Kentucky Crops.

Louisville, 22.-The state bureau
of agriculture of the wheat crop
states that ii 100000 bushels is the
largest estimated crop Kentucky
has ever raised. With the certainty
CT not less than 10 per cent. more in
acreage to wheat than any previous
year and an assurance of an extra
yield in every section of the state it
cannot be far wrong to place the
present crop at 12,0e0,000K to 49,
600, 900 bushels it may reach beyond
this acreage. The area Of oats is
larger than last year, and the crop
promises to be unusually fine. The
corn crop is larger than usual and
stand better than for years; the
acreage 10 to Is per cent. more than
last year. The tobacco crop is
much larger than ever before; pota-
toes, every Indication Of large
crop. Live stock is generally in
good condition throughout the state.
Stock cattle are very scarce and IN
five or six counties in the state hog
cholera mas made its appearance.
Meadows in many parts Of the
state have been utterly destroyed
by worms. Prospects for hay crops
are very slow.

HOUSE.

Washington, 22.-The House went
into committee on the bill to reduce
internal revenue taxation. White

posed to offer clause repeating the
internal revenue system so far as it
applied to the regulation, produc-
ton and manufacture of tobacco.
Morrison Qlls) spoke at some
length IN opposition to the amend
ment to remove the revenue tax on
manufactured tobacco.
Hatch( MO.)advocated the proposed
amendment allowing farmers and
planters to sell tobacco of own pro-
ductlon without payment of spe-
cial license.
Page, Aiken and Regain announced
they would vote against the bill

States court to-day Judge Hallett
rendered a decision overriding the
demurrer which the Atchison, To-

Del the Santa Fe road to connect
and pro rate with them on the
Pueblo and Denver business, both

Only brief mention was made in last
weeks COURIER of the death of Jacob H.
Plaut, because the sad intelligence was
received in Hickman after our paper had
gone to press. and the news received was
too meagre to base any reliable state
ments upon. The manner of his death is
surrounded in mystery, and perhaps the
real facts will never be known. Mr.
plaut was missing from his Wholesale
clothing house in St. Louis after 2 p m.
July 4th. and no clue to his whereabouts
was obtained until the morning Of the
9th, when his dead body wa. found in
slough in East ST. Louis-some two miles
from his business house. Whether his
death was brought about by accidental
drowning, suicide, or murder, can not be
positively known. In his case there is an
absence OF the usual causes which impel
one 10 self destruction. His domestic, aud
personal relations were, said TO be, happy,
in every respect; and so far there has
been no development in his business at
fairs calculated to rush a man into sui.
oide Those OF us who knew the genial
liberal, hopeful, whole soul disposition OF
the deceased, will be hard TO accept the
suicide theory. .1when the body was
found there was no marks Of violence
about IL, and on his person was found his
gold watch, diamond pin, and pocket book
containing some money. These facts
l.
murdered. The corOners jury report that
he came to his death by accidental drown
ing, and this seems to be the most reas.
onable conclusion.
The deceased came 10 Hickman aoouf

lie coon proved himselfa business man Of
wonderful shrewdness, enterprise, and
tack; and withal one OF the boldest and
