Crops.
The following inlormation re
garding crops, we gather from our
Exchanges :
GEORGIA.
A negro man in Thomas county
trots up with an open boll of cots
ton.
They call them cottonpillars in
Pulaski county, and they are doing
considerable damage.
More than an averege crop of
corn has been made in Thomas
count), and e tton is promising.
The oat crop, in Newton county,
this year, is pronounced the finest
since the war. The other crops are
not so g >od.
A correspondent at Statenvile
says that the corn crop in Echols
county is about made. Cotton is
promising.
An insect that bores into the cot
ton forms has made its appearance in
Franklin County. It is doing much
damage to that sensitive crop.
The cotton catterpillar has made
it- appearance ou the Stegall p’ant
ation Lowndes county, and the Val
dosta Times calls for dead-shot.
The crops in certain localities of
Gr-ene and Morgan counties had
been suffering for rain for several
weeks, until Saturday evening lust,
when bountiful slmweis, especially
in Morgan re ive I fat me s; and
we hope will benefit the cr ps. Corn
and garden vegetation had been suf
fering severely.
The crops in Thomas county, up
to this time are very good, and,
with favorable seasons from now on,
hid fair to make large returns to the
tillers of the soil for their trouble.
They have K en rt markably hard to
cultivate owing to the wet and
cloudy weather. The corn crop is
not so good as the cotton crop.
The Dawson Journal gives the
following :
Bain in great quantities has fall
en during the past week, and we
believe that it has been general
throughout the greater portion of
Southwest Georgia. We have, seen
parties from Blakely, fifty miles dis
tant, who report a plenty ol rain
In some se> tions considerable #ind
lias accompanied the rain clouds,
and a great ifi al of corn has been
blown down, especially on fre.-h,
light lands A majority of the far
mers are hopeful ol good crops.
FLORIDA.
The cotton catterpillar has ap
peared in the cotton fields of Leon
county in large numbers.
Cotton is o]v n in the neighbor
hood of Clear Witter Harbor, and
picking will commence in a few
days.
A merchant, who has recently re
turned from atrip along the line of
the J. P. and M. Ba ir aid, report
that the crop prospects in that part
of Florida are very line, both as to
cotton ami corn.
A correspondent writing from
Starke says the crops in that s ction
have been seri"ii.-ly injured by the
heavy rains. lie e-tim ites that in
that immediate vicinity not more
than half a crop of cotton will be
made.
The corn crop in Jefferson coun’y
is unusually good. Planters at Au
di la are selling corn ut the crib for
75 cents per bush 1. and delivering
it at Montic 110 at from S5 to 95
cents.
Tho crops on the Chattahoochee
river are sai! to he growing vigor
oiidy, and promise a fine yield. The
fanners have several tunes been
threaten' and with fieshets, and some
of the low-lands have been actually
overflown, but only slight damage
res deed and the general prospect is
now splendid.
ALABAMA.
The Eufaula Times says: We
learn fi om an intelligent farmer, and
one who knows a caterpillar when
he sees it, that the co ton aftove here
is literally full of the regular genuine
■‘worm,” and that the way they are
increasing is a caution.
The Montgomery State Journal
says: We heard of a planter in this
vicinity who had planted a crop es
tima'od at 600 bales o' 7: ttou, who
n >\v offers the who'e for fifty bales.
Worms.
The Selma Times says : A plant
ing liiend again reques s ns to tt'ge
upon planters to des roy the cater
pillar ne-ts to he found in tie- trees
and bushes. He savs that he knows
what he is talking about, and that
thousands upon thousands of worms
can bed stroved in this way. It
won’t cost anything t > try it.
Planters around Montgomery are
considerably distress' and <n account
of the rainy and clou ly weather
prevailing there now. It is just the
time in which the worms and cater
pillars luxuriate.
One Day’s Fatalities in Bos
ton. — A man stabbed, a man killed
bv fadlng-from a window, a child
killed in being run over by a hack,
a woman killed bv suicide and a
man drowned. Yel they tell us
that Boston is a model of good gov
emrhe t, luw and order arid of secu
rity to life and limb.
A Question to be Settled.
The Richmond Dispatch says:
The condition of Vice-President
Henry Wilson is such that the pa
pers have b'en induced thereby to
turn to the consideration of an old
question, which may yet cause
trouble in the country, unless the
laws in regard to it are so altered
as to be in conformity with the Fed
eral Constitution.
It is not necessary to tell any one
that the Executive, the Legislative,
and the Judicial Departments of the
Government ought to be kept sepa
rate. Yet, in disregard ot the wise
injunction so to keep them, the law
as it stands makes the temporary
President of the Senate the Presi
dent of the United States when
there is no President or Vice-Presi
dent, or when these are boih ds
abled. The President of the Sen
ate holds his office in virtue ol be
ing a representative of a o rtam
State, and he is made President of
the United Slates because he is tem
porary President ol the Senate.
The moment, however, that he takes
the office of President of the United
S'ates he loses his office as well as
his seat in the Senate, and another
person is elect' and to each. He there
by loses the onlv title that he has
to the office of Piesident ol the
United States, and his successor in
the senatorial President’s chair be
comes enitled to that office. Either
he ilrs, or else a man may be both
President of the United S:at<s and
President ot the Senate. But no
Vice-Pres''dent even was ever allow
ed to preside over the Senate after
he hail succeeded to the Presidency-
However, it has not yet happ' tied
that this question has been a prac
tical one; The Vice-President has
always been ready arid able to fi 1
the office of President when a va
cancy has occurred. Andrew Jack
son came very near being turned
out. If he had been, Senat >r Wade,
of Ohio, would have h; c t entfile I
under the'laW to succeed him. And
vet, as the three departments are to
be kept sepnra e, he would immedi
ately have !o-t Ins office of Presi
dent of the Senate, and losing it
would have disqualified him for the
place. We, are strongly impressed
with the belief that Mr, Chase held
the law fixing the succession to th"
Presidency to be unconstitutional,
and that this foci had something to
do with his refusal to vote Mr. John
son out of office.. There were sev
eral very long and able nrdeles
published in the National Intelligen
cer at the time in which the uncon
stiiutionality of the law was set
forth in clear and convincing lan
guage j and it was said that these
articles were written by a warm and
intimate Iriend of Mr. Chase's.
However this may he, a moment's
reflection ought to satisfy anybody
that the law ought to be changed.
The Pi •■sident ought never to hold
his oxer utive office in virtue of being
a senator or representative. The
law might provide for the election
of a Piesident by the House of
Rrpreseniatives as is done when no
candidate has a majority of the elec
toral votes, and as John Quincy
Adams was elected. Someone of
tin* heads of the Executive D-part
meats, or all of them in succession,
could he authorized to act as Presi
dent in virtue of his office (to which
he could and would of course hold
on, there b ing no rea on why he
should surrender it. as a senator is
obliged to surreudi r Ids place,) un
til C ingress could b ■ assembled, or,
iTin session, until the House o! Rep
resentatives could elect anew Pres
ident. Tips is only m e of many
wavs in which the difficulty now
existing might be removed.
Captain Jack as a Piisoner.
tNew York Times Letter ]
Confinement goes very hardly
with an Indian, and Capt. Jack has
suffered much since his itnprisu -
m- lit. He is thin in flesh and hag
gard in appearance. No doubt lie
was especially disc- infi ed at the re -
sult of his intervi< w with the ch el’s,
old Scouches and Alien David, a few
days before. He had b en proved a
bar there uud<-r very mortifying cir
cumstances, and may have fi It that
his case was weakened thereby.
When he came into this last strong
Modoc hold, w hen the Modoc tuition
were like sheep, and kept under vig
ilant guard, it is not unlikely that
ilie si*nation was presented to Ins
mind in a very vivid fight. He had
been a chi f: had magnified his of
fice, and had fi led it w tli all possi
ble dignity He hid dictated terms
to the whites as long as tie y m ose
to parley with him, and, when they
came in force, lie had waged war
with such success as the world lnd
never before known.
1 imagine that t e past swept
through his mind. He remembered
that the treachery of pa t ol his peo
ple had betrayed h in to death, and
that his clierishe I dream of r< tabling
his birthplace aud the home of his
fiitln rs on Lost river was ettded for
ever. Here were Lis people cap
tive, and fie in chains, and they wore
objects of sympathy for the hated
wlj te man. No doubt, too, the
kind words, ami sympathetic looks,
and tbnes of the Boston women were
something beiond bis ideas, and lie
sat for a wb le following the move- :
meats of General Davis with an ea
ger, pleading look that had in it
something that was untranslatable;
that may have been half wonder
ment, that they who were to judge
and condemn him should show such
sympathy and kindness, and there
must have been a questi ning of the
justice of that mystery ’of Provi
dence that made him an Indian,
wild and untutored, and gave" such
gifts, such wealth and such wonder
ful power to the white man. The
fountains of his soul opened at these
impressions and rememheranecs,
and tears coursed down the cheek
of the Modoc chief who will live in
history as the General of tiie lava
beds. His two wives wept bitterly ;
old men, women, and children joined
in the wail. Jack’s sister, Maiy,
sobbed and cried with loud-voiced
griet, and the lady visitors lent their
tears at the sorrows of womanhood:
so true it is that ‘ touch of nature
makes the world akin.” The Gen
eral hitnself has a sympathetic na
ture, and though quicit and impa
tient as a so dier, does not lack ap
preciation of tfie fme-t feeling of our
nature. I tell the story as he told it
to me.

