The Crops.

IL is gratifying to know that in these times of
war and tumult the crops of wheat and rye look
remarkably promising, and the probability is
that OF those grains we shall have an abund.
ant harvest. Indian corn has only Just been
planted in this latitude, so that it Is impossible
to predict results. IL may, however, be truly
stated that the ground was never in better con-
dition than now to receive that important
American cereal, and it would appear that any
thing short Of an average yield is not to be ex.
pected. So with potatoes, peas, beans, and all
kinds of garden truck and vegetables general
ly. There is no greater blessing than an ample
reward for the lsbors Of the husbandmen, es-
pecially as so many agricultural sons of indus
try have Joined the army. There is every
reason to hope that we shall enjoy the fruits Of
the earth In due season, and in view of the ready
market which all agricultural products are sure
to find, during the continuance of our national
troubles, every farmer should strive to make his
acres as productive as possible.-Lancaster

likely to lead to scarcity, but in time of civil

hear that in many instances the farmers are not
planting near the usual quantity of corn, argu-
ing that laborers will be scarce and their wages
high, and prices of produce so low, that they
will not be remunerated for their labor. This
Is an erroneous view of the subject As war

Edward Everett's Position.

Edward Everett concluded speech recently,
at Roxbury, with the following eloquent words:
My friends, deprecate war,--no man more
so: and, of all wars, most deprecate civil
war. And this, If prosecuted by the South In
the spirit in which she has commenced it, will
be what the stern poet of the civil wars OF Rome
called a 6eltum ptusquam ctutte-a more than
civil war. deprecate, more than | can ex-
press, war with the Sourh. You know my
political course. Logan, the lndian chief,
mournfully exclaimed: "Such was my love for
the whites, that my countrymen pointed at me as
they passed, and said, Logan is the friend OF the

as the friend of the South. For maintaining
what deemed her constitutional rights,

from my youth up, | have endeavored to
serve laboriously, dutifully, and affectionately.

two, wearied and disgusted with their burden

of the Administration. But the South has will.
ed it otherwise. She has struck a parricidal
blow at the heart OF the Union; and to sustain
her in unnatural and unrighteous war, is what
my conscience forbids. Neither will remain
silent, and sec this majestic frame work of gov.
ernment, the noblest political fabric ever reared
by human wisdom, prostrated in the dust to

mon sense, with cOtemporary history, and the
traditions of the Government; unsupported by
a single authority among the trainers of the
Constitution, and emphatically denounced by
Mr.. Madison, their leader and chief.
What then remains, fellow-citizens, but that
we should, without unchristian bitterness to.
wards our misguided couDtrymen, meet calmly
and resolutely the demands of the crisis; that
we should perform the duty Of good citizens with
and steadiness; that we should COR
daily support the government of the country in
the difficult position in which it is placed; that
we should cheer and encourage the brave men
who have obeyed its call, by generous care of
their families; and, to sum it all in one word,

turist fall into the error Of supposing that the
country will not need a greater amount of food
than ever while passing through its present
troubles. Every consideration of interest, of
patriotism, and Of public duty, demands of our
farmers that they should plant corn, and plant
It plentifully, go that famine at least shall not
