THE RED WEEVIL.—The wheat and oats crops in this county are looking very finely, although we regret to learn that the red weevil is found in the wheat and is giving our farmers some anxiety., Some fields are very seriously injured by the ravages of this pest, while others are but slightly if at all, affected. The grain of the wheat is now, however, hardening rapidly, so that very little further damage can be inflicted upon it by the weevil, which, as our readers .doubtless know, is a small red worm about a tenth of an inch in length, which gets into the soft wheat grain and sucks out its sub stance.

MAGNOLIA WATEIL—A delightful toilet ant cle—superiur to Cologne and at half the price 171 2wdeocht2tw Polities in Tennessee NASHVILLE, July I.—Judge Grant, chair man of the Conservative Central Commit tee, recently addressed a circular to the County Courts, requesting them to appoint officers to hold the State elections, assuming that the law giving them the power had not been repealed. Gov. Brownlow issues a proclamation this A. M., that the County Courts have no authority to act as requested; that the power to appoint officers to hold elections has been taken from them and conferred on the Commissioners of Regis tration. He denounces the circular as seditious, wicked and revolutionary, and warns the County Courts against acting on its advice, as they will lay themselves liable to punishment. He concludes by ordering Gen. Cooper to dispose of the militia under his command so as to enforce the franchise law in ,its letter and spirit. ' The political canvass in Tennessee is beceming animated and exciting. Sketch of Naxlmittan Ferdinand Maximilian Joseph, Archduke of Austria, and brother of the reggning Em peror Francis Joseph, was born. July •13„ 1832, and consequently was nearly thhty-. five years of age at the time of his tragic death. Little known even outside of Eu ropean aristocratic circles, the people of this Continent would have taken but slight interest in the career of this Austrian Prince, but for the exciting events which, during the last four years, brought Maxi milian so prominently before the American public as Emperor of Mexico. The trou bles of that country are of too recent date, and are even continuing at this writing, that their successive recital in this in stance would be entirely superfluous.— As a matter of record, however, it should be stated here that it was under the imme diate direction of the French Commander, acting under especial orders of Napoleon, that the Assembly of Mexican notables sent, in 1863, a deputation of their number to offer the Mexican crown to the Archduke Maximilian, then chief in command of the Austrian navy. Their address was pre sented to him on the 8d of September, 1863, to which he replied on the 3d of thesucceed lug month, accepting the crown upon con dition that the people of Mexico should express their willingness to acknowledge him as their Emperor by giving him a majority of their votes, which should be cast for that purpose. n the 10th:of April, 1865, Prince Maximilian again received the Mexican deputation at Miramar, and for• many accepted the crown of Mexico. Full of hope, and determined to raise the fallen fortunes of that unhappy country, Maximilian, and his wife Carlotta, daughter of Leopold 11., King of Belgium, soon set sail for their new empire, and after a brief interval the little fleet reached Vera Cruz towards the end of May. It was, how ever, not before the .2d of Juno that the Emperor formally made his entry into the capital of Mexico. The successes and reverses of the French army, while bat tling with the numerous bands of dis sidents, who never ceased to oppose the new empire, are now matters or history, and would, no doubt, have culminated I in their entire overthrow, but for the withdrawal of those French troops,.) int at a time when iMaximillun . , though with a do• pletod treasury, was doing his utmost to revive trade and commerce, and was ap plying all his energies to develops various resources which could not have failed in course of time to increase the material welfare of the Mexican people. Abandoned by Franco—or rather by Napoleon—Maxi 'Milan bravely, but recklessly, endeavored with his small band of warriors to oppose the constantly increasing Liberal army, until finally, through the treachery of a man named Lopez, whom he had laden with honors, the City of Queretaro, which he was valiantly defending, fell into the hands of Escobedo, and he himself was made a prisoner of war, subsequently "tried" by court-martial, and, us the tele graph announces, found guilty, and execu ted on the lUth of June. His widow, Carlotta, now in Europe at latest dates, had been informed of the critical situation in which Maximilian found himself; and there can bo but little doubt the sick and at times deranged ex-Emprces, when made aware of the fate which has befallen her unfortunate husband, will be unable to withstand the shock to her nervous system, and perhaps succumb, oven before the body of the exe cuted Emperor reaches the shores of his native land. 8 4 .00 . 