Tue CRoPs OF THE CoUNrRr.-The BIZ
monthly report of the Agricultural Depart
ment says the rains which have recently fallen
have dispelled the fears which we're entertained
for the fall crops. In regard to the corn crop,
the returns show that on the first day of Au.
gust, in Illinois, the great corn.producing State
Of the country, It's condition was an average
one; in Iowa, two tenths above such average;
In Indiana, three and one third tenthS below;
In Ohio, one and one half tenths below; in
Wisconsin, one half tenth below. But, taken
into consideration the effects Of the rains which
have recently fallen, there is nothing to justify
aprrehenslons OF scarcity In any of the great
cereal products. It is believed that the loyal
States will have produced enough for abundant
home consumption, and to supply the usual
foreign demand for our cereals. There will be
q considerable increase of the sorghum crop; a
decrease of tobacco; flax and beans largely in-
creased. The grain crop has been unusually
well secured, and ton of It this year is estl-
mated as equal to ton and half of last years
product. The wheat crop Is excellent in quail
ity, and thus far reduces its loss to between 70
and IA per cent. below the crop of 1868, one OF
| the largest ever grown In this country. These
accounts are made up from returns from every
part of every State. The October report will
show exactly what the crops Of the year have
been. The only crop about which there is any
doubt is that of potatoes. The weather Is now
favorable to their growth.

EVERY such victory as that of Sherman
brings us nearer peace; because 1t forces upon
the South the propriety of submitting TO terms
of e.union.-Al6lRy Argus.
True; and yet upon the very day on which
Gen. Sherman planted his army in the position
which gave him that victory, party conyen-
ton, assembled at Chicago, was buse, coward
y and traltorous enough to demand an i'm.
mediate cessation of hostilities," as the only
way Of getting peace. Had that party, on that
day, had the power to enforce the demand
which 1t made for an "immediate cessation of
hostilitles," the victory which "brings us
nearer peace" would not have been won.
Thanks to Sherman, and Grant, and Farragut,
and the good God who blcsses their arms, VIC
are being brought near to peace, In spite OF the
party of peace traitors.

A SEVERE BLOW AT mooLELLAN.

The National Lptelligsncer, Of this morning,
closes the leading editorial with the following
hard hit at Mcclellan. The italics are ours:
On the one hand Is Abraham Lincoln; on the
other is George B. Mcclellan. Each has made
up for himself the issues and the record on
which he challenges the popular ordeal. 1t is
for the people to choose bcswcen them, and In
choosing to decide whether the Union is the
paramount object OF the nations aspiration In
the present struggle, or whether the destlnies
Of the Union are to be complicated with pledges
and commitments which we verify believe must
be as fatal to Its practical restoration as in
theory they are alien to the spirit and letter OF
the Constitution.
VIII the htelligeneer please inform us what
1t means by "pledges and commitments"
Has Mcclellan sold himself in advance to Sam
Barlow, or to August Belmont, the agent of
the Rothschilds and nephew of slidell We
await an answer.

ANOTHER MEETING OF THE PER

DEMANDED.
Lsp.slnI pI.patch 20 the ntpubllesn.

Especial Dispatch to the Republican,
New YORK, Sept. 1O.-The following is an
extract from the Daily NspS' article;
George B. Mcclellan was nominated upon
platform that promises an immediate cessation
of hostitlties and convention Of all the States.
Does he stand upon that platform today He
docs not.
He has denounced the platform in his letter
accepting the nomination. 1t Is as If the
bridegroom should accept the BRIDES property
but not her person. A bond like that is null
and void. The peace party will not consent to
have their principles betrayed and they do
homage to the betrayer. They demand all that
Is nominated In the bond. Gen. Mcclellan,
having rejected the proposition for cessation
of hostililes and a convention Of all the States,
declined the Chicago nomination, and stands
before the people self.nominated, on plat
form of his own creation.
The Democracy must seek candidate who
will stand upon the platform, for they cannot
consistently support one who Is in collision
with the convention that rendered him the
nomination. If the platform accords not with
the nominees conviction of right, due re-
spect for the opinions of the assemblage that
unanimously adopted it requires that he should
give back to the convention the standard oi
the Democracy.
The Democratic National Convention is no
dissolved, 1t is ready to convene at the call o
Its executive committee; and If Gen. Mcclellan
cannot abide by the resolutions through whicl
the principles Of the party have been enunci
atod, let the convention reasscmble, and ethe
remodel their platform to suit their nominee
or nominate candidate to suit the platform.
