Shortly after they followed her ;

The Weather aud Crops West.

There is little ground for the alarm
felt in many On 'rters in regard to
the effects OF the continued uniavor-
able weather upon the growing crop
Of corn. Sevcnty-tlve days of warm
sun, with or without occasional
showers, will insure an average yield
OF that great staple in half.a-dozen
of the Western States; and though
there Is much uneasiness manifested
inst now, we see no reason to believe
that the prospect is hopeless or even
discouraging. 1t is true that mnch
OF the seed put in the ground has
rotted, and must be planted again;
that the corn far South which has
strn .gled to tho surface in spite OF
the rains, is shrivcled, yellow and
thin in the hill; but it is not too late
to rcplant, and a warm sun will re-
pair all mischief thus far demo-
Tha seasons in the past which have
been wet in the Spring-we instance
1874 and lS54-did not fail to yield
good average harvest. T.c., is
no reason to believe that 1853 will
disapoint the Industrious tillers of
the soil. The clouds, the rain, the
wind, the yellow corn, and kindred
topics may furnish themes upon
which the bulls and bears of the corn
market can eloqncntly expatiate, but
they fortunately do not control the
elements. [Chicqgo Tribune. n.
