Tue Democratic party, while II accepts
Of the fact that the ballot has been placed
in the hands Of the colored men, and ac-
cepts of the fact that it shall not be taken
from them will not lose sight Of the fact
that the ballot has not vet been restored to
the white men Of the South 10 the men
who pay the taxes, and whose intelligent
influence is indispensable to the niainte
nance Of free, enlightened government in
those States We demand that all men
shall be equal under and before the law
should have no unmeaning application. 1t
should be extended TO whites as well as
blacks-that suffrage shall in reality be
universal, and not partial. We deny that
all there is Of human rights attaches to the
negro Suffrage is not to be made q priv
ilege of race. If it belongs &c the South
ern blackmen it belongs to the South
ern white men. Putting the ballot IN the
hands of the Southern black and denying it
to the Southern white is not only unjust
and anti-demoeratic but an exhibition Of par
tisan hypocrisy unbecoming of even the
radical party. The white men of the South
are denied the ballot because they will not
vote the radical ticket. The negroes are
given it because they viii vote the radical
ticket That is the kind Of eyen-handed
justice the Radical party INDUCES in.
While clamoring about the inalienable right
of every man to the ballot, it puts it in the
hands of the negro and denies it to the
white man; and this it does wholly from
party considerations. 1t would deny the
ballet TO the negro as readily as it does to
the white man was it not that ne votes the
radical ticket. 1t is not the right of the
negro to the ballot that it regards with in
terest, but the aid the negro vote will give
the radical party.-Derott Free Press.

Value OF the Sunflolyer Plant.

Attention is called by the editor of the
Journal Of 1RpIied Science to the great
value Of the suntlower plant in various
economical applications. According to
this article, the sunfower can be cultivated
very readily, an acre Of land sustaining
$1,000 plants at twelve inches distant from
each other. The flowers are very attract
i've to bees and furnish great amount of
honey. The average production of seeds
may be estimated at fifty bushels to the
acre, yielding fifty gallons of OIL This is
said to be equal to olive oil for table use,
and is well adapted to burning in lamps,
soap-making, and painting. The rcfus, Of
the above quantity Of seed will produce
1,2o0 pounds of oil-cake, aud the stalks
may be either burnt TO furnish potash, or
when treated like fax, may be made to
yield fibre as soft as silk, and in large
quantity.

90
Feet SUGAR in Wisconsin.

\ beet-sugar nanufactory was estab-
lished last year in Black Hawk Valley, II
miles from Sank City, in Sank County,
Wisconsin, by thirty-four German farmers,
upon the cooperative principle. They
planted $50 acres III roots, onc-siXth OF
which failed through drought; the remain
der averaged about ten tons per acre. The
manufacturing operations Of the company
were embarrassed by a variety Of causes,
prominent among which was the delay in
receiving machinery from Europe, caused
by the Franco-P russian war. The manu-
facturc was not commenced till the middle
of February, when it was found impossible
to work up the entire crop, the larger por-
ton of which was fed to stock Under all
these disadvantages some 10000 pounds of
sugar were made and marketed at an aver
age rate of ten cents per pound, including
all grades. The coming year at least 200
acres will be cultivated with sugar beet,
and operations will be gradually extended
The machinery in use was partly imported
from Europe, and partly from Fond du
Lac, Wisconsin, and Chatsworth, Illinois.
1t cost $50, 900, and the building $4,000.
The capital of the company is limited. Its
distance from machine shops for repairing
and the necessity Of wagoning twelve miles
the sugar product and some Of the mate
rial used in its manufacture, are draw backs
to the enterprise; but, under the efficient
management of Mr.. Wiffcrling, the Super
intcndent, the company is sanguinc of sue
cess, both in making good sugar and in
realizing n fair profit upon tho investment

New LONDON tJuIy % Colresp9ndsnce Of ths MHwau-
kee sentfeel
As the largest town on the Wolf River,
and the head of navigation On that stream,
New London is somewhat noted. To reach
it, passengers take steamer either at
Oshkosh or Winneconne in the morning,
and reach the destination at o'clock in
the afternoon, provided large amount of
logs on the river do not impede the passage
of the boat The river becomes very SER
pentine as it is assembled, and at New Lon
don is narrow. The water is clear and the
current moderately swift. On ascending
to New London, the pine timber region is
not reached, bot the dense forests of the
hard woods extend down to the river banks.
New London is on both sides of the river,
the business predominating on the north
side, a bridge spanning the stream. 1t has
a village organization, and a population of
l,5Q0. The chief source Of business Is
supplies to those engaged in lumber opera
tons, this being the nearest trading post to
the pineries There is, however, some
well settled farming country contributary
TO the place, atfording considerable trade.
The land, when cleared Of its native growth
of oaks. is said to be rich and strong, pro
dueing all kinds of crops, including corn Of
the hard variety. And what may be con-
sidered singular in this Northern climate,
cherry, plum, pear and apple trees of the
harder kind grow thrifty and produce
abundant and fully maturcd fruits.
This being a point near the supply of
hard timber, some manufacturing is done
here. There is a staye factory that makes
5000 of tight and $4,000 Of dry barrel
u ~ ]
planning mill and deor, sash, and bind
factory, a large rannory, two grist mills, a
lumber mill, owned by Hale / Springstead
that will cut this season 100000 feet Of
lumber. This mill also makes shingles.
There are two other mills that make lumber
and shingles but are not in operation this
season.
New london is fully up with the times
in railroad expectations. Two roads are
pointing to her one from Manitowoc, and
the other from Green Bay. Liking to have
both, but if they can have only one, the
people are not unanimous upon the ques-
ton Of which viii suit them best, but will
be satisfied with either. Considering that
this is the central place Of business on the
Wolf River and for this section Of country,
it seems evident that these roads, aiming
further north and west, and whose lines
must necessarily pass near it, will make
New London an objective point. Therefore,
patience AMI timely subsidy will surely
bring here q railroad, and that at no very
distant day.
Upon the whole, New London is thirty
ing place, the business men have the out
side look of being in easy circumstances,
the stocks of goods in the stores are large
for a place so young and remote, and its fu-
ture prospects are evidently promising.
This is undoubtedly a very hea thy local.
ty the inhabitants are social and friendly,
and good readers Of newspapers.

