Garrison on sumner.

A JUST REPLY TO AN UNJUST ARRAIGNMENT
Several days ago we published brief review
of VIM. Lloyd Garrison's letter to Senator Sum-
ner rebuking him for his arragnment of Presi-
dent Grant. The following is the letter entire :
RoxBURY, June /,
Dear Mr.. Sunner:-I owe it to YOU to say.
with all the frankness which sober friendship
justifes, that have carefully read your speech
in sharp arraignment of the President, and my
conviction is that it is ill-judged, ill-timed and
10 extrayagant in its charges and bitter in its
personalities as to neutralize whatever of Just
criticism can be found in it. 1t will assuredly
serve the purposes OF the worst foes the cause
Of impartial freedom has most to fear very
many of them now rallying under the deceptive
banner of Liberal Republicansm but the loyal
liberty upholding the party with which you have
hitherto been proved to be identified will paruse
1t with deep regret il not with unfeigned aston
shment. Certainly you don represent Massa-
ehusetts in this sweeping impeachment Her
Republican people are almost unit for the re-
election of the man whom you at empt to stain
with crime and cover with infamy. You cannot
separate General Grant from the party which
put him in the Presidential chair, and which
means to keep him in it, il it is possible another
term; being satisfied as to his ability, integrity,
and patriotism, and, therefore, in stigmatizing
him as Yenal self-seeker and an uLscrupulou.
usurper you virtually pronounce it to be equally
corrupt and untrustworthy.
This you have the right to do on your own re-
sponsibility, if you must but in so doing you
will find yourself for the first time in marked
opposition to the sentiment OF Massachusetts az
its Senator in Congress and surrounded by alice
who have heretofore been your deadliest enc
mics.
Occupying, as l do, an outside position,
write this not under party bias and only be
cause feel constrained in this manner to fret
my mind
As proof of my friendship, receive it in tn,
spirit which has dictated it. Faithfully and re-
spectfully yours,
WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON.
To Hon, CHARLES SUMNER.

The Rise I'm RInnr.

Tho cause of the recent advance in breadstuffs
is thus accounted for by New York paper
In the first place, the western stock Of winter
wheat was reduced much lower than was gener-
orally supposed last Fall by the expectations,
and by the demands for home consumption
Contrary to the general expectation, it appeared
that the stock in farmers hands was reduced
very low, the supply being limited to the States
east of the Mississippi, and held for the most
part by well-to-do, wealthy producers who could
afford to hold TO their stock in expectation of
rise. Then came an unexpected demand for
Southern consumption, which, in fact, revealed
the weakness of the market
The receipts at the Western market showed a
large falling off as compared with last year AS
this partially attributed to the effects Of the
Chicago fire, it occasioned comparatively little
surprise. The receipts of wheat at the lake and
river ports from the lst of January to MAY 4th
were SO, 445 219 bushels less than at the cores
ponding period last year. In England the
stocks are running down, and, although the ac-
counts of the growing crops are favorable the
market is unusually firm for this time of the
year, and shows an upward tendency. Germany
is purchasing grain and -four, and 80 also is
France. Even in Russia there is comparative
scarcity in some markets, and supplies have to
be shipped to Stettin, which usually ships large
quantities OF grain to England.

participating in the Children's Jubilee will march

given to the public from which any definite idea

twenty-four schools are named in the line Of

WHY MOT aREELEYi

Our New Departure organ in Wilmington, the
Advertiser, demands to know Of its party, to-day,
why not Greeley7" 1t argues that his former
opposition to Democracy is no valid objection
now, for the reason that when he opposed it, he
was right in doing so, as it has since virtually
admitted, by abandoning the positions which
caused his antagonism. This is a severe argu-
ment, to be addressed by Democratic news
paper to the Democratic voters of Delaware, and
yet it is one not readily silenced. 1t is true that
Horace Greeley combatted the Democracy when
they we're the friends OF Slavery and the adhe-
rents OF the Slave Power. But since then they
have acknowledged their error in that course OF
action, and gone very much farther. They have
assented to Aboliton-to Universal Suffrage-to
Equal Civil Rights. How, then can they COM
plain of Greeley who only opposed them for
characteristics which they have now cast of, and
who is ready and willing to wed them, now, with
out asking questions or making obiections'

