The editor of the Richmond Eagui-
rer has taken down suit of ancient
srmor from the walls of his sauctum,
and makes its joints rattle in a terrific
manner. Hughes, the Republican
candidate for Governor, is the man he
is trying to frighten out Of his wits.
He tells Hughes that while Virginia
is 'iOvcly in her smiles, her darken-
ing brow is to-day portentious Of the
sweeping doom OF Radicalsm, aud the
coming storm is already bowling with
hideous destruction in the rear Of
wandering Hughes and his body,
guard" We mourn for Hughes.
"The driving hail pelts Hughes
wherever he goes" docs he lift his
feeble voice in the mountains" docs
he try the fish country" kemper
''impales him at Warrenton," Braxton
''tears him to small shreds at King
George" Douglas ''chases up the frag-
ments to fredericksburg without being
able to catch them." Even the editor
Of the Enquirer cannot gaze upon this
picture Of poor Hughes flight and
sufferings without some touch Of pity.
He says: ut will make the blood run
cold to see the mangled remains Of
those disinherited children Of Virgin

the bosses Of the old mothers buckier.

and true people Of Virginia is no,c lift.

der after this warning, he is In grea
danger of hearing something drop.

The North Pole.

There is no doubt the tragic history
OF the Polaris will tend to lessen the
desire among the people of the United
States for further Arctic research The
startling termination of the expedi-
ton may, perhaps, suspend for the
present the idea of resnming the prof
ect, yet 50 far from there being any
thing in the details published to deter
the enterprise as unfeasibie. Halls
discoveries have given impulse to
Arctic exploration. It is now proved
beyond all question that the coast Of
Greenland stretches toward tho North
Pole within 800 miles OF the myster-
ious spot. The Open Polar Sea Of
Morton is no more. 1t is now known
as Polaris Bay. 1t was not until the
Polaris had reached latitude S2a l6,
that heavy ice was met, and there Is
reason to believe she could have gone
further had the opinions Of those on
board not been divided on the subject.
Hall was in favor OF going ahead, and
II will forever be matter of the deep
est regret that the attempt WAS not
made. The hypothesis that Green
land is prolonged past the North Pole
has yet to be determined, but on one
point there can he no mistake-that
the route adopted by Hayes and Kane
Is the correct one. The dangers Of
Arctic exploration, moreover, have
been greatly exaggerated. Experience
has taught sound and wholesome les
sons. The days Of navigating ice lad
en- seas have passed. Hap-hazard sug-
gestions in the construction of ships
for battling with the ice would not
now be listened to, while the severity
Of an Arctic winter dwindles down to
nothing when cOunteracted by the
scientific measures known to explorers
Of the present day. do not say that
the rigors Of the climate are less terri
BILE than they were 200 years ago, but
they are harmless when properly pre-
pared for. Indeed the occupants of
many Of the tenement houses in the
city OF New York suffer far more keen
iy the hardships Of winter than would

plorers In the vast wilderness Of ice
known as the Polar regions. The dis
covery of the North Pole and its mys-
terious surroundings is only u matter
Of time. The question is who shall be
first in the race.
1t is very clear that the time is fast
approaching when the North Pole will
no longer be n mystery.

Peaches were SO plenty in some
parts of Delaware and Maryland, and
transportation so limited, that the
luscious fruit had, in many instances,
to be sold at dime bushel, to be
turned into brandy.
Farmers living on the south side Of
the Illinois river, in Peru, Granville,
Eden and other towns in that vicinity,
state that large numbers of their sp-
pie trees present the appearance of
having been scorched by FIRE.
The farmers in some parts of Ore
gon have built grain warehouses Of
their own, whereby they save from
two to four cents on each bushel, and
they will handle enough grain the
first year to pay for the buildings and
cover all expenses.
Many farmers in Sumner Co., Kan,
are making large quantities Of hay,
with view of taking cattle to winter.
1t is generally believed that thsus-
ands of cattle intended for the Fall
market will be kept over winter in
consequence of present low prices.
The citizens of Montgomery Co,
Iowa, have been holding indigestion
meetings in Red Oak, recently, to
take action to prohibit the imPorta-
ton Of Texas, Cherokee or Indian
cattle, to devise means to prevent tho
further spread Of the Texas fever,
now raging to some extent.

We are making very moderate
statement of the case when we claim
that the ability of our female teachers,
as a class. is quite equal to that of our
male. The quick intuitions. the acute
sensibility, the tenderer conscientious
hess, and the sweeter and more magnetic
moral suasion that contribute the in
fuenee Of good and intelligent woman

the majority Of our female teachers are

IN these respects the female teacher
often has the superiority. Let her
