The crops i'm Alabama.

We learn from. letter received at this
othce, dated Greensboro. Alabama, October
7th, that very short crop of cotton was
planted this year, and the yield is remark
ably short. 1t is stated that it will not
asefa@o three hundred pounds of seed cot
ton 10 The acre, when there ought to have
been made from one thousand to fifteen
hundred pounds. The corn crop is also
very short, but the planters generally will
make enough for home consumption and
some to spare. Owing to an almost I'M
preeedented drought, protracted through
twelve weeks, the wheat and oat crop are
entire failures Petersburgh Express,

Information from Manassas Junction
this morning, says that portion OF
SIckles' command went forward to look
after the Orange d. Alexandria Railroad,
and found it in better condition than was
anticipated, to about nearly up to Catlett's
station. The r. r. Bridge ut Broad Run
was found partially burnt by the rebels,
and it is supposed partly sawed, though it
can however be easily and quickly repair
ed. Little Ran bridge was found unin-
jured. Our troops hold the country in
the vicinity of Brentvillc, and have driv-
en- the piratical rebel parties upon Warren
ton junction. They however continue to
scout down as low as Catlett's station and
will doubtless destroy the Cedar Run
bridge if they have not already done so.
The Manassas r. r. is in pretty good
working order clear up 10 Thofo4 gFifare
Gap.
Information received last night indi-
Gates that the t4t4i rebel force IT Warren
ton junction is not more than 8 1000 in
fantry with corresponding number OF
cavalry and artillery.
