Damage by the Late Heavy Rains.

A planter informs us that not only the
squares and blooms. but many young bolls,
are falling from the cJttOn plant. The ex-
Iraordinary rains that have fallen during the
last two weeks have certainly greatly cur
tailed the amount of cotton that would other
wise have been gathered in September, and
probably have materially injured the general
crop.
Another lOss-and a very considerable
one-is that of the fodder crop. The rainy
season caught most farmers pulling their fod-
der, and lasted so long that those who had
not pulled cannot now gather good proven
der. The scarcity of both corn and fodder
the present year has compelled farmers to
use most of their oats and other early prov
ender, and the loss of the fodder now cannot
be to any extent supplied, as heretofore, by
Northern and Western hay. A friend sug-
gests as partial remedy, that every planter
save plenty of miilet seed and plant it next
spring for early feed. When only a few inch
es high il can be cut, and will contiaue to
grow fast and luxuriantly though cut at in
tervals throughout the season. We would
add to this a suggestion heretofore made.
that every farmer save the crab grass this fall
1t is already growing very fast since the
rains and will be abundant and luXuriant
A gentleman who fed with it last year in
forms Us that he prefers it to fodder or North
ern hay as food for horses, and its excellence
as provender for cattle is attested by many
There will certainly be enough to make up
four fold for the loss of fodder, and it can be
gathered by those capable of doing but little
other service in the field than the gathering
of grass or cotton.-ColImlbus (Gd.) Enquirer

The Commanding General regrets the in
convenience it may occasion good citizens to

BrOwnlOv's Knoxville WhiS---The
Freedom of the Press.

A gentleman of great intelligence, residing
in this city, recently had conversation with
President Davis, in which accidental allusion
was made to the rumored intention of the
Government to suppress the Knoxville Wkig.
owing to its advocacy of Unionism. He was
assured by the President that no such order
had been issued from any department at
Richmond, and that they would respect the
freedom of the Press to the utmost extent
compatible with the safety of the Govern
ment-that no journal should be prescribed
for opinions sake, unless for the utterance
of open and avowed reasonable sentiments,
tending to sedition and insurrection by force
of arms against the regular constitutional
authorities. But 10 trample upon the inalien-
able prerogative of the Press to indulge in
criticism, however severe, upon the admins
tration, and those in authority, the Govern
ment could never do with his appreciation or
consent.
Such is the very cOmmendable policy of
the Confederate Government in its scrupu-
lOus regard for every constitutional restraints
