The Grain Products of the Country.

There is scarcely a doubt that the
grain product OF the country at large
will constitute a supply of the prime
necessities of life, ample for all wants
of consumption and commerce. The
great bulk Of the wheat crop has al
ready been secured in excellent con
dition, and the united testimony OF
our Western exchanges is, that what
ever deficiency there may be in guam
tlty will be made up in quality.
Even the farmers, who are proverbial
"croakers," seem to be abundantly
satisfied with the result of their la
bors. The Commissioner of Agricul.
ture thinks the crop will be an ave-
rage of eight and II half tenths in
quantity, and Of a quality that will
make it fully equal in value to last
years crop. An Ohio correspondent
makes an elaborate approximate esti-
mate of the cereal crops, and mas
much as his deductions arc made
principally from personal observation,
his views are entitled to some consi-
dcration. He places the wheat crop
of the country us follows: 1860, 1873. :
104, 1921 bushels; 1866, 1S5, 1874, 600.
At the ratio of increase in the wheat
crop from 1SAO to 1865 per cent.
year-it IS argued that We should
have 225, 134. 900 bushels rs the vie,
for 1866. The estimated yield o;
corn this year is set down at LOCO,
600, 900 bushels. against $50, 100, $40
IN 1860, as ascertained by the decen-
mai canvassers. Such a crop, it is
calculated, would alone support So
600, 900 people, and all the cattle ne
cessary for their meat and butter
The world has never seen anythin Q
III agriculture ut all equal to this
The fact that this staple product is
rapidly working its way into popular
favor IN Great Britain, is al the more
gratifying, in view Of it's steadily in
creasing production in this country.
The strength OF this branch OF agri-
cultural country lies in the Central
West, and there it Will no doubt re-
main for the next century ut least.
The ont crop of 1866 is estimated at
zoo, 200, 900 bushels, against 172, $780,
722 IN 1850. The rye and barley
crops are expected to be in excess Of
any previous year, while root crops
give promise OF great abundance.
Here, in brief, is an exhibit of the
situation, as far Us concerns the sup
ply>of home products essential to the
subsistence Of the masses, and no out
cry OF scarcity, raised for sinister
purposes, can do away with the sub
stantia' facts upon which we predi-
cate Year of plenty, if not of low
prices. What the prospects are likely
to be for M outlet for our surplus
crops, it is yet too carly to Judge
with any degree Of certainty; though
with peace and abundant crops in
Europe, the foreign demand for Amc-
rican brcadstnifs, it would seem,
muct continue to be very limited,
thus nccessitating their consumption
chiefly by or own people.

THE president AS AN ECONOMIST. =

IHE president AS AN ECONOMIST. =
The 1nnes, of Monday, in stating the
different positions Of the President
and Of Congress with regard to cx-
travagant expenditures. remarks that
the people may be divided touching
the course to be pursued toward the
South, but ihey are united with re
ference to the reduction of the ma
tional expenditure. They are heartily,
earnestly, Getcrmincdly in favor OF
retrenchment; and they are not likely
to forget that, while Congress-, during
the recent session, evinced an indif-
ference to the necessities of the Trca-
sury, and lent itself to schemes OF an
cXtravagant nature, the Administra-
ton has steadily cXertcd itself to keep
down expenditure, and, as far as pos
slble, to repair the waste engcndcrcd
by the war.
In all that concerns rctrcnchment,
then, the facts are in favor of the
Administration and against Congress.
For whatever saving has been accom-
pllshed, the country may thank the
Administration. For resistance to
further saving, and for proceedings
which entail heavy additions to the
load OF taxation and debt, the coun-
try is indebted exclusively to Con
Grcss.

Scstive will attract the attention of

ESaLASD.-Up to the time OF the
departure of the Java, there has been
no further disturbance of the peace
IN London, although reform meetings
were continually being held.
A serious misunderstanding had
arisen between the Home Secretary
and the Reform League latter
body contending that Mr.. Walpole
conceded permission for one meeting
III Hyde Park, on the understanding
that no repetition should be attempt
cd until the question Of right is set
tlcd-whlle the Secretary denies Civ
inS any such consent. Earl Derby,
IN the House of Lords, cmphatically
declared Government had not con
sented to any meeting being held in
any OF the royal parks; on the con
trary, they coulr not sanction it, but.
at the same tim, they were willingto
afford every facility for trying the
question of right, and would make
no objection to meeting on Prim-
rose Hill or other appropriate spot.
He hoped, after this warning, the
projected meeting for Jaly 30, in
Hyde Park, wonid be Abandoned:
otherwise, the responsibility would
rest on those who called the meeting.
MIR. Walpole made similar explana-
ton to the above in the House of
Commons.
At meeting held by the Reform
League, it was resolved to abandon
the project of meeting in the park.

Marrying school-,narms.
The Richmond Times SAYS:

A new feature begins to character
ize the inundation of New England
school-marms in the South. There
have recently occurred instances of
their picking out and marrying the
well-to-do negroes, who will have
them. The recent marriage of Miss
Sarah Jones, Yankee school-marm
IN Mobile, to wealthy negro named
Samuel Jackson, will undoubtedly
have most stimulating effect upon
no inconsiderable portion of the New
England school-marm element. At
the present moment Mrs. Sarah Jones
jackson is probably the object of the
great envy by many of those desolate
and ugly old maids and spinsters who
figure rs delegates to anti-slaverv
conventions. The desire for positic
down South, as school-marms, may be
at once expected to rise to fever heat.
Rich negroes will be in great demand
among these romantic: and philan-
thropic ladies Of itinerant dispositions
with tastes like Desdemona.
Our exchanges seem to think it is
undecided whether the unhappy
jackson is more to be pitied for get
ting the school-marm, than the
school-marm is to be congratulated
IN getting the darkey. There is no
doubt that Miss Sarah has done well:
but how is it with the negro? We
deeply sympathize and condole with
him. A Massachusetts spinster who
has been rocking the ''Cradle of
Liberty" at Fancuil Hall, is rarely
fit for anything else
There is one blessed idea connected
with these miscegenation cases, and
1t is this-the negroes still retain the
ancient practice Of logging their
wives whenever they think they
deserve it, and all the humane efforts
of the Freedmen's Bureau have
proved unavailing to abolish this cx-
cellent old English custom, now more
to be commended than ever, since
school-marms are to receive it's bcne-
fits.
There is one consoling reflection
connected with these abhorrent al
llances-hybrids are short rt-lived. Per-
haps this is one Of the means adopt
ed by the North for the extermi-
nation Of the negro, in conjunction
with other active agencies now busilv
at work. Cuffee should, therefore,
regard every school-marm as u syrcn
Turing him to destruction.
