THE DAILY TIMES.
AKrlculturul MtnMallra.
Wo glean from tlxojaly report of
tho Washington Bureau of Agricul
ture the following facts and tlgures:
The following Suites have increas
ed their acreage, viz: Maryland, t
per cent.; Virginia, 30 per coat.;
North Carolina, 33 per cent.; South
Carolina, 7 per cent.; Florida, 33 per
cent.; Mississippi, 10 per cent.; Ar
kansas, It) per cent.; Tennessee, 303
per cent.; West Virginia, 31 percent.;
Kentucky, 333 percent.; Ohio. 35per
cent.; Indiana, 19 per cent.; Illinois,
50 percent.; Missouri, 00 per cent.;
New York. Pennsylvania, and Texas
report tho same eroa as last year.
The following States have rod need
. their acreage, viz: Now Hampshire,
St)per cent.; Massachusetts, 35 |<or
cent.; Connecticut,2percent.; Geor
gia, 5 per cent.; Alabama, 10 per
cent.; Louisiana, 7 per cent.; W is
eonsin, 17 percent.; Kansas, 11 per
cent. The acreage of 1375 in about
twice nail three-quartern of that of the
preceedlng year.
The ivnthliun of the cropofllte whole
country is at leant 30 per rent, above
average, being the most satisfactory in
the largest tabaeco Staten.
WHEAT.
The average condition of wheat, of
both kipds for the entire country is
S3. The average condition of winter
wheat for the ~States in which it pre
dominates, inidudlng California, is 74.
of spring-wheat, oil. Tito South At
lantic and Gulf States, which have
been comparatively free from insect
posts, and have suffered loss than
usual from rust, report a high condi
tion. North Carolina, 102; Georgia.
108; Alabama, 10ti; Mississippi, 113;
Texas, 133; Arkansas, lit). Tennes
see ami Oregon, each 102, are the only
other States which report winter
wheat above average. In the North
Atlantic and Middle States, the lig
uros are low. Virginia, S3 ; Maryland,
70; Pennsylvania, 73; New Jersey, 03;
and New York, 15 lowest, of all.
Between the Vlleglmnies and Missis
sippi, West Virginia averages nt;
Kentucky,S3; 0hi0,71; Michigan,79;
Indiana, OS); Illinois, 70. Missouri
returns 73; Kansas, 91; lowa, 95. In
California, though t lie re is no obvi
ous line,of distiuetion, a part Is class
Cel ns winter and a part us spring
wheat; the former averages 7(1 unfl
tiie latter 55.
Among the States producing spring
wheat to any considerable extent,
Maine returns n condition of lhl;
New Hampshire, Wisconsin mid lowa,
99; Vermont, 190; New York, 91;
Pennsylvania, S3; Illinois, 95; Min
nesota, 103; Kansas, H 5; Nebraska,
71; Oregon, ltlii. The principal causes
which affected the condition over
large areas, iu the winter and spring,
were reported in June. Local cuuses
modifying it since will be sufficiently
noted in the extracts from corres
pondents which follow.
Of corn tho Commissioner says;
‘ Our returns show an increase in
acreage planted of H per cent, over
lust year. The condition of the crop
is about 90 per cent, of our average.
Of cotton no statistics in acreage
are given, but he sums up tho contli
i'lnn as approximating a full average.
In treating of the share system, the
Commissioner makes l his remarkable
admission:
Ju Alabama, some counties discour
age ‘the shore system, and seek to
bring agricult ur.% as far an possible,
to the wages standard, but this is not
vet found practicable. Tho tennnt
treedmnn is favored with a larger
share of the proceeds and a more
lenient treatment than the tenant
farmers of the N'lrth. Yet lie often
falls in debt lo his landlord and aban
dons ills contract.
This statement, coming in an offi
cial way from an important Depart
ment at Washington, ought certainly
to have some weight with the labor
ing ami rural classes of the North.
1 Kramliil.
A correspondent of the Norfolk
Landmark writes the following scan
dal from Washington :
One of our last scandals, if not the
latest has just commenced to lie whis
pered around in private circles, good
food for the gossips to gloat over dur
ing the “dull season.” An official
occupying a position in one of the
departments fell in love with a high
toned lady, proposed and was accept
ed. Nothing remarkable in that.
Everything went on happily until
the appointment to oflico of a beau
tiful lady, and being assigned a desk
in the official’s room, who had every
thing in her favor to captivate him,
which she seems to have done with a
perfectly reckless hand. During of
fice hours they exchanged glances,
smiles, und seemed to affiliate from
the start. The official stopped Ids
visits to ills intended, and soon t lie
rumor was spread around that lie was
engaged to ids pretty olerkess. He
paid her all the attention und court
that an enamored lover could. He
gave her a handsome diamond ring,
and a magnificent locket that excited
the envy of many a damsel. His sis
ter dying, his mother presented her
witli several roils of silk for dresses
that had been bought for the sister,
hut owing to her sickness and demise
had never been made up. The fall
was to unite two loving hearts, as he
thought. When tiie summer months
came she thought that some recuper
ation would he beneficial to her
health. Ho lie promised that after
his office honrs were over he would |
attend to her duties, thereby saving
her pay for her. Under tiiis agree
ment she received two months' leave
with pay. The iirst month passed
and at its end he forwarded her pay
to her address, which she re- i
ceived arid thanked him for, very
kindly. All during this time,
letters were passing to and fro,
but now they aid not come with the
regularity of yore. Seven weeks
having flown into tiie dark past, lie
received a letter, instead of being tiie
usual dear , it was simply Mr.
■ , stating that ho could retain her
second mother’s pay for his trouble,
the ring and locket she would retain
as BtMuvmir of former days, tire silks
she would wear as a gift of ids moth
er’s, and in conclusion that she would
never see him again, she having been
engaged to a wealthy Californian,
only came to Washington to get a
bridal outfit and have a little flirting,
that her little love scenes with him
were in jest, and thanking him very
much for his work for her at tiie
office. He is past consolation, and
his former intended had to bo taken
nwav, being attacked with Grain
fever. She, the cause of it all, is on
tier way to tiie Orescent City to marry
this rich merchant, who, during, the
. late war, lost, an arm and aw eye,
which is to be grieved at, for it will
require a man with argffs eyes to
watch this woman. He deserved all
he received.

