Tho Crops in Virginia.

We have letter from an intelligent far
mer residing in the Northern Neck of NIr-
ginia, Westmoreland county who after ex-
aiming the growing crops IN that section,
says
The heavy dashing rains seem to have
arrested the rust, by washing it from the
blade to which it was confined, and now it
seems pretty well dried up without having
done any damage to the grain Of the wheat
never SAW the head larger or seeming to fill
better than now, and without further accl-
dent both the yield and the quality will be
good The ravages of the fly and the .l"lnt
worm have been much more extended than
expected, in many places cutting the crop
short fully one half. This, however, is not
general, as many localities have escayed al
together My opinion, is, and think it is
the general one, that there will be full
average crop in this section Some have al
ready cut their wheat and Others are now cut
ting, though the harvest will not begin gen
orally till next week The corn crop is back
ward, owing to the cold hut it is too soon to
cry out about that"
The fredericksburg Herald says
Harvesting will be very generally COM
menced i'm this and the surrounding counties
on Monday next, (to-day.) Many have been
cutting the past week, but next week will be
the one pregnant with hope to the entire
farming interest in this quarter of the State.
May the weather be propitious"'

Eight about Sitting in PeWs.

Among some Of the female member. oi II
Church IN Erie Street, there exists any
thing but sistrrly love and benevolent feel
ngs. On Sunday last one Mrs A!lcorn
proceeded to church, and from accident or
design found herself i'll the pew Of Mr.. Oscar
Welsh. Nothing but black and omincus looks
probably passed between the occupants OF the
pew at the time, but since then Mr.. Welsh
waited on Mrs. Allcorn, and stated that Mrs.
W. would in future prefer the room OF Mrs.
A. in the family pew to her company there.
Mr.. w went on to give the reasons therefor,
viz that Mrs. W. thought Mrs. a. no honor
to the pew, and in fact was mean woman
Hereupon Mrs A. minated that such re-
marks did not breathe u Christian spirit, and
that if Mrs W. thought so hard of her ''sls-
tern" III the Church, then she herself was II
mean woman. The gallant Oscars spirit
was aroused, and he declared he would slap
her face if she said so again. MIS-. As
dander was up, and she did say 50 again
there now, Oscar the valiant. drew back and
took Mrs. A. wipe" across her mug IN
a very unchurchmanlike manner necessltat-
ing the application Of a raw beef poultlce to
to the abused female countenance. futher-
more Mrs A testitics that Oscar then and
there declared his ability to ''wallop any W.
man in the State Of Ohio"
Judge Lawrence after hearing all the par
ties in the case came to the conclusion that
Mr. ". ought To be fined at least twenty
five dollars, and he gave. judgment according

A CLAIR Grit Fire Eater.

Mr. j. l.. Pugh has announced himself a.
an independent don t-care-a-corper for mo-
body candidate for Congress in the Second
district of Alabama. He has raised his
standard which he says, is covered all over
for the sake Of the South" and planted it
upon the following PLATFORM
|. That the people of the South shall
march to the ballot box or to the field. =.
That Southern safety does not lie in nation
al organizations. 3. That national party
cannot preserve State rights, because Its cOn-
tinuance IN power depends upon the plea
sure of the majority t. That the Northern
and Southern portions of this Union have
ceased to occupy the relations OF co-e4nal
sovereign States. ). That State sovereign
ty reserved rights, limitations upon federal
power, are completely obliterated at the
North =. That all power is centralized in
Congress- and exercised to drain, plumber
harrass and Cypress the South. l. Declares
eternal hostility to any man Or party who
sanctions another compromise. 5. That
there ought to be but one party IN the South,
and whenever a Black Republican is elected
President of the United States, that party
should be pledged Enthusiastically to dissolu-
ton of the Union.
These are the strong planks in the plat
form of MIR. Pugh, and he Furthermore de-
clares that if Alabama remains in the
Union after the election Of Black Republi-
can President, he will join in raising II regi-
ment to light the torch of revolution in the
Capitol at Washington"

Steam on the Ohio Canal.

Yesterday morning, the steam canal boat
Enterprise, planned, built, and commanded
by Capt Deuel. arrived at this port, from
Akron, where she was built. This project OF
Capt Deuel's has excited much interest
the first attempt to navigate Ohio canals 10y
steam This boat will carry about sixty
tons, being Of the ordinary canal-b"at SIZE
She brought in Il small cargo oi sarthenware
As to speed, the run from Akron to this
place would have been made III three hours
had she been more heavily loaded. Five
miles per hour the Captain thinks about the
right speed to be run The engine is Of
about eight horse power. 1t has seven
inch cylinder with twelve inch stroke. The
wheels are on the propeller pattern. The
expense of propelling the boat by steam Is
calculated at one-tourth that Of horses The
engine occupies about as much room az the
stables for horses on the ordinary hoats.-
The form of the wheels and the manner IN
which they IRE attached to the boat prevent
enough wash to injure the banks These
wheels are also made sharp so as to cut Oft
the grass, thereby preventing it from clog
cing the motion OF the wheels. This sue
cessful trial of steam az q motive power on
our canals is one of great Importance, and
will be hailed with Joy by those who desire
this great artery of Ohio such an instrument
of wealth and business as it should be to the
country through which it passes.-Ctsceid"d

Has Wife any Pecuniary value'

We ought perhaps to beg pardon of our
fair readers for entertaining Tor II moment
this question. which we assure them wa NOT
one of our own proPoundng. But IL case in
volvng this point was tried at the Oneida
*. \. Circuit Court Oh the 18th inst, III
which the plaintiff sought to recover from
the Hudson River Railroad Company dam
ages for the loss Of his VIE, who Was killed
while on an express tram on that road, II
way train having run into the one upon
which she was travelling. The demand was
lrr 81 900, the maximum allowed by law for
the loss OF single life The de fence set up
was that no pecuniary damages had been
sustained. The jury to whom this ease was
committed had, 1t appears, t"lerable apprr-
citation of the value of wife, and, we doubt
not were happy in their domestic relations;
for they finally awarded damages to the
amount of $1,000 to the hereayed husband
This settles the question that wife has a
pecuniary value aside from the amount of
gold she may POSSESS. aud will afford Ia
many husband who had supposed himself
utterly insolvent much consolation.
