Crop Prospects In Alab.m..

We have just returned from trip through por-
tons of Coosa and Tailapoosa counties, Alabama,
and we gathered oil the information we could both
from observation and inquiry, as regards the crop
prospects. The wheat crop find very promis-
ing, and should the season prove favorable. and
the rust not make its appearance, an abundant
harvest may be anticipated. 1t is generally very
forward, and We think will come ON about two
weeks earlier than usual, which will not be too
soon. Fruit trees are hanging full of young and
tender fruit, which promises well. The land for
and cotton is in excellent order; we fear
however, too much cotton is planted to the exelu-
sion of corn. Planters have gone to work in
earnest. We saw in one field, two white ladies
hard at work hoeing corn. In another We saw
white lady blowing, and, close by, playing in the
newly made burrows was her little child, happily
too young to be troubled with the cares and sor-
rows that weighed SO heavily the heart III its
poor widowed mother. Happy, indeed. is the sea-
son of youth, but alas how soon it is gone. Our
hearts deeply sympathized with them, hut we COM
mend their example to thousands of both sexes
who fold their arms in idle ease, lament their un-
happy fate, and await the comforts of life, with
out an effort on their part to secure them.
