, A GENERAL DRouGHT.-Fsom all quarters o.
the Union we have complaints Of continued dry
weather. From the northeast westward to
Missouri, and from Lake Erie southwark 70
Alabama, there i the same complaint Of drought
and the suffering of vegetation from the lack Of
rain. 1t is good thing that the wheat crop
and other crops Of small grain, and our green
and summer vegetables, ell ovef the country
had the be neGt of The copious SHOWS and rains
of the last winter and spring, and the early sum-
mer, otherwise the high prices Of breadstuhs
and provisions would have been vastly higher.
Upon the whole, the substantial crops oil graio'
grass and vegetables this year, are consider
ably above an average in quantity and qual.ty
aad we have no doubt that, notwithstanding
the complaints which are pouring in upon u
from the North, South, East and West. concern
ing the corn crop, that it will "turn out better
than was expected" It always does. It is in
vsriably perfectly safe to allow liberal mar
gin for the grumbling of our farmers ant
planters. There is no danger Of famine from
the drought.

THE Cry INSPECTORS REPORT on swirl.
MnK.-We publish elsewhere communication
from The City Inspector, presented to the
Board of Counoilmen, on the 10th inst, and
ordered by that body to be printed,) in rel,-
tion 10 the sale OF diseased meat and manufac-
tufed milk in thi, city. As milk is an article
Of consumption more or less used In every
family, it is matter of vital Importance for
the public to know the various facts which this
communication brings to light. 1t presents
most revolving picture of the manner in which
city used milk is produced, and gives us some
idea of the extent to which the foul traffic In
the spurious article is carried on. The sale OF
diseased meat is matter of no less importance
to our fellow citizens, and we earnestly recon-
mend to oil the careful perusal and considera-
tion Of the document in question. 1.-THE repre-
sensations Of the City Inspector should prove
correct, We heartily join with him in asking
aid from our Common Council in the premises,
and expect that vigorous endeavors will be
made to remove these outrageous nuisances
from the city.

The question of re- electing Seward to the United
States Senate, 1t would not be very surprising
should an anti Seward Legislature be elected,
through the mysterious agescy Of the new M
tive American societies.
The Know Nothing party, the Irish Catholic
party, the lager bier party, and the Saratoga
party, are outside parties, making no State
nominations of their own, but fixing upon their
selections and reflections from the whig, the hard
OF the soft she'll democratic tickets, as the case
may be. The temperance party, at their State
conventions, will probably follow the same
course in regard to their State ticket, includ-
ing the Governor. But in the elections to the
Legislature there will doubtless be, especially
here In New York an unusual n0mber of In.
dependent and outside candidates in the field.
and en- unusual number OF the more regular
nominations defeated. Very well. The more
the merrier. The wings having settled upon il
that the coalition candidate will be the next Gov
ernor, II only remains now to determine who Is to
be this candidate. Seward is not available. Gree
ley might answer on the liquor question; bat
Greeley, too, is ct war with the Know Nothings,
and must he set aside. The whig candidate for
onr Governor must be an anti-slavery man,
Maine law man, and Know Nothing. And we
need such candidate, because the remains OF
the late whig party, in their fasion with the
outside factions Of the State, are admirably
adapted For this triangular combination.
Our November election will be scrub race
OF The most heterogeneous complications, and
our next Governor win be q political monde
script part whig, part abolit,onist, partly
Maine liquor law, and in part Kuow Nothing.
We think so, because the wings arc free to DO
as they may please, and they are ready for any
thing, for their stomachs are empty and they
ore hungry for the spoils They have tho in
tetval between this day and the twentieth Of
September in which TO dream Of the lucky
