It was described to be like the rumbling of a heavy wagon breaking down with a lond crash. Some said it resembled thunder “breaking short off.” It was loud enough to arrest a lively conversation and, in fact, to at tract universal attention. In Yineville we heard no mention of an earthquake shock, but it was very generally noticed in town. One gentleman describes the noise as resembling the moving of a heavy table npon the bare floor of an adjoining room, and, until ho felt the shock, he thought that was the occasion of the noise. Some thought a steamboiler had burst or a house tum bled down. Readers are aware that some philosopher on the Pacific shore has predicted a dreadful earth quake upon tho coast of Georgia, abont Savan nah, during the month of June. The negroes had got hold of this story in the newspapers, and they had wild rumors among themselves on Saturday morning that Savannah had actually been swallowed np. We were questioned several times by the darkies yesterday whether we were quite sure Savannah had not been engulpbed. She may be yet. The time for the verification of the prophecy has not yet transpired. Ac cording to that vaticination the coast for fifty miles in the interior, would sink into the vasty deep in June, and with it wonld go all those ob structions in tho Savannah River. We shall see if these awful events follow the slight premoni tory symptoms of Friday night, and meanwhile let our Savannah friends “watch andbe sober.” Seriously, we suppose the shock on Friday night probably signalized heavy convulsions somewhere among the West India Islands. Per haps, that grand depositary of volcanic forces, the island of Hayti, was visited by one of those terrific earthquakes, sis of which are of historical record within three centuries. The last violent one was in 1842, and we have little doubt, at that period, the Atlantic coast of the South sympa thized to some extent in the tremendous sub- mundane throes which rocked that island to its lowest base. We shall await advices from the Antilles with a good deal of interest. Bibb County School Commissioners. The School Commissioners held a meeting in the Ordinary’s Office yesterday at noon, and audited the accounts of most of the teachers for the first quarter of 1869. The following were Mrs. R. C. Wheeler, $25 50; Maria Julian, $78 00; Mrs. and Miss Cose, $247 40; John Sullivan, $123 60; Mrs. S. S. Stevens, $37 90; Miss M. E. Carlos, $26 70; Wm. Ryder, S22 92; Mrs. E. McHenry, $11190; S. H. Everett, $137 40; Sirs. HarrietL. Parsons, $151 60; Mrs. E. L. Evans, $86 95; Enoch Parker, $158 20; R. IT. Mitchell, $159 90; S. EL Robertson, $163 10. An account of the Sisters of Mercy for $192.70 was passed, conditioned npon the usual and legal verification by affidavit. Mrs. Fannie L. Grigg’s account for $341.10 was referred to Sir. Roberts for further inquiry. Miss B. A. Hughes’ bill for $25.50 was laid upon the table for the present, she not having been regularly authorized as a teacher. Several other accounts have not yet been rendered. The result of the first quarter’s experiment shows that the tuition of poor children in Bibb county upon this plan, even at the low rate of ten cents a day each, will cost the county about twelve thousand dollars a year. And yet the Commissioners have employed fewer teachers than usual, and required that none but proper beneficiaries shall be taught at the cost of the county. It is quite evident that this will not begin to do. Tho county cannot meet the expense, and some other plan must be adopted. We are in formed the Commissioners will hold a special meeting on Tuesday evening next to deliberate upon some substitute for the present system. People who are Afraid to go Home. Atlanta, May 21, 1869. Messrs. Clisby tfc Reid: You call upon mo for the names of those Republicans that are re- fugeeing here, and I now shall give them to yon—and if yon wish can publish: Hon. McW. Hungerford, Burke connty: Hon. J. T. McCormick, Troup county; Hon. Maull, Muscogee county; Hon. John Neal and Hon S. Gardner, Warren county; Hon. B. Moore, Columbia county; Hon. Thos. Speer, Pike county; Hon. Platt Madison, Lincoln county. Also, Mr. Norris, Sheriff of Warren county. And those in Augusta that are afraid to go home are: Hon. J. M. Rice, Colnmbia connty; Hon. F. Holden, Taliaferro connty. Also, in Atlanta, Hon. Alex. Reid, of Dougherty county. And there are many citizens here refngeeing from their counties on account of political opinion. Radical. We publish the foregoing, although it comes to us anonymously, and it is contrary to rule to print an anonymous communication, particularly where names are introduced. And in this cose, we don’t believe one of the gentlemen named is in Atlanta because he fears violence at home. We know it cannot be the case, for example, with Hon. Thomas J. Spear, tho Senator from this district, who was in Macon a day or two since, and we have no idea it is true of any one men tioned. We shall keep the manuscript for refer ence. It is written in a hand either purposely disguised or by somebody unaccustomed to the use of a pen. It is not written by the man of whom we made tho request, to-wit: the outrage manufacturer for the Tribune and Washington Chronicle. Instructions of Minister Motley. The Washington correspondent of the New York Herald, under date of the 17th inst., thus writes of Minister Motley’s instructions: Secretary Fish spent some time at the White House to-day in consultation with the President over the instructions of Minister Motley. The question as to whether Mr. Motley should have written instructions, or whether he should be sent out with a sort of general understanding to do as he pleased is at last settled. The Secretary of State read the instructions carefully to the President, and received his assent to them prior to. their being sent to Sir. Motley at New York. The precise nature of them cannot be made pub- Ho. That part of them which relates to the Ala bama claims is understood to be founded, sub stantially, on the speech of Senator Sumner so far as material indemnity is concerned. Sir Fish does not agree with the sentiments of Sir Sam per with regard to a demand upon Great Britain for a national apology in addition to payment in full for damages to our commerce. He consid ers this would be treated by Great Britain as equivalent to a declaration of war, and therefore would not be entertained if presented by Slinis- ter Motley. Sir. Fish was scarcely in favor of going so for as Mr. Sumner in other matters, connected with the Alabama claims, but the Pres ident was of the opinion that the people demand ed a firm policy towards Great Britain on this question, and therefore overruled the Secretary. A special messenger from the State Department left here this evening for New York with the in structions for Mr. Motley. Bad on Cotton. We are having another season of uncommon- cool nights for May, and the unhealthy ap pearance of cotton on sandy lands continues. Indeed, the young plants droop and wilt more and more, and the indications are at this time time very discouraging. We know of one plan ter in the immediate vioinity of Columbus who has stopped work in a field of about thirty acres of cotton, determining to wait and see whether half a “stand” will survive this weather and the present sickly condition of the crop, before he spends any more labor on it. If tie dying ont of the plant continues, he will plow np cotton and plant corn instead. We presume that quite a number of planters, though they have not ac tually suspended working their cotton, are equal- 1 -* uncertain whether the “ stand” that it is to ileft them will pay the expense of cultivation. ■Oolumbtts Enquirer.

