THE CROPS.
Although wo are on the eve of a warn politi
cal campaign, yet we shall by no means neglect
Other interests. The farmer, especially, will find
the. .Post‘quite as interesting as heretofore.
Wo aro rejoiced to know that tho prospects
through oat tho country for bountiful harvests
were never more flattering than they are the
- present season. Daring tho last few weeks, we
have been in various portions of Western Penn
sylvania and Ohio, and, so far as we couldjadge,
the crops looked very promising.
Tho Armstrong Democrat of the 2diost. says:
“Tho prospect for a plentiful crop of fruit and
grainin this county was never better thanit is
at the present time. For 6ome years past, the
plnmh frees have nearly all failed in this borough,
but now they give promiso of a largo yield of
fruit. The.farmers anticipate a fine grain crop,
with tho exception of oats, the wet weather pre
■ venting a full oropjbclng put in.”
Tho Wooster (Ohio) Democrat says that “ the
' prospect for an immcnsocrop of wheatin Wayne
connty is unprecedented. The wheat is luxriant
beyond anything we ever saw in that connty, and
ont ofthe way of oil donger of blight, save from
rustßyo and oats look well—corn backward—
much replanting."
The Guernsey (Ohio) Times says, “the wet
weather has been unfavorable to corn, and mnch
has yet to be planted. A good deal of that sown
has'rotted; the wheat crop most promising; grass
crop fine. Frnit—apples, plums, cherries, quin
ces—will ho abundant; peaches scarce. The
season promises a rich yield.”
The M’Connelsville (Morgan co., 0.,) Chroni
de says: “The prospect for a good crop of op
ples.in this connty is very flattering. We also
leant that our neighbors of Washington connty
will have'a full supply of this frnit the present
.■ year.” ■
The Bucyrus (Crawford county, 0.,) Forum of
the :14th nit. says: “ from present appearances,
we ore going to have an abundant supply of np
ples this season. The trees are very fall of blos
soms. The cherry and plam trees bid fair fora
luxuriant yield. Peaches are all killed.”
Vie learn that the prospect for an abundant
crop of apples was never better in Franklin co.,
Ohio, Of cherries, there will be a medium crop.
Peaches will bo scarco,- and, of course, in de
mand..
Tile Galveston (Texas} Journal of the 13th nit,
says : A friend of oars, just returned from the
' Brazos, informs us that' Ihcre.never was a better
promise ,of a large cane' crop. The cotton, al
though retarded by the late cold weather, has
- recovered,'and ■ generally bids. fair to be large. -
The corn, though salfering some from tho drouth,
Is in a forward condition. The prospeot for
large crops was never better in that seotion of
tho country.”
TheMobilo IWiune says: « Although the late
frost this spring caused some injury to the wheat
crop .of South Alabama, wo are glad to learn’that
thoyicld will be generally satisfactory, both ns
to quality and quantity.”
t&&“ The Trumbull Democrat, published at
Warren, Ohio, by our old friend J. B. Buttles,
has enlarged its borders and made its appearance
in a new and beautiful dress. It is now one of
the handsomest and best papers in tho Buckeye
State. ■■
A ridiculous despatch was received at
Baltimore on Saturday evening, and posted on
the bulletin board of the Patriot, announcing
that Pierce declines the nomination. It caused
considerable excitement. Of conrso it was a
hoax.
Samuel Barker wits killed by lightning
Inhlontgomery county, Pa., on Thursday lost.
James McLenny was also killed by lightning in
Sampson county, N.: C., on the 27th ult. They
were both in a field at work at tho time.
Our excellent friend Charles ®. Behas,
of Strnttqnville, h Clarion county, has been ap
pointed; an Aid-de-Comp to the Governor with
the rank of Lieutenant Colonel.
Hon. George W. Thompson, of Wheel
ing, at present amembor of Tin« been
chosen Judge of. the VFheellng Judicial; District,
by a majority of nearly 2,000.
