An exchange, in speaking of
our agricultural interest re-
marks that the time has arriv-
ed in the history of our coun-
try when the farmer, in intel
lect, in culture, in general
knowledge, should be in the
front rank of men. The farm
should now produce such men
as Cincinnatus, who was taken
from the retirement of farm
life to rule an empire; as
Washington, who was called
from rural pursuits to COM
mand armies and govern a re-
public, as jefferson, who found
time from his farm ito draw
up the text book of freedom
and setit before the world to
teach liberty" We might go
on and enurmate a host Of great
men who drew in their inspira-
ton from the pure life of the
country and found time from
the multiform duties of the
farmer to study and enlarge
their minds, until they were
able to step upon the stage Of
public life and write their
names upon the scroll Of fame.

Organization Of the Democratic
Party.
Frain the Richland Beacon

TdTly.
From the Richland Beacon.l
A short time since we copied
an article on the subject of a
reorganization of the Demo
cratic party from the Ouachita
Telegraph, and added our
endorsement thereto, and we
hope that these suggestions
will be promptly acted upon
by the leading members of the
party and that the movement
will be continually agitated
by the press of the State until
a thorough organization is ef-
fected.
We consider a Democratic
victory in the Presidential
campaign Of 1876 as certain, if
wisdom is displayed in the
selection Of candidates and a
sound Democratic platform of
principles, and a guarantee Of
carrying out these principles
in the administration of the
affairs of government. The
people are tired Of and disgust
ed with the corruption, inefR-
cheney and laundering folly
of those in whose hands they
have placed the reins Of gov
eminent, and are determined
to discharge the present and
employing other public ser.
wants so that patriotism is
sure to triumph in the redemp-
ton of the country in the end,

are able to rally the true pa
triots of all sections and par
ties under one banner and
conduct them out of the will
derness into which the blum
, dering demagogues, whom IN

. placed at their head, have led
! them. The Democratic party
lis the nucleus around which
alone the body can be gather.

From the New York World.l
Cheyenne, w. T., April 23.-
The miners taken out by the
troops from the Union Stacks
ade, Clusters Gulch, at the
Black Hills, are now on their
way from Fort Laramie, and
will arrive here tomorrow.
Three Of the party came in
here this evening, on the stage,
in advance of their compan>
ions. They bring back with
thems efficient placer gold and
aud silver-bearing quartz TO
demonstrate that under more
favorable auspices mining can
be made profitable. There was
two feet Of snow in the Hills at
the time they left and they re-
port the winter as being unu-
sually severe, rendering it all
but impossible to do success
full prospecting. Itsnowed for
eight days previous to their
leaving the Hills. They left
OH the 10th, and arrived at
Fort Laramie under military
escort on the 18th.
The party consisting of six
teen men, a woman and a boy,
are in good health, and all
unite in praise of the agricul-
tural, mineral, and timber res
sources of the Black Hills, and
they desire to return. They
fully corroborate previous res
ports as to the superior quality
and size Of the pine timber,
and say that there are many
valleys, where oak and other
varieties of timber are abun-
dant. They were released by
| the military Immediately on
their arrival at Fort Laramie.
On account of the hate of the
military to remove them from
the Hills one half Of their outs
fit and cattle were left behind.
| From the time they entered
the Hill until their departure
they never saw an indian,
They report that elk, deer, and
mountain sheep and wolves are
abundant, and have seen bear
tracks in the Hills. Beaver is
also found on the streams
The valleys are well watered.
The cattle and horses brought
into the Hill by the miners gol
fat on the grasses found in the
valleys and bills. The soil in
| valleys is rich and admirably
adapted for agricultural pur.
poses, and so far as the coun,
try has been examined, it fully
sustains the reports made Of il
by General Custer. The min.
ers describe the scenery of the
mountain and valleys as being
picturesque far beyond descrip.
ton.
