DEsDIMoN1A, June 3.-We have had
great deal of rain and fears are enter
tanned that much damage will be done
10 wheat, as the early crop has already
been harvested and much more is now
ready but cannot be harvested on ac-
count of the continued rains In fact.
considerable fields of the golden chaff
are falling down, which no doubt will
he great loss to our community.
Corn is as fine as your correspondent
ever witnessed at the present time.
Cotton, though generally planted late,
Is fine enough. Oats never were better
in this section. Intact crops generally
are as good as ever before, though this
like all other sections has some chronic
cases. Some men, you know, would
grumble to be hung.

ABELINE, June 4.-The rains for a
week past have been unprecedented,
and the creeks have been so swollen
that until to-day it has been impossible
for the country people to get to town.
AT last the sun has again come forth
and the roads are rapidly drying up.
Grain crops are In consequence of the
seasonable rains very promising, and
there are several of our farmers who
calculate on thirty TO forty bushels OF
wheat per acre, and other crops in
same proportion.

GLEN ROSE, June 4.-This county
has been visited by heavy rains for
the past few weeks, but the last two
days we have had heavier rains than
have been known here for years. The
Brazos and Paluxy are booming; also
other streams are overlooking their
banks. There has been considerable
damage done to crops along the low
lands, but Notwithstanding the heavy
rains If the rain should now cease for
awhile there will be large crop OF
wheat and corn in this county. Cotton

THE MEXICAN TREATY.

This treaty Us passed by Congress adj
u1its twenty eight classes of Mexican
articles free Of duty, but nearly all Of
these classes are already on the free list,
the important exceptions being low
grade sugar, leaf tobacco and hemp.
The treaty may be termiued at the end
Of six years by either country, and 1t Is
rot probable that in that time Mexico
Will be able to make considerable sur
titus Of any one Of the three articles
nam, D. Heretofore she has not made
enough sugar to supply home demands.
In return Mexico agrees to admit
free of duty seventy three classes Of ar
tic.es. Tie more Important of these
CLASSES are machinery, sgricul-
tural implements, railway equip
meuts, seam engines, rOsd We
hicles, pumps, tools, water pipes,
bricks, tiles, clocks, quicksilver, coal oil
and petroleum, fence wire, sewing ma
chimes, knives, wool sad cotton goods,
grain, flour and meal, meat pro-
ducts, drugs and chemicals. The
chances are that the country as q whole
will gain a larger trade, but very little
of this gain will accrue to the South,
where hemp. tobacco and sugar are pro-
iuced i'm this country.
The vote on the treaty was without
regard to party lines or even sectional
location. The Senators seemed to put
each to himself the question, will il pay
US to ratify the treaty: Mr.. SHERMAN
thought Il would not, while Mr.. LOGAN
thought il would. Mr.. HAwLEY, OF
Connecticut, voted mo-" while Mr..
EDMUNDS, of Vermont, voted cay"
Messrs, Brown, HAMPTON and JONES,
of Florida, voted mo-" while Messrs.
BAYARD, GEORGE anu HARRIS voted
"ay." 1t Is impossible TO aualyze the
vote. Each Senator viewed the treaty
independently a. an economic matter
in which no principle was involved.

FARMERS, SONS.

The grandest product Of the farm is
the boys and girls. In every avenue OF
life where thrift, capacity and energy
are required, the man who pushes to the
front Is the son OF farmer. He has
TIE intelligence. There is a sort o!
broad common sense running through
his acts. He has constitution that
can endure labor. 1t is notable fact
that in the colleges of our country the
best students are the boys from the
farm. In the workshop, in the Halls
of Legislation, at the bar, in the pulpit,
ninety-nine hundredths Of men who
stand upon the summit are boys from
the farm. They went barefooted, wore
patched clothes, and worked for their
bread. Almost half of the boys in this
country reside in towns. Where are
the town boys in the race of life? Fool
ing, curling their hair, polishing their
boots, while the rough country boy Is
plurgiDg along to fame. With book
und one arm, and few extra clothes
in bis haLd, he passes the elegant home
of the town boy, and he looks in on
ease aud luxury almost for the first
time. He may be called q tramp and
he refused crust of bread. One day
be will return and buy the mortgaged

Of cultivated fancy, and no subsequent
novelist has told half 90 well the thrill
ing legends Of which 50 stirring and

prolific. 1t was given to the genius Of
THACKERAY to draw with striking
fidelity and brilliant coloring the ro-

lighter and less graceful Actions that
have followed 1t are lacking In all the

ERAY's story 80 fascinatingly brilliant

had philosophers like EMERON, who
drowned their visionary speculationsin
a sea of culture. But the common
reader has turned from these to the
milky and watery compositions Of the
HENTzEs and SoUTHwORTHs, which
are as thiunest cruel to the rich and APP
petizing literature of the olden time.
We have had Indian legends told In
the form OF romances, but the flavor OF
the Leather Stockings was as alien to
them as g tie odor Of the rose to the
scentless imitation. We have had lee
turers instead OF essayists, but even
these have been captured by fanaticism
until the range of literary thought is
dwarfed to the measure Of a political
crusade meant to mlslead the Judgment
while inflamiDg the passions Of the
multitude. The broad highway which
MACAULAY and IRVING trod, which
CoOPER and DICKENS strewed with

THE PUBLIC DEBT,

Eight months Of the fiscal year have
elapsed, and the public debt has been
reduced IS millions rs against los m /
lions in the corresponding period OF the
preceding fiscal year. The revenue for
the same period shows a falling of Of
80 millious-l2 millions in customs, IL
millions in internal revenue, aud the
balance of the loss in miscellaneous re-
ceipts. 1t is estimated that the decrease
in revenue Of the entire year will be
about 81 millions. The expenditures
have however been lessened, 80 that in
the past eight months the net decrease
has been only 20 millions.
When the calls that have beea issued
mature the three per cents. will be re-
duoed to 2l5 millions, or barely enough
to carry Us with rsdeemable debt until
1887. After that time no portion Of the
public debt can be called in until the
four AMI half per cents. mature in
1891. On the first day Of the present
month the interest bearing debt stood
at 1897 millions, aud the redemption Of
the three per cents. will therefore bring
the total below 1000 mil Oas. Ii the
redemption Of the three per cent?. is
spread over the period extending to
1891, we should not call in much over
80 millions a year. We are now "a

Physically there is no finer race on
The globe than our American women.
All they lack is flesh and blood to Civ
them the vigor and endurance they so
much need, and walking would soon do
this II they did not regard 1t as pie
beian exercise, in which the lower
classes are forced by necessity to in
dulge. 1t gives one 3 healthlul appe-
lite, which clamOrs for good, strong
food, and this makes blood, which is
so essential, say indispensable, to the
development Of both brain and Drawn.
II is q truth in mental philosophy
that when the chest expands there is
corresponding generous expansion o.
the mentalas we'll as physical processes.
Our women have fine heads, too, aud
as q general thing good lOrehesds, II we
could ever once more catch a full view
Of them behind those odiOus bangs that
never fail to suggest certain restraining
institutions.
More exercise on foot in the open air
would give our feminines more weight
and sounder flesh; they grow up so
slenderly, with no solid basis, and lack
breadth in physical and mental excel
lenoies.
IL shocks the nerves Of the fastidious
society lady to tell her she draws over

ton Of the dainty, delicate petling of

does not deepen and broaden GU;
enough either in body OF mind. She
Is wanting in the great substsntisls OF
flesh and thought, and though she

solid thought it requires to condense

sense, sud make utility grow out Of 1t.
