and yet, because certain class of Republic
cans in Louisiana has control of the Re-
publican organization of that State, he bolts
TO Cincinnati and arrays himself against
Grant and Wilson and the Republican party.
The whole thing is illogical, disorganizlng,
and mischevous, and savors more OF passion
and disappointment than of reason and pat
riotism.
We know but little of the local politics OF
Louisiana, but we know enough of human
nature to know that there is probably wrong
on both sides. We certainly hoped that n
union of all the Republican forces would be
effected by the convention at Baton Rouge.
Especially did we desire to see the claims OF
Governor Pinchback suitably recognized. He
is a brave man, and one who can be trusted
in any case where the rights of the colored
man are concerned; but not even the sacri-
flee of such Il man by local organization
should drive him, or any other true man, into
the arms of the Liberal Democratic party, and
hostility to the Republican party. We are
clad to see that Grant and Wilson remain
at the head of Mr.. Pinchback's columns, and
we hope they will stand there till they are
triumphantly elected in November.

The appointment of Hon. John Gray to fill
the vacancy in the Board Of Trustees for Col
ored Schools in the cities of Washington and
Georgetown is one that will give satisfaction
in all quarters. Mr.. Gray is a progressive
man and one who takes lively interest III
promoting the education of his race. The
schools have never made better showing
ihan that of the term just closed. In the
beginning of the term all sorts of rumors and
charges of incompetency on the part of the
school officials were atloat, but the great sue
cess of the schools has driven the croakers to
the back ground.
The Board will evince lively regard for the
best interests of the schools by continuing the
management in the same hands that did such
eh'ectual work last term. Especially should
teachers be retained who have proven them
selves able and efficient. We know that
pressure is brought upon the Trustees for the
appointment Of this or that person who may
or 2i:iy not be meritOrous, but when they
know that the schools are already supplied
with good teachers il would be a disregard of
their duty to the people for the Trustees to
displace them for an experiment.

COlOrcd schools In the County

In the county Of Washington separate
schools for colored children are under the
management of the same board as are the
white schools. In this respect the system
differs from that of Washington, where the
schools are managed by those in whose eX-
elusive interest they are carried on. While
we are opposed to separate schools, we be-
lieve that if we must have them, they should
be conducted by their friends rather than by
their enemies. The Board of School Com
missioners for the county during the past year
has been as just to the colored schools as to
the white, and we can have no fault to find
with the management, but changes have been
made, and in one instance an outspoken Oppo-
nent of as good school facilities for colored as
for white children has been appointed to take
the place of man who has been true to his
convictions of right and of the equality of all
men before the law. This man has been re-
moved by the Governor, not for any unfit
ness for the office, and another man of doubt
full politics takes his place, who did his best
to prevent the building Of a good school house
for colored children, and who looks upon
colored people asking for equality before the
law as inaugurating war Of races. The only

baltimore and P"sOm,ac Rail. oad

Between Baltimore and Washington this
road is now completed Trains are now reSu-
larly running. The city Of Washington, in
its relations, business, and otherwise with
the North is no longer dependent upon a
single line of rail. The monopoly OF travel
and freight to and from the capital OF the
nation is ended. If the city has been well
served in the past, it will be better served
now. Competition is not only the life OF
trade. but the essential condition of progress
and improvement. Monopoly in money, lit
crature, politics, religion, and railroads alike
tend to arrogance, Incidence, and stagnation,
and in the deliverance of the capital of the
nation from a railroad monopoly, we feel like
raising loud note of rejoicing. The trav-
eler now who wishes to take the natural, easy,
and most expeditions route to the North and
Northwest, may do SO by the Northern Gem
t,ny Rail,ocd without vexatious delay in Bal
timore, and without the trouble of reeheck-
ing his baggage. AT last we are not obliged
to travel two hundred miles out of otw way by
New York city to reach Rochester, Buffalo,
or Niagara Falls. We may now check
through pay through, and travel through,
and be accommodated in elegant cars through
one of the most picturesque and charming
parts of our country. From Harrisburg to
Willamsport, and thence on to Miniqua
Springs, there is not more beautiful scenery
to be viewed during any equal number OF
miles of railway travel in the country. We
congratulate our fellow-citizens of Washing
ton and the great North, East, and West,
upon the completion of the Baltimore and
Potomac Railroad, for we are brought by it
into direct connection with that vast net
work of railway communication which makes
us neighbors to the utmost boundaries of our
vast system of civilization.

opposition against the late incumbent came
from negro haters, and because Of his radi-
calism. The injustice to the colorcd people
in this matter is apparent when we consider
that most of the schools in the county are
colored schools, and that the Board of Com
missoncrs numbers but one colored member.
We hope Governor Cooke will give this mat
ter n little closer examination than he has
done and not permit blow to be struck at
the highest interest of the race ut this time.
We want education, our enemies wish to pre-
vent us from getting it.

The Wheat Crop OF the United
States.

