session, and when our labors shall have
closed.
The motion to adjourn until 10 tomorrow
was then put and carried, and the convention
separated with enthusiastic manifestations
regarding this agreeable session.
PHILADELPHIA, June 5.-The question of
the Vice Presidency was canvassed with a
great deal of feeling before and after the adj
Journment OF the convention.
The indications are that Senator Wilson
will be nominated on the second ballot, and
his friends are sanguine on this point. The
Pennsylvania delegation have waited upon
him, and will cast their full vote for him.
This action was resolved upon in caucus to-
day.
1t was rumored, and in some quarters be-
leved, that COlfax had written a letter, which
is in possession of one of the delegates, with
instructions, in case of certain contingencies.
to withdraw his name.
The Close colored delegates in the Virginia
delegation have kicked in the traces, and re-
solved to 60 for Colfax.
The committee on platform was in session
until long after midnight Their delbera-
tions have been kept in profound secrecy.
They are to report at q. IN. tomorrow to
the general committee

Judge Matthews ON Greeley.

Hon. Stanley Matthews, the temporary
President of the Cincinnati Convention, is
out in a second letter replying to the charge
of inconsistency brought against him for re-
fusing to support Greeley. He justifies HIM
self in these sharp words:
1.-THE nomination was the result, evident
ly, of bargain and intrigue, brought about by
professional politicians whose reputation is
fiy-blown, perverting the whole purposes and
work of the convention, and reversing the
original intent of its call. Looking at these
influences which presided at the nomination,
as likely, in case of success at the election. to
survive and dominate the actual Administra-
ton, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that
Reuben Fenton and Frank Blair and those of
that ilk are the gentlemen to whom we are
asked to commit the cause of political reform
and OF sound government. Ihave come, as
yet, under no such obligation as that. If
have, l am not ashamed to say that repu-
date it,"
And yet Mr.. Greeley is "Reform" can
ddate.

The Ku-IxIuX Bill.

We cannot account for the ridiculous blum.
der into which so many of our exchanges
have fallen with regard to the Act of Con.
gress passed April 20, 1871, commonly called
the Ku-Klux Bill" We see it stated a
| dozen times day that the Ku-Klux bill will
expire by limitation at the end of the pres
ent session of Congress, and since the House
! refused to suspend the rules to take up the
supplementary bill passed by the Senate,
there are abundant congratulations over what
is taken to be the lend of Federal interior
cnce in the Sonth. The New York Tribune,
which has shown singular capacity for blum
derins since Mr.. Greeley's withdrawal, some
ten days ago had two Washington dispatches
about the expiration of the Ku-Klux law, and
one gushing editorial on the same subject.
In point OF fact there are two separate acts
OF Congress remaining in full force and effect,
which were passed for the suppression of the
ku-kluX Outrages. The Act of MAY 3lst.
1870, will cover almost any ordinary case OF
Ku-kluxing, and the Act Of April Goth, 1871,
strikes directly at the conspiracy, and makes
it rebellion. The courts have held both acts
to be constitutional, and something like one
hundred and fifty ku-kluX outlaws are now
In the penitentiary who have been indicted,
tried, and convicted under the several opera
tive sections. The fourth section of the Act
of April Goth, 1871 j, gives to the President the
power to suspend the writ of habeas corpus
in insurectionary districts after due procla-
nation. This clause of the Act expires by
limitation with the adjournment of the pres
cnt session of Congress, but all other Sec
tons remain just as before. There was no
necessity for the suspension of the writ of
habeas corpus except in districts where the
local judges were supposed to be in sympa-
thy with the ku-klux. With the writ of
habeas corpus restored the assassins are in
precisely the same condition that they were
before, subjected to be arrested by tbs same
processes and tried in the same courts. The
military and naval forces of the United States
are still available for the purpose of suppress
sing Instruction and assisting the United
States Marshals in. serving the processes of
the United States Courts.
When, therefore, the Washington Patriot
goes into ecstacies over the refusal of the
House to take up the supplementary bill
passed by the Senate (the effect of which, if
it became law, wOula be merely to keep alive
the expiring clause sof the fourth section of
the Act of April Goth, 1879 and invites the
eXiled Ku-KluX to return ''to the fraternity
for which honest hearts yearn," we think
that it is not acting with proper discretion.
There are ten or twelve men now supposed
to be in Canada whom the United States
Marshal for South Carolina would be most
happy to see, and if they ever get the "glad
tidings" which the Patriot sends them per-
haps they may unwittingly return and step
into the jurisdiction of the United States Cir
cult Court. In that event they would soon
have authentic information as to whether the
ku-klux act had expired or nOt.--BaAimore

Horace on Sugar and Cotton.

