WEATHER REPORTS BY TELEGRAPH
Our reports received tonight indicate OIL
the whole continuance of favorable con-
ditions surrounding the crop. Our Calves
ton telegram does not say what rain they
have had, but states that they are having
too much rain, but that the bottom crop IS
safe and very abundant. From New Or
leans our correspondent telegraphs that they
have had no rain except sectional thunder
storms. No reference is made to any rain
in our Montgomery dispatch, but the crop
is said to be developing promisingly, and
that the plant looks strong and healthy.
At Mobile they have had two heavy rains;
but the telegram adds that no complaint of
importance have been received, and that
the crop is believed to be progressing
promisingly. Our correspondents at Selma
say that it has rained there on three days,
that they are having too much rain, and on
that account the reports from some locali-
ties are less favorable. The have likewise
had rain at Macon on three days; nothing,
however, is said in the telegram about its
being injurious, but on the contrary our
correspondent says that the crop is pro-
crossing faVorably. From Columbus our
dispatch states that they have had some de-
lightful showers, and that the plant con-
tinues to develop finely. At Augusta, it
has been warm, sultry and wet, and cotton
generally looks well. They have had warm
and dry weather at Charleston, with the
exception of light showers, and crop reports
are increasingly favorable.
BOMBAY misunderstanding to our
cable dispatch received to-day, the ship
ments from Bombay to Great Britain for
the past week have been 5000 bales and to
the continent, 5000 bales, while the receipts
at Bombay, during the same time have been
5000 bales. Compared with last year there
is a decrease this year in the weeks ship
ments to Great Britain of 5000 bales, and
that the total movement since Jan. now
shows decrease in shipments of $1,000
bales over the corresponding period of 1871.
