RESULTED IN DEATH.-In the early
part of last week David 5. Taylor,
son Of Tilton Taylor, of Spruce Ward,
died in the Goth year Of his age. 1t
will be remembered by our readers
that one year ago last Spring young
Taylor, with a party Of compan-
ions, while strolling through an
adjoining township, helped them
selves to some cherries. The owner
of the property, Romig by name, wal
ted until the boys descended from the
tree, and then chokcd young Taylor
until he BECAME insensible. He Offer
ed TO pay for any damage which
might have accrued from this action,
or to go before a justice and be tried
for misdemeanOr, if such existed, but
his prosecutors were only to be salts
fed with choking him until the blood
flowed from his nostrils and mouth.
subsequently suit was entered by his
father against the parties for assault
with intent to kill, but unfortunately
was settled, We are informed, before
the then acting District Attorney,
Mr.. Mckenty. The young man since
the occurrence has never been fully !
restored to health, and last week died.
Fortunately for the brutal agsressors,
in the Spring of 1859, the time limit,
ed bv law-one year and day-had
exnired but we deem it our duty to |
make this mention of the SAD result OF
a most outrageous attack.-REApISG

The Crols.

The Chicago Press ant Tribune, in re-
ply to a Southern paper, makes the follow
ing estimate Of the Northwest: "Illi-
nois has grown not tushel Of wheat
short of 26,000. 900, and Indiana about
100000. The wheat crop Of Wiscou-
sin will exceed l7,C00, 900, Iowa II, ,000,-
600, Minnesota 100000, and Michigan
100000 Your estimate of Ohio, 25,-
100000, is about correct but many Of
her best informed citizens think her crop
will reaoh2s goo geo Thus you perceive
that the seven Northwestern States have
produced lis, 100000 bushels of wheat
The surplus that can be spared from Hi.
nois, Wisconsin, Iowa and Minnesota, af-
ter keeping abundance for bread and seed,
will be equal to half Of their whole crop.
If your people in the South are likely to
be destitute of bread they can draw On the
Prairie States for wheat enough TO make
two millions oe barrels of four, and We
shall still have enough and to spare

The Simeon of the Desert.

We have seen many different accounts
Of that terror Of those crossing the Africa n
Desert, the terrible simeon or hot VIVID,
but the f lowing from Col. Du COurci's
new work, "Life in the Desert" presents
some new points:
"The heavens became suddenly obscured
by heavy clouds, until the sun rayless, and
red as blood, warned US of the approaching
tempest. Whirlwinis Of sand, mingling
with the falling vapors, swept the desert,
which surged before the blast Ike angry
waters We hastily ranged ourselves in
ludian file, so as to present as little sur
face as possible to the coming simeon, fcI
which, On this occasion, We were not IN
prepared.
"Gradually our lungs became oppressed,
our eyes bloodshot, our lips hot aud parch-
ed The air around US scorching as the
breath of furnace, was charged With par
,icles of fue sand and drIf,ed before the
wind like sea. foam in storm. The
lightning bolts flashed, accompanied BY
the crash Of the thunder, which sounded
over the gloomy desert like the voice of
Jehovah Men stood in wild alright,
camels broke away aud rushed believing
from the track, until they fell hcsllong in
the sand, into which they plunged their
heads and long necks, seeking thus 10 es-
cape the poisoned breath Of the plague
wind.
"At length the rainbow on the skirts of
the tempest, spanning the dark space from
east to west like luminous bridge thrown
across Morebund Hadramant, one end
resting upon Djebe,-Akhbar and the Other
upon Djebel-Aud,
"Niue of our camels were missing, in
searching for which we approached the
end of one Of the sand CULTS, when We
stumbled upon the remains Of caravan
bound from Grein in Hadramsnt to Olu-
Jaseb. Removing tho sand, We found
several dead Arabs, victims Of the fell
blast of the simeon, in tie terror and con-
fusion caused BY which they had evident
ly wandered blipdly to the edge of the
,reacherous quicksand in which the main
body of the caravan had pcrished.
"Among them We found young man
and girl-brother and sister-clasped in
each others arms. A slight indication Of
moisture on the bodies of these inspired
one with hope that;s might not ye, be too
late to restore them to consciousness By
judicious and perseveriog friction, and the
copious use of lavender water, with which,
luckily, was always well supplied, soon
had the pleasure of seeing the young girl
revive-while Selim, BY the application of
similar remedies to the youth, was equally
successful"

The New York Republican State
Convention assembled at Syracuse on
the 2Jth st.,-every county and dis
trict being fully represented. The at
tendance Of outsiders was very great.
James c. Smith of Ontario-one Of
the original and unfaltering Free
Soil Democrats-was called Temporal
rily TO the chair, and delivered an in
spring address.
There was no contest for the prin-
cipal State Offices. The public voice
had so clearly demanded a rcnomina-
ton OF the faithful and worthy incum-
bcnts that even the formality of bal
lot was dispensed with and Gov.
Morgan and Lt.-Gov. Campbell re-
nominated by acclamation. For the
subordinate posts (now filled by Dem
ocrats) there were of course many
names presented, but the Convention
speedily selected Samuel II. Barnes
Of Chenango for Canal Commissioner
and Dr.. James X. Bates of Jefferson
for Prison Inspector. The State
Ticket therefore stands
For Governor Ed. d. Morgan, New York.
For Lt.-Governor-Ro5 Campbell ,Sieuben
For Canal Com'r-S. H. Barnes, Chenango.
For Prison Inspector. X. Bates Jefferson.
William Cullen Bryant, the cele-
brated Poet, is one OF the electors at
large.

QUARTZ MILLING Al lhE Ian
Mr.. II. Ii. Harris of Milwaukee, a larg
owner of quartz mills at Pixies Peak
writing from the Gregory Diggings, say:
Of tina, business:
"Tbere are now about fifty mills in op
Grafton, 10 one of which comes up to the
auticipations Of its friends. The reason:
fyr these partial failures are obvious TO ev
cry qlartz-mill owner in the mines. IL
the first place, much Of the machinery ha:
been manufactured like 'slop-shop clothing
for sale cheap-and like that SAINT
clothing, is found too cheap, when brought
into actual service la the second place,
few Of the mills have any machinery for
saving the fne gold, and nothing for pu!-
verizlng the quartz after leaving the
stamps; aud, in the third place, the quartz
does not contain the gold that many have
anticipated. TIE chilled stamps aud cast
iron collars do not seem TO work well !;
there is too much friction on the cams,
while the stamps are less durable than
The steel ones. Wrought iron collars aud
steel dies seem to have the preference.
There is much speculation among 'out-si-
ders' relative to the amount of gold being
taken out by the various mills, and while
stories Of success are heralded far and
near, the failure Of any one Of them is
Kept as near home as possible. From
personal observation, | should say, taking
them as whole, they are just about pay
ing expenses. There is much cutting,
and trying, and czperimenting with most
OF the mills, and will be fora year to come"

ToMAToEs.-As this Is the season
when tomatoes are coming into use, il
is well to know the opinion Of medi-
cal men relative to their merits. DR..
Bennett, professor ofsomc celebrity,
gives his opinion as follows -
1st.-That the tomato is one Of tho
most powerful apcrient Of the liver
and other organs where calomel IS
indicated, it is one Of the most effect,
i've and least harmless remedial agents
known to the profession.
2d.-That chemical extract will
be obtained from it that will super
cede the use OF calomel in the cure Of
disease.
3d.-That he has successfully treat.
ed diarrhe with this article alone.
4th.-That when used as an article
of diet it is an almost sovereign cemo.
