NEW Hopes.

The late elections in France have GER
tainly surprised the world and betoken
in great degree among all classes
"the lines "a desire stable republic.
The Assembly has now unquestionably
a republican majority. The most mi
raculous changes have taken place
among the peasantry. The man at Chi
seihurst must look with dependency at
the returns Of the country elections and
doubt very much i the magic Of his dis
tinguished name can longer-as in days
gone by-sway the millions Of rustics
that were always ready at nod to de-
iend the Napoleonic dynasty. The third
Napoleon, Ike his uncle, under the pre-
tense OF giving the people Of France .
representative government had estab-
lished q complete despotism, and far
from looking to the cities for votes, car
ried the country elections b. storm, gain
ing in every instance the almost unani-
nous support Of the ignorant and delud-
peasantry. But taught by often repeat
ed lessons that wars are Of no benefit to
them, and the same selfish ambition that
occupied the heart Of the hero of Aus
tcrlitz and an hundred other bloody bat
ties, clings to the natures ofhis descend
ents, they long for a government that
will insure to them the often promised
peace and security they so much desire
but have never obtained. The mystic
power of imperialism no longer will de-
lude them, for the benefits Of republican
ism are now seen by them, and mayhap
their devotion to the flag Of a republic
will be attested with greater ardor and
enthusiasm, and with far more stability,
than that of e" the old guard" to the un-
conquerable eagles and their idolized
leader.
France, ridden of some of her factious
spirits, may yet ascend to a higher plain
among the governments Of the earth
than she ever occupied before. Her pros
poets are Frightening every day, and she
may soon commence the upward career
that all most heartily desire for her.

A BRIDGE WANTED AND NEEDGD.

Persons acquitted with the territory OF
Saline county will remember that several
sections OF the most fertile land In the
county lie north of the Solomon river.
That portion OF the county is very thick
settled with hard working and well-to-
do farmers, who cotribste largely oftheir
earnings towards paying the taxes OF our
county. These men have repeatedly, for
severaly years past, demanded that they
should have bridge across the Solomon
and at one election the question Of voting
bonds for building Il bridge was submit
ted to u vote, but was defeated. These
men are DESTROYS Of traiing at Salina,
but are now compelled TO go TO Solomon
City for this purpose, as there is no safe
WAY Of getting aciuss the river. This
river in that sections an unsafe stream
to ford at all seasons ofthe year, and very
few will risk their own lives and those
oftheir stock in trying to cross. Not only
isthe desire for bridge prevalent among
the people living north of the river but
also among IA large class Ofgood farmers
living on the south side. They urge,
and with force too, that they are taxed
heavily to build the county buildings and
bridges in other parts Of the county,
where they can not be OF any possible
benefit to them, while their wishes and
appeals for similar improvements in
their particular section of country are
disregarded and even scoffed at. To all
fair minds it would seem that no one por-
ton of the county should be favored
more than another, in improvements of
this kind, and while one section is taxed
for the benefit of us, our section should
be made to contribute to the benefit OF
others. If we would keep our county
from being divided, we must favor all
alike. In conversation with 4 highly re-
spectacle and intelligent gentleman liv-
ing on the Solomon, few days since,
we cleaned from him that his people
were very much dissatisfied with the sell
fish actions Of some Of our citizens in
this regard, and that they proposed to
have their rights respected or make ear
nest endeavOr To cut of that portion Of
the county. Now it is oar bounden du-
ty 10 give them Il bridge, after they have
so generously aided us in times past in
getting our many public improvements.
Another argument advanced by the
gentleman before referred 10 was that,
q great amount immigration was turned
from this into other counties, for the
reason that immigrants will not risk the
perllous fording Of the river, which Is a
fact. While we are inviting and encou--
aging immigrants to come among US,
how can We consistently sc, it when at
the very door of the county on great
thoroughf;,re leading through it, there
is a stream filled with trcacherous sands
and swift currents through which no sane
man would dare TO 90.
Let the people act justly in this mat
ter, and magnanim ously aid the citizens
of the Solomon valley in securing a
bridge they want and need.

FARMERS, WRITE FOR YOUR PAPER {.

