Jorell'a "Email de Parts," for Enamelling
This secret of enamelling the skin being only known
to Jules Jared. he honorably states that it differs from
all other preparations, being scientifically composed
from plants and harmless gums, which produce the most
brilliant complexion, and give a 8011, even texture to the
skin, like that of an infant.
L'Email do Paris cleanses the pores from those nn
sightly black worm specks and .small particles which
give coarseness to the complexion, and by cleansing
Produces a healthfrd glow.. It enlaces. after a few weeks,
most happily, all scare,- and is especially successful in
eradicating the marks loft by small-pox.
"L'Email de Paria'' is endorsed by 14Plie Vestvall,
Mrs. Waller, and many other ladies in private life,
whose commendatory letters cannot -be • published for
obvious reasons.
Jules Jared's "Email do Paris" is not a paint, not a
powder, not at paste, but a most delicate preparation
that gives both the complexion and texture of polished
ivory to the skin. Ladies sojourning in the country, or
at the watering places, will find the "Email de Paris"
invaluable for ropey* discolorntioni caused by sun
burn or salt air.

PATRIOTIC DEMONSTRATION IN IN
DEPENDENCE SQUARE,
THE PEOPLE ENTHUSIASTIC
'Beneficial Results Attending the Ekcitement
THE HUNDRED-OATS MEN FALLING INTO LINE.
Under a spontaneous call Issued by the Union
League, a body of patriotic gentlemen who, though
entertaining different political views lu time of
peace, are united in feeling now in the hour of dan
ger to our country, a 'largo meeting was held at
noon yesterday in Independence Square. Early in
the 'morning a four-horse omnibus with a band of
musicians, appeared upon the streets, urging the
men to form at once the sth Regiment of National
Guards. The music had Its pleasant attractions,
and drew attention to the emergency. At twelve
arclock a number of members of the Union League,
with banners p esing and drums beating; started
from the League House and proceeded to Inde
pendence Square. -
Aliplicatiort was made by a committee to his Honor
Mayor Henry to have the main bell at the State
Houserung for a short time, The request was compli
ed with. Mr. Rick] ey, the ringer, performed the work
in his best style. In a short time the people came
to the centre of attraction and congregated within
the square., The meeting may be considered spon
taneous. There was no time to erect a stand; in
deed, such an institution was not at all necessary.
The meeting was improvised in accordance with the
principles of democracy. A Committee of the mem.
hers of the League brought a table which they
placed on the main stenstone, in front of the rear of
the great and sacred Hall of Independence. At
twenty minutes past twelve o'clock, the-last sounds
of the big bell having ceased vibrating on the hot
air, while, the mass of humanity in the square
,were sweltering under the vertical power of a
sun worthy of the tropics, the meeting was Organized
by calling the Hon. John Knox, Judge of the Su
preme Court, to the chair, awl the band played .a
tuvorite air.
In assuming the responsibilities of presiding offi
cer of such a meeting, the Judge said that this was
a spontaneous gathering of the people, without any
preparation having beau made, as is Wing in the
tortnation of public meetings. We have assembled
hero to take some action, to confer with each other
on measures to defend our country and our Govern
ment, and, by so •doing, defend ourselves in the
emergency 'that has arisen. [Applause.] It is
known to all that a great body of the natiopal forces
are now with Lieutenant General Grant [eheers for
Gcn. Grant] before Petersburg and Richmond. It
Is also known that the rebels have marched a large
body of men in the Shenandoah Valley; they have
crossed the Potomac, invaded Maryland, and defeat
ed Gen. Wallace and five thousand men. These rebels
have seriously injured the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road, the Northern Central Railroad, the Philadel
phia,Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad; they hare
captured two trains of cars and robbed the passen
gers of their valuables and clothing; they have
burned down 'dwellings of your follow-citizens of
lidaryland, have marauder' parts of that State, and
committed wholesale robberies and ether outrages,
and they now threaten the road between Baltimore
and Washington. Of the extent of this force of ma
rauders, we have no informationa. e hAt o paether e it r kg..

