tident we will make something out of
the arrangement. However, | will

commence sluicing. One of my part
hers is here with me, and will return
whan | do. We are about seventy
miles from the coast ny river, between
the Sinnemary and CorSabo, and three
miles from the banks of the Corsabo.
Nearly all of the II that came with me
on the Greyhound have left. and two
more 90 tomorrow. The country is
very unhealthy. the fever and ague be-
ing the prevailing disease. of which all
three of us have had dose. 1t has
rained nearly all the time since I land

very oppressive. and it is impossible
for an American to do much work here
and keep his health. Generally speak
ing, it is a hard country: which those
who have returned will tell YOU. Will
write you when return to the mines
and make Il few clean-ups. Don't
come until you hear from me again.

This IS the opinion OF General Gar
field: IL believe we have entered
upon the business career of american
politics. We have entered upon a
period where great mass meetings
will perhaps never, during this peri
od, be what they were in the DAYS
tina, are passed. We have entered
upon period in which mere oratory
passes for little. We have entered
upon a period with an intelligent peo-
pie before us. where no man can sway
great masses of people as he pieases,
as he has done in the past. We are
entering upon period when the
men of this country are calmly and
carefully studying their own business
and industrial interests: when they
are d scussing the questions OF trade
and transportation and internal
growth"

What the Democratic party would
do with the latest amendments to the
Constitution may be inferred from
the following frank avowal of opinion
by Fosters Democrat, of Dover, n.
H. That journal says:
We were always opposed to the Four.
teenth Amendment" so called, to the
Federal Constitution In fact, we never
believed it to be an amendment in any
Just or reasonable or decent sense of the
term. And all the new so called
amendments" the Thirteenth, Four

force and fraud, which vitiates every
thing in the eye of law and justice.
The Democracy of the South are
now attempting to nullfy the Consti-
tuition and laws of the United States

the Democratic party Of the nation
once obtain control of the Federal
Government, and notification will
speedily become the rule throughout

The St. Louis Gtobe says: "One
good reason for not loosing heart, and

that in Missouri, after the first day OF
