A Fastidious Doardsr.

One of the proprietors of mountain
mousse IN the town Of Woodstock in'the
Catskills, received letter the other day
;, from lady inquiring very particularly
about his house, and what acco1nmoda-
tions he had for genteel boarders.
i She said that she had written to
twenty different mountain houses, and
had received answers from the most of
; them, but their places so far did not
suit her, as the society was not sutfi-
ciently polished. She desired room
on the northerly side of the house, with
ceiling not less than eight feet in height
the windows commanding broad and
expansive view Of farm lands and
mountains.
She inquired: "Have you a piano in
your house? l do so dearly love music
that could not possibly do without it.
Are your boarders as a rule cultured
people? Have they classic air? /
could not exist without classic society.
Are there any mosquitoes around your
house? Is there pond near that con-
talns noisy, singing frogs? / desire to
know this particularly, as the croaking
OF frogs did terribly annoy me last sum
mer. She closed the letter by saying
that she could not pay more than S.
per week, and if his answer to her ques-
tlons was satisfactory she would engage
room of him for few weeks the latter
part Of July.
The proprietor having no room in his
house less than $S per week, though
somewhat amused at the letter, did not
care to answer it, but finally one of the
m ri DR.
ana so he wrote to the lady. He told
her, as an index of the culture ard
classic style or the guests vino had visi-
ted he house for the past season, he
could name joaquin Miller, the post of
the Sierras; General U. S. Graut, Susan
b. Anthony, Roscoe Conkling,, DIR.
Mary Walker, Jefferson Davis with the
author of Beautiful Snow" Henry
Ward Beecher, William d. Hill and
William II. Vanderbilt accompanied by
Maud s., and for further recommenda-
tion he would refer her to them or either
Of them.

Mosquitoes were in abundance, and

THE PRESIDENT.

Although rumor prevails that slough
ing Of of the parotid gland in the case Of
the President threatens, and that there
may be consequent delay in removing him,
yet the official tulleti7s give no indication
of any Material change in his condition.
It is expected that the President will be
removed fSem Washington to-day. 1t is a
hazardous undertaking, but his critical
condition des2ands that the great risk be
taken, rather than longer subject him to
the threat of sInost certain death from the
unwholesome atmosphere of the national
Capital This W.! be an anxious day for
the people of the United States. The ma
ton will note with profoundest interest
every step taken in TIE northward progress
Of the patient. His condition is such that
while we may hope for tbs hest, we must
not bssurprised to hear of the fatal term
ination Of the experiment about to be tried.
The best Sodication OF it's success is found
in the fact aaat the President desires the
removal and j. evidently much pleased that
it is to be atte@Dted. HIS mental salts
faction Will go far toward sustaining him
in the physical trial.

Times statement is to be credited, this
vast harvest is not worth gathering The
fact that SO fair prospect could be
blighted in so short time and from the
causes noted in this case, gives new en-
phasis to the special advantage enjoyed by
California by reasen of the absence of
storms during the harvest period. The
Times says :" this is the eighth bad wheat
"crop in succession, and the failure in
each of the eight seasons is refera-
bic to the same cause-bad weather
in harvest time. The absence of such
weather in California Is equal to an in
crease in yield of at least SO per cent as
compared with the yieli Of those countries
where storms during harvest destroys
large per cent. annually of ripened grain.
Already the question of abandoning wheat
growing altogether in England is being
discussed. Other grain of course shares
the prevailing disaster. The failure of
successive barley crops has so far discour-
aged the sowing OF that cerea; that de-
creased acreage equal to pa, 600 acres in two
years is noted. Mr. Card, in the publica-
ton already alluded to, advises the English
farmers to "give up raising wheat and
corn in the face of the ruinous competi,
&c ton from America and suggests the
substitution of fresh butter, early meat,
vegetables, hay, etc. The failure of
this years crop has given fresh impetus
to the movement to restore the impost tax
on breadstuffs. Bat even that would not
meet the case, for the price of an article
cannot compensate e total loss OF its pro-
duction. The unmistakable tendency Of
agricultural industries is toward the aban-
donment OF every production to those
localities where they can be grown cheap
est. In such a contest California has moth
ing to fear from competition in growing
wheat. Her one advantage OF Absence of
storms in the harvest period would save
her, even if she possessed no other.

THE FAILURE OF THE WHEAT CROP

for eight years. The grain had ripened,
aud harvesting had even begun, when s
rain. that has been protraoted almost to
the present tins. set in. The grain has
everywhere mildewed and sprouted, and
the London Times OF the 10Th of August
declares that the crop is not worth gather
ing. Before the damage had been done
by the continuous rains, Mr.. James
Card, in his annual crop circular,
estimated the prospective whsat yield at
8, 500 600 quarters. There were at the
time this estimate was made 2. 500. 600
