A report from Tbonrasvilleiays: The incessant
rains have done ontold damage. Even the
potato crop ia suffering from too much wet
weather. Tier* haa not been a day ia over a
month that rain hat not fallen somewhere in
tble county. Yon have printed already that
the pear crop was rained by the storm, and
yon will not mtsa the troth far by eayiog tho
corn crop is not ranch better. Tho leaves oa
cotton are beginning to look sickly and drop
off. Jnst as soon as the rains cease a few day*
of sunshine will make the frnlt also drop off,
and knowing ones aay that the cotton crop is
going to be under an average. This D certsio*
ly discouraging. Last year tha drouth dam
aged all eropa at least one-half and this year
floods will produce about tho sarno result. A
half crop two consecutive yearawill not sup-
support the farmers and allow them to keen

Albany News; The News and Advertise,
some years since, investigated the melon bud-
ncse and felt that there was something In it
for our farmers who were neareoengh tho
railroads to engage in the enterprise. Too
farmers have had many backsets and discour
agements, hot like men of pluck, they havo
worked at the problem until it appears to he
solved. Melons hare commanded fair prices
tblsneason, and the returns havo paid. B it
even yet the freights are too high. We tr nt
time will regulate that. It ia indeed gratify
It g to us that the melon growers havo realized
some profit this year. Our farmers havo but
tow home markets. They are almoit compell
ed to plant cotton, but now that melon grow
ing has attained to the dignity of a busiuesi,
It will give i

Quitman Free Press: A difficulty oocnrrod
at ihe switch cast of Quitman, ou Friday last,
In tween Mr. J. A. Parker and Mr. Ebeneztr
Folsom, which has resulted In the death of the
latter. Wo learn that the trouble originated
about a car, which Mr. Parker had ordered
aud masked, and which Mr. Folsom took poa-
session of. Wo -da ensued, aud Mr. Folsom at*
lacked Mr. Parker, aud was so badly cut that
bo bird to death. It Is not our desire or inten
tion to sav anything that will prejudice the
tuinda of tn people for or against either party,
as Mr. Parker has given bond and tho case will
be tried in dne course of law, but in justice to
Mr. Parker, we state that in the opinion of
tboso whom wo have hoard state tho case, the
fight waa foretd upon Mr. Parker, and tho
cutting was done iu self defense. They were
both respectable citizens, and Mr. Parker hee
the reputation of being one of the qnieteat men
in the connty. It is a deplorable affair.
Sheriff Clemente, of Polk county, a few days
ago received a letter from Mr. Wyatt Lips
comb, sheriff of Milam connty, Texas, stating
that ho had arrested George Mobley and had
him secure in jail at (tomeron. Mobley denied
that ho was the man, having gone under an
assumed name, but as he had been spotted by
a man who knew him. thero remains tho least
doubt aa to his identity. Sheriff Clements
has left for (tomeron and will bring Mobley

Albany Now*: A N«.wa and Advertiser rcr

ted conversation, following tho direction of a
laudable iiujuisJtlvenrs*s. eagerly approached
to ascertain the topic of discussion. It provod
to he tho effect of prohibition upon tho molon
business. The general prevailing opinion was
that it had contributed largely towards its sue-
cess, even In the present season. Without ro-
rapitulatlng the argumeuts adduced to sustain
this position, we merely mention one, which
carried the weight of conviction. Tho con-
