 MT. Carter is a respectable young man and an industrious employe of the Louis vile and Nashville railroad shops In thls city Her sudden self-destruction has cast a gloom over the entire circle of her ac- uuaintances in this city.

GEN. OATES GOES TO WASHINGTON.
He VIII Endeavor to Get an Assignment to
 Command Alabama Troops

Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald.
 Montgomery, Ala, July 15-General William C. Oates left by the 9:45 Louisville and Nashville train last night for Wash ington, travelling by way of Louisville, where he will stop off for few hours to- day to visit his brother-in-law, Judge Ster- ling B. Toney. General Oates goes to Wash ingtoh to endeavor to secure from the war department an assignment to the command of a brigade of volunteers, preferably now a brigade of immunes composed of the Ala bama- Mississippi regiment. Hoods Louis jana regiment, and a regiment from Geor gia which he hopes will be given him and assigned to General Lees corps now at Jacksonville, Fla. General Oates greatly prefers being assigned to brigade under General Lee.
 General Oates has now been kept wait ing for several weeks, and he is weary of it. At the outset he was told he was to have the first brigade of the first div- sion of General Coppnger's corps at Tam pa, this brigade being composed of the First Alabama, and the First and Second Mobile for duty he was told that there were no orders for him. Subsequently he went to Tampa and had an interview with Gen eral Coppinger, but nothing came of it. He wrote to General Lee for a brigade, and General Lee replied that he already had three generals without command.
 It appears that General Oates has not been shown the consideration he was en- titled to, and his friends are beginning to feel some not unnatural irritation about the matter.

Early corn was cut off by want of moisture, but that planted later, com- prising three-quarters of the entire crop, is very fine. The cotton crop is unusually good up to the present time, but the ex- cessive rains of the last week will probably cause great damage to it.
