A month ago everybody was gloomy, but now everybody seems to be bright and cheer ful. The corn crop is said to be splendid and the cotton crop promises a good yield. The Meriwether Vindicator has the following interesting crop paragraphs: lvuuoUJJ UA ,, aoumgwu AWUBO i4i “Mr. B. F. Tigner says he has ten acres of the j Simth, of Gate City Guards; B. Russell, finest peas to be found in all his neighborhood. * ' ~ He has large quantities already ripe in the field. “Mr. Tlios. S. Wright says his bottom corn is just as good as heart can wish. His neighbors say it reminds them of the stc ries of Egypt’s seven years of plenty. “The farmers in town last Tuesday 'gave most encouraging reports of the corn and cotton crops. If the fall fulfills the present promise the county will be blessed with overflowing abundance. So mote it be. “Mr. Monroe Davidson says he has the biggest and best cotton crop he ever had. Mr. Davidson also says he never saw such a year for raising corn. He says with favoring seasons he has acres that will make a bale per acre. Competent judges say Mr. Davidson ought to make 200 bales of cotton. His corn crop is mag niticent.” The Sin a lord Mari* for Sale.
