Private and Social Wars.

The great and constant war is a
priuatc one. The idea Of a perpetual
war amongst nations would fill us
with CONSERVATION. And yet there
is war in constant operation every
where but in heaven. There are little
fighting squads in numerous neighbor-
hoods, families, schools, and even
churchea;aa i ch are the pest of socie-
ty. Neishbors--some few in most
ncighborhoods seem possessed Of the
devil in this respect, AID they seldom

same tiend is q constant c'laat in some
families, and that fathers and mothers,
husbands and wives, brothers and H;s-
ters, unclcs and aunts, abound, who
are stupid enough to get into a pas-
sion with each o:her--anl indulge in
feelings and hard words. Iou can
hardly take an ordinary walk but yon

and perhaps pulling hair like old vet

hardly g to church meeting without
soon becoming aware that it is the
church militant that has assembled,

The Poetry of Summer.

There is poetry in the hum Of bee.
when the orchards are in bloom, anl
the sun is shining in unclouded splen-
dor upon the waving meadows and til.
garden is richly spansled with sprir';
llowcrs. There is poetry in the hu.A
of the bee, because it brings back t,
US, as in a dream, the memory Of by
gone days, when our hearts were aliv"
to the happiness Of childhood--tl"
time when we could lie down upon
the green bank and enjoy the still
ness Of summer noon; when our hopes
were in the blossoms of the orchard:
our delight in the sunshine, our IN
firing ramb'cs in the meadows, al |
our perpetua! amnsementin in the scent
ed flowers. Since these days, time ha
rolled over us with sucL IL diversity o'
incidents, bringing so many changes
in our modes Of living and thinking
that we nave learned, perhaps at SON,
cost, to aalyze our feelings, and t,
say, rather than feel that there is poe
try in the hum Of bees.
But let one Of these honey laden
wanderers find his way into our apart
mcnt, and while he struggles with
frantic efforts to escape through the
closed window, we cease to.hnd pleas
ure in his busy hum,
There is poetry in the flowers that
grow in sweet prorusion upon wlhi
and uncUltivatod spots Of earth, expo
sing their delicate leaves to the trea'l
of the rude Inhabitants Of the wilder
ness, and sprea ling forth their scent
ell chlrms to the careless mountalu
winl--in the thousand, thousand lit
lie stars of beauty looking forth Ike
eyes, with m eye to look again; or
cups, that seemed formed to catch the
dcw-drops; or spiral pyramids of var

mounted upon fragile stems; or pnr-

The Ohio Constitutional Convention,
after about twelve months Of delibera-

has completed its labors and presented
a new organic law for the ratification
or rejection Of the people Of that state.
There seems TO have been a multitude
Of counsel, aud whether safety is to
come of it is question yet TO be de.
termined. The new political testament
recognized the importance and propri-
ETY. of the veto power as safeguard
against hasty legislation. 1t more
over leDgthens the terms of judges and
increases their salaries, as means to-
ward securing their independence. 1t
also forbids double taxation, and pro-
yides for applying the principle Of
minority representation. The ques-
ton Of allowing state aid TO railways is
left TO u popular vote.

TIE Memphis Appeal is assured
that the prospects for good cotton
crop On low lands from which the wa
ter has already receded are excellent.
The alluvial deposits left by the food
inject into the young plant wonderful
self-creative capacity. 1t grows with
astonishing rapidity and natures much
sooner than if the food tide of the riv-
er had not let its loan TO vitalize the
tender vegetation. Crops in great
abundance have been grown from seed
sown in June. And this circumstances
brings to mind the remarkable crops
that were grown in 1850 and 1856,
years Of overflow in the South. They
were unprecedented, by what may be
called excellent seasons. In 1850 the
cotton crop exceeded that of the pre-
vious year over 100000 bales, and in
1856 by $50, 900. Indeed, these years
are without precedent in extent of
yield and excellence of staple in the
cotton culture Of the Southern states.
There is little reason, therefore, to APP
prehend very serious falling of in
the staple in Tennessee and Mississippi.
The lands nearer the gulf will, posi-
bly,, not escape the disastrous conse-
quences of the food soon enough for
replanting But in Upper Louisiana
and the states named the prospects are
by no means discouraging.
