Wilmington Crops.

DR.. J. G. McCollum, of Whining
ton, called at our sanctum this
morning and submitted for publ
cation the subjoined reports, which
are self-explanatory. AS an ex-
emplar of the statements made the
Doctor brought eight or ten SAM
Piles of wheat culled by the com
mittee and properly labelled:
One bunch Of the Red Chaf va
riety, taken from Guthrie's place,
Ii miles north of Wilmington, in
the German Colony, appeared to be
especially fine. The straw was
clean and bright, the heads large
and perfectly filled. OF volunteer
and sowed Mr.. Guthrie has about
200 acres in this wheat.
A very good sample of volunteer
wheat from Peter Traub's place,
in the same section, was also sub
mitted. Mr.. Traub has 40 acres.
Mr.. Younghause, also of the Ger
man Colony, has 80 acres. Very
fine.
Mr.. q. g. Spring, 40 acres in ex-
cellent condition.
VIM. Lewis, 35 acres, also prime
in quality.
A sample from a place six miles
below Wilmington, grown in sandy
soil and exposed to the ocean
winds, was rusted so badly as to be
entirely worthless.
SFred Kurlee submitted fine
sample from his 40 acre field.
Capt. Tucker, on Gov. Downey's
land, exhibited sample very
slightly affected with rust, but
scarcely damaged by it.
The wheat on Mr.. Banning's
place was not examined.
Col. Joseph Hamilton's crop, on
Wilson's place, was not examined
by the committee, but one or two
OF the individual members who
have looked through it pronounce
it very good. Col. Hamilton has a
tract of $50 acres in this grain.
DR.. McCollum estimates the land
in wheat about Wilmington at
1900 acres. Much of this crop
was sown upon land now cultivated
for the first time, which is known
to be not so good for wheat as older
land, yet the experiment q together
has proven very successful.
Many of the farmers have their
grain already in stack where 1t is
secure from further damage by the
| weather.
The barley crop is also spoken OF
in the most complimentary terms,
The reports referred to are as fol-
lows.

Comes of the Law.

IN SUPREME COURT, MONTANA TER.
RIToRY-JANUARY TERM, 1876.
UNITED STATES, I
Plaintiff and Respondent,
rs.
JOHN 3. SMITH,
Defendant and Appellant.
RESPONDENTS POINTS ON MOTION
TO DISMISS APPEAL.
Defendant was convicted in the
Third District Court of selling
whisky to Indians, but escaped
from Jail before sentence was
passed upon him. His attorney af.
terwards moved for o new trial,
which was denied, whereupon he
appealed to this Court.
The respondent moves to dismiss
the appeal on the following grounds
That no final Judgment has yet
been rendered in the Court below.
The Court has no jurisdiction OF
this case, until the rendition OF
final judgment, and the bringing
up of the whole record.
10 CAL, sos; Is Gal, SIS;
Is Cal, 40; 33 CAL, 4O1.
The appellant has availed HIM
self of that species OF bail, known
in common parlance as "leg BAIL -
the forfeiture of which brings the
overnment no revenue. He ha
gone to the Indian country, from
whose bourne no traveller returns
virtuous, and but few rich.
His inconsiderate departure has
deprived the Court of case, the
United States Marshal of guest, :,
and his counsel of client.
IL 1sa presumption of law that
when an attorney enters an ap-
pearance, he is duly authorized to
DO so, but that presumption is
weakened when a client abandons
his case before its termination, and
that, too, in such unseemly haste
as to neglect the parting civilities
which obtain among gentlemen of
good breeding.
This is serious case-for the
United States. The presence of ap.
pellant is respectfully but earnestly
solicited. Let the wanderer return.
Let him cease to prefer the hard
ships of the prairie to the home
comforts of the penitentiary. His
case in the District Court can then
be happily terminated. and he will
be suitably rewarded for his
trouble.
AS it is, the pleasure which the
Court would experience in hearing
and deciding this case, will be
clouded by an unwelcome sus-
picion that its Judgment will not
meet with a prompt and courteous
obedience.
The persistent absence of appel
liant is waiver of all claim to a
new trial, and betrays lack of in
terest in judicial proceedings.
There is no equity in appellants
case. His indiscretion has not only
proved embarrassing to the Court,
but has rendered the Marshal and
his deputies the jest of the world
ly-mined, who continually ask:
"Have you heard from Smith,"
Equity follows the law and the
law follows Smith; but unhappily
Smith has the percentage of an
early start, and more intimate
acquaintance with the topography
of the country.
This cause should be dismissed
and sent to the District Court to
await defendants appearance. In
that Court he left the case,
and there he will confidently ex-
pect to find it on his return.
