WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, June 5.-The Ohio nomin.
atoms continue to be the subject OF discus
sion here, and the prevailing opinion is that
the Democrats selected their strongest man.
Ohio Democrats redicule the idea OF the
Greenbackers holding together, and say
that there is not bakers dozen in the state
OF Democratic antecedants that Ewing
won't capture. Speaker Randall says the
ticket is good for $4,000 majority, and that
Ewing, as governor, will loom up conspicu-
ously as a candidate for the presidency.
while'others less sanguine, hold that the
nomination means enforcement between
the East and the West, and that the work
Of yesterdays convention commits the
Democracy hopelessly to soft money, and
makes the loss of New York inevitable.
THE MISSISSIPPI COMMISSION.
The bill providing for the appointment,
ofa Mississippi commission, which passed
the house on the 2d isn't has been consid-
cred IN the senate committee, and will be
reported to the senate, with an amendment
providing for the addition of two members
to the board: one to be taken from the en-
glneer crops Of the army and the other
from the coast survey.
KELLOGG sPOpFORD.
The witness in the Kellogg.Spofford case
have arrived from Louisiana, and the work
of bouncing Kellogg Is fairly inaugurated.
Senators held caucus to consider the ad
visibility off taking up the Warner silver
bill during the present session, and as there
are majourity in favor of it, it is thought
twill be reported from the committee on
finance at an early day.
THE LEGISLATIVE BILL
was reported to the house by Mr.. Atkins
of Connecticut, but upon the attempt of Mr.
Hawley to get vote on the amendment to
it striking out the restrictive clause, the
Democrats got scared and moved to with
draw the bill which, at a later hour, was
again offered and the previous questions
ordered, thus cutting off all amendments
and it was recommitted and ordered print
ed 1t is the intention to pass it and await
the action of the president before sending
him the army bill.
DISEASED CATTLE.
The bill to prevent the expectation of
diseased cattle and the spread OF infectious
or contagious diseases among domestic ami
mails came up in the regular order of bust
ness and Colonel Hatch, who, as chair
man Of tho subcommittee on agriculture
drafted and reported it, got the floor and,
his first effort during the session, made
speech which commanded the closest atten-
and elected favorable comments. He urged |
in the strongest terms the necessity for i'm
mediate action on the matter, and clearly
defined the authority Of the federal govern
ment to exercise general supervision over
this matter, without affecting or impairing
any sanitary or quarantine regulations in
any of the states. The bill is carefully |
drawn, and gives evidence Of a high order |
of ability in its construction, and the speech
accompanying its introduction proves that
Col. Hatch has given the subject the closest
attention and study. The indications are
that the bill will pass the house, although
It is likely to meet with more or less oppo-

End of the znlu War.

Dispatches were received at London, Eng
land, on Wednesday, stating that a decisive
victory was gained by Lord Chelmsford's
forces over the Zulus, virtually ending the war.
Lord Chelmsford remained in camp I'LL the
afternoon Of July 8, awaiting the surrender Of
the cannon and 900 rifles captured by Zulus
at Isandulas. These not arriving, he advAn.
eed and was attacked in the open country by
$4,000 zulus, who fed under the heavy FIRE
Of the British. Lord Chelmsford then advan.
eed to and destroyed Ulundi. The Zulu loss
amounted to eight hundred ; the British lost
ten killed and fifty-three wounded.
The battle was fought on July 4. The Zu-
lus, yariously estimated at from 10000 to
10000 in numbers, surrounded the British
troops, who formed into hollow square.
The Zulus charged the square on all four Of
its sides, After the Zulus we're broken by
the British fire they we're pursued by the cav
airy and utterly routed. Lord Chelmsford
burned and destroyed all the military kraals
aud returned to his camp the same evening.
Many Zulus are coming in small detach.

Cultivated Wheat.


One day before harvest, four prominent
farmers Of North and East Coventry, Chester
county, Messrs. John b. Beiif, David w.
Jones, John Ellis and William Davis, drove
to Bearville, Lancaster county, Pa, to exam.
inc the process Of cultiyaiing wheat, practieed
by Mr. Levi Croft Of that place. Que Of
their number has written for the Ledger the
subjoned interesting account of what was
seen by the party at Bearyile.
Mr.. Croft has two fields of wheat, lying
side by side, each having one half the graia
put in by the ordinary drilling plan, and the
other half drilled in, leaving a sufficient dis.
lance between the rows to allow cultivation
with cultiyator gotten up expressly for the
purpose. Though the wheat planted by the
old method is in a very promising condition
and may yield 80 bushels per acre, the cult.
waited portion Of the field will exceed this
yield at least 90 per cent. In the opinion Of
our party 20 bushels is q low estimate per acre
for the production OF the cultivated wheat
The observer is especially impressed with
the marked contrast between the two halves
of each Of the two fields. The cultivated por.
ton stands upon strong straw, at least six
inches above the nncultiyated wheat, present.
ing very lnxuriant mass of uniform heads,
well filed and from four TO six inches long.
In the drilled portion we saw many small
heads upon short straw, striving among the
growing crop for equality as it were, and so
common in ordinary wheat fields.
Mr.. Grof7s plan Of cultivation is to pass
between the rows Of wheat with culliyator
as soon as the ground is in condition to work
in spring, and continues to do so until about
the tenth of May, at which time, after the
last cultivation, he sows the grass seed, (co-
yer and timothy and owing to the mellow
condition Of tho ground il grows quickly aud
surely, as was demonstrated by the two fields
and cultivated as described. = Montgomery

Two yonng men Of our town, gentleman
from Hampstead and one from Stonersyille,
tried the speed OF their bOrses on Main street
last Sunday evening. They raised clouds oil
dust that almost darkened the streets, and

The Board Of School Commissioners held
q special meeting on Monday last, for the con.
sideration Of the subject Of textbooks to be
used in the public schools during the year to
commence with the ensuing Fall term.
After some discussion and much dispassion.
ate conversation, consuming nearly the whole
of two sessions, the Board resolved that an
order be placed on record that, without fur
Their legislation by the Board, no general
change Of toxtbooks to be used in the public
schools will be allowed this year; and that
proposal which has been before the Board for
long time, to use a specific book at lower
price, in place Of one on the same subject but
more expensive, be postponed until the regu.
lar monthly meeting to be held on Monday,
the 4th day Of August.
Before adiourning the Board directed the
Secretary to notify the parties from whom
supplies have hitherto been received that in
future The prices to be charged for text. books,
&c, shall be as low as the lowest proposals
that are now in the office, and that shall be
offered during the year. In other words, the
Board has determined that the patronage Of
Carroll county, small rs it is, shall be given
to such responsible dealers as will sell the
books, &c, of the best kinds that have been
adopted by the Board at the lowest rates.
