On Monday, by noon, thirty- eight wagons had parsed the same point fir the same destination. A friend, who has, for several years kppt the run of the berry trade, informs us that the huckleberry crop, this year, is fully equal in tulk, while the berries arc superior in size and quality, to that cf any preceding year for the last eight jcars. He thinks the crop, in pecuniary value to the county, will exceed 30,000. m&- - 0O"The Ninth Annual Fair of the Mon roe County Agricultural Society, commen ces, this year, on Tuesday, the 13th day of!

That the leaders North are fast losing their re pugnaaco to him, is evidenced by the fact that a "speciman brick" from one o the Georgia plantations, was carried to New York, during the session of the Deiu ccratic Convention, to enlighten even the shining lights cf the great Empire Club of that City.

OCT" We are under obligations to Com missioucr Caprort, of tho Department t-f Ag riculture at Washington, for a copy cf his report containing an account of the cciiJi tion pf the .crops 'for the month of JiJy. From all quarters reports have reached the Department, that never, betorc had such abundant crops been harvested. This wi! be gcod news to all who buy bread, and who for several years past, have been living at the mere of speculators. YV c 'make, the following extract from the report: . Wheat. The condition of wheat, a? shown in the July returns, is above the av eragc for last year" in all the States except emiont, Connecticut, the. Caro.mas Gcoi gia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Texas and Nebraska. The season his been pecul larly favorable to the growth and ripening of this graat bread crop la all except the boutherii btates. ;- The favorable reports aro so numerous, in the western States especially, that it is un necessary to give them in detail. The gen eral tenor of reports is that winter wheat bids fair to be the largest crop we have had for many years: the yield will be immense the prospect was never better for a large crop; the weather has been remarkably sea sonalle; the universal opinion is that the crop will be tha largest ever grown ia the couniry; crops all over the country were never in a more llourishir.g condition.- Our Lafayette, Wisconsin, correspondent siys lie has never seen, m a. resulcnco o; 40 years, fir.cr prospect for wheat, ns well as all other crops, and that the same mhrht be saij of several adjoining counties. In Highland ccumy, Ohio, the acreage of winter wheat is estimated at three times that cf last year, and in Monroe county, Missouri, the acre age of wheat is thought to be three-fold that ot 1SG7. In Kalamazoo county, Michigan, an unusual yield is reported, the best fields being estimated at -19 bushels per acre; oud ia Uourbon county, Kansas, it is claimed that many farmers will thow a similar yield. Willi a successful harvesting of the spring wheat it may -safely be declared, in sum ming up the local reports, that a larger num ber of bu.-hcls of wheat, by many thousands, will be grown in the United States in lSGj thau in any previous season. .

Circuit lately held in the High tit District of New York an action of eject ment wa3 tried "''by the Court without , - - - jury. J he suit was brought to recover possession of a cemetery. The: plaintiff was an incorporated religious society, and thc defendant, as it appeared, wa3 a prac ticing physician. On the part of the plaintiff it was claimed" that the defend ant, as one of a committee appointed by the church, had purchased the groumJ, for the use of the society, but afterward, falling out with the brethren, had taken the title in his own name, aud claimed to keep the premises himself; while the de fendant insisted that he had bought the cemetery iu his own right, and after his relations to the society had ceased. The Conrt, after hearing the proofs and argu ments, proceeded to state the grounds of his decision, and ordered judgment fur the plaintiff.! ' Whereupon . the defeud aut's counsel arose and asked the Court to state more fully the reasons for. the de cision. "Certainly," said his Honor ; "but as you have heard what I said, I have but two additional reasons to give : O.i'c ts.'tluit thn church seems to need a cemetery ; and the other, that the doctor ha fadrd to fhoic that his' practice is sufficiently la rye to require hir.i to Lerp luryhty-yroutid et his eicn !''

" The Knox (Illinois) liepablkvn ti:& the following : A farmer near Oneida, one day last week, while ou an unfrequented part cf his farm, near a ravine discovered, that an oak sapling had been cut and drarrcrcd to the ravine, which caused him to in- Xvcstig.-itc the matter, the result of which was, he found a trap door covered by tho sod, which opened into a room excavated ia the ground. This room was quite well fitted up with tables and chairs, contain ing stolen property of all kinds, and was evidently the rendezvous of thieves. His astonishment was such that he iu discrcetly' divulged the circumstance to the public, aud although a guard was .tatioued near . the cave, none of the thieves were captured, they having doubt-" less learned that the retreat was discov ered. Many of the articles found in the cave have been identified b- persons in the vicinty who have been losing such property unaccountably "for somo tinio past. A passenger by a night truing on the Hudson River railroad tells the follow ing: The train was dotaiued at Grccn bush for a little while, and waiting, a cat tle train came on the other track and' stopped.
