EDITOR SPIRIT: Some time having

give you a short account of what is
transpiring here.
Crops are short. Oats fell below o
medium crop. Corn will not be an
average crop. Hay, very scarce. To-
bacco at present does not promise a
very large crop, but as the weather is
very favorable we may have larger
crop than the present prospect would
indicate
In the gossiping circles we have
nothing out of the common except a

trates of sundry persons for violation
of the liquor laws. which is drawing

To begin with, l will say that our
crop prospects so far for this season
are good. Wheat is yielding reasona-
bly, well. Oats are good,and corn prom.
ises to be full crop.
So far our planters have a fine pros
pect for tobacco this year, in this locali-
ty, and every thing prospects well, not
only for the farmers but for the Democ-
racy. - H.S'fE - - t'a5ls