ex am I -'.. nir=
~ ;as r lon—[outburstof ap-
Mii—to compel themtb hastily retreat or destroy
them entirely.. [Groat applause.] All this and
more can be done without at all interfering with
General Grant, who is now nobly . and effeetively
thundering et the gateways of Richmond.
[Renewed applause, and cheers for Gen. Grant.]
The main object of the rebel commander is to com
pel General Grant, who has concentrated his forces
In front of their stronghold, to send some part of Ws
army to meet the Maryland invaders. The invasion
is evidence of the desperation of the rebels. They
know that if General Grant remains where he is
the city of Richmond must tall. [Great cheering.]
The army of Lee will be destroyed, captured, or
scattered, and thus - will take place the downfall of
the rebellion. [Renewed applause.] - Now, in this
emergency we have a very plain duty to perform—
we must protect ourselves. [Applause.] It is to
provide the necessary measures for-our protection,
that we have assembled on a hasty notice,
without the formality generally attend' ng such public
proceedings.. We uro here for a common purpose,
the cause of our country and freedom of human
rights. [Great applause.] We are not alarmed,
we are not panic-stricken; but we are together with
a firmness of purpose toloin and be armed in the
holy cause of a united Government to drive back
invaders and to crush out the rebellion. In con
clusion, the honorable president introduced the Rev.
Thos. Brainerd, who made an appropriate prayer.
The band now played a national tune, allot : which
the .
Min. William D. Kelley was introduced. The up
plause with which Mr. Kelley was greeted hating
subsided, he said that we had assembled upon the
spot where the Declanition of Independence was
read, to again pledge ourselves to what our sires
pledged themselves, to • establish and maintain a
tree Government of the people. When they pledged
themselves to effect an object by establishing prin
ciples unknown in the world, they had before them
war which to them might have been an endless
ono. We have met to maintain and perfect the
work they laid out for the government of the whole
land, and any man who is desponding or who
is afraid, let him hie to his house and hide himself
under the bed-clothes of his family. [Applause.]
All is not lost that is in danger. [Applause.] The
hour before daybreak is always the darkest. [Re
newed applause.] he had seen strong men In agony
on the tented fields or the hospitals ;he had seen
them again when it required many men to hold
tittle. He used this figure In regard to the rebellion ;
it now withers in the agony of its own despair. [Ap
plause.) The keys of Richmond are now In the
hands of Unconditional Surrender Grant. [Great
applause.] Have you read the story of the gallant
Wilson's raid 'I Brave men by day and night, in
the enemy's country, cutting the. roadways of the •
rebels in such an. effective style, that with all the
resources of the North they could not renew them
for a month. [Applause.) These brave men tra
versed the country, rode and fought until their na
ture was so much exhausted that sleep overcame
them while In their saddles, and they were only
awakened In the skirmish line of battle by - the click
of their own triggers. What they did, we can do.
[Great applause.] We should at once respond to
the call of the county; for three years, for two years,
for one year, or for thelemorgeney. Yes, my dark
skinned itiond—(here the speaker looked steadily ate
stalwart specimen of an American, of African de
scent)—the country will take you, as the prejudice
against your color has been overcome. The country
will take any one with loyal hearts, who is willing
to pierce a traitor's heart with loyal bayonets.
[Tremendous applause.) Ohio has tent forward
over 45,000 one-hundreit-days' mon. Now, if the.
Buckeye State call so respond, why should not
Penutylvanirt, the old Keystone 1 The country will
take you all, will furnish. you the means of transpor
tation, will provision you, and give you ammuni
tion. [Applause.) The capital of your country is
said to be endangered ; will you go to its defence for
one, two, or three years? If any of you cannot go
for that length of time, the country will takq you
for cue hundred days, or the emergency. "Ap
plause.] Come for a hundred days. [More applause.]
Come In a column large enough to drive the marau
ders for ono humbler: days, and the country will
not want you for three years. Give the country men
enough to put a column in Shepanduali Valley ;
this will add strength to Gen. Grant at Petersburg,
and allow another circuit to be made and eut.moro
roads than ever. Do this, and the present three
years men will come back In loss than a year. lie
had heard some men talk in a spirit of fault-finding
•
with Gen. Grant; these men, oh, yes, of course they
are fitter for his office than that great General, but
the Country 'doesn't know it. [Laughter and ap
plause.] 'Judge Kelley now.proceeded to state that
when he sat in his little office, or on the bench, he
did some things that, perhaps, with more experi
ence, he would have done differently!. And he was,
therefore, Inclined to find fault with no officer of the,
Administration or any general in the army. What
ever may be said about this general or that general,
If you want to know the state of things as they exist
now In Comparison to that of a year or two
ago, read the London Times. That paper for three
years has been sneering at the American army and
our Government, but now they "confess the corn,"
but have not yet acknowledged "the cake." He
did not, feel that lie could find fault with any gene
ral or member of the Cabinet or the President. If
there Is any blame, let it be placed upon the shoul
ders of the Americau Congress. General Grant
called for more soldiers, General Sherman wanted
more soldiers, and a bill was framed to meet Moir
views, but Its passage was delayed from time to
time, and it did not pass until the last week that
Congress was In session. The Copperheads la
Congress resisted this very bill step 'by stop,
the same as the rebels In arms have resisted
our army. In regard to the bill with the three
hundred-dollar exemption clause, that was so much
objected to by certain parties and newspapers, when
the bill was first passed; he would say that the exemp
tion. was stricken out. It was ascertained that
under that clause English and French gold was sent
to this country, the base of supplies being Southern
cotton, and the fund so raised was used in payment
for any Copperhead who might be drafted. Copper
heads, who had not enough money to pay for getting
.a pair of shoes half soled, paid their 000 commuta
tion, and thus evaded the service of the country.
When the bill came up, this clause was used as a
pretext for arraying the poor against the rluh,and was
moved to bo stricken out.' The attempt was resist
ed, inch by Inch; pretexts and:subterfuges wore re
sorted to to prevent the motion being adopted. The
record of votes on this Important question may be
found in the offteial journals.
At the first meetiog held in.Phlladelphla to Sus
tain the Union, he (the speaker) said that. lie then
pledged himself that he would as a member of
Congress, vote 'the last dollar In the locker and
the last son from the family fireside] in maintenance
of the country. Ile remembered that pledge, and,
therefore, voted to strike oat the throe-hundred-dol
lar exemption clause. Men on that floor who re
presented a loyal constituency, voted against that
motion, and thus defeated the whole bill until the
last week of the, session. • lie was glad to any that,

