We publish the following estimates OF the
wheat crop for 1879, OF the townships men,
toned:
Hartford-Average at least Is bushels. We
have tremendous crop OF verything; aver
age in 1877, OIL.
Lawrence-lt is safe TO estimate that the
average yield will be greatly in excess OF last
year, when it was 141-7. Good judges place
the average this year at about al bushels to
the acre. The few lots already threshed fully
justify this estimate. This will make the yield
Of this township sO,452 bushels, against 81, 951
last year, with the acreage 40 acres less. The
crop in Arlington, Hartford and Hamilton is
equally promising; average in 1877 in Law
renee, 1885. in Arlington 1929, in Hamilton
1924.
Paw Paw-The average OF wheat will be
about IS bushels. Spring crops never looked
better in the world with Hs than they do at the
present time. The recent hot weather and
frequent rains have brought them forward
wonderfully. Corn is very large, rank and
thrifty, and the same may be said OF oats and
potatoes; average Of wheat in 1877, 49,.

statement on that point.
John g. Thompson was called upon by
the Republican members OF the committee
and detailed his connection with the Dem
ocratic Congressional Committee in 1878.
No money was collected from the en-
ployes OF the House OF Representatives.
The witness devoted the most OF his time

the campaign but came to Washington on
the first Of every month to see to tho dis.
bursement otthemember's salariesand did
not neglect his official duties.
