The Crops.

Reports from thirty of the principal
counties in Wisconsin exhibit a general in
crease of acreage in wheat, with every
prospect of heavy yield, unless blight and
rust should intervene. Oats, rye and bar
ley promise well, but corn is backward
The potato crop viii be fully up TO the
av erage of former years. The yield of hay,
too, is large. Jefferson County must be in
cluded among the counties in which the
crops promise best. The general opinion
prevails that unless something unforeseen
transpires the yield OF wheat and other
grains will be the largest since 1860, if not
equal to that year The weather has been
rather unpropitious for haying. thus far,
but the yield is an abundant one. Corn is
the only crop that is backward, the wet
weather having bad effect on that planted
on low grounds. There is still time enough
left for corn to do well and the crop may
yet come out all right.

juneau, July ., 1875.
ExcURsIoN.-A trip by carriage from
juneau to Theresa, through Horizon and
Mayville, shows that all kinds Of crops are
in excellent condition, possibly with the
exception of corn, which is somewha at
backward, but of this but little is raised
in this section. The part Of the county
traversed is among the finest in the neigh
borhood, the land being high and rolling
lib orally furnished with timber This is
mostly hard maple, and the woods are
kept in excellent condition, being entirely
free of underbrush. The population is al
most exclusively German, and the same,
may be said of Mayville and Theresa, both
fourishing villages, the former one the
largest Many of the buildings are fine
brick structures, neatly finished, and every
thing shows that the citizens are &C tive and
enterpIising.
PoLITIcAL-At the county convention

the nomination OF Hon. VIM. E. Smith for

Notwithstanding to the census re-
turns as far as heard from. the population
of Dodge County may safely be put at so, 900.
This is gain of about 5000 for the popu-
ation of 1870. The city of Beaver Dam
figures up 3,455, and the town of Oak
Grove 2,2os inhabitants, being gain of
about It's for each. Juneau shows $40 in
habitants, gain of 10 in FIVE years.
DAMAGE BY STORM The terrible thunder
storm of Saturday night week ago created
consid cradle damage in different parts of
the county. The Gill dam a: Danville was
swept out and the one at South Beaver
Dam considerably damaged. A barn in
| Eiba was struck by lightning and burned,
and horses and cows killed at different
places in the county Tie almost constant
rains have flooded all the marshes, and
considerable damage has been done to grass
where it was already cut, but not yet
| secured.

The Judiciary.

Among the reforms which the people
have right to expect as resulting
from the late election, IL change III the
prasent Judiciary, reduction OF the
number OF the Circuit Court Judges
and ChapceIors. and reduction OF their
salaries. -.
The Circnit Court District can easily
ba reduced from fifteen to ten and the
Cbaueery Districts from twenty to eight.
As now provided bv law the salaries OF
the Circnit Court judges and Chancel-
lors amount to 112,500 dollars. LII the
nnmber were redOced to ten Ol1cnis
Court Judges and eight Chaneellors ana
the salaries OF Circnit judges to 250o DOL
lar and ChanceIlors to 1000 there would
b. saving in the way of salaries a'one
| of $71, 500 -,
The present judiciary is lamentably
wanting in the quslifi ,atins necessary TO
| give respect and dignity to the bench
and must be changed. Fortunately
this ia entirely practicable. The terms
for which the Circuit Judges were ap-
poipted are about to expire, and there
can he no difficulty in the wav OF reduc-
ing their number and salaries.
TIE terms of the Uhancellors have YET
several wears to run, but the adoption
~ the Gonstisutiona Amendment voted
on at the recent election, gives the Leg
islature full power to change the Oman
Gerry District and to reduce the numoer
ofsChsnceliors. co
The followiug is the part of the Con-
stitution to when the Amendment Is ln-
tended to apply:
SEC II The legislature shall divide tne o.aio
into convenient number of ohanceiy uls,f.o'e'
10 be composed of not more than four eonu,ies,