Simon Wolf responds favorably to Douglass’ ap plication, concluding thus: “lam particularly hap py in being the means of encouraging you, for as a descendant of arace equally maligued and prejudg ed, I have a feeling of common cause, and who can foresee but what the stone tho builders reject, may become the head-stone of our political and social structure.” Grant proclaims that the eight-hour law involves no reduction of daily compensation.

From Augusta* Augusta, May 22—Edwin Belcher, colored, As sessor of the Third District, publishes a card in this morning’s Chrouicle and Sentinel in reference to his letter published in the Washington Chronicle and the New York Tribune, detailing the murder of Stone, one of the expelled members of the Legis lature, and the negro man who was with Adkins when he was killed. Belcher says that he was mis informed, and he believes willfully imposed upon by certain parties here, as he now learns, upon good authority, that Stone and the other person mentioned are living. Belcher states that the letter was private to Charles Sumner, and regrets its publication. Special despatches from Atlanta to the Re publican papers North, announced the murder of these two men by Ku-klux: but there is no foundation for tho report.

After repeated colls, Senator Sprague was introduced by Governor Anderson and spoke for half an hour, dwelling particularly upon tho pornicions effects of the centralization of the money power as in New York, and taking strong grounds against free trade, showing that by combination, England and Franco formed for the culture of cotton in Egypt that would eventually drive it from America, unless moans were taken to reform nnd cheapen labor at the South. His remarks were listened to with ea gerness and were well received. General Bussy, of Louisiana, received a let ter from tho New Orleans Chamber of Com merce, earnestly inviting the Convention aa a body, to attend the Convention there on the 26th instant, and in a forcible speech urged the acceptance of the invitation.

Will the Con vention urge Government aid to promote water communication for vessels of five hundred tons burthen on tho Ohio and James rivers, and for one thousand tons between the upper lakes and the sea ? [Signed] Hobace H. Day, Plinel Fbeeman.

