Crops and Live Stock.

The Agricultural Bureau has sent Out
circular reviewing the condition of the
crops and live stock for the past year.
The winter wheat crop shows light
increase over last year in New England
Gulf States, and States north of the
Ohio river, the increase i'm Illinois being
especially large, there being an extern
sive change from spring to fall sowing
west of the Mississippi.
The acreage Of winter wheat has been
reduced.
The condition of the crop at the first
of January west of the Mississippi was
not promising.
The area of winter rye has fallen off ]
per cent.
The corn crop for 1873 was one billion
three hundred and scventy-onc bushels,
an increase from twenty-nine million
bushels in 1877, and the average selling
price about five cents on the bushcl,
thus reducing the aggregate market
value of the crop about $44 100000.
The wheat crop was about 57.000.OOC
bushels larger than that of 1877. but
was sold about thirty cents per bushel
lower, so that the aggregate market val
ne was about sec, 00O, 600 less.
The high price of wheat in 1873 was
owing TO the war in Europe.
In 1873 one-fourth of the crop, or 80.
100000 bushels, was exported.
The report gives the average price OF
the cotton crop for the whole countr,
al eight and one-fourih cents pr pound.
Value of the cotton crop for 1878.
1874, 100000.
The average price of tobacco, five and
threc-fifth cents.
Total crop for 1873, estimated, $685.
100000 pounds, worth So. 100000.
Horses have increased three per cent.
but prices have very materially de-
creased.
Cows show an increase in nearly ali
the States.
Sheep have increased about five per
cent.
Prices for hogs were ruinously low.
while the increase is about five per cent
Mules increased about two per cent.

AND now comes Luther Blue, the author OF
the Caseyville resolutions, against Bulldoz-
ing, and joins the Vicksburg Herald in dis
claiming any disposition to crticise or re-
fleet upon the judicial administration of the
Hon. J. b. Chrisman. The object of The
COMET IN this controversy has been accom>
plished, and here we are willing to rest the
case.
We may add in this connection, that the
true friends of law and order have in The
COMET faithful and unwavering coadjutor,
1t has lived in vain if it has not established
a record against bulldozing of all kinds.

| ONE of our subscribers on the Mobile q
Ohio Railroad says The COMET reaches his
postoffice Sunday morning, and he makes
it his chief Sunday reading, and he wants
to know if there is anything in the Bible
against it; or, in other words, can a man
absorb THE Comet on Sunday, and still
maintain his standing in the Church
This is a very grave question. We have
never had such a question fired at US be-
fore. But we consider it our religious duty
to answer it. We have to say that in all
our investigations of the Bible, beginning
at an early age, and running through a
series of years, we have never came across
direct prohibition of THE COMET, within
its lids, and as it is the aim of THE COMET
TO conform its politics to the doctrine of
the Bible, we can see no reason why it
should not be regarded as wholesome re-
ligious reading for Sunday, and be found
in good company on Sunday among tracts
and sermons. Our conscientious subscrib-
er must not infer from this that THE
COMET proposes to supply the need of
Sunday sermon, or that it would excuse
him for not going to church on Sunday.
There can be no sufficient excuse for
direliction of this kind. Every head of
household should give society, his children
and his conscience the benefit of moral
and religious example by going to church
on Sunday. But after he has been edited
by an orthodox sermon, we would recon-
mend perusal of The COMET in erder that
the good impressions may be strengthened
and fixed.

rather heated interview with Mrs. Bruin, he
put her to flight, and succeeded in captur-
ing the cubs. He offers two of the cubs
for fifteen dollars.