MONEY !MKAI* IN LUXIHIX.
TORPOR IN TRADE.
London, August 16. —Money is so
exceedingly cheap that t he banks and
discount houses refuse to look at any
but the very best paper, because it is
not worthwhile to take any risk. For
tho struggling trader the present tor
por is therefore worse than dearer
money might be. With a rate to
tempt business, lie might get sotno
accommodation, but now lie gets
none. Tho simple result, of this must
be that many houses of small means
will succumb. This cheap money is,
therefore, about tho most severe puri
fieß of the market that could bo con
ceived of at tiie present time.

iflmv Old I'restiin Wan a Ret.
A Michigan paper tells tho follow
ing good story: A Front street sa
loon keeper is a great historical schol
ar, and will argue for hours on issues,

Old man Preston was aware of this,
and ho dropped into the place
one warm ilivy lust week and said:
“By cracky, Jim, but this is warm! I
havn’t been so warm since old Gene
ral Cass was President of tho United
States.” “What!” said Jim, “Gene
ral Cass never was President of the
United Statds.” “Why, yes howas,”
replied Preston, with well-feigned
astonishment. “I'll bet you the
drinks for tho hquse lie wasan’t,”
said the excited proprietor. “Done,”
answered the old man, and lie
drew forth his pocket-book, unfold
ed a page of the Congressional Globe
of 1848-9 and proceeded to read that
President Taylor having died on
Saturday, and Vice-President Fill
more not being at. Washington, the
President of the Senate, General
Cass, became President of the United
States until the following Monday,
pending Fillmore’s inauguration.
When the old man finished reading,
he looked around and said: “Come
up, boys. A litto Stoughton in mine,
Jim. Must excuse ignorance, you
know.” Then ho rambled out, while
Jim rammed the bottles back on the
shelf, soused tho tumblers in the
rinse, and as he wiped up the coun
ter remarked, “I have seen a good
many mean men in my time, but for
a lirst-class star beat, old Preston

