THE WHEAT CROP.

The following reflections upon the Wheat
crop and the policy the producers ought to
pursue, are from the New York Observer, one
Of the most pruden. and reliable papers in the
country. Our agricultural friends can ponder
them, and then sell or hold on as TO them
may seem best. The Observer says:
We have hefetofore shown that the crop
OF breadstnffs throughout this country is
above the usual average. but IL rtinaiLs an
interesting question how TAR this production
will find II ready market. If there is no ex.
port demand, and the whole trbp is let upon
"ur hands tor hottie CONSUMPTION, it in easy
to see that there must be n general break
down in prices; but il there is an opening
abroad for part of the production, such d.
yefaion will littlt the decline, and afford
great relief TO producers. France will need
hut little outside he Up the current year, the
deficit for the last 1--WE years being chiefly oW-
ing to n deficient harvest. Still, We do not
believe that France will bc entirely srlfsus-
tanning, the old stock bring entirely exhaust
ed, and the wants Of the people having large
" increased. Last year She took nearly 25,-
0oO,i 90 bushels Of grain f. bm other countries,
nj II rate comparatively high, aud the rTiifinr
els. At any rate, size cannot becuine an ex-
porter To Great Britain, a. she has been in
former years. Spain, " hirh has been rlasscd
among the exporters OF brcadstuiis, lost d
large portion of her crop last year, .and vas u
buyer from us. This year she viii gIuw
nearly or quite enough for her own wants,
but owing to the drainage Of old stock vii
have nothing 10 spare. Great Britain will
| hat "A i'm h1r Int eli
hope Ia Obtain complete supply from her
own fields, and she must look To us ior part
-! her food. We have shown that France
and Spain cannot aid her, and We must no
successful competitors with the st OF Eu-
| rope IN this trade. The sources OF supply in
the Baltic are again partially cut off this year,
while the Mediterranean aud Black Seas can.
not recover their position for several years To
come. No reliance tor help can be placed
upon Grrmanv,as the crop of rye Throughout
Northern Europe is much III ured, and orders
have already been sent out for the purchase
1T this grain for German ports. To sum up
the whole IN tier our cXpor 10 France will
be- very small; T." Spain will nearly cease: to
Germany he confined t. rye and low priced
wheat To England he some hat reduced; to
the West indies South America and other
countries, be- increased. The whole must be-
made at prices considerably below the average
ri the past few wears. II farmers take this
hint bring forward their crops m good con-
dition, and be- wiling TO sell it ms ii is ready
for delivery al the current market rates, they
Will so reduce the supply in stock, that fair
rates may he maintained throughout the venr.
II, on the contrary, they keep the grin back,
and hold out for higher rates, until the ex-
p"r, demand has been supplied elsewhere,
they will see their error WHEN too late, and
hav" broken down market for all the rest
vi the year.

GERRIfr SMIrn's ExrERlEsoE WITH Free NE.

GERRITr SMirns EXPERIENCE WITH FREE NE.
onoEs.-A New York cor, espondent OF the
Charleston Courier says:
Gerrilt Smith. a notorious Abolitionist and
| believe genuine phiIanthropst, in his
way has been letting ouL son,e curious facts
as to the free negroes Of the North. Mr..
SIni, h being man Of large means, gave
lands J., ing in tire interior Of tins State to
three thunsand negroes upon which they
were TO live aud show the world their capaei-
~ kT usefulness aud independence. The
donor, in letter just published confesses
with chagrin that his expectations we're not
fully rea ize.l. lie continues In this strain |:
"Of the three thousand colored men TO
whom gave land. probably less than fifty
have taken aid continue To hold Possession
OF their grants What 10 worse, half Of lhe
three Thousand. as l Judge, have either sold
their land, or been so careless as to allow il
to be sold for taxes"

OvERRUN.-0nr contemporary Of the Mnr-
freesboro' Telegraph notifies his delinquent
Subscribers that they must pay up, and says
that in order To have time to wait upon them
m they call, he will omi, the publication of
his piper one week. In view of the proba-
bie rush, our contemporary had better employ
two or three extra clerks, otherwise some of
the crowd may have to z" AWAY unuccommo-
dated, and consequently mad.

