Hay.

Hay.
Tho annual shipments of hay from this
place to Michigan and Northern Wisconsin.
are much larger than is generally supposed.
ID. Durkee, Esq, has now in operation one
the most complete hay presses, probably, -
be found in the State. He expects to press
for shipment about 600 tons of hay, cut on his
own lands the present season. His machine.
ry presses the hay in packages of about 406
pounds each, and with so much sohdity that
they can be bored into with an augur, the
same as other solid substances. Mr. Durk ee
has all the proper machinery for cutting and
gathering hay, and his rule is to make hay
while the sun Shines" and not otherwise,
when possibly avoidable; therefore his hay
crop has reputation for good quality in the
market. Other parties here also ship large
quantities OF hay, during the year, from this
poiat. The lumber region in the northern
part Of this State, as well as in Michigan, win
for many.yesrs to come, afford good market
for the hay crop. There are many tracts OF
land within a convenient distance Of our LAX G
bsrbor, which are well-adapted to the grow
ing of hay, and which, very likely, can be
more protitably devoted to that purpose than
any other.

Enisconal Ohnroh.

We understand Rev. Mr.. Smithett, of this
city, will preach in st. Matthew's church
next Sabbath, which will be the last sermon
Of his ministry in the church. His year will
not expire before two weeks from next Sab
bath but he has made arrangements for the
supply Of the pulpit by other clergymen, after
Sabbath next. One week from next Sunday,
Rev. Mr.. Smithett will preach in St. Johns
church, Chicago, the pulpit of which has late
ly become vacant by the resignation of DR..
Bishop.
In this connection it is proper to say that
Rev. Mr.. Smithett, since he has he'd the posi-
ton of rector of st. Matthew's Episcopal
church in this place, has distinguished him self
as roorking clergyman. He is a man of far
more than ordinary industry and pcrsever-
ance. Added to these qualities, he posses ses
logical and vigorous mind, much originali.
ty, and large acquaintance with books and
the current literature of tho day.

Fall Trada.

Our merchants, mechanics and business
men are confidently expecting large fall
trade. During the long period of warm wealth
er there has been partial suspension Of bust
ness, especially in some departments, but the
time for vigorous renewal of trade is be-
ieved to be near at hand. 1t is true the ex-
pectatiens Of our farmers have net been fully
realized crops have not been uniformly
good; but still there is an abundant surplus
for market. Our merchants and dealers in
this city intend to be well prepared to meet
the demands for goods and wares of every
kind.

Gov. Seymour's letter of acceptance is per-
yaded by spirit of sectionalIsm, pettiness
and small SANDER, which shows how utterly
incapable he is ofeven pretending to be more
than the chief of a clan. In saying that ''the
people ought to have a clear statement OF
what has been done with the money drawn
from them during the past eight years. he
implies that no such statement has yet been
given them. This is a naked and bold I'M
truth. Mr.. Seymour doubtless throws out this
assertion as an apology for the falsehoods he
stands convicted of uttering as to the cost of
re construction and Of administering the gov
eminent. But his statements were false, not
from any want OF clearness in the official re-
ports, because these were the very sources
from whence they were SO easily contradict
ed. hey were false, either from his igno-
rance of the facts, or his deshe to distort
them. His letter Is mainly devoted to q Sc
ries of" fings"-they deserve no higher name
they are neither facts nor arguments
against the Republican party. He declares
that the officers of the Southern State Gov
ernments could not. live in the States they
represent without military protection AS it
is not claimed that this is because of any 9TH
er crime than their devotion to the Union. it
seems little unfair for Gov. Seymour to
charge 1t as a crime upon the Union men of
the South, that the Klu- KluX clans and Dem
ocrat organizations stand ready to murder
them at sight. This is the Old complaint of
the wolf in the fable, that the lamb rolls the
stream. ~t4A ~ --
Gov Seymour thinks the passions of the
Republican party are less aroused and vehe-
ment than they were during the war. Very
likely. The firing is less brisk than it was at
Gettysburg and the Wilderness Men con-
demned to listen to the twaddle of Seymour
may be even more Disguised, but they can
hardly become so aroused as when facing the
cannon of Lee. Mr.. Seymour declares that
he has issued nearly 5000 commissions to Of
hcers OF the army, and knows their senti-
ments that the largest meeting OF loyal sol
dlers ever assembled was that which met at
New York and Endorsed his nomination, and
that never in the political history of our
country has the action of any like body been
hailed with such universal and widespread
enthusiasm as that which has been shown
in relation TO the position of the Democratic
Convention" These assertions are brazen
and audacious. We wonder he did not stop
to remark that the rebellion was suppressed
principally through his mastery generalship,
and persistent courage. 1t would not have
been more impudent.