APPLETONS’
American Cyclopaedia.
New Revised Edition.
Euttrely rewritten by tho abloat writers on every
subject. Prlutod from new typo, and Illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings
aud Maps.
The work originally published under the title
of Tiih New American Cycloiledia was com
pleted In 18(53, since which time the wldo circula
tion which it bus attained In nil partß of the
United statoß. and the signal developments which
have takeu place in every branch of science, lit
oraturo and art. have induced the editors aud
publishers to Hiihmit it to an exact and thorough
revision, and to Issue anew edition entitled Tun
American Oyolopacdia.
Within tho lust ten years the progress of dis
covery iu every department or knowledge Ims
made anew work of reference an Imperative
wnut.
The movement of political nilhlrH has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, und their lruitiu
application to tho industrial and useful arts aud
the conveuieneo and refinement of social lifo.
Great wars aud consequent revolutions have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiat
moment. The civil war of our owu country,
which was ut its height when the last volume ol
tho old work appeared, has happily been ended,
and ii now course of commercial and Industrial
activity has been commenced.
Large accessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the ludcfatigablo ex
plorers of Africa.
The grout political revolutions of the lust de
cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time,
have brought into public view* a multitude ol new
men, whose names aro iu every one’s irtouth, and
of whose lives every one is curious to know tho
particulars. Ur!at buttles have been fought and
iiuportuut sieges maintained, ol which tho de
tails am us yet preserved only iu the newspapers
or in the transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition for tho press,
it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down tho information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of
tho most recent discoveries in science, of every
fresh production in literature, aud of tho newest
inventions iu the practical arts, as well as to give
u succinct ami original record of the progress of
political and historical events.
The work hus been begun after long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources for carrying it ou to a successful term
ination.
None of the original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page hus been printed ou
new type, forming iu tact anew Cycloptedia, with
the same plan and compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
and with such improvements iu its composition
as have been suggested by longer experience and
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in the present edition have been added
not for tho sake of pictorial effect, but to give
greater lucidity and lorco to the explanations in
the text. They embrace ull branches of science
and of natural history, ami depict the most
famous aud remarkable features of scenery,
architecture aud art, as well us the various pro
cesses of mechanics and manufactures.
Although intended for instruction rather thau
embelishment, no paiiiH have been spared to in
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their
execution is enormous, and it is believed they
will find a welcomff reception as an admirable
feature of tho Cyclopaedia, and worthy of Its
high character.
This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
iu sixteen largo octavo volumes, cuch containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, aud with numerous
colored Lithographic Maps.

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from tho
cow’s udder and kept dry for years, then mois
tened, aud the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
iu it and drawn gently on thu arm, so as not to
draw the blood, will so impregnate and change
tho entire system as to prevent the party so vac
cinated from taking tho most loathsome of dis
(flies (small pox) for an entire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not tho
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known us malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
Impunity t
We claim that thcro is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, and applied it, ami proved
it iu our Anti-malarial or Euchymial Belt—and
that persous who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills aud Fever, Hillious or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, and tli a' it will cure all the above dis
eases. except the worst casea of Billious and Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Euchymial
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the uody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, and thus enabling it to pcr.orm Its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria iu
tho least.
It hus been tried In thousands of cases without
a failure.
They can be obtained from the proprietors In
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ua.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will eure or the money refunded.

is stamped upon them.

Messrs. Love A Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
last I was taiun sick with regular Fever and
Ague, having it every alternate day. After it had
run ou me for two weeks, I was induced to try
one of your Anti-malarial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, as
directed, and my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for some three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite und clear skin; and in future, if I should ever
have a Chill or Ague,l would want one of your Pads,
and no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
so unfortunate us to have Chilla and Fever may
be fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
