Engle, Marietta, reported that in his section of the county the corn looked ia ia verably; the potato crop would be short; the ground, hitherto iu geed condition for plowing, is new getting tee uaiu , .- will be an average yield of apples and a rather short one of pears. Peaches show well, and the tobacco, especially that which was early planted, is very line: some of the later planted may net make an average crop uuiess iueiu i uw seen ; the young clever is a failure, aud the pasture short. The rainfall for July was a 10-16 inches, for June, 3 5-16. Henry Kurtz, Mount Jey, reported the cernas looking remarkably well at pres ent ; the fodder has been already made, but if we don't seen get rain the cars will net till ; both clever and tnneiuy nave iaui ; some of the tobacco has been badly eaten by grasshoppers, ether fields aie irregular, and still ethers very fine ; some has been already cut off, but it is tee early as yet te estimate what may be the general con dition of the crop as a whole. The ground is dry and tee hard for plowing. Jehnsen Miller, Warwick, said the to bacco in his section looked indifferently some of the fields were very fine and ethers short, en the whole net as goeu as at this time last year ; corn leeks very well and will yield a large crop provided it gets rain ; clever has failed entirely : he sewed one field and it died out;rcsewcd it and it died out again ; he harrowed and rolled the field alter sewing the seed : the potato crop will be short ; apples plenty; pears and peaches net se full, but a geed crop ; pasture is rather short. Wm. II. Brosius, of Drumerc, reported tlm corn nremisiuir : much of the grass sewn in wheat was killed before harvest, that which net killed leeks pictty well ; tobacco leeks well, very nearly up te the highest average, but if the piesent dry weather continues, much of the crop will prove peer.

Night soil. Dr. C. A. Greene read the following paper en night soil as a manure : Gentlemen : At the regular meeting in June last I was requested te write an essay en niffht soil. This compost is the peer est variety of manure: it contains the ammo amme nias and phosphates, but in variable quantities and only sparingly. Yet they should all be saved and utilized.

SEVAN'S FLOUR STREET. di7-lyd Ne. 237 NORTH PRINCE PKY L STBUP LOCHEU'S KIBNOWNED COUGU t..e Bald ether beiiii; nearly lull is as geed iu his neigh borheod as it ever was, but between me Gap and Lancaster he noticed many peer fields, and has heard complaints of some of it being foxy. Considerable grain has been threshed and the yield has been light and the quality rather peer. lhe Fultz variety is the worst and the Clawseu and Mediterranean the best. Clever is very peer and if dry weather continues will be killed, some farmers have rcsewn hnip lipids. II. G. Rush, West Willow, said there was a general complaint of the failure et young clever and grass, while the corn and tobacco leek very wen, out oeui new "- rain ; the corn fodder has been made, but net the ears ; potatoes arc light, probably because they arc net se well attended as they used te lie, before the tobacco crop monenolized se much of the farmer's at tentien. ,. , President Witnicr, Paradise, believed the tobacco crop was better than last year. A part of the crop is already mature and there is enough moisture in the ground te mature a great deal mere of it, even with out rain ; the corn leeks very fine ; two thirds of the ground he sewed in clever is well covered and the young ciever ucimji set than he ever saw it before. Uis grass crop was bery geed, he having cut bevcu wagon leads from five acres ; the corn should have rain te fully develop it ; the potatoes arc of excellent quality though the yield is rather small. Calvin Cooper, Bird-iu-IIand, thought there was no occasion for any one te be uneasy about the growing crops. Last year there was a much greater dreuth than this, and it continued until the 28th of Ti,i,r evrrvtliiiir w.is siiffarinr for rain and thprn nrn fars there would be no corn or tobacco, and yet we had immense crops of both. There was a spontaneous growth after the 2Gth of July, and theie is, there fore, no cause for anxiety new. Transplanting Trees. " What is the best mode of transplant inrrtrAAs? Should thev be watered, and inwhatway?" Calvin Cooper, te whom the question had been referred, answered at considerable length, his main points being that it is a mistake te transplant trees of two large growths ; it is an error te suppose that they will be come large trees in less time than smaller ones; get small healthy trees, have the soil thoroughly pulverized, cut oft the Hrniren rru.ts f the tree te be planted, se as te leave no bruised portions, and make the cuts en the under side of the roots; Hin thn roots into a naste made of clay and water just before planting, spread out the roots horizontally in the hole dug te receive them and cover them with dry or slightly moist and pulverized soil, and then with the feet, press the ground in tightly around the roots ; never plant