The wheat crop. --A letter dated Stewart county, Ga., May 11th, says: "We commenced cutting wheat to-day.--Wheat in this county was never better, and there is an abundance sown. Look out for cake a plenty soon." Another, dated Walker county, same State, says: "I have been in this part of the country from its earliest settlement, and speak from observation when I say that the prospect for a good wheat crop, both in quantity and appearance, has never been better — I think hardly so good as at present. Should we escape rust and other mishaps the crop must be abundant."
A mob Invoked in Chicago. --John Wentworth, through his paper yesterday morning, was guilty of the most disreputable act of journalism that we have ever seen in a long experience. He openly and publicly and unblushingly called upon the public to mob the Marine Bank, and take from its vaults the money deposited there by the citizens. He called upon every man in Chicago who had no money and wanted some, to go to the Marine Bank and mob that institution, and help himself. We doubt whether, in a civilized community, a more infamous proposition was ever published in a newspaper.--Chicago Post, May 11.

ortion of the papers relating to the war in America, published in the London Post, of February, 8th, omitting the earlier correspondence, which dates as far back as November, 1860, and is of no possible interest or importance at the present day. With a view to preserve, as history, the official record of the mission of Messrs. Yancey, Rost, and Mann, we commence with. Lord Russell's interview with the Southern Commissioners. Lord Russell, in a dispatch addressed to Lord Lyons on the 11th May, gives an account of an interview he had held with Mr. Yancey and his colleagues. My Lord: On Saturday last I received at my house Mr. Yancey, Mr, Mann, and Judge Rost, the three gentlemen deputed by the Southern Confederacy to obtain their recognition as an independent State. One of these gentlemen, speaking for the others, dilated on the causes which had induced the Southern States to secede from the Northern. The principal of these causes, he said, was not slavery, but the

ll that was due them in the Federal funds he had, and sent them back to Louisville. Morgan, with his squadron, is now in Chattanooga, bright, fresh, and confident as ever — ready for another operation of the same kind. We are informed he will be here today. Our people had rather get, a sight of him than Queen Victoria. Again we say, Hurrah for Morgan! We add to the foregoing the Yankee account of the exploit, which comes to us in the Northern journals under date of Louisville, May 11: One hundred and fifty of Morgan's cavalry at noon to-day captured forty-eight freight and four passenger cars and two locomotives at Cave City, Ky. Morgan supposed the train would contain 248 cavalry prisoners, bound northward. The operator at Cave City, however, gave notice of these facts to Bowling Green, and stopped the upward train.
