Afler the adjournment Of the meeting, Mr.
Hickman proceeded to his rooms at the Cont.

tie PennsylTauia Coruet Band, compliuented
him With a serenade. In anawer 10 loud and re-.

upon the balcony.
Nr. Hickman said be Was very sorry that the
condition Of hi4 health, and the condition Of his
yoice, alike prevented him from tho pleasure
Whlch he should hare felt in addressing them.
He would eudeaEor, on some future occasion, to
make speech. he had not get attempted to
do 70, only as be knew lhey had IN ALTAR in
their midst inscribed to the unknown god, he
proposed to himselfto come down and speak Of
that unknown god--Stepben A. DouRtss. he
would continue 10 do 80 until the November
election, after which time they would neyer
hear Of Douglas again. [Applanse
There are thousands now worshlpin1 at his
shrine who hare not the slightest tdea Of what
his doctrines are; but he assured his hearers
thst there was no more inyeterate enemy to the
interests OF the North than Stephen A. Douglas,
and he would be utterly exterminated by Nor.

them for their kindness, Ar. Hickman retired

three years. Fou may suppose then that the
turner's are now lighter Of heart than they hare
been since the crops failed.
The wheat il all harvested, and some little Of
it threehed. The heads are mostly long and
the berry plump. It will average from Ten to
sixteen bushels to the acre-perhaps more
certainly not Less. Some goes as high rs twenty