The Commercial Journal haß Stmok out
A new lead in the way of enterprise whioh should
entitle it to the appelation of the “enterprising
journal” of-onr city:
some time since, were in favor of Scott, ;aud no*
body else. But since the. nominbtion -of Geu.
Pierco; he seems to havo . modified, his ardor ~ in.
favor of his whig preference, -and now has a.
:::3UNE 10.
strong leaning to tho demoerntio candidate. - He -
appears to have; resolved i to make his : paper
every alternate day a Pierce and then nn.anti-
Pierco organ. One day he will set Gen. P. up
with a very complimentary notice, and the next
day endeavors to knock him down by a lick back.
The faot iB, the editor doOB not know what to say
against the domooratio: candidate. When he
feels inclined to speak- the honest feelings of his
heart, be cannot refrain, from referring to him
in: courteous terms, but when ho thinks of tho
fealty ho owes to the whig party, ho is forced to
use tho slang whioh the enthusiastic members of
his party consider strong against
theiropponents. His honest feolings appear to
bowith the democrats, bat his long and perverse
adhesion- to whiggery., induces- him to alternate
between tho two. Monday was the democratic
dsy with tho Journal, and he complimented our
nominee in the most: laudatory language. On
Tuesday, however,liistemper was whig, and ho
snarled and sneered in a manner whioh was no
doubt pleasant . to his party rcadofs; But yes
terday he was under the , democratic influence
again, and lie published two mortal columns of
good democratic matter. Wo love to see this on
the part of tho editor of tho Journal. Wo
know him to have been a most incorrigablo po
litical sinner; bat his present course, not only
on our national hut his own connty tioket, gives,
us hope that the grace of repentanao has reach
ed lus heart, and it is a cheering indication that
hB will cro long embrace the true faith, and
abandon tho errors he has practiced so long.
We have, also, a slight—but Very Blight—hope
of his coadjutor of tho Gazette. We obsorvo ho
is becoming as mild as a sacking dove, on tho
Presidential question, and has, comparatively,
little to say about the enormities of tho “locofo-
C 03.” Ho is equally quiet on the county tioket.
What docs all this mean? Wc do not wonder so
mnch at the amiable temper of the Journal, for
it is a “non-resistant,” bat the Quakerish con
duct of .the “billicose Gazelle,” whioh once re
solved to“fight on, fight ever,” surprises us ex
tremely. However, speculation ns to their pres-
ent course will throw no light upon tho Bnbjecl,
and wo will have to wait patiently nntil after the
lGtb, and then we will bo able to announce the
schutc each of our respectable cotemporaries in
tend to navigate. In the meantime, we would
advise each and both of thorn to write to Mr.
Fillmore, make an affectionate, enquiry about
tho state of his health, and, also, endeavor to
ascertain his prospects for tho nomination.
Tub Feeuno.— The Democracy appear to ho
thoroughly aroused to action by the nominations
by tho Baltimore Convention and aro everywhere
receiving the intelligence with a spirit which
shows that they will be most enthusiastically
Bnpported. : The ringing of bdls, tiring of can
non, and shouts and hazzas, are some of the ra
ther extravagant symptoms of the joy they ex
perience that the difficulty at Baltimore, which
threatened their destruction in tho next Presi
dential campaign, is so happily and harmonious
ly settled. Tho Whig party, it is evident, will
have a competitor worthy of their best man, and
requiring their most united and determined no
tion—Phil.-Ledger.
pggn. The above coming from a neutral paper
of extensive circulation and wide-spread influ
ence, shows clearly that the editors consider the
election of Pierce and Kisa as certain. The
truth is, wo have never known such enthusiasm
in the Democratic ranks ns exists at present.—
We have not heard of o single Democrat who Is
dissatisfied with, or will oppose the nominations
made at 'Baltimore. The Democratio party is
now united and invincible, and onr triumph in
November will be without a parallel. Thewhigs
know this—they feel it; and thoso of them who
have been growing fat upon tho spoils of cffice,
are beginning to tremble, like Belshazzar, when
be beheld the handwriting open tho wall. Their
doom is fixed!
