THE RICE CROP,

The two important products of the country
which have been most strikingly acted on by
the ohnnges brought about by the war arc rice
and sugar. One, staple of South Carolina
and produced TO limited extent in Georpia,
North Carolina and Louisiana; and the other of
Louisiana, but cultivated in Florida and Texas.
In both cases tho product ut present is but
fraction of the former growth, and they will
recover their previous position moro slowly
Than any other prominent article of culliya-
ton. The crop of rice in the South will, we
think, increase very gradually, partly in con-
sequence Of tho severe fever TO which all white
laborers who may engage in tho cultivation
arc exposed, the considerable expense which
may be necessary in placing in order tho
banks, bitches md trunks, which were neg.
lccted during the wnr and aro much out OF re-
pair, and the fact that, If no disaster happens.
tho crop will this year, notwithstanding the
limited growth Of the article, produce nearly
sufficient rice for tho consumption of the coun.
try, which may, wo suppose, be estimated at
40,090 10 $4,000 tierces.
The home article is at present projected by
q duty which gives IL On advantage over Ran
goon, Bassein, Java, Brazil and othor foreign
rice, but the moment an excess is produced
over the wants Of the United States the surplus
Will have to find o market in the outside world,
where 1t will bc compelled to compete with
the cheap product Of tbs tropics, Az tho com.
meneement of the present season the rice plan
ters Of South Carolina were hopeful Of hand

may In some inslanees be realised, tho foods

Showing probable crop for tho present
year Of 1850 ticrccs of clean rice. These
figures show larger probable crop than
some of our readers may hnYo imagined, but o
largo portion will be consumed near Tho place
of growth; particularly will this bc the case

Charles IN alone consuming before the war
over 1000 tiorccs per annum aud only about
4o00 during the year just terminating. The
crop OF Louisiana will also, to great extent,
bo used Mt home. Tho probable growth of this
last mentioned State is somewhat uncertain,
and somo of the lnte estimates place il at an
amount much above our figures, if we under
stand their statement. a Plnqucmino cores
pondont Of tho Now Orleans Pirdyune says that
il mny double what it was before tho war, and
states that tho crop may reach l3,O00,OO0 to
l4,o0o,000 lbs, which, if fc means that il will
produce that SIM after being milled, il would
amount to near 10000 tiorccs of clean, or
double our estimate.
The above calculations arc only approxima-
tive, as il is very difficult to procure reliable
information from the planting region, and tho
above figures may bo very seriously interforotl
with by unproritious weather before the crop
Is secured. The yield of tho present season,
even if the above should be realized, will only
be about one-fifth Of the anto- bellum product
when fair crop Of the Cnrolinas and Georgia
amounted TO about 200 QUO tierces.
