Within four hours ride of Montreal,
by rail, is a colony of from 10000 to
$4,000 Highlanders. The county of
Glengarry, on the eastern frontier of
Upper Canada, is full of them. In the
back settlements they retain their
ancient language, sing their Gaelic
soags, and have their Gaelic preaching.
About halt of them are Catholics and
half Protestant. The Glengsrry men
are renowned for their size and strength.
1t is said that tie townships of Ken yon
and Lochiel alone could turn out a
thousand Highlanders-not a man OF
them under six feet in his stockings.

NEW YORK, July 10.
The Hcrdid says the Democratic par
ty has decided that the next President
shall be Grant. against Grant
amounts to a Democratic surrender or a
disbanding of the Democratic party.
The Times says the Democratic ticket
will not bring out even a full vote, will
disgust the non-partisan element, and
nothing but series of miracles can
save the party from defeat.
The Tribune after recounting the
former political course of Seymour says:
If this man can be chosen for President
over Grant then the patriotic blood shed
in the war was shed in VAN.
The World says that Seymour is the
first statesman in the Democratic party,
possesses personal qualifications and ac-
complishments which befit him for the
magistrate ola great nation, has Il strong
grasp of the questions relating to the
shattered state of the country, and his
election will establish confidence at
home and abroad in the financial honor
of the country.
The SIN says Seymour is an eminent
exponent OF the Democratic party but
does not think Blair will add to the sue
cess of the ticket.

There are several ways in which L may
be possible to amend the frauds perpetrated
during the election Firstly, the military
authorities may act in the meter; secondly,
Congress may legislate with reference to
them. Thirdly, redress may possibly be
obtained through the courts of law; but
undoubtedly the most reliance is to be
placed on the incoming Legislature. I'm
less President johnson is convicted the
Republican party has little to expect from
the military authorities. 1t is not likely
that Congress can be induced to legislate
specially for Louisiana; and from the courts
as at present constituted there is small
chance Of full redress. But the Legislature
can pass metropolitan police bill with
board Of police commissioners appointed
by the Governor, and thereafter so amend
the city charter as to give US new elee-
ton. With commissioners of election who
will discharge their duties fairly and i'm
partially, ana with a police force which
will preserve the peace and enforce the
law, the Republicans can carry this city by
several thousand majority. As the country
saved the Convention, and then the new
Constitution, so we now must look to it to
save this city from Rebel-Demoeratic rule.

Business men, lawyers, judges, and in fact
all classes should bear in mind that the
REPUBLICAN, publishes officially the laws of
Congress as soon as passed, the important
advertisements Of the government quarter
masters and commissaries, inviting pro;
posals for all manner of supplies, the entire
official proceedings of all departments Of
the city government, including the sheriff 5
sales for delinquent taxes, and is the only
paper in the State in which every advertise
ment in bankruptcy is ordered to be pub
lished. Aside from its political, commercial,
and literary value, it is indispensable to
nearly every man in the State on account Of
these Official notices. 1t is the only daily
paper now published in the State that had
sufficient enterprise to publish the new
Constitution entire. We do not neglect
any subject that is of any interest to our

THE GRAIN TRADE OF THE MISSISSIPPI.
We stated few days ago that both the
feasibility and economy of shipments of
grain in bulk via the Mississippi river to
Northern and European ports have been
sbundantly demonstrated by actual ex-
perience. A saving of twelve days in time
and fourteen cents per bushel in the cost
Of freight from Chicago to New York, and
the arrival of large consignments in New
York by this route in excellent condition,
are stubborn facts which can not be put
aside. We notice the recent shipment of
an immense consignment of grain in bulk
from st. Louis ia the same direction, and
the Chicago papers freely admit that if it
reaches its destination in good condition,
nothing short of ship canal between St.
Louis and Chicago and ship canal around
Niagara Falls can longer secure to Chicago
the monopoly of the Western grain trade.
Messrs. Highly & Son propose to have
their great New Orleans elevator in opera
ton by September l, in time for the next
grain crop. The contract for lumber has al
ready been given out. This local enter
prise will also be Of immense benefit to
the farmers Of the gulf States. Were the
planters Of the Southwest to become farmers
to-day, were they to leave off planting
cotton and turn their attention to grain,
neither th, means nor the appliances are
ready to move their crops to market. For
a Red river farmer to ship hundred bush
els Of wheat to New Orleans commission
merchant, or to come down with it himself,
would be an act Of folly.
There are no small merchants, or at
least very few, in the country towns and
villages and at the shipping points alsng
the lines, to buy up the small crops of the
farmers in the vicinity to prepare them for
shipment, and to forward them to New
Orleans. The steamboats, are not built to
transport grain economically. The com
mission merchants of New Orleans look
upon such shipments as unimportant. Their
attention is confined almost exclusively to
cotton, and but few of them seem to COM
pFehend that not only the days of King
Cotton but also those of the factor, his
WhilOm prime minister, have forever passed
away. They will perhaps BY and BY wake
up to the actual condition of things,
Meanwhile Messrs. Highly q Son are moving
in exactly the right direction. Success to
the New Orleans elevator

appea nee in June; in ls6S and '6e they
frst appeared in July, and in 1854 IN the
last days Of Jpae. The, reason for their
being SO much more destructive in 1854
than in 1867 was that in the former year
the cotton planting in Louisiana was con-
fined almost entirely to the bottom or
sugar lands below Baton Rouge, while in
the latter but little cotton was planted in
the delta, but was mainly confined to the
uplands, where the worm is less destruet-
i've.
The appearance of the cotton worm in
May is, so far as we know, unprecedented.
It was known in the South before the war,
but as it rarely appeared before the last
days Of September, or in October, its
presence was thought to be beneficial
rather than hurtful to the crep, in that the
stripping off of the leaves was supposed to
hasten the maturity of the upper or later
bolls. The appearance of the cotton worm
was rarely mentioned as an element
in the annual estimates of the
crop. What now makes the matter
worse is the fact that the cotton
crop is more backward than usual. Many
planters have not yet finished scraping, /. e..
thinning out and cleaning the young plants
frem early grass and weeds. Some of
them have replanted the fields already raw
aged by the worm in corn, plan which
we trust will be generally followed, as
there is yet plenty of time to make good
corn crop.
Many planters claimed that the destruet-
i've ravages of the cotton worm in 1864 re-
suited from the circumstance that the fields
had not been cultivated for two or three
years. Everybody said that the worms
would not come two years in succession;
consequently whoever had money, or could
borrow it in 1865, and especially in 1866,
went into the planting business. The re-
suit we all know. It is evident that there is
butlittleifany wholly really reliable knowl-
edge of the laws that govern the generation
and advent Of this ephemeral but ravenous
creature Some scientific light upon this
all important subject is certainly a great
desideratum. q We hope that the incoming
State Government viii put us in the way Of
getting the results of the best knowledge
and experience thereupon.
