THE WEATHER AND CROPS.

We have had no rain in this section Of country
since the 25th of last month. The wheat harvest
commenced last week. and most Of the wheat
throughout the State VIII be cut during the pres
ent week Wheat, we learn, promises well. The
oat crop will be an Indifferent one, owing to the
lack of rain-the late-sowed will hardly be high
enough to cut. Corn is somewhat behind, owing
to the cool weather. but has rot been much affect
ed thus far by the drouth. The farmers, we
however learn, have found it difficult to obtain
good stand. The cool weather is also operating
against cotton. The tobacco stand is an indiffer-
ent one, the plants having failed to come up, and
in some localities having been washed away or
destroyed by freshets. Tobacco lands in some pla-
ces have been planted with corn.
The papers in the South and Southwest are
complaining of the drouth, which has prevailed
quite injuriousy in Alabama, South Carolina, and
Georgia.
The whole Spring has been unusually cool and
dry, like the Spring and Summer of 1850, and
signs indicate dry and cool Summer. Little va
Dor seems to be in the atmosphere, and. according
to Espy the deaUpoint has been very high through
out the season.

REFERRIxG Laws To THE People. We see it
stated that the Supreme Court OF the State of New
York have decided that any law, becoming snch by
The popular vote, is unconstitutional. The ground
OF this decision is, that by the constitution of each
State, the Legislatures are designated as the only
Iaw-making powers, and they have no rghttc trans
fer their responsibility the people at large. II this
be correct, The Maine Liquor laws Of some Of the
States fall to the ground while those who advocate
such reference elsewhere, must change their ground

CONGRESSIONAL OFFICE BEGGING. We learn from
Washington that large number of members Of Con-
gress still there. boring for petty cerkshps in the
departments for their relatives and friends. AS
mailer of friendship to those they seeking 10 have
appointed, it is hoped they will not succeed. 1t is
miserable life for any man capable of earning a
living in any other way. The salaries are moi sufi-
cent 10 support families in Washington, unless with
the m osl painful economy. In few years clerk
finds himself removed, by the process of" rotation "
the by which he himself obtained Office
without money, often times in debt. The mono NOUS
vegetation of his official Ell tence has disqualified
him for more vigorous pursuits, and yet, under all
these disadvantages, he is obliged, moments nor

But simply desire TO notice the fact that so
many members of Congress are fighting for those
very petty spoils at present, and to suggest that it
is scarcely for such duties they elected by the
people. They degrade their position, and lower their

ACCIDENT TO GEN. ScoTT. We learn from the
u. Y. Post tina; Gen. Scott met with an accident on
Wednesday night, which is likely to prove somewhat
serious. AS he passing down the Fifth avenue,
between the Eighth and Ninth streets, about hall.
past nine o'cInck, he stumbled against tagging
stone that had been raised above the surrounding
pavement, ami fell headlong. He assisted
promptly by some gentlemen who happened to be
near, aud taken home When they offered TO sup
port him by the he said, Don't touch that,
believe it is broken" This, however, it is hoped,
is not the case. His face also badly bruised.
The night quite dark, and the rreguarity in the
pavement not visible.
The Tribune of yesterday says his arm was not
broken. bni he severely bruised, and his right
shoulder disucaed. Had he struck his right shout
der, which has been badly wounded by musket
ball. the consequence would have been more serious.
DR.. Mott reduced The dislocation, and, on Thursday
night, the General was considerably better, although
suffering some pain.

GATHER AND CLINGMAN. From all the most re-
fable of information from which have
heard, we led to Judge that Col Gather will beat
MIR. Clingman in this election about as badly the
latter did the former in the las! election. This is
" contamination devoutly TO be wished, " and one
that will fens'ate the Wing party of that great
serve of sound political faith in its proper position
So mote it be. Charlotte TThig.
If the Wings "most reliable sources of infor-
nation" are of this character, what must be his
ordinary sources We learn that it is admitted on
all hands in the Mountain District with the excep-
ton of Col. Gather himself, that Mr.. Clingman
will be reelected. This majority will range from
fourteen hundred to three thousand.
The Wing party of the great reserve " is no
more. The people of that region have at length
seen for themselves the character and purposes
of Federalism, and they will act accordingly.
Cingman will not only be triumphantly sustained,
but Federalism will be rooted out of those "abodes
Of the free and the brave .
