Bedford Springs and M. Buchanan The Cabinet

Barn Bmners-IHs Farmers and their Complaints
of the Drought.
They do say, and we do hope II is So that the
Secretary Of State is going 10 the Bedford Springs in
Pennsylvania next week Mr.. Marcy has had his
pleasure jaunt-so has Mr.. Bancroft-so that in Mr.
Buchanan we can afford to spare Mr.. Cave john
son, Mr.. Walker, Mr. Mason, and the Public Gar
dener provided their duties will admit of their
ABSENCE which isEextremely doubtful. The Presi-
dent has no chance OF escape; nor would he gain
any thing, but rather lose, IN the matters of and
recreation, by flight TO the country IN any direc
ton, even were he TO retreat into The cypress shades
of Dismal Swamp.
Well may he envy John Tyler his quiet retire
ment at Williamsburg, with the James River be-
fore his door, right IN the very midst OF the sea
breezes soft crabs hog-ish, sleeps head, and Nor
folk oysters -Apropos we hear that old Veto is
one Of The happiest old gentlemen this side OF Ore
gen. Well, well, say what you Will, old John for
his vetoes, his Chinese treaty, his Texas bomb his
geod management of the public moneys, nc, has
faster hold upon the affections of "the Masses" as
the demagogues call them, than the politicians ever
dreamed Of But they will find it out by-andb by

Will be introduced by the Executive TO the conside-
ration of the next Congress, will be not The Sub
Treasury repealed al the extra of II, but
sort of hybrid concern, formed Of equa or uneoual
parts f the Old Sub, the Exchequer, the connen-
tai Sub, with strong solution OF the Pet Bank sys-
tenn. We anticipate but little difficulty, however,
on this subject but expect that the Sub lndepen-
dent Treasury of Nr. Van Buren will be resucita-
ted, passed. approved by the President, and re- in
dorsed by Mr.. Rltchie Still, we shrewdIy ex-
pect' that he would prefer the Pet Bank system, if
itwere agreeable to the Executive and the House
OF Representatives.
Henry L. Riel, with his family, has returned from
New York. He comes TO take up his residence
among us, but we are not altogether assured that he
has not compromised, IN some way, his project of an
independent democratic organ here, in opposition
TO the Union. But, IT he has, should there WILL
IN all likelihood, arise another man in his place. as
the especial advocate OF the Van Buren, Wright-Ben-
ton-Aen wing OF the great and concordant demo-
cratic fraternity Honestly we wish Father Richie
were well IN funds, and snugly out OF this perpexing
business
Four O'Clock, P. MA splendid thunder shower
has invaded this region from the Northwest. The
late unparalleled heat, from day to day, for several
weeks IN succession, has almost literally burnt out
the country, from Virginia TO Georgia. Farmers
from the interior Of Virginia say. that corn with
them will command three prices next winter. But
there is one universal failing among the honest yeo-
manry of these United States, and that is a propen-
sty to grumbe. If the crops fail, they say, "yes,
there is good price to be had for farmers
produce, but we hav'nt raised anything If they
have superabundance, they are still dissatisfied,
because, sob, yes we have had good season, but
what's the use, corn fetches nothing in the market"
The fact is, and it is solemn and indisputable fact
that we have never yet met with one farmer in a
thousand, who was satisfied with his crops and
their market va lue at the same time. Now, we be-
evc that there is not going TO be famine either in
Virginia, North or South Carolina, or Georgia As
to the people of Maryland, it is impossible to starve
them oat while they have stock of herrngs on
on hand, and the fine fishing waters of Chesapeake
Bay at their doors. On the whole, the erumbng of
the farmers is to be relied on though there cam
not be question but, in the Southern Atlantic States
their early prospects of rich corn crop have been
entirely cut of by the subsequent drought If the
present rains have had wide scope, their value
will, Notwithstanding be worth millions of money
10 the farmers of the neighboring States.
