Cornell. the obstreperous Naval OFF,

Cornell, the obstreperous Naval Off
Ger OF the port OF New York, has claimed
down somewhat, and instead OF raising
the question whether he Is ''vassal
or peer" and forcing decision with
the fierce resolution he at first assumed,
he changes his tone and roars you "as
gently as a sucking dove" A special
to the World from Albany says:
A. b. Cornell passed through here to-day In
company with Senator Tobey. During his
detention here Mr. Cornell was visited by a
number of friends, with whom he conversed
freely relating to the retention OF his position
as Naval Officer OF the Port under the Presi-
dents civil service order. From them it has
been ascertained that he will remain at the
head of the State Committee until the conven-
ton meets in September, at which time his
term as chairman of the State Committee ex-
pires. II any disposition Is then shown to
re-eleet him he will decline on account of his
inability to attend to the duties of both places

committee chairman during a year when nc

10 THE PUBLIC.

We feel 1t due to ourselves to notice that por-
ton Of the Hon. John McCaffreys communities
ton to the Council, on the 4th met which refers
to us. The Administrator of improvements
has proceeded under misrepresentation of
facts, and has. In consequence. done us, per-
haps unintentionally. great injustice.
We commenced repairs on the wharves In
May last and since then have gone on steadily
with the work. In the First District we have
done an immense amount Of work, which has
received general commentator for the excel
lent material and Workmanship. In the Second
District, as well as the First we have had urge
gangs Of men employed. and they are still at
work there making satisfactory progress.
The repairs In the Third District were neees-
sarily delayed by the caving of the 1evees, and
the City Surveyor eoneurred with us as to the
necessity of the delay. The wharves in that
district will be ready to meet the demands Of
commerce before vessels arrive to occupy them.
For several months the shipping In port has
been very small but. OF the came time. there
has been ample wharf room TO ACCOMMODATE
THREE on FOUR TIMES AS MANY MORE SHIPS.
We are anxious to do all we can to hurry up the
| repairs In the Third District: the delay. as
before explained. was UNAVOIDABLE we could
not overcome the force which Nature exerted
against u.s.
The repairs. In general were commenced

IN ANY PREVIOUS YEAR. though the work has. to

COTTON PICKING.

A Northern man, who Is planting COT
ton in the South, has said to corre-
spondent Of the Cincinnati Commercial,
that the great need Of the South is
labor, of which the North has dam
gerous superfuity just at this time.
"We need" says he, thirty or forty
thousand laborers to pick our cotton,
with steady employment for four
months. There Is no mistake about it ;
that is the place for them-not the
tramps. I wouldn't have them about
but the class that really want work and
cannot get it in the North. We lost
one-fourth Of our cotton crop in 1867
plowed it in because we had not help
to gather it. 1t was loss to the coun-
try; and If we lose hundred thousand
bales this year for want of hands to
gather it the country suffers as great a
loss as if property of that value were
burned up"
Cotton picking is very simple man
ual work, which can easily be learned,
and in which any one can acquire prof.
cheney in short while. Now is the
time to come, for our fields are ripening
with the heaviest yield they have ever
known perhaps. Any man or woman
can easily pick, with few weeks prac.
tice. from $50 to $50 pounds per day, and
the average prices paid are 81 25, and
the hands feed themselves, or ST and
board per hundred. As general rule
the best average cotton pickers are
women, so that families may find EN-.
ployment here until December. by which
time they will be able to look around
and make arrangements for the coming
year. Let all Industrious, honest peo
pie that cannot get work in the NORTH
come to us. We have work for all such
but only long rope and short shrift
for the tramp and yagabond.

THE CROPS.
REPORT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF
AGRICULTURE FOR JUNE.


