The Crops and Fruit Culture i'm
Ohio,

VICINITY OF DAYTON, O., June Is, 80.
DEAR JOURNAL Your readers, many of
whom formerly resided in this region, will no
doubt be interested to know something
concerning the prospect of the crops in Ohio.
Ny opportunities for observation have not
been very extensive, but from inquiry learn
that there is promise of more than an average
yield. The barley harvest has already COM
menced. Some wheat will be cut next week.
Corn was seriously injured by the frost of
the 9Th inst, which appears to have been
generally disastrous throughout the country.
Indeed, in some localities, it is said to have
injured the wheat and fruit also. Beans,
sweet potato plants, &C., were nearly all
killed. Corn will be backward in this region,
and unless the autumn is unusually favora-
bic the yield will be extremely light.
Apples and peaches also promise poor
weld. There will not be more than one-tenth
of an apple crop. Peach trees largo enough
to bear are scarce, and the curculio is making
sad havoc among them. Pears appear to be
doing well. The smaller fruits-strawber-
ries, cherries, raspberries, currants, &C.
plenteous, though the season for the two first
named is now past.
! Great attention is paid to fruit raising in

AN ENTANGLlNG ALLIANcE."-Mrs. Mar
garet L. Eaton, widow of General Jackson's
Secretary of War, was married in Washing
ton City few days since to an Italian dane
ing master called Sr Antonio Bukingnani.
The bride is over 60, the bridegroom %.
The States says:
The lady will be recollected by those who
frequented Washington during I" the sea-
sons " in the course of the Presidency of
General jackson as the brilliant wife of his
Secretary of War. Gen. John H. Eaton, Ito
whom, She then the widow of the late Pur-
ser Timberlake-was united, if we remember
correctly, in 1929 or lS3O,) in whose behalf
the "old iron will " separated from his first
cabinet, on the occasion of social difficulties
in their families.

History OF JACK FRusr-The Ravenna
Dem0cr at says:
On the night Of the 4th of June, 1917, a
frost occurred which destroyed the frui. and
seriously damaged every description of grow
ing crols.
On the 10th Of May, 1882, there was a
similar frost. which destroyed the fruit, cut
down the wheat crop, &c. Iu that year,
the wheat grow rs Of Stark county moved
tl,eir wheat fields aud cured the straw for
fodder after which the wheat started up
again aud produced fair crop.
On the Goth Of May, ls45, there was a
heavy frost iu this region, which made a
similar havoc with crops and fruits, s'nce
which there has been nothing like it. till
now.
1t would seem from the above record that
this frost. blight occurs at regular intervals
on an average, once in fifteen years.

this region. Almost as much land is planted
in nurseries and orchards as in grain One
man, N. Dinner, Esq, has recently put out
on 55 acres of land near Dayton the follow
ing: 1000 apple trees, 1000 pear trees,
1000 peach trees, 1000 cherry trees, 800
ounce trees, 100 Siberian crab trees, 5000
Lawton blackbcrry|bushes, 1000 raspberry
bushes, 5000 gooseberry bushes, 1000 cur
rant bushes. and two acres in strawberry
plants. Rather an extensive orchard and
horticultural garden!
When will any of the fruit rasers of Iowa
go into it on such scale? doubt not Iowa
is as good as Ohio for raising most kinds of
fruit. Apples have not done as well here for
several years past as in Iowa. Let our farm
ers turn their attention more to fruit raising,
and they will add vastly to the comforts and
attractions of our new and nourishing State.

EMIGRATION TO CAMFoRSIA. - The San
Francisco correspondent of the New York
Independent writes: There is now very
large immigration to this State, increased
probably, by the low fare, in consequence Of
competition among the steamers. Nineteen
hundred persons came on the last steamer
from Panama, and probably eight hundred
or more will arrive to-day on the opposition
steamer. But multitudes are here now out
of employment. Let no one come here seek
ing business. The opportunities for employ
ment are far better in the Atlantic and West
ern States"

rHE AMERICANS IN CiNcINNATI.-The Gin
cinnati Americans who were displeased with
the action of the Republican State Convcn-
ton, or Opposition Convention, as it was
called previous to its assembling, held
meeting on the evening of the 9th, which was
addressed by Lew. Campbell, Scott Harrison
and others. Campbell counseled moderatio
and conciliation. although he asserted that
the Americans were treated in an ungentle-
manly manner Mt the State Convention. Har-
risOn and the rest advocated the calling of an
American State Convention and the nomins-
ton of full State ticket, and resolutions to
that effect were adopted by the meeting; but
the Gazette says that the demonstration was
much less marked and influential than had
been anticipated by the managers, and that
the movement is regarded as amounting to
nothing, from which we infer that no State
Convention is kelly to be called.

