Our Agricultural Prospects.
THti eftoPf; THRotratiouT THE COUNTRY
winiam Truellen, Special Agent of the
- rvlrnpartinent for the West, has arrived
at Washington, and reports the prospects for
c rops in the lower Mississippi Valley much
better than heretofore supposed. The leasing
of abandoned plantations by Northern men
proved a losing speculation in 18113 and tarn,
but is likely to be very remunerative the pre
sent season.
A much greater breadth of cotton was plant
ed this spring, and the region between the Ar
kansas end Red Rivers iS7begiunbrn to assume
1011011.11(Yragricultural importance. Wherever
the cultivation of cotton could not be returned,
corn has been planted almost exclusively, and
an iMITICTISC yield is promised on hundreds of
plantations.
Nearly all the planters between the mouth
of the lied River and the Gulf had devoted
.themselves to sugar-growing for years before
the war. The stoppage of all extended opera
tions in Gris region the first two years of the
war reduced the amount of Cane to such an
extent that but half the land has been planted
in any season since. Last year it was esti
nutted that more than half the cane grown was
saved for seed; consequentlyvery little sugar
was made. It is not known what proportion
of this year% Calle NN ill be saved for seed ; but
the probabilities are that the amonnt of sugar
unumfactured will stilt lie insignificant with a
continuation of Um present favorable season.
'e planters can all be well supplied with
cane seed for next year's crop, and the usual
amount of sugar is expected to be thereafter
made.
Some losses by inundation have occurred in
the vicinity of take Providence and other
calities where the levees were destroyed by
Federal armies, but these have been fewer and
less disaStrtins than was generany appre
hended.
The St. Louis Republican says: The reports
of the crop prospects from Missouri anti Illi
nois are upon the whole highly favorable. The
present splendid harvest weather will enable
all the farmers, who can command the neces
sary amount of labor, to secure their summer
crops in the best condition. Wheat has suf . -
fervd front -rust, but to what extent cannot be
fairly determined till the grain is threshed. A
large breadth or land had been appropriated
to its Cultivation; and it may be prasumed
that; after making all proper deductions
on account of this mischief, the product
will be above the average. Barley was exten
sively winter-killed, an will furnish but a
i
meagre yield. live s a very good crop. The
grass crops have been most luxuriant, and the
yield unusually abundant. Oats,too, will
come in well. the tobacco fields ook imely ;
and the promise of corn, though much of ib
was planted late, was never better. We may
close this brief summary with the remark that
our gardens were never more profuse in their
supplies then they have been this season, and
that the peach and apple orchards promise to
yield far more abundantly than the average of
the last three or four years.-
In Northern lowa the tremendous rains, in
the hitter days of June, washed out the corn,
and there the crops will be almost an entire
failure. The potato, in lows, is ruined by the
bug. Fruit promises a fair yield; peaches in
Particular, of which there will be a great
abundance. The apple crop will be light, but
of fair quality. Of Sinall fruits there is a gene
rous supply.
EMS=
The Augusta (Ga.) Constitutionalist says: It
5 reported that the crops through the country
bordering on tbe coast arc in a very flourish
ing condition, 'notwithstanding the devasta
tion in parts - where the army has passed.
:Everything wears an animated appearance,
andpronriars a$ good a harvest as conidhe ex
pected.
=Z!
The Erie Dispatch says: The crops in this
vicinity look admirably promising. The wheat
is "ripening to the harvest," the barley is
nearly ready for the reaper, and rye is fast
reaching the climax, while the oats are al
ready heading at a very fair height from the
ground. The prospect for small grain never
looked better: Corn is of excellent thrifty
edlor—is growing rapidly, and Will, we have
Tea Sell to believe, eXeeed the crop of last year
by from a third toe half. This is the estimate
of old farmers in some sections. Garden
truck—candy corn, peas, beans. pOtatees beets,
turnips, ete.—are fairly astoniShing their Pro
ducers by the rapidity of their growth and
good quality.
