Crop Prospects.

Crop Prospects.
San Francisco, March 14.-The crop
reports from all parts of the interior
show but little change from the pros
pect of two weeks ago. North of San
Francisco bay the grain is in excellent
condition and an abundant harvest al
most certain. In the Contra Costa
country and the northern portion ofthe
San Joaquin valley, the prospects are
good, except on the west side Of the
San Joaquin river, but the loss there is
compensated by an increased area Of
reclaimed lands, put under cultivation
for the first time. The southern part
of the San joaquin valley has dried out,
and there will be no crop raised except
on irrigated lands. In Santa Clara
valley and in the country around Mon
terey bay the grain is in good condition,
except in the important district of Sali-
mas valley, where the want of rain is
greatly felt, though a partial crop may
be harvested with good spring rains. In
Los Angeles valley there is no hope for
a crop except on irrigated lands. The
condition is somewhat better in Santa
Barbara, the low lands showing fair
prospect, but the higher ground is very
dry. In San Diego the chances favor a
fair yield, with the usual spring rains.

The Matthews-Packard Correspondence.
New Orleans. March 14.-The cor
respondence between Stanley Matthews
and Gov. Packard, as telegraphed from
here, places Gov. Packard in an i'm
pregnable position. The letter written
by Matthews is repitition of the one
sent to Gov. Chamberlain, of South
Carolina. Gov. Packard reviews the
situation in Louisiana from the canvass
prior to the election up to date, and
shows conclusively that he is de facto
and de lure governor.

No Vacancies Exist.

Washington, March 14.-Postmaster
General Key, finding himself overwhelm-
ed with applications for Office, has
caused tho following circular to be
prepared for transmission to every ap-
plicant as the only answer that can be
given atpresent to any Of the constantly
accumulating letters:

Robertson stated that the solution Of
the South Carolina complications could
be accomplished by the withdrawal Of
troops from the state capitol, when the
people themselves would adjust the diff
iculty.
Democrats and Conservatives Of
Louisiana and South Carolina are op-
posed to a new gubernatorial election.
The President will not encourage such
election unless both parties favor the
proposition. He will, however, receive
from representative men of both par
ties suggestions i'm writing which they
may have to make. The administra-
tion has not matured any plan.

Key Retains Tyner.

Washington, March 14.-Postmaster
General Key is very anxious to have
Tyner remain as his assistant, both be-
cause Of the valuable services he can
render in that position and to give no.
tice that one of the most radical Repub-
licans in the country is to be retained
in the most important position in the
department. If he accepts, Key will
make the position more prominent than
before, and rid himself of patronage ex-
cept in the South, where he is better ac-
quainted. Tyner will remain.

The Louisi ana Question.

Washington, March 14.-Several
Louisiana Democrats left for home to-
night, expressing the belief that the
President, having heard their case,
would not do them an injustice. They
protested against a new election. Sem
ator Gordon and other Democrats to-
day likewise expressed their disapproval
of the plan. The President said, while
he was not committed to it, he was in
clined to regard it with favor, and
hoped they would consider the matter
and change their minds. 1t was the
easiest way he saw out Of the difficulty,
but it could Of course only be adopted
by common consent.

The Case of South Carolina.

Washington, March 14.-Ex-Senator
Robertson Of South Carolina, accompa-
MED by Ex-Congressman Wallace, call
ed on the President to-day, protesting
against Senator Patterson's PROPOSE
tion for new election ON the ground
that the substantial and industrial in
terests of South Carolina would be ma
terially damaged by such election. 1t
was further stated to the President that
none of the Republican members from
that state had been consulted on the
subject, and therefore it was in the ma
ture Of an independent proposition on
the part of Senator Patterson, stimu-
lated, perhaps, by Gov. Chamberlain.

p,scouraeing TO office-seekers.

Discoufaging 70 Ofhce-SeeKeis.
Washington, March 14.-Yesterday's
nominations to the Senate have little
encouragement to office-seekers, being
all but one (Morrill's) re-appointment.
Morrill's appointment displaced Wash
burne, who has been an office-holder
for twenty years, and is rich. The
whole Maine delegation desired that a
proper office be provided for Morrill,,
who leaves the cabinet shattered in
health and very poor.

President Hayes Regarding An Extra
Session.

Washington, March 14.-The Presi-
dent rather inclines to the opinion that
the army can be clothed, fed and equip
ped under existing law, and he would
prefer to call an extra session Of con-
gress for no parpose but to provide for
its pay. In conversation with gen.
tieman upon the subject of an extra ses-
sion, he gave this view Of the case, but
distinctly said he had not yet fully ma
tured his opinion. He said he was con-
sidering the legality and feasibility of
borrowing money for the payment of
the army upon much the same plan as
Morton did in Indiana during the war.

Wolf mountains are In sight to the
east. A march of 20 miles and we
turn to the northeast, leaving the Lit
tie Big Horn for q broken country. At
distance Of miles from that stream
one of the tributaries of
TULLoCK's FORK
is reached, and camp is made 14OA
miles from Fort Pease. Moving down
the left bank of the Fork. it Is found
that sandstone once more replaces the
granite, and the country becomes poor
er. On each side are rough and bar
rem hills, many of them looking little
better than the Bad Lands of the Mis-
souri,
At a distance of 1904 miles from
Fort Pease small zine timber begins to
appear, taking the place of the ash
which until now has been so plentiful,
while sandstone spurs run down from
Little Wolf mountains. Bearing to-
wards the mouth of Tullock's Fork,
the bottom presently begins to improve,
and cottonwood and ash again appear.
Bordered upon each side by broken
bluffs, steep ravines frequently open
upon the bottom--the formation indi-
eating the passage of great quantities
of water in wet seasons.
Tullock's Fork empties into the Big
Horn about mile above the junction
of the latter with the Yellowstone-a
fine little valley existing at the point of
intersection.
Testimony agrees regarding the ex-
treme beauty, fertility and varied re-
sources Of the Big Horn country.
Lieut. McClernand is enthusiastic in
its praise, while the officers who COM
manded the scouts to the interior aver
it to be the garden spot of the Yellow
stone region. That it must some day
bear an Important relation to Cheyenne
and Wyoming cannot be doubted, as its
great extent and varied opportunities
must yet draw to it large and i'm
portant population.
