From the !State at Lnrna.

New Ulm Reoieao: Farmers in this
vicinity all report that the crops
are in good condition, except
on few low spots which have been
drowned out by the excessive rains. The
rainy and cloudy weather of the past few
days have not proved very favorable. and
it is feared the grain will rust.
New Ulm Re0teD: Discouraging re-
ports have been received in regard to the
crops in portions of Cottonwood county.
From Mr.. Skinner. of Milford, who made
a trip into the northern portion of the
county last week, we learn that the diff
ferent kinds of grain in those parts are
almost total failure. Large wheat fields
have been turned over and sown into flax
in the hope that the latter crop may turn
out more favorably. Many of the settlers
are almost discouraged and some talk of
abandoning their lands, the crops having
failed for many years in succession.
Northfield Neaos:: Reports and opinions
from farmers concerning the wheat crop
always differ more or less, but after sum-
ming up all reports we are of the opinion
that the outlook is promising for good,
fiar crop, should the weather continue
favorable. From present indications the
harvest this year will be much earlier
than last.
Delano Wright county, Eagle: Farm
ers continue to give very favorable re-
ports as to the growth aud appearance of
crops. The weather during the past
week has been all that the farmers de-
sire, and all they now ask is a continu-
ance of the same Marshes are rapidly
drying up, and considerable hay has al
ready been harvested.
The Rochester Record and Union of
July l5 says: "Within the past few DAYS
there has been notable change in the
appearance of the crops in this county.

ALBANY, July 2l.---More activity at
the hotels tonight than for several
weeks. The half-breeds ahd stalwarts
are apparently greatly exercised, the
stalwarts demanding a caucus, and init
mating they will go so far as to
vote for the nomination of Lapham.
The half breeds stand firm against the
caucus. They say to hold caucus now
will be to admit they are responsible for
the existence of the deadlock from the
first, and it is only to put them in that
position the StalWarts are
clamoring for a caucus. The stalwarts
Will claim if it was held at the commence
ment of the contest an election would
have taken place the next day. The
Democrats are also considerably eXer-
cised. They know they can break the
deadlock by simply moving to allow
the election of Lapham, but
fear to do this as they
will render themselves liable to the
charge of being bribed. Some of them
think they ought to run that risk, mas
much as then they think
they are now being made tools of
by stalwarts They say the stalwarts
while ostensibly demanding caucus
base their holding out on that ground,
their real object is to prevent Senator
Robertson taking the collectorship. They
say to accomplish this the stalwarts will
stand out till the.-31st Of December next.
The Democrats are seriously considering
whether they shall not break the dead
lock and appeal to the people to sustain
and at same time relieve from any unjust
suspicion.