may he attributed to the supineness and
cowardice of the people of the North. We are
not colyards. [Cheers.) They who are worthy to

hoop their name untarnished, and let the word go
to-night to President Lincoln that we taro ready
with an army large enough to hold the valley of the
Shenandoah, and to drive the marauders from this
side or the capital. [Groat applause.] But the
capital is safe, as around it are a series of fortifica
tions exceeding in grandeur the famous earthworks
of Toddleben, that held England, France, and Sar

is, that our own homes may become tarnished. But

Mr.Fraley said : I came here today, not with any

possible, in any measures that might be required for
the salvation of our glorious country. I cannot
doubt that the requisite number of men from Phila

their duty as their fathers did. Let us resolve that

Nets -Jersey and the Emergency.
A large meeting of the citizens of Camden, New
Jersey, was held last night at the County Court
house in that town. The room was filled to its ut
most capacity, and there was considerable enthusi
asm manifested. The speeches were short, and the
practical effect of the meeting was shown in the
large number of names subscribed to the enlistment
rolls. Mr. George S. WOodhall presided, and Mr.
Sinnickson °brew acted as secretary. The chair
man maden brief address, after which Mr. A. G.
Cattell was introduced, being received with great
Mr. Cattail said that he had now felt the force of
the saying that the time for action, and not words,
had arrived. The question with every one should
be, What can he do to repel the rebelinvadersl
It could not be disguised that the present danger
was great and imminent. How many loyal men
were there in Oamden to avert the danger?
The solution of that question was all-important
to the honor of the people of New Jersey. This
was no time to be frightened. The speaker was as
confident that this rebellion would be final's , crushed
as that to-morrow's sun would rise in the east. [tip
lame.] He was equally sure that New Jersey would
In no contingency prove faithless to the Union. The
Invasion of the rebels was but an exhibition of des
peration on the part of the rebels. It only required
combined movement on the part of the loyal pee.
pie to counteract this last anon of the rebellion.
This country was worth fighting and dying for. He
would therefore appeal to his fellow-citizens to
come forward now in greater numbers than be
fore for the defence .of the country and its
institutions. He _appealed to those who . , cannot
go, to pledgethernselves to support the fa.milf‘s - bf
iho brave young fellows who would go to the field.
The speaker related an instance of Oamden loyalty,
in the case of an old gentleman who promised to
take the place .of a letter carrier, and pay toile
family of that person, if he went to the war, all the
money be might make in his civil position. •.

The peopleof this State seem to be fully aroused
to the real importance of what was, a few days ago,
considered nothing more than a raid of horse
thieves. Our exchanges g from all the large cities
and towns tell us of the rapid formation of militia
regiments for 100 days' service. New York city also
is bestirring herself, and already several of her ro.
giments are en route for "the front." The following
items are furnished by the New York dailies of yes

DEPARTUFF. OF MAFINES.—During yesterday and
Sunday the excitement was great, and a large num
ber of one-hundred-day s' men were enrolled for the
emergency.
On Sunday night some hundreds of sailors (the
exact number is not stated) wore taken from chore.
ceiving•ship North Carolina, and sent to Baltimore.
They were all experienced naval artillerists, of in
estim?thie value in their branch of the service to tho
defence of the city. The sailors went off gleefully
and joyfully. Since their departure the nary yard
lies been a centre of . great interest. There can be
little doubt that the marine barracks of New York,
Boston, Portsmouth, N. H., and this city win he at
once drained of all their available men to swell the
advancing oolumns of our militia. The headquarters
of the Marine Corps, as is generally known, is at
the National Capital ; and, between the nary yard
and the garrison, quite a respectable force could tai
mustered tor defensive purposes at Washington or
elsewhere.

Tenn:mg.—The reduction of the militia force of the
city is looked upon by Mayor Gunther with alarm.
lie protests against any considerable drafts of the
militia to stem the tide of the invasion, assigning
his reasons for the protest in the following letter to
Major. General Sandford :
MAYOR'S OFFICE, New YORK , July 11, 1804.
Major General Charles W. Sandford:
Sin: In these times of general and local peril, en
lightened self-interest is emphatically the synonym
of patriotism. The paramount duty of all those in
authority, whether civil or military, Is to carefully
guard the lives and property of their own fellow
citizens. Here in New York, the great centre of
commerce and wealth, it is a consideration of the
tirst importance, not only to ourselves but to the
general public weal, that we should not, brany ac
tion of our own, place these great interests injeo
partly by withdrawing our legitimate military pro
tection.
This protection, in case of riot. or popular out
break, is especially reposed in our organized city
regiments. I entertain grave .apprehensions that•
their withdrawal from the city at a time whon the
depreciation of our currency is bearing heavily on
the mess of our population might tempt the lawless
and evil-disposed to avail themselves Of what would
seem to them a favorable opportunity for arson and
plander. In such an event, which, In my judgment,
I regret to say may not be considered Improbable, I
fear that our excellent and powerful police would
prove inadequate to our protection In tho absence
of the military.'
1, therefore, most earnestly protest against any
material reduction, at this period, of 'our organized
and uniformed military force, especially when
ample supplies of troops can ho furnished to meet
any emergancy from points where no danger can be
apprehended of the character above allutied to, and
to which the city of New York, is so peculiarly ex
posed.
have the honor to be, very respectfully, your
obedient servant, 0. GODFREY GONTFIER.

