nave yet to come to the letter by Carl
Sc'urz IN confirmation of his charge that
a trend OF the President, who offered the
Missouri Senator the bride of unlimited fe-
deral patronage if he would withdraw his
opposition to the st. Domingo Job, and
stated in writing that the offer was made
with the knowledge and approval of the
President together with President Grants
evidence that the statement of his friend is
incorrect. and that Senator Schurz has
been imposed upon. The long, rambling
story about a bargain between the plain
TIT, Horatio Seymour, Waldo Hutchins,
and some obscure country politicians, in
relation to the Presidential nomination,
will no doubt be thrown out as stupid,
unreliable rubbish, having nothing what
ever to do with the case and the testimo-
ny and reports in the French arms. affair,
the Custom House investigation, and SINH
lar ]tollles, will be served in the same man
ner' Finally, WE are promised a mass of
e~lectloneerlng documents more formidable

guilty OF all manner of offences. and the
PlalntItt clearly entitled to the relief he
claims while every witness for the de-
renee IS prepared to make oath that the
plaintiff is as complete al. impostor as the
claimant of the Tichborne baronetcy is renra-
sented to be; that he has no cause ofaction.
and that the trust he seeks to recover has been
well discharged by the. defendant. and
should be suffered to REMAIN in his hands.
IN addition to this conf citing testimonya
mass OF documentary evidence has been
!aId before the Court, and more remains TO
be offered. Included in the former are the
platforms of the parties to the suit hut
they are so much alike that they NAV he
accepted as a set-otf one against the other
without prejudice or advantage to either
SIDE Then there is the notorious Ku Kin
aW, which IS put in to show whether
congress or the President is responsible
Ior tne military oppression of the South
and the rule OF the baronet at the ballot
box; together with the election law. which
forms part OF the proof against the South
efn policy OF the administration. Miner
Gus art.cIeS and letters from the pen of the
plaintiff are placed before the iufy bv the
defence, calculated to show the plaintiffs
ioimer opinions and admissions in regard
to the r]ascality Of the democracy and the
honesty OF the defendent but all these
are claimed to be barred by the statute of
limitations. One important paper offered
by The plaintiff is Greeley's admirable LETT
ter OF acceptance Of the Baltimore nomj-
nations, in which the Cincinnati candidate
50 modestIy frankly, and ably ~justiies his
position, and repeIs the assaults that have
Deen made on his consistency, showing
that the honest champion Of the cmancipa-
ton Of The blacks could not fail to become
the advocate Of the full enfranchisement
OF all his white countrymen. Then, we
, 1872-09-14

9ence are beginning to understand that a
serious princlpIe is involved in the case.
and that upon the verdict may depend the
safety of republican institutions and the
peace and prosperity of the country.
When the court was first opened at
Cincinnati, and the customary . Hear We -
OF the crler, thrice repeated, had secured
silence aud attracted attention, the prelimi-
nary proceedings were as usual somewhat
formal, and the statement of the plaintiffs
case scarcely prepared the world for the
excitement and interest that have been
developed as the trial has proceeded. If
IS not untrequently the policy of shrewd
counsel to make their Introductory adj
dresses tame and insipid, and to keep the
opening statement of their cases far within
the bounds of the facts they expect to
prove before the Jury retire and so At
Cincinnati, while the complaint against the
defendant was fully set forth and the da-
images were fixed, the Jury had yet to
learn the extent of the evidence and the
widespread consequences dependent upon
the action. At Philadelphia the defen-
dant put IN his plea to the plaintiffs de-
claratlon and demand, and issue was fairly
joined. But it was not until the democra-
nc part was made joint plaintiff in the suit,
by a special order Of the court at BaIti
more that the trial may be said to have
fairly commenced. The witnesses in this
remarkable case are principally taken from
the politicians and the party organs on
both sides, and, as frequently happens, the
stories they tell are found to be very con-
Trajectory. There is a great deal Of hard
swearing both for the plaintiff and defen-
dal. md the testimony would puzzle the
most intelligent jury that could be empa-
neIIed II they had nothing else to guide
them to a verdict. On the plaintiffs side

containing a very large proportion of such matter sand

most advantageous, where it is most necessary for disin-

let me observe, is of still greater Importance in our eli
mate Than IN the more temperate regions, since, as our
!oXnflant vegetation is Of very rapid growth, so should
It be supplied rapidly and abundantIy with the means
OF groWth-Iood. If g says Liebig, . the end ofcuI-

perfection, though that point is not yet attained, L be-
lieye, even by the most scientific engineers. When
ever such improvement shall occur tn the construction
of our furnaces [ hope our crops may be largely in
creased by the great additional amount Of vegetable
matter which we shall be able to return to our soil,
and then, be it remembered, lime will become of more
