THE HARVEST OF 1897.

From the Chlc8gO 1nbune, l0tn'
II is now an ascertained fact that the
crop Of wheat which has been gathered and
is now gathering in the United States is
generally the best which has ever been
raised in this country. The cotton, sugar,
rice and tobacco crop give promise of a
larger and a better yield than has been
known since 1860, while the corn gives an
assurance that it will exceed in amount
that Of any previous yield. There IL no
material blessing equalling in value this
general success Of all kinds Of agricultural
products. It's benefits are direct and reach
every human being in the land. The
breadth Of wheat sown this year in all
parts Of the country is greatly in excess of
any previous year, and the crop has reached
a successful harvesting more free from cas-
ualNes Of all kinds than has ever been
known. The wheat both winter and spring,
will be not only abundant but of a superior
quality. This will be cheering news to
consumers, and will Tighten the hearts of
thousands 10 whom bread has Of late been
almost a luxury. The fruit crop, Of every
kind, will be a large and fine one. We
have already enjoyed the smaller fruits,
which have been both plenty and Of a good
quality, while the apple and peach crops
promise like abundance. 1t is true that
in some portions Of the Mississippi Valley
the cotton and sugar plantations have
suffered seriously from the overflow Of the
rivers, bat, Notwithstanding this fact, the
general crop in those articles will be at
least equal TO that Of 1860. All over the
Southern States there has been ahis year an
unusual attention paid TO the growth Of
cereals, and this fact will not only relieve
the districts which have been distressed 10y
the want of food, but will indicate to those
people the value and importance Of APP
plying the hand Of productive industry 10
the whole soil, in a variety of crops, in
stead Of hazarding all things upon the sue
cess Of n single product.
The aggregate value OF the general crop
Of the United States may be estimated by
taking that Of 1860 as a standard of an
average yield. In that year the yield Of
the leading articles was as follows:

These figures show the extent Of the crop
OF 1850. That was seven years ago, since
which tame the breadth of land devoted to
agricultural products has been vastly in
creased in ali parts OF the North. The
prices Of all these products have advanced
somewhat An estimate of the value of
the crop of 1867 may be reached by adding
TO The amount produced in SEQ, Except of
cotton and sugar, forty per cent, and COM
putting the increased quantity by the ruling
prices The vast sum produced by this
calculation is 20 much actual wealth added
TO the national capital il is a contribution
by nature TO the industry Of the people; it
is the product of the labor Of the agricul-
tirist Ii will do much TO relieve the
finances Of the country, and will relieve
the money market Ii will be Of special
value TO the people of the South. They
have had little or no money since the war;
they have not been able 10 employ the labor
they wanted because they had not the
money TO pay for it. An abundant crop
will place money in their hands, with
which they can recruit their stock, and
employ good labor at the wages Of good
laborers. Labor being paid for according
10 its value, the condition and industrial
habits of the freedmen will be directly
benefited.
Between the first Of July and the first Of
November thisyast volume of actual wealth
will be added to the national capital, il
represents so much gold, but is more in
dispensable than gold
The abundance Of the crop in the articles
we have mentioned contributes also 10 a
like increase in countless other articles.
The grass crop Of this year, which, perhaps,
will surpass any Of its predecessors, indi-
Gates an increase Of pasturage, and conse-
qnently of fat beeves and other live stock.
The corn crop points 10 an immense adj
dition 10 the number Of hogs 10 be slaugh-
tered. The products of the garden show
the general bounty of nature, and from
countless sources will be added the coutri-
buttons from the crop Of 1867 10 the aggre-
gate wealth Of the country.

From the Henderson Reporter.
In his speech before the meeting Of citi-
gens ON Friday last, General Boyle ex-
planned the condition and prospects Of the

Meeting with this road, promised, are relied
ON with confidence for S650O00, making
81 .625 900, which, with the securities Of the
company, will be sufficient 10 complete and
eauip the road for the first years business
General Boyle expressed the fullest conf
deuce in tie ability of the company 10
complete the road, but lis completion
thsoaeh wonld be delayed by reason OF the
subscriptions having been made At later
date than was contemplated, and the failure
of parties 10 take bonds as expected.
81 the $780, 900 Of the bonds Of the city
of Henderson, 100000 were promised 20
be taken here. This pledge had been
made as we understand, and this expecta-
ton held out here, and il had been relied
on. The work had progressed slowly, ana