Gen. Cosihandeb. —Some of the South Caro
lina papers are down upon this gentleman for
coming to Baltimore as a delegate to the Demo
cratic Nationol Convention. Tho Wlnynh Cou
rier publishes the nnmes of the forty-seven sign
ers to his credentials, and adds, that of tho list,
thirty-one where not born in the district —twenty
arc not natives of tho ■ State —fifteen aro Whigs—
and nine have no right to vote in the district,—
Balt. Sun.
The impndenco of that same Gen. Com
mander exceeds any thing wo have heard of or
read of daring oar potitioal life. Hispersevc*
ring attempts to represent the State of Soath
Carolina in the Democratio National Convention
were cool, to say tho least of it. We are truly
rejoiced to know that his ridiculous pretentions
were not considered for o moment worthy of bo
ing:entertained by tho into Convention at Balti
more. “Gen. Commander” should stay at his
Palmetto home hereafter, and lot the Democracy
attend to their own business; far they can cer
tainly get along without his assistance in their
National Conventions. .
USy* We regret to learn from the western pa
pers that the cholera is prevailing, to a fearful
extent at many points along tho river. The tel
egraph of yesterday informed ns that several
fatal cases had oocurred at Maysville, (Ky.,) not
far below ns, and wo fear it will wend its way to
our viciuity. In the small population of Lasalle,
Illinois, the disease prevails in an opidemio form.
At tho last.advices sixty deaths had occurred,
and a general panic prevailed. The inhabitants
wero leaving the town inlorgc numbers. These
reports should admonish oar city authorities to
dean and pnrify overy street and alley of tho
■dty. ■
B@“ The New York Evening Foil, we oro
pleased to see, advooates .the election of General
Prunes to the Presidency, although tho editor
doeß not altogether like the platform adopted at
tiio close of the Baltimore Convention. The
F'oit eays, in speaking of the nomination:—
! •< Tho testimonials of its popularity thicken upon
us. Sir/ Pierce, if alive on the fourth of next
Nlarch, will be tho President of the United
States. .Tho approbation,: the enthusiasm, the
fueling of confidence, with whieh-the Democrats
gverywhero receive the news of his nomination,
[ffe a sure proof of his success in tho election.”
f Itgy Tho - war between some of the journey
men printers of Louisville and the publishers of
the Courier has bccome-so -worm that they have
gone to a court pf justice to settle the difficulty.
Wo wonder if this long contest is not pretty
ranch like a quarrel about goats wool ? Both
parties appear to think: that tho quelling of the
Uittle tempest in a tea-pot whioh they have raised
i’u the only question whioh excites the. pnhlio
blind at present. If it is not settled soon it may
interfere with the presidential election and en
danger the safety of the Union.
; What is Said at Washington. —The Wash
ington correspondent of the Baltimore Daily
Himes (neutral) writes: “The ‘Young Hickory
bf the Granite Hills’ will awaken'the greatest en
thusiasm throughout the whole country. His
election is considered a ‘ fixed fact’ by tho De
mocracy, and there’ are found bnt few whigs to
dispute it I learn that when Gen. Scott heard
of . Pierce’s nomination, he remarked that he was
the strongest ffian in the Democratic party, and
complimented him very highly as a man of abil
ity andbravery.”
■ jESt* A German by the namo of Lawrence
Spinglo, a member of Capt Almstedt’s artille

Messrs, Editors : As tho coming Prosidential
contest promises to bo a very cxcitiog one, and
one in which all the energies and talents of the
opposing parties will be brought Into ploy, I
would suggest to the Democratic County Con
veatton which is shortly to assemble, tho propri
ety of plociog in nomination, for Congress, tho
most eloquent and most able expounder and ad
vocate of onr principles that tbo district can fur
nish.
If this course is deemed advisable by tho Con
vention, (ho name of the Hon. Charles Sualer
will at once suggest itself to that body, and his
nomination, I doubt not, would bo unanimous.
