Crop Prospects.

Crop Prospects
It only needs a ride through Hunterdon Co.,
to have the mind convinced of the great beauty
of the country at this season of the year. Every
thing seems to have new life impaired to it by
the luxuriant rains which have fallen lately The
crops generally are in very promising state of
progress not being materially affected by either
frost or worms Grass crops promise well, and
farmers are now engaged in hay making to a
considerable extent. We find the fruit crops in
high state of progress; with every indications
of an abundant harvest. We have lately been
through portions of Amwell, Delaware, and King
wood townships, and find the tillers of the soil
in those sections of the country in very good
spirits pointing with feelings of delight to their
golden fields, and ever ready to show visitors
and strangers specimens of their luxuriant crops
ofrye We were shown some stalks of rye
measuring eight feet four inches clear of the roots
which we consider very fine and exceeding hard
to surpass. With the farmers, now, lie the fu-
ture well doing Of the country, and they feel
their Importance, which we consider making up
for short crop.

Internal Machines.

Lieut. Hampton, of the Second police dis
trict, Phila., arrested a boy named Christopher
Krauss, on Monday evening, for fighting, and
upon searching him at the station-house, dis
covered several contrivances used for doing mis-
chief, and dealing hard blows upon those with
whom he might come in contact Among the
articles was set of iron knuckles, and band
of sheep skin, so arranged that it could be tied
on the hand To this sheep skin was affixed a
sharp sailmakers needle, two inches long. The
lad was held to bail to keep the peace, which
means-he was discharged unpublished

A Pleasant Visit.

A few evenings since we paid short visit to
our friends of the Star MILL and feel thankful
that we were actuated to set about this trip
We found everything going on briskly, and were
informed that all the stones were kept running
night and day without cessation. Above eight
thousand bushels of wheat are stored, and ev-
erything except the town produce, is shipped
in boats to the cities The mill is in progressive
hands, and if there are other means of getting
along in this country, besides being pleasant,
obliging, and agreeable, Messrs. Titus Bur-
roughs & Co.. have not learned it.

Married.

The hatell5gencer informs US that Alexander
Rico and Susan Sanders, the negro and negress
tried in Doylestown Court some time since for
the murder of Joseph Sanders and acquitted,
have been united in the bonds of matrimony.-
They were married in Trenton, few days ago,
and are at present residing some place in New
Jersey. Since their marriage Susan has given
birth to child, which is said to be fac sin1ile
of Rico, who is greatly delighted at being so
soon made father

The New Bridge.

We learn that about $500 in all had been
subscribed towards building the new bridge at
Trenton up to Friday last. The Commissioners
profess to be highly encouraged with the pros
pect of success. The friends of the old bridge
say they have not got it yet, and the disin-
terested part of the neighborhood are delighted
with the contention and hope to see an oppo-
sition bridge erected, fattering themselves that,
as the mere name of the new bridge cut the tolls
down 90 per cent. at the old bridge, the sight
of q new bridge will take it all off and let them
go free.

Cricket.

The young gentlemen of our local institution,
the Cricket Club, are expecting to have an en-
counter at arms with the Trenton Club on the
glorious Fourth. but as yet it has not been de-
cided The Club here have challenged the
Trenton Club to play on the above date, but
owing to the engagements it is not known that
they will accept. 1t is undecided which ground
will be used on the occasion Some fine artistic
playing will be brought into view, and general
good time is expected We go in for the Della
ware, of course, and we want to have the first
game on the grounds at this place. Every
Wednesday game is played between members
of our Club, and all lovers of the game should
come out and countenance the players.

Help Us.

The local department of a county newspaper,
is the chief part, inasmuch as without it, there
would be decided leanness in its spirit. We
again call upon our friends to furnish us with
such items of news transporting in their neighbor-
hood, which might prove interesting to residents
in other portions of the county. We shall look
to our subscribers and patrons for aid in this de-
partment, feeling under great obligations for the
numerous favors already bestowed upon us.

We have no hesitation in pronouncing those
Photographs taken by Reeve, in Public Hall,
the pictures par excellence of all pictures. Any
one having any serious doubts concerning the
truth of the assertion, needs only to show his
form inside of the gallery, take look at the
pictures and receive nod from the proprietor,
to have them ali removed His specimens are
fine and as perfect fac simsilies of the originals
as could be procured anywhere. Try him once
and you will be pleased.

An Editor Gone.

John I. Allen, at one time editor of the Eas-

found drowned in the canal, recently, near Homes

able ability, but by hayward life lost the caste
he once held in society.

The Cattle Market.

The last return of the market shows a decline
in price equal to about half cent per pound,
with downward tendency. The reason of the
decline is probably because Of the diminished con-
sumption of meat during the summer.