a tree when the ground is tee wet te plant corn or cab bage ; don't plaut tee deep; if the tree is tall it may be supported ey a skikc " in the ground for that purpose, otherwise tlm wind mav break off the small rootlets. As te watering transplanted trees, he would as a rule says "no," because, even if it were desirable, it is apt te be tee often neglected. Transplanted trees should always be well cut back ; it is a great mis take te allow the branches te remain, in hopes of securing thereby a.larger or mere rapid growth. . Alentr discussion ensued, participated in by Henry Kurtz, Henry 31. Engle, Levi S. Reist, Israel S. Landis, Dr. C. A. Greene, II. G. Resh, Jehnsen 3Iiller and C. L. Hunsecker, most of whom agreed substantially with 3Ir. Cooper, though Dr. Greene argued for a liberal supply of water, which is one of the principal ele- constant replenishment, or tne crops will grew smaller. The careful farmer will save all substances of whatever char acter that while decaying and undergoing decomposition will furnish plant feed te raise wheat, corn, beans and ether crops, such as decaying weeds, saw-dust, old bones, hats, tushes, either coal or weed, old carpets, mats and straw, and place them with his night Feil in a heap, in a clayey, hollow piece of ground, where their virtues may be retained ; uimer a snee. m me place, for if diluted with rain water they will escape into surrounding places. All farmers should make a box of plank and place it under their privies, en rollers, and occasionally threw en te the night soil some muck or mellow earth, and when the box is full roll it out and convey the con tents into your compost heap, te be mixed with ether manures. In this way you will never have any unpleasant smell. The mivv should ha hifh eneush te allow of this box being removed easily and readily from the rear portion of the building. There should be three common wooden rellcis about five inches in diameter and as long as the box. Iusect Pests. Dr. Greene also read the following paper en iusect pests and the means of extermi nating thein. There are few subjects which have mere widely received the attention of farmers than injects destructive te vegetation. And the majority of farmers in this coun try have come te the conclusion that they cannot successfully cope with them. 1 ins is an uufortunate fact, for millions of dol lars worth of fruit, graiu and vegetables are yearly destroyed. Ne systematic attempt will new be made te exterminate or decidedly lessen the in numerable throng until Congress takes held of the subject with ungleved hands. There is no doubt that the combined in telligence of man is superior te that of the curculie,army worm, grasshopper, or borer. But where the enemy are in such im mense quantities and varieties, and extend nvpr se v:ist of territerv. thev cannot be annihilated only by combined systematic concerted action. Fer a subject of such vast importance, men of decided talent should be breunht together in sufficient numbers te de justice te the subject. Pal try appropriations et 9io,ew te air. juuu.v and his few assistants, is like two seamen undertaking te care for a full-rigged ship iu a gale. Congressmen should at once agitate the matter, and should make appropriations large enough te employ all the talent ne cessary te bring about favorable results. Fiera my knowledge ei destructive insects and from the few hundred experiments I linve made in the last forty years, I am fully convinced that no insect ever lived that cannot be readily decimated by prop er application of destructives. There are scores of eminent entomologists in this country, whose services should be retained under the commission already appointed by the government, and the results of their cembiued experiments could be published in book form by the government, aud the information would be gladly ac cepted bv the people, and insects could be rreatlv deDenutated in the same persistent manner that bears, wolves and foxes have been decimated. But the government must act magnanimously en a large scale. All such esteemed and educated entomelo gists like our distinguished townsmen, ur. S. S. Rathven, Herman Stecher, esq., of Reading, and ethers of the same class et experts, should be attached te the com mission of Prof. Riley. A long debate followed en the propriety, or impropriety of congressional appropria tions in aid of the war against insects. It was participated in by Jehnsen 3Iiller, II. 31. Engle, W. II. Brosius, Dr. Greene, C. L. Hunsecker, Jehn C. Linville, Henry Kurtz and ethers. Durinsr the debate Dr. r,nnni naid a iIewinsr tribute te the un selfish and thus far unrewarded labors of Dr. S. S. Rathven in this field of science. He regarded Dr. Rathven as second te uene of the great entomologists of the country, and declared it te be a sii:min that he is permitted tr niml !ileiir as a tradesman instead of being placed in a position where he could devote his entire time and talent te the furtherance of a science of the utmost im portance and te which lie has devoted