nsA- The following extract from private letter
from lady friend, who resides in our sister State
Kentucky, shows that our efforts are not entirely
unappreciated:
"Wen, bless the old "Chronicler' All hail to
my paper friend of other days and success to its
future travels. May it, ms of old, be gladly well
coined at the fresides of its former friends 10 whom
it once more offers a cheerful weekly greeting.
Alasl how many who, in days gone by, welcomed
its Friday visits, now slumber in silence ON the
far Oft battle field, and how many whose eyes
then frightened they unfolded the Chronicle be-
side the glowing winter fire. or beneath the COO
shade in summer, will now, rs they glance over its
pages, feel shadow creep slowly over the heart
and tear drop dim the eve, at remembrance Of
those who once read its cheerful columns with them
but whose voices have been hushed, amid the roar
of cannon and the clash Of glittering hayonets du-
uring its long silence. Sad ., how sad has been
the changed
Yes, am glad to have the Chronicle home

BLmDTon.-The Cincinnati Commercial Of ysster'

BLIND TOM-The Cincinnati Commercial Of ysster
day says;
The argument of eouasel in the case Of Blind
Tom will be- found under the Court Report Our
readers will remember that General Bethunea prom
nent citizen of Georgia, some days since brought
to this city for exhibition Blind Tom, colored
boy, with great natural powers as musician, This
boy was formerly the slave of the General but he
now claims TO hold him under 4 contract with the
boys parents, also the Generals former slaves.
Tabs Gross, the other claimant brought writ OF
habeds corpus, claiming the boy as his by virtue OF
contracts with Bethune and of letters of guardian
ship. II win be seen that Judge Dickson asks the
Court to dlsrega Both of these claimants, and to
appoint Levi Coffin as Toms guardian. The de-
csion of the Court will be rendered at ten O'Clock
this morning.

BRrndEs.-When in good order are generally a
benefit to the community, but when they are d.
lopidated or down entirely they are nuisance.
GAINESVILLE has the misfortune to be so situated
that bridges are necessary in some portion of her
area For instance, ON the road leading from the
depot to Searcys ferry there is place for bridge
but nothing across it. so that travellers in that d.
rection have to make circuitous route of about q
mile. Then the bridge across the rail road cut on
Madison street is in break-neck condition, while
there is no crossing at all over Red river on the
Russellville turnpike. The last named is the most
important one we have mentioned. If the people
of GAINESVILLE desire the trade OF the surrounding
vicinity, they must open facilities for their custom
ers to make their exit and entrance into the city
The Russellville pike is of the principal arte-
ries which has heretofore sustained the life OF
trade. Over it we have seen long trains of wagons
bringing tobacco to her markets. So soon rs the
tobacco opens, if the bridge is not compile
ted we will the trade from that section seeking
other markets, Who will then be to blame? We
hope soon TO see trade fully resumed upon our
streets and hear the roll of machinery upon our
thoroughfTes; and unles exertions are made by
those to whom the duty of restoring it belongs,
on We will suffer righteous disappointment.

TIE TcRAcco CRoP.-From all sections Of the
country comes the same dismal tones concerning
the prospects for the growing crop Of tobacco.
For twenty years there has not boon a season as
unfavorabe for its growth The excessive Mains, in
the early part Of the year, rendered Il impossible
for planters 10 prepare their seed beds in good order
and the rains continuing after the seeds were sown,
SO compaeted the soil and so washed the beds or
overhowed them, as to preclude the possibility OF
bountiful supply of plants. As soon, however, as
the few remaining ones grew large enough for
trsnspanting, severe drouth set in and continued
until the planting season was nearly over. The
consequence is that not than one third of the
crop, intended to be planted, was set out in good
time. Aud when we take into consideration the
shorness Of the crop that must have resulted from
the abandonment of farms the loss aad inefficency
of labor and the general arrangement and uncer-
tain condition of public sars, In the early part of
the year, we make a large estimate, we think,
when we set down the quality which the present
growing crop will make, at one-ifth of hat It was
in 1859. Indeed, from diligent enquiries made,
from every part of the GAINESVILLE tobacco growing
region we are sadly and painfully convinced that
the quantity which will be sent to market from this
section, viii hardly be appreciable. Occurring, at
a time when the country has just emerged from ono
of the most destructive wars known to history; and
when the taxes, State, county and government, are
most onerous and the farm hands all to pay for at
high rates, the failure of the Of the crop is justly
regarded by our farmers as very great calamity,
and one which viii be most disastrous in its reslts
to the community.
We are pleased to learn, however, that the corn
crop is looking exceedingly well and promise a
heavy yield. So we may console ourseles with the
reflection, that if we cannot dress as fine or chew
as much tobacco as we wish, we can at least, have
enough of "hog and hominey."
