RiPoKTs from the West as to the spring
wheat crop are full and encouraging. 10
New England there is 20 far an excellent
prospect q. good hay crop. The Winter
was mild, snd # We had nc snow to protect
the gra--. 50 We had not long-continued
and severe weather either ss to the degree
OF cold, or the raking northwest winds.
There has been rain enough to start the
growth. and it has been sufficiently warm.
Upon this crop in this State almost every
thing in the agricultural line depends. 1t
is our main crop. With good hsrvesrs this
year We shall have one Of the most impor-
tsnt gusrsbties Of revival of business.
Already our farmers arr plOug hing, seeding

To EUROPE BY TIE Imam LINE-The
Iuman line. will sail from New York on the
4th day of May, with the last. as well as
the most attractive exhibit of American art,
culture and harmony that this country will
send to the Paris exposition. We refer to
the proposed departure of Gilmoro's cclo-
brated band of the 22d regiment of New
York. This representative band of America
is composed of 65 members. under Mr..
Gilmore's personal leadership, and they are
to give series of concerts in the principal
cities of Europe. After tour of the Con-
tinent they will go o the Paris exposition.
and take part in the band contest in that
city. They may safely anticipate crowded
houses in their tour, as they will only re-
main one or. at most, two evenings in the
greater number of cities to be visited. Mr..
Gilmore brous bit to our shore the best bands
of Europe, and ho is now preparing to re-
turn the visit, and to show how much we
have improved in tina. branch of music by
their good example.
Asa number of our readers contemplate
a trip to the Paris Exposition this Summer,
the following facts relative to one of the
Oldest and most popular line OF steamships
to Europe will be of interest at this time.
The Inman fleet comprises eight frst-class
steamers, those in service averaging over
four thousand six hundred tons burden.
Their steamers are built in water tight COM
partments. and are among the largest,
strongest and fastest on the Atlantic. The
principal state rooms are situated amid
ships, replete with every comfort. The sa-
looms take up the whole width of the ship,
and are lur1riously furnished. we'll lighted
and ventilated They frequently make the
passage between New York and Liverpool
10 less than eight days. sailing Thursdays
and Saturdays from the former city. En-
gsgements for passage by this favorite
line have been made many weeks in advance
OF time of sailing. The City of Berlin, which
leaves May 4th. with Gilmore's band, has
already had some two hundred saloon pas
sengers booked, while some one hundred
more can be accommodated. Round trip
tickets BY this line may be had from New
York to Liverpool and return, at very rea-
sonable rates, and good for one year. For
further particulars address the New York
agent of the Inman line, John G. Dale,
