Southern Crops.

During a jaunt into the country,
the other day, we noticed a num-
Der of farmers busily engaged in
harvesting their wheat, and we
heard that much of the early or
May wheat was materially injured
and prematurely ripened by the
rust One farmer told US lie
thought his crop of early wheat
hardly worth the trouble of cut
ting and threshing, and that a
number of his neighborS Jared no
better than himself. AS a general
thing, the Mediterranean and other
varieties of late wheat look well,
and promise large yield. So
that, should the remaining portion
of Middle Tennessee do no better
than the limited extent of territory
to which our observation was con-
fined, there will be plenty for home
consumption, and some to spare to
others less favored than ourselves.
The intelligence from the States
further South is to the effect that
the wheat crop which is already
harvested to a great extent has
been seriously dlmaged and cut
short = some accounts say fully
one-half--by the rust. Wheat and
flour are enormously high in the
South at this time, and, should
these accounts prove true, there
will undoubtedly be suffering a.
mong the people of those States
for bread, unless the corn crop
should prove enormously large,
for it Is doubtful whether the
poorer classes have the money with
which to purchase if their markets
could be supplied. With short
crop of wheat and no cotton, their
case is truly a hard one.-NaSh0ilIe

Three Months Troops.
To the P,OpLe of Ohio:

A prompt and gallant response
has been made to the call for
three months men. Over two
thousand have gone to the field,
and another regiment will soon be
ready, leaving an ample force,
about two thousand, for State
guard duty. But / must advise
you neither of the five regiments
authorized ter three-yeats or sdrr;
ing the war is yetfull. Recruiting
officers have been appointed in the
several counties, and l have now
to invite your hearty cooperation
in filling up these regiments, to
secure which it is deemed only
necessary to assure you that our
Government stands in immediate
need of this force. Arouse then,
fellow citizens, and thus enable
Ohio to maintain her proud posi-
tiM in the good work Of Gushing
out the unholy rebellion.

What Our English ForJatherI
thouaht Of W0mqn's Deceit.

The other day while reading an
old volume printed in ITO, we
came across the following, which
shows that our fathers of yore did
not appreciate the deceptive quail
ties OF the female sex. That year
an act was introduced into the
English Parliament to the effect
that "all women, of whatever age,
rank, profession or degree, whether
virgins, maids or widows, tha'
shall, from and after such an act,
impose upon, seduce and betray
into matrimony any Of His Males

incur the penalty now in force
against witchcraft and like misde
meanors, and that the marriage,
upon conviction, shall stand null
and void" If such an act were in
existence upon the statue-b books OF
this Commonwealth, how few mar.
riages would be legal! No doubt
the ladies reading the above will
loudly exclaim "Oh, the brutes p

Old Abe's Last Story.

An old friend from Springfield,
lately called to see the President.
"Lincoln," said he, "when you
turned out Cameron, why didn't
you turn out the rest Of your Cab

That" said the President,
"makes me think of something
that took place near home, in
Illinois. An old farmer had been
pestered with a colony of skunks
that deprecated nightly on his
poultry. He determined to be rid
of them, and finally succeeded in
getting them al in one hole, where
he could kill them at his pleasure.

SO The complexion of the next
session of Congress will be very
different from that of the present.
When it assemblies in December it
will include Union representatives
from every Southern State. Its
complexion will be Union through

A Singular Suit.

Charles Miller, the present pro-
pristor Of the TaImadge House, in
Lancaster, recovered a judgment.
this week, in the Fairfield COM
mon Pleas, for $500 and costs
against Mrs. Beldon, of Findley,
Ohio, formerly Miss Sarah Bope,
of Lancaster, tor breach of promise.
The case occupied the Court from
Thursday of last week to Tuesday
Of this week. when it'was compFo-
missed by allowing the plaintiff d,
Judgment for the 'above namail,
sum. All the correspondence be-
tween the parties was read, and
the case attracted considerable at
tention. This is the first instance
we know of in which a man recov-
cred damages against young lady
for breach Of promise, and it
establishes the doctrine that the
tender sex are also liable to be
mulcted in damages for that kind
ofinconstancy. y.--CSrcLspiNe Union.

THE FRENCH STANDING Army
The Paris correspondent of the
Courier des EtatiS Unis in his last
letter to that journal, says:
Lord Palmerston some time since
estimated, in Parliament, the
French army to be composed, on
the 1st of May, of about $4,000
men, of whom $4,000 we're under
arms, and 100000 in the reserve
The Moniteur, in a recent article,
corrects the noble lord by stating
the number of men under arms to
be 1000, and the reserve ITO, 900;
a difference between Lord Palmer
ston's estimate and the actual
number, of over 100000. Lord
Palmerston, however, recently cor
rected, to q certain extent, his
misHtntemeDts.

The Republican ORGANIZATION

As the whole Republican party
of New York last fall voted for
and elected Daniel S. Dickinson
Attorney General of the State, it
ia fair now to give the picture of
that party which Mr.. Dickinson
drew in November, 1860, in s
speech which he made at the
Cooper Institute, New York City.
He said:
"This organization, with many
elements of personal cleverness,
bodies evil to the best interests of
true freedom and humanity. 1t is
founded in sectional disturbance
its aliment is prejudice and passion
its efforts calculated to array
State against State, section against
section, man against man, brother
against brother - to destroy all
kindly relations and light up the
fires of sectional discord and strife,
to end in battles of blood. x
1t disturbs and embitters the social
relations-it breaks the bonds of a
common political faith-it blots
out the memories of the Ravolu-
tion-it destroys commercial inter-
ests and the interchange of trade
it degrades US as nation before
the envious monarchies of earth,
and deprives US of our 1 4Oherent
power to vindicate our rights-it
sows broadcast the terrible seeds
of domestic strife and passion, that
the people may reap in due season
a harvest of ashes and desolation."
That is not a very favorable
picture, but the election Of its au-
thor to a high Office looks as if
the people of New York believed
it to be true.-Cin. Eng.

Colonel Sir Percy Wyndham, of
the First New Jersey Cavalry, who
fell into an ambuscade near Har-
risonburg and was taken prisoner,
is the same who went to Washing

of his biography:
He was born of French and
English parents, at sea, on board
the ship of war Arab, in February,
1888, and is consequently 10 his
twenty-ninth year. He was taker