The June report ofthe department of
agriculture indicates a better prospect
than usual for wheat. The report of
June, 1875, made the average for the
country thirteen per centum below the
standard of normal condition and subse-
quent returns of the condition and yield
were still lower, forecasting the scarcity
which has occurred. The average for
winter and spring wheat together is this
year one hundred; winter wheat being
above that figure, and spring wheat be-
low it. ll rH a..4I'Yf
There are 277 counties reporting win
ter wheat in full normal condition 494
above 100, and 1S3 below it. OF the
spring wheat counties 92 report 100; III
above, and l57 below. The state aver
ages are as follows: e1a --ta.
Maine 101; New Hampshire, 102; Yer
mont, 102; Massachusetts, 100; Rhode
Island, 100; Connecticut, 103; New York
los; New Jersey, 100; Pennsylvania, 9S;
Delaware 81; Maryland, 103; Virginia,
100; North Carolina, 100; South Carolina
9S; Georgia los; Florida 100; Alabama,
81; Mississippi, I07; Louisiana, 103; Texas
ITO; Arkansas, 106; Tennessee 81; West
Virginia, 107; Kentucky, 108; Ohio 115;
Michigan 100: Indl ina, 112; Illinois, 105;
Wisconsin,, 81; Minnesota, 95; Iowa Io2;
Missouri, 10; Kansas, 99' Nebraska 104;
California so; Oregon 100. Returns
from California indicate half of fall
crop from deficiency of winter rainfall.
Fewer Injuries from insects and rust
are reported than usual. In the Ohio
valley every return is favorable. In
Pennsylvania and Tennessee the slight
depreciation is caused by the Hessian
fly. .l
The only serious injury is caused by
the destructive grasshopper of the plains.
This pest has been most injurious in
Minnesota, Matching numerously in all
the settled portions Of the state through
four degrees of latitude, from Becker
county, to Freeborn, on the southern
border, and including all west Of the
third tier of counties on the Iowa
| line. The combined efforts of farmers
will prevent large proportion of the
| loss. t' r'
"Hopperdozers" destroy at the rate of
five bushels of grasshoppers daily in sec
tions Of greatest abundance. In the wes-
tern half Missouri, and throughout the
wheat fields of Kansas and Missouri,
losses are reduned 70 a minimum by the
effect of wet and cold weather after
matching, and subsequently by the sue
cessul warfare of wheat growers. Heavy
destruction of wheat by grasshoppers
has occurred in Texas in certain locali-
ties.

Old Testament, and he who delivered
the sermon on the Mount. No people

the Jews. From the days of the Roman
emperors they have repeatedly been
denied the commonest rights of hu>
manity- They have been shut up,
heeced. cheated and prosecuted by the
people ~ho wished to wrest from them
their supposed riches. The clergyman
mentioned the prosecutions in Spain.
Hungary, Germany and elsewhere and
added with an emphasis which drew
forth applause. ''rhey could not be
destroyed. Hope sprang immortal in
their souls. They have marched

Disbranched, defoliated, robbed of
every precious fruit, they grew again.
They have set an example to all hui
manlty. If ever people was heroic,
this people has been. They have never
tiinched. When to save themselves
they have been obliged to conform to
the outside show of Christians, they
have ever been faithful to the religion
of their fathers. The Jewish statesmen

there is great danger that resolution

have met to send delegates to it, but one

accompanying the President to Boston,
left tonight in hot haste for Iowa to see
what he can do to bring his party friends
up to the rack. Iowa Republicans here
declare the most he can accomplish will
be to secure silence instead of denuncia-

PEACHES IN GEORGIA.

The Dalton Citizen give some curious
facts in regard TO the peach crop in
the Northern portion OF Georgia. In
Dalton, and Immediately around the

heavy for eight or ten years; hut few
miles from town, beyond Johns Noun
tain, in wuat is known as Dogwood
Valley. it is said that scarcely peach
can be found on any of the thousands
of trees in that locality. while in East,
Armuchee Valley, Walker county,
four or five miles further West, the
prospect for an abundant Ayitli of
peaches is seen in every direction
Again, going Northeast from Dalton,
the peach trees are full of fruit for
several miles. and then there is a skin
of two or three miles, after which
plenty of this delicious fruit to be sec n
but beyond this no peaches are found
(save on the limo of a solitary tree
four or five miles Southwest of this,
which is loaded down with fruit. and
which, resting on the top OF house.
is said to have been imbedded IN snow
for about two weeks in Jauuary,Dultil
the Federal road running parallel
