The Crops.

During our recent visit to the country
We took pains to ascertain the real con
dition of the crops. The grasshoppers
are practically gone, and the true state
of affairs can now be ascertained. The
destruction is Lot so great as was
thought two weeks ago. Men who then
believed their wheat to be total failure
now tell us they will have half crop.
When the grasshoppers were committing
their ravages they destroyed the grain
then visible, but about one-half the
heads were yet in the boot, and these not
being injured, have since developed into
a mature condition, and will result in
yielding half a crop. This has been the
experience of a number of farmers. 9th
er kinds Of grain were not as badly dam.
aged as at first supposed, and in some
instances nearly an average yield will
be realized. These instances are like
50 much clear gain, for the fields thus
found to be of value were given up as
worthless. There is also considerable
oats and flax in good condition with a
certainty of a fair crop.
The corn is nearly all replanted where
it was destroyed. and is mostly up and
looking we'll some of it large enough to
be farmed. The prospect is much better
than it was two weeks ago, and with a
favorable season the rest of the summer,
there will be an abundance this fall. Po-
tatoes in many places are in splendid
condition, and hundreds of acres have
been planted during the past two weeks.
There is good cause for hopeiulness in
the outlook. Leauen,y0rth Commercial.

Boss Tweed.

Tweed is free again-that is from the
sentence pronounced by Judge Davis,
and this by the unanimous opinion of the
court of appeals. The point involved
was this: Tweed was indicted for va
rious offenses, separately set forth i'll sew
eral counts. He was tried and found
guilty on all. He was sentenced for a
given term of years upon each-thus
making his punishment cumulative.
The point set up on which his discharge
was asked, was that this method of cum
ulating ofIenses and sentences was Illegal
and against all precedent. And it is
this point the court of appeals sustains
This point was raised at the time of sem
tence but overruled, and we are not sur
prised that the decision of Judge Davis
has been reversed. Tweed was a great
rascal, and it is unfortunate that be-
cause he was in the power of the law
there should be m innovation made upon
the practice-Dr no matter how great
the criminal it is of more importance
that the safeguards thrown around the
liberty OF the citizen should be main
tanned than any personal punishment be
had. The next suits will be civil actions
to recover back the money stolen-but
time, and worry and political power and
favoritism will get round them all, and
we may conclude practically that the
Boss is free.-Ransas City Journal.

In Maine the Democrats arc on the
reform" On the 22d inst. they met in
State Convention at Augusta, nominated
Gen. Charles w. Roberts % their candi-
date for Governor and adopted resolu-
tions embodying the following;
The constitution is the peoples safe
guard. The rights of the people and the
States must be sacredly preserved from
the touch of military and congressional
usurpation civil supremacy in times of
peace, equality Of rights for all men I'M
der the law; a sound currency tariff
for revenue only; the people OF Maine
suffering under a burden of oppressive
taxation demand reform, and appeal to
all men, without regard to party names
or past differences. to unite with them to
secure this triumph.

Now that the grasshoppers are gone it
is amusing to look over our old exchanges
and read the various predictions Of
learned professors how from the effects Of
the damp atmosphere, rains, parasites,
etc, they would soon die and be among the
things that were. But in spite of the pre-
dictions of these wise men, and those who
had seen them before, the parasites and
other dire calamities that were to befall
them, they continued to flourish ate up
fields of corn aud oats, where they could
find them, and acres of grass and weeds
where they could do no better; stayed
several weeks longer than the time ap-
pointed for their departure, and in their
own good time put on their ascension
robes, rose in the air in countless multi
tudes and took their departure in an ap-
parently healthy cordition. The grass
hopper is tough, and we don't believe that
our scientific men thoroughly understand
either his constitution or his habits.