The work of Commodore Maury, on the Phys ical Condition-of Virginia, was ordered to be printed. When Rhode Island was called, Senator Sprague rose and said in reference to the South ern Pacific Railroad that Congress was ready and willing to grant aid to this enterprise as to the others, but owing to the absence of rep resentation from Texas, through which the road would necessarily pass, it had not deemed it proper to donate the lands of that State for that purpose, but Congress wanted a route deaigna- ted and he hoped this Convention would do bo. After some other unimportant business, at 5 p. m., the Convention adjourned until 9 o’clock to-morrow morning, when reports from commit tees will be received. THE TRUE " S : uA 4 FOUNTAIN OF HEALTH.

Medical Properties and Uses of the Water'; ° > This water combines in a remarkable degree those properties which render it a remedial agent of pecu liar, perhaps of unequalled value for the eradication of disease and the restoration of health. The extraordinary cores which have been by it in many Chronic Diseases and in some cases which seemed almost hopeless, justly entitle it to rank with the most famous Mineral Springs of Vir ginia and tho world. Indeed there is strong reason to believe that in many of the most serious, unman ageable and widely prevailing diseases that afflict the human race, the Cold Sulphur Water is not only the most safe, mild and pleasant, hut also the most certain and effective remedy yet discovered. ’ • ' Under its benign, revolutionizing and renovating influences, many chronic maladies vanish like the mists of the morning under the unclouded rayhof the sun; the ruddy glow of health revisits pallid cheeks towhichit had become a stranger ; in many cases animation, elasticity, energy and buoyancy su persede the bodily languor, debility-, irritation and dis ease which had long reigned supreme in the system, and cheerful spirits, the natural companions of vigo rous health, take the place of thiat gloomy and mel ancholy condition of the mind whioh is the legitimate offspring of physical suffering. This water presents the rare combination of Ape rient, Diuretic, Diaphoretic, Alterative, Tonic and and Eutrophic properties. Acting freely upon the Bowels, Liver, Kidneys, and Skin, it thoroughly.pn- rifl.es the blood, and eliminates from tho system the essential elements of disease; while it invigorates the stomach; enriches the vital fluidgives tone and energy to tho muscles and nerves; renovates the entire organism, and re-establishes health and strength. - - In Dyspepsia, Liver Disease, Bilious Complaints, Costiveness, General Debilily, it is a remedy of un surpassed utility and power. Especially upon the STOMACH its influence is prompt, decided and highly beneficial. It speedily relieves heart-burn, increases the appetite'and pro motes digestion, so that as a general rule persons using it can eat with impunity, and that all-impor tant organ which supplies strength and nutriment to the whole system is soon restored to a strictly normal condition. „ Being on efficient Aperient apd laxative; it causes a regular and healthy action of the bowels, and is a most admirable remedy in cases of habitual consti pation. As an anti-bilious remedy it is unsurpassed. Over the functions of the LIVER it exercises the most powerful and salutary controL If the bile be deficient in quantity, it acts as a direct atimulns to tho liver, and surely though gradually forces the secretion up to a healthy standard. And whether the Liver be torpid and obstructed as in jaundice, or in an excited and irritated condition, discharging an excess of vitiated bile, the judicious use of this water is equally efficacious in unloading the viscus and restoring the secretions to a healthy state. Being not only a free and powerful, but mild and soothing DIURETIC, this water exerts a decided sedative and calmative influence over the Urinary Organs ; and has been pre-eminently successful in cases of Inflammation, Irritation, and Debility of the Kidneys, Bladder and Urethra. As a remedy in such maladies it has no snperior. In some diseases Pecut.tab to Females it is highly beneficial. Chlorosis and Leuchorrcca will be readily cured by tho Sulphur and Chalybeate waters here. Amenorrhcea and Dysmcnorrhera—when purely functional diseases, and uncomplicated by organio or structural derangement —will yield to the same means. Casesof Erysipelas, Rheumatism and Cutaneous Eruptions have been cured by the Cold Sulphur Water. Aithma, Chronic Bronchitis and Chronic Pneumonia will either receive much relief and mit igation from its use, or be entirely cured by it. Various Chronic functional derangements of the Heart, the Brain, and the Lungs, and some forms of Neuralgia, Gout and Scrofula are, in fact, sympathetic or secondary diseases, and have their prime cause or origin in, and are kept alive by a deranged, enfeebled and irritable condition of the stomach and alimentary canal. In such cases the Cold Sulphur Water, by virtue of its unequalled curative and restorativo powers in diseases of the Digestive Organs, i3 the appropriate remedy. The great Alterative, Tonic and Eutrophio pro perties of this water are dearly shown by the marked improvement of tho general health, and the increase of flesh and strength which generally follow its nso. In many cases so speedy and thorough is its cur ative agency, that in the language of a distinguished physician, who had himself seen its effects, “Noone but an eye-witness wonld believe in the marvelous ly rapid change to a normal condition or that of health.’* Some of the cares which have been made by it are of tbo most extraordinary character. Cases which were apparently of the most hopeless nature, for the relief of which not only all the resources of medical skill, but the most celebrated Mineral Springs of Virginia had been used in vain, have been entirely and permanently cured by the Cold Sulphur Water. CHALYBEATE SPRING. Besides' the Snlpbur Water, there is upon tho premises a fine Chalybeate Spring, which posses- es the well known virtues of waters of its class. LOCATION, CLIMATE, ETC.

