Talk About Adjournment.

WASHINGTON, ID. G., June Is. Both
Speaker Carlisle and Mr.. Morrison to-
day expressed the opinion that Congress
would adjourn by the middle of July.
The present plan is to do nothing eX-
cept TO pass the appropriation bills
These can be got through,it is believed, ,
by Saturday, the 18th of July. The
River and Harbor bill and the Legisla-
tive bill are the only appropriation bill.
passed by the House which have OF
passed the Senate. The former has
been in the Senate committee for some
time. The latter has just reached the
Senate. The River and Harbor bill
will probably come back to the House
appropriating Sl7 100000 or SlS,0Oo,-
600. If it does the majority in the
House will refuse to concur in the a.
mendment, and the bill will be hu0g up
in conference, where it will die unless
the Senate yields. The Post Office APP
preparation bill is now in conference,
with precisely the same prospects.

THERE are quite o number of ele'
ments which will help to make the
coming campaign of more than COM
mon interest. Besides the two old
parties there are q few other parties
that expect to take hand in the po-
litical game. The prohibitionists for
one, with Chas. S. Wolfe, as stand
ardbearer; the Independents, who will
flock to the party which places the
best and strongest ticket, in the field
and last, but not least the indignant
colored voters, who are about tired OF
getting snubbed and may run ticket
of their own. Of course, the result
of the election will either be Demo-
cratic or Republican victory, but the
majorities in either case will becrip-
pied on account of these outside inau.
ences, and at present it is hard to tel
which side will come out best. How.
ever it seems clear that the par ty
which has the greatest number of de
serters and boilers is the one that will
be left behind. Democrats, stick q
pin there.

THE following paragraph taken
from special dispatch in yesterdays
Harrisburg Patriot coutains news
about big sale of ere land in Centre
county, which may be the means of
opening an important industrial chan
mel in the near future:
BELLEFoNTE, Pa, June 23.-Nego-
tiations are now being made by a
syndicate of Philadelphia capitalists,
to purchase the tract of land known
as the celebrated Valentine property,
in the Nittany Valley of Centre coun-
ty, located near this place. The tract
is probably the largest section of iron
ore land on the Atlantic slope. The
syndicate will also be composed of
some monied men of the interior of
the State. The property takes its
name from the Valentine estate, to
which it belongs, and tc mineralogists
it has been known for years for its
prolific yield and the adaptability OF
its ores for iron-making. Its extent
is nearly $4,000 acres, and the price
paid for it will reach $1,000, 900.
The purchasers, as soon as the sale
has been consummated, will begin the
further development of the property,
which has been worked to limited
extent for the past twenty years. 1t

THE reduction of tax from to 8
mills, which was recently brought
about by our efficient board of county
commissioners, two of whom, Messrs.
Wolf and Griest, are democratic and
consequently believe in economy with
al eye single to the good of their fel-
low citizens, is step that merits and
has the gratitude of every a payer.
In reducing the county debt as they
have been doing during their term OF
Office and at the same time lowering
the tax rate they have certainly ac-
complished mere than any other set
of commissioners in previous years.

PENNSYLVANIA CROFS.
An Estimate by the State Board of
Agriculture.

HARRISBURG, Pa, June 20.-Secre-
tary Edge, of the State Board OF Agri-
cultHre, has issued the following esti.
mate OF the crops in this State for 1856.
Wheat-That section of the State in
closed by a line drawn south from uar-
risburg to the Maryland line, and an
other east from Harrisburg to the Del,
eware River, will probably give crop
considerably above the average, and
will yield double that amount OF straw
given by last years crcp; in many
places the filling will be somewhat in
terfered with by early lodging before
blooming. The increased crop Of this
section will materially affect the gener-
al average Of our State, but this aver
age will be reduced by the diminished
yield of some of our interior and north
ern counties-notably that of Centre,
where the absence of snow during win
dy weather last winter ard spring and
the ravages of the fly this spring have
reduced the crop far below the average.
We estimate the acreage of this crop at
about l,55O 900, and the possible yield
at 10 $50 900 bushels /; this is, of course,
but a rough estimate, and founded up
on present appearances and possibilities
for late frost while the grain (ate) is
in bloom may lower the yield. Most of
the crop is, however, out of the way of
ordinary late frosts.
Corn-We seldom have a year in
which the condition of this crop varies
so much in different portions of the
State. Not only is this variation great
in adjoining farms. That which was
planted in the eastern part Of the State
early enough to get fairly up before the
wet weather set in is in fair condition,
] but such tields as were planted just be-
fore the prolonged wet spell set in are
