rn Floridh.-The Savannah Repubican
contains a letter from their correspondeut in
Jacksonville, E. F., relative to die stte of the
inhabitants, weather, &c., fromt which we ex.
tract the following:
"We have had. for the past f1ew days. the
most driving and drenching rains, I ever wit
.nessed or read of. The drops have fani' so
thick and fast, that the extended hatad could not
be seen. and the distance appeared like ar im
netrable Northern mist. Florida is a pecu
country, bowever;-ead.amont its pec.
liarities, dQue are momn unaccountable than
these tren das darkening rains, which occur
zo where '. -Neteotol teaches that lnfty
mountainoas countries are t only recipients
df liexvy, incessant flooded rains, and to the
student in the above rcience, I will leave the
ask of solving the problem how we in our low,
shady peninsula enjoy the same bounteous dis
play of Providence, which is only attributed -t
siore favorable country, leavingout our prox
amity to the Tropic.
This letter is rather lengthy. but I cannot
.conelude without relating a melancholy occur
rence which passed a week or so back, in the
neighborhoodof Alligator.
"The father of that family, consisting of a
wik and two anns. in the vicinity of that place

The first bale of Colton.-It is the prac.
tjce among the Planters every yentr to in

bale of Conan at market. This ambition,
if hartewm in sone respects. ini;ht be
asefoi in others; but we are persuaded,
that uniess when it ati'ords undoubted evi
aence of a general forwardness of the crop,
it leads to very pernicious results, and that
on the present occasion, it would be the
part of wisdom and prudence with the
Planters, to rfrain from this unprofitable
rivalry. The growing crop. is unlues
tion'ably, very backward, and though a
single baleof Cotton might be sent to mar

would only be aber all, an exception tet a
