In referring to the recent freshet the Goldsboro' Messenger says: "The freshet is doing tremendous damage-to the crops, in this section. The overflow will doubtless surpass that of 1867. The river lands in the counties of Wayne, Lenoir and Johnston are almost entirely overflowed, and on many of the plantations the dwellings and outhouses are in water, while others are completely surrounded; occupants having only access to land by means, of boats. Among the largest sufferers, we learn, are M. J. K. Miller, a Northern gentle man who, for several years, has been engaged in farming on 7 the old Collier plantation, about five miles from Golds boro. He, it is estimated has nearly or about 400 acres of cotton under water. Dr. Adam C. Davis' entire crop of cotton, about- 100 acres is under y? aterl while Messjs. Atkinson, W. TV Dortch. Fred C. Patrick. I). DCarroll, Charles Pete, M, Grant, Hiram S.

Eutaw Whig. Theacts of the last session of tho Alabama Legiskature have been neatly printed. in a book containing 512 pages, at a cost to the State of several thousand dollars. This 'book embraces only six acls of a general character. Of these, the one ; establishing a chancery court in each" county is very good ; but it reflects no credit on the Assembly, as its enact ment was required by a plain' provision of the Constitution. The one allowing the offending as well as offended party.iu divorce Cases . to marry again, j is bad. The other four are unnecessary4 j and all are of doubtful validity as they amend former laws without reciting them in full.