1 have no authority for saying that Judge
Shalee desires to bo a candidate. I know, how
ever, that ho is too high-minded, honorable and
Independent, to personally urge his claims ou
tho party, and I suppose his acccptanco of the
nomination would be attended with great pecu
niary loss to himself; still, if the party welfare
demands it, I feol assured ho will make the sac
rifice. ■
As a public speaker, Judge S haler has no
equal, perhaps, in Western Pennsylvania. Stand
ing at the head of his profession, ho bos acquired
a reputation which is ns extended as it is well
deserved. On tho stump he is most powerful;
and lam only saying that which most of the
whigs will admit, that he can demolish Richey
and Howe, along with Andy Stewart and any
other half doien they can bring to meet him.
Let us, then, nominate him.

A Good Hit.—Wo find tho following in the
Cincinnati Commercial:
Mr. Dempster, the vocnlißt, went a few days
ago to Indianapolis, to give a concert. On the’
morning of his arrival he took a look about the
town and not being oveijeycd at the appearance
of things was about to abandon his contempla
ted project, and so expressed himself to Mr, Tat
tle, the proprietor of the Palmer House. Mr.
T. told him not to bo nneasy; but this was of no
avail, until the landlord, getting his blood up at
suoh imputations against the Capital of Indiana,
offered him §5O for the profits of the concert.
The bargain was quickly closed, and the result
was, ntt proceeds, slB3—Mr. Tuttle paying the
eoncortizor $5O, and sinking $B3 in his own
trousers.
B®, The Washington correspondent of the
Baltimore Nun, writes under date of June 6th:
The Missouri Railroad bill has passed both

to-morrow on a motion to surrender the vote lay

without any tariff log-rolling.' The Ohio and
Mississippi Railroad bill will next come up, and
it is of more immediate nationallmportance than

To the Editou op Tire Hf.ralo.—Dear Sir;
—ln consequence of some misstatements re
garding my escape, which I have jast seen in
two or three of tho European papers, and which
appear to have been copied from an Australian
paper, 1 think it right to set the true facts be
fore the American public, to whom, alone 1 now
hold myself responsible.
The remarkable kindness I have experienced
from tho press, and the public generally, ever
since my arrival in this noble oountry, and tho
anxiety 1 feel to have it understood that 1 am
got deficient in tho honorable spirit which quali
fies a stronger to become its citizen, compel mo
to break the sllonco which no act or word, on the
port of my enemies, could disturb. The facts
aro these:
In the month of April, 1851, I was called up
on to renew my parole. I did so in writing,
and in the following words:—
I heroby pledge my word of honor not to leave
tho colony so long as I bold a ticket of leave.
I banded this pledge to the police magistrate,
in tho open court. Any one can see it who
wishes to refer to it.
Towards the end of December, the Borne year,
I came to the determination of attempting my
escape. Accordingly, on tho 3d of January
last, I sent tho following letter to the polioo
magistrate of the district iu which 1 resi
ded:— ,
Lake Sorell, District op Cajupbell-towh, j
Saturday, Jan. 8, 1852. j
Sir—Circumstances of a rcoent occurrence
urge upon me the necessity of resigning my tick
et of leave, and consequently, withdrawing my
parole.
I write this letter, therefore, respectfully to
apprise you that, after twelve o'clock to-mor
row noon, I shall no longer consider myself
bound by the obligation whioh that parole im
poses.
In tbe meantime, however, should yon con
ceivo it your duty to take me into custody, 1
shall as a matter of coarse, regard myself
as wholly absolved from tho restraint which
my word of honor to your government at present
inflicts.
I hove the honor to be, sir,
With sincere respect,
jour obedient servant,
THOMAS FRANCIS MEAGHER.
