TuK latest crop accounts from England

Tx latest crop accounts from England
(Assch 2e) speak of frost in exposed
places, followed by heavy snow storm,
which checked vegetation, injured the
young grass and hindered field work, ex-
cept upon the highest lands. From Bel
GUM, h Hand and France there are IN
favorable accounts of mischief done to
the crops by the remarkable fluctuations
of March weather. Meat, being scarce
on the continent, is likely to advance in
price, and this will stiffen the demand fOT
bresdstuffs, which are very firm, with
Indications of rising market. Russia
alone seems to have g surplus, and she
will be our very formidable competitor in
the English and French markets.

JusT before Grants ignominious retreat
from San Domingo, Senator Sumner was
heard To express himself freely touching
the matter. ''To retreat now" said Mr..
Sumner, "after having gotten his party
into such fix, would ruin the party and
himself. He has drawn his party into a
swamp, and the question now is how to
get out of it. The only way that re-
mains is to dispose of the matter now. 1t
is too great load for the party to carry.

The PCs'masters at Harrisonburg and
EdinbuTg, Va, Lctere the war have been
mulcted by the United States Government
for stamps in their hands when the war

atcd these very stamps. and the men who
hold them to-day, notwithstanding they
may have purchased and paid value re-
csivtd for them, cannot pay the post
ave on letter with them or get them
redeemed. Here we find the Government
suing p1stmasters foy stamps it will not
Ieleem itself and recovering judgments
from them. That is characteristic of the

EVEN the New York Herald is going
back on Grant. Ia recent issue it says:
eve have been disposed to sustain
Gen. Grant, on account of the services he
rendered the country in the war, and be-
lieved he was honest, having hope, at the
same time, that with experience ne would
shew some capacity fer craftsmanship;
bat he has failed, and we sec little else
but blunders, both in our domestic and
foreign affairs"
The Herald will yet learn that the ser
vices Grant rendered the country depend
ed for their success upon ab.er heads than
his, and that he is just as ignorant 10 mill
tary IS he has shown himself 10 bein Pc
litical affairs. He had but few counsel
.Ors in the war, and succeeded; he has
q multitude now and has failed. He has
no sbility to direct in either position.
