mat thoughtful and SPACIOUS old conserya-
tive aTer, the New York Journal Of Commerce, in
review ne the political situation says that no one
can nov speak with warrantable confidence of
the result OF the Presidential campaign. 1t is
impossible at this moment 20 judge of the recep-
hcn which Mr.. Greeley's nomination will have
among a considerable proportion Of the demo-
cratic party. As for the liberal republicans
they are al unknown quantity. But to elect Mr..
Greeley lie must obtain the whole democratic
vote and over 10000 come-outers from the old
republican organization. Chow he is to over
Pass tEeSs difficulties is question that will task
the Ingenuity Of the wisest Of his advisers say
tie Journal.
But We see, already, evidences that what
ever nsy be the unknown quantity of the liberal
republican vote, Mr.. Greeley is certain to fail of
getting the united democratic vote. Ex-Gor.
Saulsbury, CT Delaware, declares that there are
2,o|0 democrats in Delaware who will not vote
for Horace Greeley, and from the utter refusal
OF the Delaware delegation at Baltimore to sup
port him this seems lot exaggerated estimate
fOrty-two democrats Of Freeport, Illinois, have
signed a pledge not to support Greeley. They
ceclare that though sold out at Baltimore their
votes "eannot be delivered" Mr.. Read. who
has been known as the only Greeley republican
IN the Connecticut legislature, and who is the
president OF the Greeley club in Danbury, now
says that he will not vote for him since he has
become the democratic candidate. Senator
ferkihs, OF Connecticut, who was claimed by
New-Haven democratic paper as wavering to-
WARDS Greeley, declares that he has no thought
OF voting for the man with ga democratic hook
in LIS hose"
These are significant straws showing that the
wind has by no means settled in the direction OF
Greeley.

IN Brooklyn, New York, by friend. These
murders With urloaded 90 fire arms pointed at
people b. way o: joke are alarningly frequent
throughout the country, and tits time stop was
put TO them. Michigan, we believe, is entitled to
the credit OF having taken the lead in legisla-
ton against criminal thoGghtlessness. In that
state the pointing of a trearm, loaded or un-
loaded, at citizen is sdjudged misdemeanor,
punishable by fine and imprisonment, and if
damage comes OF such criminal folly, the per-
petrator is held responsible, pecuniarily and
tTini2ally. Other states and cities would do
well to pass a similar law.

The news comes by cable that Gen. Sherman
has been boorishly snubbed by Emperor Will
an and lis generals IL this be true, it will be
lAciy to kndle some resentment this side of the
V-ter against the German officials concerned,
u The reason that Gen. Sherman Is so notably
+ Sdest and unpretending that the indignity to
E'ri must have been entirely gratuitous. We
e.. afraid that the Emperor and his generals
are unduly inflated with their triumphs in the
Held, and are disposed &C take to themselves the
credit due largely to the Intelligence, courage
sd good qualities OF the rank and ale of the

Plymouth sketches--no. sz.

As one of our laboring men was going to his work very early one morning the present winter, he heard, while passing 8 house, "A humping noise, and stopped to listen. What could it mean? It cer- tainly sounded like the chopping of hash. Indeed. after listening 2 few moments. the individual pursued his way. fully con- vinced that the sounds were made by the good house wife. in chopping hash for breakfast Understand that this eircum- stance led to the following reflection. Hash, though somewhat mysterious, is nevertheless an excellent dish. And it possesses one great advantage over some other dishes. It saves, specially when one has poor teeth,-a deal of chewing. Blessings on the one who inyanted the chopping knife!

When he arrived at home from the store at noon he was. startled to find various strange people carelessly strewn from the gate to the stoop, and spread out on the yard in groups of twos and threes. The first impression was that something siekening had happened. but upon learning the true state of affairs. he was 50 overpowered by gratitude that he cheerfully engaged with hisestimable wife in pouring hot water on those of the as- sembly who seemed impervious to milder arguments. =
