Ily.
Grant, then, is weak man;
an automaton in the hands OF
his Radical keepers; as they
pull the strings, he dances;
neither bold nor sensitive to
honorable impulses, he moves
at the dictation of men Of no
more sagacity, but impelIed
Eby more active malice. There
are men who have only one
quality Of greatness, that o.
securing the advice of those
who know more than them
selves; Grant has not ever
this ability"

CRUsHING THE WEALTH-PRo-
DUcERs = There are, some six mil
/ lions Of working men in the coun-
try,a wealth producers Of various
kinds. Over three million of them
are agriculturists, For one or two
years, during the existence of the
wealth destroying war, the agricul-
tural interest tiourished. A sudden
demand for bread-stuffs, before the
Ecost Of labor began to swell up to
its present figure, enabled the farm
er 70 make large profits. He paid
off his debts and secured his indie
pendency, The hour of his pros
| p6rity was brief however, for the
enhanGed cost of raising his pro-
duce and the enhanced cost of sap
porting his family, soon wiped out
the margin of profit on each crop,
and to-day, these three millions Of
agrleulturists, being taxed, robbed
and plundered Of every dollar, over
the cost Of tAeir yearly productions,
/ blythe ruinots policy of the miserable
| government which curses the coun-
try, demand relief. They ask that
the necessities of life may not be
burdened with taxation; that the
paper dollar may be made as good
as the gold one; that economy may
rule in high places, as it must rule
| in the walks of humble life, if the
nation at large would prosper. Bnt
what response, does the appeal of
the great agricultural interest get2
None. The fanatical wretehes IN
! Congress who are destroying the
last spark left of national prosperi-
ty, who are slowly numbering hui
manity North and South by the dis
tress they are breeding, as corrup.
ton breeds maggots, deride and
laugh at the agony of the wealth
producers; enact week after week
I measures which plunge the country
into deeper suffering; depreciating
lie paper dollar; killing out com
mercial confidence, palsying trade
and entailing general ruin. Dt
these three millions Of agriculturists
mean to sleep over these abuses2--
{ Do they calculate to fold their arms
} and look calmly on, while gold goes
; up to 500, and the paper dollar fall
! to 20 cents? We ask them, because
! in wealth, strength, and numbers
they aggregate heavier than al
other interests Of the country com
bined and are power befor,
which no administration can stand
