Notes Of Little ,Jaunt.

On trip last week to the State Con-
vention we made few observations
which may be of interest TO our readers
and which we condense below. W.
went via. of Loogootec and Seymour
and came back via. Terrc Hautc, Vim
cennes aud Princeton, thus seeing a
good deal of country.
With the exception of early potatoes
crops of all kinds were abundant, and
farmers were never more pleased with
the prospect Of good times. Wheat es-
pecially, is magnificent. Everywhere
turning off well, yet in some localities il
is superior 10 any thing realized in this
State before, and shows what may be
done by intelligent farming in good
seasons. We talked with one farmer
near Hazeton, in Gibson county, who
finished threshing the product of 20
acres, on Tuesday, and who had realized
$40 bushels, or an average of 2sl bushcl.
of wheat per acre. Wheat was selling
on the railroad at 81 90 per bushel, and
thousands of bushels were being taken
in. The crop is simply immense every.
where. Corn looks fine, except upon
some few poor hills, and the chinch bugs
don't seem to have affected it percepti.
bly,, although in some localities there
was great deal of talk about ii.
Among the travelling people there wa:
generally a concession that the Demo.
cratic Convention had nominated good
ticket, and that it would sweep the
State this Fall.

THE LICENSE SYSTEM.
With these and such other provisions
as may seem reasonable and necessary,
| think experience jusiiiies the adoption
of the license system. The amount re-
quired for the license in each case should
be greater than heretofore. IL should
be sufficient TO make the party selling
feel that his interest is identified with
that OF society in preserving order and
good conduct at his place of business.

policy will bring "a large revenue into
