REPORT OF THE AGRICUL TURAL DEPARTMENT. AL Jules Verne is writing an American comedy. No man cun be a successful poet whose liver is not diseased.—Danbury News. Mr. Jefferson Da vis is still engaged at in tervals on his “History of the Confederate States,'* though suffering from defective eyesight. Prof. Win. Swintou’s “Outlines of General History,” on which he has spent much labor, will soon appear. The Spectator, in &u article on the mar riage question, candidly admits that “the first commandment for the poor is—‘Leave England.’ ” Bret Harte’s sketches have been translated into German under the title of “Californische Novellen.” The Paris Figaro thinks that “Eli Per kins” knows more about humor and uses less of it in his epistles, than any other American writer. James Godkin’s “Religions History of Ire land,” is pronounced a masterly aud pains taking performance, though open to the ob jection that it is favorable thronghout to the English role. The article in this month’s number of the Cornhill Magazine, on The Brontes, is from the pen of Mr. George Barnett Smith, the writer of the paper on Thackery, in a recent number of the Edinbnrgh Review. Mr. John Wise, before ho bids good-bye to America on liis adventurous transatlantic bal loon voyage, will issue a new edition of his work on ballooning, under the title of “Through the Air: A Narrative of Forty Years’ Experience as an Aeronaut.” The Saturday Review declares it will say a good word for any novel writer in good Eng lish which is free from villains and all ex travagant adventures, has “a low rate of mo rality, and is contained in one volume.” Such a novel it at last finds in Miss Brandon’s “dlip in the Fens,” which he pronounces a “carefully painted Dutch picture.’* Mr. Joseph P. Thompson, an American gentleman living in Berlin, has published a pamphlet on “Church and State in the United States of North America. In the preface he states that the pamphlet was originally writ ten “for the use ot an official of the impe- iial government whose name is not less hon orable in America than it is in Germany.” Prince Bismarck is probably meant by this. George Rontledgo has returned to England, taking with him a new volume of poems, mostly manuscript, by Mr. Longfellow. The title cf the book is the “Amaranth,” and it will be published about the same time in London and New York. Mr. Rontledge, it is said, paid a good price for it, as he did for a former work by the same author, “Three Books of Song,” the consideration for which was £1,000. Lord Strafford de Redcliffe’s new defence of Christianity, entitled “WhyAm la Christ ian?” is an inadequate little book of seventy- two pages, and, as the London Publish ers’ Circular remarks, “These reasons would be manifestly insufficient for some, and the very pleading, the apologetic tone and the limp manner of his lordship would cast ridi cule on the cause he adopts.” In the “Bath Archives,” just published in London, are several highly curious letters of Francis Jackson’s (British Minister to the United States sixty years ago), in which he gives an interesting picture of the newly- fledged republic. There are many details of the roughness of manners at the President’s honse, and in Washington generally; of the feminine bickering between Mrs Merry and Mrs. Madison, and also of the love affair be tween Mr. Oakley and Mme. Patterson-Bona- partc. “ Books,” wrote Oliver Goldsmith, who, having worked for “one Griffiths,*' and for the ingenious Mr. Newberry, of St. Paul’s church yard, knew well what he was writing about, “have their time as well as cucumbers. I woald no more bring out a new book in the snmoier than I would sell pork in the dog- days. Nothing in my way goes off in sum mer except very light goods indeed.” Times have not much altered. Jaly, August and September are still, perhaps, the dullest months in the year in the book market. The Saturday Review points out the con trasts between the public character and the private being of most authors thus: “The lively novelist is a t ritnrn, morose kind of person, ever ready to start topics of a grave and depressing nature. The poet whose songs are lull of that delicious melody that makes them so divinely sad is a rubicund, rosy-gilled gentleman, brisk, middle aged, comfortable, particular as to bis wines, and prone to pergonal gossip and feeble hamor. The lady novelist, who sails very near the wind, and on whom the critics are severe by principle, is as quiet as a Quakeress in her conversation, and ao demure as a nun in her bearing. The soar female essayist, who finds everything wrong and nothing in its place, has-a face like the fall moon And looks as if she fed on cream and butter.’ It is conjectured that the lady who sat for the last etching, was Misss Francis Power Gobbe. Lord Stanhope’s proposition in the Hoose of Lords to confer an order of merit on men distinguished in literature ana science, is re ceived with general dislavor by the British press. The Standard says WASKuravow, August 15, 1878. The return* of (he Agricultural Department for the l*t of August indicate a general and somewhat marked improvement in the condition and promice of the cot ton crop since the l*t of July. The relative condition reported at the period is •• follows: North Carolina—July 1—number of counties report ing, AS; average condition, 91. August 1—number of counties reporting, 41; average condition, 95. South Carolina—July 1—Number of counties report ing. 16; average condition, 62. August 1—Number of counties reporting, 18; average condition, 87. Georgia—July 1—Number of counties reporting, 58; average condition, 94. August 1—Number counties re porting, 55; average condition, 95. Florida—July 1—Number of counties reporting, 10; average condition, 99. August 1—Number of counties reporting, 15; average condition, 103. Alabama—July 1—Number ot counties reporting, 36; average condition, 85. August 1—Number of counties reporting, 31; average condition, 91. Mississippi, July 1—Number of counties reporting 31; average condition 83. August 1—Number of counties reported 39; averago condition 88. Louisiana, July 1—Number of counties reporting 19; average condition 89. August 1—Nunber of conn- tiee reporting 19; average condition 86. Texas, July 1—Number of counties reporting61: average condition 78. August 1—Number of counties reporting 46; average condition 83 . Arkansas, July 1—Number of counties reporting 39; average condition 98. August 