A MAMMOTH century plant, forty
feet In hight and weighing three and
a half tons, has been shipped from
near Jacksonville, Fla, to parties In
New York. The plant Is OH the eve
OF blooming a second time. and Is
therefore nearly two hundred years
old. It may well be doubted whether
In beauty or grandeur of appearance
this plant has It's equal on the conti-
nent. Its leaves extend over an area
the diameter Of which Is not less than
eighteen feet, while tho central shaft
or column on which the blooms are to
appear. though only a few weeks old,
has already attained an altitude Of flf-
teen feet. 1t Is still growing at the
rate of about six inches day, and will
continue so tor about three weeks
longer, when all Its upper portion will
become clothed with mass of magnit-
icsnt, bell. shaped blossoms Of purest
white. hanging In dense clusters; and
extending for = space Of not less than
four feet from the apex downward. A
large price was paid by the purchaser
for this magnificent specimen, which
can hardly fail Of attracting great at
tention during the period Of Its flores

The Richmond Register tells this !:
AT. q, dance given by L. Coyle, In
Kingston, a few ni9hts' since, there
were a number Of married ladies pres
ent who brought. their babies along.
Feeling Inclined to trip the "light
fansastic" round or two, they left
their progenies in an adjoining room
In charge Of Mr.. Coyle and Joe Maunin,
who had kindly volunteered to be ma
mas to the innocent al iaterim. Dur
Ing the absence Of the fond parents,
Tom and Joe concluded to swap clothes
and In short time every baby sported
him or herself in foreign habilments.
The mothers, after an hour or so's de-
votion to Terpsicherean delights. took
each their baby vestments and the dear
little forms therein contained, and re-
tired to their respective and once happy
homes. On preparing the little ones
for the CRIB, sexes had changed-girls
were boys and boys were girls-and
with one universal yell the outraged
maternals set out on II baby hunt. At
last account most all had, by the straw
berry mark succeeded In recovering
tho iost, heirs but Joe aud Coyle are
said to be none when any Of those
mothers are In or about Kingston"

THE

Just now there is a great demand fol
crop news. People Of all classes, but
particularly cotton factors, are inter.
ested in knowing what the prospect is.
what is the bresdth Of land under cult.
walton, how the hand" are working.
whether the weather is favorable or the
reverse, and what is the possible yield
per acre. Farmers and planters them
selves are interested in knowing Of the
crop prospect. They want to know
what their neighbors are doing, and
what the possible yield for the year may
be, for upon that depends the average
price they are to receive for 50 much OF
the staple as they may have to put
upon the market. For these reasons
we have again to request of
our country subscribers, and OF
our country exchanges particularly,
that they first write to Us, if only a line
or two, giving US news of the growing
crops, especially cotton in their vicinity;
and that the latter aid in the dissemina-
ton Of such news by accommodating for
every one of their issues the crop reports
of their several localities. The State of
Mississippi has provided for the eoIlee-
ton and publication of crop reports,
which are made every month, in read
able and comprehensive form, by the
C,.yEAz,a EsogI al E1oEo-s, -,,hEs,l-l
at Jackson. In the absence Of any such
provision in Arkansas, Alabama and
we propose that the farmers
and planters Of these States shall find in
the APPEAL all the information which
such an arrangement by their State
governments could afford. TO do so.
properly, we must have the help of all
the planters. Shall we have it?
