CRors,-This season, up TO this
time, has been an uniavorable one
for crops, late Hosts, protraetcd
and washing rains, cut worms, aud
other drawbacks, have placed tho
crops in bad condition. Corn is
backward, cotton is siokly, with u
bad stand, and still in the grass
4 fow weeks of good weather will
probably put n different phase on
things, but il is time tho change were
taking place, IL n good crop is made,

Tn. SALLIE llAYSEs.-Wo had the pleas.
urc Of meeting Mcssrs. Roy, Ballard and
Duggan, OF the above boat, th, first Of the
week, who have como up for the purpose
Of having a new shaft mado for the boat.
They left the boat on Thursday Of last
week, ut Magnolia. She had been down
to Halls bluff co miles lclow Magnolia,
where she took in good freight Of assort-
ed merchandise for various places along
the river, principally for this city, and
when half mile above Magnolia broke the
main sha # ofthe wheel. She now lies at Mag
waiting the shaft which is being made at
Bailey's foundry here. Mr.. Roy informs
us that he expects to be ready to leave here
about the first Of the coming week. Lie
will go down the river in skiff and with
good luck will reach Magnolia about the
LIST proximo. The boat will then come up
to Dallas, where during the summer she
will rcft and be ready for the fall trade.
Mr.. Roy further informs us that they
had good load down, the last trip, went
with it 10 Halls bluff, and will bring to
this city Salt, Sugar, Coffee and Flour.
Since writing the above we have received
letter from Mr.. Is. Ballard dated at
Magnolia on the 18th, the day before tho
accident. His arrival here and reporting
personally renders the publication of the
letter unnecessary. Mr.. D., as well as
every other person who have navigated the
river from this point to Magnolia report
the river as good navigable stream, if the
overhanging timber was cleaned off. They
all unite in the assertion that it will be
successfully and probably navigated TO this
city z So i'sl % .'s.s '"' o.. -

"sPecifcdiy deicgatd poieers," begged for
II, pleaded for II, prayed for II, and fought
ioi it; but there was no eye TO see, no ear

of discomfort had conccntratedin the Wing
party, and with the eloquence of Clay and
Webster, they, insisted, that liberal con-
s'ruction Of the Constitution was nccessa-
ny, that the instrument must be spread to
answer and meet q great many desirable
purposes besides that Of prescribing the
limits of that peculiar institution of the
States, upon which so much talent had been
employed in defining its powers. But the
Wigs insisted that tile United States Cor.
lrrnment must have porer-a great mistake
about tho proper place Of power. They

party continued to pull, tug at, md stretch
