The Century, which is now under the able
direction of Mr.. Thomas M'Elrath, to whom
the Tribune is indebted for its financial pros
periiy. quotes and comments upon the Oppo-
sing dieta of Thurlow Weed and Horace
Greeley-Mr. Greeley prefering the princi-
Piles of his party to fifty unions, Mr.. Weed
the Union to fifty parties.
The Century does not affect TO doubt the
patriotism of Mr.. Greeley, but explains as
follows why it never rises to higher level
than partiz4nship:
The truth is, Mr.. Greeley's fixed, steady
contemplation of a single point only, in
stead of embracing the whole range of any
subject, disqualifies him altogether for the
duties of a great statesman, and renders him
an unsafe counsellor. With him republican
ism is only one thing at a time-now it may
be temperance, now tariff, now anti-slavery
each in its turn paramount; but any grand
system of politics or POLITICAL economy,
with checks, balances and compeusatiOns, be
has not yet grasped. Hence il is that he has
never been Influential either AZ Washington
or at Albany, except when he has been act
ing with his party in the minority. His
natural inclinations seem always to run in
opposition to the ruling powers, and his
force is usually exhausted at the very mo-
ment when those with whom he is acting
witnesses the triumph of their principles.
The Century explains why Mr.. Greeley
would have his party rule though the Union
were ruined; and this in way not wholly
to him, since it is the result OF
the natural limitations of bis character and
intellect. Another problem is worth the
Century's attention-Why Mr. Greeley de-
sires TO rale or ruin his party?-World

The Planting Interests.

Mankind should long since have learned
that the susienance OF man proceeds alto
aether, directly and indirectly, from the soil.
Whether we shall have an adjustment of our
political troubles or not, the primary law of
Nature will not abate, because of the result
of any scheme or enterprise that the wit of
man may devise, or set on foot. In peace
or war it is the same. We can live but
few days at most, wiihot food the mass of
us can live, breathe, however unhappily
great while even in the most fierce national
and international strife, with something to
eat. There can be no army without Com
missary-the soldiers mnst have rations--
and that means, at least, meat aud bread.
The peace list must have the same. Every
body must have something to eat. That
something 10 eat must come ont of the soil
from the sweat Of somebody's brow, as
originally decreed. The sewer, the plough
man and the reaper stand together In up
holding the fabric of human life. So far as
existence is concerned, we must have fields
Of wheat, of corn, of grass-we must have
herds and focks. It is a consolation and
blessing, of which we should be duly appre-
eiative and thankful, that these are not Who'll
ly dependent on the fact, who may be Presi-
dent, who may be successful in party con-
tests, or what artificial lines may be drawn
over the earth's surface in the division of
nations and peoples, and in bounding govern
ments and Institutions, but the rains will
continue to fall on the just and the unjust,
the seasons will follow each other in the or
der fixed by Providence, and the ultimate
mother Of all is not wayward or ungracious.
Our latitude and longitude are fixed for all
time. If LINCOLN is just or unjust, if DAVIS
fourishes or falls, the sun and the clouds
will alternately deck and obscure the firma-
ment, alternately warm and refresh the EARTH
and night and day will pursue each other, |
each shedding upon man its multiludinous |
blessings and glOries. However far men may |
wander from the pathway of rectitude, Ma |
ture is always true.
While the nation is convulsed, and the Is |
sue is yet doubtful whether it shall stand /
amid the storm of passion and prejudice |
which afflcts it on both sides, let US not for
get that in either event, there is still seed /
time aud harvest. We hope our farming |
friends, of whom we are gratifed to number
a great many of our readers, will remember
this. And we embrace the opportunity af
forded by this glorious spring day TO exhort
them to push the plough. Prepare for full
graneries in the Fall, now. We shall have
some rough days yet before the opening of
Spring, but this beautiful weather speaks to
US of time long past, and we inVoluntariIy |
find ourselves in the midst of the lambs. the
fresh growing grass and the newly turned |
soil. But We cannot indulge these happy |
reeollections- We can only tell our plant
ing friends to scatter the seed, "put in" the |
last acre, be diligent, and they will in reap
ing, serve humanity and receive rich re-
compense for themselves.