- The Franklin .Repovifory says: Within the
past week the will-weevil has appeared in the
wheat in the vicinity of Chembersburg, and
has been very destructive. :Most of the :sledi
terrancan Wheat on the heavy limestone lands
has been very seriously injured ; but the white
wheat, as far as we have been able to learn,
has not been disturbed by it, as the
. psalm
were too hard when the weevil made IL3 all*
pearance. Sonic - fields of barley wheat in that
neighborhood are almost entirely destroyed.
In Maryland, the wheat crop, which is now
being harvested, it is said, is considerably in
ured by the weevil and rust. la York county,
Pennsylvania, the weevil has also been de
structive.
The NorristoWn (Montgomery county) Herald
says; The reports current some .codes ago
concern lag Inc c-rep rroiApeets, were all of the
most favorable character, and calculated to
induce huge expectations of it heavy yield.
since that time, however, as harvesting drew
31(111', all the information respecting the wheat
crop lies been of a most discouraging charac
ter. It seemed that the longer it remained
upon the ground the poorer it became. In this
county it has sulferod some, but not seriously,
flO - 111 rust, but much more from and weevil.
For some reason the heads are not well titled,
the grains being small and imperfectly formed,
and this is Said to have been caused by rains
or high winds which blew the pollen off the
bloslinns on the grain, at the period when this
made its appear:owe. Many fields in different
sections of the County are scarcely worth har
vesting, and many more will not give more
Than a third of a yield. On the whole, from all
the information we can obtain, we do not be
lieve the wheat crop of Montgomery county
will be more them: half an average yield.
The recent rains have bad a very favorable
elreet en the oats, and it is generally of large
growth and heavy beaded. For the last year
or two it has been infested about liarVeSt time
with a peculiar sort of louse, which bits done
it great damage. It is yet rather too soon to
speak .confidently as to the prospect of u visit
from this pest this season.
The corn generally looks well, and promises
very handsomely thus far. Some of the most
forward fields are about coming in tassel, and
with very few exceptions, the crop is thrifty
and growing rapidly.
The bay is a very fair yield, but considera
b/e has not been "housed in good condition.
It is also greatly mixed with weeds, in many
localities.
Early potatoes come lan better tban late
ones. With this excepl ion the latter look well,
and thus far give good indications of a large
Efforts of Ba 4 Air.
At the request Of the Royal Commission,
which has recently reported on the tonditioit
of the Cornish and other metalliferous mines,
Dr. Angus Smith examined. the quality of the
air which the miners have to breathe, to the
impurity of which is chiefly attributable the
early breakdown in their strength. Ahealthy
atmosphere may be taken to be one with 4 20.9
per cent. Of oxygen, and .01 per cent. of car
bonic acid gas. late in the eveningin the pit
of London minor theatres as lunch as 0.112 and
0.120 per cent. of carbonic acid has been Mend;
but the average of above three hundredsam
ples of air taken from these Mines had 0.1 , 81
Two-thirds of the samples presented an atmos
phere exceedingly bad, and. the worst parts of
the mines had only about 18.69 per cent. of
oxygen, and as much as 1.8 or more of carbonic
acid ill One inSialtee 2.25 per cent.
In order to test the effects of such bad air '
Dr. Smith caused to be constructed a small,
close chamber of lead, with windows :mai
eientl2,- huge that they might in any emer
gency be broken through for a way of escape.
The first trial was made by sitting down m
the Chamber for an hour and forty minutes.
This produced abut one per cent. of carbonic
acid, and the air became cheerless. A young
lady was anxious to be in the chamber when
the air was such that candles would not burn.
She was not nitndi strife!: by the impurity of
the air on entering, although the candles
were threatening to go Out. There was not
quite nineteen per cent. of oxygen, and there
was rather more than two per cent. of car
bonic acid. No one-had been breathing in the
chamber, so that. organic matter from the per-
EiOn was absent, and that makes a great differ
ence. :Mc stood live minutes - perfectly
making light of the difficulty, but suddenly
became white and could not come out without
help.
