CRop Prospects. The Agricultural Bu-
reau at Washington have commenced the pub
ication Of statistics and estimates concerning
the growing crops, which, Il reliable, Wall
prove TO be OF public interest and utility.
It appears that Notwithstanding the war
there has been q very large increase IN The
amount Of land at the North put under cuIt'-
walton. Should the present promise OF the
harvest hold good, the heavy crops Of last
year will be largely increased this year Ihere
will be nnore winter wheat rye, corn, oats, po-
tatoes, sorghum, and cotton; and as large
crop Of spring wheat and grass. The excep,
lions 30 this rule are those states which are
rayaged by war, Kentucky for instance: and
Virginia. Ohio is also behind the promise OF
last year. The quiet Of the past sprung IN
Missouri has been improved by the farmers,
who have soWn largely.
4 striking increase this year Will be IN north
ern grown cotton and sorghum. Among the
states growing cotton are Minnesota and Mlch-
igan. In Illinois eight acres OF cotton have been
planted where one acre was last year; IN han-
sas the increase is nine-fold, and IN Indiana
double. Kentucky and Missouri Will also
double their product.
but the most IN pOrL2nC 1ncstas6 "1!i 20 IA
the growth Of sorghum. Last year the PEG
pie Of the Northwest in great measure dis
pensed With the n.olasses and syrup OF the
tropical sugar cane, but this year there IS
prospect that they will not On y have enough
for the home market but will be able TO send
some OF it East. AS yet there has not been
much sugar made from this product. 80 iar
the promise Of all the CROPS is excellent.

Dying for Love.

Dying for love is great mistake; what
ever may be your misfortune in an qfaire d.
ceur, "never say die" Ifyou must 90 some
thing in the dying line, dye your whiskers OF
your moustaches. That may hell the case
and is not so expensive. The following
"pome" tells very sensible story of an un
fortunate lover"
Distracted with care. for Phillis the fair
Young Damon, her lover. resolves in despair,
No longer to languish,
Nor bear so much anguish;
But, mad with his love, to precipice goes,
Where leap would soon finish his woes,
But, when he came there, beholding how steep
The sides did appear, aud the bottom how deep,
He sadly reflected,
That lover rejected
new love may get;
But a neck that's once broken can never be set,
And that he could live but as long as he could,
And that he could die whenever he would.
And how cruel soever his torments might grow,
He scorned to endea1 or to finish them so;
And then lie conclu-
Ded that he would not do
What he was going to 60 to do
Montreal Witness.
The Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1837-1867, 1863-01-30
As thew approach their adversary, they En-

As they approach their adversary, they en-
deavor to intimidate him. One would think
that it was easily done. That fearful sound,
those frantic eyes, glazing with the intelli-
gence and malignity of demon, were
enough to shake nerves not easily disturbed
from their equipoise. Our hero lost FIVE or
six men in these strange engagements
Think of the tremendous strength that, with
one blow of the arm, could crush the ribs
like pipe-stems, and tear out a piece of the
side; and with single jaw, could crush the
barrel Of a gun as if it had been a stick of
candy! Another fact: There are no lions
in the beat of the gorilla.

If MIR Darwins notion that the humane
race may have developed from the monkey
tribes had any scientific basis, it would be a
little humiiating that other branches from
the original stock have attained a higher de-
gree of physical strength than has fallen to
man. The gorillas are far more than match
for him, when unassisted by weapons:
DR.. Du Chailu is probably the first and
only white man who has dared to wage war
with gorillas. The apes of Borneo and
Sumatra are infants in comparison with them.
The far-famed chimpanzee is great docile
creature which can never be named in the
same day with the gigantic savage of Gen.
trail Africa Think oft! The gorilla is six
feet and two inches in hight, and three feet
between the shoulder blades. The paw is
that OF glant-three times the size of
human hand. The finger measures six
inches in circumference at the base. There
is an immense ridge running perpendicuarly
over the Uranium this and the great Jaws
are packed with muscle of prodigious
strength. The creature has huge arms al

the female always flies. When they make
their attack they beat their breasts with their
fists, making sound which can be heard a
mile. Their cry-which has terrific resem-
blance to human voice-can be heard
three miles amid the reverberations of the
hills.