Frederick Douglass, editor Of the Ne,o M

Grants recent letter to the Washington Colored
Civil Rights Convention, says We entirely mis-
North and South if they do not accept this letter
as the fullest assurance that, 30 far as Gen.
Grant is concerned, they certain to have their
just and equal rights, whenever those rights can
be secured to them by law. Abraham Lincoln

Rditorial Extracts From the Great DaMIes
WHY WILSON WAS CHOSEN OVER coLrAx.

WHY WILSON WAS CHOSEN OVER coLFAx.
tf'rom the N. Y. Herald.l
We may, however dismiss this presumption
and satisfactorily account for We choice of Will
son in the place of Colfax on higher grounds OF
expediency. Senator Wilson, as was suggested
yesterday, has made himself a prime faSorite Of
the Southern States. They became, indeed, his
fast friend from his first political mission among
them preliminary to the active work in Congress
of Southern reconstruction, In the next place
he has become prime favorite among the
workingmen, as was made manifest in the work
ingmens mass meeting lately held in this city,
by which he was proclaimed the workingmen q
candidate for Vice President. And again, the
detection of Mr. Summer has had some effect
among the old-lne abolition radicals of Massa-
chusetts and OF the other New England States,
which the Philadelphia Convention may have
deemed il expedient to neutralize in making
Wilson the right hand man Of Grant in this
campaign. And yet, again, while Cofax has
lost the gloss of his campaign OF 1868, Wilson
comes forward with general personal popular
ity which, in its freshness and vitality, will
strengthen even General Grant.
SOME HOPE FOR THE TREATY YET.
From the N. Y. Herad..l
There is chance, at length, OF a settlement
OF this muddled aud confused question. Earl
Granville made highly important oommunica-
ton to the House Of Lords last night. He read
letter from Mr.. Schenck, in which the United
States Minister in London affirmed that the sup
Elemental article to the Treaty Of Washington
is amply sufficient TO exclude the indirect claims,
and authorized the statement to be made al
coming from Washington. Lord Derby read a
letter from Sir Stafford Northcote, in which that
gentleman states that the Joint High Commits
sion in Washington understood that a promise
was given that the American claims for indirect
damages would be withdrawn. Earl Granvilles
action was hailed with loud cheers. and in the
face Of the enjoyment Of the national gloriioa-
tion Earl Russell Withdrew his motion for an ad

A TeuchIna Incident


During one Of the most tremendous snow
storms ever witnessed here last winter, writes a
Newfoundland correspondent, poor widow left
her home in search OF her only son, a boy of
sixteen years Of age who had gone out in the
morning wood-cutting with several others. Un-
able to bear her anxieties, the poor mother
rushed out into the binding snow drift, hoping
to find her boy, and that her feeble arms might
in some way help him homeward. After strug-
CLING on for several miles she met the party.
who were on their return. By this time she was
utterly exhausted and unable to retraoe her
steps. What was to be done She sank down
in the snow, worn out with fatigue and hunger
The little party OF boys were quite unable to
bear her among them homeward, and to remain
with her would have been certain death to ALL
Ii was agreed that they should cover her as
well as possible and retrun to the village for
help. Her son, however, nobly refused to leave
his mother, though to remain was in all proba-
bility certain death. When the lads gave the
alarm in the village number Of men, at the
peril Of their lives, went to rescue the mother
and her son. Their efforts to find them were for
several days frutless. They we're finally found
under cliff, frozen to death and locked in one
anothsr's arms "In death they were not divi-
ded." 1t would be difficult to inda more touch
ing instance of self-sacrifcing affection than
this one, taken from "short and simple annals
