the farmers 10 that vicinity are in better

will turn out decidedly better than was
anticipated. a few days ago, and the corn
is also improving rapidly.
The CRors.-The Henderson Re-

II is owing principally to wet weather
and insects.
The wheat crop promises tolerable
yield IL the season should prove avora-

The citizens of Logansport are
making an effort to construct projected
railroad from that place TO Peoria. A
private stock subscription Of $500, 900,

already been subscribed, will guarantee a
loan of 81, 600, 900 to purchase the iron

of from six to twelve inches, during
which time the wheat has maturet, and
in the opinion Of good farmers, who have

The LEGISLATURE by the last sp
poetionmcnt bill, the Counties of Posey
and vanderburgh are entitled to three
representatives in the Legislature; each
county elects one member for itself, and
the third is TO be chosen by the two
counties jointly, and the member thus
elected is elegantly denomina'ed "the
fost.'
The numerous highly important meas
ures TO be settled by tine next Legisla
laiure, demand that the best talen. Of
the State should be secured in the Sc
section of its members; the subjects to
be presented for its consideration and

fairs, experience, and ssgsciiy, to,settle

gsnizsd and restored. Our su'y laws
on which the aux and refux Of capital,
to and from the State, and the employ
ment Of its industry aud the develope
ment of its resources in an essential
manner depend, are to be discussed anu
revised. Enactments regulating volun-
tary assignments, under which so many
frauds have recently been witnessed. are
imreratively required. To relieve the
State from the difficulties, which the en-
tire failure Of State revenue for two
years has involved her, will be difficult
measure. A State debt canno, be Great.

by taxing the people for expenses o
