Is The Crescent quotes the remarks Of DR.. john
son that patriotism il the last resort Of scoun-
dreiism." The Crescent should have stated that
this remark was written BY DR.. johnson Tor the
special benefit Of John Hancock, Samuel Adams
and other patriots Of our Revolution, to whom Dr.
Johnson applies language much more classical
but not more imperative, than that Of President
Fillmore to the Cuban patriots. The Crescent
may find in the essay Of DR.. johnson, Taxation
no tyranny" and other equally strong phrases in
reference to the Patriots Of 76 from which to sup
ply the DEFICIENCIES Of its own wit. Go on, neigh
Dor; with the aid of Ursus Major, we have hope
that you will be able to make quite a respectable
show in a tilt with the Delta.
We think the Delta had better edit Boswell, and
correct the errors Of that biographer For we find
in that authors book very different version of the
matter. In the fifth volume, which is devoted to
the year ITS, we find the passage, in no manner
connected with American politics, and for this rea-
son we did not think it worth while to apply the
remark to American wings.
Patriotism. having become one of our topics,
johnson suddenly uttered, in a strong determined
tone, an apothegm at which many may start
Patriotism il the last refuge of scoundrelism.
But let it be considered that he did not mean Z
real and generous love of country but that pre-
tended patriotism, which SO many, in all ages ant
countries, have made a cloak for self-interest."
The Delta recommends to US the political trac
Of DR.. johnson, "Taxaton no tyranny" as if til,
editors Of the Crescent felt less reverence for thu
patriots, heroes and statesmen of the Revolution
than the Delta does. A man might as well sa,

TERRIBLE ExPLosIoN-LOss of Lite.-At Ten
nevar, in Hungary, the powder magazine of the
citadel exploded on the Sd ult., killing twenty per
sons. The following is an account of it, written
from the places
This morning, at seven O'Clock, noise like
thunder was heard all over the city, followed by
sound like heavy fall of rain every window in
the city smashed to atoms; the doors in all the
houses, even those which were locked, were burst
open-masses of masonry strewed the streets, and
a dense mass of smoke darkened the atmosphere
The powder magazine had exploded. In a few
minutes the noise of the explosion ceased, and the
cause was ascertained-the powder magazine near
the Transyvania Barracks, had blown up. Peo-
pie fastened to the barracks as soon as the smoke
cleared away Of the magazine itself-a large
building, with substantial walls-nolhing remained
but a heap of smoking ruins, from which, occa-
sionaly, shell exploded. The whole roof of the
barracks was blown away, the walls riddled with
shells and other materials, which had been thrown
likewise into every part of the town, committing
havoc where they exploded. Legs and arms and
corpses, horribly mutilated, were scattered in all
directions. The exact number of killed has not vel
been ascertained. Two captains and forty prvates
are reported dead. Haitian hour later a whole bat.
talon would have been exercise in the barrack
yard, and probably exterminated. The town gates
are SO seriously damaged that they are unsafe. Al
The moment | am writing, shells continue to ex-
plode, some rising to great height in the air. II
is not safe to venture near the spot. Ten hundred
weight of powder is deposited at no great distance
but 1t is hoped that it will not be ignited. Mem.
hers of some of the unhappy victims were found
1900 yards from the spot. Nearly all the inhabit
have fled from the city for safety. No clue tt
the disaster has ye. been found"

The Crops.


Alabama - The Selma, (Alabama) Southern
Enterprise of the Sth instant, says:
"We have taken some trouble to ascertain the
present condition of the cotton and corn crops.
The cotton generally is very backward, and judg
ing from the present appearances, very small
crop must be made. The weather has been very
cold; cold rains and winds have all contributed to
keep back the young plant. This is not only the
case IN this county, but our exchanges throughout
the South present the same picture. Unless an
unprecedented good cotton season is given US from
this time out, there can be but little cotton made
comparatively. The present appearance Of the
corn crop is also bad"
Louisiama.-The Concordia Intelligencer Of the
10th has this brief, but pregnant paragraph:
"The cold weather which signaized the month
Of April continued through the first week in May.
The planters ploughs still busy in ploughing
up and re-panting the cotton fields that should
have been green. with the vigorous young plants
three or four weeks ago."
In South Cayol.na.-Ert,act of a letter received
| IN Charleston, dated Fairfield District May G
1t has been many years since the planters Of the
upper country have had such disastrous seasons to
| contend with During the entire month of April
| they have had cold and continued rains to encoun.
| ter large portion Of the seed that has been
planted has rotted in the ground, and that which
| is up looks sickly, and is dying rapidly. Man,

crop. and to replant and up to this time, the
weather continues cold and unfavorable."
| In Georgia-Cotton Crop of 1S5l.-The Co
lumbus Times of the Sd inst, says If Jack Eros
has been as busy in other neighborhoods as he ha.
been in this, we think the avenues of commerce in
other markets will exhibit, as it does here, her
rible elongaton in the physiognomy of planters
and corresponding foreshortening in the counte
napces Of cotton holders of the I'd May, 1851. w,
are informed, upon good authority, that the effect
Of the frost the I'd inst. have been very iniuri
Gus to the growing crop; and judging from tn,
variableness and backwardness Of the season, a,
we have personally experienced it, we can only say
that if the crop OF 1851 is not short one, it is be
cause the plant is totally independent of seasons
One fifty acre field, nine miles from Columbus, ha.
been entirely destroyed by the late frost, and W,
Judge that this is but foreshadowing of the new
| to reach us from this onward.
In Mississtppi.-Th Mississippian, Of the 9th
| says: Never in our memory has there been sucl
a long continued spell of cold weather. late in tn,
spring, as for four or six weeks past. On the NOR
ming Of our last publication, I'D nst.,) light fros
was observed here, and we have had continued
chilling north winds since, up to Wednesda,
| evening. The result of this extraordinary season
on the cotton has been most disastrous.

A JUST SENTENCE" Sile Doty," man noto-
rious for his evil deeds throughout the southern
portion of Michigan, was brought up for sentence
before Judge Pratt, at Detroit, last week, when
the following scene occurred:
"Doty, how old are you! 90 Fihy-three, your
honor" "Doty, the enormity of your offence de-
mands that you be sentenced to the State Prison
for twenty years. But, Do,y, we are reminded by
the words of Holy Writ that the days of mans
years are three years and ten shall, there.
fore, in clemency towards you, and in being guided
by the acriptural limit of human life. sentence you
to the State Prison for only seventeen years 4"
Doty was almost overwhelmed with a sense of his
deep obligation to the clemency of the Judge"

A FAST FUNERAL. - On Saturday last two
funeral professions of unusual length, on their
way to the Catholic Cemetery in Cambridge,
neared each other little above Porter's Hotel. A
rivalry Immediately set up between the drivers of
the hearses to see which could reach the gate of
the Cemetery first. BY a great application of the
whip sample of fast driving developed ITSELF but
the race was Of short duration. The coffin in one
OF the hearses was thrown out on the ground, and
before the cortege following could draw up, it was
run over by three or four hacks and seriously mu-
tilated. This accident suddenly put an end 10 the
mad career OF the Jehus. The body was restored
to its proper place. and the two funerals proceeded
in order. Fast driving to the grave often occurs in
| Cambridge. Boston Mail.
