WEATHER, CROPS, &c.
'he Cotton Crop.-The following is an
extract of a letter, written in Coweta
county, acd addressedLto a merchant in
this city. It is dated on the 6th instant:
" If a abort crop of cotton will have any
influence on prices, they will - certainly
improve That there will be a short
crop throughout upper and middle Geor
gia, there cannot be a doubt, and I learn
the prospect is no better in the lower part
of the State, in South Carolina, North
and South Alabama. It is now upwards
of three -weeks since we had a drop of
rain, and for the last two weeks Cotton
has not grown half an inch in height, and
what is more unfavorable, it is -now fast
dropping its boles and forms. I have
been at a Camp Meeting for the last four
days, which was numerously attended by
the citizens of several counties laying con
tiguous .o this,- and I have not seen the
frat man, who expressed the opinion that
there would over a half crop of either
Cotton or Provisions."-Sav. Republican.
Since our last there have been showers
of rain in some parts of our district, but
they have been very partial, and we may
saywith propriety, that the dry weather still
continues. The prospect is a gloomy one.
It has become very difficult to get grinding
done at the mills in consequence of the
extreme lowness of the tsater.-Pendle
ton Messenger, 15th inst.
The Weather-Crops.-This immediate
section of country is still suffering with
the continued drought-or, rather, we are
parched up and vegetation no longer able
to suffer. The corn crops are exhausted,
and many of our farmers will scarcely
make a bushel to the acre, But while
this is the case immediately around Char
lotte, in the upper part of the county, and
in parts of Lincoln, Catawba, and Iredelt.
particularly along the river and creeks,
fine crops will be made. Upon the whole
we think the fears of a famine are ill
founded. With the old crop of corn yet
on band, and the crops making in some
parts of the neighboring counties, we be
lieve a bountiful supply of bread stuffs
may be had by every body. None need
suffer who v ill be industrious and. eco
nomical.- Charlotte Jeffersonian.15th inst
. Drought.-A correspondent of the Nets
York Commercial Adversiser writes from
Rochester under date of August 4:
" For eight weeks we have but once been
favored with much rain, and our recent
green fields are likening unto burnt pra
ries. The hay crop, which is now tnost'
in, is very-sbort. and our farmers will b
compelled to sell- part of their stocks for
they cannot winter them. The- drought
seems to prevail also at the West. A
gentleman here yesterday from Ohio says
that good cows can now he bought for $6
a head. Wheat however is abundant in
every direction, both in the western part
of this state and in the states bordering on
the lakes."
The Weather and the Crops.-We men
tioned in our last paper, the heavy rains
which had fallen for a few days previous
to - its publication, and the prospect of
another deluge. On Tuesday and Wed
nesday, the rain contitnued' unahaed, ex
tending far back in the country, and reu
dering the river navigable for steamboats.
The Richland left for Charleston on Wed
nesday evening, and the Utility on the
following morning. The a'ect ot the
crops, of the protracted wet weather, has
heetn, in general, decid'edly advantageous.
The late planted Cord has much impro
ved in appearance, and from enqiuiry and
observation we are now aatiefied that, in
this section of the State, the Corn crop
will be at least half an average one. Cot
ton is doing well, and it now unrintly de
-- pends on the seasons to coure, whether it
will be materially short or note so far as
this immediate vicinity is corcerned
Farmer's Ga:.ette, 12th inst.
Wo believe that the people of our Dis
trict are unnecessarily alarmed at the
prospect before them; and though the
hopes of the farmer seem blasted. the
yield of corn will be more than is antici
pnted. There is, we learn, tmuch old corn
yet in tbe couetry; and could the holers
of this, be persuaded to open tbeir hsarts,
atnd sell it to their neighbors at reasonable
prices, this, together wi~h the incomitng
-crop, such as it will be, will go far to sup
ply the deficiency with us.' To ask fr-om
a neighbor an exorbitant price, merely
because he is in nee-J and cannot help)
himself, we believe to be decidedly wrong
and unchristian; and let such remember,
fortune often changes hands, and they
may be placed in a sinitar situatiotn them
Belves. We have heard of many asking
one dollar per bushel for corn at the crib,
and even more, whilsr- there are others
who would take five dollars, could they
get it! Corn can be bought in Charles
ton at 50 or 60 cents, and in Trennessee at
from 10 to 15 cents per bushel; and should
we be compelled to- buy at either of those
places, though the distance is great, the
facilities for transportation are euch u. wv
that it could be delivered at this place
short of a dollar to the bushel.-Abbeuille
Banner, 13th inst.
