GREELEY MOVEMENT IN WASHINGTON
CoUNTY--A FIZRLE. The Fort Edward
correspondent of the Troy Times writes:
The Greeley convention, for which
Daniel Il. Parks has been canvassing the
county, came off on the Goth inst, at
the Eldridge House, in this village But
eight towns were represented out of II
in the county. Hon. Ralph Richards, of
Hampton, was chosen chairman, and A.
5. Burdick, of Granville, secretary. The
committee on organization, of which
Hon. James Gibson of Salem, was chair
man, reported the following to the con-
vention That we heartily adopt, as the
sentiment of this convention, the Cincin-
rasi platform and letter of acceptance
OF Horace Greeley. and that we endorse
the nominations of Greeley and Brown,
which was adopted. A number of en-
thusiastic speeches were made. After
appointing an executive committee the
convention adjourned. Two things were
noticeable in this convention One was
that Daniel Z. Parks was at the tail in
stead of the head second, that most of
the delegates are men that have outlived
their usefulness and gone to seed. We
all know that few kernels of corn will
make more noise than a full bushel so
it will prove in the Greeley movement
in this county. The Republican vote
of-this county will be cast for Grant.

The Fifth Avenue Ticket.


The Fifth Avenue Conference created
difficulty for the Baltimore Conven-
ton, by the nomination of William S.
Groesbeck, of Ohio, for President, and
Frederick Law Olmstead, of New York,
for Vice-President. Mr.. Groesbeck is a
statesman of eminent character and ac-
knowledged ability. Mr.. Olmstead is
unknown in national politics, but will
probably be recognized by most Of our
readers as an author and superintendent
of the Central Park in New York. AS
between Mr. Greeley and Groesbeck, no
democratic convention could hesitate on
grounds of principle or personal qualifi-
cations. No matter what the Baltimore
Convention may do, should Mr.. Groes-
beck remain in the field he will receive
the votes of many who are not prepared
to fall down and worship their lifelong
antagonist 1t is probably too late for
those who put him forward to secure his
adoption at Baltimore. The ''men of
brains and convictions" in the opposition
tlcians at Cincinnati, and failed to assert
themselves by immediate and bold re-
volt. The present suggestion, if adj
yanced bravely in early May, would
have carried the body Of the democracy.
The Greeley managers have divided and
demoralized that party, and its utter
prostration cannot be better illustrated
than by the probability that its national
convention will prefer Greeley to Groes-
beck, its bitter foe to one of its best
representative men.
Mr.. Groesbeck for this reason may de-
cline to be q candidate. If adopted at
Baltimore, he would be likely to carry
more electoral votes than can be cast for
Greeley. Should he remain in the field,
il will be seen in the convention how OBJ
noxious is Mr.. Greeley to the body of
democrats who seek no Office. The lack
of concentration on the part of the OPP
position, proves not only its hopeless
ness, but, in addition, that it has no real
ground for being at all. The govern
ment goes on very well, or its opponents
could agree why and how to attack it.
Whether with one ticket in the field or
many, with Groesbreck or Greeley alone,
or with both and others besides, the cleo
toral college will show larger majority
for Grant than in 1868.
On the whole, we welcome the new
ticket, Groesbeck and Olmstead, as
contribution to the variety of the cam
paign, and respectfully inquire what is
the next movement of the amiable gen
tlemen who are ready to do anything
to beat Grant"

The RECENT INUNDATIoNs IN ITALY
The accounts in the Italian papers of
the terribly destructive work occasioned
by the recent rains in Southern Italy
are most deplorable. The losses will ag-
gregate the sum of twenty millions of
francs. For miles the country was
flooded, and over forty thousand people
saved their lives with difficulty from the
rising waters of the rivers. At several
points, according to the mail accounts,
the Pc overlooked its banks, and caused
the disasters referred to. At Mezzano
the river first rose above its banks, and
subsequently at other points. With
commendable alacrity the authorities
performed their duty toward the suffer
ers, many of whom were found in the
most deplorable situation. King Victor
Emmanuel has subscribed 10000 francs,
the Minister of the Interior 5000, and a
large number of the rich landed propri-
etors in the country contiguous to the
scenes of the occurrences have contrib
uted generously to aid the unfortunate
sufferers who were driven from their
homes and despoiled of all they possess
ed by the angry waters of the swollen
river.

