The details of the teriible lires in Mich igan and Wisconsin are of the most heart rending character. It seems that a huge lection in both these States has been swept over by lire, destroying many lives and a vast amount of property. The strip ol territory in Michigan lying be tween Green Hay on the east and Fox and Wolf rivers on the west, comprises ϋ tract of four thousand square miles, tho greater part of which has been deva>ta ted. The flame* had crept down from the north by the western line of this belt, when tho wind shifted to the south and south-east, and the lire returned over tho uuburued section lying between the burn ed district and tho Lake. In this way, probably, were cut off the m ο η y refugees who had lied from fires in the north. On Sunday, it is reported, those encircling Dames destroyed over four hundred lives! Ou the opposite side of the Lake ihe [orest lires have apparently boon quite as jad. The lumbering town ol Manistee îas been nearly consumed, -06 buildings taviug been burned on Sunday night, ,vith a total loss of near a million dollars. Holland, about JO tuiles south of Grand Haven, has been reduced to ashes, and he flames seem to have swept across thef γ hole breadth of the Stale to the foot of ,ake Huron.

Not less than five hundred children have been born in tents and on the open prairie since the terrible dis aster, and many deaths anil much suffer ing have eusued. temporary buildiugs are beiug erected in every direction and there are hundieds of houses ready for occupation.

The past season has been one of u very singular nature as pertains to tho growth of crops in Poru. When the farmers sowed their soed in the spiing, the pros· poet was that Mother Earth would pro duce bountifully. A greater amount of land was sowed to grain than for several years past, and tho producers thought that if the season should lut favorable their labors would bo rewarded ton-lold; but, alas! their hopes bave to an extent been blasted, yet an average harvest litis been stored in the storehouses of the la boring classes ol this town. The hay crop is of good quality, though not so much in quantity as lust year. The crop oi corn I think will average among the corn crops lor several years past, though many fields were injured by the grass hoppers. The manner in which they managed to destroy this crop, in many eases, was to alight upon tho tender silks as they came from the stock aud eat them off, so that tho seed could not torm on the cob, and consequently every t (tody in ι horrible manner.
