The letter of resignation of Commissioner Rollins
to the Secretary of the Treasury, resgnng his office,
to take effect when his is qualified, is made
public. He states, as for his resignation
that after the Philadelphia Convention there were
numerous removals of Assessors and Collectors of
Internal Revenue throughout the country for political
cons ideratons which proved sad blow to the rep
utation and efficiency of the service. They were
made regardless of his wishes as Commissioner. He
would have resigned long ago, but had yielded to the
judgment of his friends, who thought the public in
terests would be promoted by his remaining in Office.
All nominations since had been made without refer
to his opinion of their fitness, and his recommen-
dations for removals, for the gressest nscon-
duct, have been almost universally disregarded. As

to be made responsible for their failures, although
absolutely powerless to prevent them. He closes
with acknowledgment Of the personal and official
kindness of the Secretary toward him.

THE CROPS.

The general report in regard to growing crops is
very favorable The threatened danger from rust to
wheat, which we heard so much of in Tennessee and
Northern Alabama short time ago, was greater in
anticipation than realization The crop in that section
has been to a considerable extent harvested. The
The yield is good and the quality said to be excellent
Reports from Georgia say that the rust being con-
fined to the blade viii not hurt the grain. About an
average crop is hoped for. Some farmers have al
ready begun harvesting. Corn everywhere looks
splendid, and great deal has been planted. One
third less cotoa has been PLANTED this year than last
but good crop is promised. From Virginia and
Maryland the report is that the whea, presents fine
appearance. t
The report through our exchanges from Ohio, Ill
;nois Iowa, and the tar West and Northwest, give
very encouraging statements. Everything seems to
indicate an abundant summer harvest and bountifu
and fruitful autumn.

CHICAGO STYLE.-A few weeks ago an Iowa grain
dealer during declining state Of the wheat market
in Chicago telegraphed to his agent in that city to
sell his grain then on hand. The dispatch sent
on Saturday, but from some unexplained reason did
not reach the agent until Monday during which time
wheat rose twenty cents on bushel, when the agent
sold the wheat and charged up the sale having
Cured on Saturday, and pocketed the difference
Iowan followed the dispatch and discovered tho cheat
He asked Chicago to come out, which was refused,
with the assertion that the sale made Satur
day. Iowan had him arrested and proved before the
Court that the dispatch did not reach Chicago till
Monday The Judge lectured the agent and gave a
verdict for the Iowan. Chicago felt aggrieved and
took the matter before the Board of Trade Of which
he was o member, when committee on the case re-
ported that whatever the jury may have decided no
moral guilt was attached TO their fellow member
that the SALE the lying and the pocketng the pro-
ceeds were due only to business rivalry and not to
desire to defraud and that if grain was put in the
hands of an agent to sell, he was entitled to such
profit as his ahrewdness might make above the regu-
jar market rates; which is an improvement on the

sAGEs-Owlng to the continued illness OF the editor
Of the WORLD the RENEWALS of the Presidents Mes
sage, and of the Biennial Message OF Gov. Ballard
are not given in this paper For the same reason TINS
issue does contain editorial remarks in regard TO
Territorial Legislative matters or upon other present
topics of local or Territorial Importance. VI the
Presidents Message, however, VIC will say the Radi-
cal papers utterly denounce it, and therefore II must
be deemed by all Democrats pretty good thing The
President shows the evil effects of the bad recon-
struction laws, and counses their repeal also the
repeal Of the odous Tenure-of-otfce law. He agsln
recommends Constitutional Amendments in relation
to the election of President and Vice President and
of o. s. Senator'S directly by the people, and also the
Limitation of the term of Federal Judges to n1eo
period of years. The relations with all f~regn pow
ers continue smooth, with the exception OF little
Paraguay from which apology and satisfaction has
been demanded for IN insult to the American nag
Gov. Ballard gives brief, plain, common-sense'
practical Message, in which only such measures us
concern Idaho are treated of. He concludes with
Let us have Peace" intmation, we infer, that he
don't want the closing scenes OF the Legislature OF
1866 repeated. We say, amen and are very sure the
present able and very respectable body of members
of both Houses will never incite, encourage or par
tcipate in any such actions characterized the oc-

amendment. It will be accordingly set in motion as
soon as Congress meets that the Legislatures which

be passed in time for coored men throughout the

NEWSPAPER CHANGEs.-Since the change of owner
ship of the Portland Oregon) Herald has taken place
the establishment having passed from the Herald
Publishing Company to Dr. Weathertord-a change
has also occurred in the editorial management. Mr..
Beriah Brown has been retired and Mr.. Sylvester
Pennoyer succeeds him. We think DR.. Weatherford
has shown much prudence and wisdom in his seec-
ton of the editor. Mr.. Pennoyer is gentleman of
superior attanents of irreproachable private char
acter very careful correct business man, and is a
genuine Democrat, who has never swerved. nor fall
tered in the party's most troublous days and an
able graceful vigorous and always courteous writer,
we have known him well and long enough to thor
oughly approve and heartily commend him. We
hope and believe that he will greatly aid in building
up the Herald to the first rank of newspapers and
Democratic organs in Oregon, and that his connec-
ton with the paper will be lasting as predict.
it will be advantageous Most cordially do we wei.
come him to the walks of editorial life.
