Clarendon,

The Press says: sit is generally conced ed
that our farmers are very far behind in their
farmlng operations the present year. This is
due to the unusually late spring and wet cold
weather that marked the beginning OF the
present season. Just at this time there Is
considerable reason to fear a continuance OF
the dry spell, which must very materlally retard
and hinder the getting Of good stands Of cot
ton, the ground being entirely too dry to
cause the seed planted to germlnate. Tbis is
10 be regretted in view of the fact that the
planting season is already far advanced, and
great necessity exists Of securing On that &C
count good slaads at once. We hear some COM
plants of detective seed among our planters,
doubtless arising from harvesting Inc crop
too wet and consequent heating OF the seed
to such ! degree as to impair their vitality. If
1t should be found necessary to plant over,
we fear many ofthem will find good seed hard
to procure, and may in consequence have to
plough up and change lands Intended for cot
ton into corn. Corn, though small for the
season, is generally looking. well, and prom
ises, with good seasons and proper culture,
GOOD results.n

Chesterfield.

The Democrat says: Farms and gardens
In this vicinity have been suffering severely
from drought for several weeks. Much OF the
cotton seed planted has not yet come up, and
it is thought will not do 30 until we have rain.
The gardens have suffered severely, and are
several weeks more backward than atthis
time last year."

The market for Foreign Exchange during the week
has shown a declining tendency owing chiefly to the
cessation Of the demand for remitances against bonds
imported from Europe under the recent panic arising
ont OF the Alabama discussion. Rates for co days
bills OF leading drawers have declined from lO9; to lO
and the demand is dull and prices weak at the close The
unchanged discount rate OF the Bank Of England has
tended TO diminish the difference between 60 days
and short sight sterling the market for the former
being supported chiefly by the scarcity OF commercial
hills the relative values cotton this side and at
Liverpool preventing free export Stocks of this staple
appear TO be accommodating, which, when moved, would
favor lower prices for sterling At this time last year
somewhat similar exceptional influences sustained prices
