man named Wells kept tavern In one Of our
Western villages; but though his house had q very
good name, it was more than he had himself; for
It was snrmised by his neighbors that he used a
great deal of corn fodder, etc., for which eever
gave an equivalent, though itehad never been
clearly proved upon him.
Early one morning, he was met by an acquaint-
ance, named Wilkes as be was driving before him
a heiter. which he had most probably borrowed
from some farmer.
Halo, Wells! where did you get that heifer y?
cried Wilkes.
Bought her from Col. Stevens was the un
hesitating reply.
"What did you pay for her?"
Twenty dollars,'' said Wells, as he hurried on
About an hour afterwards, as likes was sittin,
in Wells bar-room, Col. Stevens entered. Afte
few minutes conversation, Wilkes said:
"A fine animal that you sold Wells. Z"

where he got the animal or lose twenty dollars

pulled ous his wallet, oonnted out the money and

best he could. We heard that the man cut de-

A SENSIBLE DocToR on Doses. ~ DIR. Oliver
Wendell Holmes, who seems to understand physc
as well as he does poetry, at recent meeting of
the Massachusetts Medical Society, uttered this
sarcasm on the American greed for medicine:
Glow could a people, who have a revolution
once in tour years, who have contrived the hpwie
knife and the revolver who have chewed the jnice
out of all the superlatives in the language in Fourth
Of Jhly orations, and used up its epthets in the
rhetoric Of abuse, that it takes two great quarto
dictionaries to supply the demand which insists
in sending out yachts and horses and boys to out
sail, outrun, oulfght and checkmate all The rest OF
creation--how could such people be content with
anything but heroic practice? What wonder that

THE WHEAT CRoP IN VIRGNIA.-The Richmond
Wing has the following:
The accounts from the country are of very
gloomy character. A gentleman who has travelled
through much Of the State recently, gives it as his
opinion, that not halt an average crop can be
gathered this year. In many sections, the plant
came up badly, or badly winter. killed; and
many fields, that promised well six weeks ago, will
not yield the seed that was sown, in consequence
of the ravages of the fly or joint worm, or both.
Only the very early sown and heavily guanoed
fields can possibly yield fair crop. And those.
within the last week two appear to be seriously
threatened with the rnst.
A correspondent expresses the opinion, that
So so or even So 90 would not remunerate the
farmers the present season.
This is very bad news-for, with very sorry
tobacco crop, and the lowest prices for fifteen
years, a good yield Of wheat very essential to
the welfare of the farmers, and consequently to the
whole community. What makes the matter worse
is that there is every prospect that the article will
command such price as would, with an average
crop, difuse plenty and prosperity throughout the
Commonwealth. The Mark Lane xpress, the
highest authority in the world, admits that there
are no stocks any where, and that the growing
crops i'll Europe are far from promising. In ad-
dtion to the lack of stocks and the prospects, there
are sigus of serious trouble in Europe, which will
not tend to depress the price Of hreadstufs.
