early part of the Spring had put them
we'll up with their crop work. Ten days
OF wet weather inclusive, from Goth inst.
to date, has thrown them back, and grassy
crops are common; but, taking into con-
sideration the very backward season, 1
think tho prospects for good crops OF cot
ton, corn and potatoes ara encouraging."
