THE CROPS.—As confirming our previously t expressed, and to a considerable extent pres ent opinion in the matter, wo copy the ap pended remarks of the Cincinnati Price Cur rent: The advices regarding the growing wheat crop we have had since our last leave no doubt that the prospects for a most abundant crop, should the remainder of the season prove favorable, were never more flattering. In [ most cases, where the winter wheat was sup posed to have been killed by the frosts of March and April, it is now growing up from the roots, showing that though the blades perished the roots were safe. The wheat crop in Kentucky is reported, since the weather became warmer, exceeding ly promising; and fields previously regarded hopeless now promise an abundant yield. From the South the news i? also more fa vorable : On both shores of the Potomac, near its mouth, the grain crops are locking well, al though backward for the season. T ho plant ers of St. Mary's and Charles counties, Mary land, anticipate nearly an average crop. On the Virginia shore the wheat looks quite healthy, although not generally in as forward a suite as upon the Maryland side. In thi region, a number of fields look bad at pre-ent, while others present a green and healthy appearance. KVII. TIMES. 1 he high prices of the necessaries of lifi-, such as we are now experiencing, which fall with peculiar hardship upon the poor and middle cla-ses, is a subject that must ulti mately engage public attention, for it is al j ready making deep inroads into the p>urse of i many a one who had laid by a small sum from his hard earnings, perhaps with the hope of some day investing it in a little property he might call his own. Flour is selling at $4 2o per hundred, meat at -al2# cts. per ! pound, molasses at 2ua27 per quart, sugar at ldalii per pound, an 1 many other articles at nue time luxuries, but now necessaries, in proportion, so that the question may well be • asked whether we have not fallen up on evil times? Were there any substantia! reasons for this state of things, it could be borne without a murmur, but there are none. There is no famine, creating a demand for bread fclufla; save in Louisiana, there has been no failure of sugar crops; both beef and pork are plenty, yet there is an upward tendency of almost everything except labor. Now why is this so? In our opinion it betrays an unheal thy state of society which must some day bring about a fearful revulsion. Speculators iu fact rule everything by a species of gam bling worse than all the card playing ever practiced, for by forming extensive combina tions, they rai:-e or lower the priceg of almost everything at pleasure—one day thereby in juring the producer, and the next the consu mer. in addition, this speculating fever i.s extending to individuals, many of whom, in stead of paying their just debts, make in vest ments abroad by using the very moDey that ought to be retained and paid out at home. These things Lode no good, and we fear before three more years elapse, many who have aided in producing them will exclaim that we have fallen upon evil times. %_A friend of Rev. John A. Collins de sires us to say that we did him injustice in calling him the advocate of slavery, and states that at the last conference he said, "Mr. Pres ident, I have always hated slavery and on "all occasions raised my voice against it. J "go for the discipline of my church, which "opposes pro-slaveryism on one hand, and "ultra-abolitionism on the other." We knew i h '-hing of Mr. C'a. private sentiments, hut f jrmr'l our f pinion of his position on the strength beans and Americans, Eocofoceism ha= again triumphed. How our Republican friends can expect to elect David Wilmot with thee fig ures staring them in the face we are unable to tell. Is it supposed by any sane mind, that after this manifestation of feeling on the part of the Republicans of Philadelphia, that a union of the two parties can be effected up on David Wilmot, in that city t Politicians, as a general thing, do not carry out the scrip tural injunction, "do well to those who de spiteful'y use you," but are apt to retaliate upon those that " evil treat them." The above is copied from the Aurora to show the feelings kept alive by the Straight Americans, notwithstanding the fact that the Union ticket has upon it two. if not three, as good "Americans" as are in the State. What their object is in opposing this ticket, fairly nominated, remains to Le seen—for while no one will pretend to say that Mr. Wilmot can be elected with a third candidate in the field, we suppose none but a thrice-bailed fool would for a moment entertain the idea that an ex clusive American ticket could be elected with out the aid of the Republicans. To show hew unreasonable and selfish the straightout Americans are in the position they occupy, let us look at a few figures as developed at the election last fall. The Fremont vote was 147,000 Fillmore Fusion 56,000 " straightout 26,000 Republican majority, 65,000 From this it appears that although the Re publicans outnumber the Americans nearly two to one, the latter—or pernaps mora prop erly a portion of the latter, just sufficient in number to decide an election—are not willing to yield to a union movement unless the 147,- 000 Republicans and nine-tenths of the 56,000 Fillmore fusionUts consent to suffer the 20,000 straightouts to dictate who shall be the nom inees and the principles they boil. This is the true position of the political field, and is another illustration of that "dog in the man ger" policy which elected Polk over Clav, Pierce over Scott, and will elect Packer Gov ernor unless wiser counsels prevail. The election spoken of above was no tet at all of strength, except with those who were bound to vote, and that the Republicans did not unite with the straightout> there, can bo a matter of no surprise to those familiar with the men nominated for the petty offices at stake. From the nomination of Mr. Wilmot to the present day, the organ of the straight out leaders (the Daily News,) has been fur nishing articles against Mr. Wilmot, adapted | for republication in the lucofoco papers, in which Mr. \\ ilmot and the Republicans were I denounced in the choicest teims, just as the fusion last fall, although it required no sacri • fice of principle whatever on the part of Americans, was then denounced. Had the ; ceufee of these self-constituted leaders been different, there would probably have been a different result in the election. For our part we shall await further devel opments, and if the political horizon will show two opposition candidates in the field, we shall have no hesitation in withdrawing from such a contest—having no desire to make a fool of ourself or our readers.

