wheat and Other Crops-POiitics, Etc.
EDITORS CHRONICLE: Come to the
Sth district and take a glance at Beaver
Creek Valley. AS you drive on the
Emory road you will behold field after
field on your right and left covered
with wheat shocks, and then you will
think of the fabulous reports of wheat
from California.
Ii is estimated that the Sth district
will make ten thousand bushels.
Among the largest crops in the district
ara the following: Yves. Fox, about
500 bushels; Mrs. Mcclellan, near
400; Mr.. White, on c. Powell's farm,
800 Mr.. Stoltzfus, 800; Alb. Hall, 900
Miller & Smoker. on VIM. Lewis
farm, 800 George Tindle, 500. at
These figures are only rough guess
work, but show in the neighborhood
of it. A number of crops reach 200 and
80. The late harvest demonstrates
beyond doubt that the drilled wheat is
ahead. 1t will add one fourth. E'r
Corn is looking promising, when we
consider that the general crop il yet
young. Many farmers are not yet
done blowing the second time. The
crop ranges from one to three feet
high. Some farmers have com meme
ed laying bye because 1t is so late they
say. This is a mistaken idea, because
corn must be cultivated until it is old
enough to take care of itself
don't remember to have ever seen
as dull time in election-tics or cleo
ton politics, if you please. The peo-
pie have been " dingdonged at so
much that they are utterly disinter-
ested. If phalanx of candidates in
solid column were to march down our
valley making civil rights speeches at
the top of their voices and with their
suffering wives and children hanging
| to their coat tails, mingling their APP
peals for bread with the eloquent cleo
! tioneering of their woe begonehusbands
/ don't think one farmer in ten, from
present appearance, would turn on his
| heal or ever glance over his shoulder to
| look on the miserable thTong of beg
gars as they passed by.
! We have more snakes, more mus
quoitoes, more flies and more torment
ing bugs that eat up our potatoes and
melon vines than we have had for a
long time. We also have one of the
most impudent red foxes on Beaver
Ridge that ever was there before. 1t
has taken Is chickens and ducksfrOm
c. L. Wood, besides rendering miser-
able the poultry crop of our Beaver
Ridge people generally. Roy.

GEN. BURNSIDE.

The circumstances under which Gen.
Burnside is to visit Knoxville next
Saturday are favorable for divesting
the celebration OF political character
and for making it what it should be,
a grand old fashioned Fourth of July
celebration. The people of East Ten
nessee, Union aud Confederate, re-
member Gen. Burnside as a warm
hearted, gallant officer, who mitigated
as far rs possible the rigors Of the war
and respected the rights of citizens,
and they have ever cherished for him
the kindest of feelings. We are safe
in predicting that if 10 unfsvorable
circumstances intervene, there will be
the largest gathering in Knoxville on
the 4th of July that has assembled
here since the war FROM the noun
tains, valleys and coveS, from the villa
yes towns aud cities Of East Tennessee,
the people will gather to celebrate our
national anniversary and do honor to
one Of the best citizens of the country.
Let Knoxville extend to them fitting
welcome and make the occasion one
for a r..-union of our people that will
work new era in the history OF our
section.

THE ecclesiastical question in Prussia
continues to be one of embarrassment
to the Government. There are now
three bishops and over one hundred in
ferior persons in prison, and the policy
seems to be to continue imprisoning all
who refuse to recognize the State as SUI
preme. The only hope to escape inn
prisonment is exile, and Luxembourg
seems to be their favorite refuge. It's
independence is guaranteed by several
of the leading powers of Europe with
whom Germany may yet have trouble
over this question.
