CRoP ITEMs.-A special to the Galveston
Ne,os from Marlin, (Texas), is as follows:
A dry, schorching drouth prevails, and
crops are considerably shortened. Not more
than half as much cotton as was made last
year, and twice as much corn.
A dispatch to the same paper from Calvert,
says at cotton in that locality will not aver
age more than one-third Of bale to the acre,
that the present drouth and extremely hot
weather are damaging the prospect daily.
Per contra, the Brownsville papers state
that a much larger amount of cott)n will be
shipped this year from the Rio Grande Valley
than ever before. The cotton worm has en-
tirely disappeared and picking is going on
bsiskly.
