In the upper counties, wherever the
wheat was we'll advanced it has been Sc
riOusly injured, if not killed outright.
Around Hartsville there were several tracts
of very fine wheat well advanced, notably
that on the Andrews farm. It was knee
high, and if any wheat was killed that will
be the first to show. Some believe that
jOinted wheat will not show the damage it
has received until harvest time. Others
boldly affirm that il hasn't been hunt.
Peaches, apples, and other fruit are gener-
ally reported as killed entirely, but we do
not think it will turn out that way. We
found live peaches on a tree thoroughly ex-
posed, but were unable 10 find live apples;
yet apples are considered TO have been
hurt less than peaches. Round here to.
baccO plants have here and there been hurt.
Some farmers have lost whole beds, but as
a general thing they escaped damage. On
the Ridge the freeze was severer. and
greater mischief was played with tobacco
plants, but there are still plenty Of them.
In Macon, Smith and Jackson some dam
age has been done. The dry, cold winds Of
the past few days have greatly aided the
frost in destroying plants.

Here and there small patches Of very
forward wheat is damaged, but the general
crop is measurably intact. The promise is
still abundant There are very few peaches
left in this section and the early apples are
cut very short. Nearly all the cotton has
been planted with unusual care. Vastly
more small grain and vegetables are being
cultivated, than ever known before in this
section. Old citizens tell US that on the
18th, 18th and 10Th Of April, 1S49, the frost
killed all the fruit and early crops Of this
section. And yet that year proved 10 be
the most abundant crop year in the history
Of the country.