1—Number of counties reporting 35; average condition 24. Tennessee, July 1—Number of counties reporting 24; average condition 96. August 1—Number of coun ties reporting 29; average condition 94. The average condition for all the counties reporting in these States was, July 1st, 85-5; and for August, 91-8. These figures, without doubt, are corroborated by the explanatory notes of correspondents, which, with a few exceptions, are much more hopeful in this tone than they were a month provions. The chief drawback is a wide-spread apprehension of the insect ravages. In North Cardins lice are reported in four counties. In Cowan the old farmers say they never saw ootton lice so numerous before. In Camden the cotton license in many instances has almost revived the crop. In Berguine the cotton is almost covered with lice; the caterpillars are reported as having appeared in greater less numbers. In nine counties in Florida aud five counties in Georgia, ilao in Jsckson couuty there is a new enemy to cotton, a borer, which bores into the form and causes it to drop. The caterpiller worm, army worm, boll worm or web worm is reported in 15 counties in Aiabama, In 9 in Mississippi, in 12 in Louisiana and in 16 in Texas. Paris Green and other destructive agents are being experimented witb, and in some instances it is claimed very successfully. These pests at the date of reporting had done vastly more at threatening than at execution, the cases be ing few in which they bad yet inflicted serions injury. Whether they will or not depend upon the conditions of the weather and other exigencies, which no re. porter can now foretell the crop on the whole, is still somewhat backward, though in many localities xspid growth in July has brought it forward to an averago advancement for the season. VIRGINIA. A Wife Murderer Hanged. ALXXAJfDKIA, August 15, 1873. William Jackson, convicted of the murder of bis wife in February last, after having been t vice respited, to-day suffered the extreme penalty of law In the jail yard. Notwithstanding the rain there was s large crowd, and bouse windows in the neighborhood were filled with spectators. Jsckson made s speech fliteen or twenty minutes long denying his guilt but not of fering innocence, The fall of seven feet failed to break hie neck—be died of suffocation after several struggles. He wse attended on the scaffold by three colored ministers. Hie body bung twenty minutes before life wes extinct. BrCHMOHD, August 15, *1873 General James O. Kemper, the nominee of the Conservative party, in reply to the letter of Hon. Thomas 8. Bocock, President of the State Conven tion. informing him of his nomination, accepted the nomination, and fully endorsed the platform adopted, He seys that under conservative auspices Virginia is to-day happily free from the worst calamities which have befallen other States similarly situated but differently governed. With hopeful and courageous hearts we will go forward with the work of restoring our beloved Commonwealth by means of s st mpulous regard for the requirements of organic law; by maintaining the ascendancy of virtue and in telligence in the public servloe; by dispensing equal protection and benefits to all our people; by ignoring resentment anl passion, cultivating a just spirit of content, yielding s manly support to whatever meas ures shall best secure justice sad relief to Virginia and sivi nee tbs welfare and.plory of the'Bepublic; by in- creating and fostering care for the great interests of education, immigration and material developments; by vigorous practice of simplicity, economy sad honesty la the administration of every department of our government, we will, under the blessing of God, in augurate a new era of contentment, peace, prosperity and vigor to be felt in every interest and enterprise and by every citizen of Virginia. The reply of Colonel Withers accepting the nomination, is brief and pointed, while that of Mr. Daniel is vary elaborate, reviewing the question in volved in the canvass st great length. The Southern and Historical Association in session st Montgomery and White Sulphur Springs adopted resolutions mak ing Ridhmynd Heed quarters of the.aociety in future. General Jubal Early was elected President with one Vice President in each Southern State. MASSACHUSETTS. WASHINGTON. That Big Customs Fraud—It Tarns Oat to be a False Alarm. Washington, Angust 15, 1873. The Treasury Department, recently, in the re-exam- inatlon of various documents, discovered one or two cases of alleged Customs fraud, Mid to have been com mitted in 1867, and a few days ago sent Mr. Vander bilt. of the Department, to New Vork, for the purpose of examining into the case. The names of several custom house officers having been mentioned in that connection, the chief object of his visit to that city wu to ascertain whether they were implicated in fraud or improper transactions. Mr. Vanderbilt having returned to Waahington to-day, reported to the Secretary that there was nothing whatever to implicate these officers in any wrong doing. This was the only matter which occupied hla attention while m New Tork. Hia visit had no con nection whatever with the removal of anybody, nor bad any orders been previously issued for that pur pose, or for examining into the conduct of officers and employees connected witb any branch of the custom house. The investigation shows that the cause of the fire unknown. It raged midship, aud only one passen ger, a Mrs. Rese. was lost the foie part of the ship, aud she jumped everboard from fear. Nearly all aft lost. The bew was in shallow water. The evi dence indicate that every officer was at hia post. The Insurance News. Boston, August 15, 1873. It a reported that the undei writers will soon In. crease largely the rates of Insurance throughout the city, because of the hesitancy of the city authorities in increasing the efficiency of the fire-department. Four of the largest English insurance companies, it la understood, have received orders from some offices to suspend taking Boston risks for one month, in order to see what action will be taken in regard to strengthening the fire department. The weather continues thick with occasional rain. ILLINOIS. Cholera in Chicago. Chicago, August 15, 1873. The Times of this morning says: The fact is one that need not longer be concealed, that cholera pre vails in this city. There have been forty-two deaths from that disease. MAINE.

