When the fact is known thnt valuation for taxable purposes is usually put at about two-thirds the real value, the real estate and improvements in this city may be put down at over aevon millions of dollars.

The Crops.—Invariably as spring frogs, the crop.-croaker| appear in due Season, as soon as the planted fields reveal the deposit of seed by itWi[dilVilopinant of growing planU. fj^Ment season haabeeri more favorable for the growth of an abundaatihtorveat of grain and fruit than any WhitfhJ has preceded.-It ftir a number of years. Nevertheless, th'dciroakers must sing oj die, -eo tbeya^sert that the season is too favorable and the growth too good. There is probably some cause for this as regards the wheat. The farmers in this .vicinity fear that -itis -too-rank— there will be too much straw and not sufficient grain. Corn plating is ended, and for it the season promises favorably. The river is receding rapidly and there will be ample time to replant on the bottom lands, that which was destroyed by the recent flood.

In a few localities it has fallen to some extent, but hot enough to cause material Injury. Mr. F.

Eagle

says:

Much rain during the week stopped planting and gave farmers the blues. A large portion -of the corn will have to be replanted. The Wabash and St. Marys have both been very high, the latter within two and a half feet of extreme high water mark. Bridges have been washed away on many of the smaller streams, interfering considerably with communication with the country. Wheat and oats in the river and creek bottoms have been drowned out, but we have no means

estimating the damage.

for useon this important

oocalftonc .The" circumstance bas canied no little Bum not only here, but in Bwton and Philadelphia. It looks aslf the sages ofthe- Philharmonic had, after years .of patient deliberation, decided that the Steck piano fulfllls the highest requirements in an instrument of this class..

In this verdict there Can certainly be no intended disparagement of the claims of the older established makers. The acknowledgment is clearly this—that the Steck Grand has reached, at least, an equal, ifiAot a. higher point of perfection than its rivals a claim that we find endorsed by two eminent authorities of the muisoal press, the

Weelhy Review

Watson'$ Art Journal.

..I*

says: The

continued rains of the paBt week have raised White river several feet, and although at this writing the waters have fallen agreat deal, immense damage has been done to the growing crops. A large amount of corn, which was beginning to show itself, has been washed out and entirely destroyed, and wheat and other grain planted on low land adjacent to the river or the numerous little streams which flow into it, has been so washed over and thrown down, as will very materially damage the flattering prospects of a few weeks ago.

says: A curi­

ous fact is noticed with regard to the effects of the late freshet on William Martin's field of broom'corn in the bottoms on the other side of the river. It was supposed that it was all kil.'ed, of course^ when it was submerged and great was the surprise when, the high waters bav iing receeded,tho corn was found all right, looking asittle pale, perhaps, but otherwise none the worse for Its bath, and it bad actually grown several inched while under water. Very little was washed out. The water, however, seems to have equally promoted the growth of the weeds, and more than half the field of about-flfty acres will be plowed up and replanted, that being cheaper than grubbing out the weeds.

The Indianapolis

Journal

says:

From a careful examination of our State exchanges we find, the growing crops everywhere throughout the State reported as most flourishing. The wheat never looked better is a' remark heard on every hand, and if no misfortune overtake,the growing crops we shall have a muci'larger yield than" has ever been harvested in Indiana. The corn crop is late, in fact planting is not yet complet«d, but when entirely through, the amount

planted will be large and with our present warm weather It will rapidly develop, and we may reasonably expect a large yield of this great staple. Fruit of all kinds will be abundant. Apples and peaches promise: more than an average yield, and all kinds of small fruit will be plenty.

T-he Piano-Fobte Supremacy.—The piano-forte supremacy question is beginning to assume tiew plane. The New York Philharmonic Society, which we must regard as the highest musical tribunal in America, has hitherto shown a preference, for the instruments of two makes only, Steinway and Chickering. But at the final concert of the season when Booth read "Manfred" to the. accompaniemeBt of Schuman's music, and Mr. Charles H. Jarvis, the promising young pianist, was introduced from_ Philadelphia, a bold move 'was made in an entirely new direction. The Steck grand which was*oddly, and to this day unaccountably kept put of the Paris Exposition by the" American Commission ers— was the instrument selaetdd by. the Phjlharmonic

and

Mr. Hager .records his impression of this feature of the concert as follows: "A new feature in this concert was the introduction of one of the Steck grand ffianos, which fully sustained tho reputation of these jwell-tmown makers., The tone of the instrument baft a most melodious charm, fully in accordance with the character of the composition, and that of the tone of the orchestra, a feature not always met with when the sounds of the piano-forte and the orchestra are mingled."

And the veteran Watson speaks with equal force. ,, "Mr. Jarvis displayed those beautiful qualities of the instrument which he could control, in the clear and delicious brilliancy of the medium quality of the instrument, in his scale passages, which, by-the-by, is a point of beauty not always fgund, even in the best instruments The Steck piano certainly made good its place among the best pianos of the day." —N. T. Season of May 24th.

The official recognition of the Steck pianoforte by the Philharmonic, is, to say the least, a sharp rebuke to tbu American Commissioners, who contrived to shut it out fromicompetition at the great Paris tournament.

During the short time that has elapsed since the introduotioa of the Steck piano in this city, .Mr. JCissner, the agent, has already sold a large number of grand, squarei grand, and regularjequares of this justly celebrated make, a number of the buyers being judges of the most reQned musical taste, and who, after the most Scatoful comparisons among tho pianos of rival makes selected the Steck. «By all means go and see the pianos which were kept out from competing at Paris.
