What a spectacle that must have
been crowning the exhumed corpse of

rather do homage as our fancy dictates,
and it would hardly tend to such a

seems ;o be greatly behind; very little
vrain has been sown between Winns
ijoro and Blackstock, an si with ilic excs'p'
io-1 of one field at Adder's Uiat
was wry liwu we saw hardly any.
Tuesday bfiii"- the first dav for a long ,
. ? j
time that the ground was in condition
for ploughing, every one seemed to be
hard down at it. Though behind with ,
tlwir work the farmers are hopeful,
and sa\ that it it will just quit raining .
for a while, they will "pet Ihere" yet.
For iheir sakes as well as our own we
verily hope so.
We stopped a short while at
"WOODWARD.

trade; report a good quantity of ferti?

about the weather and backwardness
of work.
At both of these places we learned
that there is a good deal of cotton
being held by farmers, especially in ^
the neighborhood of ttlickstock, and
all are regielting that they have held
i
it so long. Yet tl e fact that cotton is
being held is certainly an evidence of '
an improved condition of affairs; j
either the farmers have their debts j
paid and have Iheircotion as a surplus
or the merchant* arc in good financial
condition ana don't need their money. '
We sincerely hope both the farmers
and merchants are in thr* condition j
these facts would indicate.

A good lu.?i-' being done there.
We found I!iu canning l'-ic!<;ry people
cleaning ur> their plant, packing goods

for shipment an I g-'tting ready for
this season's work.
Everybody all alon^ the road, mer- .
chants and fanners alike, are com- '
plaining at the rapid advancc in, and
present, high prices of provisions.
This is a very serious thing to the I
farmer when he comes to count the j
cost of raising cotton: yet if it will
have a tendency to cause our people to i
plant less cotton and more grain it ;
will not have been an unmixed evil, j
One evidence of progression that im i
pressed us was the great improvement I