Notwithstanding the rain several hundred people gathered on the wharf, b7 whoa the President was heartily cheered. A salute waa fired by the Rucculloch as they left the wharf. At Bath, where the train made a brief stop on the way here, a large crowd assembled, to whom the Pres ident was introduced by Mayor Rice, and he bowed his thinks. THE TURF. Utica, August 15,1873.

To-day£is.the feast assumption. Markets closed and buaness suspended. GERMANY. Berlin, August 15, 1873. The North German Gazette stigmatizes as disgust ing the invention of the report in American papers of an interview with Prince Bismarck, in which the Prince is made to say that he would extirpate the idea of Gcd and substitute that of the Btate. It declares that Bismarck never used such language or advocated such sentiments, and believes that the falsehood orig inated in the machinations of the Jesuits. The Selma Times says: Much Las been said in reference to Colonel J. R. Powell, the Duke of Birmingham. His life has been an active one, and one full of honors and busi ness successes, but he has in the past three months crowned himself with an immor telle, that would honor any man on earth. A man of immense means, without a single tie to bind him to the magic city in her hour of desolation, save his official position as Major, he remained at his post of dnty dur ing the whole of the scourge that desolated the city, and ministered with bis own hands to the sick and the dying. His life has been fall of honors, but his action during the scourge has added to his already lustrous reputation. Long may he live to wear the Additional honor that he lias won, and to re ceive the love and respect of his people. London, August 15, 1873. Dispatches from various placet in Germany where cholera prevails, state that the disease it increasing in violence. London, August 15, 1873. M.

Tbe World's special from London, of the 4th, stated upon the highest authority, that Count Chambord has announced his resolution to accept the constitution for France, prepared by members of the Right of As sembly and himself, and will rule both by the will of God and good will of the people.

Tbe State can confer no distinction on those who are worthy of honor in this order, anil it ought not to distinguish those who are not worthy. The idea of Btate patronage to lit eratare is altogether foreign to the aga and alien to the feelings of its professors. The only patron which they reooguize is the pub lic, and the only reward they covet is that rhiob it is impossible for kings and minis ters to bestow. The Daily News remarks: “There is no reason in the world why ber majesty’s ministers should be good judges of poems, stataee and scientific propositions.” The Times says: “Bach distinctions as those proposed ure not a sufficient teat of merit in any ealling. Here we find ourselves at once in tlu midst of a multitude of conflicting ambitions. Who is to judge between tbe poet and the engineer, between the popular preacher and the patentee of a new dye?” FRANCE. Telegraphic Notes. MOTLEY. Interesting Particulars of the Great Histo rian’s Illness. New York, August 15. 1873. A London letter dated July 31, rays Mr. Motley'* friends have for some time known that hia health was delicate, and will not be surprised to learn that he ia confined to hit hotel by a somewhat serious attack.

When the stomach rebels against food aud obstinately refuses to digest sufficient aliment to keep the body well nourished, it can only be compelled to resume its natural duties by a wholesome tonic. The powerful alkaloidCs so often admir stored for this purpose, are not wholesome.
