A CHrLD THzEE DATs n rHE WOODS.
"A girl ten years old. lost her way in
crossing s woods in Warwick, Orange
county, New York, and was found after
three days search. The Middleton
WAis says:
Although despairing, the search was
continued by hundreds on Sabbath
morning. and soon traces Of the little
wanderer were found; with renewed
vigor they prosecuted their search. and
about noon q joyful shout proclaimed
that the lost one was found. Her uncle
found her reclining between two rocks.
with her head resting on a stone, in
which place she had slept all night
She was awake, but very weak. She
gave brief account of her wanderings.
The first night she slept on a bunch OF
laurels, the next under rock. She had
nothing to eat during the three DAYS,
except three May apples and two straw
berries. She said she was not fright
ened but once, and that was at a large
snake, who Aattened his head when she
saw it.

The CRors SoUTm AND WEsr.-Ac-
cording to accounts from some direc-
tions. it turns out that the crops have
not been injured as much as was sp-
pretended.
The Chattanooga (Tenn. Advertiser
of the ED ult.. says:
"Corn is very much improved by the
recent rains. We have met many
friends from different sections of the
country, and from them we gather that
this crop will not be much of failure
after all. We have news also from
South Georgia and Alabama, which
speak very encouragingly Of the pros
poets. 1t is very seldom that Tennes-
see fails in her corn crop, and although
it has suffered much, we are not with
out hope that the corn win average a
CROP"
The saudersville (Ga. } Georgian Of
the 22d ult., says:
Since our last issue we have bad
generally throughout the country abun-
dant rains, and the prospect is now fat
tering, that the injury to the corn crop
(which in some sections of the county
was as great as that by the drought last
year) may be counterbalanced by a
heavy pea, potato and turnip CROP
Cotton looks well, and although the
weed is generally smaller than usual
there is little doubtof an average yield.
The Louisville Journal of Friday has
the following:
In conversation with farmer in this
county and an observant gentleman OF
Clark county, Indiana, the former in
formed us that he would make 20 BUSH
els of corn to the acre, and in Clark the
yield would average 80 bushels to the
acre. If these statements are correct
it would seem to indicate that the corn
crop will not be as deficient as supposed,
particularly in the vicinity of the Ohio
river. A few weeks will determine the
matter.
Crops IN WESTERN WIscoEsIN.-The
Mineral Point Tribune of the 3Oth ult.,
says:
In this vicinity, and we think,
throughout Wisconsin and northern
Illinois, the corn cropis unusually heavy.
Some fields were injured by storms a
few weeks since, but as a general thing
the crops were never better. Wheat
and Oats were very heavy, although
some fields were injured by too much
rain during the season of harvesting.-
Potatoes are abundant, but fears are
entertained that they may yet be in
jured by the rot.

GREAT RIoT IN NEWARK, N. j.
The American Protestant Association oi
Lodgers in the State of New Jersey
had procession at Newark yesterday.
There were nearly two thousand in
the line of procession, and while passing
William street, near High, and in the
immediate vicinity of the Roman Catho-
lie church, which neighborhood is thick
ly settled by Irish Catholics, man in
the procession was knocked down and
at the same time one or two shots were
fred at the procession from the Catho-
lie church. This was the signal for a
general riot, and the entire procession
broke its lines and entered the church,
which, in few minutes, was completely
the doors and windows were
broken in, the seats torn up, the altar
and the organ destroyed.
Pistols and other weapons were used,
but only few were seriously injured
John Mccarthy was fatally wounded and
another man seriously cut. There is
great excitement and further trouble is
anticipated.