8.00 . 0.0 . 1.71 3.50 . ISO I.lb The Trial of John H. Nurratt, for the Murder of Abraham Lincoln. WASH INCITON, Juno 28, In the Surratt trial, to-day the examina tion of Lewis J. Weichman was continued. Weichman testified that on the day of the assassination Mrs. Surratt prophesied that the popular rejoicing " would he turned to mourning;" and that In the evening she appeared nervous, and complained ul' not feeling well. Ho also testified In regard to the Government officer coming to Mrs. Surratt's house in pursditofJobn Harrison Starrett and John Wilkes Booth. Witness also said that Mrs. Surratt liked Booth and culled hint "her pet." He identified some telegrams of Booth's, and also iden tified Booth's diary as being in the hand writing of J. Wilkes Booth. On cross-ex amination he testified to the time when he made the acquaintance of the conspirators. In some points on this matter, Welcbmun's testimony differs from that given by him in the assassination trial. WASHINGTON, Juno 29. In the Surratt trial, to-day, the cross examination of Lewis J. Welchman was continued, but nothing new was elicited, the witness simply confirming or correcting his previous testimony. On account of Judge Fisher's illness, the court adjourned early in the day. WASUINOTON July Ist. In the Surratt trial, to-day, the cross examination of Weichrnan was continued, witness correcting certain statements made at the assassination trial. Charles C. Dunn, an employe at Adams Express Office, testi fied to Sumac having been employed at the office, and having asked for leave of absence soon after being employed there. Dr. McMillan testified that two years ago he was surgeon In the service of the Montreal Ocean Steamship Company ; lie met the prisoner on the steamship Mon treal, Surratt being under the assumed name of McCarty; the prisoner went on board belbro the starting of the steamer, and occupied the Doctor's room until the steamer sailed ; a priest named La Pierre introduced Surratt ; Surratt said to the witness that if he (the witness) "knew all he had done, It would make his eyes stare ;" saw General Ripley, of South Carolina, talk to Surratt on the boat; Surratt's hair and moustache were dyed, and he wore spectacles, and acknow ledged that this was done to disguise him self; had conversations with Surratt during the voyage, in which Surratt said that he had received large sums of money from the Rebel Secretary of State ; Surratt also told witness that " he hoped to live to see the day when he could return and serve An drew Johnson as Abraham Lincoln had been served ;" and that, " if he went to the United States again he would swing."— There was quite a lively passage between this witness and the counsel for the defence during the examination. Parties In the July Semitone of Congress A Washington letter to the Cincinnati Commercial says : It has been given out from this city that a two thirds majority will be impossible in the Senate, because eight republican Sena tors have gone abroad, or to the Pacific coast. Let us see. The whole number of Senators, including those from the new State of Nebraska, is fifty-four. Out of these are just twelve democrats, one of whom —Doolittle—is in Europe, and likely to remain there a months or more. Pour Senators—Messrs. Cole, Conness, Stewart and Corbett—are understood to be absent on the Pacific coast, and will hardly be at Washington before autumn. Senators Sherman, Sprague, and both the Morrills are said to have gone to Europe. Suppose there comes speedy action by the Senate previous to their return, the party strength will stand thus: Whole number of Senators 54 Deduct absentees-8 republicans and 1 dem... 9 Leaving thelSenate Two-thirds of forty-five requires thirty votes, and, as the whole democratic strength, including Doolittle, is but twelve. it is easy to see that the republicans will have three or four to spare. This estimate also leaves out of view the contingency that Senator Guthrie, of Kentucky, who was not present at all at the last session, may continue indisposed, and the further contingency that Reverdy Johnson, who voted for the reconstructton bill over the President's objections, may continue of the same mind to the end. Damage to the Crope in the Smith by the Recent Rains Information received from Richmond states that the recent tremendous rains in North Carolina have produced an unprece dented amout of damage in the agricultural districts. Hyde county is said to be, as it were, one broad field of water, and some of the finest plantations in Edgecombe are rdported to be from one to two feet under water. In Brunswick the damage is fearful. The rice plantations have suffered seriously, part of the crop having been washed entirely away. Several large rice fields near Wil mington are several feet deep in water. The latest accounts state that the damage done to the planting interest throughout the State is fearful to contemplate. The cotton crop is almost entirely annihilated, fertilizers and manures having been .completely washed out, while the corn crop has sustained