To the Police Magistrate of the District of Camp
bell Town. : :
The police magistrate received this .lottcr at
11 o’clock the same morning. I remained in my
cottage, at lake Sorell, until seven o'clock that
evening.A few minutes after that hour, four of
my friends arrived on horseback, and communi
cated to me the intelligence that tho polico wove
coming to arrest me. I went out with him into
the bush, and remaned there, : about 800 yards
from the cottage, until my servant brought the
news that the police had arrived, and were sit
ting in the kitchen. We mounted our horses
immediately, and rode down to the cottage.—
One hundred yards from it my friends drew up.
I rode'on until; I came close to tho stable, whioh
was within pistol shot of tho . kitchen door. I
drew up there, and desired him to go and toll
the police I was waiting for them; He left me
at once, and entered the cottage.
; Two or,three minutes elapsed j the police ap
peared. The moment they appeared I rose in my
stirrups, called out to them that I was tho pris
oner they camp to arrest, and defied them to do
so. This challenge was echoed by my friends
with throe hearty cheers, in the midst of
which, I struck spars to my horse, and
dashed into the woods in the direction of
the coast. Accompanied by my generous and
Courageous-hearted friends, I reached the sea
shore on Monday afternoon, at a point where a
hpat was in readiness to receive me. I jumped
from my horse, got into the boat, put off to Boa
and beat about there for a few dnyß, until the
ship, catno.up, which,. thank God ? bore me,.-at'
last, to a free and hospitable land.
In plain words, these are tho plain facts of the
case. As I have written them here, they were
written by one of my friends; at the . house
where we changed . horses, on our way to the
coast. containing them, was
forwarded next morning, Tuesday, to the editor
of the leading journal of the colony, and bare
the names of my friends, written by their own
bonds, in attestation of Us truth. The gentle
man to whom it wes sent, was instructed to pub
lish the names that were attached to it. He was
however, at the same time, requested to insert
the document itself in the next number of his pa
per,and was left nt fall and perfect liberty to
show the signatures to any person who might
Wish to be satisfied upon the subject, and would
pledge his honor not to abuso tho confidence re
posed in him, by involving the parties ooncerned
in any legal difficulty.
The men who vouched with their signatures
for the truth of the ; statement _ they made, and
nowrepented, are men of considerable property
and highly creditable position in the colony, nnd
no onejroold be rash, enough- to speak a single
word derogatory of their honor. I have the
honor to bp your faithful nnd grateful servant,

then water is poured over them, and after a duy
or two the liquor begins to ferment. In this
process of fermentation lies the principal dif
ficulty, And everything depends on allowing it
to continue just the proper time.' When the
water has .acquired a dark green color it is
poured off into other tubs, mixed with lime and
stired with wooden shovels till & blue deposit
separates itself from the water, which is then
allowed to runoff. The.remaining substance,
the indigo, is then put into linen bags, through
which the moisture filters, and as soon as the
indigo is dry and hard, it is broken into pieces
and packed up. Indigo is cultivated in the East

A Good Comparison*
IST The Rev. William Roulatt, a well-knownMetbo
diet clergymen, residing at Naples, draws the following
amusing but apt comparison, between Dr. Al’Lane’s
celebrated Vermifuge and a ferret
(> A terret, when placed at tbe entrance of a rat bole,
enters, the aperture, travels along the passant, seizes
upon the rat,exterminates his existence,and draws tne
animal’s defunct carcass to the tight. And in like man*
ner have I found Dr. M’Lane’s American Vermifuge to
operaioon worms, those dreadful and dangerous tormen
tors of children. This remedy, like the. ferret, enters
the aperture of the mouth, travels down the gullet, hums
round the stomach, lays hold *>( the worms, shakes tbe
life oatof the reptiles.sweeps cleau therr den,and car
ries their carcasses clear out of the system. Tins, at
least, has been the effect of the Vcra ifuge upon my
children.”
A neighbor of Mr. Roulatt, Mr. John Briggs, adopts
tbe simile of tbe reverend- certifier, thus both giving
their most unequivocal approval ol this great specific,
after having witnessed its operation tq>on their own
children. Let others try it, and be satisfied.
