inventions in labor saving machinery may be
seen being shipped off to the country in every
direction The accounts from the country, as
to the existing condition of the crops, are va

by the rains to the wheat, but so far the tone Of
things, on the whole, is not unfavorable, unless
farther rains Cause rust in the wheat.

EXECUTION OF VETERAN OFFICER
Lieut. Gen. Gunkel-a pensioned officer who
has seen much service and distinguished
himself on many field of battle, Waterloo
included-has escaped the shot and bayonets
of the enemy, to die on scaffold, in his eigh-
ty-fourth year, for the crime of murder by poi
SON. The sausage seasoned with arsenic,
which he had prepared for his mistress, was
rejected by her and eaten by her brother, who
died in consequence. The hoary criminal
was accordingly arrested, and the evidence as
well as his confession having shown him to be
guilty, he was sentenced last Saturday to be
hanged in the Hague. He since appealed in
cessation, but the sentence is sure to be con-
hrmed The culprit has for many years been
on intimate terms with the royal family, and
it is not improbable that the king will exercise
his preroogative by committing the punishment
OF death into perpetual confinement. The
miserable old soldier who, notwithstanding
his advanced age is in full possession of his
faculties, has made several attempts at self
destruction; but measures have been taken
that he shall not escape the ignominy of dying
on the gallows.

ROUNDABOUT WAY OF PRovING PRoPH-
EcY.-The following curious paragraph is cop
led from the Cologne correspondent of the
Continental Review eve may now afford
to smile at abe singular prophecy of the West
phalian shepherd who lived some hundred and
fifty years ago, and who predicted terrible
European war, in the course of which the
Turks shonld cool the feet of their horses in
the Rhine" These things-thus runs the ira
dlton-were to come to pass when carriages
run without horses, and the Prussian soldiers
were dressed like the soldiers who crucified
Christ. Carriages do run without horses, and
the silhouette of a Prussian in his tunic and
helmet is in all respects that of Roman le-
gionary. But the superstitious who speculat-
ed on this singular prophecy could never rec
oncile with it the decline of the Tnrish power
and the manifest improbability of the Sultans
troops carrying the standard of the Prophet
to the banks of the Rhine. They forget that
France has Algerine regiments Of Spahis and
Zouaves, and that many of them are as good
Moslemen as ever walked in the streets OF
Stamboul.

HARD TINES in IowA-We are sorry to
learn from the Iowa papers that there is much
suffering in the State from want of food. Dur
ing the early part of Spring, cattle died of
starvation by scores throughout the State,
there being no grain to feed with and that
affairs are not whit improved at this time,
may be learned by the following picture of
distress, from the Eddyvlle Commercial
at is useless to deny or attempt to conceal
the fact This region of the country is desti.
tute of the necessaries of life. The stock of
food for man and beast is about exhausted.
There is, perhaps, corn enough to feed those
who are unable to buy flour; but they have
not the means to buy corn. 1t is in the hands
of few persons, and they will only sell for
cash at dollar bushel. Not one third of
those who need to buy corn, have the dollar,
or any means of getting it; for the money,
like the corn, is out of the reach of the desti-
tute. We are no panic maker, but of this we
feel certain, and we speak advisedly, that in
thirty days from this time, unless those who
have surplus agree to part with it, on time,
at fair price, it will be distributed and car.
ried away by bands of desperate men, to feed
their starving families. This sounds terribly
but it is too near the truth, and men will not
suffer their families to starve, when food can
be procured by going and taking it."

The OBERLIS TRIALs-Hdbeds Corpus
Granted.-Late developments give new inter-
est to the case Of the Oberlin rescuers. The
Cleveland Herald of the 10Th states that, the
day previous, Fan order was made by Judge
Scott, of the Supreme Court, upon Sheriff
Wightman, to have the bodies of Bushnell and
Langston-the two convicted and sentenced
rescuers-before the Judges of the Supreme
Court at Columbus, ON Wednesday, the 25th
inst. Judge Scott has directed that the full
bench of Judges have notice of the hearing, so
that all can participate in it." The writ
amounts to nothing as an expression of opinion
upon the constitutionality of the Fugitive
Slave Act, because it issues as matter of
course upon application Of parties in custody,
who make affidavit that they are illegally i'm
prisoned. The former application in which
the Supreme Court directed argument On the
notice to show cause why the writ should not
issue, was out Of the usual course. inasmucb
as the Supreme Court was in session and such
course would save time, expense, and needless
excitement. The hdnappers, held in custody
in Loran county, are to have their trial in
July, and have been required to give bonds in
the sum Of $1,000.