Harris, a dis tinguished physician of Staunton, Va.. His opinion of the curative power of the Cold Sulphur Water in diseases of the Stomach, Liver, Kidneys and Sirin. “From what I have known and now witness by oo- cular demonstration, I have no hesitation in Stating that as a valuable Tonic, Alterative or Lutropliic and Diuretic, the Cold Sulphur has no superior, if an equal, anywhere. ‘In diseases of the Liver, Stomach, Kidneys and Skin its curative power is wonderful. The larger proportion of patients who are now in attendance have been and are now suffering from Chronic Gas tritis or Dyspedsia, with sympathetic functional dis turbance of the Liver and Kidneys. And the cura tive agency of tho water is so extremely rapid in amelioration of all the grave attendant evils, symp toms or sequences of gastric disturbance, that no one but an eye witness would believe in the marvel ously rapid change to a normal condition or that of health.” Letter of Dr. J. L. Cabell, the eminent Profess or of Physiology and Surgery of the University of Virginia. “As the result of his observations on the ground, he formed a most favorable opinion of the value of the water.” Uniyebstit of Virginia, > January 30,1869.) Sam'l Goode, Esq., Cold Sulphur Springs: Dear Sir—In accordance with your request, I take pleasure in certifying that I visited the Cold Sulphur Springs near the dose of the last season, as the re sult of my observations on the ground, formed a most favorable opinion of the value of the water. Drunk at the Spring, the water is found to be very cold and very grateful to the palate and to the stomach. No discomfort is caused by the drink- ng five or six or more glasses, if only a few minutes intervene between the taking of the successive glasses. Invariably, so far as I could leant, persona in good or moderate health experience a marked sharpening of the appetite and a capacity for indulging it with impunity, and very many cases of confirmed Dys pepsia are radically cured. Its immediate effects are those of a mild laxative and an energetic urinary diluent. I had no opportunity of observing its ac tion in the treatment of Chronic Hepatic and Cuta neous diseases, but from the analogy, of its sensible effects to those of the Greenbrier White Sulphur there is reason to believe that its therapeutical ap plications are coextensive with those of that celebra ted water.

Its efficacy in the rapid core of Dyspepsia and Derangements of tho Digestive Organa generally, is certainly astonishfeg and remarkable. I know of two cases of dyspepsia of long standing and. of a most aggravated character, in which ah entire cure was accomplished by the use of. the Cold Sulphur water for only a few weeks.

It is a powerful tonic—diuretic, aperient and altera tive.

