Edisto,) and that Of Orangeburg as both carried
away, wholly or in part; at all events they are
impossible. 1t is not improbable, indeed that
another heavy rain above would sweep away all
the bridges below. The disaster is a yery great
one, and not only lessons the prospects of the
crop but greatly embarrasses the ordinary opera

ylslbly less every day. / see no good stands in

The cotton seed has proved worthless in the ma
Jorlty OF cases. being, in hundreds of instances the
mere Sweepings of ginhouses, the refuse from the
crop Of three or four preceding years. The only
good kinds of seed seem to be those which were
preserved in the wool or lint.
In all the vacant spaces thus left in the cotton
fields, the planters are sowing corn. This may
prove providential visitation The great need Of
money and the desire for it, led too many of til q
planters TO disproportion in quantity between
their sowngs of corn and cotton very much against
the former.
The result would have been repetition of the
experience of this year and the last-namely such
deficiency OF breadstuffs ashas brought the coun.
try very nearly to the verge of famine Indeed
Il is very difficult matter to decide in what way
thousands will obtain their needed supplies of
corn until the new crop comes in. In this district
