Weather Report.

WASHINGTON, July II.
The barometer has varied considerably
en- the California coast and fallen slightly
at the Rocky Mountain stations and in
the northwest; it has risen but little from
Mississippi eastward, and still falling in
New England, the temperature has risen
quite high on Lake Superior, and to near
ly the same extent from Northern Ohio to
Southern Missouri. Westerly winds are
now reported west of Michigan and have
also prevailed during the day on the gulf
coast with threatening weather In North
ern Florida, rain has fallen very generally
from the Ohio River to the middle and
east Atlantic coast, but cloudy and clear
ing weather have prevailed over that re-
gion this afternoon.

PROBABILITIES.

Low barometer with fresh winds from
the south and southwest will continued on
upper lakes, local rain storm is probably
advancing northward in Western Tennes-
see, and light rains is probable for tonight
or Thursday from Florida to South Caro-
lima. Partially cloudy and clear weather
will probably continue in the Middle and
Eastern states.

Look Out for Spies !

We clip the following from the Macon
(Ga.) Telegraph, which we think wise
and timely advice. The very existence
of the Radical power depends upon riots
in the South. Loose action and un-
guarded words will be construed into Il
rebellious spirit:
Let our people take warning, then.
Let them curb their tongues and re-
strain their hands. Upon no proVOca-
ton, short ofintolerable insult, let them
resort to violence. The cote ofthe South
ne,est be co,oted iu 1872 for the Demo-
cratic candidate. Violence is what
Grant wishes, in order that he may de-
cree that it shat not he cast. See to it
that he is disappointed, remembering,
always, that a good memory is as Valu-
able an adjunct of peoples as of indivi-
duals, when the time comes for right
ing wrongs. "Patience and shuttle the
cards. is about the best motto the
South can adopt under present circum-
stances.
| Looking to the same point, we take
the following from the Livingston
(Ala.) Journal:
We have good reason to believe that
the southern States are at this time
overrun by hi,ed sloies--men of insinua-
ting address, who worm themselves
into the confidence of the unsuspecting
charged with the duty of ferreting
out and collecting evidence of hostility
to the u. S. Government.
We hope our people will be calm and
patient, looking to our triumph in 1872
when, by force of public opinion, the
South viii be freed from all intruders
and the colored race made to see theil
error and come back to their only hope
of safety.
Beware of strangers who are prOwl-
ing over this Southern country under q
thousand different callings! You never
saw one who was not a friend to the
South. Many of them are, in fact,
friends but many of them, again, are
hired to be our friends, whose business
it is to make out a long list of lies and
swear to them. Let the familiarity OF
such stragglers always breed contempt,
and let that contempt be demonstrated
by a spirit of lofty indignation that, OF
a right, belongs to Southern ladies and
gentlemen

The Young Democracy.

1t must not be forgotten by those of
It's who shared in the Democratic battles
of the past, that since the last national
victory was won in 1856, many thou
sands of young, active and enthusiastic
men have passed the threshold of mi
nOrity, to fight with us the battles of
the future. Each successive year has
added vigorous reinfOrcementS to the
party, trained indeed to the same po-
litical faith, but not to the same polit-
zeal questions, that then agitated the
country. They have graduated from
the same timc-hOnored schools, but
under somewhat varying circumstances
from those which surrounded their pre-
dcccSSOrS, and those who are now in
clincd to hesitate upon full commit
nfent to the changed condition of pub
lie affairs, should bear in mind that
some Difference is due to the young men
of the country who are rallying to our
standard for the great contest Of the
coming year. Theirs has been Il differ
ent experience from that of the old
Democratic school. They have had nc
ancient associations broken up-they
wear the medals ofno by-gone victories
to them, the questions that were de-
termincd by their fathers in other days
possess indeed traditional inspiration,
but the issues that nerve them to action
are only those coming under their inn
mediate cognizancc. They live and
move in the present, and grasp the tl,l-
ties that press upon them on every
hand, without reVerting to the past for
methods or material of warfare.
1t Is not too much to say of this
strong, resolntc arm, that it is to bear,
in no small proportion, the brunt of the
campaign before us ; nor is it in any
wise derogotory to the age and wisdom
of the party to credit the young De
mocracy with a bold, clear-hcahcd con-
ccptiOn of the crisis. They have been
reared to manhood during moro than u
decade of Radical rule. They have
been brought in direct contact with its
every form of miSgoHernment. Their
opinions have been moulded and
strengthened in successive defeats
they have no retrospect of victory with
which to create regretful diversion of
their energies. Their Judgments are
wholly untrammelcd by the political
complications of earlier days. They
had no share in the memorable strug-
giles that came to an end in 1886. Born
of Democratic lineage, but in II new era,
educated to Democratic principles, but
tiit1l liz" IlltStS VI lllclE stnpllCsttloH,
they enter the arena knowing but one
party, and that the party in power
recognizing but one issue, and that the
necessity of rescuing the country from
the ruinous grasp of Radicalism. Let
it not be said of this class of men that
they are too fast, or that there is RASH
ness in their resolution. None know
better than they the work that needs to
be done, and none will do their share
of the work with 4 nobler or more dis
interested patriotism ~. IouiS Times.