lowing reply:

lion. C. Godfrey Gun ther, Mayor of the City of New
York: . .
Sin: Although I cannot concur In your definition
of patriotism, I fully agree with you in the necessity
of retaining an organized and disciplined militia
force in oar city, sufficiently strong to suppress any
attempt of the lawless and evil-disposed members of
the community to renew the scones of arson and
plunder which disgraced our city last summer, du
ring the absence of the city regiments.
In answer to the present call of the President
upon the Governor of the State, only thirty-five
hundred men have been detailed from this division

after this detaclunent is withdrawn, I shall still re

MILITARY MOVEMENTS IN THE STATE.—Outside
of New York little interest appearsto be manifested
in the movements of the Invaders. No steps have
been taken womanize militia forces; at least, none
are chronicled in the daily journals.

Pro4e . cti; or in, Good Hai.vest,
Our exchanges furnish us with the following ex
tracts giving a general idea of the state of the
crops in various parts of the country. They beto
ken a moderate htfrveA, but one that will fill our gra
naries with enough for the army and for home con
sumption, besides a little to spare for the needy in
foreign lands. in Pennsylvania the accounts arc
cheering. In the Cumberland Valley particularly,
the crops are as large as the largest average of
former years. The country journals all chronicle
1, big yields) , among their patrons. The following,
which we take from the Montgomery Ledger, Potts
town, which speaks also for Borks and Chester
counties, finds an echo in every part of the State :
'A few of the farmers in this vicinity commenced
cutting theirwheat and rye last week, but the work
in most of the , fields will be done.this week. The
reaping machine will be used almost exclusively in
cutting off the grain, owing to the scarcity and high
price of farm hands. The grain' crop in this region
is a very good one.
Our exehang_es all report the hay crop as an
averae one. The Bucks County Intelligencer says
that "the yield, everybody supposed would
be a very heavy one this season, turns out to be far
less than wasaxpeated. In most fields the grass is
.rather light, especially where there Is a good deal
or clover. Those who commenced mowing last week
were generally disappointed at the result. Ray is
now selling at about-dr2o per ton, and as the new
crop in Mrs region will not be more than an average
one, at best, the price is not likely to go down.
Several lots of grass in the neighborhood of Doyles
town have been sold at from *lb to 819 per acre."
From the southern portion of this great corn and
wheat State the reports of the wheat crop arc cheer
ing. Speaking of the prospects for the whole State,
an exchange says : "We conclude that the in
creased quantity of spring wheat that has been
sown, growing as it has been, and is still, under the
most favorable weather, will more than compensate
the damage done to winter wheat."
Nsw Yens.—The Skaneateles Democrat says :
"For the past ten days it has been hot enough to
balance the cold of the previous week or two. Grass
will he good if we Jo not have too much hot weath
er. Early-solved oats look fine • barley coming on
well ; spring wile*, but very little sowed ; winter
wheat, haw up generally; most was ploughed up and
sowed with oats. Late-sowed oats will be nothing
unless we have rain soon, and probably three
fourths were soled since the first or this motith, in
this section. Corn planted early, on dry land, looks
and grows finely, but that planted rather late, on
sod Inverted, looks hard, the ground being rather
too dry ibr it." •
In Onondagacounty and the counties immediately
surrounding, another exchange informs us, pros
pects arc equally,dull. It says: "In this vicinity
the yield of hay in old meadows will be very small;
on new, of course, it will be better. Wheat will
suffer least, and as it is likely to till well, even if the
weather continues 'dry, the yield may be an average
in this section. _Corn is not large, but has not yet
sustained scrioneinjury. The crop, with potatoes,
will do well enough if we have rain soon; otherwise
both will be spoiled. But the greatest disappoint
ment met with here is in relation to our tobacco.
We should judge now that but a small portion of
.the ground fitted for tobacco can be planted at all,
except upon a limited scale, by the aid of slow, ex
pensive, and laborious artificial watering."
A correspondent writes from Seneca county
"The last fourteen days of June favored the corn
crop 'unusually, and resuscitated thousands of wheat
fields in western New York,..which in early Juno
'looked like a dissert waste that no verdure quicken
ed. A farmer in Cayuga county writes that the last
half of June has made the wheat crop, and It will he
an average; fields that looked like a failure as into
as the loth of June, on the Ist of July promised
well.
has been said much truth that
and August - made the corn :crop,' but it may be
said that June has done it this season.; such long
hot days and warm nights rarety,come In June as
they did this year. I had garden sweet corn
laiated- :Was: ta. the llii, on the 25th. or Tune
n no Site Wild a half toes high. A short, warm
night promotes the growth of corn the next day
exceedingly:u_Vniler thettroPtes corn grows much
slower.than War-where, owing to the longer night"-
and shorter days. The hay crop in this region
ii%large, potatoes look well, and the early kinds will
soon be in • market. Marley and oats need more
rain, particularly on bard-run fields which were too
wet to.. seed ear/v.. But I notice thht the best
farmers have few such holds."
On the whole the New York crop a rites are not
favomblo, although it is too soon to form artopthion.
Early rains, however, will make vigorous corn and
crass.
Naw Jams - v.—The Warren Gazelle says "the
crops of grain and grass look Very promising in that
section, and that there will be a great abundance of
fruit. Similar reports come front all parts of the
State." Another account States "In New Jersey
the peach crop will be abundant. One producer has
ISO,t)GO trectin Ocean county that are bearing, and
is proptiling to send to market 224,000 bushels. Like
reports Come. from' Maryland and Delaware; and
through all the Central States grass, wheat, corn,
and irult willgive a large yield."
BlAtxu.+Correspondence from Franklin - county,
June 22, says
"The grass croP, though checked, is very good,
and there will be a good crop of hay if we have the
weather to procure it. Wheat and oats thus far
