OLD BACHELOR.
"All snr little secrets telling;
On our little foibles dwelling,
All our faulte and follies swellin


All our i.uits and f.llies swelling ,oh. you
Naughty. naughty girls.''
I had hoped when I asked for infor-
nation, and class of young ladies sup
posing themselves capable of explaining
what they knew of romance and senti-
ment came to the rescue, 1 did think
they could at least tell what they knew;
but again find myself mistaken, for in
steal of giving me an insight into the
wonderful sensation, as they are polite
ly requested to do, by our editor, they
fly onto o. B. like wet hen, pick his
peculiarities all to pieces; ridicule his
character; then leave ham deeper in the
dark than ever.
can plainly see that the shoe that
pinches is on 1he political foot. 1 advise
their mothers to procure them Bloomer
costume, false mustache, a dainty little
cane, a letter ofintroduction to Susan B.
Anthony, and then their false position
will be complete, for their highest am
bition will be accomplished. -E.
0. B. did not accept your idea as be-
ing correct, nor agree with you at all.
If you thought it unnecessary to explain
to him what he asked to know, why did
you condemn him for not knowing what
you prolessed to know, and could not
tell word about? a,. ..,. f... g..
You say you are aware there are no
brave Lochinvars nowadays. If there
We're. am of the opinion they wouldn' t
bother politics in petticoats much. {
You seem to have taken up the idea
that o. V. B. and .. B. referred to all
the girls under the sun. You are mis-
taken; we only meant that class Of
young ladies who have but one idea on
the subject, and find it in every common
place affair in creation. Ithink we know
what we are about, while W. G. have
been barking up the wrong tree. .,.
1t IS true that sensible. young ladies
never lower their aspirations to goose
ponds, muddy lakes, &c., but w. G.
have taken up the g1,antlet as if the cap
fits them, so let them wear it. Yours,
hopefully, ' OLD BACHELOR.
P.S. AS for o. NJ, it is plainly visi-
ible she is very far advanced on the sha-
dy side of forty, and wants to get on the
good side of w. g.. Considering the eff.
fort she has made, it would have been
better if she had kept her nose. out alto

themselves famous for sticking their ma
sal organs into other peoples business.

Crop PrOsDoese.

Hon: Pennock Pusey has arrived homo
in st. Paul, from several months absence,
principally passed in Wilmington, Del,
with occasional visits to Philadelphia and
New York. The many friends Of Mr..
Pusey in this city and State will be glad
to learn that he has passed very pleas
ant winter and that he has been, and il
now, in the enjoyment of most excellent
health.
In = short conversation with = re.
porter Mr.. Pusey gave 4 very dis.
couraging report of the winter wheat
prospects in the States of Pennsylvania,
Ohio. Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, through
which he passed, based on his own per.
s"nal observation. Field after field was
passed as bare as when first turned over
by the plow, not sprig Of grain re-
lieving tho dreary waste, all killed By
the wet and cold weather of the past
winter. In other fields there were here
and there green patches, and in still 9th.
ers, the prospect vas good for nearly an
average crop. Michigan appeared to
have suffered the least of the States
named, and Indiana next, though in these
States he did not think there would be 4
half crop, while in the others, he doubted
ifthe crop would reach third Of the
general average.
Reaching Chicago Mr.. Pusey found that
city greatly excited over the
subject Of grasshoppers, the advance
guards Of which had already reached the
city limits, and were reported .s commit.
ting great havoc with tho grain fields Of
southern Illinois. He is Of the opinion,
however, the continuance Of these pests
in that section, or ut any point east OF
the Mississippi, will be Of comparatively
brief duration, from the fact that the
birds will rapidly make way with goodly
proportion Of them, and that the others
will soon take the back track for the
great plains Of the southwest from whence
they came. Their appearance has, not.
withstanding, created decided furry in
all that section, and much anxiety is felt
as to the extent Of damage likely to be
sustained to the growing crops:
From these facts, in connection with
the terrible destruction Of growing crops
by the grasshoppers in Missouri and Kan
opinion that tho cut of grain
this year, will be very largely below that
of last season, and that ~ ! natural se.
lquence, there must soon be very decid.
ed advance in the price of wheat, and his
advice to Minnesota farmers who have not
yet sold their surplus Of last years crop,
| is to still hold on, and await the advance
lin price which is now, he believes, only .
question of few weeks.