Pig-iron, since his nomination, has had but
lew opportunities to give opinions on farming
matters. His last is in reply to inquiries from
parties in Alaska, in regard to sugar, cotton
etc. He says:
1t IS unquestionably matter of extreme
Importance in sugar culture to make Judi
cious selection of seed. Most planters are
too negligent in this important particular. /
find, from experience, that the lump of the
white variety, commonly termed "crushed
sugar." is the most profitable in the long
run. Among the many savings found by
the use OF this variety may be named the
outlay in grinding machinery, vacuum pans,
steam trains, open kettles, lime, bi-sulphate
and the cost of wood for boiling and, fur
thermore, the army worm never attacks this
variety.
In regard to grating" and "budding,"
/ find it pays, if practiced with due caution
at the proper seasons. Grating should not
be attempted while the sugar berries are
forming, as it causes them to drop during the
months of December and January in this
climate. Budding and grating are the order
of the day for the practical sugar farmer.
The nursery is kept well swept and watered
during grating. If the sugar berries have
not granulated cut slantangular cuts in the
parent vine, and insert about six inches of
tic graft, tucH smear WIN melteQ fOSln and
cotton seed oil.
The vine arrives at maturity early in the
spring; the sugar berries are then at the
greatest stage of perfection When fully
matured, the humps are gathered into barrels
by the use OF machines costing not over one
dollar per hundred. But some of the bright
est intellects of the cOuntry-in the sugar line
-use--as L do--a patent machine which
picks the Jumps from the vine free from
burrs, and does not throw scraps of blue pa
per in amongst the sugar, as is the case with
sugar grown in the customary way-thus
avoiding the continual presence of those dis
agreeable scraps of blue paper in our coffee
and tea.
In regard to the best seed for cotton, l
find after many years experience that the
brand known as "Lonsdale, 40 ytls. 4x4," is
the best. l plant the entire bolt, in hills
about ten feet apart. l make frames for the
vines to run on, and never use subsoil
ploughs or manure, as the first tears the cot
ton and the latter imparts bad smell to it
which the ladies object to. When the cotton
begins to show, L water freely with bichloride
of lime to bleach it. 1 then graft the cotton
on ounce stocks. AS soon as the graft is
well started, and the vine is on the run, /
place thin cypress planks-planed smooth
at intervals of foot apart. The cotton as
it natures coils itself around the planks in
neat folds, and when fully grown, all that is
necessary to gather the crop is sharp saw,
well ground; with this cut in proper lengths
label, and it is ready for market. II. G.

BosToN, June 3.-The following letter has
appeared in print

appeared IN print:
RoXBURY, June l..
DEAR Mr.. SUMNER | owe it to you to
say, with all the frankness which sober
friendship justifes, that have carefully read
your speech in sharp arraignmcnt of the
President, and my conviction is that it is ill
judged, ill-timed, and so eXtravagant in its
charges and bitter i'll its personalities as to
neutraliZc whatever of Just criticism can be
found in it. 1t will assuredly serve the pur-
poses of the worst foes the cause OF impartial
freedom has most to fear, very many OF them
now rallving under the deceptive banner of
Liberal Republicanism but the loyal liberty
unfolding the party with which YOU have
hitherto been proved to be identified will Pc
ruse it with deep regret, if not with unfeigned
astonishment. Certainly you do not represent
Massachusetts in this sweeping impeach-
ment. Her Republican people are almost a
unit for the reelection of the man whom you
attempt to stain with crime and cover with
infamy. You cannot separate General Grant
from the party which put him in the Presi-
dental chair, and which means to keep him
in it, ii it is possible, another term being
satisfied as to his ability, integrity, and pa
triotism, and, therefore, in stigmatizing him
as venal self-seeker and an INSCRIPTIONS
usurper you virtually pronounce it to be
equally corrupt and Enthusiastically.
This you have the right to do on your own
responsibility, if you must, but in so doing
you will find yourself for the first time in
marked opposition to the sentiment of Mas
sachusetts as its Senator in Congress and sur
rounded by allies who have heretofore been
your deadliest enemies.
Occupying, as do, an outside position, L
write this not under party bias, and only be-
cause / feel constrained in this manner to
free my mind.
AS proof of my friendship, receive ii in the
spirit which has dictated it. Faithfully and
respectfully yours,
WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON.

LITERARY CHIT-CEAT.

In INMANCHEsrER, ENGLAND, the Public Free Library
had over two million calls for books in the past
year. There were 1887 volumes added to the
library
The EPHEMERAL BOOKS Of pictures that used to
be issued for Christmas presents are every year
giving way more and more to handsome editions oi
books Of permanent value.
ONE OF THE LEADING wants of the past few years
has been collection OF the constitutions of the
States, which were not many years in arrears. The
last edition published was in 1864 and even this
has been some time out of print. We now have
the promise OF three rival publications to supply
this want. First, and already issued, is DR.. F. b.
Hough's american Constitutions" with elaborate
introductions and notes in the Of each State,
embracing an account OF each successive cOnstitu-
ton adopted, and the vote upon the rejected ones
This work forms two bulky volumes OF nearly 900
pages each, illustrated by the engraved seals OF the
States, and published by Weed, Parsons 4 Co.,
Albany. Next, we are promised collection OF all
the constitutions in one volume to contain, like
the preceding, the latest fundamental law Of the
reconstructed States, and to be issued shortly by
A. s. Barnes 4 Co. And still another edition OF
American constitutions is in the government press
at Washington, which is to contain in quarto
volume, all the Colonial charters and successive
constitutions of each State from the earliest period
to date.
THE FOLIO has so far disappeared that hardly
anything is now published in that shape in Eng.
land except Blue Books, and the folio editions,
even Of the best writer's OF the last century, are
sold In the shops for about the price OF waste paper
"a COMEDY OF TERRoRs,n by James De Mile,
forms the twenty-1fth number OF Osgood's library
of novels. 1t is a remarkable story of love and
adventure, in which are TWO herOines and two
heroes of very strongly marked characters, who
play at cross purposes and irighten each other ia
death in the most narrowing manner until they
find out the truth, and get happily married in the
good Old orthodox way.
OWING TO THE boston FIRE the publication OF
the magazine, ola and New Is postponed until
the 2Sth OF December.
FATHER BURKE intends to publish his lectures
in answer TO Mr.. Froude in book form. p. N.
Haverty will be the publisher OF this book on his
own account. Father Burke hopes that no other
publisher will deprive him Of his royalty in the
book by printing rival editions.
