Something to Eat.

We doubt much if that very fOrgeful individual,
he Oldest inhabitant," who is never quoted except
for the purpose of showing what he does not remen
Der, could recall season during which, a, some time
or other q terrible panic was not raised or tried to
be raised about the failure of the crops, and the
drest prospect of scarcity thereupon ensuing, and
yet in nine cases out of ten these pancs have turned
out be groundless, being founded most usually up
on local failures, or having their origin in the
ments of that meanest and most heartless class of
spectators, those who base their calculations of
wealth upon the dstesses of the poor whose neces-
saries Of lie they endeaVor to raise TO fictitious
standard, by forestalng the supply, and standing be-
tween the actual producer and the actual consumer.
The farmer seldom gets much of the speculative rise, If
he gets any, while the hard working consumer is un.
merCifuy shaved by the shrewd operator The egiti.
mate trade in breadsus is Just as fair and proper as
any other but will venture the assertion that
more direct and cold-booded heartessness enters into
the calculations of majority of the speculative opera
tors at the North than all the ingenuity of Mrs
Stowe and her co-workers could conjure up in con-
nection with the buying and selling OF slaves even
as carried on by regular traders
The present season has unquestonably proved dis.
asrous to the crops in different sections of the coun.
try, on account of the unusual drought and almost
unprecedented heat. In Western New York in
portions OF Ohio, Illinois, Kentucky and Tennessee
and in Indiana and Missouri, there will be considera
BILE falling off, amounting to from one-eighth 10 one
fourth of the average yield per acre. But, on the
other hand. the amount planted is much larger thai
at any former periodsufcicnt, we believe TO full,
make up for all failures. The shorness of the crop
although extensive, is far from general the produc
al the South will be found above an average; tn
reciprocity treaty with the British provinces will opel
large surplus for the supply Of any defcen
cy. So that, upon the whole, there is really n
ground for panic or excitement Living is higl
enough, in all conscience, and if it is TO get any high
er, we think that scientific research might be useful
ly employed in investigation of the habits of nv
bernatng animals, with view of discovering hoy

Good news from home--good news for me
Has come across the deep blue sea,
From friends that have left in tears
From friends that I've not seen for years.
But since we parted long ago,
My life has been scene of woe,
But now joyful hour has come,
For have heard good news from home.
Good news, sc.
No fathers hand to guide me now,
No mothers tears to soothe my brow,
No sisters voice falls on my ear,
No brothers smiles again to cheer.
But though Eve wandered far away,
My heart is full of joy to-day
For friends across the oceans foam
Have sent to me good news from home.
Good news, &c.
When shall see that cottage door,
Where Fve spent years of JOY before
Twas there knew no grief or care
My heart was always happy there.
Tho may never see it more,
Or stand upon my native shore,
Where'er on earth I'm doomed to roam,
My heart will be with those at home.
Good news sc.

There is in the Navy Yard, Gospor Va. a new
Sloop of War which was launched last Saturday,
called The Constellation rebuild of the Frig-

Stodard about 1877. Some variations has been
made in the new vessel to fit her for carrying the
Paixhan gun, which will make her d match for any
Frgate in the Navy of England and France in the
weight of metal which she can discharge Twenty
feet have been added in the length the stern round
ed, with hanging galies to relieve, and pierced for
two guns between them. The bows are modelled af-
ter the old vessel, but will compare with and of this

The death Of AsBURY P. has thrown a

in the midst Of their tears they can rejoice
that their son, though removed from their
embrace, has gone 10 dwell in the land ol
Immortality, where, with the happy mil
lions OF the skies, he shall ba,he his pure
spirit in the beams Of the Son OF Righte-
BUSINESS. Then, farewell, AsBURY! Thou
art gone! The grave has closed over thee!
Our loss is thy gain! Death has parted US
to meet no more until we shall see thee
around the throne of God May his dear
parents be resigned to the will Of God in
this dispensa,ion OF His providence; meek
ly adopt the language Of one OF old. II
is the Lord let him do as seemeth good
unto him."
Oh! mournful thought. il PETTY dead,
HIS days on earth SO quickly fled!
Yes. angels have conveyed him home,
Where now he sings redemption song.
His stay with Us, how soon twas DER,
Well see his face on earth no more;
! But high in Heaven, where Jesus is,
I He feas,s and lives purest bliss.
] His friends now mourn their loss below,
Their tears Of sorrow sadly flow
But this sweet thought to all is given,
| The bud of earth now blooms in Heaven.
