Crops In Krecne County.
Greene County, Ga., May 25,186 G.
Eds. ChronicU and Sentinel :
The prospects lor a crop in this county are
very poor indeed. The wheat is very mate
riaj'y injured by the protracted wet weather,'
and in some localities has rust. It is believed
not more than a half crop wiil ,be made.
The prospect for a cotton crop is worse than for
wheat, for the reason that not more than oue
fourtb of a etaud is obtained. This is owing
to bad seed, wet weather, cool Eist winds, &c.
Oats were very much killed out by the ex
treme cold weather in January and Febrnary.
Tbiß is true of fall oats—spring oats; if it con
tinues seasonable, promise a fair crop. The
corn crop looks tolerably well. Tho bottom
lands are just being planted.
The freed men do about one half the work
they did in slavery.
There are conflicting opinions as to whether
the iree negro system of labor will pay.
Tho most practical farmers (those who suc
ceeded the best at farming in the days of
slavery of the negro) say they will not be able
to pay the freedmen onc-quarter'of tho pre
sent crop, ration them and then be able to pay
their taxes.
Notwithstanding all this, however, the peo
ple in the main are working industriously to
make something wherewith to pay taxeii and
their debts.
The political future is regarded dark, out
hopes are entertained Unit there is enough con
servatism and patriotism in tin i intry con
sequent upon the virtue and into!! ; oa of the
people, to restore measurably our .i ''-acted
and impoverished country to its former ■ an
quility and prosperity. Greens.

Saxony the Battle-Field of Herman) .
t he Paris Temps observes that for centuries
post Saxony has been the battle-field of Ger
many. From the time of the Thirty Years’
War to the last struggle under Napoleon 1.,
including the Sevou Years’ War, that country
has seen all the armies of Europe come into
coltis’on on its territory. The last visit of the
Prussian soldiers to Dresdeu was in 1849, but
on that occasion they were Invited by the
King of Saxony, who asked for their assistance
io reconquer his capital from his revolted sub
jects. Dresden is a'most within the grasp of
Pru-sia, as the distance from Berlin to the
Saxon capital is but oue hundred and twenty
miles, and may be reached by railway in less
th tu five hours. The Prussian frontier is only
j twenty miles from Dresden. S.»xouy is border
ed by Prussia on the northeast and northwest.
' and by Austria (Bohemia) on the east and
[ sonlb. The Austrian frontier is at Bodeaback,
forty miles from Dresfen, whilst Piague, the
nearest large town of Austria, is cne hundred
and twenty miles further, lhe King of Saxony,
if he has terminated his armaments, may have
a certain number of troops at his disposal, but
the. fact is evident that he is not in a position
to defend his capital against a surprise by
Prussia before the arrival of Austrian assistance.
There.is also reason to suppose that in such a

COMMERCIAL.
WEEKLY BEViEW OF THE ALGLSt A
MAUKET
FOB IHE WEEK ENDIN'O EAT 26TH.
REMARKS —Our market has been some
what nnsettied during the week, on account of
the sudden inflation in the currency, and the
excited condition of monetary affairs in
New York and the panic in Europe. We
have no material changes to report, but a
general stiffening iu the views of holders,
while buyers are generally holding off for later
developments. lhe business season is almost
over, and for two or three months trade must
be chiefly in a small way, for use, or to make
np little odds and ends in replenishing stock
without any general demand. Therefore, this
market is not likely to reflect the fluctuations
that occur e’sesvhere, as speedily as it would
do at any other season. Stocks of flour and
Western produce are much reduced and prices
tend upward. There will probably be no ma
terial change in flour until new wheat comes
in, parties being indisposed to operate in old
flour, which is generally of very poor quality.
Tie crop proapects of this immediate sec
tion tave improved under the late fine weather.
Wheat promises well. There is some com
plaint of rust, but we do not think it general-
The crop is late, and will not be ready for
market as early as usual by some two weeks,
Coru looks finely, though much in the grass-
Stands of cotton are bad, and the prospect
discouraging.
COTTON.—Our market has been very un
settled during the week, prices having kept
pace, pretty closely, with the fluctuations in
currency. Our last quotations were as fol
lows:
Middling ...29
Strict Middling 30
Good Middling - 31
On Monday there was a good demand at
these rates, with little offering. On Tuesday
a few sales wore made at 32 to 35 cents, and
fine cotton was in demand at 36 cents. On
Wednesday the views of holders and buyers
were so v. ide apart that no sales were reported.
On Thursday a few sales were made at 34 cents
for strict middlings, 35 cents for good mid
dling. On Friday holders advanced their rates
still further, and good middling was quoted at
37 cents, with but little demand. To-day
there has been a good demand, aad 32 to 37
cents continue the ruling extremes.

