the Union is an organ, we most respectfully
decline the part assigned the Democratic

THE CR0ps-pRICFS

The reports from the crops since our last |
article on the subject have been but n con-
uuuation Of the favorable reports which had
for some time obtained. The harvest of
small grains is now secured in great por
ton of the countr-. The prospects in the
portion yet to be harvested are good. 9th
er crops-corn, potatoes, etc,-promise well.
From other lands we have similar iutelli.
gence. The yield of all the products of the
earth making food form an may be said to
be unusually good and promising throughout
Christendom.
The prices Of food have ruled low dur
ing the past year, and with another full crop
must continue to do so during another year
except on the happening OF connections b,
reason Of which short crop for 1870 MAJ
be reasonably anticipated. 1t is already
time for the charges Of large classes Of mid
die men to come down in sympathy with
the prices of food. When our hotel keepers,
our baker, our grocers, have to pay but lit.
tie more than half the prices Of 1867, they
should put down their charges accordingly
The Philadelphia Press compares the prices
which ruled at that city last week, with the
corresponding week Of 1867. Here are
some Of the items: Beef cattle in 1867,
common, l3(Gl4c, prime, l4!(nl53 c;choice,
l6(nl7c. In 1869, common, 6(@7c; prime;
7CG8c; choice. 91c. Flour in 1867 ranged
from $9(0l5,5O per br from superGne up
to fancy brands. In 1869, the range is 50
(a10,50. Wheat IN 1867, $2,20G3,O5. In
1869. 81 ,4O@l ,69. The price of corn is
about the same now as then. Oats, in 1867,
83(995c; in 1869, 6O(G75c. Potatoes in
1867, 50 25C02,75 bushel in 1869, SOFA
soc. Sugar is about the same now as then,
but rice, coffee and fruits are considerably
cheaper. AS it is in Philadelphia, so it is
elsewhere. Pork, it is true, is higher now
than then, but upon the whole the prices
have declined SO much, and must remain
low for such period as to demand cores
ponding reduction on the part Of the middle

Bowed legs and knocking knees are

emily. He attributes the aforementioned
distortion to a habit some youngsters de-
light in Of rubbing the sole Of one foot
against that Of the other. Some will 90 to
sleep with the soles pressed together. They
appear to enjoy the contact only when the
feet are naked. They don't attempt to make
il when the feet are socked or sippered.-
So the remedy is obvious-keep the babys
soles covered. Knocking knees the doctor
ascribes TO a different childish habit, that of
sleeping on the side, with one leg tue ked
into the hollow behind the other. He has
found that where one leg has been bowed
inwards more than the other, the patient
has always slept on one side, and the upper
most member has been the one most de-
formed. Here the preventive is to pad the
insdes Of the knees so as to keep theIn

The treasurer's office at Washington is
flooded with spurious ten dollar greenbacks
received from banks in oil the northern
states, but more particularly from the New
York city banks. The counterfeits are so
perfect that the Government experts find
great trouble selecting the spurious from
the genuine. 1t is supposed that two Of the
printers engaged in printing the genuine
note have colluded together, and while one
of them has obtained the lead impression Of
the face plate, the other has secured the lead
impression of the back, and thus OBJ tanned a
com plete impression Of the note. 1t is
thought that General Spinner will call in
the ten dolIar issue of greenbacks at once,
and save oil further trouble from fear of
counterfeits.

MUSHGAL AND DRAMATIC
"The Unequal Match, at the Chestnut.

Tom Taylor's comedy OF The UnequaL Match, as
given at the Chestnut last evening, a very un-
equal performance, and it failed to achieve such
success as will warrant its production very soon
pieces it is decidedly INFERIOR and although the story
Is not unnteresting and some OF the situations are
quite dramatic the dialogue is often weak and
trivial and the general effect is far from envening.
Last night too, 1t evident that the dialogue had
been trimmed down considerably, and while this had
the effect OF bringing out in boder relief the charac
ter Of Hester Gazebrook," which was sustained by
Miss Keene, 1t also destroyed the continuity of the
plot and some OF the scenes were almost unintegi-
BILE, while the whole performance was disjointed, and
in an eminent degree unsatisfactory.
The theme OF the comedy Is an old one that has
been worked over and over again, and Taylor has
not given by any means the best version. The plot
, as nearly as 1t can be made out, relates how "Sir
Harry Arnclife like the Lord OF Burleigh" in Ten
nysons poem, in the disguise of landscape painter
fell in love with poor mans daughter and raised
her to his own estate. Her rustic manners, how
ever, were out OF place in his stately halls and
fashionable rival gradually encroaches upon the pre-
negatives OF the wife, The baronet suddenly leaves
home for the German springs to nurse an inclpient
consumption, without informing his wife of the
wherefore of his departure. The rival follows him,
and the wife is led to believe that she is deserted
She then sets to work to- learn all the fashionable
airs and graces of the beau monde, and travelling
to the continent, creates quite sensation in society
She meets her husband at the springs, finds him in
good health, and brings him to his by exciting
his Jealousy and treating him with polished indf-
terence, until he acknowledges his errors and begs
for a reconciliation.
Miss Keene gave good personation of sHester
sazebrookn and the parts of 'John Gazebrook,"
s.Hesters" father, and "Bessie," her waiting maid
were creditaby acted by Mr.. Jack and Miss Jose
phne Laurens. The other parts were not well DONE
ana Mr. Sheridan as ''sr Harry Arnclfe," aud Miss
Jennie Anderson as "Lady Honeywood," were par
ticularly inefficient
To speak plainly, this comedy is not worth produc-
Ing, and although the actors algh. have doAs s,l.
