We are Of the opinion that the fruit Is all

The wheat looks exceedingly well, and
we do not think that 1t can be frozen out
unless there is some unusual cold weather

The farmers are making all the necessary
preparations for farming, and almost any
evening when it is not damp the horizon is
lighted up with burning stalks.
Much plowing has already been done, and
oats are sown.
The corn trade seems about as brisk as

EDITOR INTELLIGENCER: We deem
it quite natural that Lafayette county
should present a candidate for the
distinguished position of Governor
of the great state of Missouri. In 80
doing let us, as good citizens, consid-
er whether we have a man possessing
the requisite qualities of honesty Of
purpose, and thorough qualification (;
one who can receive the earnest and
unanimous support of the democratic
party ill our county, aud one who
would not only call out the entire
forces of the democracy, but give
additional strength to the ticket. 1
claim that we have just such a ma in
the person of Hon. NJ. V. l.. McClel-
land. He is know WI to the people of the
county as a gentleman of cultivated
mind, of high principles and polished
address ever on the alert to serve
faithfully and well the party with
which he stands identified. Possessed
of rare judgment, tact and ability
always moderate and courteous, be
has endeared himself to the people
of his county and state. AS a mem.
Der of the last general assembly hii
sklii as a debater. and marked ability
as q Trainer and author of wholesome
laws, placed him in the front rank OF
that body; whilst his pleasant de.
meanor and polished address made
him unusually popular with his
associates. l believe | utter the
sentiment Of a large majority of the
people of the county when say he is
the maj OF all others that Lafayette
county wants, and will put forward
in the next gubernatorial race.

MT. HOPE.

We paid a flying visit to Warrensburg last
week, by way Of Hazel Hill. and if your
readers will kindly listen, we will give them
a few notes, CLEANED by the wayside. We
noticed u very considerable amount of
wheat sown In the country adjoining the
road until within a few miles of Warrens-
burg, around which place there is little
sown. The majority of whest-tields are al
most completely covered with a carpet Of
green, while the poorest we saw looked I'M
usually we'll for the time OF year.
1t is most %devoutly to be wished that those
people, as we'll us their scarcely more fortu-
nate %neighbors of Lafayette, may reap a
bountiful harvest OF wheat and other ce-
reals.
The unpicked stalk.ields, piles of fodder
and stacks Of hay along the roadside, told
of last years labor, and this winters econo-
my. Corn only 22cts. to 23cts. in Warrens-
burg. and about the same in the country.
Last winter was a terrible one to many a
poor War%rensburger. no less than about for
ty families having been supported. princi-
pally, by charity, during that season. A
great 'changeh has come over the spirit of her
dreams.' The wintor just passed has been
one of plenty. so far as food for man and
beast Is concerned, and consequently has been
quite cheap. One year ago they We're bring
Ing straw from 4 distance of twenty miles to
feed their starving stock, having to pay, at
that distance, 81 per load for it.
THE TOWN.
Very little Improvement is going on inside
the corporation in the way of buildings,
streets or sidewalks. The busy hum Of in
dustry has subsidized into an almost inauIible
whisper of dissatisfaction, Notwithstanding
the temporary relief in tne way OF TODD.
WarrensDurg, like Rome of old, is situa-
ted on her seven hills or more, but such Is
its lack of density or compactness, that one
Is struck with an air Of unsocilbility pervad-
ing the place. However, Il years residence
there convinced us that II very large portion
OF its Inhabitants were possessed of kindness
and hospitality.
HI NORMA HOO
One of our principal objects in visiting
Warrensburg was to visit this institution,
observe its management under the new fac
ulty, and pay our respects to such of our
fellow students of last year as were TO be
found. We were introduced to Prof. Os-
borne, the principal. who welcomed us kind
ly to the hospltalities OF the institution.
We weie told that ABOUT 800 pupils had necn
enrolled up to the pre."nt tine, including II
considerable number OF young pupils turned
into it from the public schools of the place,
III addition to those of last year. The num-
Der enrolled last year WAS u little over 400

AZ far "a we are personally con.

state convention to select delegates
to the national convention, aud also
nominate candidates for state offices,
as it would save trouble and expense,

season of the year; but there are very
serious objections to the plan. In

ting of party usage which the demo-
Gratis Of the state have been accus-

important campaign, we wish to see
no departure from %precedents in the

be held. Give US Jefferson City, and
