Greedy iRa EAlGsas.

Horace Greedy recently delivered 8
speech at a Republican convention, held
at Osawatamie, Kansas, which closes with
the following eloquent peroration:-
Freemen of Kansas! | would inspire
You with no unwarranted, no overween-
ing confidence Of success 10 the great strug-
gle directly before Us. I have passed the
age Of Illusions, and no longer nresuine a
party Or cause destined to triumph merely
because | know it should On the con
trary, when | consider how vast are the
interests and inf combined 10 de
feat us-the Three Thousand Millions of
proper ty in human flesh and blood 1.-The
subseryiency of Commerce to this great
source Of custom and proft-the preva-
lcnce Of Ignorance and of Selfshness af-
fecting the many Millions prodgally law
ished by tho wieldcrs of Federal authority
the lust of Office and the prevalence Of
Corruption-I often regard the struggle
of 1860 with less of hope than of appra-
hension. Yet, when tn nix ofthe steady
diffusion Of Intelligenco-the manifest al
tagonism between the efforts of tho Sla-
very Extention SITS and the interests of
Free Labor-when | consider how vital
and imminent i, the necessity for the pas
sage of the Free Land bll-when | feel
ow the very air of the Nineteenth Cen
tury vibrates to the pu sat- rs of the great
heart of Humanity, beating higher and
higher with aspirations for Universal
Freedom, until even barbarous Russia is
intent on striking off the shackles of her
fettered Mlions-I cannot repress the
hope that we are on the eve of grand
bencficent victory. But, whether destined
to be waved in triumph over our next
great battle field, or trodden into its mire
through our defeat. | entreat you to keep
the Republican flag flying in Kansas, so
long as one man can anywhere be rallied
to defend it. Defile not the gloro is dust
of the martyred dead whose freshly grass
ed graves lie thick around US, whose i'm
plorng spirits hover over us, by trailing
that flag in dishonor or folding it in cow
ard despair on this soil SO lately redeemed
by their patriot blood. fit be so destin-
ed. in the mysterious Providences of God,
to 90 down. let the SUM ght which falls
lovingly upon their graves, catch the last
defiant wave of It's folds in the free breeze
which sweeps over these prairies; let it be
burned, not surrendered, when no one re-
mains to uphol | it; and let its ashes rest
forever with h s;rs by the banks of the
Marias DIES Cygnes.

Sardinia.

AS the eyes of the whole civilized world
are turned with interest on SARDINIA, we
give brief mention Of its condition and
resources.
Sardinia is situated in about the same
latitude as the south east part OF France,
and embraces IL north western States Of
Italy, eleven in number, and the Island
Of Sardinia, which is divided into three
more. It's extreme length is 249 miles,
and its breadth about 200 miles. lis
area is 1927 square miles; the Island
embraces 9,235 more, making total OF
2s.472 square miles; and it contains in
all 5,ooo,245 Inhabitants, according to
the latest census.
The plains of the river Pc embrace the
most productive part Of the country. IT.
rigation is parctised there, and large crops
arc secured. Iu the southern part of Sar-
DINA and on the Island. the olive, the
vine and the mulberry are the most valu-
able products. Manufactures are not ex-
tensively carried on, but iron and lead
mines are worked to some extent, and
salt is obtained from mines and springs.
The chief articles manufactured are silk
stuffs, velvet ana hosiery, woolens, gener-
ally Of coarse quality, linens for do
nestle use, hardware, earthen ware, glass
DC. Cattle, sheep and goats are raised
among the mountains, chiefly with view
TIC dairy produce.
The present government of Sardinia Is
an hereditary monarchy, in which the
power of the King is limited by consti-
tutional restrictions. Its legislature con-
sists Of two houses, and meets annually,
Their Judiciary is composed of four supe-
rior courts; the highest one sets at Turin,
and is called the Camera Regia.
Its regular army numbers $4,000, but
on a war footing is 1901 900. IDe navy
counts about so vessels, Carrying 1000
guns. The established religion is Roman
Catholic, yet other religions are tolerated
Common schools are supported all over
the Kingdom; they have four universities
which contain about 1000 students, and
the secondary schools have sarly $4,000
pupils. Turin is the Capital, and Genos
is the principal seaport and center of for
elon commerce.
1t will be seen that this whole King
nom is but little larger than one half the
State of Wisconsin, but its population is
sixteen times greater than that of this en-
tire State.

Editorial Good Breeding.

For several days the Madison Patriot
and Argus have been applying all the per-
sonaI epithets to each other, known in
the BilIingsgate diet onary. Now the
fight has got to such pitch, they cannot
see one another pass their office, without
making faces OF each other. If Pump
gets cut of seak at the butchers, Cal
kins dimes on fish. If Ca!Eins has soup,
Pump orders mush and buttcrmiIk. If
Pump buys green tea, Calkins goes in
for black. They won't shave at the same
BARRIERS. sit in the same church {nor any
other drink the same Leverage, nor walk
the streets at the same time. Caikins
had fine grey horse, Pump had one
left him by deceased relative, and on
learning that It was the same color as Cal
kin's horse, sold him at auction the same
day. They write what they dare not
print, on each others doors, and as SOC n
as they can muster sufficient courage, we
expect to hear of a duel, but hope neither
shot will prove fatal. at least, till each one
can have time to ask God to forgive his
many sins.-MI. NeWs.