JAMES B. CLAY.-1he following pointed
rrbuke of the degenerate son of an ilIuslri-
Gus sire" is copied from the Lynchburg Vr-
ginian of the 18th instant:
The telegraph iniimates that this notorious
individual has recently been rlrrled TO n seat
IN Congress from his fathers old District, and
we know not which most Ia eXecralp; the
aposiacy and almost parricde of Clay, or the
uniailhfulness OF the District that once enjoy
ed II reflected glory from its association with
one of the brightest spirits OF his aye. ii did
not ut the last Presidential election east its
vote for the drfamer of Henry Clay; i, was
not then quite ready tor that but it has at last
attained an unpnviahle distinction, and, to use
n stronger term, gained m almost prc-rln,-
hence of iniamy by sustaining the b. irayer
of his fathers good name. 1t was said that
an indignant old English orator who WAS
Disguised al the treaty between Frnrce and
England, nj the peace Of Anie's. declared in
the House of comm"ns, tn it King William
could knnw the terms OF tina. treaty, he would
turn IL his coffin.
And what, can we Imagine, would he the
feelings Of Henry Clay, were he living nd in
that pusiiinn which he gruced longer than any
who had preceded OF have GONE after him, NJ
he should descend from the Speakers cll,ir
to administer the oath of office /" II grncrIess
son |Ao had denied the faith of his father
had joined those VIII" cast the viIest aspcr-
si"ns upon him through his whole life, and
was firm supporter of the chief intrgurr
who had conspired 10 dcie t the noble aspl-
rations ct n life time that had been devoted To
the public veal. How hnmiIiatrd md de-
graded Clay mast feel in the loving embracr
of his new found allies and his honorrd faith
rr's hereditary foes! Shade of the mighty !
Bat no more. We could not envy Clay his
success, and wouldn't represent his District
for the world.

tbs LATE ELEcrlos.-We are not yet
able to give our readers the majorities by
which the Democracy have carried the Gov.
ernor and the Legislature. Our American
exchanges from Middle Tennessee seem to
be obllvious of the fact that an election has
recently occurred, OF are waiting FOR the Cen
trail Committee to report and the Union and
American only reaches as at occasional and
dsliberate periods. So that beyond our own
immediate session we have no official figures.
Presuming that details would be uninterest.

general summing up.

BUCHANAN AND WAtKER.-The Columbus
Enquirer says, the great consideration with
which Mr.. Buchanan is treated aud the abuse
which is visited upon Mr.. Walker for the self
same conduct, by Southern Democrats, re-
minds us of m old African, whose child was
killed BY lightning in his arms, while he re-
manned unhur.. In Juror Of passion and
desperation the old fellow rushed out Of his
cabin, barred his bosom to the storm and px-
claimed 10 the lightning "you think you do
great tingin killing piccinnini, try your hand
on de old gum" These Democrats thiuk
they are doing up the thing bropn, by play
ing Jupiter, and hurting thunder bolts at
Walker, but they are scarce, in trying to
knock off even the bark from the cold gum"

THE NEXT HOUSE OF RI PREsENTATltFs-
Politicians are already 'p"sting the ho"ks" in
order to ascertain the division of parties In
the next House of Representatives. Elections
have now been held in all the Stat.s with the
exception of Maryland, Georgia, Mississippi
aud Louisiana. The Washington Union has
n calculation, which gives tn" ease thus: De-
mocra,s 10; Republicans 81; Amerc ms s.;
vacancies 2. Surprising no charges occur in
the remaining four States, it will stand: De-
mocrais, l25; Republicans, 81; Americans, l6;
Vacancies, 2. This, however, gives North
Carolina seven Democratic Congressman, and
only one Amprican-a matter which is yet
undecided. The Union is confident of II De.
nocratic ma GRITTY of sixteen in the next House,
and thinks there is probability Of lis increase
to eighteen.
