Preblo County Correspondence.

New PARIS, June 18th, 1859.
Mr.. EMPlRE-Since my last there has been
a visitation of Providence upon the country,
which, at the time, appeared to be of more
momentous Importance to the people than
any of the thousand jars of political life. |
allude to the frost of Saturday night, the 9TH
inst. deferred writing until this time,
knowing that you would be well informed
Immediately upon the fact of the frost and
its probable consequence upon the crops,
but its actual results would not be known,
and its disastrous effects which depended
upon the contingency of rain soon, be felt
for some time
Sufficient time has now passed and can
speak with as much certainty as belongs to
man as to the actual result of the freeze on
that night have by actual inspection and
reliable information u good knowledge of
the condition of all the crops subject to in
jury from frost, and can give the farmers
and all others interested, the result of nv
examination. The main crop, suffering the
most is the corn; and for two days sue
ceeding the night of the frost, that crop in
this county appeared to be, might say, to-
tally destroyed Such would have been the
case had the copious rain of Tuesday night
been withheld for two days longer, but that
lalling when it did gave great vigor to the
root and germ ofthe plant, and by Saturday
when passed by the same fields, that
had passed on the Tuesday preceding, the
effects OF the frost were scarcely visible
since then we have had two good warm
rains, and now the corn crop seems scarce,
ly to have suffered.
might add just here few remarks up
on the necessity of cutting off the injured
part of the corn, and its evil and good re.
suits.
lpersuaded one farmer who had fine
field of corn, badly cut down, to cut part
and leave the rest to nature to slough off
which he did, The result of my operation
is that the part which he left uncut is grow,
ing finely, having but few dead leaves on it
while that which he did cut is Just be
ginning to put forth new leaves.
! observed that the greater part uncut by
the strength of growth brought back the
suspended animation into the apparently
dead stalk and left but the tips of the leaves
to slough of, while that which was cut had
to form new leaves and restore new stalk
l think, therefore, that frost bitten corn had,
upon the whole, better be left alone, and let
nature do her work of resuscitation.
l have seen no wheat which has been in.
jured. 1t can easily be told by examining
the stalk at the second joint just below the
ear.
Upon the whole, therefore, | think that
those who wish to make capital out of bed
crops are disappointed this time as usual.
The same Providence, allwise and good
which sent the frost, also sent the rain that
restored the dropping plants.
Yours &c. SIG

Floating downward from The region
OF the beautiful above,
Come the spring times music greetings,
All the melodies Of love
From the roses heart uprises
Tenderly a fragrant prayer
From the lilYs pure white chalice
Liquid music fills the air.
In the violet's soul reposeth,
Low aud sweet, the cradle song,
or the meek aud poor and lowly,
Passing, white robed, mid the throng.
OF the worshippers Of Mammon,
All unheeded save by those
WHO can read the spirits mission,
Meath the pressure Of life's woes.
In the pine woods gentle siehings
Give unto the breezes wing.
All the loving secrets guarded
BY the fioweret, leaf and spring
With the love tones Of the forest,
With its plaintive melody,
Mingles solemnly the oceans
Deep refrain incesantly
Music from the towering mountain,
From the valley, through the wood,
Der tho wavelets speeding murmur.
With the joy of love mbued
From the regions Of true beauty,
From the immortal lands of love,
Harmonies Of soul are leading
To the ideal realms above
Spring time crowned with farest bloss oms
d Type Of renovated life,
Speaking with its angel voices
Mid Earth's turmoil, care and strife.
Welcome spirit loving angel
Messenger from realms on high,
Bringing TO earth. homes and bosoms
Sunlight Of eternity.

The National Finances.

Mr.. Cobb, Secretary Of the Treasury, has
submitted TO Congress statement Of the
present and prospective condition Of the
national finances, This has been done 10 re,
ply 10 resolution calling for the ACTUAL and
probable receipts from the customs, public
lands, and other sources, for this and
the next FISCAL year, IN order 30 ascertain
whether the said receipts would be adequate
TO meet the public expenses, without an adj
dIional loan Or an increased tariff
Mr. BuehanAns Secretary says that the
receipts during the GrEi quarter Of the present
dseal year, ending Sept last, we're nearly GEO.
23l 900, as stated 10 his annual report. The
receipts for the remaining three quarters
we're estimated at s3s 100000, Of which sum
s37,OOO,O0O we're estimated from the customs,
It was believed tha. the quarter ending De-
eember last would yiGd Sl0,OO0.ooOi the
present quarter ending on the 3Ist Of March,
$4,000 ,oOOi and the next quarter, ending
on the 3Oth Of June, Sl2,0OO,OOO. In refer
enee not only TO the customs, but the public
lands and other sources Of revenue, oil the
nforpation which has been received at the
department siaes bic annual report confirm
the correctness Of the estimates Of the proba-
ble receipts for the present and the next fs-
cal year. lie Is therefore Of the opinion that
the result will show that the actual receipts
for the remaining quarters Of the present
year, and the next Gscal year, will not vary
materially from tho estimates already sub
mitted 10 Congress.
To realize bis estimates the importation Of
du,iable goods for the present fiscal year
must reach S25Ooo0OOo besides those sx-
ported and for the reIt iiGcal year the sum
Of S2so,0OooOo. Comparing tho foregoing
statement ofrceelpts, and looking TO n healthy
reaction in business, he should regard il as
unsafe and unwise to calculate upon a larger
importation than the present estimates con
template. Entertaining these opinions, he Is
compelled to say that the receipts will not
be adequate to the necessity Of the public ext.
gcncies, unless the expenditures should be
reduced below the amount estimated. lie
hos sean M indications that uo.lld induce tho
opinion that such q rcbult can be reasonably
anticipated. On the contrary. shoald the
bills which have been passed by either branch
Of Congress be finally passed by both, and
become laws the expenditures will be very
largely and permanently increased.
The necessity, therefore, Of an increase Of
duties on imports to raise more revenue, and
probably loan besides, is Obvious. When
