SPIRIT OF THE GERMAN PREss.-Aftcr

SPIRIT OF THE GERMAN PREss.-Aftcr
discussing the late platforms of the Dem
ocracy Of Ohio and the advice given to
the Democratic party by the Democrat
ic members Of Congress, the St. Louis
44n=cige, continues:
1t was the common mistake of all par
ties, that they preferred lawyers for all
public Offices, without considering
whether .hey were well informed in this
science or not. A large number Of ig-
norant pettifoggcrs are usually elected
to legislatures, without any ability ex-
cept verbosity, and with no other llnowl-
edge except that of formalitics. These
pettifoggers usually usurp the leadership
and this is the origin of that sensoloss
manufacturing Of laws whereby justice
and right become obliteratod and buried
under heap Of contradictory statutes
and illegal bills and ordinances. In lieu
of this class of leaders, the appropriate
chiefs of political loafcrs, thoroughly cd
ncated statesmen, jurists, journalists, au-
thors, business men, manufacturers and
fnanciers should be elected, in order to
enable Congress and the various legisla-
lures to perform the duty of law-making
ithintelligence and understanding. Il
is the appointment of this class of men
and the overthrow Of the government Of
political loafers and pettifoggers, whicl
we call reformation Of the head anc
members.

WmEAT.-Tho Knoxville Wing, in ar

WHARF.-The Knoxville Wing, in an
excellent article on wheat, says:
In SO far as East Tennessee is con-
cened, our Judgment, corroborated by
that of others, is, that We have pro-
duced not less than 100000 bushels.
This we think safe estimate. Leaving
off 900, 900 bushels for seed and for
domestic use, there would be the enor-
nous surplus Of 100000 bushels for
sale-more wheat perhaps, than has
been raised in this section for the last
twenty years. Favorable reports reach
us from Middle Tennessee, which induce
us to believe that the crop of that favor
ed region will touch 100000 bushels.
West Tennessee, being more exclusive
" devoted to the culture of cotton,
will fall behind Middle Tennessee; but
nevertheless, she has done better than
usual. Hence, take our State in the ag-
gregatc, and we have not for long time
produced so heavy a crop. Thus, TAX
ING our own country as sample, we
might infer that the United States
stands infinitely above former years in
her wheat product. How this is it is
impossible to say at present, for the
reason that the new crop is not yet esti-
mated, and cannot be for the next six
weeks.

THE GEORGIA BILL.

The present Constitution of Georgia
must determine the election question
under the last Georgia reconstruction
bill. Congress has left the matter Who'll
ly to the legal construction of that in
strument. OF course an election will be
held as no one doubts that it provides
for one the coming Fall;
The Georgia bill, as signed by the
President, provides that the State of
Georgia having complied with the recon
struction acts, and the 14th and 18th
amendments having been ratified in
good faith by lcga! Legislature of said
State, it is hereby declared that Georgia
is entitled to representation in the Con-
grcss Of the United States bat nothing
in this act contained shall be construed
to deprive the people of Georgia of the
right to an election Of members of the
General Assembly of said State, as pro-
vidcd for in the Constitution thereof, and
nothing in this or any other act of Con-
gross shall be construed to affect the
term to which any officer has been APP
pointed, or any member of the General
Assembly elected as prescribed by the
Constitution of Georgia.

THE EUROPEAN WAR.

The New York Sun, of the 9th, says
'Napoleon means war, and the French
people seem to mean it too. He has
succeeded in hurrying up events SO as
to make the preservation of peace well
nigh impossible. How far Prussia is to-
day in the @unprcpared position which
Austria occupied before Sadowa, can on
ly be detained by the progress of hos
Titles; but the truth on this point will
doubtless soon be revealed. But when
the war is once begun, nothing can him
der it from becoming great war. Al
the outset, it will probably be confined
to France and Prussia, with Spain as the
nominal ally of the one, and the proba
bic victim Of the other; but if the strug-
gle is not at once decided, will it be pos
sible for Austria, Italy, Russia and Eng
land TO avoid taking part?"
From the Herald, of the sam, date,
we copy the following;
"The late improvements in small
arms and artillery will render henccfor-
ward the meeting of hostile armies more
deadly than heretofore, while railways
will operate to bring greater armies face
to face. Thus, in both these elements
of concentration and destructivencss,
the European war that is to come will
overshadow the bloodicst campaigns Of
the First Napoleon. The war among
the iron-clads on the water will proba-
bly, be in the same proportion territically
destructive. Inland fortresscs will, as
defensive positions, be of less value than
heretofore, while our modern American
system Of strong defensive earthworks
at every encampmcnt will have to be
adopted by the army on the offensive as
well as th'army on the defensive. Those
lessons Of modern war, resulting from
the destructiveness of modern weapons,
will soon be taught to both sides in the
event of a war between France and
Prussia; and so our American system OF
earth-worlls may spoil the incest calcu-
lations of Napoleon. They may pro-
long the war, which he expects to make
short one, into a long onc-so long as
to change and enlarge beyond calcula
ton all the original conditions of the
contest"
The Marietta journal. [volume] (Marietta, Ga.) 1866-1909, 1870-07-22

THE secret of advertising is not yet
discovered by all who advertise. A
good deal of money and space is wasted
in clumsy announcements, which no.
body reads, heavy standing placards,
which no more stimulate purchasers
than the names on signs, Much money
is also wasted in circulars, which are
thrown into entries and down cellar
ways and always received with CON
tempt, or in so-callcd advertising sheets
which nobody reads. There is no
medium which comes into such close
contact with the people as the news
paper and if advertisers only under
Stood their business they could make
their portion as interesting as any other
part Of it. In many Of the German pa
pers advertising is carried on to an ex-
tent of which we have no idea. The
newspaper is the real exchange. BY
erybody goes to it with all his wants,
and almost all his woes. The consc-
quencc is that the sheets are as livel y as
neighborhood gossip, and often the pa
ges devoted to advertising arc tho best
part of the paper; and the papers are
read through. The announcements are
always short, always "transiont," and
one looks at them in the morning to see
what the world has to offer him that
day by way Of business or amusement.
Perhaps his next door ncighbor has a
rare piece Of china or choice ongra-
wing to sell, or he would like to get an
odd number of some serial, which you
happen to have; somebody. somewhere,
announces something that interests you,
and so life is made more endurable,
trade is quickcned, and wants are sup
piled. We look to see Il moro general
use of the advertising columns OF news
papers in this country for all the wants
and queries of lite.-HmUord Cowant.
