While the two hundredth anniversary
Of the landing Of the first German colo
nists at Philadelphia was being celebrated
in All the cities Of the land, there was
modest but interesting recognition Of the
anniversary at Crefeld on the Rhine,
whence the thirteen Mennonite families
sailed. In the largest hall in the little
city, DIR, Friedrich Kapp, a member Of
the Reichstag, addressed as many as could
find seats. He spoke Of the political and
religious causes that drove that little band
Of linen weavers from their town two
hundred years before 10 the wilds of the
New World. He praised them for going
~ they did. and as an immortal memorial
Of them, he recalled the protest they made
soon after their arrival, 10 human slavery.
He thought the noblest abolitionists In
America were Germans The address
was happily concluded by a reference 10
the prominence the Germans were attain
ing Ia their adopted home. A few days
before Henry Willard, whose father had
lived not far from CFefeld, had completed
one Of the greatest Of American enterpri-
ses In the presence Of the dignitaries Of his
adopted country and distinguished guests
from abroad.

a very deserving one. The petition which
ls signed by Governor John @. Brown,
Governor A. S. Marks, Judge Ferris and

the following very extraordinary facts: II
relates that John Dillon Is now in the
penitentiary, and was sentenced in De-
cember, 1882, 10 serve six years for steal
ing an Overcoat. IL appears that Dillon
is cutter by trade. and landed in MUIR

all day, and by night was very drunk in
deed. Happening into the saloon of one,
w o Powell he borrowed an oyercoat

Upon billions failure 10 return with

man to hunt him up. He was found at
the depot, apparently waiting for train
which was about to stop there on its way
north. Dillon was arrested, put in Jail,
and as the grand jury was In session, in
dicted for obtaining goods under false
| pretenses A lawyer was assigned TO de-
fend him, who told him he hid better
submit his case, as he would only be sent
TO Jail for thirty days. He plead guilty
and was sentenced as above stated.
Six Of the jury that tried the Ease, the
County Clerk and Sheriff Of Rutherford
county have signed the petition for Dill

There have been no special features in
crop reports, except that cotton estimates
have been Increasing, and that reports Of
the condition Of corn have been less salts
iactory. The warmth aud the humidity
of the atmosphere have undoubtedly
caused depreciation In the quality Of the
grain in many localities. Cotton esti-
mates which formerly ranged between
5 500. O10 and $3.50 900 bales, are now be-
tween 8, 10000 and 100000 bales, The
season for picking has been perfect, and
there will probably be a perfectly clean
harvest, and besides a top crop has de-
yeloped In some sections, contrary 10
early anticipations. The planting OF
winter wheat has surpassed all expecta-
tions, and II Is supposed a full average
area has been sown.
