The crop in the vicinity of COlum bus.
and indeed throughout the prairieI lands
is very promising, and the stand of corn
and cotton quite as good as could be ex.
pected after such backward spring and
such long continued and heavy rains.
A new and well-eonducted hotel has
just been completed at Artesia, on the
Mobile and Ohio road, where really
fine meal in the style of the best city
hotel is served to passengers. It is to
be regretted that a change Of schedule
will soon eonsign travellers ito much in
ferior accommodations elsewhere.
One day last week a Col. Gay, U. s..
A, who seems to be appropriately named,
stopped the mail trains, both on the
Memphis and Charleston and Mobile and
Ohio railroads, several hours at Corinth,
because some soldiers he expected did
not arrive as promptly as he wished.
One train was detained nearly or quite
fUe hours, and not only serious loss of
time in the delivery of the nails resulted
but the lives Of the passengers were en-
dangered by running the train out Of the
schedule timel The military hero was
quite overcome by his whisky potations
during a whole day, and the cars were at
last allowed to proceed by the second in
command, after his superior had thus
rendered himself oblivious Of all mum
dane considerations.
Residents of Corinth are UNQUALIFIED
in their praise Of the United States quar-
termaster at that post, a Lieut.. Col.
Wills, who is represented to be a high
toned gentleman, as well as an efficient
and accomplished officer.
The Seruggs house at Corinth is well
kept, and guests will find good beds and
q bOuntiful table.
The city Of Vicksburg was visited bv
q very violent wind and rain storm on
the lst inst, causing svere damage to
gardens and shlubbeTy.
"A Catholic fair in progress at Vicks-
burg is proving very successful.
The Aberdeen Examiner saws. We
have sad reports from the Mississippi bot
toms, "water, water everywhere, - har-
binger Of want and famine; thousands OF
farmers had staked their last dollar upon
the hazard Of this years crop. and in
the rapid torrent that courses over their
whilom fields, they read ruin irretriev-
ably. Thousands of horses, mules and
cattle have been drowned, and as the
waters slowly subside, the stencil of
the decaying carcasses is becoming
almost intolerable, and will doubtless
eventuate in much sickness. The loss
incident to this overflow is incalculable.
and the river towns and cities are
with people driven by the
waters from the swamp, who few weeks
ago comparatively well of, are now
utterly destitute and homeless.
