General Butler was yesterday renom-
mated for Congress-only few scat
tering votes being cast against him in
the Convention. He found himself
forced, however, to make an abandon
ment of his financial heresies. Among
the resolutions which he offered is one
pledging the national faith and honor
to the payment of the public creditor,
''not only according to the letter, but
the spirit of the laws under which the
contracts were made )" while another
one pronounces against all attempts to
depreciate the value of the currency of
the country. The General however,
is cunning to fence" with words, and
his speech, will hardly bear out his ex-
cellent resolutions. But he has often
done better than he promised I'VE hope
that the habit may continue. It is
generally understood that large num-
Der of dissatisfied Republicans, who
were unwilling to give any sanction to
the Generals financial views, refused
to go into the Convention. and have
proposed to run another candidate. 1t
remains to be seen what effect the reso-
buttons proposed by General Butler and
adopted by the Convention are to have
upon that purpose.

THE STAMPEDE.

In all political struggles, especially
one of any prominence, a stampede
occurs-a complete turning over from
one party to the other, not only of the
rank and file, but occasionally leader
of more than ordinary weight. This
turning and overturning denotes the
undercurrent in the party and enables a
careful observer to determine with con-
siderable accuracy which is to be the
winning party Such a stampede has
now taken place in the Democratic
party. Thousands are leaving it. The
scales of party bigotry which have
blinded their eyes for so many years
are falling off at last, and by the thou
sands are uniting with the Republican
party Many are the reasons for this
change. They have weighed the Dem
ocratic party in the balance and it has
been found wanting.
1t professed to be q loyal, Union
loving party, yet it inaugurated and
carried on the rebellion.
1t protested to support the govern
ment in its hour of trial, yet it discour-
aged enlistments and gloated over rebel
victories.
1t protested to love our army, yet
voted against every measure looking to
the support of that army.
1t protested anxiety for the success Of
the national army, yet it caused riots to
resist the draft.
1t protested to sustain our bonds and
currency, yet it deprecated them in all
the markets of the world
1t processes to believe in hard money,
i. e., gold and silver, yet it desires the
government to raise $4,000, 100000 of
paper dollars.
1t professed to be governed and
guided by loyal men, yet they permit
their candidates to be made and their
platform drafted by unrepentant rebels,
such as Preston, Hampton and Forrest
And so through the whole catalogue
their actions give the lie to their profess
sions.

TERRIBLE ACCIDENT AT MOUNT HOPE,

On Thursday last a terrible accident occur

young Englishmen, named James Richards,

at least 175 tons, fell upon the men. The
noise of the fall attracted the attention of

HOED CROPS Hoed crops are the
most costly in labor of any which the
farmer grows. Therefore, they should
be the most profitable. The greatest
difficulty which the farmer in this coun-
try has to contend with in order to
make his business profitable, is the
price Of labor and as he is obliged to
bestow great deal on his hoed crops,
he should take care, by judicious man.
agement and Use of the products, to
make his outlay of capital remuner-
ative. How to do this should be sub
ject of much thought.
Corn and potatoes are the two most
largely grown and important of this
class of products. One rule which will
apply to both, which the wise farmer
will act upon, is to obtain as large a
yield as possible from each acre plan
ted. This will diminish the amount
of labor in proportion to the product
obtained. Every bushel will, therefore
cost less than when the yield is small.
The next important point is to get the
best return for the crop. AS corn is
the best reliance of the stock feeder in
this country, and as manure from
stock is essential to grow continued
large crops, it is obvious that skillful
feeding to stock is the most remuner-
atiVe disposal that can be made OF the
corn crop. Hence, good breeds, am
PIE shelter, and proper care, are
indispensable adjuncts. In short, if
labor has cost you too much, resolve
! to plant less ground, but raise more
per acre. This can easily be done ii
you will only set about it. Next,
determine that your corn shall produce
more pounds of meal per bushes
than heretofore. This you can ac-
complish by a timely and judicious
selection of improved breeds of stock,
and NOR skill employed in handling
them. No farmer should be satisfied
if he cannot improve every year on
his past method. Thought and en-
ergy applied to your business will do
this.
The potatoe crop is always sold for
cash, and this produces no manure
for the land. For this reason, it is a
very exhausting crop, and no farmer
can persist long in growing it largely
without impoverishing his land. On
account of their bulk, potatoes can
not be grown profitably great dis
tance from market. On the right
sort of land, and near market, they
usually produce good return of
money per acre; and potatoe growers
should devote part of the proceeds
of the crop towards the purchasing of
manure to renovate the land. Plant
less, manure more, and your labor
will bring greater profit.-Rorot Nenc

it, &c. And ask that the Committee
be discharged and the Resolution ta-
bled, and so ends the most wanton,
outrageous and disgraceful scene that
has occurred in a deliberative body,
since the world began. There is not a
tribe of Savages on earth, feeding on
locusts, lizards, cold mare meat, or
train oil, that would submit to the
deep disgrace of being led by such men,
and yet the once proud, free and boast
full American Nation, bears this and
infinitely more from this IoiP party.
