TENNESaEE CROPS.

The prospects for wheat and corn are
generally good in Cooke and Sewer coun-
ties, so far as we had an opportunity of
observing. The people are hard at work,
and seem to be determined by hard and
constant Clicks" to retrieve their fallen
fortunes.-GreeneUilIe Union, 18th.
The HARvEsr-The farmers in Look
out and Wills Valley have been engaged
in cutting their wheat this week. Without
exception they pronounce the yield larger
and of finer quality than any harvest for
the last ten years.-Chattaaooga Union,
18th.
We regret to learn that the rust has
made its appearance upon the stalks of the
wheat in some portions of our county, and
although the damage up to this time has
not been very perceptible, yet some of our
farmers apprehend considerable suffering
to the crop. The rust has been upon the
blades of the wheat for some considerable
time, but did not reach the life-sustaining
qualities of the plant until within the last
week McMinnrIle Era, 18th.
The early wheat is now being cut, and
some of our farming friends inform us that
the yield in quality and quantity, is sll
they had right to expect.-FayetteCtae
Observer, 1871.
We hear of some little complaint
amongst our farmers, Of rust appearing IN
their wheat From what we can learn, it
has only got into the blade and has not 70
any great extent, affected the heads. If the
weather should be favorable another week,
we think a very fair crop will be raised in
this vicinity Cgaksuiiie Chronicle, 14h.
1t is with pleasure We announce that all
Of our exchanges continue to give the most
encouraging accounts of the cereal crop in
their respective section of country. In some
counties the fields OF golden grain are
already inviting the reapers to come with
their sickles. The heart of the farmer has
ample cause to be grateful for the reward
that has followed his labor, and we all
should Join in thanks 10 him who sendeth
the rain and the sunshine, in mitigation of
that primeval curse: "In the sweat of thy
face shalt thou eat bread, till thou return
unto the ground" In this county we can
report favorably upon the crops VIM

THE JUDICEARY-USUR Oh
THE GOVERNOR.
Editors Union and Dispatch

llutAoia Anipu ahu blhphAtu-
BY the 10th article Of our constitution the.
Governor is required TO take an oath TO
support the constitution of the State, be-
fore he can take upon himself the duties of
the office.
The sixth article Of the constitution, sec
ton third, provides that the Judges of
the Supreme Court shall be elected by the
qualified voters of the State at large, and
the Judges of such inferior courts as the
Legislature may establish shall be elected
by the qualified voters residing within the
bounds Of any district or circuit to which
such inferior Judge or Judges, either of
law or equity, may be assigned by ballot,
in the same manner that members of the
General Assembly are elected"
Now, how does it happen that, under
this oath and constitution, the Governor
deprives the people of the State from
choosing their own Judges? Peace has
been restored for two years, and but one
Judge has been elected by the people that
/ am aware of. Why give the people of
one circuit the liberty Of electing a Judge,
and withhold that privilege from all the
people Of the other circuits in the State?
The Governor assumes to himself the
authority Of appointing Judges for eight
years. Where does he get such authority
IL Isham c. Harris, while in Office, had
assumed and exercised such authority, the
Knoxville Wing would doubtless have de-
nounced him as a peruror usurper, and
petit tyrant.
Men are selected by the Governor TO sit
upon the lives, Liberties and property of
the people, who have, in many instances,
but little legal learning, and are known to
be bitter partizans. Strange as it may
seem, the organ of the Governor has her
aided forth the fact, that these Judges have
been doing glorious work for a certain poll
tical party. Have we not fallen upon evil
times?
If Governor Brownlow can hold the
Judiciary in his own hands, and under his
control, for full term of office, why can
not all his Successors do likewise? and thus
defeat the provision of the constitution,
above quoted, for all time 10 come. If he
can thus override and defeat the express
provisions Of the constitution, why not go
further and take the election of Senators
from the Legislature, and appoint them for
full terms
Much could be said upon this subject,
but it would be difficult to give ii justice,

He, with Capt Flood, a Federal Captain,

county strictly under the last act, and reg
istered about the same number that voted