very serious injury. The consequences of this fearful disaster to the agricultural interest will be most terrible, the energy of the farmers having been directed to bring about an abundant yield this year. The only course left to pursue is to push ahead and plough up the remnants of the damaged crops, and endeavor to replant as far as possible with corn. At best it is a very great risk, and the yield will depend entirely on the seasons. Maximilian Shot. WARRINGTON, June 30. Information was received here yesterday from what is regarded as a reliable source, to the eect that by the decree of the Juarez government Maximilian was shot on the r9th inst., at 7 o'clock A. M., and that the friends of Maximilian asked the privilege of removing his body for the purposes of sending it to Europe, but the request was refused. General Grant also re ceived a private telegram from Gen eral Sheridan last night containing substantially the same statement. It is believed that Juarez reluctantly consented to the execution of Maximillian. When the messenger bearing despatches from our Government relative to sparing the life of Maximilian delivered his packages to Juarez, the latter enjoined him that he (Juarez) was disposed to spare the life of Maximilian, but the pressure from the Mexican leaders and people for his execu tion was so great that it would be almost impossible to resist it. HOD. L. D. Campbell, late Minister to Mexico, arrived here last night. The steamer W. F. Curtis was burned at Marietta, Ohio, yesterday. No lives were lost, The Convocation In Rome. • By Special Telegram to the N. Y. Herald. ROME, June 27, 1887. His Holiness Pope Pius the Ninth held a public .Consistory this day . , Tlinzsday, at which there were over four hundr,-d Catho lic bishops, coming from every part of the world. The Pope delivered an allocution to the assembled prelates, in the course of which he praised their great zeal in coming to Rome fro & such distances and thus evin cing their attachment and devotional obe dience to the Holy See. He said that the example shown to the world by the union of the Church at large in its celebration of the eighteenth centenary anniversary of St. Peter tt martyrdom, would show fortn to the enemies of the chair of Peter the immense Power which the Church wields on earth. His Holiness confirmed the Papal con demnation of the errors of the act of October 29, 1865. He also expressed his desire to convoke at an early day a gen eral council of the Bishops, with a view to deliberate on the hest means of repair ing the evils which oppress the Church just now. The Holy Father closed the allocution by imparting the Pontifical benediction to the bishops. ROME, June 28—Evening. There are a great many more arrivals of Catholic ;prelates and clergymen and laymen, who come to take part in and witness the ceremonies of Saturday and Sunday next, and the canonization rites which are to follow. At this moment there are four hundred and fifty archbishops and bishops, with about thirty thousand clergymen and members of the different religious orders in the Eternal City. From the United States of America are noticed the Archbishops Spalding, of Balti more; Kenrick, of St. Louis; Odin, of New Orleans ; Purcell, of Cincinnati, and Bishop Wood, of Philadelphia, with twenty•two bishops from other American dioceses in British territory and the Union, When the Pope received the American prelates and clergy at audience they pre sented him with two hundred thousand dollars in gold coin, They alsoresented a model of the Ameri• can yacht Henrietta in silver, the yacht being laden below with gold pieces to the amount of Ilfty thousand dollars, contribu ted by the people of the archlepincopal pro• vince of Cincinnati. The presentation of the model of the yacht was made to his Holiness by the Right Rev, James F. Wood, I), D., Bishop of Phila delphia. The Pope, who was in excellent humor, lifting the exquisite model of the yacht Henrietta from the case, said with a graci ous smile, " Non e unvapore."' "It is not a steamer!" or, us the words have been more freely translated by some persons here, "it is not all vapor or steam" from America, alluding to the golden cargo on board. Turning to the clergy, his holiness said that ho had only4ileasant words to say to the Americans present and absent. He complimented thorn on their progress, religious and civil, in the most cheerful manner,and spoke in the very highest terms of General Hulus King, Minister of the United States in Home, and of his father, Professor King, who now lies at the point of death. 'rho Moat Revorend Archbishops Spald ing and Purcell, of Baltimore and Cin cinnati, have been named on the committoe charged to prepare a reply on behalf of the Catholic world to the Pope's allocution, This council will probably meet In November, Archbishop Purcell, of Cincinnati, will have assigned to him a post of honor on the right hand of tho Pope at the grand St. Peter's ceremony on Saturday. Every attention, in fact, Is being shown to the Americans, bishops and others. Tito Groat Pori,.

