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 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.

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. COLUMBUS, GA., TUESDAY, AUGUST 17, 1875. NF.W YORK. HEAVY RAINS.

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. . ♦ * iMimtiiits \\s> ratxt tis. THE HERMAN MONUMENT.

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.

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, 1 am, respectfully, etc., W. J. Wilson. Atlanta, Ga., June 3, 1875 Das.