The June report of the Statistician of the
Department of Agriculture at Washington,
now in press, is exhaustive in its treatment
OF wheat statistics. 1t is based upon reports
from 903 counties, of which 1919 Indicate an
average condition; 270 higher than the aver
age, and 434 low condition, ranging from 100,
the standard of medium prospect, down to
10, and in 4 few cases down TO an entire fail
ure. The State averages are calculated not
simply from the number of counties reported,
but from the comparative production of the
several counties. These 9O3 reports include
a very large proportion of the wheat area of
the country. The summary of the returns of
area shows reduction of , per cent. from
that of 1871. The acreage of spring wheat i'll
the States which grow that variety mainly, is
represented as follows: Maine, los; New
Hampshire, 100; Vermont, 100; Massachl-
sets, 95; Wisconsin, 9S; Minnesota, l0l
Iowa, LOG; Nebraska, ll3; Oregon, l01.
California, where the distinction of spring
and winter is scarcely known, reports spring
at 20 and winter 1870. Illinois, where win
ter wheat constitutes two-thir,ls of the crop,
gives l0l for winter and - for spring. Kan
sas, where spring wheat predominates, re-
turns 10 for spring and 60 for winter. The
States growing winter wheat are: Connecti-
cut, 95; New York, %; New Jersey, %;
Pennsylvania, 90; Delaware, 96; Maryland,
100; Virginia, %; North Carolina, lOi;
South Carolina, 90; Georgia, 9S; Alabama,
40j; Mississippi, %; Texas, ll5; Arkansas,
90; Tennessee, l03; West Virginia, 100;
Kentucky. %; Ohio, So; Michigan, %; In
diana, "a; Illinois, lOl; Missouri, %. The
condition of the predominant variety in each
state is thus stated: Maine, l0l; New
Hampshire, %; Vermont, 100; Massachu-
sets, 90; Connecticut, SO; New York, g;
New Jersey, 20; Pennsylvania, 20; Della
ware, 20; Maryland, A; Virginia, S.. North

spring, l03; Wisconsin, l04; Minnesota, LOG;
Iowa, III; Missouri, winter, So; Kansas, los;
winter, 4G; California, 90; Oregon, 95. The
general average of condition for the entire
crop is "a. The department estimate for the
crop of 1871 was 100000, 900 bushels at III
bushels per acre considering ~ bushels an
sverige yield. The area and condition of
the present crop on the first week in June
pointed to product of 22O, O00, 900 bushels in
1872. The crop Of 1869 which was about 10
per cent. above an average, the largest re-
corded in ten years, was 2S7 900, 600 bushels
as returned by the census.

has outstrpped the comprehensions of the
Americans themselves. The fabrics of our

They wrap the loins Of Africa, and the tawny

Their letters must be read from and written
in many tongues, for which there sit along

LeMOyne Normal and Com nIcrcial
school, Memphis, Tenn.

We have received a catalogue of the above
school which shows it to number two hun
bred and ninety-one pupils. The following
is Il brief history of the establishment OF the
school:
DIR. i. Julius LeMoyne, of Washington,
Pennsylvania, having directed in his will that
twenty thousand dollars should be paid to
the American Missionary Association of New
York for the establishment Of an English
school for colored youth, at some point in the
Southern States, decided, in 1870, that in
view of the pressing demand of the colorcd
people for education, he would be II witness
to s.he. execution sf~his own will. He there,
fore selected Memphis as the place, and di-
rected the association to draw for the money
to build and endow the school.
The building was erected and the school
was opened in October, 1871.
The school is under the care of the Ameri-
can Missionary Association of New York city,
aud the teachers are appointed by Rev. L.
NJ. Cravath, Field Secretary Of the Asso-
citation.

Mr.. GrecIey's New Allies.

Ii is Il matter of course that man who
has staked everything on success, either in
a good or bad cause, in which he has to de-
pend on the support of the masses, will have
to win friends and followers wherever he
can, and no one will blame Mr.. Greeley for
making the greatest possible show with the
names of prominent men who have come over
natural that conclusions should be drawn
from the character and the career of the men
thus paraded, rejecting more or less favor
ably on linn in whose support they rally. If,
as is generally admitted, a mans good or bad
tendencies will manifest themselves in the
associations that he seeks or that seek him,
il is evident that Mr.. Grceley's sympathies
and sentiments have become overwhelmingly
Democratic, so much so rs to make the orig
inal party designation Liberal Republican,
mere mockery. 1t is not denied that a
few old honest Republicans plunged headlong
into this movement, especially in its earlier
stages, many of whom have even retraced
their steps, but its only real strength lies in
the support of the Democratic element, and
here the curious fact is noticed that Just the
men whose accession Mr.. Greeley has
trumpetcd out most triumphantly have either
been until lately the most venomous and
malignant enemies of human liberty, or be-
long to class that the Tribune from its form
err exalted standpoint Of political virtue did
not even consider honest and honorable an
tagonists. 1t is indeed instructive and note
worthy that many Of the noisiest converts to
Liberal Republicanism have by no means
forsaken their old banners for the first time.
Some Of them wear their third or fourth uni

II nothing else will serve as a warning to
the colored voters of the country against
Liberal Republicanism, the fact that one of
the leaders of The new party in New York is
a Mr. John L. Andrews should. Mr.. An
drews was the leader of the rioters who.
in 1868, in New FORK city, hung colored men
to lamp-posts, burned down colored orphan
asylums, and gave New York city over to
riot and mob law for days.
