WISCONSIN CROP IrEks.

The Prairie du Chen Courier says -
Crawford county is suffering severely from
drouth. The grass in the woods and valleys
is dry, Drowned and crisped. Corn was
whitening and dying. The creeks and
streams are almost dried up.
The Grant county Witness of the lst
reports that but little rain has fallen, and
vegetation and she crops generally are suf
fering greatly on account of the drouth
The wheat and oat crops are nearly ruined
The corn crop still looks pretty we'll, but it
cannot hold out much longer.
The Lancaster Herald say the heat con-
sinues almost insuffersbe, and the crops are
near drying up for want Of rain. Corn is
doing generally better than the small grains
because worked. But the other crops, with
grass aud potatoes, are at a stand or failing
for lack of rain.
The Kilburn City Mirror, in an article on
the hop crop, thinks 1t will be failure
The grub, out worm and louise, together
with the great heat and lack of rain. is the
cause.
The Janesville Gazette reports the corn in
nearly every portion of Rock county looking
we'll, and with fair amount Of rain, the
crop will be good one-
According to the Sheboygan county
Herald the crops in that county ard along
the lake shore are splendid. Our great lake
has attracted copious showers, and wheat
and cora fields are vieing with each other
in their luxurisnce and greenness. There
is but one shadow upon this pleasant picture;
the thought of the complete destruction Of
the potato crop.
The crops in Fond du Lao county are
looking passably we'll, promising an average
all around except hay.
The Waushara Times report that wheat
on old land will be almost q total failure.
Rain may help it some but the crop must be
light.
The Shswsno Journal of the 3O.h says
ave hear good reports of the grain crop
throughout the county, particularly from the
southern part. At Belle Plain, the pas
week, a piece of corn belonging to Mr.. Ly
man Dodge had silked out"
The Hudson Democrat says: "The ligh
showers Of last week we're, Of course, bene
fcia but the droush is becoming serious
throughout the Croix valley, and, unless
soon relieved by rain, must result. at best
in a light wheat crop. Even with immediate
rain, the yield would not be up to the ex-
psctations awakened by the favorable sprinf
weather"
The Dunn county NeUs complains of thu
want of rain. Ga heavy aud rich soils thu

Exciting Times In Madison Parish.
RICHMOND, MADISON PARISH, La,

AdChMOND, MADISON PARISH. La.
December IA, 1870.
Friend Spears:-Knowing your inter-
est in all that transpires within reach of
your valuable journal, write to give
you an idea Of the terrorism which has
pervaded, for the past week, this por-
ton of the country. On Saturday last
q party of movers, on their way to Tex
as, with crowd of thirty negroes who
had been living with them ever since
the wal, were passing Tallula Station,
party of some thirty armed negroes,
headed by one Jesse Crosby, negro
constable, stopped the wagons, and, not
withstanding the entreaties of the ne
groes themselves, forcibly carried them
off. The law-abiding citizens of this
country, jealous as they have always
been of the good name of their parish,
procured next day writ and endeav-
ored, peaceably, to arrest the leader,
but failed to find him.
Yesterday Mr.. Sam Sparrow, who was
summoned by the Constable to assist
him in securing the arrest of the negro
Constable, received message from the
negroes that they intended to take his
life and all of those in company with
him. He Immediately informed the
citizens, as many as possible, and i'm
mediately repaired to Tallula, where
they were informed that the negroes
were forming at Mr.. Rothschild's store,
about mile and a half distant, fully
armed, and very threatening. Shortly
after, Mr.. S., who deemed it necessary
to remove his family, was at the station
with them when two negroes approach
ed and said they had the negro Crosby
with them, and if he wanted him, to
come and take him. Mr.. s. replied that
he had nothing to do with him, but
that the Constable would be out on the
evening train. The message was sim
ply ruse as the sequel proved, for in
less time than it takes me to narrate it,
body of about one hundred negroes
came dashing down the road brandish-
ing their guns, firing their pistols, and
exclaiming I" let's kill 'em ALL"
The affair at this hung on thread,
and nothing but the array of about ten
armed and determined white men de-
tered them from the attempted COM
pletion of. their bloody threats. While
I write, crowds of outraged and deter
mined white men, fully armed, are
rapidly congregating from all the adj
joining parishes, and bloody work may
take place before this reaches you, and
"the oft told war of races'' begun, for
assure you this is no childs play, but the
outpouring of an outraged and injured
community fighting for life and home.
This is solution of the numerous
threats that have been made by the
negroes for the past two months, that
they intended to own Madison by
Christmas.
You must excuse chirography and
photography, as write hurriedly with
crowds of men around me.
Your sincere friend, MGR.
