Fruit ProsDecfs.

The following scene of forty acres O
peach trees in bloom in Egypt" as South.
ern Illinois is called, is taken from the Blu.
rean County Patriot:
During recent tour through portion
of Central and Southern Illiuois we were
gratitied beyond measure at the unparallel-
ed fruit prospect. Throughout the coun-
ties of Macoupin, Madison and St. Clair
and along the tier of counties in the lati-
tude of st. Louis. to which our observation
was limited, there was never a richer
promise. East of the Illinois Central road
we saw many large peach orchards in full
bloom. Amongst these, in the neighbor-
hood of Odin. forty acre tract set out in
peach trees presents scene perfectly en-
chanting with fragrance and beauty. The
trees filled with bloom. resemble an i'm
mense flower garden, the air everywhere
redolent with perfume.
The same paper (of May III goes on to
say: 70 etf
Nor are other fruits less promising. Ap-
Piles, pears, cherries, apricots and ounces
will be abundant. Lower down in Egypt
the season, is more advanced, and the
bloom is falling to give place to the incipi-
ent fruit. Everywhere throughout the
fruit growing region of this blessed State,
there will be an abundance. While these
are more plenteous, the small fruit, straw
berries, raspberries, blackbelries, currants,
gooseberrieS, etc. are more than usually
promising. Let the non-growing 1ruit re-
gions be inspired; Egypt gives an unusual
promise; there will be enough 1or these
hyperborean regions, and the rest of man
kind as well. ~ t#u.

Working Io a Purnose.

In another article we notice the fact
that friend in the brief space of three
hours had obtained list of 30 subscribers
for The STATESMAN for the Campaign at
Defiance, and that by next week he ex-
pected to run it up to 100. By the sue
ceeding mail we received an addition of
seven subscribers. He says the list will be
run up to 100 at that Office, and that if all
other parts of Ohio were to do as well, THE
STATESMAN would be well sustained. That
it would, and the result OF such labors
would be found to be exceedingly salutary
for the Democratic party, and there is
scarcely town in the State where by the
exertion' of few active Democrats such
lists can not be obtained. Will not Dem
ocrats all over the State take hold of this
matter in similar spirit --.u

Fraud and DECENTRALIZATION.

Undoubtedly there is most astounding
corruption prevalent in several of our
Government departments. 1t is notorious
known to the public through the press
known to the authorities through the
searching inquiry of innumerable special
agents-but who is punished for it? We
have repeatedly laid before our readers ac-
curate and detailed accounts of transactions
by which the revenue department is annu-
ally defrauded in the article of whisky
alone of amounts that would pay the ex-
penseso OF an economical Government
There seems to be no remedy; for while it
is easy enough to detect and expose
the swindlers, whether in whisky or 9TH
er articles, there is a wonderful conta-
gion, and government officers touch the
corruption only to become corrupt. There
is enough money in the swindles to buy up
all who come near enough to be danger
ous-collectors, agents, detectives; and
from the patent fact that there has been so
much exposure and so little punishment, it
would be drawing no very violent conclu-
sion If we assumed that the money was not
without its influence on men much nearer
to the central power than. district officers
or investigating agents. 1t is but tNtoo evil
dent thatif man can make enough money
by corruption he is beyond control He
buys the detective who discovers his
secret-he buys the government agents
all the way up-he buys, save in
some -fewi rare cases, the Judge on
the bench, and at the last, if ever consign-
ed to prison, he can buy his way out from
any turnkey. With the legal restraints
thus defective, is there any other? Is there
moral standard anywhere that can be
brought to bear? Where has society sent
to Coventry the millionaire whose money
was made by the detected fraud of untaxed
whisky or shoddy blankets? With the
moral standard so blunted in high places
thatwe cannot punish the recognized head
of the most gigantic treason in history,
that the author of atrocities without paral-
lei goes scot free-with such condition in
the upper political atmosphere, how can
we expect anything better in places of less
responsibility?-N. Y. Herald sl- g.. -sf

The Right to say Anything. r.

The Ne,o z ORR Times, in allusion to Judge
KELLEY at Mobile, says " he had a right to
speak to them and to say anything he
pleased" The Boston Post inquiries = Has
man right to say " anything he pleases"
to public assemblage, or to an Individual {?
Has he right to insult those whom he ad-
dresses by irritating accusation, denuneia-
tion and threat, and then hold natural re-
sentiments a crime? Is not an individual
who tamely submits to unjust reproaeh and
to insolence considered craven to be des-
pissed? The right of speech does not en-
brace the right to7wantonly abuse, taunt,
defy, threaten. A speaker has. no more
right to rudely assault his audience with
his tongue than with his fist-no more
right to be blackguard than bully, and
freedom of speech that tolerates either the
calumniator or the ruffian would be more
honored in the breach than the observance.

LETTER FROM JOHN GRIFFEN.
~

.-fgEE INBW ORk, rep. I'll, 1866.
. Hon. Wna. d. Kelley-SIR In your speech
at negro meeting on the 18th inst, at
Washington, in the First Presbyterian
Church, you stated shat if Fred. Douglass
was not qualified to vote in the city of
3 Washington, it was very strange that the
very meanest of your race should be enti-
tied to do so for President" This was your
language published in the city papers.
have known you since the year 1929 or
1880; have known you when you were a
violent jackson, anti-Bank, anti -Whig,
anti-Clay, and a strong Calhoun and pro-
slavery man, of the most Copperhead kind !;
l knew you when you were one of Fanny
Wright's followers; an Atheist OF
the most ''damnable" kind; l knew
you when you were leader of the Phila-
delphia church, burners in 1S44-yourself
and Lewis G. Levin; knew you when you
wanted to burn down the churches that
your father worshipped at, and where you
received your name at the baptismal font.
All tnat you would have done, were it not
for the gallant few, Gen. Patterson, Gen.
Cadwallader, ex-Mayor Swift, Josiah Ran
dali, and last but not least, Col. Du Solle-
all Protestant gentlemen, all Americans,
with the exception OF Patterson, an honest
PRESBYTERIAN of '9S. You are renegade in
religion as well as in politics, and dis
grace to the name and memory OF your
honest father and kindred. A bird that
fouls his own nest is filthy bird.
Yours. JOHN GRIFFIN,

lal' sis "A GARD From THE .9.iu5i
AMERICAN MATCH COMPANY
is Aai'"n a7H 6nsoF. boz yiblEo' fsi /
a. WALTHAM, MASS I-.5

