The Ncw Hampshire Election.

The partial victory which the Democrats
Of New Hampshire achieved in March, has
been finally consummated in the Legislature,
after u most exciting contest, by means Of
coalescing with the handful of Labor Re
formers, so.callcd. WIN. II. Cove, lifelong
antislavory mau, aud never Democrat, has
been chosen Speaker, and the minor offices
divided between the contracting parties. Tn
der this arrangement, Mr.. Weston was chosen
Governor on Saturday last, by majority Of
eight over Pike, the Republican candidate.
The Senate vacancies were filed by the
choice of Daniel Marcy Of Portsmouth, for
merly Democratic member Of Congress in
the first district, aud Alyah Smith, Republi-
can, who will act with the Democrats, in the
tenth district. This gives the Democrats two
majority in the Senate and in the House
when all the members are present, there viii
be tie. Legislation will 50 on slowly uu'
der these circumstances, but New Hampshire
will get new laws enough no doubt
The very day after the election, Republic
cans throughout the country, supposing they
were defeated, accepted the result philosoph
ieally and turned to consider what benefits
there might be in the repulsc. We saw sucl
benefits, and they were realized in the Con
necticut victory. And now that the defeat Il
established, we have no notion of changin.
the opinion then expressed The Democrat
have barely succeeded through the help o
one or two renegades, and this small Republi
eau failure will be the means of winning
great Republican victory next year

DIVIDE AND CoNQuER. 1T used to be
said that the Democratic party achieved its
national victories by acting on the principle
suggested by Martin Van Buren,, "of carry
ing the North by party machinery and the
South by yielding to all its demands" JEFF
Davis seems to be lying low for recurrence
Of these good old times In his late speech
at Atlanta, Georgia, he says:-
The South cannot hasten the day Of her
dellyerance BIZ attempting to assume leading
part in the politics Of this country to-day. Let
her people quietly and earnestly devote themselves
to the work of improving and building up their
material prosperity, leaving those who have the
power 70 settle these questions among themselves,
simply saying 10 them, We know our rights
know they are invaded, and then wait patiently
until We see them divided ana at issue with
themselves, and then Join The party and support
the candidate and the platform that promises a
restoration Of constitutional liberty. 1t Is then
that you will hold the balance Of political power
IN your own hands, and it is then that all your
rights will once more be restorednnd guaranteed

The American Missionary Association.

The great problem, what 90 do with the
negro after he was freed, demanded the high
est wisdom lor IT,. solution And not only
wisdom but the highest Christian bencyo-
lonce Wien statesmen were at their wits
end TO know how to act and government
found i'd, costly and cumbersome machinery
of Froelmaus Bureau too uuwieldy toI
answer fully the purpose for which it was de-
signed, then the American Missionary Assoc
citation stepped into the work, and has carried
it forward with the most heroic devotion,
against cnu,ity at the South and lukewarm
friendship at the North until at last daylgh
shines through the dark clouds. The Assoc
citation was born quarter Of a century ago.
1t was the offspring of the agitation for the
abolition of slavery among The churches, aud
it was fit that it should carry out to prae-
teal result the emancipation which was SO
largely due to its teachings. Without going
into detail Of its work previous to the war
we briefly refer to its struggles in Africa in
mission work among the negroes its labors
among the Indians Of the Northwest and
its assumption Of missionary labor in Siam
and the Sandwich Islands These are all the
record of devoted labor But we more par.
ticuarly call attention to the work Of the
Association since the breaking out of the
war Of the rebellion. In helping the slaves
through the difficulties lying between the
dark land OF slavery aud the happy regions

~ Reports received from nearly every
portion Of Minnesota indicate that the pres
ent will be a most successful year for agricul-
turists in that State. With a largely in-
creased area Of acreage devoted to the princi-
pal grains, Judging from the present favorable
prospects, the yield, unless some disaster should
intervene, will far exceed that Of any pre-.
yious year 1t is estimated that the wheat
crop Of the State will reach fully twenty-five
millions of bushels, the oat crop fifteen mill
lions, corn ten millions, aud the barley crop
two millions bushels. Upwards of $4,000
acres are occupied by the four crops, consider
ably more than half of which are in wheat.

--Goyernor Orr testified before the Ku-
Klux Committee the other day, three hours
being occupied in taking his evidence. He
denied any personal knowledge of the Ku-
Klux organization in his own State, and did
not believe it existed there lie was Of opin-
ion, however, that it does exist in some of the
counties Of North Carolina, and that it is
directed mainly against the coored voters,
with the object Of preventing them from ex-
ercising the right of suffrage in the coming
Presidential election. His testimony was
very strong in condemnation of the South
Carolina Legislature, which he charged with
extravaganza and corruption but he ex-
pressed his belief that the whites were re-
sponsble for the incompetency Of their rulers,
owing to the fact that they refused to take
part in the elections at the outset Of recon-
siruotion aud because of their subsequent eff
forts to corrupt the oolorod voters
