Bush River only lacked two feet of being as high as at the last big freshet. The corn that was not destroyed in the first flood wits washied down again and covered over with sant. ''his rain has settled the corn crops on low lands for this year. It will be a great loss in this comunty. Less corn will be matlo in the county than any year since 11365. A great many farmers were diepetilent al together on their lo#iland for corn, antd some have not one acre of high land corn planted this year. 1 have heard several say that they would not make as much as ten bushels, and( others say they would not uake enough to (10 them until Christmas. Red land corn is boom ing, and as good as the land will lnake. If the rains continue two weeks longer the cotton crop will be a failure, and it will have to be very favorable from now on for an average crop to be made. It is impossible for the cotton that was planted last spring in this county to make an average crop, from the fact that thie grass has possession of about one-fourth of the crop, which w%"ill be 1m. possible for the farmers to get cleared in tine to make enough to pay for the trouble and time. I have seen acres of cotten, that if the rails continue one week longer, it will La impossible for a one-horse plow to turn the grass under that is growing so luxuriantly in the middie of the rows. The farmer, with out a doubt, leserves praise for t he way in which he has managed1 to keep the grass from getting possessiol of his crop. I heard of one of our neighbors, who rode over one of hi plantations and1 got lost, andl offered a coloredt ienalt. 25 cents to show him the way omit of the grass. Mrs. Glasgow hadt a corn crib blown down in the north-eastern gale of last Thursday, anld one line hog an<l a goat killed tinder tihe debris. General Suber's (colored) wife was found lead in bed last ThIursday morn ing. She went to bed as usual 'Wlnes (lay night, apparently in good health. 11er husband said he did not know what time in the night she lied. She was subject to heart disease. The wells in our vicinity are nearly full of water, ani the water in some can scarcely be usetl. I expect. that is one cause of so much (lysentery throughout the colmilln ity. The farmers' elb of Jalapa is re quested to meet on Saturday evening the 17th inst., as business of Importance will be transacted. We desire a good atteldance. JAN. Ne'w Advertisements.
