Wheat Orop in WISCONSIN.


The Madison Journal, published ip central
part of the State and which has facilities fol-
ascertaining The results fthe wheat harvest
in Wisconsin, gives the following
1.-THE wheat harvest in this State il conclud
ed, and the crop partly threshed. We arc
gratlfed to learn that both in yield and in
quality it proves much better than was antc
pated at the beginning of the harvest. In June
there was every promise of an nnequallec
crop. The dry and intensely hot weather
early in July, proddced an unfavorable effect
The hopes of the farmer sunk as low as they
had mounted high few weeks earlier The
current talk was that the crop was nearly
ruined, and that the heads were not filling
out, aud that the yield would be poor and the
quality inferior. We learn, however, from
various sections Of the State that these an
tcipations are happily disappointed, and that
the crop is in all respects much superior to
tleman engaged in the Touring business, who
has been paying particular attention to the
subject, says the yield will average twenty
bushels to the acre, where it was but twelve
bushels last year, while the wheat is much
heavier. A farmer in this county, who had
indulged in dismal apprehensions OF shrunk Ell
wheat, on threshing lately found that he had
raised more to the acre than last year and
that 1t weighed sixty-two pounds to the bush
81. From other sections of the 81 ate, from
Columbia county aud from the western coun
ties, we hear similar reports.
A considerably larger breath of wheat was
sown last spring than in the previous year
and with the favorable vie and excellent
quality OF the crop, our farmers after all seen
TO have reasonto be very well contented with
he result.

ANOTHER REBELLION PROMISED. --The
National Democratic Convention, which
put in nomination Seymour and Blair, by
q unanimous vote resolved that the legis-
lation Of Congress, in respect to the re-
establishment of the Governments of the
seeded States. is Revolutionary, uncon-
stitptional and void u The Democratic
party does not propose to establish the
unconstitutionality Of the new State Gov
ernments at the South, by submission to
legal tribunals, but by the will of the par
ty alone. The Democratic party, not
many years ago, was, accustomed to pride
itself on being "law abiding party
now, if it gets into power, it proposes to
make co1 the laws Of Congress, without
calling in the aid of the Courts. Every
man, therefore, who votes for Seymour
and Blair deliberately favors renewal
OF the rebellion. Tne Chicago Tribune
forcibly states the case as follows:
Can we vote to nullify the law, and
thereafter expect the protection of law !?
Can we vote to substitute force for law,
and expect the continuance of peace in
the land +? Can Seymour be elected upon
declaration that laws regularly enacted
are void, and expect that the country will
permit him to set them aside without re-
sistance But if he does not proceed to
set them aside he will be guilty Of the
grossest deception. His platform requires
him to treat them as though they never
mad been passed, and he cannot fail so to
treat them without perfidy to his party.
1t elected, he must be false to his country
and his oath of Office, or false to those who
nominated him"

The War q Mistake.

Gen. Montgomery Blair, late Post Mas
er General, and brother of Frank Blair
Democratic candidate for the Vice / resi-
dency, in speech few days ago de
clared:
Many who, like myself, have opposed Sc
eesslon and rebellion for the sake OF liberty
ana cohstitutlonal government, and fancied
ourselves wiser than the rebels, if not more
patriotic, 2cM to confess oar mistake. In
the present aspect OF affairs, have to confess
that It IS yet to be decided whether those who
iought fer the Union, and in doing so, sad
dleu inc country with great army and a
great debt, and founded great nercenarv in
terests and corrupting Influences hostile - r.
every form OF freedom, hare not bl,tndered."
Now. if Blair in .'opposing secession
ana rebellion for the sake of liberty and
Constitutional Government confesses
that he mud a aatdahe, and had eblun-
dsred, . Of course he will consider it his
first duty, and that Of his family, should
brother Frank be elected, to reetify that
mistake and to undo that blunder. The
biairs, tlea, will lock With favor % a