the best portion of his life. Dr. Greene a'se paid a tribute te the labors of Professer Strecker, of Reading, another eminent entomologist, who is deserving of recogni tion and reward for his valuable services in this science. (Tnrv M. Ensrle and Calvin Cooper en- '""-J r derscd all Dr. Greene had said in praise et Dr. Rathven, and 3Ir. Cooper offered the following resolution, which was adopted : Reselced, That we have learned with pleasure that Congress has at last taken some measures for the destruction of ir sect pests, and that we urge the necessity of such appropriations as will employ the best talent the country can produce. Wm. H. Brosius, Jehnsen 3Iiller and Eph. Hoever were appointed a committee te test and report en fruits offered for ex hibition. Thev renerted as fellows : Your committee appointed te test the fruit en exhibition de respectfully report : Six varieties of pears from Henry 31. Engle, namely : Restezier, very fine and sweet ; Osband's Summer, splendid in ap pearance and quality ; Duchess de Buerre, very geed and tartish ; KirtUnd, juicy and of excellent flavor; Ott, of geed quality ; Annes de Eta, fair. Twe varieties of apples by D. 31. Mayer, the strawberry apple being very excellent. Apple for a name, small size and fair quality. Calvin Cooper called special attention te the excellence of the strawberry apple, than which there is none better for dessert while its beautiful appearance and line flavor will make it marketable at all times and places. Galusha at the County Fair. Jehn H. Landis offered a resolution' inviting Hen. Galnsha A. Grew te deliver an address at the coming county fair. The rnsnlntinn was adeDted. 3Ir. Engle presented copies of the eighth quarterly report et tue ueara ei agricul ture ; copies of LeDuc's report te the sub committee en agriculture, of the Heuse of Representatives, were also distributed among members. James Weed, of Little Britain, was elected a member of the society. Topics for Next Meeting. The Right Side or the Case. Philadelphia Evening News. The argument of Colonel 3IcClurc is comprehensive and able in matter, out free and easy, if net rather familiar, in manner. It lacks in dignity, but is, never theless, a clear presentation of the facts and law in the case named. Colonel 31c Clure took a very special interest in the case, involving, as it did, one phase of the liberty of the press ; but, mere than that, the liability of lawyers for criticisms of judges, spoken or printed out of court. He undoubtedly represented the right side of the case. Cel. McClure'a Masterly Argument. Philadelphia Press. The argument of Cel. Alexander K. 3IcClure before the supreme court in the matter of the rules disbarring 3Iessrs. Steinman and Hensel of the Lancaster Tx-TET.T.tnKxrER baa been published in a neat pamphlet from the tasteful printing house of McLaughliu Bres. The address is eminently worthy of being preserved in this convenient and permanent form. It is allucid and cogent discussion of the principles involved in the case, and a mas terly vindication of the just liberty of the press, without shielding its unrestricted license. As a clear and forcible exposition of the relations of the bench.bar and press, it takes high rank among the monu ments of forensic eloquence. Perspicuous and Logical. Menamin's Printer Circular. The case of A. J. Steinman and W. U. Hensel, of the Lancaster Intelligencer, disbarred by Judge Patterson for censur ing a case iathe court ei wnicn tney were officers, has attracted a profound interest among journalists and members of the leal profession. Cel. A. K. 3IcClure,editer of the Times, of this city, recently deliver ed an exhaustive argument en the case be fore the state supreme court at Harns burg. All the precedents having any bear in" en the cause had been carefully collec ted by Cel. 3IcClure and presented in a perspicuous and logical manner. He main tained that attorneys had as much right te write critically, in, the newspapers, en cases in which they were net professionally engaged, as journalists having ue connec tion with the law. 1Tb nhiiwed hew some et tue ineatcst iudecs that ever graced the bench of Penn- sylvama liaa, wnen canuiuutes iur hj-cicv-tien, been mere fiercely assailed by law yers practising before them than was Judge Patterson in the columns of the Tjincnster INTELLIGENCE!. Cel. 3IcClure cited a number of instances some of them of recent occurrence, where judges resigned from the bench in compli ance with the determined demands of the bar, every member of which they could have debarred, after the method of Judge Patterson. He asked the courts te protect themselves, but also te guard the vital in terests of the two great piofessiens the bar and the press, law and journalism. Unpleasant in some respects as this case is, it is still pleasing te record that it has been submitted te the consideration of the highest tribunal of the commonwealth in a masterly manner by a gentleman who is at once an acknowledged leader in journalism and a learned and successful lawyer.
