EAST WILTON, June 10th, 1872.
The rains during the past three weeks have
been copious and refreshing. This effect upon
the grass has been excellent Wherever there
were grass roots left in the ground last fall there
the grass is coming forward finely. The favor
able weather of late is not only producing
rapid growth in height, but is also causing it to
to thicken up at the bottom. The prospect now
is, in this section, that the hay crop will be
double what it was year ago.
Grain of all kinds is looking finely and a
larger breadth than usual has been sown, so
that we may reasonably expect an unusually
large harvest. The season. has been rather wet
for corn SO that it is rather backward, but will
quickly come forward with few warm pleas
ant days. 4
Grass-hoppers of small size have made their
appearance in considerable numbers in some To-
calities about here, probably having been hatch
ca from the ground from eggs deposited last
season, but the continued rains will be likely to
give their delicate organizations severe shock
winch we hope may blast their hopes and end
their existence in the innocence of youth.

To The ssROYs.O

There were in the procession, and in the
great crowd which assembled in Market
Square, before the Republican Head Quarters,
on Friday night, large number of young
men who will cast their first vote this year,
and a considerable number who will vote in a
year or two. We were glad to see them there
1t is a good omen, when youths, who are
about to assume the duties and responsibilities
of electors, seek instruction on the topics
which they will soon be called to consider
practically. We ask them to observe thenum-
Der and character of the people there assem-
bled, and who will make up similar gather
ings throughout the campaign, and to COM
pare them with the people who will make up
the assemblages under the Greeley and Brown
banners, or whatever other standard our adj
versaries may be driven to adopt. We ask them
to compare the fact, with the foolish account
of it given by the organ of the opposition, and
to consider whether they can afford to affiliate
with party which feels it necessary to resort
to such gross and obvious-hence silly-mis-
representation. The Republican Party is the
party of progress-of the future; and we ask
that these young men should consider well
whether they wish to attach themselves to
the extreme conservative party, great only in
History, with no possible future.
We welcome you heartily among us, and
invite you to visit our headquarters, where
will be found large list of the best news and
political journals, and every convenience and
comfort for gaining information on the absorb
ing topics of the day. Come and see us as
often as you wish, and be always assured of
a most friendly welcome.
We like the ''boys," and shall always de-
cline to JOIN our democratic neighbor in revil-
ing them. ...

Causeless Depression.
This expression is often used. but it is manifestly
absurd. Gloom and melancholy are not spontaneous
They are unnatural mental conditions and usually

liver and the bowels are responsible for the cloud

The Greeley Roll.

Mr.. Greeley has the support OF the Democ-
r,cv of Maine. That fact may as well be ac-
knowledged first as last. The Democratic
newspapers seem anxious to place his name
at the head of their columns, in case he is
nominated at Baltimore. All the Democratic
leaders from old Virgil Delphini Psrrss, to
young W. II. Clifford, are Greeley men. But
having conceded so much to the great protec-
zionist leader, there is nothing more to be
said The Democratic party of Maine is in
minority, and without large accessions from
outside, it can do nothing. Whence are its
recruits coming? Surely not from the Repub-
lican Party. The Belfast Republican Journal
has examined the State with extraordinary
care, and finds only eleven Republicans that
it thinks worth mentioning, who have donned
white hats. These are the names Hon.
Geo. F. Talbot, and Hon, j. FL. Hamlen, OF
Portland; Hon. j. 81. Williams, and Hon.
Thomas S. Lang, of Augusta; Justices Dick
erson and Danforth, of the Supreme Court;
Hon. A. D. Manson, and Chas Peters, Esq,
of Bangor; Hon. f. A. Pike, of Calais; Hon.
T. Fl. Gushing, Winterport; True Harmon,
ESQ.,, formerly Collector at Belfast. We have
reproduced these names faithfully from the
Republican Journal, without skipping an
Hon." or overlooking an esq, "although
these monosyllables play leading part in the
list, and give it a portentiously ''weighty" ap-
pearance. But we find this list, short and
sweet as it is, embraces the names of several
1+1ap,a, x.ybo ,,ofoYio,,cly do NOT o;,r, ma
turnal Greeley songs, or harry his foes by day,
as the minnesinger "Faust'' has described.
Mr.. Talbot went off to Europe before the Gin
cinnati Convention, leaving characteristic
note for the Advertiser, in which he grimly
satirized the busy bodies, who said he was a
delegate to that gathering Mr.. Pike is
vouched for by the Belfast Age, as gentle
man who is attending to his private business,
and taking no part in the Greeley movement.
Mr.. Lang has written a lette to the Bath
Times, which, though couched in vague and
mysterious language, a good deal like Del
phic oracle, is understood to mean that he is
''no such person." Here are three men, and
the most conspicuous of the eleven, who de-
cline the honor of helping the Democrats, ex-
Rebels, and Ku-Klux beat Grant. How
many of the eight gentlemen remaining are
willing to endure the associations with which
the Republican Journal has provided them?
We know not; but it must be admitted that
great suspicion is cast on the whole roll by its
inaccuracy as to its most important names.
Radical free-traders like Mr.. Talbot, shrewd
politicians like Mr.. Pike, and frank, honest
Republicans like ''Tom'' Lang, are not easily
decoyed into such an obvious trap as the Blairs
have set for the feet of the foolish and unwary.
Probably the Republican Journals list will
dwindle down, in the course of week or two,
to four, or at most five names. And these
will need all that "Hon." and esq" can do
for them, to lift them into sight and notice.
Now will some other paper make list?