FRENCH AND AUSTRIAN SOLDIERS. The
Boston Courier thus compares the soldiers of
France and Austria respectively:
"The Austrian army is splendid military
machine beyond all question; but it is ma
chine only. The men who compose it are
physically the finest looking creatures on this
earth 10 the eye nothing can be more bril-
liant or striking than an Austrian army
compared with it, French army equally
numerous appears quite Insignificant. But it
has no sOuL-none of that spirit which is to
an army what the mind is t" the individual
man, while French army is exactly the
reverse of this. "No army in the world, F."
says Weber, German writer, ''has better
built, more robust, more valiant and better
conditioned men than the Austrians. What
bodies, set against the French or Prussians
And yet they were obliged to knock under
to both, for not the body but the soul strikes
the blow in which lies the victory. They
read Greek in the Austrian universities, |
believe, and they might have learnt from
Plato that the soul only is the man, the body
mere instrument"

The Next PHI FOR NORTHERN DEMOCRACY.
Our democratic brethren Of the free States
s,ndergo a treatment from their southern
brethren about as agreeable as the regular
dispensation Of birthstone and trcacle at Do
theboy's Hall. Here is the dose for which
they are now training their stomachs. 1t is
from the Richmond Enquirer.
"From every quarter Of the South we are
informed that this question of protection of
slavery in the territories will be made an is
sue before the Charleston Convention as an
article in the platform Of the party. The de-
NAL or evasion of it wiliinvolve the party in
hopeless defeat at the South. The Conven-
ton will, in our opinion, meet the issue, and,
upon the Dreo Scott decision, affirm the duty
Of Congress to protect rights judicially sck-
nowledged."

TIE OPPOSITION IN THE NEXT HoUsE.-The
Baltimore Patriot of June llth, thus reckons
up the strength of the Opposition in the next
House of Representatives.:
"Therc are now elected at the North one
hundred and eleven Opposition members, be-
sides the eight tanti-Lecomptonitesn nominated
and elected by the Opposition, and withous
counting the six Douglas Democrats. The
Opposition from the South in the last House
numbered fourteen. 1t has already gaine+s
one in Virginia, and surely the defeat of Falk-
ner is an omen Of great Significance in the
South. Mr. Eustis' detection has only hurt
himself, for New Orleans gave 1000 Ameri-
can majority week ago. We expect to gain,
at least, certainly two in Tennessee, three in
Kentucky, two in North Carolina, and two in
Maryland. We expect other gains; but We
note only what We regard as certain. These
results will give us at least twenty-four Op-'
position members from the South

RAILROAD CELEBRATION.-The celebration
of the completion of the Railroad to Cedar
Rapids came off on the 18th inst Hon. A.
o. Patterson, of this city, was there, and
states that four cars filled with passengers
came from Chicago, consisting mostly of the
business men of that city. The cars arrived
at Cedar Rapids about r. NJ, amidst the
firing of cannon and the shouts of thousands
of voices. After the reception speech by
Judge Greene, a procession was formed, and
they marched to the grove on the hill above
the city, where there was prepared food
enough to satisfy double the number of all
present. After the dinner, the afternoon was
spent in listening to the speeches in response
to the toasts. Bross, of the Chicago Press
and Tribune, olomon Sturgiss, and Mr.
Turner, President of the Road, were among
the speakers present Mr. Kirkwood, also, of
Iowa City, addressed the people. The whole
affair passed off in fine style, and every one
was well satisfied. The number present on
the occasion was computed to be from 1000
to 5000 people. The Railroad is good one,
and passes through one of the best agricul-
tural regions in Iowa.
The citizens along the line of road and at
Cedar Rapids express the hope that it will
not be long before they can have connec-
ton with Muscatine. They say they have
always done the majority of their business
here, and that, too, in a very satisfactory
way, and they arc 10th to form new business
connections at the sacrifice of the old ones,
which has so long proved mutually satisfac-
tory and advantageous.
These facts considered together with the
subject of the enthusiastic demonstration
noticed above, should stimulate our citizens
to renewed efforts in behalf of the speedy
completion of our branch of the Upton road.
1t is now our place to open the way and ex
tend the right hand Of welcome and good-fcl-
lowship to our complimentary neighbors up
the country.
