Titc Wheat Crop. Though this crop is not so important to this part of the country as the Corn crop, it is a vital element iu our prosperity. When it fails to turn out well, thecalamity isst verely felt by all classes farmers, merchants, mechanics, miners, transportation men, and laborers. Inquiries, therefore, directed toward a just understanding of that, as well as other of the staple productions, their probable yield, &c, are highly necessary, and the results of these inquiries form the most important matter that a newspaper publisher can give to his readers. It is iu tlii j view of the subject that we have copied numerous extracts from our exchanges of late, and made many inquiries of producers w hom we have been able to see, in reference to the state of the growing wheat likewise the tobacco. The latter we have said something about of late : the former now claims our renewed attention. We have just been conversing with Mr. A. IS. Wilkinson, who lives in Gibson county, near the Vauderburgh line. He is an enlio btened and experienced fanner, and a lean whose word may la? implicitly relied otj. He gives us these facts : Out of sixty-live acres that he put in wheat last fall, twenty acres will have to be plowed up and put in .corn ; twenty acres will not yield more than enough to pay for harvesting; and from the remainder of the ground, lie will do well if he gets enough wheat for bread, and seed for next year. So far tis he can hear in every direction in all his neighborhood the wheat is not so good on nn average as his. There is no chance for the crop to be saved by favorable weather. The mischief is done. A great

uVal of wheat-land will have to be plowed up and iiit in corn, and much of it will be allowed to remain as it is, with no hope of yielding sufficient to repay the labor and seed expended ou it. In the country around him, t'ie farmers will do well if they get enough of this grain for bread and seed. He considers his prospects rathrr better than the average. There can bo no surplus. The injury was done, Mr. W. thinks, by two very cold sleets that fell last winter when there was no snow to protect the wheat. This 11 froze it out,'' and the difficulty was aggravated by the drought that prevailed last month. The late raiu has rerived that' which was not already killed, but much of it whs desl royeJ. Wheat that was sowed early in the fail lias tlone the best. There is very little diiJIcd wheat where he lives. Our informant has heard from Keileviile, III., and the trouble is represented a worse there than here. lie says there is not any great surplus old wheat iu his neighborhood. Judging from this ami other urtfiivorabta reports we have heard, we are satisfied that the wheat crop must fall seriously short in this region of country. More than the usual amount of Corn will have to be raised to meet the deficiency. This can yet be done, and as this grain will bring good prices, iu consequence of tlie extent to which corn is made lo give way to cotlou in the South we are yet on the sate side. The excellent, water communication we have-, with tb; cotton-growing regions gives us great advantages and fair profits iu the raiding of Corn. . . gigALr.

He has lately been performing at Louisville, aud other places up the River, where he has been taking the folks' risibilities by storm, and gratifying their tasle for the lieautiful by his iioetic recitations. The Cleveland Leader speak s as followsof him : Mr. Burnett has a most jiowerful and flexible voice, and is capable of giving it poem with the most thrilling elicit. Ilia entertainment last nignt was fully aud fashionably attended, llisehanges of character are superb we heard mot e than one person deny the possibility of Bill Sloenm aud Mon. Tonson being one and tlie same person. The Louisville Journal, in speaking of his "Maniac," jays : In fact, we have never seen any delineation of character by Booth or Forrest that could begin to equal it.

Hotel Fund amounting to $::000 or Ijj-lrtOO. part of which it is supposed was sent to Pennsylvania and a portion spent in New York during the Presidential contest. The committee required him to produce a list of subsribers, which he declined, on the ground that he could not do so, because It would involve a breach of implied corHidence and besides no power was given to the committer to ask for tha introduction of a paper citirely private in its character. The committee differed from Mr. Schell, and insisted on the production of the paper, i material to the investigation, and accordingly proposed a resolution that the Speaker issue a warrant to the Seargeant at Arms to bring Mr. Schell l:fore the bar, to answer for contempt. Mr. Winiluw will submit a minority report and luUJ subject will be considered on Monday. Mr. Colfax asked tanaainxi'J consent to report a bill from lUo Post , -Office Committee making att appropriation lor supplying the Pike's Peak region immediately with mails.

Tlie Dorr Letter. . We have bad " in pickle " the letter that Judge Douglas wrote to J. B. Dorr, Esq., of Iowa, last summer, w Lieu we had intended to publish, (fearing tlie Democratic papers down here would not do so), for the purpose of remiudiug our squatter sovereignty readers of the position of their chief before the Charleston Convention. The Enquirer of Thursday morniug, however, published it, and there it stands on record, as a pledge that the Little Giant will not accept tha nomination at Charleston except on his own terms, there laid down. Now let us see whether the "glittering bauble " of the Presidency will prove too much for his integrity and manhood.

Gkbat Editorial Excunsiox. Extensive preparations are being made by the offiters of the Baltimore and Ohio Railway, for tlj csCQursion about to be given to editors, over I lisl uud connecting railways, during tlie months uf April and May. The tickets are te lie good fisr two mon A.?, namely, from April 15 to June 15. Xhp Directors wish to obtain the name of every piier published in the West, and of its editor. The ;best vay to give them this information, would ,be,to send a copy of each paper published to the Company's office in Baltimore. This should be done without delay. ——>A letter will be found in to-day's paper, giving an account of the burning of the "Elkhorn Mills" at Boonville. The enterprising proprietors deserve the aid and sympathy of the community in which they live, and we hope soon to hear of their being able to rebuild and resume business. ———<>——— FAIR WARNING.—From the news we get this week, there is every reason to believe that the construction and completion of the railroad, in a reasonable time, is a "fixed fact." We would therefore advise the "old fogies" who do not wish to be disturbed in their "Rip Van Winkle" sleep, that it would be well for them to provide some rural retreat, where the sound of the whistle and the puff of the engine will not be likely to disturb their repose. They have a right to be happy, and we feel an interest in their welfare, and advise them in time.—<Hend. (Ky.) Mail>. ———<>——— Impohtakt Ciiaxckof Timk.