The Committee of the New York Consti tutional Convention to whom was referred the question of suffrage, have made majo rity and minority reports—the former by Mr. Greeley. They are at variance on many points of the suffrage question. The ma jority proposes to confine suffrage to males without distinction of color. It proposes the following qualifications: 1. Adult ra tional manhood. 2. Citizenship of the Uni ted States of not less than thirty days' standing. 3. Residence in the State for the year preceding. 4. Residence in the elec tion district for the last thirty days. 5. Freedom from crime. 8. Exemption from dependence through pauperism or guar dianship. The following is what it says on female suffrage: Your committee does not recommend an extension of the elective franchise to wo men. However defensible in theory, we are satisfied that public sentiment does not demand, and would not sustain, an innova tion so revolutionary and sweeping—so openly at war with a distribution of duties and functions between the sexes, as vener able and pervading as government itself, and involving transformation so radical in social and domestic life. Mr. Opdike has introduced as an inde pendent proposition, that the future quali fication of impartial suffrage shall be abili ty to read and write—the only basis at all consistent with the stability and enduring character of our Government. The whole subject will come up for discussion in the Convention at an early day. The main points of the majority report will be adopt ed.—Pittsburg Commercia/. We have another batch of rumors about Mr. Stanton. Some say that he will resign, others that he will be removed. We discredit them. Mr. Stanton belongs to the class that rarely die, and never resign. As to his political sympathies, they may be expressed by saying that there are three parties in the country now—the Democrats, the Republicans, and Mr. Stanton.—N. Tribune. A. Woman Sentenced to Death Lena Miller, lately convicted of poison ing her husband in Clearfield county, was sentenced to death on last Saturday. The Republican says she showed no emotion under the circumstances. Radical Portraiture. The Washington correspondent of ,the St. Louis Times favors the read ers of that paper with the following sketches of the great Impeacher Ashley, and the Old Confiscator Stevens: Several Radical Congressmen are al ready here preparing work for the session of Congress, which it is now I hought certain will convene on the 3d proximo. Asnley, the pompous, can be seen daily on the avenue, his ample stomach projecting for ward, airing himself for the benefit and admiration of numerous Yankee school marms and other female Radicals, who have come hither with a prospect of teach ing the young nigger "idea how to shook" Ashley is becoming a bright and shin• ing light in the Radical firmament. Amongst the female Radicals "the great impeacher" is facile princeps. His Hyperian locks, smooth fat face, square builtehoulders, and the killing manner in which he runs his plump fingers through his ample and glossy curls, are sufficient of themselves to carry captive the heart of the most vener able virgin in Yankee-land. With the sterner and less susceptible sex, the " Lucifer of Lancaster" is the great Mogul. He is the very impersonification of bate and deformity. Could mankind be at present assembled in some convenient Jehosaphat, I doubt if a homelier sinner than Thad. Stevens could be found amongst them, or one in whose countenance and figure God has so plainly stamped monster. From the top of his ugly, tawd ry wig to the soles of his misshapen and horrid feet there Is not a human spot in him. He looks the very incarnation of malice—a male harpie, whose words are scorpions, and whose breath is poison. Those acquainted with the physiognomy and history of Mr. Thaddeus Stevens will rec ognize this as a highly colored, but not overdrawn, portrait of the man who, more than any other, is dragging the United States to perdition. His theories of confis cation and division of the southern farms and plantations amongst the negroes lately made free could only emanate from a brain brimful of t hate and malice. Nothing good can come from measures proposed and fathered by this bad old man, whose near approach to the:grave seems only to have I added to the accumulated vindictiveness which he has ever fostered toward the people of the South. Is it wrong to pray a merciful Providence to remove peacefully and with out pain from our midst the Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, and transfer him to a happier and more blessed country whose citizens may not be cursed with his legislation, nor in sulted by his sneers ? Statistics of the Wheat Crop Complete returns for the month of June to the Statistical Division of the Agricul tural Department corroborate and fortify the statements relative to wheat prospects, which we have heretofore given. A careful analysis of information from all the States show that the total acreage in wheat is 10 to 15 per cent, greater than last year. In a majority of the States the breadth of winter wheat is quite as wide as usual, and that of spring wheat much greater. In the Ohio Valley the acreage of winter wheat Is less by 12 or 15 per cent., with a very heavy in crease of spring sowing. The States show ing any material decrease of acreage of winter wheat are Ohio, Indiana, Kansas, and Texas. A largo increase is indicated in Virginia, Georgia, Arkansas and 'Ten nessee, and In the South generally, and a slight advance is shown in the New Eng. and Middle States, The increase in breadth of spring wheat In certain States is as follows: Ohio 97 per cout.l Indians 18 do j 111111018 26 do Minuenota..3s do Wisoonedo..ls do M1chigan......113 per cent Missouri 81 do lowa 28 do Kansas SO do Nebraska....oo do The facts indicating the condition of the crop are still more encouraging. The fol lowing table shows the average Improve• ment upon last year Ohio MO per cent judlatia 73 do 'Michigan.. 