Real Rank and Snobbery.

A friend whe has been spending few
days at Long Branch, writes in astonish-
ment mot admiration) at the display at
that watering place. The turnouts are
mighty to behold. Jim Fisk courses up
and down in his chariot and six horses,
rolling along the sounding shore as if he
were lord of both land and sea. Helm
bold, the Buchu man, we believe, is also
there in his glory. To be sure, the Pres
ident of the United States rides about in
a modest carriage, but lie makes no show
at all alongside Of these magnificent rail-
road spectators and medicine men. The
writer says tina. nothing less than a
four-in-hand attracts any attention.
While reading this glowing descrip-
ton, we could but contrast the scene at
Long Branch with the modest picture
given of certain royal parsonage who
at this moment attracts tue attention of
of the whole world. 4 correspondent of
one Of our city papers, writing from Ber-
lin few weeks since, before the outbreak
of the war, said he had just had good
to see King William, as he
came TO call on some foreign prince stay
ing at the hotel. His Majesty came in
Z or--Eorse cab, wih no attendant Int q
single aid, ,cho sat On the Dor lsih The
7rjrer.' The King jumped out of the
,ab, aud ran up the steps like young
man. with no pretcnsion at all to dignity.
So it is all over the world. Men of the
highest rank are above pretension, sim
pie in manners, and averse to display,
while it is the Adventures, the mounte-
banks, ard the showmcn, who are eager
o paaadc their wealth. and to make peo-
pic stare by their vulgar ostentation-

The Democrats Propose to pay Rebel
ClnimS

Down in Maine one month ago. Speaker
Blaine. of the Lower House Of Congress
expressed himself as follows:
One of the most insidious and danger
ous and probable modes Of destroying the
National credit under Democratic rule
would be the payment or attempted pay
ment from the National Treasury of all
Southern claimants for losses inflicted by
the war. This is not an inference
it is boldly avowed by leading Democrats
in both branches of Congress. In April
last. during the pendency of a bill in the
Senate introduced by Mr. Howe, of Wis
conein, to pay "loyaf citizens for quarter
master and commissary stores taken dur
ing the rebellion" Democratic Senator,
Mr. McCreery. moved to strike out the
word loyal" and supported his motion
by an earnest speech. On the 2lst of
May, Mr.. Knott, of Kentucky, an able,
frank. aud fearless gentleman, one of the
leaders on the Democratic side of the
House. speaking on this question, used
the following language:
But, cir, this is not all, nor half ]
have been speaking Of only 20 much of
our debt as We have given our notes for.
Besides this we owe. at the very lowest
calculation, S3 OoO,OOO,OOO; not to the
bloated bond holder, of whom we have
heard so much, but to class of our peo-
pie to whom of all others we are under
the most sacred obligation to pay. We
owe it to the poor, whose horses and cat
tie and sheep and hogs and corn and
wheat. and everything else, were taken
from them to sustain your armies in the
field" ..r.
If the Union army had the right to
make war for the maintenance Of Gov
ernmcnt, it had the right to forage on
the enemy hut the Democratic pro-
position now is. that every rebel in the
South shall be paid for what he lost dur
ing the war, and we have leading Dem
ocrat's authority for saying that the
amount required will be three thousand
millions of dollars. ,.ai.

T NEwspAPEs CHANGE

IMPORTANT NEWSPAPER GRANGE
The Hearth and Home finely illustrat-
ed family journal of a high character,
hitherto issued by Messrs. Pettengill,
Bates & Co., has been purchased by
Messrs. Orange Judd & Co.. of 235
Broadway, New York, the well-knowu
publishers of the american Agricultu1ist.
Messrs. S. NJ. Pettengill & Co, whose
great Advertising Agency, established in
1S49, is one of the largest and most repu-
table in the world, find that their exten-
sive business requires their exclusive al
tention, and they therefore transfer the
H,arth and Home to the new Publishers
whose long experience and abundant ia
cilities will enable them not only to main-
tain the past high character of the paper
but to add materially to its value. The
new Publishers also announce reduction
of the terms to SO per year. The change
will no. at all affect the Ameridn AJri-
culturist, which will continue on indepen-
IDENTIFY as heretofore. The Illustrations
and reading matter Of the two Journals
will be entirely different. Either of the
journals will be furnished from now to
the end of 1871 Us months), at the year
ly subscription rate, viz : the Weekly

Wilson and Moods.

