AGRICULTURAL ProspeeTs;—The late .
rains have “given vegetation of all kinds a
new start and the beneficial influénee seems’
to have been felt throughout the State. Not
only lave schon fields been benefited,
polo recast sina iaihew:
ers will be sufficient té give grain a good start
before the ground dries again. We should
judge that large crops have been put in this
season than ever before, and the prospect
of plenteous harvests. consequent low
prices during the next year ts excellent.
The . ptime of the year has been peculiarly favorable for the cultivation of moun. thin lands, ond in many sections of the State
the foot-hills have been fallowed and seeded .
to their sdmmits. In this county a large
amount of new land has been broken up and
the grain crop will be larger than, ever before, while the hay produced will be enough
to meet.the home demand. The last rainy
weather is worth millione of dollars to the
““pédple of this Stafe. © :
It is true that great dutbaigd bes been done
peaches,and other fruit treea by the froste
in the mountains, but it is probable that the
Product in the valleys will be larger than
ever before, while the abundance of grapes,
apples and such fruits as bloom late will
fully compensate fer the damage done the
earlier Slooms. Should not another drop of
rain fall, the people of the State can rest assured that the products of the earth will
bo abundant this season; bat then there are
indications that we will be favored with
more rain. We have moist southerly winds . .
and at times the watery'clouds seem to be
‘etmost ready’ to shed their rain, giving evidence that the dry season has not yet come.
More Crries.Occuriep.—We have news
of fhe occupation by the Union armies of
Lynohburg, Virginia, and Montgomery and
Selma, Alabama. Lynchburg, the principal city ia theinterior of Virginia, ‘is situated on the James river, and in 1856 contain. .
~ ed 10,000 inhabitants, It ig connected with
Richmond by the James River Canal, and
with Petersburg by the South Side Railroad.
A railroad also extends to the Tennessee line
“and there eonaects with the railroad system
of that State. These lines of trade give the
city great advantages, while the river affords
immense water power. Montgomery was
before the war one of the most flourishing
Cities of the South-west. It is built upon'a
high bluff, upon the left bank of the Alabama
river, 340 above Mobile, and at the
"head of navigation. The city is located in
the vicinity of.one of the most productive
cotton regions'in the State, and few cities
are soamply provided with means of communication by river and railroad. It was
the first capital of the Confederacy. Selma

he will see between the prosperous and hap»
py condition of the North and the desolated
homes and the starvation which he has been
instrumental-in bringing upon his own State
and the entire South: He leaves his country with the brand of a Judas upon him, and
if his manhood is wot entirélyyoue-he ‘will
be driven, by 1 remorse to follow the —
of the traitor disciple. “He ‘will go.ab
to be'‘tidiiged ‘by the “Johnny Bulls” and
the “Johnny Crapeaus” of England and
Franee, and it is hardly probable that he
will ever again set-foot upon the territory:
of the nation. whose: fing he attempted to dishonor. Though an able General, he wasa
traitor to his country, andin the future Arnold and Lee will be associated on the pages
of American history.: It id well that he has

Generals, seventy Major Generals, sixty-one
Brigadier Generals. Among them are Anderson, Echols, Ewell (already prisoners, )
Finnegan, Heath, , Bushrod Johnson, Kershaw; ‘Longstreet, Mahone, McCauseland,
Moseby and Ould. “The exchange. commissioners were Pemberton, Picket, Rosser,
Sorrel and H. A. Wise. The number of
men actually surrendered by Lee is from.
twenty to twenty-two thousand. Within
the past two weeks. over 20,000 prisoners
have been sent away. from City Point. A
large number is still there. .
AN ABOLITIONIST.—The Democratic
Press, ina recent leader, states that the
new American flag has been placed above
that.office. In speaking of the stars and
stripes, Beriah says: ‘We veuerate it as a
relic of past unity, glory and prosperity, ‘and
earnestly vey. for the time when it agploIn triumph shall oo
O'or the land of the free and the home of the
brave.
Three months ago the Press would-have
considered such a seatiment abolitionism in.
its most radical form. The idea of praying’
that America may become the “land of the
free.” Berioh, that’s unconstitutional.
EASTERN News.—It is reported that
Johnson has surrendered his army upon the
same terms as Lee, and that Kirby Smith is
Texas. The Herald says that prominent
rebels are soon expected tn Washington on
busingss connected with: restoration.
