The Southern Crops.

Our accounts from all parts Of
the South, from Virginia to Texas,
give the most favorable reports OF
the condition Of the growing crops.
In Virginia, the CaroInas and
Georgia, where, last year, there
was such a damaging drouth, the
wheat, oats and grass look un-
usually thrifty and strong. In
Tennessee there is the same pros
pect. In Alabama and Mississippi,
the wheat is farther advanced, and
growing so luxuriantly that the
cold spell of two weeks ago was
declared an advantage to it, In
arresting the flow Of sap that
might have produced rust. Some
of the cotton and corn in AIissis-
sippi was injured by the late frost
and had to be replanted, but as
there was not much out of the
ground this injury is triding. In
Texas everything is out Of the
ground and growing finely. The
ems, with the exception of the
about Easter, have been fa-
BE, and along the lower
sissippi from Memphis down,
The planters in the most cheer
ful spirits. hey declare that If
there should bs no June overflow
to destroy their labors, they will
have one Of the finest crops they
ever raised, The colored people
are, as a general thing, working
and the demand for labor
has been largely satisfied BY Che

LITTLE THINGS. love the
man or woman who is honest and
tue in little things. We always
believe they viii be the same in
large ones. Honor is manifested
in the smallest act as truly as in
the greatest. The theft Of post
age stamp shows the thief as plain
ly as the theft of a $40 bin, and
he who breaks faith with a child
to whom he has promised a stick
of candy, would also break faith
with men in more important mat

these reasons Southern and Western

IT IS RIGHT. Yes, it is custom
airy for bridegroom to present
wedding-ring to his bride. The
costliness of it should depend
somewhat upon the pecuniary
ability Of the giiver, and its style
should be determined by his own
taste and Judgment. A plain gold
ring is always in good taste. The
wedding-ring is worn on the third
finger Chat is the one next the

That BUTTER Some wag says
the woman who made the butter
which he bought last week is re-
spectfully requested to exercise
more judgment in proportioning
the ingredients. The last batch
had too much hair in it for butter,
and not quite enough for a water
fall. There is no sense in making
yourself bald-headen, if butter is
thirty-fve cents a pound.