REVIEW OF THE NEW YORK STOCK AND
MONEY .MARKET.
New York, May 23.
The Commercial’s money article. says the
drain upon the banks for the payment of checks
drawn against gold, continues to be severely
felt among parties dependent on loans Most
of the outstanding 5 per cent, loans have been
put up to 6a7 per cent., and this morning the
demand from borrowers is very active, the
general rates being 7 percent, on call, with
note exceptions at 6 per cent. The demand,
however, is readily met. nor does there -eem to
be any ground for apprehension that there
will be any difficulty in borrowing at current
rates.
The bank? are perhups not unwilling to
keep the market somewhat close so as to sus
tain the rate at 6a7c, and for this reason are
not likely to fall back on the clearing houses
certificates, or upon their temporary deposits
in the Treasury, except under a sharper pres
sure than at present exists; the market, how
ever, is likely to receive ready relief frem the
Treasury through the presentation of one yeat
certificates for redemption.
The Sub-Treasury delivered about $400,000
in gold this morning, on account of Monday’s
sale. A similar amount was delivered
yesterday, and to-morrow from three to four
millions will be delivered, which will complete
the transactions with the late buyers of gold-
This morning the stock market was depressed
under the pinch in the money market. On the
one side there was some realizing, and on the
other considerable bidding to cover the shorts
A large amount of short however,
are being put out, so that it may be questioned
whether the maiket is now less over sold than
before the present condition of affairs
The bears assailed Erie very sharply, with
a view of depressing the market generally,
and prices fell 3 per cent., closing at 68J.
Prices are Ja2£c lower. Government bonus
are more aoiive and and steady at abount yes
terday’s pries, except 7-30’s, which are J low
er. Discounts are less active. The banks at
present prefer call loans to paper, and bills
are higher, with sliget accommodation in
the hands of dealers. Foreign exchange nomi
nal at yesterday’s figures. Gold in lavgo de
mand for export, and prices tends upward.

SAVANNAH MARKET.
Savannah, May 25.
Remarks—All purchases of produce having
been suspended under adverse intelligence
from Europe, there has been nothing to found
Exchange upon, and bills have disappeared
trom the market, bight on New York can
readily be had at the banks at ft cent
premium; and sterling has sold as high as 42
cent premium, an advance of 10 ft cent
since the early part of the month.
Thera is general confidence that the worst
news from abroad has reached us, and that a
chance for tbs better in business here will
soon be appaient.
Cottou- Siuoe our last review this maiket
has shown i great reaction from the extreme
depression of last week, and notwithstanding
the crit i-> in Livtrpcol and iha anticipa'ed ef
fect ot it in New York, prices hare advanced
in all the markets of the South about 6c lb,
carried along by a similar (eeling in N. Y.
The only appaient cames for such an advance
are the accounts of the next crop being so bad,
and the now more general demand from North
ern spinners, also the advance in gold, conse
quent on ths dtain from this country to Europe
and while we mention the first cause, we would
remark that as tar as our direct ‘ intelligence
reacbe.-, and from what we can cull from our
Western exchanges, we c insider the next crop
prospect as nearly desperate, aud the lesser
estimates are becoming daily more in favor.
Extraordinary high rivers, very wet weather,
with cold, chilly nights, bad seed aud in-ffiency
of labor are positive facts, and their effect can
be as well estimated by our readers as by us.
We would, on present advance, quote our
market equally irregular, as under the depres
sion, while we would give prices as follows:
Good middling 38

