T. Times.
We cannot but sympathize with the
! hundreds upon hundreds OF Government
clerks who are now being dismissed ia
Washington because of the limitation
put BY Congress upon the appropriations
for lne conduct Of the several Depart
ments. Ii vas very hard on them,
though it is not SO very hard upon the

pleasant to them 10 know, however, that
there are great many productive pur
suits, trades and businesses throughout
the land which are in want Of efficient
aud industrious employees. They can
get IS day, for instance, at bTicklsying,
and nearly as much at other Respectable
occupations. Let them set to work 81

Not word of censure Of the Radical
members of Congress who rsised their
own salary from $1,000 to 5000 per an
mum but heartiess SCOTS st unfortunate

resort TO bricklaying and other respeeta-
BILE occupations. And yet the writer OF
The paragraph knows very well what
extremities Of misery in many, many
helpless, hopeless families have been
caused by the crDsl and hesrlless action
Of Congress. Hundreds on hundreds
of clerks thrown cut of employment

lilies deprived of the very means of Hv-

DRY to heaven against the cruelty OF

The Brandon Republican says: We
are fearful that the continued wet
weather has injured the cotton crop very
materially. IL has rained at some point
in this county every day during the
month Of July, and whist few isolated
farms have not had enough, most of
them have had entirely too much for the
cotton crop. All the late corn is spIen-
did, but most of the early planting was
materially injured by the June drouth.
Sweet potatoes peas, goobers, etc, are
very promising.