have promised better than corn, but for ten days corn
that was not frost-bitten too hard, has somewhat
changed the appearances. Sheep have not done so
well as usual, nor are there the full number of
lambs."
VERMONT.—This State is in the midst ofa drought
of unprecedented severity for this season, extending
through the entire , month of June, on .the Ist of
which grass never looked more promising; but,
alter eight or tea3,days, a severe frost occurred, fol
lowed by a cold* Wind and scorching sun, and at
tended in some places with rust, which prevented
timothy from maturing; and now hay-time has
come, and not, more than one-half of an average
crop can be secured., spring crops are already
seriously injured, if not ruined. 'Winter crops are
very much winter-killed. ' Corn, potatoes, and beans
look welt - Dab much withered. Pastures are white
under Ob'degrees in the abet e, 1201legrees in thesun,
with not dew sufficient to wet one's bare feet. The
sun rises and sets in tire and smoke, but not a cloud
for Weeks. Fruit, as a general thing, promises well,
thouglestrawberries are lost.
hla BRACH syrrs.—A. correspondent, writing from
West Roxbury, June 20, says : "The weather now is
very
-W dry:...Grass is suffering In some places. Corn
grows sioly and looks yellow."
CONNEOTIcIT.—A. correspondent of the Country
Cceltionan,,Writing from °Bethlehem, says: Corn
rather small; : but rye very good. Abundance of
fruit; but. the frost killed or put back some of our
sugar cane, so that It looks rather unpromising.
Olito.—A.correeptmdent from Huron county, un
der date of JUDO 22, writes : " Our hay crop Will be
light, from appearances now. Corn is badly cut up
by worms en all soil ground ; otherwise it looks
well. Wheat almost an entire failure."
The Ohio Ztaterrnan says .that three -thousand
farms In Ohio are left without a man to tend to
them. Thousands of fields. are left waste for the
want of hinds to cularate them.
""A' Fanitan" of Miami county, Ohio, writes
June 30th that they will have two-thirtla of an ave
rage yield of.whent ; that snore wassown than usual;
flax and barley are better than Last yehr ; oats are
about the same ; sorghum promises better; potatoes
will probably be half a crop, and corn gives fair
promise as yet.
The Springfield (Ohio) News of the 4th Says :
The recent rains have been too late for the grass.
except in the late meadows Land a light hay-harvest
is inevitable this year. Of wheat, we have re
liable authority for saying theca more than average
crop may be expected. The creaking ivith which
the season commenced has steadily given way to
more cheerful
. anticipatlons, ns is so often the case
and from the prospect of an utter failure we have at
length come to behold the fields ripe with a bounti
ful harvest. Oats are said to Le fn fair condition.
Corn and vegetables will do wonders,' if the balance
of the season shall prove as favorable as the last few
days.
Benjamin Wilson, .near, Woestor, Ohio, writes
June Nth, that the wheat crop of that region will
little, ii any more, than furnish the people with
bread and seed. He thinks four bushels per acre
may be obtained against eighteen and twenty
usually harvested. About. Ike. same quantity was
sown last fall as in previous years. Farmers did.
not plough up sp y last spring because they follow
the good habit of clovoring their field. More corn
than usual was planted. Not many. oats, but a
large quantity of barley and flax was put in.
Oats look poorly and flax is short, though the seed
alone makes it profitable. Grass crops are light en
account of the drought, which at the time of his
writing was broken' by rain on the 20th and 30th,
that will give the barley, oats, and other crops a
lift.
MICRIOAN.—From the Detroit Tribune, Juno 29;
we extract the following:
"The farmers in the vicinity of Pontiac have
nearly all commenced haying. Owing to the ex
cessive cold weather of last winter, and the present
drought, the crops will be very •Iliht. Wheat has
been matured to such an extent by e warm weather
that it will do to cut in some sections this week. The
crop will generally be light,. Most other crops are
being badly damaged by tho drought, except corn,
which is growing finely. •
" The greatest activity of the wool market Is over,
although there Is considerable to come yet, as some
have not sheared. The prices range from 90 to D 3
cents per pound. Some of the buyers have com
menced shippiag,"
The Detroit ' klve Press reports that in portions of
Michigan, including about one-half of that State, an
average crop of wheat will be harvested. In the re.
mainder of the State many of the fields will not pay
for harvesting, and many others have been ploughed
up for other crops. Preto . all reports from that
State, we conclude that the crop will fall far below
an average ono. •
The Adrian (Mich.) Expositor says: "We learn
that the grapevines do not show so much of injury
as was anticipated and feared, some varieties being
partially destroyed, others unharmed. The Dela
ware, Oonoord, Ulinten, and Hartford Prolific vede
ttes are all right. The Isabellas and Catawbas aro
Somewhat injured. The Isabellas, which wore frozen
down, aro sprouting from the root, and shoots have
from two to six bunches of blossoms each. Lovers
of grapes need not fear a scarcity of them this year.
Pears promise as well es apples. Cherries have gone
the same way as.the peaches—there will be bid few.
DI oat of the smell fruits promise full crops."
The Monroe (Michigan) Commercial says: "Wheat
has been coming forward vary rapidly of late, and
many fields which have been thought to be almost
worthless may yet disappoint theirowners by yield
ing half a crop, while some of the best fields, in
sheltered localities, will yield perhaps a full crop,
though In this country they will be few and far be
tween. mother portions of the State the reports
orb a little more favorable than they have boon.
We MVO scarcely ever seen a more abundant and
general blossoming of apple trees than has been pre
sented to:the eye this spring. in this locality and
from present appearances we are to have a fulfsup
ply of this staple trait, at least. Peach trees present
sorry appearance, being more dead than alive.
Of course,'we ;shall have no peaches. The trees
may possibly rooter, or some of them," Another
statement Is : 4 '7n Michigan wheat has improved so
much under the line growing weather that it looks
fifty per cent. better, and an average crop is
promised In one•hall the State; in the other half
the report is not so good."
luoinwn.—The New Albany (Intl.) Ledger or the
