Wheat Prospects In the Interior.
Especial Correspondence Of 0htcago TEbune.l
BEMm, Bureau County, July 2s. 1861.
have examined pretty extensively into the
state Of the wheat harvest in this section,
with the following results: First, all wheat
near the timber lands Is almost antire1y de-
stroyed by the cbinch bug. Some men have
cut fifteen acres ont Of eighty acres, and saved
not more than ten acres Many farmers will
have scarcely enough for home consumption.
On lands away from the timber, wheat Is very
thin on the ground. Not more than half a
crop on the best FIRMS and highest land, and
not that on the Low and vet lands: In
my opinion, wheat will bring higher figures
before this year is out. You may rely upon
the above as strictly correct. This is one Of
the best counties ID the State for grain.
Since writing the above, I have got the
names of several men (snd can give them, il
required) who will not cut any Of their wheat,
though they have from fifty to eighty acres.

Four or five soldiers from Memphis passed
through this city, on their way to their
homes in Michigan, suffering under the
dread disease, the scurvy. 1t has made its
appearance in our camps there, and in
other parts Of the Federal army. Later
official intelligence comes from the Medi-
cal Director to the Sanitary Commission
that the case is imminent, that delay will
be dangerous, for the sad fact is apparent
that the malady is spreading among our
troops,
Let no reader be alarmed. It Is not con-
tagious, It will not pass from man to man,
though it will be very likely to involve all
who are in the same nsss It is only in
danger Of being wide spread in our army
because the mental disease Of incapacity
and show not to do it," is contagion
The Medical Director referred to does mol
fo1bcar to express Ills conviction that this
melancholy condition Of things is wholly
needless. He says the army is surrounded
BY vast fields Of corr NOW in the roasting
car, snd gardens abundant in plenty. HI

Al e-mphis, q fortnight ago, seces
sionist, spiteful in his zeal, with two son

rebel induced him to raise his price to t.
cents an ear. This the soldiers deemed g
orhitant, and helped Themselves at q 1e
price. In twenty -four hours time FEEDER
soldiers were detailed aud placed abo
that field, with orders to shoot any soldi
who should attempt to enter it. And f

Guerrilla Work In Western Virginia.

counties design making raid On Parkersburg.
Last Friday party of mounted rebels stole q

burg. On the same day party Of rebels
f1red upon Alexander Beatty, an g=1lye
Union man, and magistrate of Writ
county. Beatty has since died. A large num-
ber of hcrees have recently been stolen from
Wood and Writ counties, and the rebels, who
are inside Of Col Rathbone's lines, are con.
atsntly seen upon the high roads evidently in
communication with Parkersburg secession,
