Noble, regular Democratic nominee for
Congress, from this district, has with
drawn, in consequence of the refusal OF
part of the Democracy of the district to
support him. Another Convention is
called to meet at Clyde, September 9,

of the party who refused to support
Noble, will probably withdraw in favor
of the nomination of the new Conyen-

Climatic Curiosities.

The changes in country's climate by
sediment and cultivation of the soil Of
ten seem strange and inconsistent A
letter from late traveller in Nebraska
notes some curious, contrasts: ut Is a fIe-
quent subject of remark in the Ohio
Valley, that settling the country, clear
ing and ditching the land constantly
makes it dryer; that old wells and
springs are drying up, and each succeed
ing summer, branches run dry which
never did before. The French Agricultural
Report makes the same complaint, and
calls upon the Government to stop the
destruction of the forests, as the means
of preserving the rivers. But here, with
settlement, exactly the reverse phenOm-
ena are presented, and the quantity of
rain in Western Nebraska and Kansas
had doubled within the memory ofman.
Perhaps this is due somewhat to the
trees planted on new farms. but think,
also, that breaking up the sod allows it
to absorb more moisture than it could in
the prairie state, and in many instances
turning a hundred acres of sod will
renew an old spring. Fresh branches
are starting in gullies which have been
dry for hundreds perhaps thousands of
years. Thus, springs break out in the
thirsty wilderness, and streams of water
in thedry ground Here is an important
principle at work, which will enable
agriculture to make great advances on
what is now the American desert"
Akin to these are the facts of heavy
rains this summer in Colorado and CAL
ifornia, States where the rule of dry sum-
mers seem to have been invariable here
tofore. Who shall divine the lawo such
revolutions? --

California Pine.

An exhaustIess source of wealth, now
inaccessible, in the immense forest of su-
gar pine which extend hundreds of
miles throghout the State of California
on the mountain range The proprietor
of the lumber mill in Mariposa. county
has examined carefully a tract of LOCO
acres of this pine, where the trees range
from three to twelve feet in diameter
and generally rise from 100 to 125 feet to
the first limb. A belt of this timber
extends at least three hundred miles
parallel to the coast, no part of it above
or below certain latitude. 1t is re-
served for the wants of future genera
tions, but the subject of propagating this
pine in all cOngenial situations is en-
gaging the attention of parties on the
Pacific coast

What Repudiation Threats Cost.


The American people, when they hear
the Copperhead orators bewailing the
enormous taxes to which the public debt
subjects us, should bear in mind that of
the SIPS, 900, ,000 which we, pay annually
for interest, at least three-eighths is a
tax directly forced upon the people by
the Democratic party. During the war
money had to be borrowed, and we had
to submit to such terms as the money
lenders required. But since the armies
were disbanded there has been no ques-
ton in any part of the world as to the
ability of the United States to pay its
debt, and that, too upon the ascending
scale of increased population and produc-
tion, with a constantly decreasing rate
of tax. Money is to be had in London
and in Frankfort at 4 per cent. upon long
bonds. The United States could borrow
there at that rate if it were not for the
Democratic party. The question in Eu-
rope is-not whether the United States
can, but whether they apiU, pay the debt
according to the contract.
So persistent, universal, malicious and
defiant have. been the threats and the
efforts of the Democratic party to keep
the national credit at the lowest possible
point, that the money-lenderso of Europe,
who would cheerfully take any Ameri-
can loan at per cent, refuse to take it
except at q per cent, for that is what
We are now paying, according to the
New York Evening Post, our gold dol
lar being equal to only eighty cents in
European coin. The result is that we
are now paying in fact per cent for
interest and 81 per cent. as an Insurance
against reputation of the debt by the
Democratic party. We pay Sl26, 200, 900
annually for interest, when, if repudia-
ationists were silenced, the whole out
standing debt could be taken up with
new bond at but littleover half the pres
ent rate of interest. We pay fifty mil
lions of additional interest annually to
cover the risk that the Democratic party
will gain power and repudiate the public
