followed by majority of American writer's so
far our observation extends--N. Carolina

1t has retained all the good of its predeccs
sors, and has added new and valuable improve
ments. Hon. Horace Mann has
said g It's the best defining Dictionary in the

and others have declared themselves decidedly
in favor of the accuracy and extent of its def
nitions. In this respect, pronunciation, }
Webster's works appear TO us at least as good
and authoritative as any we have seen. .
These alterations, (orthography,) appear to us
not only reasonable, but also popular, when we
are told that ten million school books are annu-
ally published in the United States, compiled by
authors who recognize Webster as their stand
ard of photography. Too high praise
cannot be bestowed on the execution OF the rood

THE BARLEY CROP OF 1s6O.-Mr. Samuel
R. Ford, of New York, has issued his an
nual circular with relation to the barley
crop, which we publish below
The breadth of ground sowed to barley
in this State, was fully one-fourth less than
in 1859, and the quantity of spring barley
will not be more than half as much as last
year. Some of the best barley counties
have nearly abandoned spring barley, the
farmers turning their attention to winter
barley, which is a much suTer and more
profitable crop. The average yield of
spring barley is estimated at Is to 20 bush
els per acre. that of winter at 35 to so
bushels. The large proportion of winter
barley will probably bring the aggregate
crop of the State nearly up to that of last
year In most counties spring barley is
represented as light and poor, winter as
heavy and good. have endeavored to con-
dense the information derived from my cor
respondence, and arrange it so as to give q
fair representation of the crop in each of the
barley growing counties.

AMERICAN CITIZENS IN FRANCE.-A case
of great Importance to American citizens of
foreign birth from the continent of Europe
and particularly France, has just been de-
cided by the French tribunals. A native of
the department of the Lower Rhine, nam
ed Michael Zeiter, emigrated while yet boy
to the United State, where he became a ma
turaliZed citizen at the proper time and in
due form of law. In France his name had
been enrolled for CONSUMPTION on the regis
ter, and when he reached the age of militia
ry service the lot fell on him to serve. Be-
ing absent, the police were directed to seize
him whenever they might find HIM. An
opportunity at length presented itself
Zeiter, little dreaming what was in store
for him, returned to see the spot where he
first drew breath. 1t was at Weissenberg.
He was arrested as deserter from the army.
Mr.. Faulkner, the American Minister at
the ground that there was no service due
from him at the time of his emigration, and
that, having renounced his allegiance to
France and sworn allegiance to the United
States, France has now no claim upon him,
and his individual allegiance is due to the
land of his adoption. The French tribunal
has pronounced in favor of the claim of the
American Minister, and Zeiter has been dis
charged. The case is highly important, as
the release of the prisoner was claimed as
a right and it will therefore serve as pre-
cedent, not only in France, but on the con-
tinent of Europe generally.

Mr.. BELL SECTIONAL MAN.-In his
speech on the Nebraska and Kansas bill,
May %, 1854, Appendix to the Congress
ional Globe, page 943, Mr.. Bell said
But it is proper to say that I had de-
termlned not by any vote of mine to thwart
the Southern friends of the bill on any
amendment which they might desire to
make to the bill at any time, though l
should conclude to oppose its passage. This
course adopted as n Southern man. and
may appear SECTIONAL but he that supposes
that have no sectional feelings or sympa-
thies is mistaken.

EngIlsh Crop Prospects.

"The weather of the past week, though
below the usual temperature, and cloudy,
with some rain, has further improved the
appearance of the crops, and has been more
calculated to produce better sample than
a very hot sun. 1t is not, however, expect
ed that any wheat will be cut till the
middle of August, and some districts ia the
North complain of its not yet being in ear.
Accounts very much vary as to the ultimate
prospects of the yield, but generally less
than an average is expected. Much of the
best barley is laid, and the entire growth
varies considerably, though the breadth
sown was large. A good deal more hay has
been carted, much discolored, but much of
the crop is still ont. The potato disease is
said by the largest growers to be advancing
rapidly; some faint appears also in Ireland,
as well as in Belgium. Spain, like Northern
Italy, finds a smaller yield of Wheat than
was expected, though both countries have
fine samples, and this is the case with the
South or France.
The new Odessa Ghirka weighs fully 60
lbs per bush but in Hungary, Normandy,
Belgium and Holland, variable weather has
kept the crops ackward and prices huctuat-
ing. In America, as welt as Southern
Russia, there is both quantity and quality
this year, and the Baltic, if backward, does
not send many complaints, though prices
keep high. Our own markets, from the
improvement of the weather and more lib
eral supplies Of foreign, have been dull, but
pretty well sustained, in consequence of the
diminution of the stocks in the country.
Even if further liberal supplies are to be ex-
pected, a change to bed weather would pro-
duce large business at full prices; while an
increased consumption of foreign, though
with fine weather, must, we think, prevent
any serious decline until the new crop APP
pears in quantity. And this is but distant
expectation.-MarkL Lime Express.

The Indianapolis journal says:
Ex-Governor Morehead of Kentucky, who
addressed the Bell meeting here few days

Republican cause as a sectional triumph, is
the same gentleman who, in l84s, made a
speech in Wayne county in this State in
favor of the Wilmot Proviso, and to con-
vince the Quakers of that county that Gen
eral Taylor would not veto the Proviso if
passed during his administration. Was he
then the advocate of sectional doctrine. If
the doctrine was right then, why is it not
