The w heat CrGp.

An eastern journal which is nearly
always correct in its estimates concern
ing the crops, says that few weeks
since there was a very generally cccep-
ted opinion that the worlds cereal
crop Of 1880 would lie largely in ex-
cess of that for years previous, and
that the out turn of tho harvest
i'll the United States was so
vast that it would he folly for Amer
lean farmers to SOW anything like the
number Of acres to wheat for the crop
of 1881 that was planted 1880. But
few journals, careful in statement,
as soon as ad,ices came to hard which
could he relied upon, stated that the
harvests would fall below popular be
lief, and that no apprehension need be
felt that wheat in America would be
ruinously cheap. Facts are stubborn
things, and cannot be pushed aside,
and while the estimates given have
been fully verified, it would be graft
flying to knew that the calculations
were not so fully realized, for if the
crop Of American wheat IN 1880 wer.
20, 0OO,0 900 bushels more than it really
is, The additional surplus would bc
sought after. Throughout the north
west, where it is predicted that the
crop would be simply immense, former
figures have been reduced until they
at present look anything but alarming
to producers.

why he was In the Peniten;farv,

An Important case was tried before
the Criminal Court Of the District Of
Columbia. An old colored man was
on the witness stand. The District
Attorney Intercepted the witness
"What is your nameW
John William sah'
care youthe Johu Williams who was
vas sent to the Albany State Peniten-
'iary for larceny'"
"No sab this John"
Are you the John Williams who
convicted Of arson, ane sent to the Bal
timore PenitentiaryT
"No, sah."
Tired Of asking fruitless questions,
the District Attorney suddenly put a
leading one.
"Have you ever been in the peniten
tiary9"
Eyes, sah."
All eyes were now turned upon the
witness. The District Attorney smiled
complacently and resumed:
Glow many times have you been in
the peniten:iaryf
"fwice, sah."
"Wherel'

How long we've you there the first

"About two hours, sah."

the attorney, rather crestfallen.
Gan hour, sob. / went there to

The attorney sat down amid the
laughter of the spectators.

medical experts you would End the

matter from the numerous vaults scat

character Of the soil and the lay Of
the land is highly favorable to such
pollution Of we'll water from causes
Ancntioned' above, and until the city
fathers adopt new and stringent regu-
lations regarding construction Of and
method and frequency Of cleaning out
,privy vaults your city will not, in my
judgment have long respite from the
fearful scourge which has carried sor-
row into too many happy households
in Your city during the PAST two years
Every old vault, so far as its location
can lie ascertaincd, should be dug up
Y and carried away bodily, the ground
fSabout the old deposit Of efeto excre-
@mcntal matter thoroughly dug over,
and a plentiful supply of lime admin

some man, or men, by contract, 70 re-
move the contents of these dry earth
boxes, either weekly or fcrtn,.htly,

the earth comprising the site of certain
towns had become so saturated with

which was never cleaned out; that

assessor and Collector.

For the REPUBLICAN,. II, r..
As the Republican nomination for
City Assessor and Collector will soon
take place, 1t is very important that a
competent mau should be selected, one
that thoroughly understands the value
of real estate, and in every way quail
fed to fill the position with credit to
himself and for the best interests OF the
CITY. Such being the fact take great
pleasure in recommending Mr.. Lewis
zebley who is alcandidate for said posi-
ton in the Northern District. Mr..
Zebley has resided for many years In
our city, ia q practical builder, and is
entirely familiar with the value OF real
estate. His sobriety and morality is
upo usstioped, and he possesses every
raouisite to make first class Assessor
and Collector. he is worthy and well
qualified for the position he seeks, and
his friends should make an earnest
atfort to secure his nomination, which
= III undoubtedly be equivalent to an
election in said District. REPUBLICAN,.

A singular Suicide.

A curious suicide occurred at St. Lou
ia this week, Mrs. Josie Langelet, wife
Of a deputy marshal, shooting herself
in the head. She was found lying on
the door OF her sleeping apartment,
her face turned upward and her form
Strengthened. Her rig ht hand rested
across Der breast, the other nand
dropped carelessly by her side. A re-
volver which looked us If 1t had fallen
from the hand on the breast was lying
against the lett arm. There was an
ugly bullet wound in the right temple,
from which the blood oozed out ana
soaked into the carpet. She had been
dead some time.
A sadly interesting feature OF the
terrible discovery is that the young
wife had made the neatest ana most
careful preparations for death: one
had donned a new night dress of spot.
lsss linen, with white embroidery, had
ancased her tiny feet in the daintiest Oh
huttoned kid shoes, and had done up
her heavy, silken, brown hair in a
large braided loop. Doubtless she
knew abe would appear handsome in
death, even with the dark scar showing
on her white temple.
Nothing more is known Of the cause M."
Of the suicide other than that Mrs: p:
T,angelet was an intimate friend OF
Mary Henderson, the young glrl , VINO !
