Many of the c irnflelds lying along the

a heavy yield. The ears are largo and very
uniform In their size and lullness. While this
is true of localities in this region, there are,
some distance to the west of us, districts where
the crop is a poor nno. This variety of the

of the north and west. The Chicago Tribune
says such la the case in the Slate of Illinois.
Upon Iho average, the crop in that State is
thought to be below a medium one.

The Musical Convention of this county,
hich met at Orwell, seems to have been a
Kralifying success, both In ' numbers and the
character of its performances. Other counties
contributed to swill the numbers, which were
about 125. The Convention was presided over
by S. F, Hlglev. Esq., and as announced, Prof.
Emerson of Boston -wielded tho baton, and
'showed himself master of the situation. The
inniat was Miss Parker. Among those who
rew upon the admiration of the convention,

Gear. Two concerts were given one a free

making wine. Ou being told that be bad none
to give them, they seised and threw him upon
the floor and covered his mouth to prevent
alarm. While in this position, Mr. W. was
held by one of the rufflaus, while the other,
with revolver in band, went to the bed-room,
where Mrs. Walton was in lied. She was
threatened with instant death, if she made any
noise or refused to disclose where Ihe money
was. She had, however, made considerable
noise, aud the dog at the door, had also sound
ed the alarm. To the demand for money, she
S lid there was none In the house that it was
in Ihe bank. ' Beginning ' to realize that the
prospect for booty was doubtful, and the
ularm bad been fully given, the ruffians made
their retreat, with no one to follow them and
leaving no means by which their Identity
could be detected. It is not known that there
is any one in that puacefu) community that Is
capable of such conduct, and bow entire slrau-
gers should know that Mr. Walton sometimes
handles considerable amounts of money, and
was, also, in the habit of wine mnkihg, cannot
be easily reconciled. Al! the money that Mr.
Walton had lu the house, we learn, was about

Creek, Haiisgrove, Windsor, Vo., Ashtabula

Oeauirs Co., and GarrettsvlUe and Freedom
Portage Co., was very pleasant from the ab
sence of dust, snd gn'-rl frmlines snd In
creased beauty of landscape by late rains. In
the wbolo distanoa we only saw two or three
fields of oats, not yet A-Onr-id, while plough
ing for wheat, hauling manure, Ac, seemed to
be ibe main business of the fanners. There is
s pronrness in murmur on the part of us poor
mortals at all tinv-s, snd thus Hie least provo
cation suck- ss tbe visits of grasvlioppers and
potato bus aud a Utile too much rain or sun
shine, will open out t lie same old t- r-olpyed
story of "ruin and disater." We may allow
much of discouragement Dili snd most other
seasons, yet bur plan is lo dif count 50 per cvnt.
on an average, from averred fxl. .
Tho crop of hay Is short, but soWed corn,
and a general buibaiidittg of" resources,
ooupUd with the plenty of feed In paatures,
and prospective continuance, all go lo favor
an eaty passage through its ordinary winter.
Spring will doubtless show s plenty of hy In
market sgain. ' ' t
j. Corn sod potatoes a 111 turn out an average
crop; but then, the great staple of this coun
try Is cheese which coramsnds a price wblch
ensures largo returns. Tho plan of cheese
makers is fast obtaining, to buy the milk, and
with improved facilities -in m iking baiter,
thus secure larger returns to pit concerned.
Our short sojourn at R vk Creek od Hie
28th, only Improsod us the more with the tie-
iuf that the citizens irener.tlly Were public-
piriled, and would, willi n itiral advantages
improved, eventually till, with others, the list
of "proHpcrous railroad towns." Thupnpuli-
llon that day was somewhat depleted by tha
great miss of her citizen having (fine to Ah-
Uftula harbor on a picnic excursion.
We could but see from the many, residences
and other buildings lu the courseof construe
tint at Girrettsville, th it prosperity was at
tending the busiuess of her citiz jnaV. The resi-
nces especially showed an abundance of
means in their construction, as permanence.
fiuo architecture, good taste and Comfort are
evidently fully secured. This pUce, with its
advantages of water power the Cuyiliogt
river passing through the town, aud thu Mt-
boning or A. ft G. W. railroad, wilt secure
permunent properity to this noar important
town. .

"VoungsUiwn & Ravenna R. K ," is projected.
Of late years, there has bjeii au increasing in

character ot the plaue. We m ist apeak of Ihe
High Schools affording a conspicuous and
ornamental - building of brick, in which the
hundred of students are graded in their studies,
and with the civilized and iu every respect anti-heathen
character of the citizens, nothing
but a proud success is likely lo crown their ef
forts. . "'.