Ripe Revenge.

The following amusing aneclote is told
in the recently published Life Of Walter
Savage Lander Landor writes: "This
amusing book" (Mr. IIalliburton's cold

pened inthe life Of an old acquaintance Of
mine-Sir Edwin Stanhope, who inherited
the Duchess of Norf0lk's estate at Home
Lacy. lie got drunk at Boston, when he
was lieutenant, just before the American
war. The select men Of that puritanical
port had him arrested thereon, and SEN
fenced to be logged. Nine years afterward
he had command Of frigatc on the same
coast. Never was there Il more polite man
or one who looked more gentle. lie called
on the select men formerly his judges, COM
plimented them on the happy termination
of hostilities, and himself ON becoming a re-
formed man, entirely through their instru-
mentality. He wished that persons Of their
dignity would condescend to honor him on
board his vessel by their company to dinner,
and in that case he should be able to
express his gratitude but incompletly. They
accepted his invitation. lie received them
most courteously; he treated them most
splendidly; and a day of much enjoyment
was passed. As the time approached for
their departure, a scrvent entered the cabin
and whispered to the Custos, the leader of
the select, that gentleman above desires
urgently to speak to him. As soon as the
justice appeared on deck, he was seized,
stripped, tied up, and had q dozen lashes
from the boatswain. Each of the others
were scverally summoned and similarly pun
ishcd; after which thew were set ashore,
the anchor lifted, and the vessel put under
way for England. Stanhope was repre-
manded and deprived Of his ship as soon as
the incident became known, and only by
great interest was hcpcrmitted to continue
in the service. lie died an admiral, not
many years ago.

One beautiful trait of our humanity is
the tenderness with which we cherish the

and his manliness. The child stands be-

as he might have been had all God put in

uuventilated, and convcyances destitute OF
air, should give more attention to this sub
ject of pure air for the people. And, if 1t
can be done in no other way, the strong
arm of the law should interfere, in at least
so much that all boats and ships for public
conveyance, and any building used for any
purpose whatever, wherein mankind is to
live or to be for any length Of time, should
receive proper ventilation. If this were
done, our bills of mortality would largely
decrease, and the universal race become
wealthier, happier, and wiser than at the

A MAJORITY of the Senate, approaching
unanimity, has ratified the treaty of WASH
ington without amendment. There were
Senators who would have preferred DIFF
ferent settlement of some points which are
treated by the Commission. These points
were touched upon in executive session,
and some of the most distinguished SEN
ators presented their views in support of
the several amendments proposed. But
it was decided-and, 10 the opinion Of the
Tribune wisely-that it was not prudent
to risk the possible defeat of the measure
for the sake Of predetermined improve
meut. The work of the American Gov
ernment will be at once completed by the
signature of the President to the treaty,
and the ratification by the Queen of Great
Britain will speedily follow.
1t is to be hoped that the sober second
thought of our Northern neighbors will
induce them to accept the accomplished
fact, and to pass the requisite legislation to
carry the provisions of the treaty into eff
feet. The most cheering and benefcent
work of modern diplomacy may now be
looked upon as accomplished, and the con-
duct of both commissions, both govern
ments, and, with most uncomfortable ex-
ceptions, the Senate and the press of our
country, has been of a character which
proves how practicable matter is peace
on earth to men of good will.--N Z. I1i-

BEATEN outside the walls, driven from
the ramparts, and broken at Montmartre,
the monster Of the Paris Commune rears
it, mutinous front again before Bellevlle,
and still defes the government. Slowly
retreating from the heart of the city, the
fanatical insurgents defend every street
leading to their stronghold in the eastern
suburbs, and lay waste with fire those ave-
nues which they are compelled to abandon
The fighting at the barricades in the streets
leading to Belleville has been far more Sc
we're than any heretofore witnessed during
the siege, and the consequences have been
terrible, both in life and property. The
contest is one which cannot be long sus.
tanned. Against the three several columns
of Mcmahon the insurgents must give way
eventually, but mob inspired as this o.
Paris is by the desperation of their cause
and the fear of punishment will spread
ruin and desolation with frightful rapidity
A day or two more of this desultory fight
ing must subdue them, but In that tint
half of Paris may be made burning
waste. ss

The incorporation Of the Prison Reform
Association of New York gives direction
and impetus to a reformation whose im-
portance to society cannot very well be
calculated or over-estimated. 1t is gene
rally supposed to benefit the prisoners only;
but sinco nine-tenths of the confined
criminals at sometime return to live in or
prey upon society, their intellectual and
moral care, while in prison, is considera-
ton of interest to the general public as
we'll as to themselves. This is an inspir-
ing idea of the association, and the prin-
ciple which more than any other commends
its work to the public. This may appear
selfish, but it is nevertheless true, and very
natural that it should be true. The asso-
citation named has made arrangements for
holding 40 International Congress al
which representatives from every civilized
government will be present In such dis
cussions as will naturally occupy the at
tention of body thus composed, the
Reform cannot fail to find advancement.
