City Paper UKfiKST CITY Cl KOWiATUffI SUM DAT MORNING July lit MW THE CROPS. From the New York Tribune ] THE SOUTH AND WKST. Mary!a id. The Cecil Democrat ears: Notwithstanding the backward season, corn and oats are proving rip orously, and wheat is uniformly pood, though there is some rust blight. As to the peach crop, it will bo large. Sellers are many and buyers few. Last year peaches sold at $2 a basket on the wharf; this year 59 cents is the highest offered. In Anne, Arundel’couitty, the farmers express the greatest sutisfac tion. Virginia. —Our special correspondent, writing from Richmond, states that the general crop of wheat is good, though there is some rust. Rain storms retard, ed harvest work to senne extent. The Rockingham Register says wheat and rye yield largely. Around Dauvitle all crops are promising except corn ; the rain has been too frequent, and grass has got a start. Near Richmond a steam threshing machine is in opera tion. North Carolina. —The heavy and long rains have injured wheat in shock, in many places, and the quality can be but second. Coru fields have been flooded on low lands ; still, generally, corn and other crops are good, and as a large variety was planted the sup ply through the whole State will be ample. South Carolina. —The prospect for Cotton at present is scarcely an average; chilly weather and'much rain, as well ns lice, are unfavorable, still there are sections where it is very good. Corn is promising, and wheat is better than for many years. One piece of manured ground in Chester yielded 110£ bushels to the acre. Owing to the great amount of rain the prospect for rice is gloomy. Georgia. —ln Wilkes county the wheat is said to be the finest they have had for years. We may remark that by all ac counts this State is more highly favored than any other in the South, and it is conceded that they are hurrying the new wheat cr >p to market before the price declines. Alabama. —The Huntsville Indepen dent says: The Colton, though small, is coming forward finely : wheat yields well ; other grain is equally to the aver age at this time of the year; and vege tables, particularly Irish potatoes, are plentiful. Louisiana. —The Monroe Telegraph reports from an area of 70 miles, that without exception the accounts are favorable. One man among others has 700 acres of corn, as good as ever was seen. Things look like living once more. The South Western says many fields of are in the grass and weeds, but the people are in fine spirit over the corn prospect. Around Con cordia there has been too much rain, but there may be a middling crop of Cotton. Some locusts have appeared. On the overflowed lands much planting was done and prospects arc encouraging. Near Raton Rouge. Cotton, corn, and all crops look well. Sugar cane is hardly worth speaking of.. A letter from the Red River county says : ‘"The crops arc looking well, and though some talk of worms, there are none. We have splendid coru and shall make 5.000 barrels.” Texas. A letter from Anderson, Grimes county, says : “At the time the crops should have been worked, the earth was deluded with rain, and pros pects are gloomy. Near Matagorda the Cotton worm has made its appearance, hut it is confined to the three coast counties of Brogoria, Wharton, and Grimes. From MeLellan county toward the Indian Nation, and through a laige extent the crops never were better, ad : in the Brazos everything is promising.” Mississippi. —ln the overflowed dis tricts the worm is (doing some damage while replanting was done; on the uplands, the wheat crop is magnificent; hut Cotton is not as good, nor even was it planted as extensively as in former j years. The suffering iu the north part ‘ of the State among poor people is relieved to some extent by the new wheat, and the maturing of vegetables, particularly beans and round potatoes. Tennessee. —The Jackson Whig says: “ Throughout the country the hearts of farmers are made glad by a prospect of most bountiful crops. In some sections corn is so scarce that farmers had to cut wheat before it was ripe, to feed their teams.” In East and Middle Tennessee, says the Nashville Banner, there will be a plenty of fruit; and corn and Cotton are luxurious. Kentucky. —The Russellville Herald says the new wheat is in market and selling from $1.50 to $2 a bushel, flour at $5 a hundred. Near Maysville the wheat has been cut, and it is better in quality and quantity than for many years. From Fleming, Bath, Mont gomery, Bourbon, and Nicholas counties there is the same good report. lowa. —The Be Witt (Clinton County) Observer says that during the present month vegetation has been growing with astonishing rapidity, and the pro mise for grain and fruit is decidedly favorable. The Cedar Falls Gazette says wheat never looked more promising, and corn is coming on very fast. Wisconsin .