The Progress OF Florida.

Mr.. Senator Yulee. of Florida, in reply TO a
recent invitation of a social character, took
--~~s;on go -"s',~-L upaa the growing pros
perity of that State He said:
Now, however within n few years past a
change has been working, which il is our true
policy to cherish, and which will place us in
the next census upon prouder footing The
State has started upon new career, and the
noise OF what she is doingis already beginning
To be heard. What has already been achieved
may well encourage US TO go on.
The electric wires have penetrated to us in
the west and the east, aud soon may meet
together across the length Of the State.
Roads are progressing in various direc-
tions, which will connect all the best harbors
on the Gulf with those OF the Atlantic. and
furnish avenues for every various need of
commerce.
Agriculture has caught the spark, of i'm
provement, aud the products OF our fields are
daily increasing.
Our cities are advancing Ia their improve
ment, and new towns are springing into ex-
istence with an elasticity that evidences th
progress we are making.
And in all social respects the advancement
is equally evident.
Reference was also made to the prospective
opening OF the railroads across Florida (from
the Atlantic 10 the Gnlf,) which, IL Is reason
ably expected. will contribute essentially 10
the development OF its Internal resources

The wheat Crop of the Country.

1t is admitted that unusually large
wheat crop has been gathered the present
season. The figures representing the amount
are eagerly seized and hastily made thesbasis
of calculations, that are err oneons and decep-
tive. 1t does not follow because the crop is
large that prices are to rule very low. The
question first to be settled is whether the
supply will exceed the demand in this coun-
try.
When the crop is small and prices rule
very high, other grains are consumed TO u
considerable extent. in the place of wheat, by
the people of this country. But wheat is the
great staple for bread, when it commands a
medium price.
1t has been estimated that the crop, the
present season, will reach two hundred mil
lion of bushels. Each inhabitant of the
country, doubtless, consumes an average of
about five bushels, allowing for seed and
wasIage. Deducting the slave population of
the South, and estimating the remaining
population at about % ,000, 900, the home con-
sumption will be not far from Sl35, 600 900 Of
bushels.
A surplus would, upon this calculation, re-
main. But this must be considerably re-
duced by the consumption in factories Of the
country. and the greater supply demanded
by families ut present prices.
It is difficult TO see that a surplus can be
calculated on that will justify a material re-
duction in the present price of -four, or to
cause this staple TO fall TO the point a. which
il may be prohtably exported-N. o. PIC.

Legislative Union and American.

The propretors of the Union and american,
OF this city, propose to continue the publica-
ton of the reports of the the proceedings and
debates of our State Legislature. They will
be provided with professional reporter
for each House, and promise TO make the
publication full and impartial. The value of
such a publication can scarcely be over
estimated. The publishers say
1.-TWO years ago, the publishers of this
paper made the experiment of publishing a
Legislative paper devoted exclusively to the
publication OF impartial Legislative reports
and official State documents. In pecuniary
point of view the experiment was not success
full; but the great usefulness of such reports
has been proved, and we have determined to
issue the Legislative Union and Ama7cqR dur
ing the ensuing session, in greatly improved
form. Our Senate reports two years ago,
were meagre. We shall have regular pro-
fessiOnal reporters, during tbe next session,
in both Houses aud pay thasame attention
TO the reports of one House (as to the other.
The paper will appear in an improved form,
more convenient for binding and reference
than that OF the last session. For the entire
and strict impartiality which will characterize
il, we can appeal to the former volume, which,
in its House reports, was accepted as authority
by both parties in the last canvass. The
terms will be one dollar per copy, for the ses-
sion, always IN advance, OF six copies for five
dollars"
