The agricultural department at Wash
ington has issued the following report of
crops, dated June "a:
The June report of the agricultural
department shows in the acreage of oats
n decrease of about four per cent. The
general average is 81 against lob last
year. The condition is unfavorable in
nearly all sections of the Union.
The decrease IN the acreage of rye was
about four per cent. New England full
New York only 80, and Pennsylvania 49,
Barley is low generally; the average is
IS, while in 1878 it was 102.
Corn is backward owing to the drouth
in five or six localities the seed did not
terminate.
The condition of clover is very low all
over the country, except in the New
England States and those bordering on
the Gulf of Mexico.
The prospect for a good crop of fruit
is gloomy, late frosts proving fatal in
many regions.

l could not keep my eyes from her
sweet, plying face. I saw her whisper
to him, he bending little to catch her
words. Later, I found out that she was
asking him if he knew his 'piece" now,
and that he answered yes.
When the young man next on the list
had spoken, and while the band was
playing, the child, to the brothers. great
surprise, made her way up the stage
steps, and pressed through the throng of
professors and trustees and distinguish
ed visitors, up to the college president.
"If you please, sir" she said with a
courtesy, Twill you and the trustees let
my brother try again? He knows his
piece now"
For a moment the president stared at
her through his gold-bowed spectacles,
and then, approaching the child's petit
ton, he smiled on her, and went down
and spoke to the young man who had
failed.

THE ROYAL WEDDING.


For the benefit of the ladies we clip
the following from the lnter-Ocean Ca
BILE report of the golden Wedding OF
the Emperor William and Empress Au.
gusta, of Germany, last week:
The entrance of the Emperor and EN-
press was the signal for a profund Obies
ance on the part of the guests. The
splendOr of the German court, now the
most brilliant in Europe, was displayed
at its height. The dresses of Princesses
and Grand DuchQsSes were of all hues
embroidered in silver and gold. Some
of the trains were fifteen feet long, each
being supported by two pages. Satin
jewels, velvet and ermine were the prev
alent attire of the elder ladies, while the
younger wore delicately cOlored and
costly fabrics, Ornamented with dainty
flowers.
The Empress wore a dress of orange
cOlOred satin, a gold wreath crown, a
tiara of diamonds, fabulous diamond
necklace, a jeweled stomacher and brace
lets. Her stately train was upheld by
four ladies of honor.
The Emperor was in uniform. He
walks slightly lame, the result of his
recent fall, but he looks like the iron old
Kaiser that he is.
After the first formal obeisance came
the familiar greetings in the true Ger
man style.
The ladies who approached the EN-
peror was saluted, the younger on both
cheeks. This was an honor also extend
ed to younger male relatives The Elm
press kissed the lips of the ladies, ex
tending her hand to princes and grand
dukes who kissed it with antique grace
Among those who had this honor were
the Duke of Edinburg, who wore the
uniform of a Prussian general; the
Duke Alexis and the Grande Duke Mi
chael. The exchange of these salutatiOns
occupied half an hour, and were purely
domestic and fraternal.
Then the Emperor and the Empress
led the way to the chapel, where, in from
of lofty crucifix of gems, they exchang
ed the rings, as fifty years ago, and re
ceived the pathetic and impressive bene
dictions of the officials and clergymen
Around them stood, with bowed heads
the guests.

From lips that Sinai's trumpet blew

From love OF man thy hate OF wrong.

The life below is life above;
Thy mortal years have out begun
The Immortality Of love.

But duty, mora than crown or palm,
Its own exceeding recOmpense.
Go up and oni thy day well done,
Its morning promise well fulhIled-
Arise to triumphs yet unwon,
To holier tasks that God has willed.
Go leave behind thee all that mars

Or suffering spirits urge their plea,
