Fruits Of the New Departure. y

high-soundiug hsmbug, the "new departure. .
II predicted the defeat Of the Democracy In
Pennsyivaaia and Ohio, aud attributed the loss
ofCaiifornia 70 the same cause. Pregnant only
with mischief this professed innovation, which
meant really nothing, but was Sufficiently mig
understood to provoke dissension and Invite
disaster, has been Abandoned by lis most 3 or
sistent ally, the New York World, and was
Significantly ignored by both tho New York
and Maryland State Conventions. In The place
OF its nativity IL has invoked defeat, and M

THE FAMINE IN PERsIA.-Later

widely spread and des ructive than ever.

tiviy by Afghan 1anditti. Meanwhile
the Shah, alter tho fashion of Eastern
rulers, has wholly 'lisregarded the suf.
feriugs of his subjects, aud iuthlessly
left them to the wretchedness aud doath
which his own incapaeity has brought
upon them. While his people have
been dying by thousands under pesti
lence aud famine, his Royal Majesty
has taken his usual hunting expeditions
and lived as richly aud recklessly as
ever. A mob Of several thousand starv
ing men and women who assembled
before his palace gates, conducting
themselves in a very riotous manner
aud coupling his Majesty's name with
opprobrious and disrespectful epithets,
awoke that worthy magistrate to real
izing sense Of the situation. He there.
fore issued an edict that bread should
be sold ut certain fixed price, but as
there was no bread to be bought at any
price this was not wholly satisfactory.
After this he imprisoned the Vixier Of
the town and baked the bakers 10 their
own ovens.

Democrats and Conservatives, beware
Of all tricks Of the Radicals. Do no,
be deceived BY their promises. They
will make proposition to vote for GU,
State nominees if you will support Their
county ticket, or will cut your owl

from Governor down. Do not scratch
siugle name.
Remember that the Radicals, five
years ago, deprived oil the Demo
Gratis and Conservatives, as far as posi-
Bile, from voting. Yet these men will
now ask for the suffrsges OF Democrat,
asd Conservatives, as they well kno~
that there is not strength enough il

FRANCIS II. BLAIR ON THE PoLITI
CAL SIrUATIoN.-Alr Blair has made
speech at Montgomery. lie is op
posel to tho New Departure, and be.
lieves that it harmed the Democracy in
the recent elections, but with the con
sistency for which he is remarkable he
proposes that candidate shall be nom
mated on that platform in the hopes of
drawing towards it enough disaffected
Republicans to carry the Presidential
election against Grant. His alterua
tive is that the Democrats do not nomi
nate at all if these Republicans will
put up candidate, but give him their
support.
Hon. Francis p Blair should utter
his opinions, upon the nominee in 1872
with little less confidence, and with
hold his advice until il is asked. His
own candidacy, n. the last election, was
one of the principal causes of our de.
feat Would he defeat us again by re

aud press consistently devoted to prin
ciple, with brains enough to tell the
right hand from the left, in political
matters. We need, as our candidate
in 1872, another James X. Polk, or
another Franklin Pierce, a sterling
Democrat, who has executive ability,
but who has not been involved TO any
extent, in the distracting qucsri ous o.;
the last decade. Such a man, upon the
platform oIopposition to Radical aggres
sion upon the Constitution aud Radical
proaigacy, would sweep the field.

Tue Crops ABRoAD.-It is extreme.
ly probable that for some time to come
there will be large demand abroad for
American grain and breadstuffs. The
reports of this years crops in Europe
Indicate less than an average yield. In
England, the wheat is not only deficient
in quantity but poor in quality, and it
is anticipated that hundred million
bushels will have to be imported this
winter to supply the deficiency. I he
English potato crop is short, although
the Irish crop is an average one. From
the Continent the reports are better
than those from England, but at the
same time no ability is indicated to
supply the English def -icncy. The
late war seriously interfered with agri.
cultural operations iu both France and
Germany, aud this has produced there
an exceptional demand for grain. Where
crops arc grown they are coed, but the
surface cultivated Is not sufficient TO
supply the home demand, SO that both
countries viii DO importers. One OF
the natural sources OF supply of Europe
in such cases, would be the corn grow .
Ing region embracing Hungary, the
Danubian Principalities, Southern Rus
STA aud Austriu, but from these districts
the reports generally indicate small
crops, Roumana being the ouly Danu
bian province likely to produce full
yield. Hence Europe, always an i'm
porter Of wheat aud corn from America,
will, this winter, make an unusually
heavy demand upon us.-iha. Lesyger