—The Chichago J’epub licun has cheering accounts from this Stale. Avery large crop of wheat and oats may be expected, and though corn has had much to contend with, it is now well advanced. In many places the potato hug has nearly destroyed the crop. Hay will be nr more quantities. Minnesota. —ln some sections the Prospect is not as favorable as farmers would wish. Still, Very large quantifies of grain are growing, and the warm weather will change much. The potato *mg is here also. Illinois. —The Chicago Tribune, in a favorable review of the crops, says, that a vast volume of wealth is about to be added to the country. It not only rep resents gold—it is better than gold. Much will he done to relieve finance and trade. From Decatur to Hloom jogton and to Tnhrno late planted corn ls coming forward finely, but it needs work, and harvest time having arrived ■twill be difficult to give the work. Other crops look remarkably well. No potato bugs. There are many youug orchards, but they are neglected by ” e ‘ u g in fields of small grain. The THE DAILY PRESS. VOL. 111. apple crop is poorer as one goes north. In Adatus county, the Quincy Whig says, winter wheat has not looked so well for many years. Indiana. Randolph county, only about two thirds of the usual wheat sown —qunlity excellent; flax fine and largely sown ; oats poor, grass an ever age, and fruit abundant. Around Mun cie, wheat is threatened with the weevil. In Lake county, corn and wheat look finely ; fruit plentiful. The Evansville Journal speaks of the crops as being magnificent. Ohio. —The Chillicothe Advertiser says : “The splendid weather of the two past weeks has. rapidly matured the wheat and saved it trorn insects. In other sections the weevil has done damage to all varieties except the Mediterranean. All other grain is gloriously prothising. There is a grand report of wheat, corn, and oats from Marion county, Seiota Valley. 16 Galiu county the midge and weevil are at work on the wheat, still their damage is not great. O.ita are good with short straw. Corn is backward and foul with grass; heavy fruit are plentiful. The Ohio Farmer says that grape vines will be injured unless a part of the great quantity of fruit is removed. In the Tuscarawas Valley finer fields of wheat never were seen. Much corn had to be replanted. Ten million pounds is the estimate of the wool crop.” A Story about Forgiveness. Several years ago there lived in a town in Central Georgia, two men bear ing the names of J. aud F. These men, so far as known, were regarded as good brethren. They wercon termsofpeaco in the church. In process of time, however, J. went to his brether F. to buy some wheat. The wheat was purchased at so much a bushel, perhnps one dollar, and a part of the money was paid for it. After this, J. sent for the wheat, but strange to say, F. refused to let him have it. F., it is said, found after bargaining with J. that wheat had advanced in price, and he wanted the advance. Os course J. insisted on his right to what he bad contracted and partly paid for. E. refused positively to futill his agreement.— This was the ground- work, as might naturally have been expected, of a terrible difficulty between the two brethren. The one, feeling injured, gave public expression to his indig nation ; while the other, conscious perhaps of having done wrong, and yet posessed of an obstinate nature, angrily defended himself as best he might. Things went on this way for months, perhaps; at least, till the matter was talked of all over the country. Having borne with the brethren as long as possible, the church to which they belonged was on the eve of taking up the matter, when brother J., the injured party, began to come to himself. He had told F., at their last interview, that he would sue him. Now he began to think the matter all over. “Was it right,” he asked himself, “to injure the cause of Christ, to disgrace the church, to cast away brother F., who, up to that time, had always seemed a good man—to do all this for the pitiful amount of a few dollars, or a few bushels of wheat ?” J. went at night into a solitude to place the wholo subject before the Lord. While there the Lord helped him. He found the spirit of forgiveness there at the-'throne of grace- He brought it home with him. In the morning early, .1. mounted hie horse and started to see F., who saw him comii g and tried to get out of sight, by leaving his house by a back way J. saw this and called him. F. seemed not to hear? but as the call was still repeated, F. came at last to see what was wanted— with a very good grace, however. The two brethren face to face once raore,J. began his speech : “Brother F., 1 have come