REwgY, Aug 2'si, 1882.
Harvesting is about completed
only very small piece here and
there remaining to &c cut, and
almost all of it will be in the stack
by the close of this week. The
threshing machines have commenced
humming around us, and the farm
ers are feeling in good spirits over
the abundant yield OF wheat and
oats. Corn is coming right along,
and experienced farmers say we will
have corn yet.
Our woods are full of blackberries
this year, and every morning can be
seen men, women and children, (the
Hon. j. w. Itewey included) wend-
ing their way thithcr with buckets
and cans to gather the delicious fruit,
Martin & Toay, of Mineral Point,

THE ATTACK ON THE QUEEN.
Her msjesty's Gratitude, ParIicu-
larlV 10 the American People
MacleaR Serene-The WOuId-be
Assassin a Recognized LunaIic.

LONDON, March An consequence Of the
expressions Of the British and foreign press
at her escape from the attempt on her life,
it is expected that the Queen will cause
proclamation to be issued returning thanks
for the sympathy manifested.
1t is reported that Maclean bears himself
cheerfully, and sings in his cell. The Brit.
ish D. ess expresses much qualification at
the manifestation of feeling by tha Ameri-
can papers, and people of all shades of poll
tics, which fulfiils the snticipations ex-
pressed here in the first comments of the
attempt upon the Queens life. The almost
universal opinion IN England seems to be
that Maclesn is lunatie.
General Sir Frederick PonsonbY replied
to Minister LOwell's personal telegram as
follows: "The Queen is much touched by
your congratulations, and desires to express
her sincere thanks"
The Empress of Austria will visit Windsor
on Monday to personally congratulate the
Queen.
LONDON, March 5-There were special
prayers and thanksgiving services in nearly
all the churches and chapels of England
to-day with reference to the Queens escape
from the attempt upon her life. Mr.. Glad
stone and Earl Granville were present at
the Chapel Royal at st. James Palace, the
preacher being the Bishop of st. d ivid's.
The Press Association understands that
the Queen was in no way so much affected
by al y message as by that from President
Arthur. The Radical journals of the Con-
tinent in general deplore the attempt on the
Queens life. A few of the more extreme
type express the apprehension that 1t will
be turned to account as argument in favor
Of reaction.

ernOr to be present and his entire sympathy
with the demonstration.

from Governor Kinkaid, of Nevada "Ne-
vada unites with your people to-day. Meet
ings will be held in ali towns OF this State to
