Resisting the Draft .

The citizens Of Ozaukee and Washing
70, counties. in the true mob spirit that
cannot be looked upon bat with pleasure
nv t,e leaders Of the Southern rebellion,
have attempted to prevent the ohlcers Oh
Law from performing the duty OF drafting
the number of men called Tor from those
counties In Milwaukee, also so prevalent
was the mob spirit manifested, that the
a.,f, was postponed for ten days In
Ozaukse. the mob destroyed the militia
roll and the box prepared for the drafting
nroeess: and not content with that, the
oefeers were assaulted, and several houses
nearly demolished and much valuable fur
n;tnrs destroyed The mob, several hun
dred strong, mostly made up OF lgnoreni
neople. set on by few leading spirits,
armed themselves with guns, and even
made nse Of field pieces, to intimidate tie
Commissioners. The draft was resisted
but n portion of the offenders were arrest
ed by a few companies Of soldiers Sent
there, and through the determined spirit
Of " D. Mclndoe, the Provost Marshall
about 80 Of the offenders are said 70 be
now in camp at Milwaukee, aDa guarded
bv the volunteer soldiers.
Ozaukee, Washington, and Milwaukee,
counties, are the three strong-holds OF the
bogus Democracy Of the State. From Aii
Uaukee eminated the notorious Ryan Ad
dress, and these riots inresistanco to law
are the f.st bitter fruits of that traitorous
production. Men who dare not come out
openly and advocate resistance to the draft
have installed into tie minds OF more
ignorant class belief that the government
was pursuing an unconstitutional course
and fred them up to such . pitch that
omen violence has been the result i
thousand pities that the punishment couil
not fall upon the instigators OF the rash
acts Of deluded men.

8set0ate Of CsoDelo Iowa fos 49,
Mr.. Duane Wilson, Secretary Of the
Agricultural College, gives the follow
ing estimsts Of the crop for 1862:
Acres, 1851, I, SOC, 600, average Weld
IL bushels per acre; total yield IL, l a"c.
900 bushels. Acres this year l,6oo'oov;
average yield IL bushels for spriog' anu
20 busqels for winter. The estimate 'o'
this year will be ~ follows:
1900, 900 acres spring wheat at IL :. 10000
bushels per acre
100000 asess vintsr whsss, q ~ .afn 900
bushels pr sers.. ........''''''''''.-.-- --
Total in bsshsls.. 80. 49, 1870
N, Wilson thinks the truth will make
tho total nearer 100000 bushels,
most Of which will be for export . ne
th;nks there 10 enough within the State
to supply home van'' to the next mar
vest.
The increase of acres in corn this
wear over 1861 he estimates At twenty.
Eve per cent. 10 1851 the number OF
acres was 100000. To be WIND
bounds he only adds $4,000, acres.
If the season continues favorable the
Weld may safely be estimated at nifty
bushels per acre, making 90 aggregate
of e,225, 900 bushels and 100000 IN
excess of 1861. The yield may reach
the enormous amount of 1905 900
bushels.
OTHER CROPS.
Oats are reported better than last
year. The crop be estimates at 10000.
900 bushels. Rye has been cultivated
more extensively this year than before
a. q forage crop. No estimate. Hay,
principally cut from the prairies, he cs-
inmates at 1,00o,00 tons. Sorghum ne
puts the same 40 last years, 900, 900
gallons. Potatoes so per cent. more
acres, and yield SO per cent. more to the
acre.
He estimates the total number Of cat
tie, including those not returned by the
Assessor. at 100000. Probable num-
Der OF cows, 100000. The number to
be exported in 1862, he estimates at
$4,000. Number reported sold BY
census returns of 1858 was 14l, LAG, at
au aggregate value Of $2,950, LIT, .
fraction over $40 per head.
HOGS.
The number returned by Assessors at
the lst Of January was 947 ,4s9 over six
months old. The probable number for
market next Fall and Winter he esti-
mates at ,42l, 2s3, average net weight
less than two hundred pounds. De-
Quoting 100000 for home consumption
and breeding, the State will have for ex-
pottation about 100000.
The number Of sheep returned BY the
Assessors from all the Counties except
six, was 32O,7O7. For those not report
ed, the Census of 1860 gave 27,472.
The increase may make the total $780,
900, and be thinks that number we're
shorn this year. with an average
fleece OF three pounds. He thinks the
number next year will reach 100000.
HORSES.
By the Assessors returns, and estima-
ting for SIX or eight counties, the total
number Of horses is 237 900, and Of
mules 5000.

We do not exactly comprehend the
the matter ofthe resignation Of Govern
or Magoffiu of Kentucky, but the coun-
try will be rejoiced that he has resigned,
not only because Of the doubtful quality
of his loyalty, but because, with an ef-
icient and perfectly loyal Governor,
Kentucky will require less assistance
than formerly to protect herself. What
ever question there might be about her
attitude if radical emancipation policy
had prevailed at Washington, there is
no question about it under the temperate

Gov. CURTIN, Of Pennsylvania, thinks
there are enough disabled soldiers COM
petent to perform the duties Of asses
sors and tax collectors under the Unit
ed States revenue laws, and he advises
President Lincoln to appoint them.
The Governor is right, but he is be-
hind the times. AS a general thing
these disabled soldiers are not poli,i-
clans. They are generally modest men.
and do not press their claims. The pol
iticians on the contrary, ure constantly
on the alert for chance to gobb!e up
all the little crumbs, and they would
rush over the disabled soldiers body to
get even the most paltry appointment.
Disabled soldiers stand 10 more chance
with them In the matter of obtaining
office than does a cat in the internal re.
glons without claws.
