MIR EDIrOR-De0r Sir: | notice in the
SmyrRG TmeS, some editorial remarks e.atlvc
to the prospects OF the present wheat crop in
your vicinty,-trum which learn that the fly
is elfecting the crop seriously. And find TO
my surprise, that many crops IN tins section are
also being seriously effected. bad hoped and
believed that the favorable season would push
the crop forward with such vigorous growth,
that the fly could moi rrtard 1t or effect 1t ma
teriallY; but begin to fear that many crops in
this county will be much shortened, and per-
haps some failures. have found, upon eXaml-
nation, an unusually large number of the young
insects preying upon the plant. In some in
stances, as many as seven encased around Il
single straw. The consequence is, that the
straw shrinks at that place aud falls by Its own
weight
The ravages of this pest is becoming to be a
serious matter, and it behOovrs farmers in gen.
eral to lend helping hand towards discover
ing, if possible, remedy-elther IN the time
o. seeding or otherwise.
An article appeared in the peninsular NcrS,
last fall, accompanied by some editorial remark
requesting farmers TO make note of the time
ifat each put the wheat in the ground, and re-
port TO the newspaper in their vicinity.
| would here propose TO change the PROPOSE
liOHi dHu III lICu vi IcpOiNlu9 W tHc HtNSpd-
papers. would recommend general meeting Of
the farmers, to be held in Dover, on the first
Tuesday IN August; and let those that cannot
possibly attend, send written statement Of the
seeding of their crop, and results, whether ia
vorabe or otherwise. a day may be pleasant
ly and prottably spent IN discussing the best
time for seeding.-ihe best mode of applying
manures,-and things in general appertaining
10 agriculture.
remarked, i'll a former communication, that
| had not known crop seriously effected with
fly, that was sowed between the 9th and 18Th
of October. A writer from New Castle said
he had never known crop, sOwed at that time,
that was not effected, lie may be right for
New Castle, and may be right for Kent at

"I Am Lonesome.

81 Am Lonesome"
The only words uttered by woman, sup
posed to be insane, when taken to the Sta
ton House.-Newspaper Paragraph.
Oh, what world of misery
Lay hidden in those words;
Oh what a weight to press upon
The spirits shattered chords
What wrung that pity-moving cry
From that poor womans lips
What was the blacken'd cloud, that proved
That youthful lifes eclipse?
They only thought that she was crazed
And placed the weary one
In safety under lock and kew.
And thought their work was done.
All have seen a woman's eye
Bereft of reasons light,
And she too uttered that wild cry
Of bitterness and blight.
These ears, this heart, can ne'er forget
That piercing spirit tone,
No one to love me, none to care,
I'm weary and aloneP
ana so she died, and so they said
Twas quick consump mption's doom
That laid her, in her woman's prime,
Cold N the voiceless tomb
But kew better--well knew
She died for want of Love
And wailing sighs that few could hear,
Went up to God above.
How many and many womans heart
Has wasted Ifs glad hours
Has felt their glorious sheen grow dim,
Like summers tinted flowers
And it is deemed little thing,
,aAn every day affair.
But in the day of dread account,
Who, who the weight will bearl
Then all who watched through weary years,
And died by inches here,
Shall know and bless the reason why
Their earth-life was so drearl
