that the expectations may be disappoint-

DANvILLE, Va, Aug. 17.-Reliable re-
ports from all regions of country Surrounding
this city, makes 1t certain the tobacco crop
this year will be greatly below the average
crop, and also inferior in quality. The season
has been unfavorable to this time, and no
rains can now make an average crop. Only a
short crop was planted for lack of season, and
much of that has died in the hill. That which
survived is very irregular and backward in
consequence Of the drOuth.

IT is fortunate for Minnesota farmers
that the weather has remained propitious
up to stacking time Most of the wheat
was garnered before the recent rains took
place, and but little damage has been
done. The crop harvested is far above
the average, and there seems to be no
good reason why the yield should not be
far superior to that of any former year.

BRONZE AGE IN BRITAIN.
Saturday Review.

Bronze age in Britain may be briefly
stated before we go on to examine the
process by which the various weapons
were evolved. The a 20 in which bloDz4
had, for the most purposes, superseded
stone, and had not yet given way to iron
lasted for 800 or 1000 years. Iron p'ob'
ably came into use in the southern parts
of Britain not later than the fourth or
fifth century B. c., and by the second or
third century B. G, the employment OF
bronze for cutting instruments had prac'
tica ly ceased. Thus the bronze period
in Britain may have beguN about 400 B
G. The ability is that bronze was
introduced by hostile ConQuering peo'
pie bigger and larger of bone than the
one sing people whose remains are
found with flint knives, arrow heads, and
axes in the barrows. But this invasion
must have been even earlier than 400
B. c., if We hold with Sir John Lubbock
that the Phm licians dealt with British
miners between 1900 and 1.20O years B
Z. For it is exceedingly unlikely t1aC
the P1euiclans discovered our tin mines,
and if the natives of our islands were
the discoVerers, the odds are that they
u ed the tin for making with the copper
of the same regions to the manufacture
of bronze.

A Great deal of fruit is being shipped

Among the shipments has been car

from decay, so that it can be shipped
East by slow freight Id sold off as the

The car load shipped goes to Philadel.

though hereafter it is the pl N to ship by
slow freight, as it will reduce the charges
over one.half, or from 81 100 to $500 a
car load to New York, If fruit can be
picked in this inexpensive manner, and
preserved indefinitely and shipped any
where, the business viii develop. Fresh

In recent speech on Democracy, u
in England, Lord Roseberry said that
PERSONS who elected by free choice a
moderate intellect to represent them
were better off than those who had q
leviathan intellect placed over them
.gainst their will. II the Government
was entrusted to the people, the manner
in " ,ich it would be administered de-
pended on the Deople themselves. A
limited class in possession of great pow
er, and great privileges, and great
means of enjoyment, to the exclusion OF
a much larger class, was in the position
of a person getting high rate of interest
f'r his money, which was attended with
great danger, and who soon began to
long for the sweet simplicity Of the three
per cents. He had an honest belief in
the practical good sense of his country
men, and he believed that it was by eH
tending to them a share of political
power that the foundations of society
would in the truest sense be strength
ened.

The murderous report OF Guiteau's pis

lightning stroke that shivers the tallest
monarch of the forest is the eliminating
vengeance of the distempered air we
breathe. The spoils system of our Gov
ernment is regarded by many as OF vast
ly more importance than the Govern
ment itself, and it has bred swarm of
pestiferous placemen who would create
or destroy Presidents by every means
short of murder to serve their selfish
ends. They reCklessly, defantly, boast
fully murder law, honor and every attri
butte of virtue to secure the spoils of
mower. aud if the Grants, the Conklings
the Arthurs of the party can publicly
commend such crimes. and toast and
greet with eloquent applandits the Dor
sevs who come crowned with the bis

spoilsmen the Guiteau's have but to ad'
vance a step beyond the leaders Of the
spoils system, to make the assassination
of rulers logically follow the assassina.

President Garfield m,t rhis Issue brave

SUNLIGHT A NECESSITY.

Sun baths COST nothing, and are the
most refreshing life.giviDg baths that
one can take, whether sick or well. Ev-
cry house keeper knows the necessity Of
giving her woolens the benefit of the
sun, from time to time, and especially
after long rainy season, or long alb
sence of the sun. Many will think Of
the injury their clothes are liable to,
from dampness, who will never reflect
that an occasional exposure of their own
bodies to the sunlight is equally neCes.
sary to their health. The sun baths cost
nothing, and that is a misfortune, for
people are still deluded with the idea
that those things only cen be good or
useful which cost money. Let it not be
forgotten that three of Gods most be
nefcent gifts to man-three things the
most necessary to health-sunlight, fresh
air and water, are free to all; you can
have them in abundance, without money
and without price, if you will. II you
would enjoy good health, then, see to it
that you are supplied with pure air to
breathe all the time; that you bathe for
an hour or so in tEe sunlight, and that
you quench your thirst with no other
fluid tuan water.