On another occasion a still greater amount
of carbonic acid was present in the chamber, '
but it was not accompanied witha correspond
ing loss of oxygen, for the gas was driven in
upon pure air; there were Dim per cent, of
oxygen, with 1.84 of carbonic acid. Two par
sons got headaches instantly, and were unable
to stay above seven or eight minutes. Dr.
Smith stayed about twenty minutes, but felt
very anxious to get out, as his ifievernfefts
were made with great baste, and both Intact
and body betrayed symptoms of feverish ac
tivity. The face was flushed, and the lungs
actect more rapidly than usual. in fact, there
was a burning haste to live, as if life were
afraid of being put out. It seems to big im
possible to endure four per cent. of carbonic
aeid for any length Of time. There was a very
remarkable lowering of the pulse, and as tins
happened regularly he puts it down as the re
sult of poisoning with carbonic acid gas, and
asks whether it may not suggest a mode of
lowering the pulse in a fever.
These experiments show the great mischief
that must arise from the impure, imwhole
some air in metalliferousmincs. The men call
it " thin," "Poor," " dead ;" the effect is slow
poisouing. £hi, explosions of gunpowder pro
duce sulphide of potassium, the etlect of which
is probably like that of sulphide of hydrogen,
but from its acting more slowly there is distri
buted over a long period that death which
might ensue instantly, and so, in chemical
plouse, the effect is dissolved in health, and
becomes disease. Gun-cotton seems to pro
mise to perform the work of blasting with less
injurious influence upon the air.
In , the Celli districts, where, on account of
the dangerous gases, great attention has been
given to the proper ventilation of the mines,
the mortality taceblents excepted,) is min-
B iderams- less than in the metalliferous dis
tricts, !old this shows that the excessive mor
tality in the latter iS not caused by the mere
working under-ground In dark galleries.
Dr. Smith touches incidentally in his report
- upon various points of pract ical . importance.
lie notices the purifying effect of ram upon the
air, of which there was such a scarcity last
year. Moisture with a high temper:dare is
oppressive, but moisture with a lower tem
perature improves the air, and he holds that
cold and moisture in such amounts as those in
- which they are found in great Britain are ea ,
gable of producing powerful constitutions, and
that the more watery districts Of the kingdom
present in many instances the most healthy,
spot. Still, in relation to ventilation he notes'
that "chemical action, and with it the feel
ings, demand a certain amount of warmth
first, and above all things. No function can go
on without it. You may live hours, days, or
years in Aridly VelltiNtOU places, with more or
less discomfOrt and danger, but a draught of
cold air may kill like a sword—in railway
carriages, in houses, also, the great instinct of
man is first to be warm enough; and: lie is
quite right. Such a universal instinct must
not be sneered at Paper.
A LONDOS Homet.—in a quarter of London
quite as fashionable as Madison Square is for
New York, a company of noblemen and gentle
men have erected a hotel at an expense of
4 , 1,500000. The building is splendid, alike as to
'its dimensions, its style,ilS decoration, and its
furnishing. Leery improvement su g gested by
our American hotel. system, as well as by the
best Paris hotels, has been introduced. The
building is perfect ly tre , proof ; but, as an extra
precaution against all sort of risks, water is.so
abundantly supplied from an artesian woll, to
tanks distributed throughout the building,
that anything in the shape of Arc could,be
quenched almost in an instant.

the boat for a few minutes. When the fisher
men TCCON emit their presence of mind, they
rut an end to his ponderous antics by break

which measured a few inches over seven feet
in length, and was estimated by an expert to
weigh about 250 pounds. flail the fish fallen on

,They took from him al, all he had. After they
- had gone, East walked to a neighboring hos
pital, where his wound was dressed. Informa
tion was then given to the police on duty at
the Baltimore depot, and they went to a saloon
in the vicinity, where the soldier, through the
window ' recognized Donnelly and Burk, who
were at the bar drinking, as the men who had
robbed him— Upon seeing the officers, Mirk
attempted to slip two five-dollar legal tender
notes into the pocket of Donnelly, but failing
in this, the money fell to the - floor. Ile also
attempted to pass out of his possession the
blaelijairk with which he had struck East. In
this he likewise failed, lie one of the officers
saw the effort and arrested it. They were then
taken into custody, and were fully identified
by a vast as the robbers.
