The Wheat Crops.

A '0Guano Convention" was held in Wash
ington City last week, composed OF farmers from
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and North Caro-
lima; and during the session members were call
ed upon to give their opinions as to the con-
dition of the wheat crop in the regions with
which they were respectively acquainted The
conclusion arrived at was that the present grow
ing wheat crop was less than an average by
one-third in all the States named, and in the
counties of Pennsylvania adjoining Delaware
and Maryland. Mr. Rufin said that in the
tide-water region of Virginia the wheat is now
suffering more from Hessian fly than for fifteen
wears past Mr. Cooke, Of Prince George coun-
ty, and Mr.. Hubbard, of Buckingham, concur
red in the opinion. Mr.. Wilson, of Clarke, said
that in his county where land was good there
would be an average crop, but on other lands
the crop would be an utter failure. Another
gentleman reported that in the Northern Neck,
about Fredericksburg, and neighboring the Rap
pahannock, there would be no crops to reap /;
Joint worm and fly are making havoc. A gen.
tleman from Spottsylvania said that farmers
were proverbially set of croakers. As for his
region, including Orange, Oulpeper and Abe
marie. the wheat was better than it had been
for several years.
Iu this county, so far as we can learn, the
wheat ON fallow land is good but very indiffer-
ent ON corn ground. But we confess our inabil-
;tv TO ascertain the fact in reference to the mat
ter even here. Two farmers have told US in
general terms the wheat was first rate, but the
majority of them give an entirely different &C

The Magnetic Telegraph.

Messrs. Editors Will you allow me through
your excellent paper to express the great graft
fication I felt in common with many Of my
neighbors in this vicinity, in listening to lee
ture on the greatest wonder of thes wonderful age
the Magnetic Telegraph-deliyeredi in the hall
of our High School on Saturday the 7th inst,
by Prof. Campbell of Washington College. 1t
seems to me that il the citizens of Staunton
knew how perfectly ineligible Prof Campbell
makes the operation of this instrument even to
those previously unacquainted with the science of
magnetism, it would not be long before he
would be solicited to repeat his lecture in that
place. AefG nf ie
He first illustrated to the audience by numer-
Gus experiments in Electro Magnetism, the prin-
ciples upon which the Telegraph is constructed.
These experiments performed by means of pow.
erful magnets of various descriptions, and OF
Groves Galvanic Battery, would have been
highly interesting Independent Of their applica-
ton to the Telegraph. He then exhibited the tel
egraph itself, put up in working order, and set in
motion with all its parts distinctly visible and ex-
planned the modeof transmitting intelligence ac-
tual experiment. The very instant that the key
was touched on oneside of the hail. completing the
electric circuit through wires fastened round the
room. the sound of the Telegraph communica-
ting the intelligence, was heard on the Other
side Bv means of second Telegraph with
wires attached, it was clearly shown also, how
communications are sent to intermediate and
principal stations at the same instant.
After attending Prof Campbells lecture, it is
no longer necessary to ask how the letters get
round the posts, or how they are protected in

The Road to California.

The resolution adopted by the Cincinnati Con-
vention, in favor of road to the Pacific, has
driven some of our strait-laced, strict construc-
ton Democrats to variety of explanations and
apologies 1t is not to be Railroad, they say,
but only wagon track-clearing away the
growth, laying down few causeways, grading
a hill and hollow here and there, &C. The ex-
pense, we are told, will be a mere bagatelle,and
no one questions the constitutional right of the
Government to open such a road for military
purposes.
Such are the arguments now urged in behalf,
or excuse, of this project by those who have
heretofore stouty denied the constitutionality of
internal improvements by the General Govern
ment. How ridiculousl To plain man Rail
road would seem to be much more useful s'for
military purposes" than wagon track, only re-
curing some additional ''causeways," and rath-
err more grading here and there" If the Gov
eminent, moreover, may open q military road to
California, why mry it not open one anywhere
else in the country2 As to the cost, if Congress
can appropriate dollar-"a mere bagatelle"-
for the purpose, it undoubtedly can appropriate
millions. The constitutional difficulty is not af-
fected by the greater or less amount oflabor and
money required. But Democracy is in guam
Diary, and seeks to get out of it in plausible
way. California and the West insist upon hav-
ing this road, they must be pacitied-and
hence we have the shallow pretence set up that
it is to be military road, costing "a mere bag
atele," and requiring only few causeways and
a little grading here and there. Nor can the
constitutional obstacle be surmounted by plead
ing the great necessity of the road. What the
Constitution does not authorize at all, cannot be
justified on any ground whatever Far better
or at least more candid-for these Platform
makers to acknowledge that the old Wing doc
trine touching the matter is right and not stulti-
fly the people by striving to maintain their own
consistency.

Mob Law at San Francisco.

We are indebted to an unknown friend in Cal
ifornia for several copies Of the San Francisco
Herald, giving full particulars of the terrible ex-
element in that city, an account of which is
published elsewhere in this paper. After the
first outbreak the Sheriff called meeting of
citizens to adopt measures for maintaining law
and order. Only fifty -four expressed themselves
willing to aid the Sheriff in the discharge of his
duties. Among the number we observe the
name of Jos. G. Baldwin, formerly of this place.
