The conduct of these Zouaves at Scarsdale has
made them the terror of the neighborhood. They
help themselves to anything they want without
paying break up camp meetings, bully conductors
OF railroads, and in every way disgrace the uni
forms they wear and the flag they pretend to serve
under.
From, the NeU York ForId
More Officers than Privates.
1t is useless to shut eyes the fact that re-
cruitlng is progressing very slowly not only in this
city but all over the North. The same story comes
from every quarter-an abundance of organza-
tlons and officers, and very few privates.

From the Ne1y York Express
The Crops in New England
Our New England exchanges bring rather unfa-
vorabe reports OF the crops in that section of the
country. Both corn and potatoes are suffering for
the want of rain. This is the general CON plant in
Maine, New Hampshire and the northern part of
Massachusetts,. There is not so much compi amt
from drouth in Vermont, though the crops are not
hourishing. The Burlington Free Press SAYS the
wheat crops in Chittenden county will not average
more than two-thirds much as last year. The
corn Is late, and will not give average CROP;
probably not onefOurth part Of it is, as yet, lar ge
enough to boil for eating. The apple crop will be
a complete failure in every section Of New Eng
land.

to him the exposed condition of that city, and TO
ask that it be put in proper condition of Defense

Our own city needs similar attention, and, it is to
be hoped, will receive it 10 due season.

Military Murders IN st. Louis.
We learn from passengers who left ST. Louis by |
rail on Thursday, that two citizens had been shot in
cold blood, by order of the military dictator Gen
Fremont. Their offence, if any, was not known,
and we cannot find word about it in the St Louis
papers, except the following from the Republican,:
We learn from Franklin county that numerous |
arrests have been made, under Gen. Fremont's I
proclamation, of citizens found with arms in their
hauds, arrayed against the United States Govern
meut, and that twenty of them will be brought to
this city tomorrow, to be tried. by the Military
Commission now in session. Notice has also been |
given, in of suspected dsloyalty, that their
property will be contscated.