to tell you that we must settle our difficulty. We are injuring the cause of Christ ; we are destroying our peace as men and Christians ; we are about to involve the church in great trouble. We must, I repeat it, make an end of this matter. I told you, brother F., at our last interview, that I would sue you. I have done so. (F. looked sullen.) Last night I carried your case before the Lord, and got a verdict against you. You have done wrong, my brother : but hasten to me. 1 forgive you for the wrong—from my heart I forgive you. Keep the wheat, brother F., and the money, too; the whole of it is not worth making a fuss about. lam sorry that 1 ever allowed myself to be troubled about it at all. If I have done you any wrong, my brother, I am very Sorry for it, and I ask your forgivuness.” During this speech F. had wonderfully softened down in his feelings. Before it ended, his hands were over his eyes, and the great tears were chasing each other down his cheeks. When able to speak, be said: “Brother J., I have done wrong, I want you to forgive me. I will send you the wheat.” “No,” said J., “I don’t want the wheat. I forgive you all the debt.” “Yes,” said F, “but you must have it. I will send it to you this very evening-’ Need we say that brethren J. and F. parted as brethren should do? Need we say that they had no church trial— that brotherly love was restored between them ? Foa IIoiTsEK sure its.'—The following are a few valuable household hints, which are worth preserving: Have your suds for garden plants;' or for garden yards, when sandy. Wash your teatrays with cold suds, polish with a little Hour and rub with a dry cloth. Frozen potatoes make more starch than fresh ones; they also make nieb cake. , . A hot shovel held over varnished furniture will takeout the white spots. A bit of glue dissolved in skim milk and water will restore old crape. Ribbons of any kind should bo wash ed in cold soap suds, and not rinsed. If your llat-iroris are rough, rub them with fine salt, And it will maku them smooth. Oat straw Is the best for filling beds; it should be changed once a year. If you are buying carpet lb'r dura bility, ohoose small figures. A bit of soap rubbed on binges of doors will prevent their creaking. Scotch snuff put in holes where crickets come out will destroy them. A gallon of strong ley put in a bar rel of hard water will muku it as soft as rain water. AUGUSTA, GA., SUNDAT MORNING, JULY 21, 1867.

Telford, Missionary in China, now visiting his home in Penn.] Washington, Penn., June 25, 3866. Messrs. Perry Davis & Son, Providence, R. I.—Dear Sirs : —During a residence of some ten years as a missionary in Siam and China, I found your Vegetable Pain Killer a most valuable remedy for that fearful scourge, the Cholera. In administering the medicine I found it most, effectual to give a U aspoonful of Pain Killer in a gill of hot water sweetened with sugar ; then, after about fifteen minutos begin to give about a tablespoonful of tho same mixture every minute until relief was obtained. Apply hot applications to the extremities. Rathe the stomach with the Pain Killer, clear, and rub the limbs briskly. i» f those who had the Cholera, and took tho medicine faith full} 7 in the way stated above, eight out of ten recovered. Truly yours, R. TELFORD. If attacked with the Diarrhoea, Dysen tery, Crnmn Colic, don’t delay the use of the PAIN KILLER. Tungchow, China, August 20, 1866. Messrs. Perry Davis tic Sons.—Dear Firs :—During a long residence in China, I have used your invaluable Pain Killer, both in my own family and among tho Chinese, aud have found it a most excel lent medicine. In the summer of 1862 and ’63, while residing in Shanghai, 1 found it an almost certain cure for Cholera, if used in time. Indeed, using it in a great many instances, I do not remember failing in a single case. For three years I have been residing in this place, more than fiftj’ miles from a physician, and have been obliged often to fall upon my own iesourcesin cases of sickness. The Chinese come to us in great numbers for medicino and advice. Though without medical knowledge our selves, the few simple remedies we can command arc so much in advance even of their physicians, that wc have almost daily applications We allow them to come, because it brings us in contact with them, ami opens a door of usefulness. In diar rhoea, colic, vomiting, cholera, coughs, etc., your PAIN KILLER has been my chief medicine. * * * # Yours, very truly, T. P. CRAWFORD. Perry Davis’ Vegetable Pain Killer 1 have used tho medicine known as PERRY DAVIS' VEGETABLE PAIN KILLER in my family, for the last twelve months, and have great pleasure in testify ing in favor of its very valuable properties. I would rot on any account be without it.