The defendants called witnesses to prove an
alibi;
. but only one of them testified that he
was with the . defendants durhig the period
which would cover the time fixed by East (be
tween 9 and 10 o'clock in the evening) as the
time when he was robbed. But his testimony
was . so contradictory as to make no im.pres-
SiOn. another of the witnesses, Benjamin Tay
lor, a hack-driver, testified that he saw the pro
secutor, East, sitting on a log in the neighoor
hood of Nineteenth and South streets, at half
past 9 o'clock on the evening' of the robbery,
and that subsequently, at httlt-past 11 o'clock,
he saw him in the same place in company with
five or six others, and two women; that while
watching them, a struggle ensued between
East and one of this party, in which East was
knocked down. After he got m? he again
joined the party, and they all sat down again
together. Taylor said that neither Donnelly
nor. Burke were of the party_
The defendants likewise called witnesses as
to character.
. .
The:it/I.v rendered a verdict of guilty as to
both defendants.
In imposing sentence upon these two men,
Judge Allison said this thing of robbing sol
diers was becoming too common. He was
astonished at the number of cases of this eha,
racier that had come before him during the
present term. The smut of money taken from
these soldiers were, in many instances, large,
and earned by long exposure to hardships and
danger. The law empowered him, where a
robbery was committed, accompanied, as in
this case, with an assault with a deadly wea
pon, and at night, too, to impose, as a punish
molt, ft fine not exceeding $l,OOO and imprison
ment not exceeding ten years. These dis
charged soldiers mast be protected, and he
intended, while discriminatin g in favor of one
of the defendants, Donnelly, because of his
youth, euid nig° because lie Meld been a soldier
and wounded in the service, to impose such a
sentence as, he trusted, would be a warning to
others disposed to follow in the footsteps of
the defendants.
- -
The Judge said he had. since the jury ren
dered_ their verdict, made inquiries of persons
who were much about I:road and Prime streets,
in which neighborhood these outrages were
constantly being perpetrated, and he luta been
told that one of the defendants, Burk, was a
had, and, perhaps, one of the most dangerous
men in that part of the city.
The sentence Was that :Burk Should pay aline
of $lOO and undergo an imprisonment, In soli
tary continementiat labor, for ten years. Don
nelly was sentenced to undergo a like 'im
prisonment for live years.
-
ASSAULT AND BATTERY.
Franklin Morris was convicted of having
committed an assault and battery on the Rev.
J. Wheaton Smith, in March last. Mr. Smith
said that he was on his way to the stable where
he kept his horse ; when near there ho observed
a party of young men, of whom the defendant
was one, attack and maltreat a negro who was
carrying sonic sort of a banner, which they de
stroyed. The negro, in escaping from them,
passed by Mr. S., who said to him this was an
outrage ; that he knew some of the party, and
that it he desired to prosecute. them, would be
a witness,-or something to that effect. lie then
pursued his way into the stable, where, having
ordered his horse, and while.in the actof fasten
ing on his spar, the defendant came in,
himand
without warning or provocation, struck a
violesit blow with his list on the side of the
head.
Judge Allison said this seemed to be a ease
calling for something more than the puuish
meat ordinarily inflieteil for assault and bat
tery, and sentenced defendant to six months'
imprisonment.
Sarah Gordon, convicted last week as acces
sory to the robbery of a - soldier, was sentenced
to an imprisonment of eighteen months.
Frederick Wilson, who pleaded guilty to en
tering a house, and stealing therefrom two
coats valued at $2O, was *entencod to nine
MOntbs 7 inapriconment in the county prison.