To this Senatorial District more stten
ton i. now directed than has ever befor
teen extended 10 it, and more, perhaps
than will he gwen j; within many year
40 come. The State Senate Is so nearl J
Democratic that with the loss Of = fen
Republican Senators it will become en-
.irely Democratic. The election 0f twC
Democrats to the Senate, even if the Re
publicans had strong working force
there. would be a matter Of regref 70 the
Republican party. The election of two
Democrats, under tie present - cxtrsor,
dinary" state of political affairs, would
well nigh prove itself a disas.e, to the
Republican cause in the State, and would
fall with fearful effect upon the politics OF
the nation. The Republican party in
this District is strong enough 10 send to
the Senate both Mr. Wilson and Mr..
Woods, and it will do it. llotwifhstand-
ing the predictions of the Democracy
that they at least expect to carry Craw-
ford through. This prediction, or proph-
ecy, in favor of Crawford is not based on
any innate or natural ability that the
Democrats have for foretelling events.
but is based upon that wondrous system
of rules commonly known under the tile
of the Democratic Arithmetic Their
predictions cannot be realized they end
in the puffs of bad breath that announce
them. We believe that both Woods and
Wilson will be elected for we know iha:
the party is growing alive to the impor
tance of the questions involved in the
election this fall; and it is source CT
congratulation, not alone to the party Of
this District, but to the party of the
whole State, that the District has pre-
sented such able and worthy men for the
crisis that is upon us. We can hold up
our head in the consciousness that Viii
son and Woods are men who will be
equal to the peculiar situation in which
the politics of the times has placed them.
We can rest assured that they will ably
assist in the re-districting of the State.
This matter of apportionment is of the
highest Importance 10 the party. 1t is
believed, too, that the next Legislature
will be strongly urged to call State
Convention to revise the State Constitu-
ton. This is also a matter of impor-
tance to the people of the State, and the
men to whose consideration these ques-
tons are submitted should be intelligent,
and worthy in every other respect. Viii
son and Woods have the ability, the in
segrity. in word every qualification that
is necessary to render satisfaction to the
party, and. under the circumstances of
the times. they will prove themselves an
honor 10 the district and credit to the
State

FANNY FERN tells the following story
of her fret meeting with Horace Gree
ley. He had agreed to take tea at her
house, and Mr. Parton gave hes special
injunction to have some stale bread on
the table, as Mr.. Greeley, he said, never
touched hot biscuit. This was accord
ingly done, and when the great editor
sat down to supper, large supply of
dry bread was placed close to his place.
He, however, was not content with this,
but, peering across the table in bis near
sighted way at the biscuit opposite, he
stretched out his arm and proceeded to
help himself, and actually made his meal
of them. Mrs. Parton expressed her
surprise at this. and said: why, Mr..
Greeley, read the TriJxne for so long a
time that thought you aboninated hot
bread" danny replied the sage Hor-
ace, helping himself to another biscuit,
'do you always practice what you preach?
I'm sure l don't"

to vote part, at least, of their Senatorial

like to have large vote here at home"

can be personal friends of DR.. Crawford
and not be under any obligation, what
ever, on that account, to vote for him.
We are personally friendly to DR.. Craw.

because we intend to vote for another for
State Senate. When we take sick we
send for him; We follow his advice as
near as we can to the letter. take his
pills. his powders, and all other medicine
that he leaves us. Because he gives us
medical attendance when we are "sick,"
because we have confidence in him as
physician, it does not follow that We
should, on that account, take his doses of
politics. and vote to place him in the
State Senate. Don't endanger the State
politics by voting for either Crawford or
