TuE PiAGUT oF TuT LoCT>Ts. 4 late
nuRIber OF the Terru .riti RaterpriS.. pub
li>hed al Virginia. Nevada. says 4 gentle
man from the new mines on the Owyhee
river. eighty miles north Of Elko. reports
that while iu that region. cncsmpcd in the
vicinity of Mountain City. lie had an oVpor-
tunity Of seeing two or three armies Of those
gra>s-hopper> or crickets. OF which We have
heard 50 much through the Western papers.
He says that they came in three or fclr d.
visions each mile in length by half a mile
in width. They stopped at no;hn. evident
IL belonging 10 the class ofthe unterriiied.
Fire and water were all the same 10 them.
On reaching Owyhee they swan the river.
They went out from such willows a. stretch
cd across the stream as far a. they reached.
when they jumped in ana struck out for the
opposite shore. Millions OF these strange
insects thus crossed the river which.ai the
point mentioned is AT least thirty feet wide.
and went hopping on TO the southwark.
Each army travelled III a southern direction.
The whole face of the country i covered
with grass. the usual food of these insects.
but they held il cheap. there being such an
abundance Of il. and went after something
stronger. Passing ny all vegetable food.
they attacked saddles. brides and such ar
ticles. They would climb up any such ar
ticle left within their reach in countless
numbers. and in a very short space Of time
il would be almost totally devoured. The
fish in the river which they crossed would
not bite for four days afierward. having
been completely gorged with grasshoppers.
WHEAT.-It is proved that % bushels Of
wheat and its straw abstract l15 b. Of
mineral matter from the soil on which il
grew potash. soda, phosphorus, lime. sui
phur. magnesia. chlorine. iron and silica.
As none OF these elements can be supplied
from the atmosphere, If the whole crop of
straw and grain is removed from the soil.
it will become rapidly impovished. But as
$50 lbs. of these mineral matters is con-
tanned in the straw. which is generally re-
turned to the soil enriched with animal
manures, both the mineral and organic fer
tility of the soil is often kept up: and a ro-
tation of crops or green manuring with
clover. with the aid Of plaster. bone dust,
&C., will keep the soil perpetually fertile.

Revenue Rrform, very strong minority
including nearly all the Pcnnsylvanians, Will
stnbbornly refuse TO he drawn into such a
questionable alliance. IL il probable that there
are ut this moment IA many Pig Iron Dem
"ocratsr as Republican Frcc-1 raiders elected to
the next House.
Hence we note prodigal assurances that the
new party il indefinitely pOstponcd-tbat the
Revenue RcfOrmers purpose to fight their Dat
tie inside the Republican lines-that they
never intended to be other than Republicans,
&c, &c. And, whatever they may have IN
tended months ago, il is plain that most ol
the Reformers nOU mean to call themselves
Republicans for the present.
But, gentlemen we submit, your notions OF
what adherence TO party implies are pecu-
liar. The recent partial successes of the Dem
ocratic party are mainly your work. fou
handed over Missouri to the Democrats; your
organs exulted over the defeat OF Schenck'
Morren, Sc, by Democrats; you have
taught Your disciples to dctcst the great ma
iority of the Republicans in Congress as mo-
nopolists and plundcrers; and those disciples
therefore vote the Democratic ticket. Your
nominal adherence to the Republican party can
do it no good so long IA you tell the feopie
that most Republicans are intent on subJccung
them to extortion and robbery. We are used 10
such imputatiOns from our open adverSarlcs'
and are little harmed by them; but, from men
protesting our political faith. they are more
damaging and offensive.
We think you should decide either to come
into the Republican party or stay out of 1t.
| You are not in it while you are plotting the
defeat of It's foremost representatives. who are
also its regular candidates for reelection.
When you talk of them as you have talked
this year of Gen. Schcnck, Messrs. Morrell,
Kelley, &C., those who believe in you Will
vote against them, even though not expressly
urged by you to do so, Better stand some
where.
The Republican party has suffered quite
enough from those who wear It's uniform IN
order to fire more effectively into its ranks.
IF you cannot support men of undoubted
ability and good character who are IT'S candi-
dates. your hearts are elsewhere, and your legs
should follow them. Choose your future posi-
ton for yourselves but let il be on one Sde or
tie other.
New-York tribune., 1870-12-13

Brooklyn is not supremely happy over the
resignation of her too liberal and ingenionsly
speculative Supervisors, for alas! her Alder
men survive. And these, with soul above
broOms and blankets, over which the Super
visOrs haggled and came to grief, have resolved
to steal on larger scale They have resolved,
very unwarrantably, that Brooklyn needs
more water, and have determined, very
naturally, perhaps, that she shall not
have it without paying roundly for it..
Hence they insist that a storage reservoir
shall be built in Hampstead Valley, and
have appropriated for the purchase of the
ground alone 81 100000, something over three
times as much as a private speculatOr in town
lots lately paid for an entire city site in the
| same locality. At this rate the private indi-
vidual will build his city, railway and all, at
less cost than the Brooklyn Aldermen, shoulC
they continue to be Democratic and persist ii
limitations of TammaDy, will build a useles
reservoir of small dimensions.