THE PEOPLE VS.. THE RAILROADS
Scarcely a day passes but somebody is
nut off from train on the New York
and New Haven railroad, for non-com-
pliance with rule of the road which al
lows passenger to stop but once be-
tween New Haven and New York, with
out paying full fare through from the
second stopping place. A Springfield
stove-dealer was a candidate for such
honors, the other day, but somehow they
didn't put him off. He had a through
ticket for New York, and stopped over
one train at Bridgeport, and, having
business in Stamford also, applied to the
conductor for check in order that he
might stop there and then resume his
trip to New York The check was fur
nished, with the information that he
would find it useless but he ventured to
stop, and afterward received the kind
assurances of the Stamford depot-master
and the superintendent of the road, who
was there at the time, if he went on to
New York he would have to pay his
fare. The idea of being compelled to
pay double fare Che had already bought
his ticket to New York, and the conduc-
tor had taken it up ''raised his dander, ;"
and finding a brother merchant at the
hotel who was in the same box, it was
agreed that the two would spend $1,000
apiece rather than submit to the extor-
ton of the road. Some of the leading
men of Stamford at this juncture came
forward with proffers of bail to any
amount, provided the Springfield men
should be arrested and locked up on their
arrival at New York-a not improbable
| contingency-on the charge of refusing
to pay fare. Whether or not the con-
ductor was notified by the ''super" that
this was case to be passed by, we can
not say; but the conductor, after declar-
ing the check worthless and urging the
| question little, found it convenient to
pass on, without putting the Springfield
man off So long as so many are kicked
off the cars who show no disposition to
resist the eXtortion by legal means, he
may credit his show of spunk for some
| thing. He wasn't arrested in New York,
either, and has made up his mind that
the best way is to object TO being swim
died by railroads or any other monopo-
lies This ''rule" of the road is especi-
| ally cheeky, in view of the obviously
| just decision of the United States courts.
in precisely similar case, last year, that
| the managers Of railroad have no right
to make a rule which will demand double
fare from a passenger. -.Spriaatield Re

NEW PRODUCTION ADAPTED To
THE SOUTHERN STATES.

Our attention has been called by Hon.
VIM. D. Kelly to an article not now pro-
duced in this country, but which is especi-
ally adapted to the climate and soil of our
Southern States. The hquorice root now
imported from Spain, Italy, Sicily and
France is especially adapted to the soil of
Eastern Virginia and North Carolina, and
many of the Western States could also
make it profitable article for culture. From
ten to twelve million pounds are imported
every year into this country, either in the
crude or manufactured state. 1t is largely
used by tobacco manufacturers and for
medical purposes, and some few are now
engaged in making it into a paste formerl Y
obtained entirely from Europe. A slight
duty now exists on manufactured liquorice,
and this should be maintained; also, let the
rough article be sufficiently taxed to en-
courage our Southern farmers to invest
in its cultivation. The root is grown in
England. and yields five hundred dollars to
the acre. Here or in the South it would
yield three or four times that amount. The
root is worth from five to ten cents per
pound, according to quality-three pounds
of root being used to make one pound of
paste necessary to the manufacture of
tobacco.-IVdsbingtOn Republican.

Niagara Falls, north of Albany, and almost
touches Maine as it reaches the ocean. The
latitude of the wine region of the Rhine in
France and Germany-49 north-is found
in the inhospitable region of British North
America. This difference in the tempera-
ture of the two continents is attributed in
a great part to the different distribution of
land and water under the equator in each.
Europe feels the influence produced by the
broad extent of burning sands exposed to
tropical sun in Africa, while in the Western
Hemisphere the space between the equator
and the tropic of Cancer is chiefly water,
which reflects the rays but does not heat
the air TO the same extent as the sands of
the desert. Certain data have been reach
ed which are of great importance. We
cannot depend entirely upon given mean
temperature of the whole year, for
this may be accompanied by
great extremes on the one hand
from which the resultant mean has been de-
rived; or, ON the other hand, there are
regions like some of the uplands of South
America, where the mean temperature is as
high as that required by the grape, but the
heat is at no time great enough to induce
the proper ripening of the fruit-the change
to sugar.
The summer mean temperature, or that
of the season of growth, is considered the
safer criterion, and it is stated that 65 de-
gTees is the lowest at which grapes will
ripen. Bauseingault the distinguished
French philosopher, who has bestowed
much careful study and observation upon
the influence of Meteorology upon vine
growing, has left us the following
conclusion: in addition to a sum-
mer and an autumn sufficiently
hot, il is indispensable that at a given pc
which follows the appearance of
the seeds-there should be month, the
mean temperature of which does not fall
below GO degs. Fahrenheit.
l have given the views of the foregoing
gentlemen at length, believing they will be
read with interest by your readers; and
allowing their correctness, we at Cnce con-
,lude that in our climate of Tennessee is to |
be found the conditions of success in grape |
culture, at least so far as meteorological in
1uence is a condition. a. Cox.
