London as in the neighborhood of Cheapside

hundred wen began dancing in King street. |
The English voluateers seemed much sur-|
prised at first, as did also the ladies who oc-|
cupied all the windows in the street; but

their handkerchiefs, and some Riflemen in}
British uniforms joined in the dancing.

had proceeded into Cheapside were singing |

CROPS IN THE SOUTHERN STATES. |

The Richmond Ecauminer has the following

summary of intelligence in rezard to the crops |
ut the South :— |

“ Our dhily business correspondence is heavy |
with subscribers in middle aud soutnera Georgia, |

‘nud it is to these sections that we would more

particularly divect our remarks.

* Ol the vrain crops, embracing wheat, corn
and vats, we may say that the section referred |
to never produced better to the area planted, |
Provisions for mau and beast will be abundant |
another year, except in the matter of bacon. |

* As resards cotton, the area planted is some-
what, though not largely, in excess of last
year’s crop.

The seasons have been far better, |
alternate sunshine and rain having been visited
ou the earth in very fair proportions. The |
weed has grown of finely uuder a more careful |
culture than last year’s, and is now fruiting to |
the satisfaction of the planters.

* The only drawback to the crop has been |
a super-abundance of rain for the last month
causing an inordinate growth of wood, and the
falling of many of the squares and young bolls.
We do not think, though, from all we can learn,
that the crop will very imaterialiy su®er from
this suuree.

** As regards the general crop, if our informa-
tion be correct from all the cotton-growing
sections, we should estimate it, with all the

| lights beture us, at from 2,800,000 to 3,000,000

bales, barring future disasters. We
think it can exceed the latter fizure
event.

any one to try it:—

“A short time ago we published an argiclo from