80 do Wiscomdza Mlonemota 7 do 18 do Miesourt.... 3U per cent Kentucky. 63 do Virginia-100 do N Carolina 40 do Tenneenee 63 do The other States, excepti❑g Texas, make a favorable comparison with last year. It is too early to estimate the final result of the harvest; but with average success in ripening, the crop ought not to be less than 200,000,000 bushels. An average acreage of Winter barley has been sown in a majority of the States. A decrease of five per cent is estimated for New York, Ohio, eight per cent ; Indiana, three per cent: an increase in Tennessee of 10 per cent, and in Arkansas of 25 per cent. On the whole,there is a very slightly diminished breadth of Winter bur ley, but the increase ofthe spring sowing will compensate for the deficiency. The condi• tion of clover is good throughout the country—unusually fine in Ohio and the Middle and New England States. In Pennsylvania it is somewhat better than in New York, and in Maine and Massachusetts more, comparatively, flourishing as com pared with last year, than in the remainder of New England. The acreage of outs is larger than usual ; in the West, Oirto is the only State which cannot show an increase The crop is somewhat variable in condition; in the South far above an average; in New York, 10 per cent below; in Pennsylvania, 6 par cent; in Kentucky, 14 per cent. In the West, generally, the prospect is better than last year. Views of a Well-Known Confederate Raphael Sernines,ax-Confederate admiral presented a set of Union colors to the steamer Commercial, at Memphis, last week, and made a speech, winding up as follows; " Wo were beaten in the war, and the flag of the conqueror became our flag. Take, then, these colors, captain ; they are the colors of our common country, whatovor may be their present signification. We can all feel an honest pride in their more ancient history, as I trust we shall be enabled to do In their future history. With regard to what I may cull their especial history—that is, the history which covers the four years of our internecine war—lc is our duty, both as Christians and brethren, to iorget That war has left many and ghastly wounds. Let us, of the South, do our part by closing them with a tender and gentle hand, so that no scars may remain to remind us of the conflict. And let us endeavor also to con vert this now flag into the old flag again, that we may love it as of yore," A SOUTItEIIN poet has been recently paying his respects to Underwood, as fol lows "They tell us that Justice is blind And thus we may safely determine How Underwood e'er was assigned To wear his immaculate ermine; His peer you'll not find in your track Though you travel from Maine to Misourl, Whose villainous heart is as black As the faces of tive of Lila jury to Secretary Stanton, The rumor that this gentleman is about to resign his post is thought in official cir cles to be altogether unfounded. It would seem clear that if the recent decision of the Cabinetadverse to his views had been con sidered by him as condemnatory and afford ing ground for resignation, he would not have communicated the consequent orders to the Southern commanders, but would have resigned at once.—Nat. Intelligencer. June 24. Latest by Telegraph ! From New Orleans NEW ORLEANS, July 1-12 o'clock mid night.—Both the consulates of Austria and France are in receipt of some official infor mation that Maximilian was shot on the morning of June 19th, and that Diaz occu pied the City of Mexico on June 20th.

The remedy is simply to supply the blood with the necessary quantity of Iron. This can be done by using the PERUVIAN SYRUP, a protected solution of the protoxide of Iron which is so prepared that It assimilates at once with the blood, giving strength, vigor and new life to the whole system. To take med , clue Lo cure diseases occasioned by a deficiency of IRON IN THE BLOOD, without restoring it to the system, is like try ing to repair a building when the foundation is gone. An eminent divine says: " I have been using the PERUVIAN SYRUP for some time pest; It gives me new vigor, buoyancy of spirits, elasticity of muscle." Pamphlets containing certificates of cures and recommendations from some of the most eminent physicians, clergymen and others, will be sent tree to any address.

They were introduced to, the public In 1835, since which time their reputation has extended, until they have a sale in excess of all other Cathartic and Purifying Medi cines. There is hardly a family among civilized na tions who have not personal evidence of their benefi cial effects. Their great success is owing to their uni. form reliability in cases of Constipation, Bilious and Stomachic diseases, whether of long or short duration. They are entirely vegetable in their composition, and harmless to the gentlest infant. One ingredient opens the pores of the skin; another Is diuretic, and stimu lates proper action of the kidneys; a third is emol• Bent, loosening phlegm and humor from the lungs; other properties are warming and cathartic, and cleanse the stomach and bowels from unhealthy Beare. Cons. Their combined effect is, to regulate the im paired functions of the system, and to produce health.