their dextcrity in knocking man OIL his horse
with n long pole. The Emperor might indeed,
have treated Queen Victoria to the spectacle
of q duel or so between few brace Oh ran
sian journalists, and complimented Prince Albert
by asking for display Of English proWess III {"
bore: but this would have been, perhaps
rather too much Of sacrifice OF modern pre-
iudice for the sake OF historical precedent.
The solution of the knotty problem was char
acteristic of the nation. In the ilfst place IL
was TO De considered that France was - ti'''
"mattar of courtesy accustomed 10 set eXaE-
"pIes rather than follow them" In the second
place it was Essential to recognize the woman
AS well as the queen" Therefore the En-
pcror might safely be az polite as he pleased,
and any amiable transgessioDs on the side OF
excess would be interpreted as tribute 70 the
sex, rather than recognition OF natlohai pre-
cedence. The royal guests should be " received
ain a manner altogether French Prince Al
hort should have "his rank enhanced to please
his wife. But it should be understood that
{" such infract0ns of etiquette when woman
sis concerned cannot be drawn INTO prcce-
"dents ;r-or, as Mr. Guppy said OF his matrl-
monial proposal to Miss SummersOn, the evil
lilies were to be "without prejudice" Having
thus solved his difficulties, let us hope that the
Emperor enjoyed himself, and that the Queen
was duly delighted with the altogether French
"mannerr of treating a royal visitor. We fear,
however, that Victorias satisfaction in think
ing of her trip across the channel will be a
little impaired when she learns how narrowly
she escaped finding nobody but Plon-Plon
waiting on the wharf.

TILE NEW PITY.

Nearly a year ago, there was gathering of
"Revenue Rcfomers in Washington, culmi-
mating in dinner with fluid notifications,
wherewith certain sympathizing editors and
correspondents rejoicingly refreshed them
selves. Having safely found their way thence
to their respective lodgings, these enlighteners
of the public proceeded to indite letters to their
several journals, revealing SO much as was
judged prudent and proper of the plans of cam
paign which had been matured and adopted
by their field-marshals. The more conspicuous
| Protectionists in Congress were Republicans,
of course and the Reformers proposed to in
augurate their crusade by reforming those out
of their seats and sending Reformers in their
d-Repubcans, if the Republicans could
be cajOled or bullied into nominating that
sort if not then Democrats. We promptly
copied and called attention to these bulletins
Of victories yet unwOn.
The programme thus agreed on has since
been carried out, to the extent of the planners
ability. They have, by the disfranchisement
of the crippled soldiers in the National Asylum
near Dayton, returned Lew. Campbell in place
of Gen. Schenck; they have exulted over the
defeat of Messrs. Morrell and Mccarthy by
other Protectionists; they have given over
Missouri to the Democrats beaten three or four
Republican Congressman in Illinois, thrown
Missouri into the hands of the Democrats; and
would have beaten Messrs. Kelley of Pa,
Bingham of Ohio, Ketcham of n. Y, and sew
eral other Republican PrOtectonsts if they
could but have pOled enough votes. On the
whole, they have reduced the Republican
strength in the next House by ten or a dozen
votes, and have joyful hope Of beating two
or three more Republicans by Democrats in
the States which have yet to choose their Rep
resentatives. That is not bad, for a beginning
The moment the November elections were
over, more ambitious programme was put
forth. The Chicago Tribune proclaimed, in
effect, that old parties and Old issues were
dead, and that a new organization was des-
tined to sweep the country. A Free Trade
Republican was to be chosen Speaker of the
next House by the votes Of all the Democrats
combined with the Revenue Reformers, upon
an understanding that tie Democrats should
have their say about the Committees. Tile
Erening Post, 81 LJuis Democrat, and chorus,
assailed Gen. Grants Administration more
openly and virulcntly than before-71o Post
eXulting over the incI cased Democratic (mainly
Rebel vote at the South, as proof Of the un-
popularity of the President. For time, the
cabal-haying eaten another and still better
dinner in company-fancied that the world lay
meekly at their feet.
Of late, change has come o'er the spirit Of
their dream. No ten Republicans elected to
the next House can be named who do not
scout the suggestion that they can ever be-

ize the House adversely to the great body Of
the Republicans. Nay, more not half the
Democrats are ready to vote for any man a.
Speaker who is not an ayowed Democrat.

TO him that the public willingly pays for snch
criticism as we aim at, while it can only De
induced to tolerate such as our correspondent
prefers by being deceived as TO its character
and impulses. As TO painters being driven out
of the profession by harsh criticism, we Insist
that those who are thus suppressed were never
artists, and chat transmitting them from daub-
eis into shoemakcrs, blacksmitlis, or wood
choppers, does signal service TO mankind
and even to themselves. But we do not choose

dubious assumptions pass unnotccd.

Whole District oOut5o


Here is growth in twenty years of more
than double Q0746 per cent? in the Mctropoli
tan district and population, in round num-
bers, of two millions. The vast overflow of
our city into the neighboring country has been
accelerated by new railroad and boat routes,
frequent and fast trains, and, more especially
IN New-Jersey, much cheaper rents and real
estate. And with all this accommodation the
cry here is urgent for more The rich and the
well-to-do are provided for; but what of the
half million of poor mechanics, crowded into
our noxious tenementsf They cannot go to
Paterson, and Stamford, and Isp-it is too far
from their work, takes too much time, and too
much money. We must have for them the
long-sought and constantly bafled fast
road from the Battery into Westches-
ter County; road that will make at
least fifteen miles an hour stopping, say,
at half n dozen stations, and running
forty trains day; one as late as one o'clock

Mr.. Butler insisted on dragging his personal
quarrel with Admiral Porter into the discus
sion of the bin to abolish the grade of Admiral
of the Navy. He thus managed to create a
brief sensation, but at the same time made some
what ridiculous debate which ought to have
been dignified and imperSonal. One would
suppose, from reading Mr.. Buffers remarks,
that his purpose was less to benefit the
country than to disappoint the man who had
crificisa1 him
