Those of our Democratic friends who
desire to subscribe for a New York
Paper will find none that equals The
World in ability, or that SO fearlessly
and clearly advocates Democratic
principles. In the news from all parts
of the world, it is complete, and its
editorials on all subjects are vigorous
and logical. To the farmer it is un-
valuable: teaches him many things
that tend to promote his best interests
which lie sortly needs his eyes opened
to. The World is now doing great
work in behalf OF the Democratic party,

Our planters are hanging on to tho
cheering hope Of q cotton crop, large,
and consequently remunerative. The
long continued drought has cut off
the corn in many places almost en-
tirely-the belt Of this drought was
through the parish from west to east,
with this city about the center of the
belt, and extended some ten miles
north and south. In some places
corn is still green and flourishing,
notwithstanding its having been sub
jected to the want of rain for as
much as eight weeks; this, however,
can Ike attributed to causes, promi-
nent among which is deep ploughing,
the free use of cotton seed as a fer
tilizer, and late planting. Cotton is
doing remarkably well, and cur plant
ers seem cheerful and happy in anti
cipation of bales of the staple this
fall, and rolls Of money that comes in
sequence. Mr.. Med. Belcher, on Red
river near Montgomery, informs US
that he intends to begin picking on
or about the Goth inst.
