WEEKLY CROP REPORT.

if not quite, as good a growing weel
as the previous one, Judging from
the favorable reports of at least 81
per cent of the correspondents. Al
though the average temperature
was somewhat lower, and Their
was much less sunshine and more
rain. The fore part of the weel
gave considerable warm sunshine
but the latter part was cloud y anC
cool, with showers beginning on toe
4th or 9Th. The rainfall Of the 7tt
was quite heavy and continuous.
Grassee, small grains and root
crops have thriyen wonderfully
Wheat is reported as looking ex-
ceptionally strong and thrifty IN
the wheat sections of eastern Wash
iugton, winter wheat is beginning
to head, spring wheat is a foot high
or more. The rain has been bene-
fetal to potatoes and they have
started up wonderfully. Beets and
similar vegetables have looked
sickly, but are now improving.
Farmers will have a hard battle
with weeds, the weather having
been most favorable for their
growth. Glover was already so
heavy in parts OF the western sec
ton that it has been been beaten
down by the late rains; it is prob
ably not materially injured, and a
little dry weather would raise it up
all right.
This is the beginning of the
strawberry season, and the weather
has not been at all favorable for the
ripening of berries. Warm, sunny
weather is needed Still, though
ripening slowly, the berries grow to
a large size.
Pastures were never finer than
now, and the produce of diaries is
abundant.
A frost occurred in several local
tiles on June /, which was in some
places a white frost, but no damage
has resulted.

The present voyage of Ii Hung
Chang brings to memory the trials
Of Chang How, once Chinese EN-
bassador to France, remarks the
New York Times. In 1870 he
vas sent to Europe to settle the
contentious which had arisen fol-
lowing the massacre OF Tien-tsin,
When Chang How left China the
French empire still existed; when
he landed in France the empire
had been overthrown, and he did
not know to whom he should adj
dress himself. At Marseilles they
told him that government had
been installed at Tours. Chang
How went there as soon as posi-
BILE, but found that NM. Cremieux
and Glais Buzoin, who then rep
resented the Government, had
gone to Bordeaux. "Let us 90 to
Bordeaux" said Chang How, phi
losophically, but when he arrived
the old difficulty arose - to whom
should he present himself, Gre
mieux or Admiral Fourichoir ?
Ne one could tell him. Gambetta
was coming in balloon, but it
was impossible to reach him.
Then Chang How went to see
Jules Favre. He was told that
the Assembly had gone to Yer
sailles. Every WE'LL" he said, "let
us go to Versailles" So the en-
tire Embassy left for that city. At
last M. Theirs had been appointed
head IF the Government, and
Chang How would be able to
speak to him. Not at all. They
demanded the ambassadors Gre
dentials for the new Government.
He had none. "In that case it is
impossible to present you. Go to
Peking, get your papers made out
in due form, return and you will
be presented to M. Theirs" So
Chang How took his departure.

FIXTURE.


MONTERREY. VA. January 1.-(spe-
cial THE traditional opinion that winter
never sets in until after a sufficient rain
fall to raise the waters IS again con-
firmed. although, during the first weeks
of December it looked as though there
would be an exception TO the rule at
least in this section Of Virginia.
During the last ten days heavy rams
have fallen throughout this hitherto
drought-stricken region.
In reviewing the events or the past
year perhaps the most notaole one III
Highland is the severe drought OF the late
summer and fall, which occasioncd not
little trouble and anxiety, ana, IN soIne
instances, entailed suffering. Water
sources. that were never known to give
out before. failed utterly, ana water for
domestic purposes had TO be hauled Tor
several miles. Pasture-felds, where MIN
erto the water supply for stock was gene
rally abundant, became dry and dusty,
and the herds had TO be driven TO the
larger river courses 10 Stake their thirst.
1 presume there is not town OF WI
lage in the State that can boast of a
more abundant or healthy water supply
than can Monterey. Not only are we
blest with a half dozen or more strong
flowing springs OF pure, cold water, but
water of the same hcalthiul nature may
be found on almost any location by sink
ing a well Y or l. feet. This secures us
perfect immunity from feVers and other
diseases where the functions are impair
ed by impure water, and as previously
stated in the Dispatch, there has not
been a clearly-dehned case OF typhoid
fever in Monterey for thirty years.
For some reason-perhaps for the sake
of the righteous few of the town-there