30th says:
"The wheat crop exceeds all expectation. Much
less smut than was supposed. The recent rains
have pushed forward the corn crop, and ail doubts
of failure on this score are now at an end."
Says the Owen county Journal: .
"The farmers are now in the midst of the wheat
harVest, and, as for as we can learn, the grain Is
very heavy nod of first-rate quality. Other crops
are suffering from the drought. A good rain now
would be worth thousands of dollars to the people of
Owen county.
Says the Fort Wayne Times of the Ist:
'Harvesting has already commenced in this coun
ty. The yield of wheat will be small. The dry,
hot weather has ripened the wheat before tlie ker.
'nets bed chance to fill mit. The rains of yesterday
helped the corn prospects very much.
Says the Franklin Jeffersonlan : "
The farmers have been quite busy during this
week harvesting their wheat. Never since our re
collection was the crop bettor In 'Johnson county.
The Randolph county Journal says
Our present wheat crop, is good, but light. The
corn we expect to -see do , tolerably well yet. It
will depend much on the length of the season. Po
tatoes are standing a worse chance. They Can't
wait for the ruins of August. Let things turn out
the best they can, we must have scant supplies and
high prices and we want to say to everybody, save
lip everything, and plant and sow everything that
can grow after this. Buckwheat and turnips es
pecially come in for attention. Lot farmers g 0 it
strong on buckwheat,. and let everybody In town
• anti country scatter turnip:seed over: all creation.
Plenty of them will help out much in the produe-:
Lion of milk, butter, and beef. •
tra.iwom.—A. writer for the Country Gentleman,
datim,v - his letter " Wheaton, June 20,".saye : " We
have been having a vary cold, dry, and backward
spell since .about the first of May ; consequently,
corn is small, and not a good prospect. Early-sown
wheat rind oats look well, but late.sowlng have suf
fered front drought. Meadows I never saw look so
bare at this season of the year as they do now. So
far as Ihave seen, or conversed with , lhrmers in this
vicinity, there will not be one-third of a crop of hay
this season. There Is much apprehension felt by
farmers, as they think of the coining winter.
Some are already offering their stock for sale,
as there seems no possible chance of securing feed
enough to carry them thrthigh the winter. 'Fruit is
scarce." Another correspondent from Rock Island
county, Tune lath, writes "We have had no rains
to do any good for six weeks. On the night of the
oth, 10th, and lath, the corn on low lands was frozen
to the'ground. Many acres through the county are
lost. Meadows light; pastures dried up ; wheat
heading out a foot high; .heads short; barley short;
oats are better, but short ; corn small ; many pieces
planted three weeks ago not up. Some fields of
corn look fair. The prospects , for good crops are
but li c if any better titan last year at this time.
The Minch bug is doing much harm in certain
places."
WiscoxstN.—A despatch froM Milwaukee;dated
June 27, states : "It has now' been almost two
months, since - we have had rain, enough to lay the
dust, and the worst' apprehensions of our farmers
in reg ard to the ruin of their. erops Is more than
verifid. Short-handed as they are, and obliged
to pay exorbitant prices for labor, the yield of
the State will barely pay the price of , harveSting."
A correspondent from Kenosha county'p, under
(late of Juno 21, says : "Our prospect . Mr crops
In southeastern Wisconsin is bad everything
suffering from severe drought. Such a drought has
nut been known so early In the season fur twenty-
LIM years that I have resided here. Wheat is suf
fering ; barley heading out, not over eight to ten
inches high ; oats no better than wheat ; corn worse
than the above; not one field in ten a good stand,
averages not over one kill in three. Hay on tame
meadows that cut two tons last year on an acre,
will not cut five hundred pounds at this time. 'ln
fact meadows are only decent feed. Pastures dried
up; Potatoes about an average." -
A correspondent from Madison writes as follows:
"As per promise, I will drop you a - line.' I have
no particular news of importance, except the fact,
which may Interest many of your readers, that the
crops of Wisconsin, and in ['actin many places in the
West, will prove an almost total failure, on account
of the unprecedented drought. 'Nothing , of the kind
has'ever before so seriously affected this part of the
country. -No rain has visited this section for six weeks
or more, and the earth,in consequence, is dreadfully
parched. All vegetation is more or less damaged.
sawl some very fair fields of winter wheat, Just
ready for the sickle, as Ipassed through Michigan,
but spring wheat generally, in the West, may be
.set 'down as a lamentable failure. - - - - -
The rain last Wednesday and Thursday extended
over Northern Ohio, and, so far as we have learned,
over considerable portions of lowa, Wisconsin, Illi
nois and Indiana. It also rained a good shower in
this locality. The people begin to think they will
escape starvation. 'file rains have now been so gene
ral that the drought is entirely suspended, except in
a few localities. The damage by dry weather will
not prove to be so great as was feared. In many.
portions of the West it rained again copiously on
Friday and Saturday.
MINDESOTA.—The 'Winona Republicsays: " There
was a slight shower We morning, the good effects
of which are apparent everywhere. It is not Im
possible, after all that has been said, that this
country not altogether given over to destrtfction
by drought yet. The crops are looking well, and
are In DO immediate danger of injury from dry
weather.'
Another account says: "In MinneSota, the pro
spects for a full crop, If reports are trustworthy,
were never more favorable."
A third states : "1511nm:soh" sends a good report,
and a very largo crop is anticipated."
Kaweas.—One paper says : "In Kansas the win
ter wheat was badly damaged, nearly destroyed, by
the freeze. which cut 11. short hero, but the spring
wheat is doing unusually well."
Another (the Leavenworth Conservative) states:
"Nansns, for the most part, has been visited by re
freshin rains, though a little more of the same sort,
especially
in this vicinity, would do no damage to
the crops."
Iffissount.—The St. Louis News states that in the
central and southern portions of Missouri the most
cheering prospects exist, and that a full crop of
wheat will be realized. In the northern portion of
