Democratic Paper*.
We call attention to the fact that a more free
circulation . of Democratic papers among the
people must be to their benefit as well us to that
of the party. Why should any farmer ben ith
out his own county paper? Why should any
Democrat., fur the small amount of Two Dollars
per year, deny himself the pleasure of reading a
newspaper at least once a week?
In fact most of our farmers should take two or
ihree papers, and no one is so poor but that one
paper at least could be taken in a family. We
hope that the question of newspaper circulate
will be taken in band by the most setivt. Dem
ocrats in each locality, and worked hp until ev
ery Dernoctic in Susquehanna county will
have a paper representing his principles sent to
his address.
Look to it at once, for the whole que , tion de

people upon the issues before them.

The Grossing Crops,
The April report from the Agricultural De
partment of the grivetlment shows that the ap
pearance of wheat is not as promising as it was
last season at that time. In New England the
little winter grain which was sown is doing,
well, though the frost has visited with unfortu
nate results some of the northern counties of
Maine and New Hampshire. In more than one
half the counties of New York the reports * are
hivorable, and the same is the case with New
Jersey. In Pennsylvania the growth is more
iackward, and in many sections of the State the
wheat was winter-killed. The returns from
Delaware and Maryland are meagre, and report
some damage to grain front ice and cold. From
the Southern States the reports promise a crop
of wheat, on the whole, above the average. As
• whole the report is considered favorable for
the coming crop.
