STORM SIGNALs.-This plan of the
storm signals during harvest is by means
of the telegraph and is to convey the news
off coming storm to each of the county
seats, hundreds of miles in advance, in
the direction that the storm is travelling.
Then at each county seat cannon is to
be fred three times, which will warn
farmers throughout the whole country
that a storm is approaching, in time to
get their grain or hay under cover or in
a situation to shut out the rain. A tele.
graph company, by arrangement with the
county officials in several of tho States,
is about to put the plan into practical op.
Grafton, in time for the coming harvest.

which are annually damaged by rain du-
ring harvest will be saved by the univer.

HE ADVANTAGE OF LATINA very
good Member of the General Assembly
of Rhode Island once moved to translate
all the Latin phrases in the statute so
that the common people could understand
them. The exquisit folly of such a
measure was by no means obvious to the
great body of the Assembly,. 1t was as
likely to pass as not. A good sslid ar
gument against it would probably have
carried it through. The late Mr.. Opdike
took the ground that it was no advantage
to have the people understand the laws.
They were not afraid of anything they
understood 1t was these Latin words
that they were afraid of. Mr.. Speaker,
there was man in South Kingtown
about twenty years ago, perfect nuisance
and nobody knew how to get rid of him.
One day he was hoeing corn, and he saw
the sheriff coming with a paper, and he
asked what it was. Now, if he had told
him it was writ, what would he have
cared? But he told him it was 'capias
ad satisfaciendum.' and the man dropped
his hoe and ran, and has not been heard
OF since" Nor has the proposition to
translate the Latin words in the statutes.
The military preparations of the Unit.
ed States troops against the Indians are
not regarded as very efficient. The set
tiers characterize Clusters raids by say
ing that they are like hunting wild ducks
with brass band.
"Does the court understand you to say
Mr.. Jones, that you saw the editor of the
Argus Of Freedom intoxicated ?" "Not

that he would undertake to cut out copy
with the ,snuffers, that's all"

Of thousands with empty platitudesl If the
able speaker is rated shallow, the member who
will sacrifice public good for the creation Of
sensation is not only shallow, but criminal.
Justice, such as the vilest criminal may claim,
requires that, II a member accuses a high Off
cal of a crime, the punishment for which is
death, that he be required to produce the
proofs. 1t is easy for one to blacken
character when the person attacked has
no chance to reply, and it is a duty
which Mr.. Loan owes, not only to Justice
and his own character, but to the country a.
large, that either he remain silent and pro-
duce the proofs before the Committee; or that,
having made so bold charge before such an
audience, he sustain his charge before the
same body. We deprecate most earnestly this
style of harangue. which reminds US more
forcibly of the Jacobins of the French Revo-
luton than of an argumentatIve and repre-
sentative body. The members who thus
crafty their passion for notoriety at the
expense of reason, eDdanger the great cause
for which they are battling, and make them
selves ridiculous In the eyes of all think
ing men. Let the Loan style of speaking be
abandoned, and no charge made, in order that
the reporter can say that "Mr. - produced
a sensation" or that sounding peroration be
achieved

The United States and Foreign Emmi-
gTatiOn.


THE statistics OF immigration show that the
aggregate increase of our population from
this source during the year 1865 was nearly
25OO0O. Not only do these immigrants add
to the wealth Of the country by bringing
money with them, but they add much more
by contributing to increase the labor force OF
the country. Moreover, the constant influx
of immigration tends to preserve the equili-
brium of wages all over the world. Thus
wages in Ireland have sensibly increased on
account OF the great emigration of laborers
from that country to our own. Ireland few
years ago furnished the larger number Of
immigrants to this country, but during the
past year Germany has been the great source
of foreign supply to our population.
The German element has now become a
very valuable as well as important one in the
United States. In many of the States their
influence upon the tone of political thought
is very perceptible. They are generally en-
thusiastic devotees Of liberal principles, and
fully committed to the progressive measures
of the times. In the West, particularly, they
were among the most ardent and staunch
the war with the South. The State of Mis-
souri, may almost be said to have been saved
to the Union by the patriotism and gallantry
of her German citizens.
The unsettled and threatening condition OF
affairs in Europe will probably result in in
creasing the flow of immigration to this
country. 1t is fortunate for us that our
domain is vast enough, and our demand for
labor active enough, to enable us to throw
wide open our gates to the oppressed of all
nations. We have millions upon millions of
acres of fertile lands at the West, still wait
ing for the hand OF industry to convert them
into smiling and beautiful homes. Our great
mineral regions are in the merest infancy of
their development, and will keep up an in
creasing demand for labor tor years to come.
Our vast and ever multiplying railroad sys-
tenn calls for thousands and tens Of thousands
of laboIers. Hence we have room enough
for all. Equal rights, full citizenship, free
land, and plenty of labor, are the inducements
which America holds out to the overcrowded,
lily paid, landless, and oppressed millions of
the Old World!

Congressional Invective.

THERE is prevailing tendency among GER
tain members Of the Republican party in
Congress to carry everything to an extreme,
and having adopted the term radical, they
think they must be as radical in utterances as
in ideas, and as violent in their denunciations
as ip their principles. The cause OF this tend
ency to disregard the rules OF logic, and
seize on conclusions not warranted by the
premises, is found in their natural evaporation
at the treachery to which they have been
subjected, and to the sense of their power IN
both branches of the National Legislature.
While, under the circumstances, such exhibit
tions are not unnatural, yet they are. never
theless to be deplored.
Unless this preponderance of passion over
argument be moderated, it will eliminate, not
in the ruin of the Republican party, but in
the downfall of those who are now essaying
to be its leaders. Within the last two weeks
we have numerous instances of these attempts
to gain attention by startling utterances.
Two are notorious. Mr.. Ashley's resolution,
impeaching the President in which e. James
M. Ashley" figures far more than legality
demands; and the other is the instance of
Mr.. Loan, who made charge against the
President criminal in its nature, and who,
when questioned, refused to give his proofs.
From the tone Of these gentlemen's remarks,
from the conspicuous manner in which they
have sought to put themselves forward and
attract the attention OF the country by the
virulence OF their views, we cannot but ina
gine that their whole design is to secure
notoriety, and by a superfuous display of
buncombe to gain that reputation which
their abilities do not warrant them in hoping
to secure by legitimate merit.
OF these gentlemen, themselves, we know
nothing. They are but types of a class of
American public men who act rather on the
theory that the constant use Of their tongues
is better patent to popularity than any real
strength of intellect. Adopting the intention
to talk in season and out OF season, they do
indeed keep their names before the public for
a day, and receive the judgment of all dis
eliminating men, that the design is trans
parent.
We wish to refer to these gentlemen in q
spirit of plain common sense. The people
send representatives to Washington, not tC
make unnecessary speeches, but to legislatG
with wisdom. The only occasion when 6
speech is dprOpos is when their side of the
question is to be strengthened by their argu
ment. The floor of the House is no place fo
stump oratory. When member speaks ii
Congress he addresses the nation, not a
represented by literal y the nation, but tn,
telegraph and the press make his hearers in
crease to millions How utterly shallow
therefore, must be the man who, for the pur
nose of seeing his name paraded, will fill tn,
columns Of papers and occupy the attention
