The potato crop Of Iowa for the year 1860
is truly astounding. The yield in some
instances comes up to 400 and 800
bushels to the acre, and the general average
is not much less than 200. The quality of
the potatoes is better than usual, and far ex.
ceeds the best raised in any country we have
ever visited
Not sign of rot or inper!ection has been
discovered. So plenty and cheap are they
that for the past weak many loads have sold
at | 0 cents per bushel. No danger of starry
ing in Iowa at these figures. = Chicago Jour

EFFECTS OF PEARLAsH.-The PHILADELPHIA
Ledger has the following:
Ii our Western friends can in any way teach
their wives, daughters, or cooks, to keen the
psarlash out of their bread, all the yellow peo.
pie, especially the yellow children, who are
supposed to be turned yellow by fever and
ague, and bilious feyers, will soon be turned
white 1t is great mistake to suppose that
the yellow countenances of the West come
from bite, when it is the enormous quantity of
pearlash eaten in the bread that is reflected
through the skin. Bread is the staff of life. it
is sald-and so it is-but it is the staff of death,
too, in this country. Bad bread kills about as
many people here as bad rum. So many peo.
pie eat poisonous pearlash for bread that they
die oy inches Dyspepsia, that great monster
disease OF the country, that deranges the liver.
brings on costiveness, and thus finally kills the
human victim. is half the time "pearlash. -
Here, In the East-out of New Enpland-we
have nearly driven off the pearlas6- -saleratns
cooks, but not altogether. Pearlash lives here
yet In bread, but in cities and towns we have
nearly whipped out the murderers. In the
distant Western towns, beyond the good hotels
OF the lakes and rivers, pearlash, under the
name OF saleratus, is king. It is pearlasb for
breakfast, pearlash for dinner. and pearlash
for supper. 1t Is not any wonder, then, that
the people of the East turn yellow West, and
sicken, not OF fever and ague, bilious and con-
gestive fevers, but Of pearlash three times a
day. :"

Tom MARsHALL's LAsr-At Buffalo. Hon
Tom Marshall, that most erratic and grotesoue
son of genius, introduced a negro fiddler to a
fashionable audience who had gathered to hear
him lecture on the close of Napoleon's career
Tom gave his 'friend" the fiddler a first rate
notice, and said
"He had asked his friend to play two simple
airs, which were peculiarly appropriate to his
subject. One was the air Love Not, which TO
him seemed to voice all that the divorced
Empress Josephine must have felt and thought;
the other, The Grave of Bonaparte,' was a
fitting dirge for the mighty Emperor as he lay
in his sea -girt sepulchre. His friend had con-
sented, at his urgent request, to honor him by
singing these airs; he was sure his audience
would also feel honored." Which they evil
IDENTIFY did, as manifested by immense ap-
piause. Nose sat down-touched tho guitar
gently and pathetically for Josephine, and
thundered the ''cannon's dead rattle for the
sleeping Emperor.
After the music Marshall rose, Strengthened
himself to his Senatorial height, and proceeded
with the lecture. "Love not," he said
The thing you love may change
Love not the thing You love NAV die.
yes, he added; land, o God to Josephine
how bittsrer than death was that chanesIU
The lecturer had a good start.
