lowing match, which came off at LmpsfeId Sur

unusual one, may interest some readers Some
two months since, Mr.. Horloch, of Limpsfeld, made
d thalcn with MT Phlilp Anderson, of London, that
morse at that time in his possession would inmn a
greater height of wall or timber than any otber
horse which MIR. Anderson could find in England

THE THREE MONTHS YoLUwrErRs-Th following
extract is taken from the Piltsburg Post of the
28th.
From personal interviews with many of them
and from letters written to their friends in this city
by others, 1t is probable that very few of the three
months volunteers now near the Marviand lima
fhG sdr7eef n aafrf E VII be disBGsed to continue in
plred. They complain of the manner ia which they
have been treated, and say that their clothing ia
worn out and some OF them we know are sendipr
home for clothes. They also complain that their
tood IS not such as they expected such as might
easily be furnished.
Crops IN TENNEssEE.-We clip The following from
the CIarksve (Tenn.) Chronicle of the 2lst:
The harvesting of the wheat crop in cur State ia
now nearly over, and certainly such a crop was
never known before in Tennessee. An immense
crop was sown, and no accident or injury whatever
has 0eialIen 1t. The young corn, too looks very
well, but it is too early yet for anything more than
speculation about this crop. Never in the memory
OF man has there been a crop Of wheat in this sec
tion-embracing Southern keutuckv-so uniyer-
sally superior in quality and abundant in yield.
