The Civil Rights Bill now prevents
the passage OF twenty-seyen bills upon

The Radicals in Congress, unable to
pass their revolutionary measures under
the present rules, succeeded Monday, by
an arbitrary and evolutionary ruling of
the Speaker, in changing the rules, so
as to bring up the civil rights bill and
other extreme measures of the party,
and pass them by majority vote.

There were rumors in the streets and
hotels this afternoon that he had made
concessions to Republican members of
the Legislature for their votes. He de-
mics, emphatically, having made con-
cessiOns in any form, or entering into
any understanding with ether candi-
dates or opposition, and says that he was
elected upon the broad platform of the
constitution and administration of the
law as annunciated by the National
Democracy Press Dispatch.
Then what becomes of the remark of
a prominent republican member, who
when accused of inconsistency in voting
for Mr.. johnson on the final ballot, after
having given repeated assurances that
he would never be instrumental in elect
ing him, said that Mr.. johnson had
given him such assurances as would
have induced any republican in the
State to support him, and that he re-
gGrded his election as the greatest Re
publican triumph his party had ever
achieved in Tennessee? If Mr.. John
son made no concessions, what did this
remark of Mr.. Gibson mean?

The agricultural report for the
year, indicates a larger annual crop
yield, during the past season, than for
any year, for long time past. The
crops of 1870 and 1872 were large,
but the one just now harvested is fully
equal, if not superior to them. Every
quarter Of the country has had an in
crease in the number Of bushels grown,
and though in some cases slight, in
others it has been so much greater as
to raise the sum total of the crop
twenty-five per cent. above that Of
1874. The increase in the New Eng
land States is not large. but that Of
the Middle States will reach ten per
cent, that of the Gulf States seventeen,
other Southern States about fifty, and
the Western States ia general about
sixty per cent. But, while the guam
tity Is so abundant, the quality is not
ms good as could be desired. The cold
unreasonable weather and the early
and heavy irosts have made much Of
the corn soft, wet and almost unmark'
etable. The potato crop is about one
fourth larger than last year. Cotton
cannot be fully reported just yet. but
enough is known to show that the
Gulf States exhibit larger. and the
Atlsatic, States a smaller, crop thar
usual. The best authorities on cottOr
statistics are certain that the crop vii
exceed 100000 bales, and some
place it as high as 4 100000. bas,a
