The PROBABILITIES Of q Dry Season.

So far as memory serves Ia respect TO pre-
vious dry seasons, and go far as one can read
the signs Of the coming summer, the indica-
lions are strong Tor dry and fruitful season,
like 1870. III and ~, but not go hot, dry and
destructive as 1874. There is little dew and
less fog, and mould and miIdew are absent 10
q surprising degree. A light rainfall, accom-
panied With sustained summer heat, admits
OF the ripeniDg Of good winter wheat and
spring grain erops--aIwsys providing both
have good start. A dry season Is. very
advantageous to Indian corn, ah 1870, III and

not the iifat consideration, everybody would
not be wishing Tor more rain, TO benefit the
winter wheat, spring grain and grase, and
the tuecessul fertilization OF The fruit bloom.
Bot moro rain than enough to wet the ground
six inches down would be calamity, for It
would reduce the corn acreage by deierring
seeding so late that 1t would be impossible

The Eew Certificates,

The new $40 certiAcs.es bearing per cent,
interest, and placed In the hsnda OF certain
postmasters for disposal, are being eagerly
sought for all over the country. In all tho
large cities regular runs have been made up
on the postofIice departments for the bonds,
and in no instance has the supply been equal
70 the demand, Under the rule not over
hundred dollars worth are allowed TO be sold
TO ono person, and the result has been that
capitalists have employed men and boys to
take up the certificates for them.
Postmasters makiug reauisitions for the
certificates are required to give an additional
bond to the regular bond, in double the sum
applied for. Our worthy Postmaster, Oip-
tain Parker prompted by public spirit
characteristic Of the nan, and being determ-
ined that sedAlia should not be in the rear
rank, made a reqoisltIon yesterday for $25.-
coo of the bonds. He never does anything
by halves, and made up bond cert iisd TO
represent S2s0,0O0, The certificates will
probably reach here during the latter part Of
this week, and the Democrat makes the pre-
dicliou that they will all be taken in lees than
twenty-four hours --Sedalia Democrat.
