cents per bnshelz-at which they consider it
cheap manure. It has also proved with
them very valuable application to pear
trees, at the rate of about four handfuls to
each tree, spread about. It seems to give a
vigorous aud healthy growth, and they are
very rarely troubled with blight. Scoring
the trunk Of the tree with the penknife,
from the ground to The forks ofthe branch
es, is also practieed with good success.
Where the growth is rapid, both these pro-
eesses are highly recommended.

well as to fam crops. Twenty bushels to

use atou' 700 bushels per annum. Their

Mr.. DAVID A. WELLS is a very trouble
some opponent of the present a1ministra-
ton. The strength of Mr. Wells lies in his
mastery handling of figures. Give him a
long array of statistics from which to elimi-
nate the truths hidden in their dry and I'M
interesting columns, and when anybody else
would be perfectly miserable at the muddle
set before him, Mr.. Wells is supremely hap
py. His last effort has been the refutation
of the oft repeated claims of the supporters
OF Gen. Grant, that his administration
has economically used the revenue of the
country and reduced its expenditures.
Mr.. Wells shows that as compared with
Johnson's Administration Gen. Grant
has made no reduction in the expenses of
the Government; but, under more favorable
circumstances, has added to its expendi-
lures. The civil service, the Indian Depart
ment, the miscellaneous expenditures, the
collection of the internal revenue, in short,
every department over which the EXecu-
tive and the Washington officials have
control, has either been run at increased
cost, or exhibits an unfavOrable contrast in
economical management, to the same de-
partment under President johnson.

whom he was very severe, in his trade.
One day the old man was trying to harden

that won't harden it, don't know what
will"

Grant via. Perham.

We trust that none of our Republican
friends viii for a moment lose sight of the
significance of the September election of this
year. 1t has come to be of national conse-
quence. For years the eyes of the nation
have been turned to Mains after every sea-
son of political agitation to watch the effect
of such agitation upon the popular mind and
to acquire from the result here prognostic
of the action of the country. The slogan Gas
goes Maine so goes the Union" is no idle war
cry. Both parties here are powerful and
well organized, our people are intelligent and
thoughtful, nearly everybody can and does
read much, information of all public move
ments is rapidly disseminated by the multi
tude of ournals of all faiths, (which reach our
citizens and the verdict given here, although
early, has been almost universally ratified BY
the voters of other sections after the more ex-
tended deliberation allowed them.
We have here considerable diversity OF
opinion among Republicans upon some of
our local issues-notably upon the subject Of
liquor legislation. That this diversity oper-
ates powerfully against our nominee for Gov
ernor in some sections is notorious. We state
the fact for the purpose OF imploring our
TrIA a., b
all other subjects of merely local interest I'M
til an occasion when their action will not be
so detrimental to the national welfare.
Everybody comedies that Perham will no

vote against Perham will not affect the State
result and hence will be useless for that DUR
pose; but it will be effective against the ma

NEW YORK Sep. 2, 1872.

NEW YORK Sep. 2, 1872.
The DESPERATION OF THE TRIBUNE-ITs
THREAT TO GEN. BARLow-Irs LIBELs
UPON HENRY CLEws.
Mr.. Greeley's newspaper shows daily signs
that he is growing desperate. His attack on
Gen. Dix was so manifest a violation of the
decencies Of journalism that only rage could
have prompted it. 1t gave notice to Gen.
Francis c. Barlow, Attorney General of the
State, that his turn would soon come. This
had the appearance of threat that he must
abate his zeal for the Republican cause, or
receive broadside from the Tribune. Hap
PLY Barlow doesn't scare easy, to use a
Western phrase. He is as brave as a lion.
He bears the scars of wounds received on the
battle field where he was nearly hacked to
pieces. Since his return to his profession he
has given abundant proof that his moral
courage is equal to his physical. In the very
zenith of the power of the Erie gang when
Fisk carried things with high hand, with
David Dudley Field to contrive and George
4. Barnard to execute the legal devices
whereby he could steal the stockholders prop
erty and yet keep out of States Prison, Gen.
Barlow wrote three scathing articles for the
Tribune which was anti Erie if not anti Tam
many reviewingthe whole course of these con-
spirators, fiaying Field alive and holding cal
cium light in the face of Barnard so that all
men could see that incarnation of judicial mi
guilty. There was no concealment about them.
They bore the signature of FRAFCIS C.
BARLOW. 1t was an amazingly plucky thing
to do. Here were all the leading LAWYERS
quaking with fear lest some whisper of their
dsapproval of Barnard's acts might reach
his ears and influence his decision to their
prejudice. And this one man, still Young
and great many rounds below the top of
the ladder, threw himself CALAMITY into the
breach and made a beginning of that
onslaught which has at last eliminated in
the impeachment and disgrace of the worst
of our judges.
Fancy the Tribune intimidating such a
man as Gen. Barlow. don't think it will
follow up its warning The case is too hope
less.
But 10! a third appears. Mr. Henry Clews
is popular and successful banker. He is q
handsome, genial, kindly natured, warm

Significant.

EVERY member of Buchdndn's cabinet n0,c
hring srho robbed the treasury, reasonably
disarmed the North, scattered the nary and
destroyed the government as far as possible,
sciM every living member Of JEFF. Daois's cab
met, are earnest supporters Of Horace Gree
ley.
These men are sure of securing political
preferment through Mr.. Greeley if he is elect
ed. Does their past record so commend them
to the people of Maine that they desire again
to place them in positions of honor and trust ?
Ii so vote for Kimball and Clifford who repre-
sent Mr. Greeley, next Monday; if not vote
for PERHAM and BURLEIGH.

Mr.. Clifford will admirably represent his ma
tive town. He is sure to be elected.

The Tribune wants to compare the vote
next Monday with that of 1868 rather than
that OF 1871. 1t thus acknowledges defeat.

Democratic meeting at Mechanic Falls last
Wednesday dwindles down to 200 by count
on the ground.
The Lewiston Journal says that a gentle
man bought Greeley and Brown flag a week
or two ago of a firm on Lisbon street. On
Friday he brought it back and said he would
like to exchange it for Grant flag, as he had
decided to vote for Grant. This same firm
has sold about 800 Grant and Wilson flag.
and not over dozen Greeley flags. H.
A loud-mouthed Greeleyite, as many of
them are, made large amount of Greeley
blus.er at supper table of the steamer Mon
treal on recent trip, and demanded a vote
which resulted as follows: Grant 16, Greeley

The Chicago Times is authorized to say that

WE have received through the courtesy of
Hon. F. W. Bird, late of the Boston Bird
Club, a speech which Senator Summers
physicians and warm personal friends en-
entreated him not to deliver last evening in
Boston. We will here add that this pamph-
let came in an envelope under the frank of
our Bavarian reformer, Senator Carl Schurz.
The speech could never have been delivered
in single evening since it contains extracts
from most of Mr.. Summers great efforts
through number of years, which are land
marks to indicate the great Senator's position
at these periods, and ends with a mild form
of his abuse of Grant and praise of Greeley.
Doubtless our Democratic friends will furnish
bushels of them for Maine people, sent under
the frank of Fernando Wood, Frank Blair
and that North Carolina Congressman who
was leading Ku Klux in 1870
