The Lawlei wheat, in appearance, resembles the Vir ginia white wheat, butin my opinion it will not produce as well from the straw.

It is entitled Ob jects of public interest with the peo ple of Missouri; the accomplishment of which tequires the aid of the national go vernment.” In other words, it is a species ol notice, to congress, that the state of Mis souri, when made, wiif provide ways and means for the disposition of a large pro- poi lion of the national revenue, ordinary and extraordinary, for half a century to come. The items are stated in the follow ing manner— •*1, The change of the territorial for the state form of government. 2.

Heat of the Weather.—Most of the pa pers we have received, represent the hea: us having been unusually severe during tha last week.

On being ex posed to the sun, one of the thermo meters, ou Sunday, rose immediately to 123. After showing the state of the thermo meter, the Salem Gazette thus remarks— ‘•So much heat has pel liaps never befope been noted in this country, in any pre ceding July, as in that which lias just past; and with it we have been t with the most grateful and vivifying showers of rain, so that we have had the constant full ness, freshness, and verdure of spring: ve getation is noiv most vigorous and rapid, and the eye cannot re.-t upon a -ingle bar run or unpleasant spot.

With regard to th character and objects of this document, tin ed'torof the 'Intelligencer remarks—’ may be ob-erved in general, that it is ’comprehensive, that there is probably one ot'.lie ctates in the Union, even largest, which would make larger deinai; on the attention aud funds of the genei government, were a carle blanche off, to it, on which to inscribe the objects, accomplishment of which was reasunal to be expected.” We are very much dined to the same opinion. The style and loftiness of manner^ which these claims are enforced, is the least curious and amusing part subject. Speaking of Ihe change form of government from that of a ten ry to a state, the writer says:. “It is desirable that a change should effected in the usual way, under the aui ces, and with the liberal assistance of general government; and it is hoped it will be so accomplished at the next sion of congress, as all persons must see that a perseverance in the course by the majority in the house of re f ives ot the last session, will have, effect than to drive the territory t ercise of her inherent right.” It will be recollected, that the forming this territory into a state, w in the lioYise of representatives the ' sion or congress, on the point of a the principle of slavery into the st stitntion.
