Wheat Crop.

Thus far we can congratulate ourselves
that the storms that have injured property
and grain east, south and west Of US, have
affected our crops but very little; only an
occasional field is reported as having any
amount lodged. In Nebraska the storms
Of the Tin, Sin and 9Th are said to have in
jured the crops materially. One feature
peculiar as to the wheat fields this season
IS that they arc past the yellow, golden ap.
pearance usually made while ripening;
and have assumed reddish cast. An ex-
animation proves that the wheat has
ripened prematurely, the berry hard and
slightly shrunken, this owing, doubtless,
to the extreme and continuous heat while
the heads were filling. AS to the reduc-
ton of the crop in weight and general
yield good deal of difference of opinion
exists but the most reasonable conclusion
appears to be that, although the early and
sun ripening has destroyed the plumpness
of the Lernel thus reducing its wei ght, the
general yield will be up to, if not exceed,
that of last year.
As to prices to be realized, 1t is an idle
guessing to predict. 1t Is evident that as
large wheat crop will not be secured as
six weeks ago predicted. Hail. rain, wind,
smut and rust have all done their work to
more or less extent elsewhere, thus redu-
cling the anticipated yield, but to what ex-
tent it cannot be told until after the grain
is threshed and the reports from different
localities arc uncertain and somewhat
conflicting. The California crop is being
marketed but is not uniform, some is
badly pinched,' and other lots not up to

are confident from all that we can hear
that the wheat Weld will be greater than

source will give an increase that will
more than make up all deficiencies"
Some fields yielded 30 bushels to the acre,
and the grain was exceedingly plump.
The Waila Waiia farmers are unfortunate,
their wheat fields having dried up, and
the Inter.Ocedn cites one man who put in
5000 acres, has 800 not worth cutting

Newspaper Business.

We suppose many people think
that the newspaper men are persist.

similar business position and see if he
would not do the same Suppose he rails.
ed one thousand bushels of wheat, and his
neighbor should come to buy bushel,
and the price was small matter OF only
two dollars or less, and the neighbor says,
II will hand you the amount in few
days" As the farmer did not want to be
small about the matter, he says all right
and the man leaves with the wheat An
other comes in the same way until the
whole one thousand bushels of wheat arc
trusted out to one thousand different per-
sons, and not one concerns himself about
it, for it is small amount that he owes
the farmer, and of course that would not
help him any. lie does not realize that
the farmer has fritted away all his crop of
wheat, and its value is due him in a
thousand little driblets, and that he is ser
iously embarrassed in his business because
his debtors treat 1t as small matter But
if all would paw him promptly, which they
could 60 as we'll as moi, 1t would be a very
large amount 10 the farmer, and enable
him to carry on his business without diff
Guilty. The above comparison is two true

believe the Col. will be the next choice Of

ANDREW JOHNSoN's OPINION OF

Grant IN wanting i'm integrity, wanting
in intelligence, and wanting In the will
to prolnote the good of tile
county. The little fellow il avaricious
beyond bounds. His eupidity knows no
limit. He isno statesman and no soldier.
He never displayed any generalsliip. He
marched at the hea,l-no, not at tile head,
6ut in the rear. Of an immense cofumn of
men that would have accomplished the
same results ifhe had been in the moon.
Grant was mere unimportant incident
He never showed spark Of genius.
What inspiring remark did he ever make
that slIeered his soldiers aud helped Ia
VIII, victory? When did he ever put
himself in danger, like Napoleon at the
Bridge Of Lodi, TO give courage to his
troops? He never showed single trait
Of generalship. He had no sympathy
y ith Ills meii. He never visited the hos
pitfalls. or showed any feeling for the
suffering wounded. lie was utterly re-
morseless' He was no leader. He had
no strategy 1 repeat, that Tor any gos'd
