We had a very heavy rain Monday at.
ternoon, accompanied by slight fall or
hail. The first shower was very hard,
and was followed by several lighter ones
at intervals of half to an hour. There is
no lack for rain now. This season will
insure the early oats and wheat to make
q full crop, If no disaster comes upon
them. Cotton may be damaged by the
hail in some of the places where it was
heaviest. The stalks are bruised, and
some of them will die, but not much
thinning had been done, and consequent
~ we can spare some. There is some
complaint about stand of cotton; Some
haye planted over, apd some will plant
over as soon as the land gets dry.
