The CRoPs.---W Within the last two or three
weeks we have travelled / 900 miles in the State OF
New York, and everywhere have made it point to
observe and inquire after the crops The uniform
testimony in regard to wheat is, that the crop is be-
yond an average We, however, saw many fields
which did not come up to our expectations, while
others were as good as could be reasonably desired
Passing into Canada, we found the wheat crop there
also very fine. Gentlemen from the into rior gave
the same account. We also saw persons from
Michigan, Ohio, Illinois, and other Western StAtes
Even IN OHIO, the crop is now thought to be a full
average. In Michigan, Wisconsin, and parts o.
Indiana and Illinois, il never was surpassed The
accounts from Pennsylvania are also favorable In
Virginia the crop is full average, and in MARYLAND
more than AN average.
To make long story short one, it may be said
IN general that the wheat crop of the country is one
of the largest in quantity, and best in quality, that
ever was gathered For this all ought to be thankful
and especially consumers Besides supplying the
home market, there will be plenty for people abroad
as much, at any rate, as they will be willing to pay
for
In regard to other crops where we went, (and VIC
passed through Massachusetts and Connecticut, as
well as New York; it may be remarked, that the
grass-crop will be nncommonly light and the same
with oats. Very little rye is grown in the northern
and eastern sections of New York; and of the fields
which we saw, none appeared equal to some which we
met with on the comparatively poor soil of Connec-
ticut. Indian corn, three weeks ago was everv-
where backward and unpromising; but the warm
weather since, has brought it forward with aston
ishing rapldity, and there is now prospect of an
average crop. Much however, depends in The
northern port of New England, New York, and
Ohio, upon exemption from early frosts Potatoes
generally look well, though we hear that in some
places, the disease of last year has again made its
appearance.
Az the date of our excursion, (say from The 4th TO
the 18th instant severe drought prevailed in Can.
ada, in Erie and Niagara counties, New York, and
IN portions OF the Connecticut river valley. In fact
the whole country between the Connecticut and
Hudson was suffering more or less from the same
cause. showers have since fallen in this vicinity,
and 1t is probable that they have visited the parched
places above mentioned
The farmers have had delightful weather for hay
ing and harvesting; and the crops, to great extent
have been already housed in the finest condition
Such thing as smut is scarcely known; and very
little complaint has been made Of fly. II we do not
have good bread this year. il will be the fault of the
bakers.-.Ntp York Journal Of Comweree.

Low FARES ON RAILRoADs.-The Railroad Jour.
| nal is intoxicating the doctrine that slow fares and
high speed for passengers will, most railroads
in this country, tend to increase the profits of the
shareholders, and thinks that the roads between
New York and Washington would especially be
benefited by such a policy--low fares and high
speedes thousands Of the citizens would like to,
and would, visit Washington, if the rates of travel
were lower, and less time were consumed.
The Journal argues in this wise, and, as we
think, with great force.--Bah Sum-
"Why should person, on going to Washington,
be compelled to sleep on the wayi He may do so
irice, If he chooses yet there should be one train
day, leaving New York ut 5, p. m, by which pas
sengers may be in Washington certainly by 8
O'Clock next morning, and at cost not exceeding
s.. Then people might go to Washington, transact
business, and be at home again IN thiriy.six to
thrty-eight hours, and ut cost Of twelve or thir-
teen dollars. A through ticket for five dollars, TO
be dvdeJ-three dollars TO Philadelphia, two dol
lars to Baltimore, and one dollar to Washington
with an average speed Of twenty miles an hour,
would add vastly to the travel these roads, and
we have no doubt that il would, within year, ma
terially increase the income Such line, to carry
the great southern mail, merely leaving and recev-
ing mails at Philadelphia and Baltimore, would give
important facilities to the business community and
such line will yet be established, because the rail-
way proprietors will find TO their interest to do it,
or this we have not a doubt.
"We might cite the Weserproad, from Worces-
ter to Albany, evidence Of high fares-that is
comparatively high--drving passengers by the way
Of New York, simply because they travel $50
miles by the way Of New York, cheaper than 900
miles over the rairoad. But upon this subject we
are not quite ready TO speak"

THE DAILY UNION

bined to create il II falls to pieces of itself and, on
the contrary, the democratic party, now IN the as
having disposed of all minor differences, is ready TO
rally around the STANDARD Of liberty, in act as well
as in thought and speech.
Such is The dawn which we see beyond the little
clouds of faction and place, which have set by the
the small politicians and presses of the present
day.

The poor, who consume salt, in any of its nu-
merous preparations, pay tax Of IS per cent. on

man, who buys cotton shirt, is taxed so per cent.
The manufacturer, whose wealth makes him afford
linen shirt, is taxed 25 per cent
The Argus, published at Madison, Wisconsin
Territory, claims the true doctrne--which every
democratic paper in the world ought to advocate
that tariff, not only means of ''protection,"
either objective or incidental but as a system of tax
alton for the support Of the government the most
outrageousy unjust and unequal system of taxation
which could well be devised, and one which, in our
country, would not be submitted to for a single year.
If It's practical operation were properly understood.
IL does not, however, suggest any other means Of
raising a revenue, which shall be more direct and
we confess that we have not yet been able TO
any mode Of supporting the government which is
much better than the under which it has ex-
listed, to warrant the rick and experiment of a
trial.
The Cincinnati Enquirer thus happily disposes of
of the stale arguments Of the tariff orators, who
maintained that the farmers could have some Of the
best cold cuts from the tariff feast:
"fIr,vr c,LIeo.-A whig candidate for Congress in nd

Of the cotton mills of Massachusetts alone in one year

the locos repeal such tarh-the farmers tarih!'p
These and thousand other indications Of the
times cannot be mistaken. The tariff system only
exists by vice in legislation, in opposition to the
natural sense Of justice and of right. But il was
brought into existence by a combination of causes
which has ceased. BY a unity of political influence
and monopoles, by studied perversion of the TRUTH
by false promises TO the farmers, and appeals TO
popular prejudices, false legislation was created

THE TARIFF.

Il is some time since we made promise to the
"Tribunep TO give him an occasional echo of the
murmurngs from the agricultural portion o. the
country, against the iniquites of the tariff OF 1872
He knows the faith of the ''Post" on this subject
so WELL that it would be worth while to repeat
to him arguments of our own, or even to state
again facts which occur under our own knowledge
in this commercial metropolis for he would tell us
that although the interests Of the city are decidedly
for free trade, yet the expression OF that opinion
would be merely local. If we assume that COM
merce will thrive best whenlet free and unshacked,
he would reply that commerce is but one OF the lead
ing inter esls OF the country and inferior in the
estimate of Congress The manufacturing interest,
which cannot exist according to his theory, without
protection.
In that case, to conduct the argument fairly, we
must call in third party-the farmers.
In one Of our exchange papers, the following
comparative table of taxes is given:
