THE CRoPs OF MIssIssirrI.--We are informed
by gentleman from all parts Of the State, saws
the Mississippian of July 10Th, that the crops Of
this year have never been excelled In appear.
ance at this season. The oat and wheat har.
vests are over, and the yield Is sbundant The
quantity of corn will undoubtedly be immense.
More land is planted, and the wondrous growth
excites the admiration Of oil bcholders. There
may not be more acres Of cotton than there were
In some past years, but the present appearance
gives promise Of as fine crop ever has been
picked. Take it for all in all, the earth. ,hi,
year, has and will give greater increase than
We have ever received.
For THE MoUNrAINs.--'rhe st. Louis Union
tells us that the steamer Lake Of the Woods left
on the 18th ult. with company of traders on
board bound for the mountains. She was char.
tered by the firm Of Premean, Harvey & CO..
and took 81 men who are in their employ, and
merchandise to the amount Of about 81, 900.
This company have one trading fort established
at the mouth Of the Yellow Stone, one among
the Sioux, and two or three Others at points
above. This is their second expedition, and if
IL proves successful the first. will be- u very
profitable one, says the Union.
We learn that navigation Of the third pool Of
Green and Barren Rivers will be suspended after
the Goth of August, probably for several weeks.
The object Of the suspension is TO effect repairs

We read together. reading the same book,
Our heads bent forward with half embrace,
So that each shade that either spirit took,
Was straight reflected In the others fee;
We read not silent, not aloud, but each
Followed the eye that passed the page along
With low murmurins sound that was not speech
Yet with much monot0ny
In its half slumbering harmony,
You might not call it song;
More like bee that in the moon rejoices,
Than any customed mood Of human voices.
Then if some maynard or disputed sense,
Made cease awhile that music, and brought on
A strife Of gracious worded difference,
Too light to hurt our souls dear unison;
We had experienced of a blissful state,
In which our powers Of thought stood separate;
Each in its own high freedom set apart,
But both close folded in one loving heart;
SO that we seemed without concei; to be
Both one and two, in our identity.

In the death Of Mr.. Goodwin, our city has
sustained loss which will not be soon supplied.
In every enterprise which had for its object the
improvement of the city, the moral, social, lit
erary, and economical advancement of its pop
ulation, he was foremost among the first. His
industry was untiring, his information exact
his judgment clear, his habits, methodicaily cor-
rect. his feelings and views generous, upright
and benevolent, and his opinions, deliberately
formed, seldom wrong. We shall miss his kind,
familiar face in our daily haunts-his cheerful
wisdom from our fireside meetings, and his ac-
tive philanthropy, from the scenes OF It's c"sto-
mary exercise But we are consoled with the
thought, that he had filled the full term OF three

MILITARY PREcAUTIoNs.-The following is
from the Washington Union Of the 9th ult.
The depredations committed by the Indians
'Pawnees or Osages, Camanches, and others)

turning to the United States, have called upon
the Government for efficient means to repress
them. Some Of these measures were adopted
IN June last, In the orders that were despatched
TO the commanding officer of the Missouri bat
talion Of volunteers. But the time has now ar
nSed for executing these orders, and making the
Indians feel the power Of the Government. To
&c this eectusliy, and to afford adequate protec-
,ion TO the United States "trains," a reputation
has inst been made upon the Governor of Mis-
