.4 1 , , , , , . : ' ....MIIIMfl! Kossuth's Prophecy. When tho siege of Sebastopol was first proposed , Kossuth expressed the follow ing decided opinion on the subj ect, which seems now quite liKeiy to bo realized: "To take an intrenched camp, linked dj temoie fortresses, and an arm y for a garrison m it, and new armies pouring on your flank and rear, and you in the plains of the Crimea, with also no cavalry to resist them, is an undertaking, to succeed in which, more forces are necessary than France and England can ever unito in that Quarter for such an aim. Ask a- Lout it, whichever staff officer has learn ed something about tactics and strategy And in that position is Sebastopol, thanks to your Austrian alliance, which, having interposed herself between you and your enemy in Wallachia, made the Czar free to send such numbers to Sebastopol as he likes. YoutuiU be beaten, remember my icordsJ Your braves will fall in vain under Rus sian bullets and the Crimean air, as the Russians fell under Turkish bullets and Danubian fever. rot one out of five of your braves, immolated in vain, shall see Albion or Gallia again. But I will tell you in what mnner Sebastopol is to be taken. It is at Warsaw that you can take Sebastopol." Cereal Wonders. At the Corn Exchange meeting in Philadelphia on Tuesday some samples of California wheat and oats were exhib ited which excited much wonder. The grains of wheat and oats were of remark-; able size, the former being at the rate of seventy pounds to the bushel, a thing un heard of here, where the very best sam ples of wheat do not go higher than the rate of sixty-three or sixty four pounds to the bushel. The head of wheat was also of great size. With such fertility as the soil of California must possess to yield such products as these, it is no wonder that we already hear of the a bundance of the last wheat crop, and of its being sufficient to supply that region. Some fine samples of cotton grown in California were also exhibited a fact which shows that the State ts adapted to almost any of the crops now cultivated in other sections of the Union. HARRIES).