the State, where not totally killed by the freeze of
last winter, the yield will be good.
.The St. Louis Republican says, that although
many parts of Missouri have suffered from drought
in the last two months, still some localities have
been benefited by copious showers, and there the
crops have a different appearance. All the spring
planted crops were put in late and are backward.
Corn is likely to turn out fair, but wheat, barley,
and oats, arc not up to the average.
Another statement is : "In Central and Southern
Missouri the wheat will be a lull crop, though a few
months ago it was thought to he winter killed."
TEXAS AND LOITISIANA.—A terrible drought pre
vails in Texas and Louisiana. Theirries are so
baked and so cracked into fissures t horseback
travel is dangerous and wheels imp stable. Cattle
are dying in great numbers because the springs,
creeks, bayous, and rivers aro dried. A recent
traveller by the Gulf coast says that he passed thou
sands of carcasses of cattle which had come to
the seashore and drank salt water until they died.
The effect of this upon the rebel supplies from
Texas can be easily seen. They depend upon Texas
for their beef.
E=i2
Some of the accounts printed above may seem
discouraging, and for that reason we have predicted
only a moderate harvest. But recent rains In many
localities have, since the accounts wore written,
materiallytmproved the prospects from those of no
crops at all to those of average, or even bountiful
yields.
In many States of the West the severe cold of last
winter, the late spring frosts, and the withering
drought of this summer, have materlallyinjurod the
wheat. But r notwithstanding the Inevitable croak
ings resulting from this state of things, the injury is
much less than the croakers would have us believe.
There Is always a gloomy time in the minds of many
farmers, and the press very soon echoes their opi
nions. Though, doubtless, less than tho average,
yet the greater breadth sown, especially in spring
wheat, will make a fair prospect for a Oestern crop.
The corn prospect presents nothing discouraging.
Several accounts speak of large plantations of Chi
nese and Implies sugar-cane, and that the promise
oT a large yield is flattering.
In the Eastern States there is a general complaint
of the capricious changes of weather. Two weeks
ago the weather was very cold ; now it is very hot,
and all crops are, consequently, suffering.
In the Middle States, the cold wet spring, late
frosts, and subsequent severe dirouhgt, have unques
tionably made a light hay orop in most localities,
though it was secured in capital ordor. Oats and
potatoes generally cannot come up to an averago
yield ; but corn is not yet seriously injured. Wheat
is varying in quality, but generally good. As this
Ls the time for sowing buckwheat and late turnips,
it would be good policy in farmers to lay in as large
a breadth as possible. Buckwheat especially will
go--a great way to supply the, deficiency in the
Western wheat crop. Largo fruits are generally
prointsing. loaelies that of late years have been
smith in size and miserable in' quality, look bettor
this year than over before. A full supply of the
luscious fruit may be expected.
The Pirate Florida.
PARTIOULAES OF THE OAPTURH OF THE STEAM=
Nan , Yeatx July 12.—0 n Sunday afternoon, Cape
Ben!open being seventy-five miles northwest by
north, the steamship Electric Spark, Captain J. (3.
Graham, on her voyage from this port to Havana:
and New Orleans, was boarded and taken possession
of by the privateer Florida. When the Florida was
that discovered, she was distant about fifteen miles
to the northward, and making for the Electric
Spark, which she gained on rapidly. When some
seven or eight miles distant, the 'Florida hoisted the
English flag, which she kept flying until within
twelve hundred yards of- the steamer, when the re
bel colors were substituted, and a shot fired astern
of the Electric Spark, closely followed by another
across the bows. The steamer not Coming to Immo
tilate)y, a shell was fired, which, after striking the
water a few feet from the vessel, passed directly
over fier, about midships. The steamer then , hove
to, and was. Immediately boarded by a party from
the Florida, who took possession of her, and ordered
the captain on board the privateer with his papers.
No personal property was destroyed or taken, but
the steamer, with all the mails contained in sixty
five bags, was retained.
The English schooner Lane had been previously
boarded by the Florida., and was near by at the time
of the capture of the Electric Spark. Both steam-.
ors were soon headed for the schooner, which hove
to until they came up. The captain, crow, and pas
sengers; about forty in number, were then put on
board the Lane, which was bound to this port. For
the performance of this duty the captain of the Lane
is said to have been paid seven hundred and twenty
dollars in gold by the captain of the Florida. The
Lane arrived hero last evening.
The Electric Spark was built in Philadelphia, and
Is owned by Wm. J. Taylor h. Co., of that. city.
The Electric Spark made a very narrow escape
from destruction, being mistaken for a transport.
Bad she net stopped after the third shot, a broadside
from the rebel battbry, which was in readiness for
the purpose, would have destroyed her.
The crow and passengers are represented to have
been well treated after her character was dikovered.
ARREST OP THE SELF-STYLED REBEL COLONEL.
—Gen. Dix having learned through a recent 'publi
cation in the Advertise?* of the presence in this city
of a person giving his name as Thomas .Tofferson
Stanton, and styling himself a paroled rebel colonel,
sent an order here for his arrest. During the morn
ing several officers were upon his twtck, and at noon
Officer Lang succeeded in arresting him in the
Shinies,"corner of Muibrory and Mechanic streets
where he was enjoying himself with a number of
sympethizing admirers. Re was quietly taken to
the office of the provost marshal, and subsequently
escorted to Now York by Col: Crockett.. Stanton
nckpowledges that he had been indiscreet in hie
language, and presumes his arrest was made on
that ground. Ile asserted, however, that ho raper ted
to Gen. Dix about a week since, and was allowed to
go. Since his stay in this city he has lost no oppor
tunity to denounce the Government and the North.
After his arrest he vi as• followed by his admirers,
ore of whom indignantly asked the officer upon
what authority he was making the arrest. Many
believe that he is an impostor, and very few think.