The Crops.-The Selma (Ala.) Free
Press of 3d inst. eays :-Accounts from
all parts of the country tell of short cropis.
We can now speak with certainty of the
corn crops, which are generally cut off
fully one-half-in many places, two thirds
or tbree -fourths, in many places, there
has not been rain sufficient to wet the
ground at. any one time, for about three
zpooths, during the greater part of which
time, the weather has been excessively
. warm. Cotton is generally ren-arkably
small and unpromising, more so, perhaps,
than -at the same time any year for the
last ten or twelve years. The drought
has continued so long that the groundl has
b.ecome so dry as not to afford sufficient
moisture to keep the weed in a growing
state. There must be a great change for
.Ithe better, esle the.crop must fall far short
of au average one. Itis., however, im
possible, as yet, to speculate with any
thing like certainty as to the result. -Good
seasons in futute, and a favorable fall,
may do much to help ont the crop. The
weather has somewhat moderated, but
r continues perfectly -dry. The nights are
-sufficiently cool and quite- pleastant."
the 6th inst. has the following: "The
accounts of the incoming crop are rather
unfavorable this week. The plant has
rebeived more injury from the long con
tinued drought than was at first anticipa
ted. It appears that the rains we have
reported as fallen within the last three or
four weeks, have been only in spots, and
by no means general. The impression is
now gaining ground in the interior, and
founded too, we believe, on careful re
search, that the crop will not be an ave
rage one, unless the season from ibis out
should be unusually favorable. Should
the plant escape all the accidents to which
it is yet liable-should there be late frosts
and favorable weather for picking, there
may be an -average yield; but under no
other circumstances can there be. accor
ding to the belief of the most intelligent
and practiced dealers in cotton in the
country."-Mercury. 14th inst
From the Mercury. 14th inst.
GREINSBot.oUGB, Al., Aug. 9.
The Cotton Crop.-Within the last
week or two we have conversed with sev
eral planters in refetence io the Cotton
crop, and find the opinion very general
that the crop must be shcrt. For two
weeks past, the growth of the weed has
not only been entirely checked by the
drought, but we are assured that in some
placec it is actually smaller that it was
three weeks ago. On some of the fine
canbrake lands, .the Cotton is scarcely
hull its usual height, and is now opening
up to the top. Nor is this state of things
confined to this neighborhood-a gentle
man who came up a few days ago from
the neighborhood of St Stephens. informs
us that he saw not more than one or two
good crops on the-whole route. From all
the information we 'have been able to
gather, we are fully satisfied that there
will be a large falling o8 in the crop of
South Alabama.
YoltvILi.E, S. C. Aug. 9.
So mach has been said and written
about the drought and the crops that we
really dislike to touch the subject. But
duty to our distant readers. requires that
we should let them know our situation. -
In a word then the first is unparalleled in
our history, and the latter, miserable.
There will be produced it is true, in some
lavored spots and on low lands some good
crops, bur generally speaking, the crops
of the district are lamentably bad. Mitch
of the corn crop was planted late, and
had rain fallen in abundance last week or
even the present one, we perhaps might
have struggled through the year with
sonre degree of composure.
Neto Cotton.-Six bales of new Cotton
were received in this ptace on Friday fast.
the 8th instant, from the "Cane Brake"
plantation of Richard Sondlev. Esq , in
Newherry. District, and put in store in
consequence of the shortness of the crop,
Mr. S. wri'es from Newberry, on the
same date, I do not wish the cot;ot srol,
as it does appear to me we cannot make
one-third of a crop this season, under the
most favorable circumstances."-Tenp.
