The busy season is upon U.S. with the mercury
in the nineties The prospect for a wheat crop il
very good and harvesting will begin the last of
this week. Oats need rain. Corn is doing well,
the stand being remarkably good. The canning
business has added another crop to the farming
industry, and this season very troublesome one.

The PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATIC Con-
vENTIoN.-The Democratic convention of
Pennsylvania, which met this week, was
composed of the most respectable and har-
monious body of men that ever assembled
at political meeting A sound and conser-
vative Democratic platform was adopted, and
Robert E. Pattison, of Philadelphia, was
nominated for Governor, amidst the greatest
enthusiasm. Mr.. Pattison is Marylander
by birth, the son of the late Rev. Robert H.
Pattison, popular Methodist clergyman of
the old Philadelphia conference. He was
born at Snow Hill, Worcester county, and is
not yet 80 years old. He has been city con-
troller of Philadelphia for two terms, and his
administration of the Office has been marked
by singular ability, integrity and firmness
1t appears to be settled that Chauncey
Black will be nominated for Lieutenant Gov
ernor, and j. Simpson Africa for Secretary of
Internal Affairs.
With platform so sound and candidates
so able, there seems to be strong probability
that the Democrats will sweep Pennsylvania
next fall.

Guiteau's Fate Sealed.

The decision of the Cabinet not to interfere
with the execution of Guiteau seals his fate
irrevocably. All appeals for reprieve have
been in vain and to-day friday he will be
hung beyond doubt There has been such
overwhelming testimony with respect to the
sanity of the murderer that none can now
hesitate coming to the conclusion that the
act was committed with the utmost deibera-
ton. No new trial could have been reasona-
bly, granted. If he was not in his right mind
when he committed the murder, he is sane
now. If he is deranged, certainly for the
benefit of humanity he ought not be pardon.
ed and set at liberty, lest he do more mischief.
AS for the conflict of testimony. there are
liable to be contradictions in every case. The
frequent bursts of passion to which Guiteau
is constantly giving way and his theory of
inspiration do not prove that he is crazy, but
the inference evidently is that the insanity
is altogether sham.

Wheat and oats are both looking well. but are
infested with green insect, apparently some
species OF plant louise. FROM present appear
will be harvested before the hay. Corn is stand
inG well, not having been troubled as much by
looking well in some patches they are large
enough for table use. As a rule, the farmers have
not been raising many potatoes for several years.
although Messrs. William Davis. William Bay
and others have been planting extensively every
year, with good results, Mr.. Bay prefers plant
ing In the dark of the moon 10 June. Tobacco
will not he as extensively planted this year as
last, partly on account of the poor crops of last
year. the most Of which Ia still unsold, partly on
account of the uncertainty of selling and the dis
honesty of dealers. If properly handled tobacco
will keep for years and improve with age, but
this system does not suit the cropper who de-
ponds upon his crop for his living. Tomato far
mers are busy setting their plants, which is diff
fcult undertaking, as on account of the dry
weather they are compelled to make season.
Even then great many of plants are dying

JUDGE GRAsoN's "FAREwELL."-The remarks
made BY Judge Grason in discharging the jury
at the Hartford County Court, some days ago,
have been construed by some as farewell -
In one sense of the word it was q FAREWELL
From the promptings Of kind heart and gcner-
ons disposition he wishes every one great deal
of happiness with whom it had been his pleasure
to become associated as Judge for the last fifteen
years. There was nothing at all significant in
his remarks except "to return his sincere thanks
for the kindness, hospitality and courtesy which
had been manifested towards him by the bar
members OF the jury, and citizens generally,
while he had presided in Hartford county,
The Judge was nominated fifteen years ago
with great unanimity, and accepted by all
We know of no opposition to him now, and it
Is most likely his place will not be contested
The decisions OF the Court of Appeals of Mary
land and those of the Supreme Court of Massa-
chusetts stand higher than the decisions of any
other Courts in the Union. They are prepared
with more care and ability, and none more so
than those prepared by Judge Grason.-Tops n

WHEAT HARVEST began this week, few fields
having been cut on Monday. Much of the wheat,
however will not be ripe enough to cut until next
week. The prospect for a bountiful yield contin-
ues good. No injury appears to have been done
by the aphis or green fly, which has now left the
wheat fields, and but few fields of wheat were
injured by the army worm. This insect is re-
ported to have damaged fine field of wheat be.
