From the agricultural report for
June we gather the following.
WuE AN

June we gather the following.
WINTER WHEAT.
Winter wheat has had an almost
unprecedented experience. Calam
lty has attended its growth from
germiuation to full development.
The sowing was delayed in the
East and South by drought, and
the soil was dry and %impacted,
while in the Ohio Valley it vas IN
scarcely medium condition. Late
and feeble termination and slow
growth resulted under these condi
tons. The winter was severe, and
abnormally low temperature extend
ed through the more Southern
wheat belt.
SPRING WHEAT.
The report Of spring wheat is
more favorable. The disposition
last autumn to reduce its breadth:
on account of the low price, was
checked by the loss OF winter wheat
area, and later by British Russian
war rumors
OATS.
The area in oats appears to have
been increased i per cent. "a part
of this enlargement is due 10 sub
stitution for winter wheat; in Hi
Eois the increase amounts to 10 per
cent. in Kansas, -; in OF 10 6.
The average of condition is "a,
which indicates a medium crop il
tho average shall be maintained
The greatest depression Of condi
ton is in the Southern States.
APPLES.
The bloom has been very profuse
for an "odd,' or "off" year, ana the
prospects point to a crop but little
below that Of ali average bearing
year. In New England the trees
are just in full blossom, and dis
counting future urfavorable condi
tions, the yield will be very foil.
PEACHES.
The past winter has fully demon
strated the unitness of the more
northern ATTITUDES for peach grow
ing. From the upper Ohio Valley
aud the Lake States there comes
but one report; it tells of trees all
dead, whole orchards, even in the
most sheltered situations, having
| succumbed to the severe -treezings.
In New England there was much
winter-killing and the few surviving
trees that bloomed were stripped of
their blossoms by the late frosts of
spring. New York and Pennsylva
MIA shared in a like experience.

A Terrible Fire in Cincinnati.

A fire occurred at the steam printing works Of
Sullivan g. Co.. at Cincinnati, on the 2lst inst
by which Is of the employees lost their lives
The stairs on the lower stories were at once
burned down, cutting off all escape from the
unfortunate occupants of the building Two
women leaped from the fifth story and were
dashed to death ON the sidewalk below. Two
men lcaped into the tarpaulin held by the fire.
men, which, however gave way and both were
instantly killed. A woman who also jumped
into the tarpaulin was severely but not fatally
hurt. Young Sullivan, brother of one of the
proprietors, was just on the point of escaping by
means of a rope, when girl came to the win
dow and begged to be saved. Heunhesitatingly
placed the rope in the girls hand aud she was
lowered safely into the street. He was again on
the point of seizing the rope, when second girl
came forward and again the gallant man relin-
quished his chance of life to save her. Young
Sullivan again grasped the rope and swung out
of the window, but had not descended far when
the flames from one of the lower windows
caught the rope, and the hero fell TO his death
After the flames were extinguished several OF
the girls were found lying in the rooms suffo-
Gated, but without the slightest marks of the
fire on them.

Mr.. FrelinghuySen Dead,

Hon. Frederick r. Frelinghuysen. ex-Secre-
tary of State, died at $50 on the afternoon of
the Goth at his home in Newark, n. j., after
many weeks of hopeless illness. The funeral
took place last Saturday.
MIR. Frelinghuysen was 6S years old. He
was the youngest of three men who started to
practice law about the same time in Newark
and who have become well known. The other
two are Justice Joseph p. Bradley, of the Su-
preme Court of the United States, who has
turned 20, and Cortlandt Parker, who holds a
high rank at the New Jersey bar, but has never
filled political positions.
Mr. Frelinghuysen has held number Of
prominent positions in his own State. He was
twice in the u. s. Senate-once by appoint
ment, in 1866, to fill vacancy occasiOned by
the death of Hon. w. Wright, and he was
elected to the Senate for a full term beginning
March 4, 1871, and running to March 3, 1877
Hesucceeded Hon. A. G. Cattell. While serv-
ing the latter term he was selected by the SEN
ate rs one of its five members of the Electoral
Commission which decided the disputed aues-
tons growing out Of the Hayes-Tilden Presi-
Dental election of 1876 His next public posi-
ton was that of Secretary of State during
President Arthurs Administration. Since the
expiration of his term, on the 4th of last March,
as stated above he has been growing steadily
worse, and all hope Of his recovery was long
ago abandoned

The Anglo-Russian Affair.

What the condition of the negotiations now
pending between England and Russia in regard
to the Afghan frontier has not yet transpired,
but from the action of the British Government
during the past week it is to be inferred that
so far they are not progressing in the interest
of peace. The order for the shipment of the
troops home from Egypt has been countermand-
ed, and fresh troops are being sent to that point
for possible service elsewhere" The work
shops at Woolwich and other points in Great
Britain are in full blast, working night and
day. The war ships are also being rapidly put
in fighting trim, and every part of the king
dom resounds with warlike preparations.
A rumor is in circulation, however, that these
martial preparations are being made in view
of a possible rupture with France, that country
being suspected of endeavoring to foment an
outbreak among the natives at Cairo in order
to have pretext for landing troops from trans
ports now cruising along the coast.
Russia is also actively pushing forward the
construction of warlike material. She is build
ing batteries at all strategic points along the
Gulf Of Finland. She is also protesting against
the Ameer's defensive preparations, which she
regards as menacing.

Indians on the War Path.

Early last week number of Apache Indians,
under the leadership of chief named Gero-
nimo, escaped from the reservation in New
Mexico, and have committed some frightfui
outrages. Since leaving the reservation their
trail has been marked with blood. Eight
white settlers are known to have been killed
in the vicinity of Alma. On Friday the muir
derous redskins crossed the San Francisco
River near that place, and as the settlers knew
nothing of the outbreak many have doubtless
been killed. The United States cavalry are
following in hot pursuit, and as the passes in
Mexico are guarded it is thought impossible for
the Indians to escape.

One Hans Way.

There is a colored preacher who lives near
Jasper that rules his horse by butting him. If
the animal is fractions or stubborn he takes the

falls to its knees This it generally does at the
second or third butt, when the old parson steps
behind and drives ahead again.-Jasper [Fla.)