HIeH PRIoEs.-The local editor Of
the Ohio State Journal went 70 market,
few mornings since, with big basket
and three dollar bill in his pocket. ex-
peeting-to ell the former with edibles
and return with at least two dollars in
change from the latter. But he met
with quite disappointment-read what
he has to say:
After mixing in with the crowd of
hungry individuals that most do con-
gregate there, we were struck with the
grim and savage look that every body
seemed to have put on. All the men
appeared to be muttering with clenched
teeth about something and all the wo-
men were scoldlng and fretting worse
than though it were wash day. We
heard the buyers ask the price of the
various articles for sale, in tones that
would have taken the head off ten
penny nail. Everybody looked cross
as a wet hen, and nobody cared il
everybody saw that they were cross
and in an ill-humor. A dark cloud
seemed settled upon every mans brow,
and lightning seemed to fash from every
pretty woman's eye-at least we
thought Sc. But what mattered that
to us. We had a big basket on our
arm, and a three dollar bill in our
pocket. We bought meat, and toma-
toes, and butter, and eggs, DC. Our
basket was nearly full. and our three
dollar bill was about gone; only little
change-a very little change left. We
approached villainous looking coun-
tryman and asked the price of potatoes.
"Two dollars a bushel," said he. How
much, said we, our dander rising, and
our voice quivering. 1.-TWO dollars a
bushel," said the hard-hearted wretch.
We now read the riddle. We unravelled
the mystery. No wonder everybody
looked so grum. Tco dollars bushel
for potatoes. Isn't it too bad? We
left the market house in disgust. We
feared an outbreak. We hunted over
our exchanges, savagely, to find how
potatoes we're selling in other towns, in
order that we might put in what little
was left of our three dollar bill, and
club with somebody else, to buy pota-
toes where they are not so dear. Dela-
ware potatoes are selling at retail,
81, go; at Springfield, sl.40; at Cleve-
land, S1,25; at Lancaster, S1,O0; at
Athens, s1,OO; at GalIipolis, Toe; at
Toledo, 621c; at Coshocton, 50c.-
Any body wishing to speculate in the
potatoe trade would do well to study
this item.

MURDER IN LoUIsvILLE.-The Louis
vile Courier of Friday says that on
Thursday morning at an early hour, the
dead body of James F. Mcgowan, son
of David Mcgowan, Esq. of Lexington,
was found on Market street, a few doors
below Sixth. The throat of Mcgowan
had been cut, and his back stabbed in
one or two places. About midnight
there was party at the Eclipse House
drinking, and among the number was
the deceased. Whether he was killed
in the house, or after the riotous fellows
had got on the street, is not known
A man named Smith has been arrested
and lodged in jail, charged with the
murder.
The Courier says, we understand that
a gang of young men were parading the
streets at late hour of the night, even
after midnight, with bottle Of brandy,
and that they were at the scene of the
murder either just before or at the time.
One of their number, youth by the
name of Self, was arrested last evening
as participator in the midnight mur-
der. What a commentary upon the
morals of our city!

The BIBLE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
Commissioner Potter, of Rhode Island,
has lately decided against Protestant
children being compelled to read the
Catholic version Of the Bible, or Catho-
lie children being compelled to read the
Protestant version. We quote from
his decision as follows:
1 have thus far only referred to the
case of Catholics and Protestants, but
the same rule, of course, would govern
in case of any person who had con-
scientious objections.
The power to regulate the books and
exercises of the school is entirely in the
hands of the school committees. No
parent sending to the school has right
to interfere with it, from mere whim or
caprice, for this would be to have no
system at all. But this power is to be
construed subject to the great constitu-
tional provision for freedom of con-
science. Any person, therefore, has
right to object in such cases from con-
scientious motives, and from these only.
Our school system is a part of the
machinery of this State, supported by
the funds of the State, and no one has
right to use it as a means to enforce
upon others his own religious views.

good deal of sickness in the Ohio Pen
itentiary. A large number of prison
ers are afflicted with the scurvy. Ty-
phoid and Intermittent fevers are very
prevalent. Fourteen deaths have oc-
CURED since the first of August. Much
Of the sickness is to be attributed to
the excessive heat of the weather and
to the badly ventilated cells in which
the prisoners are confined. We believe
the Warden has done everything in his
power to guard the general health Of
those who are placed under his control,
and to alleviate the sufferings Of the af-
