The Originator of American
Oranges.

William Saunders, the man who inaugu-
rated the order of the Patrons Of llusban-
dry in America, says a correspondent of
the Chicago Times, is genial, unostenta-
tious, sensible Scotchman. He Is upward
of 60 years of age, man of large frame,
something above medium height, with gray
hair, a beard almost white and, although
his complexion is rather dark, he has the
hghtest blue eyes ever saw-eyes which
would delight the transcendental Alcott,
who believes that the blue-eyed will inherit
the earth. He has high and somewhat
retreating forehead, nose which evinces
strength of character, and n rather sober
expression of countenance, as a man of
thought rather than man who il c0ntroll-
ed by his feelings. His bearing is such
that he elicits good will from others !;
him in profound and even tender regard.
Mr. Saunders came to this country in lSi7,
Prior to that time he had been engaged in
horticultural and agricultural pursuits in
and about London, where he also organlz-
ed several societies of persons engaged in
occupations similar to his own. For sew
eral years past he has been, as he is at pre-
sent, the superintendent of the gardens of
agriculture. He insists that there is a
gross misunderstanding in the popular
mind as to the main purpose of the gran
gers. Instead of being, as generally sup
posed, an organization to fight monopolies
and to control political action, the original
intention, at least, was merely forpurposes
of simple education and business, for in
struction in horticulture and agriculture,
and for economy and efficiency in their pri-
vate business transactions.

THE NEW SENATOR'S.

Within the past few weeks four elections
FOR United States Senator have taken place
namely, in California, Ohio, Virginia and
Kansas, and one more N Mississippi, is on
the tapis. The result, thus far, has had no
effect upon the political complexion of that
body. 1t is understood, of course, that,
with the exception of Kansas, these cleo
;tions, are for the term commencing March
4th, 1875-that Is, for the forty-fourth
Congress. In Ohio, Allen G. Thurman,
democrat, is reelected. AS much as we
dislike his politics, we are rcjoiced, so long
'as a democrat was to be selected, that he
was the chosen of his party. He is a
statesman sans peur et sans reprOche, and
stands foremost in the Senate for ability
and integrity. So far as Ohio is concerned.
the situation is unchanged. In Virginia,
Withers, variously denominated as demo-
crat, conservative, or opposition, is elected
to succeed John f. Lewis, republican. He
is at present tlieutenant-goyernor of the state,
and by profession, we believe, physician; +;
and certainly is man without more than
local reputation, without knowledge OF
politics, or of congressional or. even, legis-
lative experience. This loss is more than
made up by the election OF Newton Booth
from California, who, as the present gov
,ernor thereof and otherwise, has already
made for himself a name and fame COM
mensurate with the Union. Educated as
"a business man, he was, few years ago,
elected to the California state senate. At
that time, he was a merchant doing an ex-
tensive business, of whom the Central Pa
ciic railroad company bought large pro-
portion of their supplies. Hisprohts from
their trade alone was immense. A bill, in
which they were largely interested, was
pending before the legislature, which Mr.
Booth opposed by an able and forciblt
speech, following it up with his vote. The
preached by the agents and officers of thu
company, who more than intimated tina
unless his opposition to the measure wa
withdrawn, their trade would be. His an

not my principles 1t is needless to say
that neither his opposition or their trad
was withdrawn. This illustrates the man
ner of man he Is. He is a republican o
the right stamp with his face sternly sc
against monopolies, frauds and corruption
In Kansas, Ex-Governor James NJ. Harvey
republican, is elected to succeed the noto
rious Caldwell. If We may believe telc
graphic adyces, and we sincerely trust W
can, his personal character and reputation
are unblemshed, no stain or, even, susp
cion of corruption ever sullied his skirts
while his election is regarded, in Kansas
as a triumph of honesty, integrity, purit
and fairness, over the baser elements In tn

The Mobile and Ohio railway is one Of
the longest in the United States, and
stretches from Mobile TO Columbus, Ky.
The Mobile and Montgomery road is link
in another chain of railway that connects
Mobile with the West. The New Orleans
and Mobile railway, one of the best ap-
pointed roads in the South, connects the
two great cities of the gulf. The Grand
Trund railway now building, and of which
sixty miles are competed, will tap the iron
and coal regions of the state at Brming-
ham. and pass through vast forests of vala-
able pine timber The Northwestern road
will pass through the finest cotton-growlng
region of the South, and will reach to He
lena, Ark, where it will connect with the
Kansas City and Memphis road, and will
make Mobile the great port of export and
import for a large part OF the northwest.
The United States government is busily en-
gagged IN improving harbor of Mobile,
and thus rendering it fully capable of
playing the important part which awaits il
at an early day.
The great water route which nature has
formed between the Mississippi and the
Gulf needs only little effort and expense
to become practicable at all seasons of the
year. 1t iR proposed to connect the Big
bee river with the Tennessee by a canal,
ten miles long, Sem the rombigbee to
Bear Creek an enterprise which would
cost only $6Oe.00O, and an appropriation
for which haa already been asked of Con-
gress, 1t Is also proposed to deepen the
Goose river and connect by a canal with
the Tennessee, and the deepening of the
former river between Mobile and Rome is
already in progress under the direction of
an Incorporated company The project of
a ship canal across The Peninsula of Flori-
da is also urged, and will doubtless receive
the attention Of the general government

NEW YORK, August 22.-The Tribune says, in
speaking of M0ultons statement, certainly Ii IL
very far from justifyiDg the fears OF Beecher's
friends or exuitant prophesies OF his enemies.

of the situation leas es the posture of affairs b-
sJantially unchanged. Those who believed in

ments must be content TO wait awhile longer. 1t
is evident that the assailants discharged their
worst missiles at the opening OF the engage
IDent. Meanwhile the case remains before the
same patient public which has followed 80 long
with scrrowful curiosity. Incredible weaknesses
have been disclosed in 1t and terrible blunders
have been made by the defense at every stage Of
Its progress. But we mistake the wisdom and

refuses to publish the statement, as 1t cannot
see that 1t throws any new light on the dismal
affair to which IL relates.
THE WORLD SAYS:
Not one item of actual evidence or Trustworthy
evidence has been brought forth by Moulton,
which adds new difficulty or Inconsistency to
the explanation already put forth by Bsecher
in bis narrative and cross examination.
THE HERALD,
in concluding long article says: We fam would
have believed the great clergyman had never
fallen. We would fsin believe 1t now If we
escspe out OF the meshes which bind him. MouI-
ton, pressed TO speak by onslaughts Of Beecher
and Beecher's friends, has spoken at last, and
panied as We are at the result, we cannot disre-
gard the fact that the Plymouth pastor is
crushed, unless this terrible witness against him
can be shown TO be monster Of villainy, du-
plicity, and fslsehood.
THE SUN SAYS:
MoultOn produces nothing that Is equivalent
to confession of adultery ON the part of
Beecher, and his explanation of the blackmail-
ing affair IL not satisfactory. He shows, how
ever, that up to the very last moment, in fact
up 10 July Is, 1874, long after Beecher discov-
cred that he had been blsckmailed, he was
writing him letters of the most affection ate and
coDhdiDg character. We do not see that this
statement will change anybody's opinion upon
the main question.
