FRANCE AND GERMANY.-A Paris letter says ::
"The prospects of an Anglo-Russian war caused
great uueasiness hero. The French were much
too shrewd to miss the European significance Of
the conflict that threatened to take place in Asia
When England and Russia should have fastened
their teeth well in each other, the position of
France in Europe would have been extremely
critical 1t is possible, though not probable that
Germany would then seek pretext for fastening
what is considered on both sides of the Rhine to
be inevitable, viz reopening of the Franco
German quarrel; but it is probable that Germany
would consider the moment when England and
Russi. were virtually removed from the Cont.
mental chessboard very opportune for putting into
execution her long cherished ambition of includ-
ing Holland in her empire Such step would
be made in open defiance of France, and it would
be one that the French would be compelled to re-
sent al all risks. 1t is not doubted here that it
is in the power Of Prince Bismarck to prevent
war breaking out between England aud Russia.
That he seemingly preferred to let matters take
their cour>c is regarded as sinister omcn.'

THE GROWING CRoPs-We conversed
with number Of farmers from this and
house Monday. We were glad to find SO
many cheerful faces among them. Before
the recent rains the outlook was exceed
ingly discouragng, but now their hopes are
frightened. They all say that the prospect
for better crop of wheat than they ex-
pected is very encouraging. One said that
before the rains he did not expect to get
three bushels of wheat from one sown, but
now he fully expected seven from one.
Many expected to gather half crop, while
there were few who did not expect to
make third of crop. Never was the
prospect brighter for large yield of corn.
The grass has improved marvelously, and
iuxuriant growths may be seen everywhere
