OCROP PROSPECTS. ILLINOIS, Boectal Dispatches te The Tribune, Dwianr, 11i., June 9.~~A year ago to-day the Iate corn was not yet up. Now It §s nos in the ground. The week just closed has been one of great trial to the corn crop in this whole reglon 8bowers have been quite frequent, and the flelds generally too wer for planting. On Bat~ urday the general opinlon of most of our farm. crs was, that a largo majority of the corn would have to be replanted, and the heavy raln of to- dsy will keep them out of their flelds for several “days, This will mako plant- Ing very late, An old settler sald to me (c-dn{: My observation has beco, whea we liave liad to replani our corn tho crom bios been usually a faflure.

On the adjoining (un- ditched) farm, the land for acres is perfectly inundated with water, The crops are destroyed, and general ruin {s the result. The only salvation of our farmers in Livinestone and adjoining counties is Lo go to work at once, and both with tile and open ditching redeem their lands, for they are bankrapt. e alr to- night Is very hot and sultry, snd we fcar moro TRin.

Detroir, Mich,, June 2.—The polltical cam- palgn of 1878 {n Michizan will undoubtedly be the most exciting known in its history since 1862, when the coalition of dissatisfied Repub- licans with the Democrats threatened to be very formidable, snd did reduco the usual largs Re- publican majority to a few thousands, It will certalnly ba longer than any political conteat, limited to the State merely, which the present Reneration has known, All tho tickets will be fn the Aeld before the end of the pressnt month, and the Congressional mominations will also be made from one two months eatller than has been tho rule here in the pust. Tho Btats canvass will thus usdoubtedy have su actual durstion of nearly fiva months, and will ba fn full blast at leust three; whereas heretofore & month and a balf of lively work s all that the managers have deemed necedsury. The first formal step in shaping the coming contaet will be the meeting of the Convention (or rather conventions) of "the Greenbackers ot all kinus at Grand Raplds, on the bth, to noml- nat Btate ticket. T rganization—which claims tarepresent the * Nationa! " Convention of last February at ‘Toledo—is headed by Moves W. Field, of thiacity, and its call fs for s con- yention of delegates by countles at the Opera- Houso,—sald delegafes to be chosen by msss or delegated County Conven. tlons, according to tho condition of the local organizations. A rival call bas also been fssued by Ralph E. Iloyt, lately publisher of & Green- back paper called the Sun, at Juckson, and fs addressed to the Graenback Clubs of the State, and orders its Convention to meet st the Morton House, at (rand Rsplds, ous bour before the Field Convention. Hovt fs the man who wus delegated by *‘Drick " Pomeroy to_charter Qreenback Cluba {n Michigan, and Pomeroy alalms authority in the matter from some actlon of the Nattunal Commitiee of the Cooper-and- Cary party, The ciubs which have been thus chartered b{ Pomeroy or his -,enu &re quite numerous [n tho Btute, and toyt's course has crested quite & breeze in the Greenback ranks. TheJackson “Council” heve expelled hitn a8 ‘‘a traftor’; but he has met them de- Hantly, and shows no signs of abandoning his round. Cf course, he {8 backed by Fomeroy' Biemiocrat; but the Michiean Greentackc papers without cxception, stand by ¥ield.—sonie of them abusing Hoyt, aud uthers unliting remon- strance with “ condliation.” It is dificult for autsiders to judze aa to what is ''the true jn. wardnoes " of this commation. Koyt, o his published exptanations, attacks the title of the party given in the Field call, as fgooring the original snd simon-pure Ureenback element, and sl¢o claime that the Field crowd ara favors. ble to the iuterconvertibie-bond provosition, while he asserts thai the only urtbodox Greon- hack doctrine fs, “*No bonds of any kind for any purpose.’* Pomeroy also charges ¥ield anda his assoclates with Intrigulng tos deliver over the Natlonals to the Democrats, throuzh soms coslition that woald be really a surrender. Thu reply cousists iu solema denists and fo counter-cherges,—Hoyt and Pomeroy being frequently sucuaed of belug in the pay of ooe ar both of the old partles, who are duscribed ss trembliog before the certaln alts thew if the lonals pull to- ‘Thus far the County Cop- ventions ha arule,chusen delegates to the ¥icld Couvention; but eoms have recogoized the Morton-Houss call; one or two have clected dulegstes ordered (o brlog about = fusiou, buy to train with Hoyt if thut should fall, sud quite auumber have resolved in favor of s policy of cunciliation. At present, §t acems to be quite robable that the Hoyt gathering will amount Yo enouph to Interfere somewhat with the Field slate, but that it will fioally be absorbed by tha Opera-Houso watheriuw, which will momiuate tha Buate ticket. The platform will probably be like that recentlv adunted by the Indisos Convention of the sawe party, The more prominent men {n Btate politics, who bave thus {ar publicly allied themscives wita the mew moveuent, arg the following: Heory Chamberlain, of ‘Three Ooks, the Demo- ctatlc candidate for Goverour in 1574, sud \wice » Demoerstio caodidate for Congress o Fourth District,~bo was one of ihe members of the 8t.