THE platform adopted by the Demo
Gratis of Ohio at their late State conven
ton the Cincinnati Eaqairer says was
gotten up by Hon. l.. ID. Campbell and
Gen. Thomas Ewing. Both these men
were formerly Republicans, and Ewing
was one of the most radical among the
radical. He has great abilities but has
been unfortunate in his aspirations.
However much the Democrats may ad.
mire the platform he has made them
they can never forget nor forgive his
famous "Order No. H." which he issued
while a military officer, and making
platforms for them is probably about as
lucrative position as they will ever
give him, This platform which seems
to give Ohio Democrats such delight the
New York Wort!, the organ of the East
ern Democracy, says it is founded upon
amazing ignorance and fabricated with
absurd indifference"

WASHINGTON, June 23.-The follow.
ing dispatch has been received at the In.
dian bureau from Prof Janney, dated in
camp on French creek, near Harney's
peak, June 18th.
To Hon. Z. u. Smith:
have discovered gold in small guam.
titles on the north bend Of Castle creek,
on bars of quarts gravel. About fifteen
miners are on the creek above here, and
have commenced working. Gold is found
from Castle creek southwardly, to French
creek at this point, and deposits are al
most all in Dacotah. The prospect at
present is not such as to warrant extern
ded explorations in mining.
Signed w. P. JANNEY.

LAST Saturday Postmaster General
Jewell arrived at st. Louis and immedi-
ately telegraphed for the postmosters OF
the principal cities of Missouri and Kan
sas to meet him at that place at once.
1t is reported that the postmasters from
the most of the cities started off for St.
Louis fully expecting to be assigned to
some duty at Washington City in high
er position. But. the Postmaster General
merely wished to consult with them in
reference to properly conducting the
business Of their offices and to know if it
was in any way possible to reduce ex-
penses or in any manner render the mail
service more efficient. Jewell is in earn
est about reform.

THE Continental powers of Europe
continue do discuss the question of dis.
armament, but in the meantime France
is persistent in her Hercuiesn efforts to
regain her lost strength, position and in.
fiuence among nations. Germany looks
with suspicion OIL the rapidly growing
army of France, and is constantly en-.
deavoring to make her army more eff
cient. These two nations now have in
their armies the flower of their peoples,
and unless some stronger influence than
merely the protest of other nations is
brought to bear in favor of peace they
will doubtless soon be engaged in anoth-
er war. With such giant preparations
for war it will be impossible to maintain
peace. One of the greatest blessings that
could at this time be conferred upon the
civilized world would be the establish
ment of some power representing all ma
tions whereby war could be abolished,
and the vast multitude of soldiers who
are now withdrawn from the vacations
Of peace be returned to the peaceful
walks of life aud become producers. 1t
is great curse TO manking and an out
rage upon christianity and civilization
that such large number of able bodied
men should be mere consumers, sup
ported for the purpose of taking the
lives of their fellow men.

IT is said of the late John Harper Of
New York that "after he had left his
office for the day and retired to his
home on Fifth Avenue, he would give
up all thoughts of business matters and
would refuse to converse on business af.
fairs" This should be adopted as the
motto of every business man in the
land. A large majority of business men
in this country break down before reach
ing the meridian of lite on account of re-
serving the most taxing part of the
days work until evening, and even the
hours that should he devoted to sleep
are often partially spent in devising
plans for the coming days operations
Over the door of every business mans
home should be painted, "No business
transacted here"

AS was anticipated by many on the
return of the late Indian delegation
from Washington City dissatisfied, the
present move Of the Indians indicate i'm
mediate trouble. The military force is
not strong enough to to guard the Black
Hills and keep the Indians on their res
ervations, and within the past two weeks
some five large war parties have left
their reservations. The Sioux, Chey-
ennes and Arapahoes are all reported on
the war path.

LAST "Wednesday Mr.. Beach concluded
his argument in the prosecution of the
long contested Reecher-Tilton suit. At
the close Of his argument Mr.. Beach
made application to have the case re-
opened ON the ground of newly discov-
cred evidence. As Mr.. Beecher's, attor-
ney made no objection to the application
of Mr.. Beach the Judge announced that
he would decide the, matter Thursday
morning. If the ease is not re-opened
it will be submitted to the jury, and. it
will doubtless take the rest of the sum-
mer to review the testimony and make a
decision. If the case is se-opened it will
be well to have the jury eWbalmed.

PROF. TIcE, Of st. Louis, has been in
vestigating the cause of storms. earth
quakes, ETC., for number of years and
some time ago he predicted that the
year 1874 would be subject to violent
storms. earthquakes and unusual
atmospherical disturbance throughout
the world, and thus far his predictions
have been strictly verified. BY way of
encouragement however, it has been
stated that the Professor says that these
storms will have spent their force by the
first or middle of July.
