General Grant has a charmed life.
Ten days ago he sat in a railroad Car
that was dumped off bridge into a
creek and was smashed to pieces, yet
when the passengers from ether parts
of the train came to help the wounded
Grant sat in the wreck like a sphinx,
smoking his cigar. Last Monday he
started out from his cottage at Long
Branch to indulge in his usual after.
noon drive.
He IS exceedingly fond of a good trot.

Branch 10 speed his animal, as well as
to get away from the crowds that throng
the beach drive. However, to reach
the country he was forced to pass along
the main avenue, and he was there
stopped by balky team. During the
delay a saddle horse, which had been
jammed in alongside of the General,
became fractions and kicking up his
heels, knocked away the dasher Of the
Generals new carriage and broke a
wheel. The occupant quietly bundled
up his lines, chewed his cigar and
waited Tor the beast to come at
him again. Folks who saw that splin-
tered carriage lying on the roadside
did not know how closely horses
boots had hung around hero's head.

| The scholars, teachers and friend,
OF the Reformed Episcopal Church O
the Redeemer, Eighth end Monro,
streets, some four hundred and fifty il
number, spent most enjoyable day al
Pennsgrove yesterday, leaving the city
on the steamer Susie A. Mccall at {
o'clock in the morning and arriving
back at Fourth street wharf 40 81
O'Clock in the evening.
With the company were Rev. j. l.
Estlin pastor and John w. Todd must
cal director. Notwithstanding the fact
that the thermometer was cavorting
around at a furious rate, sometimes
touching the 100 point, Pennsgrove
was cool and pleasant. A very fine
zephyr breeze stirred up the tree tops,
famed the perspiring brows of the ex-
cursionists and In the aft ernoon brought
up couple of showers of rain which
frightened up vegetation and chased
the picnicers into the large pavilion,
except a company OF sta)wart ladies
and gentlemen who were bowling
around croquet balls at furious rate,
not knowing nor caring where the
thermometer bobbed to. Quite mum.
Der went out boating. the swings were
kept moving and thesmaller specimens
of humanity were intent on their in
designations into the contents of lunch
baskets.
The lunch thieves who enlivened
other excursions did not find this one
out in time to trouble it. If they had
they would have found a rich harvest,
especially if they had hit on friend
Morley's basket. A little impromptu
meeting was held about II O'Clock in
the pavilion, where some most excellent
music was sung by the choir under the
leadership OF j. ". rul !. Rev. Mr..
Estlin diSting uished hlmsell by max
ing short prayer, after which Will
mington gentleman whose name is
modestly suppressed had talk with
the youngsters which pleased the boys
roosting overhead and to which the
older folks occasionally listened. The
winding up Of his address was received
with demonstrations of applause for
two reasons, one because they were
glad he was done talking, and the
" her because he told them to break
rAuks and march right strait to the
IL Oh basket.
TIey marched after another tune
was orgsned and sung and they kept
remarkably swift time as they marched.
Dinner, and what dinner! Word
couldn't do it Justice but keen appetite
did. Mr.. and Mrs. Morley know how
to 10 things and take delight in doing
them Queen 'Vic' might have felt hon
ored in sitting down to such repast.
Hallam's eyes rolled as he hid away
the pastry and pickles beneath a
spacious white vest; Estlin's little,
moist eyes snapped as he went for the
cake and jeiley; Morley groaned in
spirit as the yellow legs disappeared
and, and we'll REPUBLICAN represent
tative-wby he didn't eat anything on
account of a case-and such a case, ,
wGdged between himself and the pas. |
tor. There were lots left. AT five
o'clock traps were gathered up, the
"Susie" was boarded by the company
and in a half hour more was landed in |
after delightful day at
Pennsgrove.

OrOp RepOrta.

WASHINGTON, July 1.-The July
returns of the Department of agricul-
ture from all the States and Territories
of the United States indicate an increase
of area planted in corn exceeding foul
per cent, or fully two and half mil
lion acres. In Ohio, Indiana and Hi,
nois there has been a loss of acreage, but
in all other States of any prominence in
corn growing there is some increase. In
the gulf States the advance has been
heavy, in obedience to the instincAoi
selt.pressrvation. The usual result OF
high price of crop, an immediate ex-
tension of its breadth of cultivation,
was prevented in the Ohio valley only
by excessive, rains and temperature
that made early planting impossible.
The condition of corn is marked low
from late planting, cold and wet
weather, and replanting after floods,
but has been improving during June,
and is generally in fair vigor and active
growth, promising far better condition
in August should the season continue
as favorable as at this date. The general
average is SO, against 80 in July laIt
year, before the disastrous drought set
in. 1t is above 100 in all the sea coast
States, from South Carolina to Texas,
In Tennessee and Kentucky, and Kan.
sas, Oregon aud Nevada stand at 100;
Maryland, Virginia and Colorado, "a;
West Virginia, 93; Pennsylvania, az,
and Illinois, 68. The State of largest
acreage stands lowest of all in con-
dition.
Upon this area and condition a me-
dunn yield producing 100000 is
scarcely possible. With the yield of
last year the product would exceed
twelve hundred millions. The range of
possibilities covers at least five hundred
million bushels, the result dependent
upon the meteorological conditions of
the succeeding eighty days.
The condition of winter whea! aver
ages higher than at any previous July
return 104 against 80 last July. The
spriEg wheat average stfuGs at 100 it,
stead of 80 in 1881. U - he prcroH-
ton of wheat to stra" SHOULD be less
than usual, or the grain be damaged
after thrashing, the crop must prove
one of the largest ever garnered in the
country.
The harvest of winter wheat on the
LIST of July was completed in the South,
and was in active progress in Ken
lucky, and commencing north of the
Ohio river. At his date it has reached
the latitude OF 40 degrees, and will soon
be completed.
Ire condition of oats is very high,
avera il Z iC@: ct rye 101; of barley 95.

AMERICANS In the Egyptian Army
10 1867 number of ex.Federal and
Confederate officers went to Egypt and
entered the military service at the in.
vitation of the Khedive, and it is now
conceded that as far as the Egyptian
army has any efficiency it is their crea.
ton. Prominent among these were
General Charles P. Stone of the
Federal army, who was defeated
at Balls Bluff; Gems. W. W. L0r-
ing and Raleigh E. Colston, Col. Thos.
G. Rhett, Gen. Joseph E. johnson .
acknowledgement, Col. Walter H.rJeni-
fer, of Maryland, and DIR. Edward War.
rem, of Baltimore, all of whom served
in The Confederate army, and Col. G. C.
Long, of Maryland.
1t was not long before the American
officers began to feel hostile pressure
and gradually abandoned the service of
the Khedive, until Gen. Stone is now
the only American officer of prominence
in the Egyptian army, and 1t is ex-
tremely doubtful he will be permitted
to retain any important command if a
religious war grows out of the present
situation. Col. Jenifdr, after some
years service, retured to Maryland and
died several years ago; Or. Warren,
after obtaining great distinction in the
medical department and having the
title OF Bey conferred on him by the
khedive, was obliged to abandon Egypt
because of his injured oversight, and is
now an eminent physician in Paris,
France Col. Long, after performing
much arduous service, returned to this
country and leCtured in the principal
clues. He is now in Egypt, but not in
the army; Gen. Colston is engaged as
military instructor in au academy near
New York city, whilst Gen. Loring,
who constructed almost all of the i'm.
portant defenses of Alexandria, is now
living in Florida, where he began his
military career in fighting the indians
