Why Grant Hates the Jew.

The famous war order of Gen Grant against
the Jews has given frequent rise to the ques-
ton; "What has Grant against the Jews
Why does he hate them so bitterly" The
question is thus answered by correspondent
of the Chicago Times:
During the winter of 80 and 80, Grant, then
living in Galena. embarked in the pork trade.
he bought dressed hogs and shipped them to
Chicago. On one occasion he came to Bellevue,
to purchase dressed hogs, where lived a man
named Rosenthal, clever Jew, who was in the
pork trade also. He wanted TO keep the trade
in his own hands. He circumvented Grant in
the following manner: Pcrceiving that the lat
ter knew no difference between the price of light
and heavy hogs, there being in market real
difference of one dollar per hundred, Rosenthal
selected at his warehouse all the light hogs and
placed them on wagons. These he drove out Of
town by out-ofthe-way streets. and returned
with them to the market place by the general
thoroughfare. Grant began to 'dicker' for the
loads. AT this moment Rosenthal came up and
bid against the inchoate general until the pork
ran up to the price of heavy hogs. Grant bough
them all, at dollar hundred more than their
value. 1t was soon noised on the streets that the
Jew had sold the Galena pork buyer, and every.
body enjoyed hearty laugh at his expense
This so annoyed Grant that he went home, and
never resumed the pork trade in Bellevue This
transaction 30 embittered Grant against the
whole Jewish nation, tina. it was the cause of his
order expelling them from his camp.

A PREGNANT FACT.-E. II. Derby in his
late work on the position and prospects of the
United States with respect to finance, cur
rency and commerce, notes the fact that the
state of Massachusetts, by rigid adherence to
specie payments i'll all its dealings as Il state,
has recently been able to effect II loan in Lon
don, for 90 years, on IRE per cent bonds, at a
PrenIinm Of Screnteea per- rent; premium
which will, in twenty years, it judiciously han
died as a sinking fund, be sufficient to pay off
the entire debt.
The great and irretrievable financial blunder
of cur government was, in departing from spe-
Gle payment year after the war commenced.
If our bonds had been sold for forty cents ON
the dollar, asd the principle of "a specie basis
sternly adhered to through the whole contest,
our debt would not be half what it is to-day.
The paper system was the parent of all the
reckless extravaganza and uneXampled public
plundcrng and swindling of which our gov
eminent was the victim. and so vitiated the
financial morality Of all our public agents il
not the people themselves, that the country
will not in an age recover from the dcmora

County Democratic Club.

Democratic Clubs having already been Or
ganizcd in large proportion of the towns in
this county, and delegates appointed to repre-
sent them in the proposed county club, it is
respectfully suggested and mged, that the
democrats in such towns as have vet no clubs
proceed to organize Immediately, and appoint
delegates, to meet with the others and assist
in organizing the county club on the day APP
pointed for holding the county convention
(July 9th) Constitutions for town clubs,
printed in blank, can be had free of charge on
application at the rooms of the Ottawa Dem
ocratic Club in Metropolitan Block, Ottawa.
1t is recommended that the town clubs send
delegates who are not delegates to the conven-
ton, so that the sittings of the county
club and the convention may not interfere
with each other.

FROM EARLVILLE.

The impression seemed to have prevailed here.
tofore among very respectable portion of our
intelligent citizens that the Presbyterian Church
held to the dogma Of "intfant do,nsaatioa" Rev.
John Ustic, having been advised that this notion
was entertained by very many honest people of
Earlville and vicinity, and feeling that such
error ought to be dispelled, appointed Sunday
June a. o'clock r. NJ, for the purpose of de.
liverng discourse on Presbyterianism, touch
ing the salvation of infants. Notice was given
out in the several churches in town in morning
services ON that day, and the result was, that
Mr.. Ustic's church was crowded to OVERLOOKING
Many were compelled to 60 a way, without gain
ing admttance. Those who have heard Mr..
Ustic in some of his very able efforts say that
he was exceedingly able and happy on this occa-
heard here anywhere. His sermons are always
brim full of logic and sound reasoning Those
who have been familiar with the rise and pro-
gress Of Presbyterianism ought to have known
that infant damnation was never any part of its
creed 3ir Ustc did our citizens, who honestly
believed that Presbyterans ancently taught this
doctyiAe, good service, in thus disabusing their
mind. Of this grows fundamental error. The
Univevsaist clergyman, Rev. Mr.. Ralph, was
present on this really interesting occasion. Such
sermons do good, and ought to be more frequent
SHADE TREES.
No little town within my knowledge in our
county looks greensrlthan ours with ornamental
trees. A good deal Of taste is being manifested
in planting trees along the streets and around
the houses here in our little city. The soft
maple seems to be the generally selected.
! notice these fine NAPLES in most every ones
yard, and the most of them more or less broken
by the winds. This is all wrong These trees
grow exceedingly rapid, and need to be d''orted
do,cn every year, for three or four years during
their infancy Cut off the limbs, half way
down, every summer, and this will cause tho
trees to "wood up" as we say, and become strong
enough to Withstand the wind. James Simons
has very fine row of those naples the whole
length Of the street on which is located his large
carriage mandatory and his fine dwelling.
house, and yet he suffers the tops to remain dis.
figured and broken by the winds OF Last year.
Jim, trim those naples Of yours. 1t lis wicked
to let them thus remain. Mr.. Simons is no
moro negligent than others. only name him
because no mas Rns place, and knows better
than to thus neglect those fine trees Trim your
trees, Jim. ~.