THIS Company beg leave to inform the public
that they commenced operations in 1880 and their
fac ory now covers four acres of ground, and has
cost more than million dollars, and employs over
700 operatives. They produce $4,000 Watches q
year. and make and sell not less than one half of all
q the Watches sold in the United States. IN
The difference between their manufacture and
the European, is briefly this: European Watches
are made almost entirely oyAdnd. and the result is
of necessity lack of that uniformity which is in
dispensabe to correct time-keepng. Both the Q Q
and the hand of the most skilful operative must
vary. But it is fact that, except Watches of the
higher grades, European Watches are the product
of the cheapest labor of Switzerland and the result
is the worthless Ancres, Lepines and called Pat
ent Levers-which soo1 cost more in attempted re-
pairs, th an their original price. Common workmen,
boys and women, buy the rough separate parts of
these hes from various factories, polish and
put them together, and take them to the nearest
Watch merchant, who stamps and engraves them
with any name or brand that may be ordered.
H0 W AMERICAN WATCHES ARE MADE
The American Waltham Wateh is made by no
such ncertain process-and by no such incompe-
tent workmen. All the Company's operations from
the reception of the materials to the completion
Of the Watch, are carried on under one roof and
under one skillful and competent direction But
the great distinguishing feature of their Watches,
Is the 1act tnat tnelr several parts are all made by
the finest the most perfect and deicate machinery
ever brought to aid of human industry. Every
one of the more than a bundled parts of every
Watch is made by m4chine-that infallibly re-
produces every succeeding part with the most un-
varying accuracy. 1t was only necessary to make
one perfect Watch of any particular style and then
to adjust the hundred machines necessary to re-
produce every part of that Watch. and it follows
that every succeeding Watch must be like it. .
The Company respectfully submit their Watches
on their merits only. They claim make .'. s..
s BETTER ARTICLE FOR THE MONEY
by their improved mechanical processes than can
be made under the old-fashioned handicraft sys-
tenn. They manufacture Watches of every grade,
from good. low priced and substantial article, in
solid silver hunting cases. to the finest chronome-
ter and also ladies' Watches in plain gold or the
finest enameled and jeweled cases but the indis-
pensable requisite of all their Watches is that they
shall be GOOD TMEKEEPERS. 1t should be
remembered that. except their single lowest grade
named Home Watch Company, Boston," ALL
WATCHES made by them i'it"
~ ARE FULLY WARRANTED
by q special certificate, and this warrantee is
good at all times against the Company or its agents.

The Radical Congregational Ad-

The Radical Congressional Committee,
in their address to the South, on s.The Pol
icy of Congress in Reference to the Restor-
alton of the Union," !" after speaking of the
laws erected by the Radical Congress, says
The negroes of the South, by the meas
ures of the Republican party, as express
ed in these acts OF Congress, are elevated to
the full and equal rights of the citizens of the
States to ,o7sich they belong, and of the coun-
try which hereafter will recognize no dis
ttnctton on account of race or color. The ma
| ton is indebted to the negro race for SER
vices rendered during the late war. The
NEGRO race is Indebted to the country, con-
trolled in its policy by the Republican
party, for the emancipation of the race
from slavery, and now. by these acts of
Congress, for its eIeuation to a. position OF
equality. From these reciprocal services
arise mutual obligations, and the nation
can no longer hesitate. 1t will at once, and
freely, concede to the colored race every politi-
qad pabl nc right that is enjoyed by dry class
Of 'citEsens. The negroes, on their side, cam
not hesitate to support the party and prin+
ciples by whose labors and influence their
redemption has been accomplished. Thus,
lby, this natural and necessary union of
forces in the, South, and throughout the
whole country, peace, progress and pros
perity are secured.
The Radical majority in Congress having
secured to colored men every political and
public right that is enjoyed by any class OF
citizens, "by elevating them to position
of equality" with the white race, Iths Me-
groes, on their side, "cannot," says the Adj
dress. "hesitate to, support" the Radical
Ticket. The Abolition party, by its MEM
bers of Congress, by elevating the Negro,
and in corresponding ratio degrading
the whites, now demand their pay. The
debt must be cancelled by Negro votes,
and, when election day comes, woe be unto
the darkey that dare vote. the, white mans
Ticket. '''''' ''>''' 60
I The avowal of a more shameless bargain
in politics was never, before made. 1t is
but part and parcel of the same reckless
scoundrelism which led, the Radical leaders
and Radical press to demand that before
the Southern States should have the rights
in theUnion which the Constitution guar
antees them, they should elect, as Senators
and Representatives, men who would vote
with the majority in the present Congress.
The whole of the sympathy shown by the
Radical leaders, is thus shown by the Adj
dress to be mere matter of bargain and
sale-the Radicals giving the Negroes the
right to vote, and with it, the right to hold
office and take their seats in the jury box,
provided that the Negroes, when they do
vote, win always vote the Radical Ticket.
