The peo p!e o! this neighborhood have been pushing things to the front in the way of farming until the recent rains, which began to fall last Wednesday 18th about 10 o'clock, and has been raining almost without ceasing ever since until tonight. Saturday 21st, uini hence farming is at. a stand still just now. Although some of the farmers around Magill are through planting their cotton crop, viz: Messrs. Roby and Geo Bell have been through planting for some time and George says he is feeling so dreadful lonesome with nothing to do. Mr. Catfish Jim, the kicking mule man is having a time now, he says, living "seven days to a week" and all those days looking like Sunday. But I think Bro. Cat h is given up the fishing business to his two opponents, Bill and Joe, as they live nearest the fishing grounds. Mr. Editor, two worthy young gentlemen, J. and W. were taking a mule-back ride this afternoon and W. being so very perfect in the art of riding young mules thought he could tide 'sidewise' and not hold hi* rein*, so on they rode ami after a while the little black mule got Will just wher<she thought was the softest spot in the road to dump him so his bones would still be whole. She stepped to the right and Will went to the left catlop right Mat on his hack in the 'featherbed' like road as it had been raining for two or three days on that spot.

Mr. Editor, the "political pot" which has for sometime past been simmering over the smouldering coals, is now boiling in full, and if a little cold water is not added and a good hand to stir it, we think the pot will soon boil over and spill some candidates.

The United States, or { portions of it, is suffering terribly from the recent Hoods, South Africa is drenched with water, there has been floods in the 'mow possessions" ot Uncle Sam, while wars and rumors of wars absorb tiie atiention of the civilized and a large part of the semi-civilized globe. Famine and disease stalks abroad over the larger portion of the East. Cold has cut short the fruit crop and many like things have happened that every one I will easily recall. I recently he&rt! * fiiiTjior s3jTj on being asked what the farmers would do if it continued to rain, "Go naked and drink branch water" he replied Now while it is devoutly to he hoped it will not come to that, the farmer will have no easy time this year, especially should cotton drop, as many claim it will, to 5$ or (> cents next fall, as he is having to produce it on a ii.J cents basis. It is reported that the land in this section is considerably washed from the recent rains.
