THIRn.TERM TALK,

The Cincinnati Gazette persists in its OPP
position to third term. In recent issue,
that paper says;
"a succession Of great precedents that
subsequent consideration has pronounced
wise has fixed a custom which has the
wei ght of law. l. has this confirming rea-
son, that moderately popular President
through the interest the gres; army of office
holders have in bis continuance, and the
vast power the public patronage gives, could
almost always procure his own renomina-
ton, or could be renominsted if he would
quietly allow it, and thus there could be no
way of change save by eleciiDg the candi-
date of the opposite party. This is what the
people would be likely TO do if President
should break over this two-term custom, of
which there is no probability"
The Gazette may have an opportunity to
demonstrate its earnestness in its opposition
to the movement to place Grant upon the
track for another term.

The Dsnsgers of the oficeholders' party
in Iowa have recalled their appointments
made for the Rev. ex-Seua' or Harlan, John
A. Logan aud Congressman Palmer and
Orr. Reason, all these persons are unre-
pentant back-sslary grSbbers, and Harlan
is, besides, proven corrup.ionist and office
buyer. Nevertheless, in recalling the invi-
tations TO these salary abbers, the Chair
man of the Republican State COMMITTEES"
says: "These gentlemen we're put on the
list because the committee were strongly re-
qussted to do so, and because they are in
good standing and loyal to the Republican
platform" The Iowa Republicans in their
platform denounced the salary-grabbers, yet
when it is deemed advisable not to have
them address the psopIe of that State in be-
half of the Republican ticket, the chairman
of the Republican committee certifes to
their good standing in the party. This in.
cident shows the sincerity of the Republi-
cans in their pretended opposition to salary
grabbing.

The Chicago Times Of the 18th inst, has
special reports from Que hundred and six
teen different points-ffty. one in Illinois,
foTtT-six in Iowa, and nineteen in Kansas
relative to the condition and prospects of
the corn crop. These reports embrace
almost every county in the great corn belt
through the States Of Illinois, Iowa, snd
Kansas, Of which Chicago is the primary
market. There is a general coincidence In
the statement that corn has suffered severely
from the droutb, and that the yield will be
considerably below The average. The re-
ports may be briefly summarized thus:
Cora much below the average, the yield
ranging from half croo' to two thirds
crop, and an average one. Potatoes are
generally poPr, the late crop especially being
small. The increase in the area planted is
expected to make Up for the deficiency in
the yield.

'FARM TO RENT FOR LESS THAN
THE TAXES"

The above, says the Memphis Register,
is a startling announcement, and will no
doubt cause those whose eyes may be at
tracted by it, TO stop aud ing lire where the
farm is, and perhaps also to ask the cause
which leads to so great a sacrifice. The
farm lies convenient 10 all the markets Of a
large city in the South, contains eight
squares Of ground under picket fence, has
q large orchard of plum, orange and fg
trees, scuppernong grape vines, ETC., of
choice qualities. This farm at former
day ard time was the source of profitable
Income to the owner. Now it is an expense
to him. The cause is the effect of Radical
rule in Louisiana. The advertisement sp-
pears in the New Orleans Repbluiean, "the
official journal of the State of Louisiana,
1t proves the lamentsble fact that the rule
of Radicalism in tina: State has destroyed
the value of real estate, in aud aroand one
of the most Aourishing and prosperous cities
ia the South. 1t is the index finger of
warning pointing the people of Mississippi
and o.her States to tho dangers which are
threatening them.

TALK THAT MEANS SOMETHING

The Republicans in their conventions in
the South are dodgiug the shack salary
steal" question-as in Virginia, Mississippi
and Texss-while In the Northwest they
are rather weakening on the subject as in
Iowa, where the chairman of the Republic
can State Committee says certain back salary
grabbers 'sre in good standing and loyal to
the Republican platform" But the Demo-
Gratis meet the issue fairly and squarely.
The Pennsylvania Democratic Convention
uttered no uncertain sound in regard to the
matter; while the Texas Democratic Con-
ventiou denounced the salary grab, and cali
ed on the Congressman from that State TO
resign, so their places might be filed with
honest men. The New York Tribune of
Aug. 2S-published before the Mississippi
and Texas conventions were held-paid the
Pennsylvania Democracy the following
tribute:
"Upon the whole, the dead Denocl attic
party is little ahead in the matter of DOM
right earnestness upon the subject of back
pay. The Republican Conventions 30 far
have denounced it whenever they could do
SO safely, not having any 'hay OUT N
Virginia, it will be remembered, however,
that the Republican Convention, being there

THE Pittsburgh Post says: "The Radi-
cal organs heresbOuts, which always go
frantic over tariff about election times,
are . little discouraged, If not disguised,
with the Great West, ON the subject which
has hitherto kept the Republican party in
power. Eleven States which elect Reput-
lican Governors and send Radical United
States Senators have proclaimed for free
trade, which rather knocks the noise out of
the theory that the Republican party favors
q protective tariff"

unto moved by Mr.. Plat, who had voted
ak times for the bill, and would do so
egain under similar circumstances, and
who proposed to defend bis action ION the
ssump,' ignored the whole subject and post
poned indefinitely resolution relating to il.
But In the Pennsylvania Democratic State
Convention at Wilkesbarre yesterday they
did q better thing. The Democrats of
Pennsylvania set their foot on Democ: at
who voted for the grab and took the money.
aMr. Spear, q member of Congress who
voted for the bill and pocketed the plJnder,
laboriug under the delusion that political
clap-trap was what it used to be, and that
conventions and parties mioht denouDce
theft while the delegates had plumber and
the candidates were thieves, was named as
permanent Chairman of the Convention.
Some dissgreeable delegates who had no
tions about things and thought it was a
safe thing to have the CoDv ntion which
was expected to denounce the salary grab
presided over by somebody other than
man who had hi- share of the grab in his
pocket, had the effrontery to oppose the sp-
pointment. L was quite an unusual thing
to do, Tut very wise and sensible thing,
and the convention after discussion of The
SuDl6et, Ia Gklo COuIco VI WutCu MI. OpSdI
undertook to defend his action but failed,
voted that he was not the kind of man to
preside over its deliberate ms.
"This Is the only thing in the hist lry Of
this business in connection with pc itical
conventions that looks at all like busiGess.
For the most part conventions have resolved
in very loose general way that the salary
grab was dishonest and dishonorable, and
that its SUPP orters were unworthy of public
confidence; but no convention before this
one at Wilkesbarre has fairly confronted it
with the necessity Of rebuking q prominent
and trusted official, staring it IN the face and
taken hold of it in good honest earnest.
The Pennsylvania Democracy, whstever
else th=y have done, have In this matter
acted courageously and honorably, and set
a good example for their party in other
States. 1t is cheap and easy to pass resolu-
tions. These people have done more than
that. They have had row about it, and
taken one of their own Representatives by
the ear and led him out. To all other con-
ventions and parties 1t may be said, go
and do hkeWise'D

PECCAvIMUs. We fear We have wrong
ed the Memphis AudLdnche in treating as
serious its continuous harping on the Fund
ing Law. We begin to suspect that its
real purpose is to bring the Memphis anti
Funding ring into general contempt. For
instance, it says Of Gov. Brown in its issue
of Sept. 5: "He has brought Tennessee
out of chaotic darkness into the light of
day by engineering the funding scheme,
by which the bondholders are to be paid
S7O,O0O,OO0 in interest without reducing
the State deb dollar" Was ever irony
30 pointed or sarcasm so grotesque?
