books bought and brought to Washington
and the library of Congress again

being made from timeto lime, the library
contained, in 1831, 35,000 volumes.
During that year it accldenlly caught

The Weather and the Crops.
Our District has-been visited throughout
with copious and reviving rnltie. It began
on Friday, and continued to fall until Monday
afternoon, and 1ms been of immense
service to the corn and cotton cropa?onus
ing the late corn to grow finely, nnd the
appearances arc favorable for an average
yield.
We spent, the whole of last week in the
upper part of the District. The corn was
ionising remarkably well in the mountains,
ami farmers informed us that, notwithstanding
the drought, they would make fair crops.
The rains which hnve since fallen huve no
doubt improved tilings wonderfully, and
should the present seasons continue, an unusual
corn crop'may l?e expected in the upper
part of (ircenville District.
