PcTAToEs.-From present appearances
it would seem that the potatoe crop in
some part of this state is likely to prove a
failure. In some parts of this county we
are informed that the potatoe bugs have
destroyed the plants so effectually that
they have quit growing and the potatoes
will not mature In some fields the rot
has set in, and is rapidly destroying those
that the bug has permitted to grow.

The "SIrUArroN. ."--Tho Chicago Tri6ur {
takes the following view of the political as
pect in Ohio:
Looking the state Of Ohio all over care
fully, and making due allowance for any
bread -and-butter defections that may oc-
cur, we come to the conclusion that the
republicans will elect sixteen members OF
congress and the copperheads two, with
one district (Deanos) doubtful The re-
publican majority on the popular vote will
not fall much short of $4,000. The in
creased majority on the western reserve
will far more than make good any losses in
other portions of the state. The campaign
will be short, sharp and decisive, and the
Copper-Johnson party will come out of the
contest badly smashed"
