DALLAS, WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. |

March 10, 1851.
A heavy thunderstorm PASSED over thid
county at an early hour this morning. the
rain fell very fast for several hours, deiugins
streets, sewers, roads and fields. In al por-
lions of the county visited II put stop to
blowing. 1t will take three straight days oil
sunshine to put fields In condition to start the
plows again. Farmers are having q run OF
bad luck lately They have met
heavy difficulties In getting their
cropa in the ground, but do not seem ut all
discouraged they have plenty OF time ahead
Several met this morning say they do not In
tend TO plant as much cotton as they Intended,
nor as much as they did last year. The rule
with all should be: corn IT, live on, cotton FOR
yevenue.
Trade In tho city to-day was very quiet. Vi
course the roads are In bad order and condi'
ton, and no one essayed to pass them unlefs
upon urgent business. Visitors were few In
number. The receipts Of cotton and general
produce amounted TO little.
Ati O'Clock five passenger coaches filled
with immigrants, passed west over
the Texas Il Pacific. The cars
now run to Eastland, and the rails
are laid thr yer forty miles beyond. These
people are going TO all points west of Fort
Worth. Some will leave the road and go to
adjoining counties, and some they know not
where, but TO point they can make llveli-
hOld.
