The Black Hills.

Cheyenne, August TO- General Crook and Col.
Stanton returned here. to-day, from the Black
Hills. They report that the miners were prepar
ng to leave, covering up the richest odes to pre-
vent their being discovered till such time they
return. There were about 1900 miners in the
Hills.
There were Indians in the vicinity, and few
had been seen. Those at the agencies were still
demanding that the miners be driven out. Some
gold was panned out in the presence Of the party,
which yielded Is cents to the pan. There is an
abundance of water and grrss, also timber for
building, but the mine was not of the highest
meIchantabe value. The whole country is well
adapted to grazing and farming. Plof. Jennings
party are still exploring the Hills, and will prob.
ably remain until the middle Of October. General
Crook leaves tomorrow, for Omaha.

Crop Reports.

Milwaukee. August 10. The Sentinel to-mor-
row, publishes crop reports from 80 Of the most
important counties in the State. Winter wheat
is now nearly harvested it shows splendid
crop, in many portions of the State the best ever
known. The whole is fairly up to the average,
while more bushels to the acre will be realized
than anticipated.
Spring wheat will be more than the usual crop.
In many places clinch bugs have destroyed whole
fields, but this is compensated for in the excessive
growth in other localities.
Rye will be fair crop.
Oats will yield an abundant harvest.
Barley will be about the usual crop.
The hay crop will be nearly double that of last
year.
Corn is generally late, and has suffered severely
from the drought. Still, with fair weather for q
few weeks the yield will be fair.
Potatoes suffered somewhat from bugs and the
drought, but the crop will be very large.
The flax crop will be almost failure. Alto

The Floods.

Memphis, August 10. The Avalanche has a
lengthy review of the situation along the river.
In the Memphis district, the summing up of the
cotton already in the water is about 1000 acres,
while the situation is more hopeful than few
days since. Sleepless vigilance is necessary on
the part of those whose lands are threatened. The
danger to the five plantations in Walnut Bend, GO
miles below here, is from the breakwater in the
St. Francis, which last week extended up to
Wittsburg distance of 80 miles.
The Crops.
A we'll known planter of North Mississippi
writing from Atlanta, Ga, under date of the 9th
inst to firm here, says "The crop for sixty miles
east of Memphis have suffered very much for
want of rain. From there to Decatur they are
pretty good. Going south from Birmingham to
Montgomery, ore hundred miles, and thence east
sxty-fve miles, through the cotton country. l
have never seen such an entire failure of the
crops. Thousands of acres will not make FIVE
bushels of corn per acre, and not over 80 pounds
of seed cotton from Opelika to Columbus, Ga. it
really looks like starvation. 1t IS dry and hot
that even trees are dying and shedding their
leaves as in autumn. All the rain in the world
could not change the result now. From West
Point here the crops present very sorry appear
ance. Corn will make sbout seven bushels per
acre, and cotton about three hundred pounds per
acre.
