He will rosume his story to-morrow morning. The proposed order of inquiry Into the loss of the Jaanuette is as follows: First, condition of the vessel on her departure from San Francisco; second, her management up to the time of her destruction; third, her lose; fourth, provisions made and plans adopted for the several boats crews upon their leaving the wreck; fifth, efforts made by the various officers to insure the eafety of the parties under their churge, and for the reliof of other par- tiea; sixth, general conduct and mer ita of each and all of the officars and men of the expedition. AGRICULTURAL STATINTICS The depsrtment of agriculture re- ports the uverago yield of oats to be somewhat higher than last year, or in 1670, and in product nearly as large as that of whent, probably about 480, - 000,000 bushels, 1llinois, Towa, New York, Wisconsin, Missouri, Pennsyl- vauia, Ohio, 1udiana snd Kansas are the states highest in rank 1o produc- tion and nverage yield, Rye averaged, from state returns, 14 710 bushels, making & crop of 20,000,000 bushels, or nearly the same as reported by the census, Tho indicated average yield of barley is about 23 bushals per more, aguregating 46,000,000 bushels. California, New York aud Wisconsin togather produce more than half, 27,000,000 1 1shels, The product in 1879 was 44,000,000, The prospect for buckwheat is good for nearly an average product, eloven to twelvo million bushels; Pennsyl- vania produces nearly half the crop and roports 95 a8 the average of c dition, 100 representing the full no mal yield, New York average is 76, No other state prodaces half & million bushels, The general average condi- tion of potatoes 15 8L, In the south, in the Ohio valley and in Michigan, Missouri and Nebraska the avera is 100 to 106, In the northwest and in eastern and middle states the con dition is lower; 70 in New York, 86 in Maine, 84 in Vermont, Re- turns indicate a probable yield of 80 bushels per Acre. The yisld per acre of corn will be re- ported in November. Condition averages 81, being very high in the south and comparatively low in states of the largest production, In Illinois, with eight per cent, decrease in area, the condition is ouly 72; in Iowa, 70; in Ohio, 87, Three states produced 40 per cent, of the crop of 1879, Careful comparison of changes in area and condition iadicates an average yield of 25 bushels to the acre against 28 in 1870 and 18 last year, The average for a series of years was between 26 and 27 bushels. Now England will produce, according to October returns, 7,000, 000 to 8,000,000; the middle states 82,000,000; the southern, $40,000,000; those north of Tennessee and West of Virginia ud Pennsylvania, 1,250, 000,000, aggregating 1,080,000,000.

THE RETIREMENT from active service by operation of law of Major General McDowell, Oc- tober 15, 1a announced to-day. Brewster's Opinfon. Special Dispatch to Tik Bxe, I iapereuia, October 16, - Attor- ney ueral Brawster, being spoken to t evening in reference to the aflida. . ublished this morningcharg ing that men in the employ of the government had attempted to bribe some of the jury in the recent star route trials, said: “I do not think 1t becoming to carry the case of the gov- ernment against criminals into news papers in advaunce of the trial. The mattor is in good hands, There is no fund from which auy money could be arawn for corruption of jurymen on behalf of the government, and there wes ab solutely no interest that the attorney general of the Uunited States could have in attempting it, even if anyb dy could thivk me capable of it. The whole fabrication bears upon its face the fraud that has been practiced. My ouoly covnection andinterest in the star route case was fulfillwent of a public duty, aud that aim I endeay- ored honestly to carry out. Events that will take place hereafter will ex- plain all that have taken place.” Without doubt attempts were made with more or less success to foist upon the govornment services corrupt men with the object of damaging the case It was a circumstance worthy of re- mark that every one of the jurors, who, it is alleged, were corruptly approached, voted for acquittal of some of the defendants. Some time TUESDAY MO R.LIW Notions and of tho celebrated for samples. his services were required, Whea ' the statement was recewved af the de- partment to the effeot that Taylor had mude an . sffidevit that ho wes employed by the department to corrupt jurors, ho denied it and it is understood that this and other subzequent convereations were reported by a concosled steno- grapher and will ma'crially damage his last affidavit. After his discharge, August 1st, Taylor, it is further alleged, strove to create the impres- sion he was atill employed by tho de- partment, the last attempt of the kind being upon the occasion of tha visit to Mr. Cameron, Ootober 7. o T BLOODY WORK 47T MINDEN. ‘The Sheriff and Two Citizens Killea ago, when Falls’ disloyalty was ficst discovered, the district attorney was advised by letter of the ciroumstances by government counsel, and his prose- tion recommended. After Falls' dis- missal he wroto lettors to the attorney general, who refused in the most em- phatic language to have anything todo with him, and referred him to Merrick, He had not, however, availed himselt of this advice Merrick added he already had three or four cases to bring to the attention of tho grand jury and would also be ready to pro- ceed with the retrial of the star roate case as soun a8 they are reached on the court docket. Gov. H. H, Wells, special counsel for the government, who is conduct- ing tho investigation into the jury bribery charges, was asked if he had read aftidavits published this morning He ansvered, **Yos, I have read Col. Ingersoll’s very ingenious argument and whilo it contains many acouracies and evident mistakes I do not think it proper for me to discuss the matter in the newspapers I may say, however, itis not trus 1 was employed by Mr. Cameron, In- deed I never saw that gentleman, nor had any communicition of any sort with him on any subject until after I was employed todo a plain profession- al duty. Another serious mistake is to sapposo [ am_investigating oxses of alloged bribery in any private interest. I would not undertake inveatigation of that sort, I regard it as un professional. I understand my duty to be to prepare cases against the mccused parties and whon prapared I shall undoubtedly proeecute them in the appropriate legal tribunale, nor will their prosecu- tion be hindered by this publication of Tngersoll or any like publication. The character of some persons making the affidavits is 8o notoriouzly bad that their statements would uot bs likely to obtain credence anywhere, My opinion is the public will be satis- fled to wait and see what the facts are. My work is in such a state of forwardness that I have for some days been in possession of all the wmaterisl to which the affidavits relate, but as they tnclude a small part of the mat- ter it ought not to be laid before the public until it 1s possible to give the fall, true and complete history of the transactions, From the records of the departwent I learned Fall was discharged July 17th, for proposing to control the verdict of some members of the atar route jur; in favor of the United States provid- ing a clerkship could be obtained or guaranteed for their relatives and frieuds. He was originally employed because he was & lawyer in good stand- ing in this city aud 1t was represented to the goverument he had in his pos- session evidence of & corruption of one of the jurors while engaged in the trial of & previous case, When Fall's improper econduct was disoovered he endeavored to shiold himself by say- ing Taylor told him it was what the department wanted. Ho was sum- marily discharged, for as alleged, it it beceme evident both Fall and Tay lor hiad come iuto the department as | spies for the purpose of doing things to compromise it. Taylor (another sftiaut) had formerly rendered good service to the government in other by Bandite. Spocial Luapatch o Tus Bax. Kzagpyey, Neb..

Slayback in the midst of the shooting aflray, as one he sold to Col. Slayback about four months ago; that it still retained his private trado mark, This estab lishes the ownership of the pistol about which there has been much doubt, and overthows that portion of Olopton's testimony that Slayback was not armed.