(as understand the oligarchy call it, Mr..
Stewart was hurled from Office without the
least intimation of his unfaithfulness, and
another man, Mr.. Salsberry, an entire

For instance, the votes given in 1865, say
five hundred and over, the men who moved

what remained here Of the Federal soldiers
after the war, who are entitled TO vote,
are over one thousand, and the negroes who
are entitled TO certificates are over four
hundred which will foot up over one thou
sand voters. Now, what are the people to
do? Shall they set by with folded arms

If so, we are not worthy of the name we
bear from our forefathers, whose blood
ransomed our liberty. We do not advise
rash means; but quietly obey the laws OF

who is entitled TO a vote, receive a certiti-

New YORK, June 14-The Herald's
Rio Janerio correspondent of May 9TH,
says: The cholera was raging in Brazilian
camps on the river Platte, nearly seven
hundred men died in six days.
Two Thousand troops had been dispatched
to Corrients to retain the populaee from
destroying hospitals
General Uruguisso had ten thousand
men near Corrientes removed. He Dc
clared against the alliance in Buenos

The streets were filed with funerals and
people dying in peers about door steps and
everywhere crowds were rushing away and
every little hamlet in the interior was
crowded with refugees.
The Heralfs San Luis Potosi CORES
pondent of The 10th ult., says Tomorrow
Macmillan, Miremon, Meiia, and Castillo
may possibly be sentenced to be shot.
Macmillan offered to abdicate and use
his influence TO cause the immediate sur
render of Mexico and Vera Cruz, and in re-
turn he asked the lives and safe conduct
out of the country for himself, his general
officers and troops, and Generals Mejia and
Castillo. The proposals were rejected.
The Emperor, Miramion and Mejia were
placed in separate cells. A court martial
has been organized to try them. Tomorrow
the sentence is expected to be given, which
will, if IL is passed, undoubtedly be death.
Notice has been served upon the Presi-
dent Of the courtmartial that Macmillan
desires the jurisdiction Of the court on the
grounds of international law. 81 am a

power in the world except the United
States, and can only be tried by a legal
congress of nations" What the result will
be none ventures to predict.
1t is stated that the Loyal League last
night made another attempt TO expel
Horace Greeley, but failed.
The Worlds Albany special says it seems
that Cole, who killed Hiscock, had an ex-
citing time on the same day previous to
the tragedy, and that his wife's statement
was given under fears for her life. 1t also
appears that before Cole left Syracuse for
Albany, he left communication with the
reporter stating that he was about to do
something to Mr.. Hiscock that would create
great excitement, and asked for suspension
of public opinion.

LAWRENCE, Kansas, June 10.-Senator
Wade delivered a significant imprompth
speech to-day in reply to calls from crowd
of citizens in front Of the hotel where the
excursionists dined. He declared unequiv-
ocally in favor of female suffrage, Teitera-
ting views expressed in the Senate last
spring; declared that neither johnson nor
the devil could tempt Congress to desert
the people; said the Southerners now had
the mildest terms offered them they ever
would get, and that if they rejected them
the screw would be driven another turn,
and they would be compelled TO yield. The
Senator added that the shadow Of another
struggle was over us, that Congress which
has done so much for the slave cannot
quietly regard the terrible distinction
which exists between the laborer and the
employed ; property Is not tdrg di0ided, and
a more equal distribution must be wrought
out If you, dull heads, he said, cannot
understand this, the women will, and can
vasseTs upon the eve of an election will
have TO tell the laborers what they will do
for them. Men should not be compelled
TO labor until life is worn out and being Is
a curse, nor can this always be the case
here where every man is capitalist to
certain extent. These inequalities are not
felt as they are in the East; every man,
then, who was subject TO capitalist ought
to leave him and get two hours nearer sun
down forthwith. He (Wade) pledged him
self to advocate boldly and persistently the
natural rights of man, and predicted the
most important commercial results from
the completion of the Pacific road. He
was frequently applauded.
Hon. John Covode, of Pennsylvania,
followed in a few similar remarks, and
George Francis Train also made a speech.