The result of Mr. Fessendents visit to New York
has not yet transpired. A New York paper, in re
ferring to this interview with the financiers of that
City, says that no plan was suggested by Mr. Fes
senden, nor will any be proposed until he has fully
made himself acquainted with the opinions of the
financial authorities of the leading commercial
Centres. It IS, however, known that he comes to
borrow, and use the existing money of the country
instead of attempting to carry on the Government
by due bills of hourly decreasing value. It is fully
realized that any increase of circulating money, dis
guised by bearing.nominal or small interest, would
be calculated to cause a currency panic, and so put
the treasury in a worse condition than ever. What
the Government wants Ifs the use of the existing.
money of the country, which is not only ample but
in excess of Mr. Fessenden's wants, large as they
are. The only process by which the treasury can bo
kept full is by borrowing at the highest sate allowed
by law, and putting the Government credit squarely
in competition with all minor credits.

The report of the Auditor of the State banks of
Illinois shows that the banks hold in State bonds
$562,209 as the basis of their circulation, whilst the
total circulation is 6'412,094. On the 2d of January,
1562, the circulation of the banks was $1,415,036,
Showing a present decrease compared with that date
of $943,072. In 1862 the number of banks and
branches was 10 ; on the 4th of July, 1664, the nutu
tier was 244 This large reduotion of circulation,
whilst the number of banks has increased, is one of
the effects of the preference fbr greenbacks shown by
the people of the West.

The New York Post of yesterday P.TS:
.The loan market is more stringent, in conse
quence, partly, of the heavy Government drafts on
the national banks, but there aro Indications of ap
proaching ease. The outward How of greenbacks
from the city has been ' checked, and a contrary
movement is setting in.
The stock market opened dull and closed heavy.
The speculative movement spirit is checked by the
prevailing incertitude and suspense.
