The Crops.

The cotton crop of West Tennessee
according to the report of our cotton
exchange as compiled from twenty
four replies to questions sent forth
among as many neighborhoods, is
between nine and ten days later than
last year. The acreage is slightly less,
labor is ON the average, working salts
iactOrily. About half report their
crops very grassy, and the condition Of
crop is less favorable than last year,
owing to too much rain. The stands
are in the main good, In north Mis-
sissippj, twenty.seven responses to
circulars were received, and a slight
increase of acreage is reported. The
stands are generally good though
a few report them poor, and in
a majority of neighborhoods
the condition of the crop is more ia.
vOrable than last year, though from a
week to ten days late. In north Ar
kansaw twenty-seven reports were re-
ceived and the increased acreage ex-
ceeds north Mississippi. Too much
rain is reported over the north Mis-
sissippi section and the crops in the
main are grassy, also about twelve days
late. A summing up of the three sec
tons shows a slight increase of acre
age; too much rain and less favorable
weather than last season over three
fourths of the country, and a lateness
of ten days as compared with last sea-
son. About One.third have their
crops in good condition nearly a third
in fair average conditions and a little
over a third very grassy and weedy.
Laborers are doing well in three
fourths of the country, but show a
slight falling off as compared with last
year.

Northern Railroad.


Paducah News, May ISL
After SO long a time it will be graft
Tying news to the people of this entire
section OF country to know that the
two roads above named have been put
into such shape as to insure an early
connection between this city and
Memphis, as well as to give us an east
ern outlet, which will not depend
upon the yea or nay of the Louisville
and Nashville road. 1t is known to
our citizens that Mr.. Q. p. Hunting
don has for some time had designs
upon these roads with a view Of estab.
fishing an Independent route through
from the Atlantic coast. This de
sign" has eliminated finally in the
purchase of the above named routes of
travel. Sundays Courier journal
says Of the matter: "The Paducah
and Elizabethtown is a recognized
company, under the control of H. w.
Smithers, who represent the Amster-
dam bondholders. The preferred stock
OF the company amounts to 81, 500, 600,
the common to $500, 900, the first
mortgage bonds to $500, 900, and the
seconds to 81, 100000. The road from
Memphis is not yet completed be-
tween fifty and sixty miles remain to
be built, and it is in the hands of H.
w. Smithers as receiver. Upon what
terms the roads were purchased is not
known, but it is understood a large
sum in cash is paid, and the remainder
is settled by mortgage bonds on the
lines of the consolidated company
The two roads will be recognized and
consolidated, and possession taken of
the property August l. In one year
the line to Memphis must be finished.
These are all the facts, as far as can
be gathered. The proposition Of Mr..
Huntington was accepted by Mr..
Smithers, subject to the approval of
his principals in Amsterdam. Yes
terday this approval was received by
cable"