These words stand permanently, in large
letters, at the head of one of the leading ag-
ricutural papers of the west, the Prairie
Farmer of Chicago, which we are glad to
welcome to our table again in its completely
restored form, apparently improved rather
than hurt by its baptism of fire. And they
are rightly placed there, for it is essential to
the success ola farmers paper that its col
umus should be " Farmers Exchange"
where its readers may meet, us in Il great
Farmers Club, to swap experiences, ask and
answer questions, report the condition of
crops, the value of different kinds of stock,
seeds and implements, and to discuss all
doubtful points of husbandry. And here,
while pressing home the Importance of all
these uses to which the farmers paper may
be put, and to which we trust onr readers
will more and more freely put the VERMONT
FARMER, we wish to say a word us to the
kind of communications that are most ac-
ceptabe to readers, and consequently to the
editor They should contain exactly those
things which are easiest 10 write. and per-
haps, for that reason, easiest overlooked.
Reports of facts details of experiments; the
yield of different crops, with particulars in
regard to seeding, manuring and cultivation;
neighborhood sales and prices; new and
improved ways of doing any kind of farm
work; success or failure of different breeds
of stock, kinds of seed, patterns of tools, &C.,
&C.; success and failures in orcharding and
fruit growing; information from our lady
readers upon points of domestic economy,
and enquiries regarding the same all these,
and similar matters are interesting, and will
be read with pleasure, and surely they ARE
easy to write. On the other hand few of us
are competent to instruct by long or labored
essays, written in n readable style, and con-
tanning matter sufficiently useful and practi-
cal to pay for the space they occupy. And
such articles are particularly out of place in
IL paper like ours. where the necessity is not
to fill up wide eXpanse of surface with
something that may be called reading, but
rather to boil down and extract the substance
of facts pure meat, that shall nourish the
mind of the reader. Some correspondents
will see in the views here expressed TIE
reason the non-appearance of articles with
which they have favored us, articles often
good in themselves, but not the kind that we
need, or could publish with satisfaction to
our readers. We would like to have them,
and us many more as can be prevailed on to
do so, to write for us, taking the ideas thrown
out above us guide, and we shall be glad
to publish all such communications. Don't
be afraid that possible errors in writing,
lon a.
ton, for if facts are given us we will willing
ly fix them up" if needed But we find,
us rule, that farmers letter reads best
just as it is written, and many bashful
writer does vastly better than he thinks. So
send along your notes, and the more the bet
i ter.

"iA none but enemies on g~or| IS
Mr.. Grcelcy's ce.icitoas rendering Of the
claim Of would-bc reconstructed Democ.
racy to confidence. With some indig.
nation he asks and answers thus:
"Who are these people that, beaten
IN 1864, and beaten in 1868, anticipate
their beating Of 1872, with the rcmin
der that they have young Uncas at
Albany who shonld be transferred to
tho White House, and the assurance
that in their hands alone can tho Con-
stitution be preserved and the country
protected? What did they do for
either when both were in peril? Are
these the men who rallied the people to
tho support Of the government when it
Was threatened with overthrow? Are
these tho men who confruntcd and
crushed secession-that abolished slave
ry-that made all men equal before the
laws-that took the responsibilities
during long, exhausting, doubtful war,
and have nlanfully fulfilled them ever
since?
In 1860 they were in favor of the
equal rights Of shareholders in all the
territories. In 1861, they regarded
any attempt to prevent this conflict in
to war for the emancipation Of slaves
as fatal to all the hopes of the restora-
tion of the Union. In 1862 they de-
clared that the war as then conducted |
must involve the country in BANKRUPTCY |
and dishonor. In 1868 they openly
and secretly labored to break down the
draft. In 1864 they declared that the
administration of Abraham Lincoln, b,
its usurpations, its disregard Of the Con-
stitution, its violation Of personal liberty
and States rights, its resort to military
power to subvert civil authority, its un-
compromising and cowardly degradation
of the nation in its foreign policy, its
perversiou Of the war from its original
object and its avowel determination to
prolong it, to compel the abandonment
OF slavery" has become revolutionary
in its character. In 1866 they were
washed under by their country's tri-
umph; but when at last they were able
once more to get their heads above wa
ter, they came up with bits Of resolutions
in their mouths, opposing re construction,
opposing impartial suffrage, opposing
the honest payment Of the debt, oppos-
ing everything gained by the war and
everything the war had made ncedfa),
and now at last they inform us that they
acquiesce in the Constitution as it is
and must straightway be entrusted with
its exclusive care. Put none but trail
tors on guard is, in pl1iner phrase, the
substance of their appeal by the men,
'res Of the past, for their policy for the
needs of the present, Some day, per-
1aps, they may succeed. But first, they
would better get new leaders, disguise
1nde, new name, and quit meeting in
ramnany Hall.

Minneapolis last week. lie was there
exhibiting the patent steam feeder Of
which he is the patentec and which
will be remembered as having been cx-
hibited by him few weeks ago in this

the time. lie came to the First Ma
tional Hotel about 8 o'clock at nj ght,

attempting to walk passage way, some
four feet wide, leading from the main
building to the wing, he fell about 20

of rubbish, meeting with wounds Of a
very dangerous character. Both his
legs were broken below the knees, the
right leg having a compound fracture.
His head was severely bruised over the
left temple and his shoulders and face
we're also severely bruised. He was
removed to a hospital and it was feared
that one of his legs would have to be
amputated.
