Grain Crop in Europe.

The Boston Journal thus epitomizes the
information respecting the European grain
crop Of 1868, as derived from latest foreign
papers:
"In the countries bordering upon the Med.
iterranean the crop is variously reported
but upon the whole it may be regarded as
equal to, il not exceeding an average. Blu,
Egypt will furnish q full average. Spain
and Portugal will not require any supplies
from other countries. In Belgium and Hol.
land there is an average crop; while in the
Baltic regions, including Northern Germany
and Western Russia. the yield is below an
average, although high prices may induce
exports TO some extent. in France there is
fair crop of wheat and rye, oats being In.
ferior. The cereal crop OF England exceeds
the average, and portion of the extraordi
nary wheat yield Of last year still remains
in the hands Of farmers to be added to thiG
years harvest. Other breads tuifs are some.
what under the average. In Ireland al
kinds of produce are abundant, compared
with recent years. The wheat crop Of Scot
land ID excellent, other crops being medium
and possibly below. On the whole, the
United Kingdoh will this yes. require small.
or imports OF grain than in ordinary seasons.
The supplying power Of Central Russia i
not yet determined"

Horrible Murder ia TrUm built

We are compe lied TO record one of the
most fearful tragedies ever enacted in this
county, being the murder of an aged father
by an insane daughter. The'deed W us com.

murdered man is Robert Hamilton. who
lived in the township of Johnston. The

veral years been insane, and was until about
q year since, under treatment at the asylum
in Newburgh. Since her return home, she
has evinced a tractab!e disposition, until a
month or two past, when she became trou-
blesome and unruly. Her father was about
seventy years OF age and was u cripple from
rheumatism and her mother ia about sixty.
The daughter is about twenty-five years of
age. At q late hour on Sunday night she
came down stairs, and inquired for the can.
die. Her mother informed her where twas
when she took it. and after lighting it, went
to corner and got an axe, used for splitting
kindings in the morning. Approaching the
bed she stated to her parents that they were
bad people and she was going to kill them
She then struck her father with the axe, In.
ficting murderous blow on the skull, then
struck him on the face, severing the jaw
other blows were inflicted upon the face,
breast and body. The aged mother Crap

The heaviest robbery ever perpetra,ed in
Greene county, waa committed At Cedarvillo
last week. sometime between Tuesday and
Saturday niehts--the precise time not being
known. From Mr.. J. G. Nisbett we have
obtained the following particulars
Mr.. Nisbeit has been Township and Cor.
poration Treasurer Of Cedarville for a mum.
Der of years, and since the new sub treasury
law was passed, has kept the funds In and
about his store room, which was but little
used, as he was winding up business a.
merchant For some time he kept the ape.
Gle deposited 10 the cellar, but not feeling
secure removed ii 10 the room above, and put
il in box which he placed In q nail keg
under the counter, covered with old papers,
&C., no one but Mr.. N. being awareof its
whereabouts. On Tuesday he examined the
| money and found all safe. Not having oc'
casion to look at il again, several days pass
cd, until on Saturday evening, one Of his
children discovered that the door ofa build
ing attached to the back of his store was
open. On examinations, Mr.. N. discovered
that the back door of the store room had been
bored through, hook that 1t fastened raised,
and the door opened. A further examina.
ton showed that the room had becn thor.
oughly ransacked, and the township funds.
amounting to 1896 6s In gold taken. The
robbers also, in their search, broke open .
desk, and took theretrom small box, con.
tanning about $40 In silver and $l5 in pa.
per money, together with pocket book In
in which were all Of Mr.. Ms notes taken
in settling up his mercantile business. The
front door was found unlocked, the robbers
having made their exit that way. One or
two persons have been suspicionej, but az
yet no very definite clue has been found

The Trade In Coolies.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Courier and Enquirer, in recent letter
gives some valuable information in regard
to the rise, progress and success OF the trade
in Coolies. The follow ing paragraph viii!
be read with interest
s.Much attention has been lately given to
the great increase OF the Asiatic Slave Trade
which promises TO supercede that from the
coast of Africa. The Coolies shipped to
the West Indies, Australia, and the coun.
tries of South America, within the last guar.
ter of n century, have, perhaps, equalled in
number those shipped from Africa during
the first twenty-five years after the opening
of that emigration under the auspices Of Las
Casas, from motives of humanity. The
Coolies came at first chiefly from British ln-
die, but have lately been obtained in large
numbers from China, for believe laborers
transported from any part Asia TO this hem
isphere pass under the same general desig'
nation. The expense OF shipping Coolies to
the West Indies, is now from one hundred
to one hundred fifty dollars per head. They
are far less robust than negro, they are
less tractoble and obedient, though not less
submissive. They are imported as appren-
tices or indentured laborers-is condition
which differs in slavery only in name, since
after the apprenticeship expires, they can
not return to their native country, but must
work on under the same system OF subordi-
nation, or must then die of starvation. The
Coolies who find their way to California are
of superior class, and manage to maintain
nominal and isolated independence among
the superior race. But they are not admit.
ted to the rights of citizenship, and the me.
thod of treating them appears to be sub
iect which greatly embarrasses the politi.
clans of the State.
"Since the abolition of slavery in Jamai-
ca, the British Government has endeuvored
at very great expense to supply the want Of
enforced labor by importations Of Coolies.
The experiment has not succeeded well.-
Instead of laborers, the poor immigrants be.
come invalds, and then beggars, disliked
and despised by the colored population.
"lhe same project has been suggested
and seems likely to be carried into effect
as means of supplanting and extinguishing
the African slave trade. There is much
greater danger of the Asiati6calion than oil
the Africanzation of Cuba in the sense in
which our alarmists use the latter term
The British government has promised its
effective assistance in the execution of the
plan, and the only question remaining to be
solved is that OF expense. African labor
will be dispensed with as fast as Coolies can
be imported to supply its place.
"The traders in Coolies, however, have
formidable rivals. Santa Ann, has con.
tract for supplying the government of Cubs
with ten thousand Yucatanese Indians, to be
sold to the planters, but the source of the
supply is far too meogre to give the design
much importance. 1t would be far easier
and less expensive to furnish negro slaves
from our Southern States, to the extent oil
Cuban demand" ..

heir interview was published by you. The
second postponement was more necessary
than the frat, for money had become more
scarce in the Territory, the rates OF interest
had gone up to Eve and ten per cent per
month, and there was a good deal Of sick
ness throughout the whole country. BY ad'
herring to the second order for the sales to
take place in November, the settler would
be placed at the mercy Of the money lender
when to postpone it the settler would have
another year within which to obtain the
such terms on her citizens, and hence the
second postponement Of the land sales until
July next. It was a measure demanded by
the condition of affairs here, and Of which
have heard no one complain, except such

GForty.nine Of the camels belonging to
the United States are now at Camp Verde,
sixty miles from San Antonio. Only one
Of those imported has died, while ten have
been added by birth. These young Ameri-
can born camels thrive we'll, and promise to
grow up equal in all respects to those i'm

al lately made BY Captain Beale in his ex.

some officers of the army who doubt wheth.

camels. This, however, might be expected
There are always persons opposed to al

hope, however, that experiments in their

they will pass into the hands Of private own
