the mission to the Court of ST..

to Great Britain, shows in what
light the talents, powers, patriot

were held by the President elect.
Shortly after the refusal Of the
mission by Colonel Elmore, Gen.

Colonel, with his family, at the

Speech of Senator Schurz.
ST.. LOUIS. July 2e


AT a Liberal Republican meet
ing at the Temple, tonight, called
for the purpose of electing coun.
ty Executive Committee, Senator
Schurz delivered a very lengthy
and elaborate address, of which
the following is an outline. The
Senator started out by saying:
STANDING before my constitu.
ents, deem it my duty to give an
account of my public conduct, the
motives which have governed it,
and the ends it is intended to se-
cure. can do this in no better
way than by expressing fully and
frankly my views on the events
which have produced the present
extraordinary situation Of our pub.
lie national affairs, events in which
l took a small part and also to
state what | consider it my duty
as a patriotic citizen to do in or.
der to promote the best interests
of the republic.
VT has been my misfortune to
dIsplease many with whom CO..
operated in the political field for
many years, and with whom | now,
with great regret, find myself sep.
arated. To the attacks with which,
some of them eudeavor to over.
whelm me have but one answer.'
be then reiterated what he has
previously said about never con.
sldering bis party the supreme ar.
bitter OF bis sense of duty. He then
said (: "When / was honored with
a seat in the Senate of the United
States, expected to support the
administration which then came
into power. The tasks it wac call
ed to perform were Of unusual i'm
portance. The civil war was over:
its logical results, the abolition of
slavery and the organization of
free labor society in the South,
were just being reduced to politi,
cal form, end imbedded in the Con.
stitution of the republic. The first
great object of our policy should
have been to renationalize the
South, and revive among the South.
ern people feeling calculated to
attach theil hearts again to the for
tunes OF this Union; |; for let us not
indulge in the delnsion that the
holding together by force of it's
component parts is a basis upon
which a republic can safely rest or
long endure. 1t requires a bond
which binds together the hearts of
the people and not their bodies.-
Only to create that bond was for
US the highest object of statesman.

IRON WATER FOR PLANTs.-It is
stated that wonderful effects NAV
be obtained by watering plants
and vegetables with a solution of
sulphate of iron. Treated in this
way, beans will grow nearly
double the size, and will have
much more savory taste. The
bean seems especially benefited
by this treatment. 1t is equally
applicable to plants and flowers.

and beauty. Old nails thrown

Clubbing the Pen.

Chief Minott, of the City Police, prints in
TIE Courier, two long aud wordy letters, IN
which he strives, with somewhat more zeal
than taste, to defend himself and his force
from the real or fancied aspersions OF the
press. One OF his grievances Is that TIE
NEWS, in reporting a very disorderly gath.
ering, incidentally referred to the non
interference Of the police, and again,
that in its account Of a subsequent
and more creditably conducted meet
ing, this journal failed to praise the po-
lice for doing the duty for which they are
paid with the taxpayers money. And the
Chief is pleasedt to infer from this double-bar-
relied injury, that The News is savagely in
clined towards our friends OF the clubs and
stars, as forming 90 part OF the hated gov
'ernmeut," against which it has ''sworn
eternal vengeance" The public, we fancy,
are hardly very solicitous to hear what The
News has to say in reply to these grave
charges; and we, ourselves, for the public's
sake, will try to smother our Indignation.

For Effect.

: The New York Tribune innocently asks
this. question: 'It the Democrats propose to
.ssunite with the Republicans in undertaking
s'what seems to be vitality needed, reforms IN
.sthe government, where is the possible OBJ
election? ?" So old a stager ougbt'to know
that .ahe objection. is, that the alliance be-
tween the Liberals and Democrats will send
back to private life the Radical politicians who
grow rich on credit mobiliers, and other like
Jobs. All that they want is to keep their own
party In office. In their hearts they know
that their talk about Ku-Kluxism and a
.new rebellion" is mere buncombe.
