No Excitement but PIely.

Preaching that stirs US up to sense
of the pearl of men under the law, and
urges our responsibility in relation to it,
posses great power for time; but
these feelings quickly wear out. 1t is
impossible for even the best of people
to live long under the influence of an
excited conscience. They cannot bear
it great while. A reaction is sure to
come. What we need is to be brought
into a more fervent love of God, a more
overfowing JOY in the Holy Ghost,
more of that faith which feeds and resst
on Christ. Then the church viii have
food, not for forty days, but for forty
years.
We need an average level of feeling
and action many times higher than
that at present, where the feelings grow
out of higher class of christian ex-
perience, which does not wear out
These promote health, and never leave
the body and mind to that languor
which necessarily succeeds excitement.
They. keep up one spiritual tone, and
make Christian work hearty and con-
stant-a ''needs be" of the 'new man.

administrators of estates could drive-llke
prlnces-without much work, and saddle
all the burden on their agents and clerks
since we know that an official is bound
to be at his Office, unless sickness or
any other just cause should him;
but we, and every body else knows, that
an administrator of an estate, or even q
town agent, can postpone his duties from
day to day.
The "a~malgamation ofseveral Offices" Of
which the honorable member speaks, may
be a certain cure in his great economical
ideas; but let US ask this honorable mem-
Der, if he would like to work for moth
ing, and not have sufficient to live of in
these very hard and trying Times. Ills
political or state economy, We think,
will never benefit him nor The Island.
For example, let us see, and return to one
of the changes, that have been made, in
order to economist. One of these chang
es has however, had no good effect, we
believe; for we think the Upper Court
the Court Of AppeaI-costs the State row
much more than when this Court con
sisted Of three members. This is one OF
the economical measures, as far as 'high
officials" are concerned. Still, in ailud-
ing to the economy OF the State, we do
not alIude to the pension which the hon
cradle ex-chiefjudge, who retired with
so much honor and satisfaction, now en-
joys-a pension worthy of his merits and
long and faithful services of over 25
years.
With regard to the amalgamation Of
Offices, we beg 10 quote that honorable
members remark "iOr instance the Roy
al Trcasurer's with the office of the Col
lector of Customs" Is this not folly?
Could an accountant in a bank be made
manager, and act in both capacities? We
believe not And should any party. who
know better, we beg, earnestly, that his
statement and explanation, be made
known 10 the public. But, we will not
90 further, and will conclude with a few
remarks which His Excellency the Gov
ernor made. Here they are:
Gle did not consider an amal-amatlOn
Of the Office of the Collector Of Customs
in Christiansted and that of the royal
Treasurer advisable, which might create
greater loss TO the CuStoms-Dues than
what the saving of the amount Of a sala-
ry would be-"
Therefore, the representatives Of the
people in the Council ought to feel proud
that State economy is not so purely re-
~quisite, when no material benefit can ac-
crue therefrom.
These few lines may not be quite mad
equate TO the suggestion offered by the
honorable member and we trust may not
be considered entirely wrong.

Statements.

WASHINGTON, August 2.-The following
;: condensation Of the crop returns Tor
,.Iy received at the Department of Agri-
'. T"vrr has the Department been able to

Univ good crops since the establishment
n the statistical division.
% IITTlqf-The statistical returns for July
,row an Improvement in the condition of
r,;,.sr wheat over last year in every State
f.rr Texas, Nebraska, and Minnesota, the
siminntion in the latter case being but
wy cent. The highest Improvement is in
6r;o leo per cent: Georgia, sc; West
Zf-r;nia. IS: Tennessee, 70; Indiana, 81 ;
yc9,ucky, So; Michigan, So; Vermont,
., New Jersey, Is; New York, II.
Sing wheat was far less variable pro-
inc, Isst year, and there IS consequently
,s.S variation in the figures used in the
,.rscr, comparison. All the States, how
s.rsr. except Vermont, New York, and
PENNSYLVANIA, show an increase over last
ye,7.
70. three years past the product has
la,n about five bushels to each inhabi-
tlp,. The crop of 1859, if the census re-
.,-ns are correct, was but five and half
bushels TO each person. The promise Tor
HE present year is about six bushels.
P5tltoss.-The report of the acreage of
1o.atoes indicates larger area planted IN
grerv State, except Maine and New York.
The condition is also above an average,
with few exceptions, among which are
Ecw York, Ohio, and Indiana.
.SorGltpm.-Thc sorghum crop is general
" returned in comparatively poor condi-
ion, with lower figures than any other
crop. Ohio and Indiana indicate g def
cicncy in acreage of IA per cent, and in
condition Of 10 per cent. All the princi-
Al sorghum-growing States show similar

Tobacco is much like sorghum, manifest

From the Vienna Wanderer.
A communication from Warsaw relates
some strange facts said to have taken
place in the Polish city relative to the
death of the Emperor Macmillan. AT
the Official Club, banquet Of young Rus
slams and members of the Muscovite popu-
lation, It declares, was given, at which
Prince Azerbatoff, of St. Petersburg, pass
ing through Warsaw to Paris by Vienna,
proposed q toast in honor "of the con-
queror Of the audacious invader Of Mex.
leo, President Juarez." This toast had
been received with applause by the com
pany, composed of many generals and
counsellors of State. Several illusions
were also made to the peace which Juarez
was about to restore to his country after
having vanquished the rebels, who, like
insurgents of Poland, were upheld and
excited by foreigners also to the great
desire Mexico felt to establish good rela-
tions with Russia.
After the applause had somewhat sub
sided, General Baron Hanke, director Of
the Warsaw Theatre and administrator of
several Imperial places of amusement, rose
to explain to those present how it was that
Providence had reserved disastrous end
for the Emperor Macmillan. Among other
things, he said
"1t is well known that at the outset of
the Polish revolution this Archduke, in
concert with the Emperor Napoleon, had
cast his eyes On the crown of Poland; that
the Duke de Gramont had labored in that
sense at Vienna, and that Polish depu-
tation had already been formed to offer the
crown officially to Macmillan"
The General ended by asking what would
have become of the Archduke if, with the
view of conquering the crown of Poland,
he had got himself at the head of the in
surgents and been taken prisoner.
