It is said that Ohio will yield 15 per cent less wheat this year than she produced last year. When we remember mat the great majority or unio iar mers are away from home In the service ot their country, it seems surprising that she yields any wheat at all. Boston TransciipL The Buzz! Case. Philadelphia Times. The governments of the United States and Spain are just now engaged in a wrangle over the question whether Pietro D. Buzzi must be treated as a citizen of this country, Buzzi has ob tained naturalization papers from a Baltimore court, but the Spanish au thorities claim that he obtained them fraudulently, uot having lived here the requisite time and never having had any intention to live here permanently. Buzzi's Cuban estates were confiscated in 1870, and he claims damages of the Spanish government to the amount of $500,000. Our own government con tends that the decision of the court granting the naturalization cannot be inquired into, out uount iewennaupt, the umpire for the American and Span ish claims commission, decides differ ently. A new argument is to be made in accordance with the protest of the State departmeat. .The umpire has made inquiry into the character of Buzzi'a residence, and has decided that he had not lived long enough in the United States to give him the privilege of citizenship at the time when the court granted him his naturalization papers. The truth is, so the United States asserts, that Count Lewenhaupt is basing his decision on a mistake as to what the Spanish government were done. In 1870 the Secretary instructed Minister Sickles that "naturalized citi zens of the United States will, if insis ted on by Spain, be required to show when and where they were natural ized, and it will be open to Spain to traverse this fact. A further mstruc tion, however, was given in 1872 to Minister Nelson at Mexico to this ef fect: f,A naturalization of a foreigner in the United States is the solemn act of a court of record. As such no for eign government can rightfully ques- tion its emciency or inquire into tne facts upon which it may have been based." The United States authorities will endeavor to show Count Lewen haupt that he has based his decision on a mistaken construction of the former attitude of the State Department. It is certainly important to know whether foreign governments can go behind the judgments of our own courts as to whether a citizen has been properly naturalized. Tlie Tennessee Debt. A dispatch from Memphis, (Tenn.) to the New York Herald, dated Mav 23. says : "The fiat issued by Judge Wil liams, of Winchester, Tenn., last Thurs day afternoon, restraining the btate officers from funding the bonds of the, State, as provided by the late Legisla ture in its passage of 'the 100 and 3 law,' was predicated upon the hiing or bond in the amounfe of $5,000. The signers to the petition are numerous and influential. All the papers in the case were mailed to Nashville to-night where the bond will be given either to morrow or Wednesday at latest, and the injunction served at once upon the funding board or the btate. The attor nevs inthe case are among the most eminent in the State, and are sanguine of their ability to prove the act which proposes to fund the debt unconstitu tional. The cause will he heard by Chancellor Merritt, of Nashville, before whom the bondholders will doubtless make a motion to dissolve the injunc tion. A press dispatch from Nashville vesterdav announces that "a writ has been served on the comptroller enjoin ing him, as a member ot theiunding board, from funding the State debt at 100 and a." r iMnls.

Philadelphia Times, Here is it irood chance for lads who would like to serve their country and at the same time sail "the bonnie blue sea. r Next September twenty-five cadet engineers or service in thevnavv wii be appointed, oy competitive examma tion, held at Annapolis, and any Ameri can boy between 15 and 20 years ot age has the right to contest lor one ot tne cadetshins.