Changed Hands.

The Ottawa Republican of Thursday an
nOunces another change proprietors OF that
establishment. First Mr.. PUsEY, in grace
ful valedictory, announces the sale OF his in
tercst to his partner, Mr.. CULLEN, and then
Mr.. CULLEN announces the sale OF the whole
establishment to Hon. FRANKLIN ConwIN. OF
Peru, and GEORGE NJ. RADCLIFFE, Esq, OF
Tonca,-the new propretors taking possess
ion Immediately
We are sorry to part with Messrs. Pusey 4
Cullen Socially, and in their business rela-
tions, they are gentlemen of the first water,
and as editors certainly respectable. Mr.. Cul-
len is more than a fair writer, and could get
up first class political leader; while Pussy,
on locals, was certainly inmitable. We DIES
pair of his successors being able to fill his
place in that department.
While fully approaching the abilities of
their successors, we really think our friend
Cullen puts it too modestly when he claims it
as the chief good of his connection with the
Republican that he has delivered it over into
such hands rs those of his successors. Mr..
Corwn's ability as politician and political
writer, it is true, are beyond question, and
from what we hear, his partner is by no means
an apprentice; but there is no occupation in
which men of talent are so apt to fail as that
of editor. We cordially welcome, however
Messrs. Corwin Il Radcliffe into the great
press gang" and sincerely hope that their
highest anticipations may be realized With
the numerous former propretors of the Repub
Iran establishment, though often having sharp
goose quill encounters with them, we have al
ways been able to maintain personally friendly
relations. and we certainly anticipate no diff:
fculty in maintaining equally pleasant rela-
tons with our new rivals"

THE EARMERS


Are now feeling we'll. 1t has finally quit rain
ing and cleared up nicely. The farmers are busy
as bees, among their corn. There is the finest
stand of corn this year that have seen for many
years. The ''grubs' Just now are working some
fields badly Their operations, however, seem
to be confined to fields near the timber, and on
fields recently reclaimed from timothy meadow.
George r. Richardson, one of our best farmers,
tells me that in order to avoid the GRUB the
land must be kept to corn constantly, and ma
nure the land enough to keep it in good heart"
This is the way he does it, and never fails by
reason of crabs. Small grain never looked bet
ter in Earl. Flax is getting to be very impor-
tant crop in this section, owing in part to the
indcfatigable labors in its behalf by C. S. Nun.
son, Esq, who is entitled to the gratitude of the
whole farming community in this section Of
country.
POLITICS.
The readers Of the FREE TRADER will recol.
lect the nomination of Gen. Scott. He carried
just four states in our blessed Union Grant
will do vol if he carries as many. I Judge from
the feeling here in our own little town. He
falls as dead as hay. If, when that train returns
from New York, we can only see in the dim dis
lance, as the headlight, Pendle;on and Green.
backs, farmers will quit the pillow in the furrow,
mechanics will drop their tools, wives and moth.
ers will throw open the window blinds, fair ones
will wave their handkerchiefs, all will 20 forth
to meet the hopeward bound train. The people
and say it revsrently-are waiting as anx-
iOusly for the success Of the old Democratic par.
ty and its restoration to power the sincere and
pious Adventist is waiting, praying and watch
ing for the second coming OF Christ; and as sure
as the coming Of Christ is to redeem the world
from error. so the restoration to power of the
Democratic party will give TO this country the
only hope that remaias 10 Of the final restora-
ton Of the Union and sequential peace. When
the Democratic party went down the Union
went down with it. The resurrection of the
Democratic party will be the resurrection of the
dead Union. Restore one, and yeu restore the
other. If the Democratic party only husbands
its resources it will certainly triumph. If it
squanders recklessly its splendid resources it
will richly deserve defeat. If our delegates do
right on the 4th of July in New York. we will
then throw away our hats and go home bare
headed. Let US wait, watch and pray.
