IxDIANAPoLIs, May 26.-The following is an
abstract ofthe leading information published
by the National Crop Reporter to- day: Returns
now being received from correspondents in the
cotton States, the full deduction from which
will be published next week. indicate that in
all these States except Texas, the area planted
in cotton this season is considerably less than
the area planted last season, while the acreage
of corn is about correspondingly increased
There arc very general complaints of the de-
struction of the first paintings both of cotton
and corn by cold weather and high water.
Much Of the replanting has been accomplished
but it is feard that owing to the lateness of the
season considerable area will have to lieover.
As far as can be judged from the reports receiV.
ed the stand, May IS, was considerably below
full average, although tho stand of corn was
much superior to that of cotton.
The returns of the correspondents in the
States of Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Texas, Min
| nesOtG, Missouri, Ohio, and Wisconsin show
| an average falling off in the area sown this
spring in barley, in comparison with the av,
| erage of the same grain last spring of q fraet-
ion over 10 per cent. The estimated ayera oe
| OF spring rye shows falling off in the same
States, averaging over 81 per cent.
| i he returns relative to the number and CON
dltlon OF beef cattle, May l. in the same States
show on estimated decrease in numbers from
the corresponding dates of 1879 averageing Is
! per cent, and falling off from an average good
condition of over 516 per cent.
Returns dated May Is denote that, as whole
the springs sowing Of small grain were got in
| good shape, and the present prospects, espec.
| ialy of spring wheat. are fattering Gener
| ally speaking, this is true of the winter wheat
| although there are from some localities com
| plaiuts of damages resultant from the ba(
| weather.
Complaints of the potato bug are frequent
throughout the West, and form q source o
considerable apprehension.

1t seems to us that it would have
been more in accordance with the prin-
ciples of Christianity for the police
force of Cincinnati to have directed
their efforts to protect the Christian,
praying women in their devotional ex-
ercise than to arrest them and take
them off to the station house, because
their prayers were unpleasant to the
most degraded, immoral, drunken scum
of that great city Why did they not
arrest the several hundreds of this lat
ter class, who not only obstructed the
sidewalks, but polluted the air with
their fumes of rottOn beer and
bad whisky their profanity and their
indecent vulgarity In the first place,
they did not want to arrest the real
mob, and in the next place, they were
too coWardly to undertake to arrest
the men; but the women, because they
were comparatively few in number and
feeble in physical force, they could be
brave over them and exercise their Of
fetal authority That's what was the
m after.

Thirty Crusaders Imprisoned.
Thirty ladies were arrested at Pitts
burg, the other day, by the city police
and marched off to prison. Their Of
tense was singing and praying in the
streets to the great annoyance of a
certain dealer. The account says:
at was q novel sight to see thirty of
our best behaved wives and mothers
on their way to prison. They march
ed up Smithfield street singing 'He
will save us, He will save US, He will
save US just now Their faces beam
ed with ineffable delight"
Three of the ladies were fined S25
each, and one gentleman $50. The
fines were promptly paid by gentle
man, and the whole party discharged.
On Saturday last, the same crusad
ing band was ont again and COM
menced their work. They were all
arrested again and marched off to the
lookup. There never were happier
prisoners. They entered the building
singing at the top of their voices,
Am a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the Lambr
They sang and prayed to theil
hearts content till interrupted by al
order from the Mayor for their release

CaDdidate for CONGRESS.

1t has recently been ascertained that
the obdurate whisky seller Of. .Hillsboro
W. H. H. Dunn, has prominent quail
ficatiOns for the honor of a Democrat
ic nomination for Congress, and that
gentleman, we learn, is canvassing the
southern part of this District, looking
after his interests in that direction
He has endeared himself to that party
by his persistent determination to sell
intoxicating liquors in spite of the
prayers and entreaties of the good wo-
men of HiIlsboro in spite of public
sentiment, and in open view of the ae-
cursedness of the unholy traffic; and
that is what seems to be the basis OF
his claims upon his party for a Con
gressional nomination.

GENTLEMEN: Ny only object in giving you
this testimonial is to spread valuable informa-
ton. Having been badly afflicted with Salt
Rheum, and the whole surface of my skin being
covered with pimpleS and eruptionS, many OF
which caused me great pain and annoyance. and
knowing 1t to be blood disease, L took many OF
the advertised blood preparations, among which
was any quantity of SarsaParilla, without obtain
ing any benefit, until I commenced taking the
Yegetine; and before had completed the first
bottle saw that had got the right medicine
Consequently followed on with it until had
taken seven bottles, when I was pronounced q
well man; and my skin is smooth and entirely
enjoyed SO good health before, and attribute It
all to the use OF VegetiEe To benefit those al
fiicted with rheumatism, 1 will make mention
also Of the Vegetine's wonderful power of curing
me of this acute complaint, of which haYe sui
fered so intensely.

eight months ago. 1 have recommended it to
several of my acquaintance; and every one
