Severe Hail Storm.

A terrific hail storm passed through the
vicinity ol Indian Hill and Lethe, in this Dis
lrict, lost week, greatly to the detriment
of the growing WHEAT crop in that section.
Our intnrmapt says the trees were literally
stripped of their leaves, and in many places
the bark OF them even pelted off. The hail
stones are represented to have been as large
as hen egg Several persons lost lanbs,
pigs aud fowls by its Eavages. The current
of the storm was confined TO narrow slip of
country, consequently the damage done To tue
wheat crop generally is not very considerable.

1t is very evident that some of. the Federal

nigger war. The letters sent by them 10
their friends are very dcspondn,s, and the
tone of them shows that their writer's look
for anything but success One Of them writes
thus from the Vicksburg army
!. Coming down and sines we have been here,
: have seen enough OF abolitionism to aatun-
ish and disgust any man with heart. Since
wo left Helena, ! have .teen no less than ten
negroes lie out 10 the open DIR, or on the deck
Of boat, with scarcely rag on. have
seen those niggerS lay within sight of twenty
thousand men, and some that knew we're
the backest kind of abolitionists, aud die
without mouthfu to,eat and for the want
of adraught of wat r.. And those very men
who feel 30 for the blacks in bondage could
nee. those negroes die ike dogs Old Captain

Of bis blankets and gays-ihs to u poor darkie
to die in.
What I. have observed ard experienced
summed up, amounts to just this: First, [
have never seen a regular African that could
take care of himself Secondly, it is for
planters interest to feed, clothe and use his
slaves well. They live rs comfortably and rs
well as our hard.workirg men in the North,
and one white man will actually do more
work than four negroes. Wea.e taking them
from soft beds and plenty of food, tc live on
nothing and sleep on brick pavements. We
are here living on a little of nothing, sleep
ing in the mud, and exposing ourselves to a
thousand different dangers to bring aboutthis
result. = -