incline to the opinion that these

affirmative. If so, Sp in has arrived
in re dity tit a gnu and point of a pub

perhaps, commence to inquire if

Discussing tho Freedmen’s Bureau

“Tile pecuniary vena ily of ihe

Fire in Baltimore.—A fire
broke out in Baltimore on Friday
last which consumed, according to
d'spatches by telegraph, eight
blocks of fine buildings, including
churches, factories, schools and dwel
ling houses. The fire was confined
to the district in the boundary of
Lexington, Howad, Mulberry and
Liberty s reets. We have as yet re
ceived no estimate of ihe losses.
Since the above was in type, we
gain the following information re
garding the estimated loss :
Baltimore, July 26.—The Sun
this morning estimates the loss by
the fire yesterday at $500,000, and
remarks that good judges estimated
the damage as low as between
$300,000 and $400,000. The Ga
zette estimates tin-lossai from $500,-
000 to $500,000, and the American
says the loss will closely approxi
mate $1,000,000.
Advance i\ Rail Freights.—
The St. Louis Den o.rat of the 17th
says that ‘'rail r ites eastward have
been advanced 10 cents ptr 100 lbs.
over the rate which lias been in
vogue since May. Thus, fourth
class goods are now charged 60
c nts per 100 lbs. to New York in
stead of sl. The rate to Boston,
Philadelphia, Baltimore, &c., is cor
respondingly increased. It is stated
by some of the agents that this ad
vantage has been its- and by the oper
ation of the Illinois freight law ; that
under the p.ovisicr sot this law the
roads lose so heavily on their way
business that they must make it up
