WEATHER AND CRoPS.-On MondiS
morning last, at about O'CLOCK ono oi
the heaviest rain falls that has Vls'teo this
section ofcountry for long time began
and continued unremittingiy up TO p H.
All the bottom lands were flooded tenn
porarily and the creeks and streams came
out booming. The big Bayou sara was
on an unusual -"tare" and what was
comparatively but a purling rivulet De-
fore the storm was suddenly transformed
into a crushing stream of troubled wa
ters.n The point of land opposite HON
or;ch,s sawmill was cut off considerably
nv the rushing torrent which frees the
mil, from the danger that has heretofore
4,,xo,tened it. Near the mouth Of the
stream q large cave occurring on the up
ner or coal yard side will 60 iar TO-
wards re lei wing the town from 1urther Gu
..o.cbments. From present appea arances
A.. +endency of the current is to the up
nor, side. and thus will a danger TO Bay
-, Sara be removed which has threaten
~ b.r for SO many years, and which mas
heen the occasion or the prete21 1or 'ie
,vaste or misapplication of large amounts
of money in the past.
The rain has been Of very serious def'
-;,,ent to the cotton crop. Many OF tn
