorous they are altogether too scattering
to promise anything like a remunerative Weld The
older appeared good deal fired by the late ex-
cessve heat and drought while the late corn don't grow
at ALL from the same cause The water courses are also
very low Pretty large streams like Rockfsh Greek,
which is crossed by the Railroad at the line between n
hanover and Duplin, look very much used up Little
River, above Godsboro, is gerry little, indeed A few
good seasons may bring things out, but it is ques
tionabe indeed whether full crop be hoped for.
At Godsboro we had the pleasure of meeting the
Editors of the Rough Notes, as we'll as other friends
From all could learn, there appears to be almost
perfect unanimy among the Democrats of the Second
District in favor of Breckenridge and Lane Our friend
Mr. Robinson, we pleased to find in the enjoyment
of good health, and also speaking encouragngy of
party prospects Things are all coming right The
Rough Notes, under the charge of its able Editor, is
bound to do good service for the Democratic party. 1t
bids fair to become permanent fixed fact.
Let the people of the Second District give to the Messrs
Robinson the encouragement they Deserve and they will
be amply repaid.
The Breckenridge and Lane ratification meeting on
the Sd instant quite jubilee. There are not as
we are credbly informed, half dozen Democrats in
Wayne county who do not go the Breckenridge nomina-
ton, not only with pleasure but enthusiasm Some lit
tie fuss is made down towards Newbern but it lacks
any foundation and amounts to nothing.
Our accounts from different parts of the State all point
to the conclusion, namey-that Breckenridge and
Lane are cordially taken up by the overwhelming ia
Jorty OF all the Democrats i'll all parts of the State
Such was the tenor OF conversations we had with gen
temen from all sections. We do not say that there
are MT, in different counties Democrats whose
predictions were for Mr.. Douglass but we find
that they are gradually yielding these predictions
and, like good Democrats, lending their Influence
to promote the harmony of the party and render its
action that of unit This they can more easily do
since to Breckenridge and Lane not the most pre-
JUDGED can urge an objection.
ALI reports from the West are encouraging to the
friends of Ellis He will not lose in the West The
spirit of the Democratic party is now thoroughly
aroused In that section Our opponents have been hay
ing the fighting and the talking all to themselves The
Democrats are taking hand now and the current is
setting De other way i
