THE CROP PROSPECTS.

The report of the Agricultural Bureau
for August gives the country reason to
rejoice in the prospect of splendid crops.
The crop of cotton promises to be the
largest ever grown. For though its con-
ditlon is not better than that of August,
$780, the acreage is undoubtedly larger.
Corn also promises the largest crop ever
raised. The average condition in Au-
gust, 1879, was 30, and the yield proved
to be 2S bushels to the acre, while tie
expected yield this year is from 26 to q
bushels, but the difference in acreage is
doubtless much more than I per cent.
Oats promise to exceed the yield of last
year, when the crop was the largest ever
grown. OF potatoes and tobacco, full
crops are foreshadowed.
There is the greatest interest in tt G
wheat report, for about that crop NEST
extraordiny stories of injury have been
circulated of late. The bureau reports
that injury has been sustained in some
localities, mainly in Wisconsin and Min
nesota, but calculates from its extensive
information that the loss will be about 0
per cent. in Minnesota, per cent. in
Wisconsin, 4 per cent. in Iowa and per
cent. i'll Dakota. These statements con-
trast strangely with the recent announce
ments. professedly from officials in the
different States. The bureau, however,
reports III brief that the yield is likely
to be only 5000, 600 bushels lower than
was expected July 1, when the report in
Dictated an aggregate yield of 1868, 600, 900
bushels. If so, the yield this year will
be about 357, 900. 900, which, with the
supply remaining from last year, will
considerably exceed the probable de-

The Supreme Court of Texas has Just

prives eloquent lawyers of their chief
weapon of attack. A mau injured On a
railroad recovered verdict for fifteen
thousand dollars mainly through the
efforts of his lawyer in denouncing the
"rich corporation" But the Supreme
Court has granted the latter new trial,
on the ground that counsel had unduly
aroused the prejudices of the jury by his
abuse Of the defendants. II this is to be

At the last meeting of the French
Academy of Medicine DR.. Brown-Se-
quad related very remarkable instance
OF the power of sympathy which came
within his recent observation. A little
girl was looking out of window
iii house in the B.tignolles a few
days ago. The lower sash was raised
and the child had placed her arms on the
sill. Suddenly the support on which the
sash rested gave way and the window
fell with considerable force on the little
girls arms, inil.cting severe bruise.
Her mother, who was in the room at the
time, happened to look toward the win
dow at the moment of the accident and
witnessed 1t. She tainted with fright
and remained lnSensible for minute or
two. When she recovered she was con-
scious OF a severe pain in both arms, and
on examining the seat of it she was
amazed to find on each arm bruise cor
responding in position to that left by the
accident on the child's, though more ex-
tenSive.

What Sporting Men Rely On.

WHAT squirting "eh NeIy VII.
When Lewis r. Redmond the South
Carolina moonshiner, concerned after
for eight years eluding the government
officials, was asked to surrender, he ex-
claimed:
'Nevcr, to men who fire at my back!"
Before he was taken, five bullets had
gone clear through him, but strange to
relate, he got well, in the hands of a
rude backwoods NURSE
By the way, if Garfield had been in
the hands of a backwoods nurse, he
might have lived. A heap of volunteer
testimony against the infallibilty of the
physicians has been accommodating of
lite, and people are encouraged to do
their own doctoring more and more. 1t
is cheaper and quite as certain.

Joe Goss was covered" few weeks
ago and he tumbled, and so did Dan

they should have been lively and drawn
first. They could easily have disarmed
the monster had they covered him with
that dead shot-War safe cure,
which, drawn promptly, always takes
the prey. 1t is doubtless true that sport
ing men dread this enemy more than any
mishap of their profession, and presum-
ably this explains why they as rule are
so partial to that celebrated dead shot"
Redmond was right. No man should
surrender when attacked in the back.
He should draw, face about and pro-
coed to the defence, for such attacks SO
common among all classes, will fetch a
man every time unless ''covered' by
that wonderfully successful dead shot"

The botanist of the Ohio Agricultural
Station has been making estimates of
the number of seeds found upon a single
plant OF several of the most obnoxious
weeds grown in that State. In the shep-
herds purse he found that the number
of seeds in each silicle or seed vessel
varied from Is to 81 average about 90
AMI 1,5G0 silicles were counted upon a
medium sized plant, making the total
number of seeds per plant 81, 800. Com
putting in the same manner, he estimated
the dandel:on to contain 10. 103 seeds in
each plant; wild pepper grass, is, 400;

Ayers Sarsaparilla.

Since then Mr.. LELAND has recommended
AYERS SARsAPARILLA in many similar
cases, and he has never yet heard of its fail
ure to effect radical cure.
Some years ago one of Mr. LELAND's farm
laborers bruised his leg, Owing to the bad
state of his blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump appeared on the injured limb. Hor-
rible itching of the skin, with burning and
darting pains through the lump, made life
almost intolerable. The leg became enor-
mously enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities of extremely
offensive matter. No treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Mr.. LELAND's direc-
ton, was supplied with AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA, which allaycd the pain and irritation,
healed the sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to use.
