WHITE FROST.

Tuesday morning there was q
white frost. This was expected az
the weather had bsen cold for &c.
veral dyas previous, and We could
SEQ the people out in overcoats
and winter garments and almost
every body using fire in the house.
Very few of our present genera
tion have seen such cold weather
at this late season, although three
years ago the crops were frozen
on tho Goth of April.
Some people report there was q
light freeze, Monday aud Tuesday,
and all felt that it was cold enough
to produce ice.
The crops and garden in general
are seriously affected by this un-
favorable weather condition.
The drouth and cold north wind
followed by ice and frost, is sure
to produce a bad effect on all
kind of vegetation, tho plants not
injured are stagnant and show no
growth and do not present the con.
dition generally expected at this
time.
Some planters are not through
planting their coru aud cotton on
account of the dry con dition of
the ground.
