4 Look at the Country and Crops.

We spent most of the time during the
past two weeks in viewing the country
and crops in a large portion Of central
and Northern Ohio-passing through the
counties of Delaware. Morrow, Richland.
Ashland, Lorain. Erie, Huron. Crawford.
Marion. and Franklin. We saw and
learned much that was interesting to US,
and took some notes that would interest
manv Of our readers, if we could only
find time TO write them out, but at pres
ent we can only say few words about
the crops.
The wheat harvest was every where
quite as bad failure as has been repre-
scented in our columns. Only in very
few counties in the North part Of the
State, is there anything like fair yield;
while in the great wheat districts the
crop is very deficient in yield and quality.
and many fields were not harvested at all
OF hay an abundant crop has been Sc
cured in most parts. and generally in
good order. Oats are fair crop, though
the growth Of straw has been too heavy
for the best quality of the grain. Clover
seed throughout Richland and Crawford
counties. where the greatest quantities
are annually raised, promises to be~a fair
crop. though IL Is 100 SOO!l ~ NC sure yet
Ruckwheat is finely in blossom, and the
prevalence of cloudy weather is very ia
vorable for it. Potatoes every where
promise an abundant and healthy crop
and we do not believe the rumors that are
spread. about sickness and death being
occasioned by eating potatoes.
The corn crop. our greatest staple, ev-
cry where gives glorious promise of an
abundant yield, and the number ofacres
is we think greater than ever before
This. with the prospect Of high prices for
the grain. lowing to foreign demand, }
should cheer up the farmers, and cause
them to forget the loss they sustain by the
failure Of the wheat crop.
Three weeks ago. I'VE took drive
through the counties of Pickaway, Ross,
Fairfield, and Perry. The prospects
there agree with what is stated above
The corn crop in the Scioto valley never
was better-so says ''the oldest inhabi-
tant'' The cattle feeders of that noted
region are beginning to marshal their for
ces tor the winters campai gn; and we
! have never before seen such splendid
herds Of steers as are now on the farms

It seems that the Locofocos of Guy aho-
ga have passed a resolution. constructive
~ in favor OF the admission Of slavery into
the territories of New Mexico and Cali

This proviso was reported by Mr.. JEFF
!erson. IN 1884. and reads as follows:
That after the year 1900. of the Chris
tan Era. there shall neither be slavery
nor involuntary servi,ude. in any of said
States. otherwise than in punishment OF
crimes. whereof the party shall have been
convicted, or have been personally gull

We notice this. because it appears Ike
deliberate design. on the part of the
Locotoco leaders. to impose on the peo-
pie. and leave. at the same time. them
selves at liberty TO act upon the question
of slavery extension. as they please
The Jefferson proviso" and the anti-sla.
very enactments of the Ordinance oil
1897. &re very different things. They
have in fact nothing in common but a
trivial resemblance in the use by both. Of
single technical phrase. The one
would have secured the unrestrained
planting and growth of slavery in free
territory for the period of sixteen wears.
and if adopted would have made Ohio a
slave state; the other put an instant ex-
tingusher upon the institution. at once
and forever To adopt the principles OF
the jefferson pr0riso. would be to allow
slavery to become rooted and vested for a
period OF ten. fifteen. twenty or thirty
years. under the promise that it should
then be abolished. Do the Locofocos de.
sire this. that they are so jealous for the
jefferson proviso!-[Ohio State Jour.