Between 1492 and 184S the American hemisphere produced $5,234,546,000 of 8ilver-bulliop,or nearly double as much of that metal as all the world has pro duced from 184 to 1SS0 inclusive: as aree as may have been the production in the United States since lb65, while the silver of the hrst period, mainly contributed by Mexico and. -Peru, was in major part yielded between 1550 and 1810. The production of silver from 1492 to 1848, in the Americas, exceeded that of gold nearly as three to one, and in all the world, as nearly two to one. On the other hand, between 1848 and 1880, in clusive, the rate or production or the two metals ha3 beeen entirely reversed so that gold, in point of production in the world, for the htst period, bears the relation to silver of slightly above two to one. Bearing in mind this fact, as also that with even an annual produc- -tion of gold now reduced materially be low $10U,0i0,0c0. it is still materially greater in amount that of silver I a fact titlier ignored or unknown to the advocates of the single gold -standard what solid ground is there for a perm;inant fall in the price of silver? Assuredly none we answer, when we remember that no less than 900,000,000 souls employ an exclusively silver currency, and that the greatly increased population of Europe and America since 1848, with the greatly increased wealth and luxurious habits of the people of all countries, have led to a demand and consumption or silver in the industrial arts, for plate and oth er articles, which make the present an nual production of silver less adequate, in proportion of the present population and scope of uses in the world, than was the production of this metal at the opening of our century, when it bore tue proportion aireaoy stated to goia, in quantity, of nearly three to one. Railroad- Matters. Balelgli News-Obsertet, 24th. We noticed in yesterday's issue the arrival, of Mt V.. .-Best, the well known ' railroad maiht nd a number of prominent aniJwealthy capitalists. It was understood that tney came to this city to discuss vcertain tftatters relative to the North .Carolina Midland Rail road, arid also'Something concerning the Western North Carolina and At lantic and North Carolina B,ailroads. Yesterday morning Senator Z. B. Vance", one of the three commissioners of the Western North Carolina Rail road, appointed by the Legislature, ar rived in the city, and met Gov. Jarvis and Treasurer Worth, the two other commissioners. The meeting, or raih- er conference, was held at the execu tive office. Mr. Best and, the gentle men who accompanied him were pres ent, and, it is understood, made full statements to the matter relative to the Midland road and the others. The gentlemen who are with Mr. Best are said to be men of means, particularly one of them from Boston. The move ments and developments in the matter are awaited with much interest. A Bad Criminal Capture d. News and Observer. About three years ago Adam Lewis, colored, was sent to the Penitentiary from Granville for stealing.f or the term of two years. From the Penitentiary he was put to work on the Western North Carolina Railroad and escaped after serving about three months. Some time afterwards he was captured and placed on the Oxford and Hender son Railroad, from which he soon again made his escape. 3?or the past year he haa been prowling about the county in Sassafras Fork township, committing all manner of depredations, until he had become the terror of the neighbor hood. He was always heavily armed and was well known to he a desperate and daneerous negro. A few days since a large party determined to catch him and finally did arrest him. Un Tuesday he was surrendered to the Penitentiary authorities. He declared his intention to escape from the Peni tentrary. Times Change. Philadelphia Record. About fifty-six years ago Henry Clay voted for John Quincy Adams for Presi dent, and was afterward appointed by Mr. Adams Secretary of State. Forth with arose the cry of "bargain and cor ruption." The charge of a trade was denied, but it nevertheless stuck. They were both disgraced in the eyes of the country. But nobody now thinks of bringing a like accusation against Mr. Garfield and Mr. Blaine. Un the con trary, Mr. Garfield is roundly censured I for not keeping a supposed bargain made at Mentor by which he secured the support of the Grant and Conkling crowd. DANGEROUS OCCUPATION, On this point Messrs. Esterbrook & Sons, City Iron Feundry, of Boston, Mass., thus speak: Two or three of our men were badly burnt in working. They were, however, immediately cured by using that splendid remedy, St. Jacobs OIL All the men are highly pleased with It, and we shall always recommend It to those afflicted with pains or rheumatism. "Women Jievcr Think." If the crabbed old batchelor who uttered this sentiment could but witness the lutense thought, deep study and thorough investigation of women in determining the best medicines to keep their f amines well, and would note their sagacity and wisdom in selecting Hop' Bitters as the best, and demonstrating it by keeping their families in per petual health, at a mere nominal expense, he would be forced to acknowledge that such senti ments are baseless and false.'-Plcayune.
