A Short Corn Cron.

The November statistical report OF
the Department of Agriculture makes
the showing for the corn product quite
as unfavorable as that which forecasted
the short crop Of 1869. The prelim-
mary report of the aggregate quantity
in that year indicated a total of 874,
O00,0 600 bushels, which was 220, OOO,-
600 less than the estimate for the large
crop of 1870. The present returns
point TO a product of 85s, DOC, 900. Es-
innate of last years crop in Illinois.
2l7. 00O, 900; estimate of the present
crop, l3e. ooo. 900. Only six States
show crops equal to last year. viz :
Virginia, Georgia. Florida, West Vir-
ginia, Oregon, ard Rhode Island The
percentage of the deficiency in the
principal corn growing sections, in com
parison with the total product of last
year. is as follows: Kentucky, a per
cent /; Ohio, II; Indiana, 22; Illinois.
80; Iowa, 90; Missouri. 80; Kansas,
81. The deficiency in New York is 8
per cent, and Pennsylvania, is. In
most of the Southern States the crop is
smaller than that Of last year.

Defiant LanoHapA,

The FL Cronista, the Spanish organ
in New York, on Saturday published
a letter from Havana, dated the 22d
instant, in which the writer breathes
forth vengeance and slaughter. He
says Cuba is perfectly indifferent as
to whether the United States at
tempts an invasion OF the island. II
she does she must take the conse-
quences.
The FL Cronista also publishes a
long and inflammatory article urging
the Spanish Government TO maintain
a bold attitude toward this country,
and to show tits capariu Of guvrrH-
ing Cuba, for, the editor asserts, the
United States would otherwise invade
Cuba without declaring war against
Spain, and On pretense of re-estab-
fishing on the island the authority of
the Peninsula The FIVE points which
the American Government has pre-
sented to Spain, are denounced as
humiliating and inadmissible.

EDs JOURNAL: This is one of the
southern tier of counties bordering on
the Indian Territory. and comprises
some of the finest land Of the State,
being a part of what is known as the
DOSAGE Reserve" The Valleys are
broad, rich, and the soil 8 sandy
loan, and not subject to overiows
Springs of soft water are found
plentifully distributed throughout
The county, and water either in creeks
or springs is accessible to almost
every quarter section. This together
with mild climate, the neyer failing
supply of water. and natural shelter
afforded by hills overgrown with
timber, renders this one of the finest
counties in the State either for farm
ing or stock raising
Stone for all kinds of building
purposes is found in abundance
There is both sandstone and lime
stone. but the favorite cen to be
the sandstone, which is of a greyish
red color, is easily quarried 10 blocks
of any desired dimensions; when
tax en- out it is soft and easy to dress,
but on exposure to the air it becomes
very hard-stone coal. of q fail
quality is also found near the centre
of the county. In a word. any one
looking Westward, would do well to
locate in this county. Here fine
crops of corn and wheat were raised
this last season.
The county is settled by people
from almost every State in the Union
Ohio is pretty well represented. The
Clerk of the District Court, Mr.
Daniel Carr. is a native of Meigs
county, Ohio. s.Dan is avery popu
lar Clerk. He belongs to the legal
profession" One of our County
Commissioners, Capt Harrison Ber
