The hay crop was heavy, but there has
not been time to save it, and very little

The RlVER-THE CRoPs. On Thurs
day last White river, being swollen By
the recent rains, commenced spreading
over the bottoms. Ii continued to rise
until Sunday, on the evening OF which
it began to recede. It was higher than
at any time since the November freshet Ct
ls47, so old settlers tell Us. The corn
in some places was completely covered,
wheat Aoated of, aud in some places
-~As entirely carried of. The water
reached many wheat stacks, of course
damaging them greatly. By some it is
thought the corn in the bottom is entire
~ destroyed; others think it will be iniur-
ed but little. The oats and hay crops,
although bo1nteous, have been rendered
nearly worthless, there being so much
wet weather that it was impossible to
cure them. So far as this county is con.
cerned, the prospects of the farmers are
gloomy enough. In other places further
east, We hear of good crops BROWNS.