DIED.
At Millview, on the morning of the 21st instant, ANNA
OiiNN INGHAM, eldest daughter ot the late George Schley,
f g.d thirty-two years.
IN MKMORIAM.
“t h that I were at rest, like some I love,
* W hose last fbnd look drew half my life away;
Seeming to plead either they might t tay
With me on earth, or I with them above.”
And the angel-messenger sweetly re echoed to het waiting,
listening ear, “with them above.” Gti.tiy and kli.d y sha
welcome! the heavenly summon?—sot t y and t ndedy she
breathed her farewell, and htr sweet spirt went hr me ward.
In less than half of the circling year, father, m tber, and
two loved and loving sister? have entered t*»e rpMt land. To
the mother first came the summons and she folded her arms
and fell asleep—“asleep in Jesus.” {Soon, on lightatng-wing t
cune the mournful tiding? trom afar, “Bailie U dead!” ana
crushed and broken-heart :d. the doling father aud the weeping
family laid her to rrst beside the sleeping ashes of their sainted
Mary. Less than two months pass, and sgiiu, as it were, on
lightning wing, the agonixieg message comes: ‘the father, too,
has suddenly beea callod from earth!” Oh ! who.shall tell the
anguish ct that hour—the hour that wrote tho>e sons and
daughters orphans? Who shall tell the tearful weight of
sorrow that came crushing down upon the eldest, of the house
hold ? Who shall tell the loneliness of the twilight hour—the
sad waiting for the kind good-mora:ng—*.he weary lorg'ngand
no itturnof that loved paternal laca up theoitfsequ nted
avenue? Gone!—forever gone!—and the sw t et flowers
breatied forth a sad fragrance, and the home bird ings sang a
sadder strain amid the tranches, and the gentle winds moaned
their minor req items through the sighing trees and the sympa
thizing brooks gurgiei forth their sorrow for the hear.hetone
at Millview was desolate—desolate ! Dear Anna’s loving heart
was keenly alive to all the fullness of hsrJbrrow. S weedy
she kissed the red that her Heavenly Father had so often s?nt
upon her, and in gentle submission, the language of her heart
responded, ‘ Though He slay me, yet wllll trust in Him!'
And while (lie felt willing aud desirous to remain and act the
mother to the younger members of the household, yet the lines
above quoted, ‘‘Oh! tn at I were at rest ” A*.” were welcome
to her, and duriDg her Isst painfully severe i lness, 6he desi ed
them often repeated ti her, while she ever yielded a sweet
assent to their » dly prophetic meaning. Her Christian expe
rience was rich and full, and the many comforting assurances
she left behln 10l her unwavering confidence in the faith of
her Redeemer will never b3 forgotten by those who were
privileged to minister to her during the weary suffering of her
mortal illne-s. She delighted in religious reading. A few
days prior to her death, a sweet little waif, titled “ Father*
take my hand,” was read to her; one stanza she desited repeat
ed again and ngiin :
‘ The path is rough, my Father! Many a thorn
Has pierced me ; and my weary feet, sll torn
And bleeding, mark the way. Yet thy command
Bids me press forward. Father take my hand ;
Then safe and bleat.
Lead up to rest
Thy child!
And the kind Father listened to the pleading, and hath doue
even so. His child is at rest. •
Dutiful and affectionate, she was idolized at hon^— unselfish
and kind, Bbe was loved by all who knew her—self-sacrificing,
zealous and devote i, her sweet Christi&n example wi 1 not soon
be forgotten ; and in her death, the light of the bereaved home
circle has gone out, the loved friend has been cut off, and the
Church militant has lost a consistent member. May we who
mourn her, emulate her lovely example, and thus may our
earth-bound spirits be better fitted for the skies!
T her death angel wh'spc’ed, our drfrl’ng i? fled—
Another dear loved one lies low with the dead ;
From the bosom of angels her brig t form wa» given
To caeer for a season, then poim us to heaven.
We mourn thee, sweet inmate of happier skies,
And ihe heutV heavy moaning will ott times arise—
But away in the spirit-land whisper the blest,
Ami tell us our angel is safely at rest.
Must it ever be thus— mu®t the beaut ; ful die ?
Must the Joys we most priz l be soonest to fly ?
'J heep ritgrows m *urutul—the sorrowing bie ut
Cries, “wncra shall the weary-worn spirit find rest ?”
But list to the answer that comes trom above.
*Tia whispered by angels whose m s ion s love ;
•‘lie still, 1 * chilu of earth, for ihe 'halter ing rod
Is held by thy Father, and He is thy God,
Then hush thee, sad spirit, thy murmurings quell.
*Tia thy Father’s hand smites thee, “alt things are done
well ”
His hand, it shall If ad thee, His chart.’ning rod
Shall point thee to happiness, glory an i God.
Bitter tears will embalm the mos?-rovered tomb,
Dark hour* will hang o’er us in sa.Jnesi and gioom ;
B t again shall we meet thee, when iite’s work is o’er.
And the grave shall not claim our beloved evermore!
Then sleep, darling, sleep—it r s well with thee now.
Bright gvlanrsot victory entwine thy air brow,
For Jesus, orr Savior, the promise haih given,
And lold us, “Os such is the kingdom of Heaven,”
