From every portion of southern Dakota
We have encouraging reports and there is
every reason to believe that the harvest
of 1877 will be an abundant n and that
the quality of the grain will be the best.
The season thus far has furnished weather
admirably adapted to the vigorous sevel-
opment of small grain and during the
later weeks we have been favored with
excellent corn weather. Grasshoppcrs
have accomplished some local injury, but
A. their work is not general the small
damage inflicted cannot be placed against
tho result accruing from the seasons
work throughout the entire region Of
which we make mention. A hail storm
devastated portions of three counties and
this cause will produce individual fail
ures. We have been favored this season
speaking in a general sense and may now
feel almost confident of good returns from
the soil and good prices for its products
Within ten days the small grain CROP
will be out Of danger and farmers will be
we'll into their harvest work.

A Portland, Oregon, dispatch says W.
II. w. Stiles, the witness whs testified SO
pointedly against Grover, Saturday, pub
lished Monday morning a long statement
in the Oregonian in which he says he has
divulged these things because.he as a dem
ocrat repudiates the : ion of tie govern
or in trying to cheat the republican party
out OF an electoral vote in Oregon. He
says the democratic party dees not and
cannot approve of such desperate expe-
dent and will repudiate the man respon-
sible tor it. Stiles made affidavit last
winter to the same statement respecting
Grover that he has now made under oath
before the investigating committee, and
CLAIMS therefore that he has done all he
could from the first to show up this affair
to the country.

Letter O Senex.

Press and Rdnner:
10 the historical records ofour State and the
heroic devotion OF our revolutionary soldiers
there are some traditionary incidents equally
worthy OF note. They were quite'des-
titute OF the plainest provisions as we'll o.
shoes to their feet and hats for their head.
while suffering in their frequent forced
marches from the scorching rays OF the sun by
day. and the heavy dues and sickly vGpor by
night. To protect their naked shoulders n
pad OF long moss was worn on which 10 rest
What a picture OF restitution and wretch
edness is here presented, all Of which was
born with patience and m~agnanimity, never
surpassed ut any timeor place by any nation.
And tits well for US % oink ana talk OF these
publications of the day.
We have another short chapter OF revolu-
tionary history OF which we should be proud
viz: In the crisis Of the danger OF American
enemy, when mems hearts failed, when all
was dark M gloomy, when thousands took
protection under royal government; the
ladies Of Soith Carolina came to rescue and
put on more than Spartan m~agnanimity IN
