Klugh's Grove, near Mountville, has been
repaired and is now in good order for par
ties who wish to spend a pleasant afternoon

Klugh's is a favorite place of resort for
many of our citizens. We learn that many
persons from abroad will spend the sum
mer months there.

which she was making great haste to the
river, for the purpose of drowning. Fortu

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.

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been repealed.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.

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

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.

The Suffrage Question in New York.
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

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

Minuenota..3s do
Wisoonedo..ls do
M1chigan......113 per cent
Missouri 81 do

The facts indicating the condition of the
crop are still more encouraging. The fol

ment upon last year

Mlonemota 7 do

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,

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.

AR- Iron In the Blood
The necessity of a due proportion of Iron In
the Blood le well known to all medical men;
when It becomes reduced from any cause
whatever, the whole system suffers, the weak
est part being tl rst attacked, and a feeling o
languor, lassitude and "all gousness " per
vades the system. 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,
