LA CHRISTIE.

Dates the 10th Of July have been received in this
city (says the Baltimore SUM from LII. Col f. John
ston commanding the expedition 10 run the southern
boundary Of Kansas The command had proceeded over

the northern portion of Texas Buffalo found in
great abundance. The whole command were enjoying
perfect health.
Planters in upper Georgia and in Tennessee have been
interrupted in thrashng their wheat in consequence
of the continued rains of the past ten days two weeks
In much wheat will be injured by the rains
and the spoutng Of the seed Thrashing and cleaning
wheat will have to be suspended until the weather be-
comes more favorable.
We learn from the Macon Citizen of Saturday that rain
fell in torrents in that city and neighborhood Friday
last We understand that the rain storm extended far
as Montgomery, doing much damage to the railroads,
bridges mills well houses fences and other prop
erty This storm will doubtless prove very destructive
to the growing crops.
The Buffalo Express says that gentleman in that city
has just received letter from Farport Ohio in which
the writer says 'The crops looked better Hay
is selling at 81 per ton butter at IL cents potatoes at
20 cents cheese at cents"
The Louisville Courier states that ex President Pierce
has accepted the invitation of the committee and writes
that he will certainly be there TO attend the United States
Agricultural Exhibition on the LIST of September next.

consented to deliver address at the opening of the next

chased 200 bushels of wheat at 95 cents per buse to

REPUBLICAN, GAINS IN CALIFORNIA.
MCGEE County.


MCGEE county is the most southern Of
the counties of Kanzas. 1t is one of the
nineteen disfranchised countless" and bor-
ders on Missouri. Its white inhabitants are
not citizens of the Territory, as they are
settled on lands owned by the Indians. The
county boundaries do not encompass an
acre of pre-emptible land, and as conse-
quenee there is not legal voter within its
limits. But notwithstanding these things
the patriotic" citizens return 1909 votes as
having been east at the late election, all bu
about dozen for the pro-slayery ticket. L
is not yet known whether this vote viii b.
received by the Secretary. But if it is, i
viii overcome the Free State vote of th,
district and elect three pro-slavery Repre-
sentatives.
