The Wheat Crop.

1t is folly to disguise any longer. the
unwelceme fact, that the wheat is a fail
ure.-Wc stated the fact last winter that
the sudden cold about New Years had
frozen the roots OF the wheat, and thus
destroyed ,he crop. AT the time we made
the statement we did not suppose the
damage done extended over SO large an
area oicountry. Subsequent information
went to prove that it extended over the
whole West-worse in some locations, of
course. than in others.
The reason why SO many people were
deceived and sill hoped, was that they
Judged from ordinary appearances, which
frequently proved deceptive, after hard
winter, when wheat supposed to be what
is called winter killed, revived on the
opening spring But the cold of last
winter, at one dash, killed the roots of
the wheat by actually freezing them.
The weather had been mild, even warm
and moist. The roots were tender, ex :
posed, and growing. Itwas 50 warm, as
one Of our farmers expressed it, that the
horses sweat in the stables The wind
was blowing strong from east-south- east,
and the warm rain, about dark, poured
down in food This aided in exposing
the roots to the air. At this time there
was coming from the north west, storm
OF cold aud snow, more intense in its char
actcr and greater in its dimmensions than
often occurs.
These two storms faced each other, and
kept the lines ofseparation so close upon
each other, that when the weight OF cold
got the mastery, it was less than an hour,
when its whole intensity struck every ten
der tree and root with almost instant
death. In our whole life we could only
recollect one or two similar instances, aud
this was why we pronounced the wheat
kilied-frozen. and declined to put much
confidence in the predictions that the
spring would revive, and bring it ou;
again
The farmers in this. Franklin county,
give much more gloomy accounts OF their
prospects of late than they did some weeks
ago. April has been untavorabie and
disheartening to the farmer in every re-
spect and 1t is the opinion OF some of our
best judges that there will be very little,
it1any more wheat gathered than was sown
last fall. Thousands Of acres of wheat
sowed land are being ploughed up to
plant in corn. Everything now depends
on the corn and potato crops. and what
buckwheat may be sown. This latter
crop, at best. is uncertain in this region,
and the scarcity and the high price of seed
will eonfne the crop to a few compara-
tive acres. GO
ANYTHING like a crop Of fruit is inn
possible, There may be apples, but even
that is not yet settled
THE oat crop will be small from the
fact that during the proper season for
sowing 1.-THE rains kept The ground un-
lit to work, and seed being scarce and

institutions Of the South. Can any man
of sense deny thisf
The passions of the Southern people
are kept constantly inaamed by reviving
the memories of the wrongs they believe
themselves to have received at the hands
Of the Abolitionists. The fact is kept
glaring before their eyes and ringing in
their ears that the party in power got its
position because of its hostility to them
and their institutions. Can they hope to
make satisfactory peace with such par
tyr
Let the Southern people be assured that
they will be justly dealt with in the Union,
and JEFF. Davis will soon be without an
army. The best assurance that can be
given them is the election ofa Democratic
President. A victory of the Democratic
party in the next presidential election
will do more to restore the Union than
all the victories of the war. a hundred
thousand tiues sacrificed IN fighting ,oiH
ressh IN less progress totoord Union than
a hundred thousand votes for Democrat
&c President. Let every man, soldier and
citizen, reflect we'll upon this; and ask
himself in the name Of his country what
is his dutyf
Fl Democratic administration can at
tain the same end, and save the lives of o
hundred thousand Of our people, is he q
patriot, or is he good citizen who will
sacrifice this hundred thousand lives
NEARLY that his party may have the spoils
and plunder of Officer
IF all fighting and negotiations fail to
bring about restoration, who can obtain
the best terms of peace2 For the same
reasons as in the other case, the answer
must be the Democratic party.
Thus, in either event, whether the war
be successfully or unsuccessfully prose-
euted, it is incontrovertible that the best
interests of our country and humanity
require the election ofa Democratic pres
ident.

Concentration tIae order of
the Day.

Grant has taken measures to add num-
bers enough to the regular armies ia the
field to make them irrssistabls. Concen-
tration is the order of the day. The
troops are now massed upon such routes
the Lieutenant General believes will
lead to vital strategic points OF the rebel
lion. Instead OF being discouraged at the
apparent weakness vi our forces in Ten
nessee, Kentucky. North Carolina aud
elsewhere, the country should be encour-
aged by the real fact that our forces are
massed against points and armies of much
more Importance. When the next shock
of battle comes, it will fad the Union
armies in stronger force than they have
ever been before 1t is the rebels who
are now pursuing the scatteration policy.
Hence the recent successes in unimpor-
tant quarters.

pitt, u moment.- World.

TIE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN
DOLLARS AND HEADS.

A gentleman offered to bet thousand
dollars that by connting the names otthe
voters instead of the number Of dollars,
Mcclellan would he largely ahead for
the sord. 4 rcd5faced man got excited
over this, and shouted "Well, I'll bet
you he hasn't ''but on opening his purse
it was discovered that he only had Eve
dollars in it. 1t may be remarked that
the gentleman would have won his bet,
for although the grccnbacks of the loyal
leaguers have given the sword to Grant,
there is much larger prop, rtion OF