Advocate, 14th inst.
A leiter from Flat Rock, North Caroli
na, of Saturday evening last, says: "I
am very glad to see that you have rain in
town. We are much in want of it here,
not only for our own immediate co'mfort,
but for the poor far'mters, who are begin
ning to hrve a dreary pospect hefore thane
for next Winter. The very trees in the
woods are dying from lack of molst'are,
and many of our neighbors will make
no oorn at all."-Courier, hdth inst.
Sale of the Mlonroe Railroad-We
learn from the Mttacon papers that the sale
took place, on Tuesday the 5th inst., in

In Georgia, we observe :bat the whigs

attend which party it may, we see reason
to hope that the renegade Berrien will not
be returned to the Senate. At any rate,
no defence of his course is set up by the
presses of his partv, now.-Pendleton
Messenger, 15th inst.
A Tall Price.-The N. 0. Picayune of
the 4th inst. says :' The first bale of newv
cotton, Which we noticed as having been
received a day or two since by Wmr.
Laughlin & Co., was sold to Oakford &
'homas for fifteen cents a pound. If all I
the new crop could he got rid of at that'
price, the planters might snap their fingers
at hard times.-ibid.
Munificent Bequest.--The various be- '
quests made by the late Hoil. isaniel Wal
do, of Worcester Mass., amounts to over
$200,000. His sister, who died in 1840,
bequeathed $49.000 to various benevolent
institutions.-Patriot, 121h inst..
From the Republican, 14th inst.
(f Cori.--Having heard much col
cernng the very Autry prospect of Corn
Ctops; and having had several applica.
tons from our friends in the country to
purchase corn for them, we wrote to New
Orleans inquiring on what terms it could
be bought there, and tt what rate it could
be shipped to Charleston, the answer to
which, we give below, for the information
of our friends:
Extract from a letter received, dated
"NEw ORLEANS, Aug. 7,.1845.
Corn is now worth 34 a 36 cents, which
is low for this season of the year, acrd as
the present crop is likely to be a full av
erage one, we think it probable that the
market may open below the present rates.
Freight engagements have been made to
Charleston recently at 10 cts. per bushel."
At the above rate we think Corn can
now be laid dowd in this place at 54 a 55
cts per bushel.
We beg leave, by this meatds, to sug
gest to those of our country friends who
may need Corn, and require our agency
in procuring it, that they forward us their
orders by the first of O:tober next ; at
that time (as cash is necessary) place
funds in our bands for the pnrpose, and
we will at once order a sufficient quantity
to supply their several dettands.

Gudno-the real grit.-The St. Agns
tineyerald of the 5t6 inst. says: " Why
should every body run crazy after the
Guano from the Pacific when our own
country can furnish a much better article.
Wherever salt water or fresh runs. there
are large beds of alluvial deposited, which
on chemical analysis, we think. will he
found sone of the most valuable compo
nents which combined with others will
form a much cheapsr manure that can be
imported.
" If Guano, however, must be had, why
not come to Florida; and as long as it
lasts, we will supply it. A friend tells us
anat on the Pellican Islands, of which
there are a number in the Tomoco river,
there ere large deposites of the article
the real grit. The pilican and other
acquatic birds of the coast congregate there
in tnyriads, and afford to the planters a
rich manure if they choose to take it
away. And besides this the young squab
furnishes all the oil they need for use in
their cotton ginning."
A correspondent of the St. Louis Re
publican, Mr. J. A. Hubbard, who had in
early youth (together with his brother)
been bitten by a mad dog. states that hoth
were cured by drinking a sarong decoction
made ' , the hark of the toot of the
black a. .vhich is a well known cure for
the bite of a rattle snake, drinking a wine
glass full three times a day for eight days.
This is a very simple remedy. and should
at least have a trial. He gives the fol
lowing as the mode of preparing it:
Take the root of the common upland
ash, generally called black ash; peel off
the. bark, and boil it to a strong decoction ;
of tbis drink freely.
