wHgAT CROPS AT ruiz NORTH.

OHo.-We have just conyersed with gen
tleman who has been riding through the wheat
region of Ohio and he reports that the crop
looks as fine as ii ever did ut this time Of year,
good color, and stands even. If the summer
does as well by it as the winter, he predicts an
unprecedented crop.-ClepeLand Plan Dealer.
MIoHIaAN.--W are informed by gentle
man who has lately passed through many of
the counties in the western and southern por-
tons of Michigan, that the winter has been
qnite unfavorable to wheat and that the crops
in general look quite badly for the season. In
clayey ground it has shove" and exposed ths
roots, and the many vicissitudes and changes OF
the past winter, together with the early disap-
pearance of snow, has tended to winter-kill it.
Detroit Adp.
New YoRK.-The wheat crop has passed the
ordeal Of winter without injury, and, in all this
section, wears very promising appearance. II
is yet somewhat too early to speak positively as
to its exemption from frost, but no reasonable
apprehensions of danger can be entertained.
The plant was usually well grown and rooted
last fall, and the winter has been favorable. 1t
has neither been winter-killed nor smothered by
snow.-iSyracuse Journal.

DEATH PENALTY.-In Michigan repeated at
tempts have been made to revive the death
penalty, during the recent session of the legisla

referring to these efforts, says: " fragrant
crimes of all descriptions have decreased since
the humane law was adopted. There have been
since 1916, in population of $4,000, but

'sIf man desire the Office of bishop" said

The Bishop of London, at a recent ordination,
processing to quote Pauls words, gave them
according to the Church and State Gazette

BLAcKwooD's MAGAZINE


Owing TO the late revolutions and counterreyoutions
" among the nations Of Europe which have followed
each other In such quick succession, and of which the
end not get" the leading periodicals Of Great Britain
have become invested with degree OF interest hitherto
unknown. They occupy middle ground between the
hasy dointed and necessarily imperfect records OF the
newspapers and the elaborate and ponderous treaties TO
be furnished by the historian ut future day Whoever
these periodicals obtains and connected
of all the important political events of the Old
World they occur and learns the various conclusions
drawn from them by the leading spirits of the age The
American publishers therefore deem it proper TO call
newed attention to the works they publish and the very
low prices at which they offered to subscribers The

Brewster Its literary character Is of the very highest
order The Westminster, though reprinted under that
title only published in England under the title Of the

this combination of uniting in work the best features
of both, as heretofore issued.

Some people are so much inclined to judge,
that they are always ready to censure and cor
rect others; these, instead of repenting, often
get astray themselves, and do great hurt to
those that hear them, by raising in their minds
slight and scorn Of their friends; this gene
rally proceeds from pride and an unwarrantable

be ratified, there will be a rush TO that beautiful
cline from various sections Of the Union.
The treaties are, perhaps, the most important
which have been negotiated with Indian tribes
Tor the past quarter Of century. They will
bring millions Of rich lands into the market,
and abundant revenue into the public treasury.
The treaties are of peace and philanthropy, and
will relieve the Indians from their present suf-
fering condition. AT present they live, many
of them against their will, in a rude state of
communism. The powerful despoil the weak
of their goods. 1t is therefore natural that the
oppressed should desire protection, as under the
prevailing system, there is no inducement for
them to become agriculturists, as they fear the
result Of their industry would be wrested from
them by the idle and vicious.
