Will, also, be very large ciop of wheat In THU

THE WHEAT ABOUT MiDpLETowS.
The Transcript says Tho wheat Is looking
well throughout this region. A gentleman Of
TIL, town. who recently passed through the upper
part oil Kent county, Md says that the wheat
looks remarkably well Ia all that part OF the
county. But the hest field he saw was that oil

fras and Galena, which was far in advance Of all
the others.
DORCHESTER COUNTY.
The Cambridge Democrat, 21st inst, says:-
The wheat crop looks splendidly, and from every
section of the county we hear that the prospects
for an abundant harvest were never better. As
to the peach crop there appears to be diversity
Of opinios. Some old growers OF the fruit say
that the crop Is nearly II not entirely, destroyed
while there are others equally positive in the
assertion that the buds have been but slightly II
at all, injured Let us hope for the best, at least
until we have something more definite TO go
upon.
SALEM COUNTY, Nd.
The Salem Standard of the 21st says THE
wheat crop throughout the county, rs general
lhlng, looks quito promising, being in some
fields six Inches in height We trust it will con-
tinuc in good condition till harvest.
KENT COUNTY.
The Smyrna Times, OF the 21st, says THE
peaches are not hurt much, If any, in this local
ity. The recent snow storms passed round us.
The trees arc blooming and the vast orchards
look beautiful.
AROUND RICHMOND, VA.
The Richmond Dispatch, of the Goth, says:-
On Sunday, the 11th the thermometer was at
freezing point, 80 degrees. and we had snow,
rain, and hail, all day. Last Sunday, the 18th,
just one week later, we had summer weather, the
Thermometer reaching &c, and followed by Sc

several hours. Four days last week there was
frost aud on two mornings there was quite

and found them but little injured. The peaches

The Weather, and COttOn.Flck-
ing.

We have had one of the finest seasons
sver known for cotton picking. Al
though the rains of August did some
damage, the fields Of St. Landry are
white with the staple. High prices are
paid for laborers, and cotton-pickers are
everywhere in demand: We learn from
old planters, and from those who have
kept a record Of the seasons, that we
have not had such a cold and dry Octo-
Der since the year 1916, when there
was no rain until late in November.
Our roads are SO completely covered
with dust, under the drying effects of
the prevailing north winds, that it is
suspended in the atmosphere from morn
ing until night. But it is eminently
favorable to the cotton planter. Our
cisterns want filing, the ponds are dry
ing up, the country feels the drouth,, but
the cotton planter rejoices. 4..

The Mails.

We had occasion some time ago to
complain ct the irregularity Of the
mails betweenthis place and New Orleans.
We saw shortly afterwards similar CON-
plants in the city press, from the
merchants and business men of New
Orleans. Since then. We have noticed
some improvement, the mail matter trcn
the City m more regularly, but
there is still room fer Improvement.
Why is it that the mail does not reach
Opelousas until the next night after its
departure from New Orleans? 1t leaves
Algiers at 8 o'clock A. d., reaches
Brashear at 10 M, and should reach
New Iberia by IL. P. NJ, and Opelousas
by 10 A. NJ, or 10 NJ, the next day.
This would enable merchants and
business men to answer their letters by
the same mail. Instead of this the
mail that leaves New Orleans at s o'clock
A. NJ, does not reach Opelousas until 7
OF 8 o'clock P. NJ, the next day. There
is culpable negligence somewhere. The
mail that should come through with the
utmost ease, in thirty hours, now re-
quires thirty six or eight hours.
The stage drivers at this end of the
route, say it is owing to the delay OF
the boats, which consume twenty four
hours between Berwick's Bay and
Iberia. To our friends in Attakapas,
it may make but little difference; for
they can answer communications by
return mail, but at Opelousas and Wash
ington, it is a very serious Inconvenience
to business men, to postmasters, and to
the reading public. Where is the
delay? Who is to blame? AS we are
unrepresented in Congress, will the
Postmaster at New Orleans have the
matter Investigated. and the remedy
applied? srl a.. ~ .-,s.s.

Z Of the newly appointed Secretary Of
War, little was known out Of his own
State, prior to his appointment. He is
comparatively a young man, being un-
der forty years Of age. Gen. VIM. W.
Belknap, the successor Of Gen. Ravlins
to the portfolio of War. was a practicing
lawyer at Keokuk, Iowa. His appoint
ment is said to be due to Gen. Sherman,
with whom he wasa great favorite, du-
ring the late war. He entered the military
service as Major of the 18th Regiment
of Iowa volunteers, and, at the close Of
the war, was a Major General command
ing a Division in the Seventeenth Army
Corps. He served at n time IN Gen.
McPherson's staff, and also on the staff
of Gen. Sherman. He is described as a
fns looking man. of light complexion,
with q tall and commanding figure. He
was offered . high position in the regu.
lar army, on the restoration of peace,
but declined TITO resume the practice

Departure Of CoIored Troops.

g The colored troops which have been

season, broke up their camp, and left
for New Orleans some days ago. They
carried with them some twenty or more
eolored women, many of them leaving
their husbands behind them. These
sswards Of the nation" while encamped
in our midst, having nothing to do but
to perambulate our streets, made love to
these susceptible "ladies of COLOR" and
wooed not unsuccessfully the sable
Aspasias Of the town, who followed them
to New Orleans. While our citizens
generally feel a sense of relief at the
absence Of this nuisance, our working
freedmen who were despoiled of their
wives and sweethearts, are jubilant over
the departure Of those who came to
protectthem. .tu6A" ".4-a.n. iaaG
