tee of the Roman emigration at Perugia has voted an ad-
dress to the committee for the monument to Martin Luther
at Worms, declaring that it joins in the homage rendered
to him who represents the struggle of freedom of con-
science against the Court of Rome."
THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.—The accounts
of the crops are satisfactory, except on the thin and poor
soils. The wheats have now, with little exception, com-
pleted the blooming, and are looking strong, vigorous, and
upstanding. For all other crops rain is now desirable,
indeed, should the dry and hot weather continue for
another week, considerable anxiety will begin to be felt
for the results. No finer time could have been.experienced
for haymaking, and this crop has been get up in drat rate
condition. The yield, however, is remarkably
deed, should rain prevail in any quantity during the com-
ing month the probability is that the second crop will in
bulk exceed the first. Recta, pa.sturea, oats, barley, beans,
and peas all want rain, and the barometer is now daily
watched with anxiety. From the hop districts the ac-
counts continue to be satisfactory up to a certain point,
though all our correspondents allude to the great advan-
tage which '• good and soaking showers" would confer.—
