THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.

Correspondents Of the Chicago Tribunal
ROCKFORD, H., July 7, 1864.
A trip through Wisconsin and Northern
Illinois enables me to report reliably rela-
tive to the prospects of crops, which may be
Of interest to your readers. Through nearly
this whole section of country the drought has
proved seriously injurious. Grass Ia very
light. Oats, in many places, perfect fail
ures Wheat, in most cases, Is very short and
thin, and cannot produce more than half q
crop. Potatoes can afford but light yield.
Corn is the only crop from which We canex
pect good return. Although the growthis
small at this date, the color Is good, and,
with favorable July, August and septem-
her, will probably be an ne can now reason
ably hope for. With this view, compared
with other reasons, it stands to the interest
OF every farmer to harvest and secure every
thing truga1ly, and to grow every item Of
produce which yet can be produced. Tur-
:nips win In some degree supply the place Of
pose of other grains to some extent. There
Is no better feed for sheep and cows, and for
horses In limited quantities it is beneficial
Let our farmers SOFT largely Of this grain,
and they will be rewarded for their labors.
It affords o better yield generally, and
quicker return proportionately, than any
olneI crop. 1l eau ne 60Wn Win Bucce5s aS
late as the 24th inst. The rains that have
fallen lately in most OF this section has, In
measure, frightened the hopes of the farm.

The greatest crowd Of people ever assem-

ceEs'on formed promptly at II o'clock, and
marched to the public square, where after
the usual exercises, the Hon. j. D. Ward OF
Chicago, 1i'ited the attention Of that yast
assembly for near two hours, and It is the
universal expression Of all loyal men that It
was the most able, eloquent, and telling ad-
dress ever delivered In our county.
His arguments on the cause, progress, and
final issues Of the rebellion were full and un-
ansEerable, and the ability with which he
handled the financial questions connected
thoroughly posted on this theme, but Is q
inancier Of more than ordinary ability.
Our people are IN e1tacies over this mas
terly address,, and universal request was
made, that HI. Wurd should permit its pub
Hcation, which, after much hesitation, he
consented to-. Every loyal man should most
certainly read it.
After The address grand free dinner was
given to all returned soldiers By the Ladies'
independent Sanitary Association, after
which mammoth cake, gotten MP in the
most superb style Was presented to the mem.

to the talsity Of this charge. Being native

By The young. Well do remember, when a
mere boy, going with other little children to
the old '1ady's humble dwelling and being
charmed with her oft-repeated stories.
Governor johnson has inherited from his
reyered mother those peculiar traits of char
actcr that hare made him marked NM, and
elevated him to the distinguished position he
row occupies-yiz: an unusual strength Of
native talent, sound common sense, indomit-
able perseverance,, and honesty. "As the