Deatonsytlle, Amelia Co., Va.,1 Oct. 27,1868. j S. Goode, Esq. Dear Sir: In the summer of 18511 discovered an insidious approach of Dyspeptic symptoms of aDys- interic character, (then epidemically, prevailing in E. Va.,) which finally in my case resulted in in un questionable ulceration of the lower portion of the colon, with a general subacute irritation of the smaller intestines. The ulceration continued for more than six months, in a very aggravated form, when in August, 1852,1 visited tho celebrated cura tive waters of the Rockbridge Alum, and after using that water fifteen or twenty days, I was not materi ally improved. Thjnkingit rather stimulating at that time, I left the springs, but continued to travel in the mountains by private conveyance, until I could venture home, where I remained in a feeble condi tion. In 1854,1 returned by private moans to the mountains, traveling and amusing myself by hunt ing, fishing, ote. In 1855, ’56 and *57,1 found no marked improvement in my disease. In June, ’58,' I was seriously and suddenly attacked in a more ag gravated form, when I returned to give the Rock bridge Alum another trial, and after a stay of sev eral weeks I was much improved. During my visit I took in my carriage a party of friends to the Cold Sulphur, which was then in an embryo state of im provement. I was at once favorably impressed with the water. Inext visited the Rockbridge Baths, where I remained a month, and was, I must say, decidedly benefitted, but only temporarily, as again in the'season of 1859 "my general condition was becoming more serious, by an obstinate cos tive condition of tho bowels, with a considerable thickening of the mucous membrane of the colon, and by two physicians was pronounced tumorous. This season I visited the Warm Springs, and from thence to Hot Springs, using first the boiler for a torpid Liver and Rheumatism of. the Spine. I was by this treatment improved as far as the Rheumatic symptoms were involved, but no effect on the obsti nate Liver, for in 18601 was so reduced in flesh and by continued constipation my nervous system was so shattered, that it totally disqualified me for any kind of business, Buffering from acid stomach, ner vous debility, palpitation of the heart, with such obstinate torpidity of the liver and bowels, etc., as to compel the use of wooden bougies, under a rigid contraction of the sphincter muscle in order to pass any fecal discharge from the bowels. In August; 1860, in this condition, 1 visited the Gold Sulphur Springs where i remained a month, and from the constant use of the water (and bath occasionally,) I was relieved of acid stomach, constipation, nervous debility, palpitation of the heart and cold skin. My feeble pulse of fifty-four beats to the minute was restored to seventy-five, a usually healthy standard, with a good appetite, no headache and what is very- agreeable, after more than nine years of miserable nervousness, I was enabled to. sleep well and have continued to enjoy both eating and sleeping well, and have been in good health and fine spirits ever since. Wishing you great success in your new enterprise I remain, truly yours, GILES A. MILLER. Judge L. Gibbons, of Mobile, Ala., in a letter dated September 23,1868, says of the Cold Sulphur Springs: “Asa Tonic and Alterative, I consider them un rivalled, and judging by their effects upon myself and child, unhesitatingly say that I consider them fully equal to, if not better than any that I have ever seen. In all cases of Dyspepsia, and diseases of the Alimentary canal and organs connected there with, I have no doubt that these waters would, in a short time, effect by themselves an entire cure."

Goode,Esq.: Dear Sir—I had been living for a number of years in a Southern climate—had frequent attacks of bili ous fever—was only able to keep on my legs by the frequent use of mercury, (blue mass.) when in the summer of 1848,1 think it was, (I had then been in Virginia a year or two,) I spent two or three weeks at the Cold Sulphur Springs, and was completely cured, and have enjoyed good health generally ever since. X lived in the neighborhood of these Springs several years, and saw many persons benefitted and cured of torpid liver, indigestion, dyspepsia, erysip elas, skin diseases generally, etc. But it has been bo long since, that I cannot give you particulars. I recollect, however, perfectly well, that after a few days’ use of the water, dyspectie, as well as every- kpdy else, can almost eat with impunity. Very tru ly and Respectfully Yours, D. KUNKLE.

