LETTER FROM ILLINOIS.
Correspondence of the Democratic Advocate.
SANDWICH, ILL.,, March 25th, 1878.

SANDWICH, ILL.,, March 25th, 1878.
Sandwich is a beautiful little town, situated
in Dekalb county, Illinois, numbering about
2500 inhabitants; the C. B. and Q. railroad
passing through the centre of the town and
trains running AT all hours of the day; the
southern part being built up in later years
with the l. shaped house and bay window
front. Leaving the town, going south, we
find a beautiful level country, with as fine
buildings as any State can afford, as the peo-
pie commence TO see what they are living for.
The weather for the last few weeks has
been exceedingly fine, giving the farmers
good chance to sow their spring wheat and
oats. Although spring setting in one month
earlier some of them are blowing for corn.
See them come out of a morning, with their
teams hooked to riding pillow, jump on, take
up their checks and start off the same as a
Marylander would when he goes to take an
evening drive. Who would not like to be a
western farmer when he can ride while plow-
ing, planting and working the corn? All
they want il . machine to hask It of the stalk
while standing in the field, and then they will
be fixed. As raising corn and iattening hogs
seem to be the chief industries of the farmers
in this county, wages have fallen to some ex-
tent on account of the price of pork being
low, and still some cholera in the neighbor-
hood; but still there are plenty of hands hunt
ing work No Boys, there is no punching
first in the right and then in the left ribs, or
pulling out from under stumps in this country.
Right here l viii tell little incident which
happened to myself few days ago IL went
to the field to strike furrow for oats and up
jumped rabbit, stopped my team and
commenced looking for a stone to throw, not
finding any, looked where the rabbit was, and
saw him sitting some distance ahead looking
back at me, feeling somewhat cheap went
on with my work. Jw.s.

The WEATHER.-A hackneyed subject, we
grant, but when its vagaries are SO remarka-
bic as they have been, of late, one can scarcely
help making allusion to them. March had
been quite spring-like and bland up to the
oath, Sunday last. On that day we had March
and April blended, but in an inverse order.
The morning was like an April day, warm
and showery. A thunderstorm passed over
between 10 and II o'clock, breaking off with
a clustering Northwestern, which continued
until Monday evening. On Monday morning
the ground was hard frozen aud the ice nearly
an inch thick. People who fancied that
March was going to pass away so mildly were
rudely shocked by Mondays cold. They
passed along the streets hurriedly, muffied to
the ears in their wrappings, while the wind
rudely shook the folds of their garments as
though it would tear them to tatters. de-
tachment Of tramps who marched out of town
bravely, toward the north, turned their course,
right about face, and travelled south toward
Baltimore. 1t was too much for even these
hardy birds of passage, these land cruisers, to
face the cutting Northwestern, so they wore
ship, turned right about and began to scud
before the wind. The temperature moderated
on Tuesday, but ice was abundant in all the
streams. On Thursday it became warmer,
followed by gust, clearing Northwestern,
and lower temperature.

LADY RosEBERRY's BLUE Bloom. Several
OF our contemporaries profess to believe that
the marriage of Miss de Rothschild to Lord
Roseberry, and her consequent elevation to
the rank of peeress of the British realm, is
a triumph for the Jews. The Jews are not
likely so to regard it; mirabile dictu, they
claim that the Jews are the noblest of all the
nobilities. Lady Roseberry ks bluer blood
than her husband; her family tree is much
more ancient than his; to quote Disraeli, her
ancestors were princes in the Temple when
Lord Roseberry's ancestors were savages in
the woods. The Jews will hold that all the
advantages of the Rothsehild- Roseberry mar
riage are on the Roseberry side of the house

The Baltimore Sun of Friday says The
warlike news from Europe yesterday was the
theme of leading interest in the Baltimore
commercial circles. The grain markets were
decidedly stronger, and wheat and corn were
higher, in sympathy with the excited feeling
in the West. The stock of grain now in Bal
timore is unusually large, viz, 1865, 1858
bushels of corn and 424, 094 bushels wheat.
The grain carrying feet in port has been
considerably augmented in the past two
weeks. A British steamship arrived yester-
day and another in the Chesapeake, both to
load grain. This concentration Of vessels
here indicates an increased movement OF
grain to Europe, which may, however, be
temporarily checked by the unsettling of
prices incident to the warlike news.
