A private letter from Lawrence county,
Ala, dated the 18th inst, gives discours-
ging news from that section. The
westhsr has been very bad, and planters,
as = general thing have been unable to
do any work. The frost of the 14th
killed ali the peSches not destroyed by
previous cold snaps. Continuous rains
have prevailed, and farmers are much
out of heart st the prospect.
A writer IN the Prairie Farmer calls
attention to Improvement in varieties OF
corn. He says that if IS much attention
vas paid to this subject as lie paid to i'm
proVement in potatoes and grspes,a hun
ared millions OF bushels might be added