CGOper,s Novels.

Messrs w. 4 Townsend 81 Co., of n.
Y, arc publishing a new and finely il
Illustrated edition of Cooper's works.
B. F. TAYLOR, of The Chicago Jour
nal, speaking Of til Ell, says;
ain other days, when the Future shall
meet the past, and the roll shall be called
of those who have contributed to their
country's glory, COOPER shall proudly
answer "HERE!'
That must be deemed an incomplete IL
brary, no matter who owns it. that does
not have shalt for Scott and Cooper
Of the last, we trust that Daniel Web
ster's words will now find new confirna-
ton; While the love Of country shall
prevail, so long viii his memory exist in
the hearts Of the people. His writings
are so truly patriotic and American, they
should find a place in every Americans
library"

A short time ago we alluded to the fact
that quite large number OF people were
engaged in digging ginseng in the woods
in the eastern part of this town and Trim
belle and other towns. We see by our
exchanges that this root is likely to prove
a source of considerable profit in parts of
this State and Minnesota. The Farri-
bault Republican says that over SIC tons
were brought into that place in one week.
The ST. Peter Statesman, says that in
that locality ginseng digging has become
regular business, and pays well, some
diggers making as high as $3.50 per day,
while the average is nearly $500. 1t
says:
SAT present men, women and children
are digging away for dear life. Ginseng
is about the only thing talked or thought
Of" The Mortified Journal says that
the ginseng mania is all the rage in that
vicinity. The beauty of it is, it brings
cash ut ten cents pound, just as dug, and
there is no danger that the market will be
overstocked.
The root is dried and exported to Chi
na, and we hope the eelestials will chew
and smoke, at least until the hard times
are over.
The latest parody on Excelsior" begins
as follows

Paul Morpay on Chess.

Paul Molphy, on his return from En-
rope had public reception in New York
and was presented with a splendid board
and set of chessmen, valued at $1,000.
In the course of bis speech on the oc-
casion, he said -
"Chess never has been and never can
be aught but recreation. 1t should not

We have no news Of Importance from
Europe. Both armies are consolidating
in immense numbers but we have no
news of actual fighting. Great enthusi-
asn seems to prevail in the French and
Italian armies. Napoleon commands the
French in person. His addresses to the
soldiers are well calculated to initiate their
confidence and fire them with daring war
like zeal. The following is the closing
paragraph of one Of his orders of the day.
s'Soldiers. Let us all do our duty and
put our confidence 10 God. Our country
expects much from you. From one end

The Free Democrat thus gives its idea
of what will constitute the Millennium
and of the means by which it is to be
wrought out.
"The millennium is not myth. No
one who has studied human possibilities
can doubt the possibility of that condition.
But it is 10 be wrought out by human et-
fort. 1t will not come as q miracle
The first step in the work is to take the
grasp OF one human being from the throat
Of another. Don't let merit be put down
by the strong hand because of its sex or
color, and demerit be lifted up by the
same strong hand because of its sex or col
or. Put all on an equality of rights
Then merit will gravitate to its true alti-
tude, and the world will have the beueft
of it; while demerit, without facticious adj
vantages, will sink like lead in the ocean,
out Of sight and out Of influence

DEAR JouRaAL; : We are just recov-
ering from the effects Of severe frost,
which visited us last night. By age, | do
not mean that myself, or any other res
pectable citizen of this city was frost-bit-
ten, but merely that our vegetable prod
ucts and garden sass generally were the
sufferers. The frost has done consider
able damage to corn, wheat, dc.
Much damage is being done by the
high water. The mills below town are
vet idle and have received some injury.
The Levee is mass Of ruins. Its ''fair
proportions" are hidden from human
view, by depth Of from two inches to
three or four feet of water. The floor OF
WALsrow's Hardware & Commission
Store is covered with water, and the Lake
is still rising at the rate Of an inch an hour.
Part Of the roof of the large stone build
ing owned by Mr.. WIeG1Ns, was blown
off during the storm on Tuesday night.
A new Grocery Store has just gone IN
to operation down on First ST., at the Old
stand of Brown d Chambers, making an
addition of two new business houses in
our city this season. There is another es,
adjustment right opposite the Star Office.
"a new one, don't know whether it
was started under official patronage or
not, but they keep ''side ornas," there.
Among tie improvements Of this sea
son, is a carriage road around tho bluff
that lies between Walnut and Buckley e
sts., it being continuation Of Third st.
Part Of the way the road is dug through
sand rock, and is what might be called a
work of Art, as Nature has done but very
little, except furnishing the material, to-
wards its construction.
Yours, NOSE.