S. L. McDOWELL, r -y v :,ni Callahan’s V, P. , Alleghany county, Va. ■ The Feeling ia England. The New York Tribune’s London correspon- 5 dence of the Gth says: • The irritation caused by Mr. Sumner’s speech, goes oh increasing instead of diminishing, as I hoped it might after a little reflection. I have already .described it as extending through all classes, turning old friendship into ill-witi, and uniting those who were for us' and those who' were, against us, in one common purpose of re sistance to'the demands supposed to be made by Mr. Sumner. With a good deal of reluc tance, and with some qualifications, 1 said we had few friends left, if approval or even tolera tion of Mr. Sumner’s speech was to be the con dition of friendship. With a good deal more reluctance, but without any qualification, I say to-day that so far as I know we have not, in that sense, a single friend in England. . Of course I do not mean that mien long con-* spicuous for their sympathy'with tis have on a sudden become. enemies, or that they reoant anything they ever said on our side. But they dissent wholly from Mr. Sumner’s statement of the American claims and grievances. They find fault with the tone of the speech, and the ex tent of his demands. In more than one partic ular they are misled, or some, of them are, by the misrepresentations of the. London papers, all of which make Mr. Sumner say some things which he clearly does not say. Comment on the speech continues daily, in. the press and ev-: everywhere else, and while there is a difference in the degree of resentment expressed in the different quarters, the agreement of opinion is .practically unanimous. England will fight rather than yield to the claims made or indicated in' thi3 speech. She - will fight rather than even negotiate on any such basis. If Mr. Motley’s instructions cover any thing like the ground taken by Mr. Sumner, he will be met by a point-blank refusal to consider his proposals. At this moment, I doubt wheth er any proposals whatever would be listened to. If popular feeling counts anything in the For eign Office, they would be simply scouted. Of. course, I don’t mean that Mr. Motley is likely to be received with incivility. The most furious would greet him with politeness enough, but all parties will resist with equal resolution an at tempt to enter upon any negotiation which does not disavow, in fact if notin terms, Mr. Sum ner’s authority to speak for the American Gov ernment. * * * The party that was ready to refer to arbitration the question of the recognition of rebel belligerency has disappeared. Indeed, nobody thinks it possible, at this moment to do anything. The irritation is too general, the exasperation too great to permit even a discus sion. No doubt, this fever will Bubside, but it must run its course, and it will do no harm to recollect that when Mr. Adams first presented the American, claim for damages on account of the Alabama, with his modest request for arbi tration, claim and arbitration together were resented with scarcely less indignation than - rages now. It was .less general, put not less intense. Mr. Vemon Harcourt, hiding his blushes be hind a newspaper screen as “Historicus,” pro tested in the name of law and reason, and a lot of other things that no such claim should ever be considered. Yet it has been. I don't mean to argue that England will some day be ready to pay htdf the cost of onr war,' for I don’t un derstand Mr. Sumner nor anybody else in Amer- - ica to demand that, though the English papers will have it that that is our ultimatum. But the whole history, of tins controversy shows that a very loud English No is capable of softening in to a whispered Yes. Ihave no sort of doubt that -when it suits our Government to resume negotiations, they will get a civil answer, though they may not get an immediate assent to their proposals. Meanwhile, there is nothing to-do but wait. >' - '*' . *i Cnba-The Battle of Los Hinas. Nf.w York, May 19— The World’s Havana correspondence says that when a Government vessel lately arrived there from Nuevitas with a load of wounded, the press were forbidden to- publish any facts connected with the event. It transpired, however, that General Lesca had ft fight with the insurgents, nine miles from Puerto Principe, with a terrible result for them, although the Cubans suffered the. loss- of a Lieutenant- . colonel, a captain and six men, killed and thirty wounded. An eye-witness places the insurgent loss at 2,000 men. Better information, however, ' shows the result far more terrible to the Span iards who suffered the worst defeat they have ex perienced since the revolution began. It appears that Qnesado and Castillo gathered four thousand of their best troops just beyond Los Minas and entrenched. Gens. Leoda and . ! Lesca came along'with a large body of Span- • iards, and assaulted the position. They would have carried it but for the timely arrival of Marquis Santa Lucia, who immediately attacked one of the flanks of the Spaniards. Still the Spaniards might have carried the day but for a battalion of Havana colored volunteers turning upon their officers and passing over to the insur gents, aiding them effectually in their struggle. The Spanish then gave way. This was the first attempt to use colored troops. The Catalian volunteers ooverod the retreat of the Spaniards, but they were frequently thrown into confusion and lost heavily. Many of the best and bravest of their Spanish officers are reported killed and wounded. This correspondent also says there is no truth in the reported convention of the revolutionists at Ginoaocua, at which resolutions favoring annexation to the United States were adopted. It is questionable whether a majority of the revolutionists favor annexation. A later dispatch says the Spaniards in the en- . gagement quoted above, lost nearly all their pro visions, baggage-train, etc., and part of their artillery. The insurgents had over seven thou sand men, and the Spaniards three thousand five hundred. The fight lasted nearly seven hours. Truly Disheartening. —We were showh yes terday a hundred or more cotton plants, which had been promiscously drawn from fields in dif ferent portions of the county, ont of which not a dozen could be found that would have lived to bear fruit. The leaves appeared healthy and fresh, but their tardiness in growth led to an ex- animation of the plant when it was found the roots were dead, there being small fibrous ' roots enough just under the surface of tho ground to keep the plant alive, while the nurifi root was entirely dead. It is believed th&l.fO per cent, of the already thin and irregular stand will die out when the present cool and damp weather gives way to tne warm, dry days of June. » [p JU*37 T tilc.Nf a tH i-l.'-v'S. ,.
