DUCED PRICES until the 1st day of
September next. Straw and Cloth

being given. About September 10Th
1 will commence to occupy Store-room
No. 25, Franklin Street. This room
is on the Southeast corner of Frank

door East of my present place of bust
ness, and Immediately opposite the
Grocery House of ]. j. Crusman
Being the same room occupied by Geo.
Alwell, as a confectionery, last year.
When visiting town notice for the
place, as l shall have it literally
placarded. l expect this Fall to offer
the people Boots, Shoes, Hats, &c., at
prices especially adapted to the exE
tremely hard times. l am fully aware
of the failure of crops, and duly ap-
preciate the embarrassing position in
which it places the farmer, as well as
the merchant, the mechanic, and all
who eat meat and bread; and in view
of these difficulties I shall have my
Shoes made especially adapted to
present emergencies, and will offer
them at such prices as will place them
within the reach of all, notwithstand-

LETTER FROM KENTUCKY.

DEAR OLD CHRoNIoLE:-I hav,
been thinking some time to send you |.
few lines, but have been waiting few
months for the elimination of the
severest drouth known within the
memory of the oldest inhabitants 81
this county, which was happily brought
| to close on the night of the 18th inst,
by raining hard thirty-six hours, and
then slowly for twelve more without
ceasing in the whole forty-eight hours.
So everybody's farm in this region is
watered to overhowing, and dry COM
plants, hauling water for stock, &C.,
are ended for this season. Now after
all is over can tell you the effects of
the drouth. In ours and portions of
the adjoining counties, Mercer, Boyle,
Marion, and Nelson counties, with but
few exceptions, the corn and oat crops
are quite failure. Grasses are dried
and parched brown, except clover.
Hay about half crop. Wheat and rye
good. Fruits small in size and quanti-
ty, with few exceptions, some shrivel-
ed ON the trees. Grapes and sweet
potato crops the soundest, heaviest and
finest l ever saw in quality and guam
tity. Irish potatoes, cabbage, and other
vegetables almost total failure. Far
mers are not not able to fatten their
meat, and most of the hogs are sold
and driven out to other counties and
to Indiana. Some think of fattening
their hogs on wheat. 1t is a rare coin
cidence here that corn, wheat and rye
areall the same price, selling at 80 cts
and $1.00 per bushel. The tobacco
crop here dried up, and played out
perfectly. know of only one man
that planted and all his plants went |
up in the drouth.
Yours, &C.,

The first six stations are in the river
basin. The last four are on the level
pleateau, which extends over the
northeastern part of the county, and
probably more nearly approaches the
general elevation ofthe county. On the
south side of the Cumberland river,
the undulations swell into considerable
hills.
STREAMs.-The Cumberland river is
one of the finest and most beautiful
streams in the country. 1t enters the
county near its southeastern extremi-
", runs in a northerly course, until it
passes the town of Clarksville, aud then
makes a great bend, and leaves the
county near its southwestern corner.
With an unchangeable channel, rock
bound. with banks high and precipitous
in places, and its rich bottom lands,
among the best in the State, spreading
ont here and there on either side, il
presents to the traveller passing up or
down. a picture hard to be excelled in
beauty. The Cumberland is a fine,
bold stream, and presents quite con-
trast to most of the rivers In the west.
1t is navigable for boats of good size
about els ght months in the year. The
tributary streams within the bounda.
ries of the county are numerous, and

several years, owing doubtless to un-
favorable seasons, the Irish potatoe
has not done so well. This vegetable
was largely exported ten years ago, but
more recently, not a sufficient quantity
has been raised to meet the home de-
mand. For early varieties, the Early
Rose and Russet are preferred. Some
farmers still raise the London Lady
which is very rich, but not so early mol
so productive as those mentioned
For market, the late varieties-PeacI
Blow and Mountain Sprout-wert

| have known, In extreme cases, 40C
| bushels of the latter to be produced
upon one acre. The usual average il
100 bushels. Rich uplands are much
better suited to the growth of this veg
etable than bottom lands, though OF
the latter the vines will grow more
vigorously All the garden vegetable:
do well. For the growth Of hops, the
soil seems especially adapted.
FRUITs.-We cannot undertake tC

the apple nor peach tree is long lived
except in special localities. While
some excellent apples and peaches are
grown, the compact clay, especially IL
the northern part of thecounty, check:
the growth of the roots, and induces q
premature decay in the trees. The

as satisfactory returns as any othel

of cherries rarely ever bear. Dwar

and the trees are long lived. Som,
