A young southern girl has almost
discarded her hat at the seaside this
summer and has appeared at all hours
of the day land even in the ball room,
it is said) with her head covered with
an artistically-knotted bright silk
handkerchief Nor, indeed, have these
handkerchiefs always been of silk, for
she has not disdained the use even of
the ordinary bandanna, such as the old
southern "aunties" wear. Though the
adornment was regarded as specially

it is to be doubted that it would be be-

The weather for the past few days has been
extremely rainy, aud farm work has been
almost suspended.
The storm of Monday greatly damaged
crops of all kinds. Corn and cotton alike
shared the fate of being laid in the mud !:
and their roots being broken, they are not
likely to mature ais they otherwise would.
The cotton crop in this section is very
good. 1t is now beginning to open Corn
is also very good, especially lowland corn.

ETA JANE, Sept. 5th.-The storm Of last
week is nothing new now. Its effect upon
our crop are plainly to be seen. Corn and
cotton are both badly damaged. Immense
quantities Of timber are blown down, and
other property damaged. The water courses
were high and lands badly washed. The
roads were left in bad condition. The
damage done the corn crops along the
streams Is most severe whore the water stood
on IL for several hours. The running water
did not destroy it so completely. The cotton
was twisted about and many Of the limbs
broken off. 1t is not reasonable at this time
to calculate upon more than half crop Of cot
ton at best.
