Gov. Baker and the Prize Fighters.

One of the most creditable acts that
a Governor Y e performed in the
Ordinary routine of executive duties,
was his order to the Sheriff of Dear
born County to spare nc pains In ar
resting McCoole and COburn, who had
come hundreds of miles with the
assorted roughs of all the country to
break the laws of that State. 1t is
not often that a Governor or a Sheriff
is disposed TO interfere In behalf of
law when a considerable number of
people are interested In its violation.
Governor Baker, however, was decid-
ed In the determination that Indiana
should not be made rallying ground
for the mob, and his instructions
to the Sheriff were emphatic to.
prevent such dissertation of his terri
torial jurisdiction.
For this he has the thanks of every
friend of morality and good order.
As was to be expected, Gov. Baker is
im%portuned from high quarters to
order the release of these heroes of
the rowdy class from the righteous
imprisonment 10 which Judge Wilson
sentenced them. We have for some
years noticed the operations Of sym
pathy for culprits who have friends,
while for those who have 40 friends
except among the very humble class,
the sentiment among the influential
has been, Hit him again; he's got
no friends, /" . Good enough for him.
&C., &c. Gov. Baker Is not Of such
stuff as can be moulded into weights
and measures-one for the poor and
another for the rich, one for the lowly
and another for the conspicuous
Cincinnati Times.
We are glad to observe that Cover
nor Baker, OF Indiana, stoutly resists
both the Establishments and the
threats of the friends of the distin-

Taking the whole country together,
there is every reason to believe that
the largest crop of wheat ever pro-
duced will gladden. the yhearts Of
farmers and business men, and slim
ulate trade as nothing else can. The
corn crop throughout the Southern
States will be larger thanever before,
but it is too early In the season to
form any intelligent opinion about
the crop In this West aud North.
CncjnnQa Gazette, 18th. l.,
The wheat crop in Southern In
diana never promised better at this
season of the year than at present.
The grain stands thick upon the
ground, and is entirely free from wee
vii. The weather is favorable for its
rapid maturity.
Oats and rye also promise a large
yield, and potatoes are coming on
finely. Large quantities of sweet po-
tatoes have been set out, and the
plants are growing satisfactorily.
The corn is coming up and growing
rapidly under the influence of the
warm and favorable weather, and will
no doubt yield as bonnteously as any
previous year. There will be a good
fruit crop-apples and peaches being
abundant in nearly all the orchards
of Southern Indiana.
With the harvesting of the growing
crops will come, we doubt not, more
activity in trade and less stringency
in the money market. Until th ~,
