Professor Shaler thus speaks Of these esti-
mable people; "The great harms, with their
little steeples, quaint weathercocks and gay
colors show that the farmers heart Is In his
work. for mon only decorate the things they
love, unless 1t Is to follow new fashion.
Very often we see that II has been the life
work OF some simple mind TO build the barn,
and his pride In the result Is shown by his
name carved or painted thereon. In Massa-
chusetts aud New York the farm buildings do
not usually represent half the money that Ia
put into the house; what goes there Is spent
grudgingly. But our good Pennsylvania Ger
mans seem to build their barns first, lavish
their money upon them, and then take what
Is left and build rather humble home, so
placed that they may gloat over their garner
all their lives. Just now the barns were full
10 their ridge-poles with hay and grain; from
them came the cloud Of dust aud whirring
sound OF the threshing -machine, or, oftener,
the rhythmlcal monotony Of the beating fails.
Clumsy wagons, rising at either end Ike the
PROV and poop OF old Dutch ships, 20 lum-
bering down TO the towns with their loads Of
grain. In this thickly-peopled land, where
every acre has q Jealous owner, we had to
journey dozen miles In search Of camp
ground. AZ length we got into wood, where
we hoped to pass quiet Sabbath. We were
far from the main road. but, though we
slipped In after dark, seemingly unseen.
every one within Ave miles seemed to know
of our presence before morning. BY dawn
the woods were thick with people; and all
day we lived as publicly as the champion In a
prize-ring. They stared hungrlly at US ut
meal times, pried into our wagons, end cav
ored to get Into our tents, became perfectly
intolerable In every way. Few of them
seemed able or willing to speak English, aud
whom addressed In German, answered slowly
and shyly. Their heavy faces showed
staring curiosity, which the most energetic
remembrance could hardly change for an-
other finally asked the least unintelligent
looking man II he was not ashamed of him
self and his countrymen. He answered, In
effect, that there rarely happened anything
new In their district so they must make the
most OF present opportunities, and stared
on. They were sturdy-looking creatures,
with nothing Of the trim lankness which be-
longs to Americans generally; heavy, long
faces, unintellectual but kindly, showing no
trace of vice. Tho women were as robust
as the men, and showed the strong tendency
to look like them so common among the
lower classes Of Europe, They are, for all
the world, like any throng Of Rhlneland Ger
ma1s. Their language, although with a
share Of Americanisms, 10, apparently, only
the dialect which one hears, With innumera-
bic slight variations, all along the Rhine

The New York World, In long double
loaded article, informs Its readers that tho
two natural allies OF the Democratic party at
the present time are the Liberal Republicans
and the farmers oranges, aud then proceeds
to lay down tho Democratic law and gospel
as follows; Democracy, as q distinctive po-
htical tenet, rests upon a profound conyic-
ton OF the capacity Of man for selt-govern-
ment, and IN equally profound sense Of
the constant tendency Of puliti,a. power
to steal from the many to the few. It Is
the chief aim Of Democracy to curtail and
circumscribe the sphere Of governmental
action. Democracy does not look upon man
as wild beast that needs keeper, or as q
child that needs leading strings, but as an
intelligent being capable Of self-instruction. y
A portion of this reads rather funny when
we consider the history Of the Democratic
party, and another portion sounds very In
consistent when we consider the present sit-
uation Of affairs. In the first place, the
record Of the party shows that II and Its
leaders have regarded some four or Ave MIL
hons OF people In the South rs worse than
wild beasts. It dashed them, sold them,
hunted them with bloodhounds, held them a.
chattels, and, In word, considered that they
had no rights which white men were bound

gle between Gov. Davis and Senator Flauna-
gan for the control Of affairs, In which tho
official, political and personal friends Of the
latter are brought forward into unenviable
publicity. The most interruptions means
have been resorted TO to lnjure them; charges
Of the basest and most unfounded character
have been made against them, and they have
been subjected TO no little expense and
trouble in placing themselves right before
the Government. In the meantime Senator
Flanagan has done little or nothing. While
he Ia engaged in measuring lumber at Flan-
nagan's mills his friends and political sup
porters have been struggling for the prcser-
walton Of their official existence. That they
have succeeded Is not matter Of credit to
him, for while Davis has been whipping him
over their backs he has remained as indiifer-
cnt to the fight as he would II he had had no
interest In IL.

Governor Davis has returned to Texas,
having failed to accomplish the object OF his
trip to Washington and New York, 10 very
bad humor, both with the Administration and
the capitalists OF the North. The particular
object referred TO was the negotiation Of a
loan on the bonds of his State, and subsidiary
to this was his effort to obtain the removal
Of certain Federal oillce-holders, including
the postmaster at Galveston and the United
States marshal, At the same time he found
II necessary to explain his inconsistent and
validating course regarding the pardon or
release of tho Indian criminals, Satanta and
Big Tree. While Texas Is admittedly one of
the richest States In the Union, and Is COM
paratively free from debt, there were reasons
probably connected with the reputation OF the
negotlator which induced the New York cap
italists to reject all offers Of the bonds, and
the same reasons undoubtedly induced the
heads OF the several Executive Departments
not to make the removals asked for and de-
manded by him. II Is true that he had filed with
the departments certain prirdie letters writ
ten by the offending otlice-holders to friends
relating to confidential matters, and aiiidavits
which were intended to be terrible In their
damning effect. But, strange as II may ap-
pear, the obdurate heads Of the Departments
aforesaid were convinced that man who
would resort to such cowardly means to gain
his points, who would expose to the public
the priyacies of confidential and friendly let
tiers, was not 10 be trusted. They were fur
ther convinced that man capable Of the
dllly-dallying and acknowledgement to say
falsshoods-Of which Davis had been guilty
regarding satauta and Big Tree, was not a
proper person to control the patronage Of the
Government. They remembered that the
Government faith was pledged to the Indians
In certain matters, and that owing to the
perhdy and solhshness OF Davis, that faith
has been broken. They, therefore, very pro.
perry found reason to suspect the honesty Of
his declarations In other respects. Their ap-
probation OF his character was confirmed
when he offered to barter his power over the
Indian prisoners In return for the removal Of
his enemies.
Stripped OF all subterfugc, and speaking In
plain terms OF this disgracoful affair, we are
compelled TO explain that II !, merely strug-

The GENTLEMEN who are cndeavoring to
secure the formation Of new State ont of a
portion Of Tennessee, Mississippi and Ken
tueky do not appear to be very successful in
their efforts. The convention at Jackson, a

SINCE his NOMINATION the Virginia State
Journals have endeayorcd TO belittlc and
sheer at Colonel Hughes. There Is, however,
one notable exception, the Norfolk Journal,
which says; at is useless to attempt to un-
derrate Colonel Hughes, simply because he
has Joined the Radical party, or the strength
with which he will be supported. 1t Is better
for us to look at his true position and strength,
so that we may meet him successfully. 1t is
better to grid ourselves for long and ar
duous contest, 80 that we may not give out
by the way" This Is the proper spirit In
which to approach and deal with the coming
