THE CROPS.

From every quarter, we hear very unfavor-
able accounts of tho Wheat crop.
The IIagerstown (Md.) Torch Light says
1.-THE Wheat will scarcely be an average
crop. 1t is very short in the stock, stands
thin On the ground and in many instances
has been seriously injured by the fly, and
fear Is now entertained Of the rust" Since
this was written, the wet and warm weather
has doubtless brought on the rsSs, which is
thus dreaded.
The Somerset (NId.) Herald says--''This
has been, thus far, one of the most unpropiti-
Gus seasons in this region, ever remember
ed"
The Wheeling Times thinks ''The Wheat
crop in the valleys will be pretty good; on
the hills 1t is almost an entire failure, many
fields having been poughed up"
The great wheat country OF Western New
York will not yield more than enough, says
letter to the Journal of Commerce., for its
own consumption and for seed.
With Us and around us, as far as we can
learn, very extensive injury and, in many
places, entire destruction of the crop, have
been occasonedb by the rust. Before the late
rains and the hot sun which Immediately fol-
lowed, the crop was unusually promising, but
since these causes have been at work, the
blight has been almost universally fatal

TIL; WHEAT CROP.

Two gentlemen Of long experience in grain
growing, and who have just returned from
making the tour of the Western counties of
Virginia and of Frederick and Washington
counties in this State, represent the present
prospects for a full yield of Wheat as very
cheering. The recent rains, from which
damage to the growing crop was anticipated,
have had very beneficial effect generally in
bringing up the under heads and in increas-
ing their size and iulness. Ii the present
favorable state OF the weather continues for a
week or ten days, the crop will not only be u
full average one in quantity, but the quality
also will be very superior. In some places
the straw does not stand as thick on the
ground as in some former seasons, but the
size of the heads will fully make up for any
deficiency from this cause. In the Middle
town and Pleasant Vallies in this State and
in the Winchester Valley in Virginia partc-
ularly. the prospects are very good. We are
also informed tina: much largcr quantity of
wheat was sown last Fall than usual, the
farmers having to a considerable extent sub
sttuted it for rye. The production OF the lat
ter article will consequently be reduced, but
this deficiency will be more than made up by
the increased quantity of wheat raised
Some very fine specimens of Mountain wheat
have been handed to us, taken promiscuous-
ly from field of 40 acres in Washington
County, which, it is estimated will Weld 40
bushels per acre.-BaH. finer. June 30.

TnE ARGUMENT IN A NursHr11.

Congress has the power TO establish Bank
in the District--so said Van Buren, i'm his let
ter TO Sherrod Wiliams-and so Richie and
all the rest have sad--lt may insert a clause
in the charter granting the privilege to estab-
Iish branches any where, with as much right
as it can insert any other.ciause.
The action on the part of Congress then is
constitutional.
ged to locate a branch within its limits. The
action ofthe States then is also constitutional
These f,co constitutional acts, it is contend
led, when conjoined, make an unconstitutional
one. This is locofoco logic.-WHIo.

Distribution and .2ssuniption.--Mr VIM.
Cost Johnson, in his able opening speech in
favor of the Distribution bill, brings to mind
a fact which we have not before seen advert
ed to-that the general government did, in
the year 1870, actually assume certain State
debts--to wit: Sin behalf of N. Hampshire
debt of $500, 900; Of Massachusetts, ST.
100000; of r. Island, 100000; of n. Y,
&2,200,000; of N. Jersey, 100000; of
Pennsylvania, s2,200,Oo0: of Delaware,
100000; of Maryland, $500, 900; Of Vir-
ginia, So, 1000; Of n. Carolina 2,100,-
600; Of S. Carolina, Si,O0O,0OO; (did the
committee hear four millions for S. CarOh-
no;) Georgia, 100000" Mr.. J. did not
rccur to this historical fact for the purpose OF
advocating the assumption ofSta,e debts now =,
(Which indeed nobody except few stockjob-
bers would sustain,) but simply for the pur-
pose of showing that what was done in the
purer ages of the Republic, might, if it were
proper, be done again, without stabbiDg the
good old tuiion,--which, by the way,
has been wounded SO often, according to the
notions of some astu:e gentlemen, that it
would long since have been defunct if it had
not been e,dued with extraordinary vitality.
