THE CIRcUs.-The)or crowd at Lipman's
Circus and Menagerie last night was
immense. Every-seat was filed, and
there was scarcely standing room for
the throngs that filled the Pavilion. 1t
is but just to say that the performance
was as huge as the crowd. All were
thoroughly delighted, and went home
well pleased with the evenings enter
tainment. 1t is seldom indeed that so
many attractions are embraced in
single show as have been consolidated
in the sextuple circus now exhibited.
The riding was very graceful and
daring, and in fact every feature OF the
exhibition was deservedly popular. Mr..
Eaton Stone, whose reputation as rider
pervades both continents, has lost none
of the agility that made him d favorite
with the Wheeling public many years
ago, and he is ably supported by other
artists of the company Go and see
them this afternoon or evening. The
tricks of Mr.. Stokes trained horse, or
Mr.. Wentworth's performances, are alone
well worth the price of admission.

THE CRoPs.-Notwithst the
long continued cold weather this spring,
and the consequent backwardness of
vegetation, the prospect for an abundant
yield of grain, grass and fruit was sell
dom better at this season Of the year
than it is now, and should the growing
crop of wheat receive no injury, the re.
turn Of this cereal this year will, in o
great measure, compensate for the failure
of the crop here last year. Some fears
have been entertained for the safety Of
the fruit, on account of the frequent
frosts which have, of late, visited this
section, but we learn that little injury
was done by them, except in some low
aud damp localities, where the peach
blossoms have sustained slight damage.
The prospect for a good crop of apples
was seldom better in this neighborhood.
This is highly gratifying, as this crop
has, for { number of years, been an
almost total failure in this country.
From the West, we see it stated that the
wheat crop this season will be fully mp
to the average.

A Test Case.

THE military Government of Texas is Withdrawn
by proclamation of the President. We could
ask no more complete refutation of the couser-
vatve doctrines in regard to the States lately in
rebellion than is furnished by this instance.
Not single principle which they call vital but
what has been completely trampled under foot
III the reconstruction of this State. We would
ask thoughtful men to go back over the success
sive steps by which the original State Govern
ment OF Texas was overthrown by the Presidents
military Government put in its place; a cOnVen-
ton finally called to create new State Govern
ment; this new Government at last set up and
the military Government withdrawn--and see
how far he can reconcile all these acts with the
absurd and monstrous doctrine that the late
Rebel States have been all the time in the Union,
lost none of their rights by the Rebellion, and
are entitled, therefore, TO immediate and uncon-
ditional representation in Congress9

POLAR Ice AND THE GULF STREAM.--M. CHAD,
in letter read before the French Academy ON
the Polar Ice and the Gulf Stream, expressed
the opinion that the stream keeps up It's iden-
tty as far as the north Of Siberia, and only loses
itself IN the Polar Basin. He contenGed that
he Pole is by no means always occupied with
ice, and that as the waters OF the Gulf Stream
keep themselves open in the spaces OF the ella.
ca seas which they traverse, it is in the prolon-
gation of that current between the Spitzbergen
Group and Nova Zembla that we ought to look
out for the easiest route by which to arrive at
the Arctic geographical Pole.

Library in Paris to check the extensive system

the library were found In his possession. During
last December fifty volumes are known to have
been stolen from the library, and how many
more cannot be discovered yet. Volumes four
times stolen have been four times purchased and
placed in the library, and, after all, have been
stolen again,

The Age this morning, with an attempt at
sarcasm, remarks;-
1--WE understand that General b. r. BUTLER
has been elected delegate from New Orleans
to JACK HAMILTON's Convention, winch is to
meet in this city on the Sd OF September"
There is more truth than fiction in such a
proposition. After the experience of the last
few weeks at New Orleans, we do not doubt but
that the selection of General b. F. BUTLER
would be the very one in which the true
Unionists would most heartily concur. How
many times they have prayed to God for the
presence of BUTLER, the Almighty only can tell.
But one thing is sure, that had he been there
forty murders would not have been consum-
mated in broad daylight, and with diabolism
only psralleled in the French Revolution.

The Testimony of General Lee.

In our paper to-day will be found the testimony
of General ALFRED L. LEE, of Kansas, in regard
to the New Orleans massacre, OF which he was
an eyewitness. General LEE was one of our
braveet cavalry officers during the war, and held
the Office of Judge of the Second Judicial Circuit
in Kansas at the commencement of the Rebel
lien. He is a man of high character, and his
testimony can be relied on as correct