The friends of New Orleans will be
happy to know that the floods are re-
ceding, and that the city will soon be
herself again. The suffering thousands
have been promptly relieved by the
noble spirits of the city and friends out
side. Provisions have been gathered
and distributed by the thousands to all
those who demanded immediate atten-
ton. In the hour of suffering, danger
and peril the people of New Orleans
have no equals in the world. They
scatter money and material profuscly,
and endanger life freely to rescue the
humblest from danger and pain. This
is a noble spirit, and should be cNer-
cised not only in emergencies like the
one now in the city, but should arouse
that people to such action as will pro-
tect themselves from future floods.

L" ParSOn Conway"
gelltlcIll'

The New Orleans papers for few
! days have furnished their readers almost
daily with one or more articles each
about the usurpations, absurdities and
rascally doings of the individual known
as ParsOn Conway, our State Superin-
tendent of Education. We know of no
man upon the face of Gods green earth
so unworthy of even one such notice as
is Superintendent Conway, the object
of the aforesaid rebukes and denuncia-
tiOns of the New Orleans press. He is
not only insensibIe to every sort and
degree of insult and utterly Indifferent
to the severest invective, but he even
takes pleasure in being the object OF
such manifestations of Southern anger
and "rebel' detestation. He longs to
wear the crown of Il martyr to Southern
displeasure. Like the heathen Chinee
who was willing to sell his life for one
hundred dollars, Conway would "die
and go to help if he believed he could
secure Il perpetual claim to monthly
denunciation by Southern newspapers.
iaginous cur feeds upon, and why,
therefore, crafty his appetite: What
he purposes doing with the public
schools, he will unquestionably do, un-
less restrained by Il fear Of force, or the
dire calamity of losing the field where
in he is now displaying his assinine
parts and where is the use, to the dis
gust of decent people, of sounding in
their ears day by day the offensive cog
nomen of this disgusting marplot, par
ticularly when that is just what the
filthy creature Graves" We beg of oul
contemporaries Il truce of Conway litera-
ture. Ifa man is to be impaied on their
pen nibs, let him have some decency,
or some little claims to be written down
rs good as an ass.

Horace Greeley had II grand rccep-
ton by one wing of the Radical party
upon his return to New York. The
telegraph reports portion of Greelcy's
remarks as follows:
He reasserted his intention to do his
duty, even if it involved the White
House responsibility. He spoke in Sc
we're terms of the l<u-Nlux, which, he
said, the Government ought to exter-
pate ut once and forever, and in sever
er and more sarcastic condemnation of
the theiving carpet-baggerS, who plum
der and prey upon negroes and the
poor whites, while pretending to be
anxious for the education and salvation
of their souls.
Horace has taken Il good picture of
the carpet-baggcr, and is candid enough
to expose it to public view.

Because W. NJ. Tweed, of New York ),
has grown rich while in public office,
all the Radical papers in tn" Union are

there are carpet-ba~gcrS, who are mere

alongside of Tweed, who have stolen
colossal fortunes, and are still stealing,
