The Eutaw Wing of Thursday last
SAYS: The cold snap, breaking in upon
the lovely, genial days sRring had sent
as a forerunner, sends chilling apprehen-
sions of blighted gardens and shortened
fruit crops. Immense bodies Of land are
in good state of preparation for planting,
a remarkably fine spell of weather hay
ing favored efforts for ploYing and bed
ding up the soil. Farmers are looking
brighter; everything portends a more
bountifu1 crop than for several yeaFs
past.
THE Gainesville Nelas of Saturday
says The late heavy rains have raised
the river out of its banks, and is still
rising. Steam boats arrive and depart
nearly every day, but from the depressed
condition of things generally, and the
short crops last year, their freights, we
Judge, are not large.
The cotton mill near Tusc9laOsai
uurned by th5 raiders during the war,
is now IN operation and turns out the
finest qualities Of cotton yarns and
thread,
The Selma Times of Sunday says :
We were conversing with a gentle
Elan on yesterday, from the neighbor-
hood of Harrellis cross roads, who speaks
encouragingly of the prospect for crop
in that locality. The planters have
their lands all bedded up and in GOndi-
ton, or very nearly so, to receive the
cotton seed when the time comes. They
commenced very generally, to Plant
corn last Monday, but the rains, which
commenced on Wednesday, have sas-
pended planting for the time being"

WILMINGTON, May 7th 1857.
Messrs. Editors lin reading your editorial in
to-day's issue on the funny and ancient manners
and opinions Of your friend the Gazette, feel
somewhat constrained to write few words to
Manh the writer in the Gazene of April z6th for
the effective manner in which he drew the atten-
ton OF the community to my humble and unprc-
tentious description of the work of the Delaware
Association As hope to have the pleasure and
privilege ofagain setting forth the progress oour
work, when circumstances seem to warrant It, /
would hereby notify our friend "P. Retsam,"
(read 1t backward if you please), to look out daily
Tor more from the same source. My object in
this Is two-fold and only partly selfish first, to
keep him reading your valuable paper believing
That it will at length do him good, and secondly,
to Keep him posted about the work of the Della
ware Association. My own strong desire herein
is that he may hereby learn that zoe never dabble
III politics. that we always act in consistency with
our principles and our public professions, which
are to improve Morally and Mentally the colored
people; and to do so feeling that we are .sdoing
only our duty to long depressed Glass;" and are
thus trying to make to them some amends for the
wrongs inflicted upon the whole race in Africa and
and America by us-the descendants of their
grandfather Noah. AGENT

TO The Citizens Of IYilnainato,. !.

To the Citizens of Wilmington
On the 18th day of June next, the National Dvi.
sion of the Sons of Temperance will hold It's Annual
Session in your beautiful city, and at 1t will be gath
cred Temperance men from every section OF our
Onion, as well as from the Canadas and other British
possessions Of North America The Order OF the
Sons of Temperance in Wilmington, especially, are
making every effort to make the reception OF these
distinguished visitors and phanthropists fitting
one. one which, as National Body they are just
ly entitled to receive and which little Delaware with
her big hearted Sons and Daughters, should have
sufficient interest in make at least such reception
rs will not detract from her established reputation
for hospitality But, and 1t is always right to speak
the truth, our Order Is II small one In Wilmington,
and as a consequence, our means are limited. We
are truly g0rry that we compelled to make this
confession, when II should be exactly to the contrary
but the fault is not Every citizen of our State
wards, should belong to an institution whose cardi-
nal principles aie Love Purity and Fidelity, and If
such was the case, aid would not now be solicited for
the purpose we have mentioned. Therefore, as a
matter Of necessity we are compelled by this means
to ask your liberal aid for undertaking. 1t is i'm
peratively nscessary that we should raise money
and hence we respectfully solicit from you such con-
tributionsa your generosity sha dictate, assuring
you that every cent contributed shall be honorably
spent for the purpose named or II after the reception
Is over there should be balance remaining in tine
hands Of the Committee, 1t will be applied for the
fru all that intoxicates; the success of which is
essential to our success as nation.
Besides contributions OF money, we are also de-
sirous OF fin ling homes for friends in the families
Of our citizens, whilst they are with ns. Persons
who can accommodate one or two, or more, during
the week they are in Wilmington, will confer great
kindness, by notifying any one Of the undersigned
committee Of the fact.
In making this appeal to the citizens of Whining
