As it was however, he was a com- promise candidate. Wilmot was bought off •by a promise of - the Judgeship, which he now holds to the sorrowsof the pdoplo and disgrace of the Judiciary ; while Tioga with drew her candidate under a pledge that she should receive her full share of Congressional l *honors.,. under this afrangemen Grow was elected, and Wilmbt ascended t"t e`bench.— Two years after, Tioga demended a fulfilment of the contact, but Wilmot and Grow , re fused to comply with - the condition's of a bar ,gain under which they had received all that was pleligedeto them, on the ground that it had-been customary to return the' member for a second term.

Ho discussed no qiiestion prominently before 'the last. session of Congress, but indulged freelv'in assertion and denunciation. 'After exhausting the sla s very question; he proceeded to show the extravagancepf the Adniinistration, by com paring the expenses of goverrim'ent now and in the days of Washington and Jefferson. But he 'said nothing of the growth of the country; that its number,,,of §tates and members of Congress had more than doubled; that its commerce, then restricted, now ex tended over the world; that 'its flag floated over every sea; that agriculture - was en couraged and patronized ; that inland com merce ivas'sustained; and rivers made nasvi oablennd barbers made - safe; that a liberal policy was pursued- toward the Indian tribes upon our border,"ftud efforts fOr their civiliz-. ation carried on. at a - great cost'to the country; that the expansion of our territory, and the - multiplicgtion of our interests, foreign and donmstic,.. bad necessarily : increased the machinery of government fc.ur fold all this' l be studiously avoided, leaving his hearers to %fere what he- dared not utter. To have been truthful, he should bare said that the very expenses of he complained were made h up by appropriations voted by a Re publica n ;with.Corigres a Republican Speaker at its head. And more, that the large ap propriations for territorial 'purposes, far ex ceeding those of any other session, were re ported to the House by Mr. Grow himself ! Willmot followed in a brief speech, which -we have neither the time RM. the inclinatian to review. It is sufficient 'to say that, like Giow's, it was all slavery-7--slaverf—slavery.

A sufficient ntr tuber of good boarding places have been provided in private families, but in these hard times: . the majority of students wish to.economike, and they think they can best do so by 'boarding themselves.- I am satisfied, ,however, that, taking into account the inconvenience of moving furniture here ana moving it home again, the trouble of cooking one's oivn ."bread -and dinner," and the loss of time which is thereby occasioned, the wise choice e tween this, and boarding at 82.00 per week, falls very materially in favor of the latt4.r. , But we'eannot place oar selves as j edges pl this matter. Every farmer has a stock of provisions on • hand, which he can furnish to •his children,and,in these times, when sales are .c:r dull, it seems quite a differ- i ent tiring from paying money for board.

No can be touched for the payment of the volunteer. militia but this; and the sur plus, after it reaches the treasury, cannot be touched for the payment of any Division or Brigade military expenses. The State Treas ury is relieved from any burden or liability in these matters. Every county in the State is constituted a Brigade, and the-militia tax raised in each is applied to the payment of its military expen ses, and if the military taxes paid are less than the expenses, the volunteers of that Brigade must - then remain unpaid to that amount. There is established in every brig ade a Board of Auditors, composed of intli tafy men, who are required to audit the,mil kat)? expenses of their respective brigades, and are authorized to draw an order on the County Treasurer for such as meet theirap probation, to be paid out of the military fund, if any, in the Treasurer's hands. Military companies attending Camp " Sus quehanna" in September next, are entitled to daily pay for their attendance, which will be paid out of the military fund of the brigade to which they respectively belong, but should there be no fund in that particular brigade to pay the same, then the -4onipanies will re main unpaid, but if the collectors are faithful in thei r duties, each brigade will have a fund more than s'uflicient for this and their ordi nary expenses. The inks and regulathMs from thy office are now in the hands of the State Printer, aid will soon be ready for publication.

The oat trop is a bad failure throughout the entire West, , with get little exception:— It looked well .untiF it , had headed out, and then \vas .truck With rust, and ,soon wilted down the stem, breaking about the -centre, the heads dropped down upon each other, diving the oat fields a peculiar appearance, In some sections the crop has escaped' this blight, and is unusmilly good. . Barley is in good crop, and secured in order. than, the great staple crop of the Western country, in all lands where it was planted beforq the middle-of June and has been properly attended, is growing with a nal idfty bordering on, the miraculous; the color is a deep green, and the promise good, but, owing 40 the late wet spring- and over flow of bottom lands, a large quantity of land 'intended for this crop is now lying idle, and in many places where it had been planted, the soil being too wet to btu plowed subse quently, it .has been abandoned, and will' not come to maturity consequently. With an ordinary mild, and late fall, and good weath er during August-and September, there will be about two-thirds of last-year's crop, of this article gathered in this State, Indiana and Illinois, and in Kentucky abmit three-fourths of last year's crop ; but if this amount is se cured in good order, it. will'iat'exceed the, whole amount of sound corn 'gathered last year •in those Stater, owing to the general damage done last year's crop by •an early and . severe frost, and' the unusually wet damp weather during the season. The crop of hay is immense, and din pas turage. is excellent throughout the West.— Cincinnati Price Current, July 28. - "flrr 'b Ell AGAIN !
