Eight hundred acres of fall wheat as fine as silk, is the record we have to make from the mammoth planta tion of Henry Bacon, It is esti mated that he will thresh 30,000 bushels of wheat this fall. It re quires a man with something under his hat to make the prairie blon&om in this kind of style, and it is no wonder that such men as Sir Alferd Jingle think that Henry ought to be sent to congress wearing a plug hat.