Lake Superior Weather. —At Portage Lake, as late as the 10th ult., the thermometer went down to minus 10°. On the 13th, the snow at Point Kowonaw was four and a half feet deep , and had begun to thaw. The ice on the 7th of April was 26 inches thick ! This news may explain where our cold winds come Irom, and the cause of the backwardness of the season. lirutnl Outrage. —On Monday last, some white moil plied an inoffensive negro, named J liij 1 hompson, with liquor, at a tavern near ersey ( >ty, on the plank road to Newark, N.

Sterett, Esq., wh was in the city at the time, confirmed the news in its worst form Mr. Webb was an apprentice in the Democrat office some years ago,, subsequently w ,rkc-d in Lewisburg, Union county, and when con signed to an early grave by a band of lawless ruffians, was on his way to the far west to establish a newspaper. Young Webb was about 22 years of age, and during the past few years had given promise of becoming an industrious and useful citizen. (From the St. Louis Republican, of >la> 15:b.) List night, (Wednesday, 13th,) two men, frightfully bruised, were brought into the po lice office, about two o'clock, hating been found lying in a stone quarry, near Belcher's Sugar Refinery, by a person, who, hearing cries of distress, went into the quarry and found the men. When brought to the office, one of the men was insensible, ljis head was severely cut behind the ear, his skull fractured, and his nose broken. The otiicr was externally, very much bruis ed—his eye swollen and lacerated, one of his arms broken, and one of his knees deeply . jut. The latter, although to all appearance more seriously hurt than bis companion, was perfectly sensible, arid able to give the partic ulars of the occurrence which preceded their falling into the quarry. 11c stated that fai name was 11. K. Eaton, and the name of his com pan i n Robert Webb : that lie 13 from Iloliidavsbnrg, Pennsylvania, and Webb from L wistown, in the same State; that they were on their way to Kuri.-as. and that Webb had on board the steamer Rocket, on which they ] expected t > leave for their piac : of destination, materials for a printing office, which he in tended to commence in Kansas. Being out late last night, for the purpose of having a complimentary card inserted in the Republi can, and not being familiar with the city, thev lost their way while proceeding to the boat", 1 and wandered some di-tancc up Main stree'. During their absence from the boat she had ieft the landing where she first arrived, and had dropped down to another position. B ir.g at a loss in what direction they should proceed, tiiey concluded to make en quiry, and observing 3 light in a drinking bouse, they entered and endeavorc-d to obtain the information they desired. Upon this two men stepped up and offered to show them the ! boat; but just as they were all abont to depart one of the men who had made the offer, sug gested that Mr. Webb sh.uld treat before they started. Mr. Webb complied and the party left. Mr. Eaton was unable to state positively j whether they ail went up or down street, but thinks it was up. When they had gone sev eral squares, they were met by another man, ! who, addressing Webb, demanded his money. Webb immediately placed himself in an atti- j tude of defence, but was suddenly struck by the new comer with some heavy substance, and knocked over into what proved a stone quarry, near Belcher's Sugar Refinery. Eaton was then either struek or pushed over after his companion; but was unable, from tho confusion that prevailed at the time, to state positively which. Before reaching the bottom he lost his consciousness, which he regained some time after Ms fall, and on giving the alarm was discovered by the watch man of the steamer Allegheny, who removed them from the quarry to the police office. He says that during the scuffle he heard one of the men address the other as George, and thinks he heard the name of Evans ap plied to one of them. He is disposed to be lieve that persons were approaching at the time of the occurrence, which may account for their assailants failing to take the money and watches that were still on their persons when they were brought to the police office. Dr. Shore, who happened to be in the neighborhood of the police office when the wounded men arrived there, promptly render ed them every service that his skill could sug gest; arid after dressing the wounds of Eaten, and finding it impossible to do anything for Webb, ho had them both removed "to the Sis ters' Hospital, where Webb died yesterday morning. Eaton, at the last accounts, was in a very critical condition, with some mental confu sion and much pain. His brother is a com positor in this office. I he Coroner commenced an inquest on the body of Mr. 1\ ebb yesterday morning, and received the testimony of Mr. Eaton; but the latter suffering considerably from his wounds, the investigation was deferred till Eaton shall bo in a condition to undergo further exami nation. We have not heard whether any clue has been obtained for tho discovery of the villains who perpetrated the murder, but hopo our police will be able to ferret them out, and bring them to justice. asr We are indebted to our old friend Samuel Hopper, Esq., for a file of California papers. LiQroß SELLING. —The number of drunken men reeling about the streets on Saturday laet, and the rowdyism exhibited by a few blackguards at the circus in the evening, show that there is a lamentable disregard of law by some authorized to sell liquors in this place—a disregard that ought to call forth a determined effort on the part of well-disposed citizens to ferret them out, and if possible bring them to punishment. The evil is un doubtedly growing, and if tolerated much longer will result in a worse state of affairs than has yet existed. llocs AT LARGE.—Arrangements have bean male bv the Town Council, by which the or dinances relative to swine will be enforced hereafter—a fact which those who are suffer ing these animals to run at large annoying their neighbors and others, will do well to take notice. jajfA scaffold gave way at the new jail on Monday morning, precipitating James A.
