highly appreciated and noticed by the con-

shown the Tlfbune's eloquent description

what great success has attended the I'M

which he treats, will be Invaluable and

A Useful Official,

In the new building Of the Department
OF Agriculture at Washington, the happiest
being will be our enthusiast, Townsend
Glover, the naturalist him to whom our
farmers apply for knowledge of what
birds eat the pinpin apples, and what worm
gets into the beet root. Glover is Brazil
ian by the accident of birth, Yorkshire
Englishman by parentage, a German by
education, American by adoption and en-
thuslasm. He is a singular looking man,
short, thick, near-seated, peculiar, an adj
mirable Crichton in the practical arts
Agriculture has been his fanaticsm for for
ty years. He paints, models in plaster,
engrayes, composes, analyses, and inyents
with equal facility. His passion is to be
the founder of an index museum to all the
products of the American continent, from
cotton to coal oil, from pitch-pme

IHE st. Louis correspondent of the
Springfield Republican, one of the Journals
opposed to President Grant, has not much
encouragement from Mr.. Schurz. In re-
cent letter he says:
MIR. Schurz is very popular with his
German fellow-citizens, who naturally feel
proud of one of their countrymen who has
achieved such distinction in foreign land,
and he is moreover one of the editors of the
most influential German papers here; vet
| with all these advantages in his favor, and
they are by no means inconsiderable, he
cannot move these sturdy people in the
least from their convictions. At the next
election they will vote for the regular nom
lnee OF the party, although he should
prove to be Gen. Grant, the man least of
all acceptable to them. If Schurz has any
private wrongs to revenge he must fight
his battles Alone"
The Germans of Missouri as well as the
Germans of every other section of the
country are proud of Mr.. Schurz, and for
the best reasons in the world. He is
gentleman of great ability, and as a jour-
nallst and parliamentary leader, deseryedly
enjoys reputation not inferior to that of
any other man in the country. The Ger
mans always delight to honor and reward
merit wherever they find it, and, in the
case of Mr.. Schurz, they are all tho more
earnest and enthusiastic in their commcnda-
ton because he is one of their own coun-
trrymen. But, while admitting his great
ability, and his services in one way or an
other, the Germans of the United States
are not blind to some OF Mr.. Schurz's
faults. They see, as plainly as other less
preludiced people see, that he is not in
fallible, and that he sometimes falls into
very great errors. Take, for instance, his
present course in the Senate.
If Prussia and King William had COM
planned in relation to the so-called sales of
arms, and if our government had paid no
attention whatever to it, then there would
be reason and an excuse for MIR. Schurz
In pressing the matter as vigorously as he
does in the Senate. But Prussia has made
no complaint whatever, for the reason that
she has no ground to do so. There is not
line in the State Department from Mr..
Bismarck charging the United States with
q violation of our neutrality laws. On the
contrary, there is dispatch upon dispatch
thanking our government for its course in
the recent war; thanking Mr.. Washburne,
our Minister at Paris, who was acting I'm.
der the direct instructions of the President,
for his interference in behalf of the Prus-
slams in Paris, for the protection which he
extended to them as the representative of
the United States.
The Germans recollect all these things.
and very properly refuse to be led by Mr..
Schurz, merely to crafty his personal spite
and luminosity against the President

Arlington Estate,

To the Editor qfMe State Journal.
in your last letter you strongly intimate
that you have closed discussion on this
subject. desire to present the following
statements which | have since seen, and
which are made, believe, on good authori.
ty: That in order to the payment of this
claim special legislation is necessary by
Congress-that there are l 100 acres in the
property, and that in 1864 or 1865 it was
assessed on the county books at $34, 100.
These are important, if true" A. NJ. G..
I'VE know nothing as to the actual value
OF this property. We only know that it
was sold to the United States to pay
tax of s92.07, assessed in January, 1864,
under law passed in 1862, providing for
taxing lands in the insurrectionary States,
and for their sale on non-payment of
taxes; and that, at the time of sale, the
property was assessed on the books of the
county at the figure named by our cores
pendent. But is an assessment made at
that time any evidence of the value of the
property now? We question whether pro-
perty could have been given away in the
vicinity OF the Arlington estate in 1864, if
coupled with the condition of occupancy at
the time. Our correspondent is probably
right as to the number of acres
in the estate. But the whole
l,lOO acres were sold to pay tax
that wouldn't cover the value of one acre
now. Besides, the best lawyers in the
country-and Republican lawyers at that
have given their opinion that the act of
1862, wasn't werth the blank paper it was
printed on, tested by the constitutionality
OF its provisions. Our friend ga. NJ. CO..
will see how multitudious are the questions
growing out Of this tax-confiscation of the
Arlington estate, and will not be sur
prised at our desire to "shut DOWN. on
the whole subject.-ED. JoURNAL.l

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
"Soutliern Loyalty

"Southern Loyalty"
TO the Editor Of the State Journal:
The Richmond Wing of this morning
says: "Mr. Fish is man of sense. He
fully appreciates the situation. He knows
that the Washington government, since its
merciless tyranny on the South, is in no
condition to enter on war with foreign
nation. For the one Ireland that might
harrass England, he breads the possibility
of having half-a-dozen or more Irelands on
his own hands,"
Now it is a. crying shame, and at the
same time libel on the people of the South,
for any paper to give utterance to such an
opinion. Should there be a war between
the United States and any other govern
ment, the whole people f..the..Sou would
be as loyal ard true to their own great
country as the people of any other part of
the Union, and would Gock as eagerly to
her standard, fight as zealously in her
cause, and display as much of true patriot
ism.
No one knows more truly than | do the
full horrors of war; no one is more
averse to war no onewould more depore
the necessity of this country engaging in
war and, especially with England. But
still am confident that nothing would tend
80 greatly to unite in bonds of deepest
sympathy all the parts of this
country as war with great
foreign power, and that no part of the
country would be drawn more closely to
the government by such war than would
the whole South and repeat that it is
libel and great injury to the people of
the South, even to suggest that they would
fail to give hearty support to their gov
eminent in such contingency.
Yours truly, Y.
