Since the publication of our last paper, we learn that a Committee was appointed by the Edgecombe Agricultural Society, at its January meeting, to ascertain the crop of cotton of Edgecombe county, in the year 1850. VVe are informed by a member of the Committee, that although reports have not been made from every part of the county, yet sufficient informa tion has been received, to justify the Com mittee in saying, that the crop of 1S50 will exceed 5000 bales. The crop of this year is remarkably good, and in quantity planted will exceed the last from one- third to one-half. , " The census of,lST30, (3300 bales) refers tn tho oron of 1S49.

Of happiness and health, For all the city palaces, Their pleasure and their wea3tV; I lov to breathe the mountain air, And roam where all is free, Let others choose a city life, But a country life for mei
