conduct OF the STATESMAN. Mr., Fleming, "
of the Constitutional Convention, has written, :,
to the Comanche CHG, stating thai, il, did !,
the STATESMAN gross injustice. Moreover,
it is wholly untrue that the STATEsNAfSeveI

THE New York Herald gives the follow
ing on the eastern Question: y - !, -
SAN Italian comic paper touches the
trouble in Turkey in recent cartoon. in'
Five noisy little rascals--BosnIa, Servia, oa
Herzegovina, Montenegro and Albania--are all
kicking and pounding and raising shindy ",
generally at the door Porte) Of the Grand
Signior. But the old Lady Diplomacy
stops their fun to point out to theni'a giant e'ai
ogre sleeping with one eye open in a. dafksar
ened corner, his frightlul scaly hand loosely ri,
grasping a badly hacked but dangerous
looking sword OF enormous proportions. -
She tells the youngsters that that fellow iss 2
called the Eastern Question, and watnsass
them that if they continue their rumpusy Va
they will wake him up-a contingency that
she evidently contemplates with dismay."

THE New York Graphic does not name
the Examiner or Telegraph, hut says OF
them that the newspaper which is servile to
the dictation of party, which has no judg.
ment of its own, and is ready to nod il
Cesar only winks, has no proper place in
journalism except at the foot of the back
stairs down which its orders come. To fol
low party as a believer in the Grand Lama
follows his dictates in Thibet, to have no
independent criticism and no suggestion,
inevitably dooms a journal to loss of infu-
ence as we'll as loss of self-respect. No
journal that does so can live, except under
a government where the press receives all
its income as well as its impulse from the
party in power. The right and only legiti-
mate way is to uphold the party in the gen.
eral interests of which newspaper works
when it is right and to oppose it when
wrong. The Boston Herald, when speak
ing of the distinction between party
journal and party organ. says ssrlhhe lh or
gan always goes by the label and praises and
condemns without regard to merit. Thus
we call Morton a demagogue, while we
the spirit and work of Tilden,
the former being but sersile follower, ut
terly subdued to party discipline, and the
latter of a,eriticislng turn of mind, willing
to reform what is bad and to support only
what is fair and good. The more lndepend-
ence there is in parties, the better it will be
for everybody inside and outside of politics
and inside and outside of newspaper life. 8.

OUR venerable neighbor tells US that s'the
result of the action of the Constitutional
Convention has been to gag the press, and
that whether the Convention prefers dark
ness to light because their deeds are evil is
not fully known" We quote these express
sions that they may not escape the eagle
ken of the Examiner. The Convention is
constituted mainly of Changers or of men
selected as candidates by the Changers, aud
the Examiner is expected to howl when our
antique contemporary intimates that they
''prefer darkness to light" -...r
The STATESMAN will continue to publish
every day the full preceedingssof the Con-
ventibn. and though paid nothing directly
by the Convention, receives by each mail
practical assurances of the fact that if the
Convention fail to furnish few friends OF
each member of--the body with transcript
of the. proceedings of the learned body OF
law -givers, the masses of intelligent people
know how to inform themselves.i G

Sturgeon as !Shad Protectors,

The fishermen along the Hudson
having refused to remove their nets
for twenty-four hours, once week,
in order to allow the shad chance
to move up the river where they are
in the habit ofspawning. Seth Green
has hatched forty thousand young
sturgeon, which he has placed in the
river, and which number he intends to
increase to three millions. In three
years time they will have attained
large size, and will then 60 through
shad nets like an arrow through the
air, and thus enable the other fish to
move at will up and down the stream.
Sturgeon were very plenty in the Hud-
son twenty years ago, selling for 90
cents to 81 each, while the present
price In the New York and Albany
markets is So, and the demand is now
greater than the supply. Shad are now
selling for one third the price that
they sold for before artificial propaga-
tion was introduced, and Mr.. Green
expects in three or four years hence
the price of sturgeon will be reduced
to similar ratio. The sturgeon Is
valuable as food fer the poor on ac-
count its cheapness, while the spawn
is used as ed0idre, an epicurean delicacy
large quantities ofwhich are annually ex-
ported to Europe.-Rochestsr ETpress.

lhe Strawberry Season ,
(Fron the N. Y. WarN.)

The strawberry season, which is now
at its height, opened this year four
days earlier than usual, on May 2S,
the first of June being the al
manac date. Theavcrage daily receipts
in this city at the present time arc Z,
900 crates, which at forty quarts each,
contain 260,000 quarts. Thus far the
best berries have come from Delaware,
where the crop Is very large and of
fine quality, common berries being in
many districts scarcely worth more
than the cost of picking. Delaware
berries, some of them, have brought as
much as so cents quart in this mar
kct this year. Tho average prices
among Wholesale dealers now are 12a
and ID cents, while retail prices vary
vary from 19 to 85 cents, Maryland
furnishes some berries to this market.
Charlestown, SC. has this year yield
of something like $50, 900 quarts In It's
suburbs, and expects to send twice
that quantity North next year. The
New Jersey berries have but just be.
gun to come In. They como from
Monmouth, Ocean, Rockland, Bergen
and Hudson counties, the three coun
ties last named producing tho finest
fruit. TheJersey fruit will be out oil
the market by about the LIST of July
to be succeeded by berries from Ulster
Grange, Dutchess and Columbia coun
ties. These later fruits are usually very
fine and command good prices. The
general crop this year Is better thar
the average both in yield and quality

L. There too Much Iron.

II is not only In the United States
that the iron industry is prostrate: The
London Times complaints that In Eng
land it is even in more deplorabls
The German papers tell US
that in Germany it is no better. In
France 1t, Is the same. What is the
matterf
People have not stopped using iron.
To be sure, we have stopped building
railroads at last, and in other countries
they have begun to stop also. There
is evidently an over production OF the
most useful and important OF metals.
Why is itg Is il not, partly, because
iron. so abundant, so easily and cheap
ly produced in so many different parts
Of the world, is not destroyed by its
first user A shirt or a pair OF trousers
is destroyed by the wcarer; an old hat
is flung away; food is consumed as We
correctly say. But in that sense iron
is not consumed. When rail is worn
down it is sent to the foundry and re-
melted, and its substance goes some
way toward the making OF new rail:
Old iron of all kinds has commercial
value, and is saved and sold, and used
over again, and often improved by the
first use. No farmer ever lets an old
horseshoe lie on the road. He picks it
up, and the blacksmith with little
labor makes new horseshoe OF H..
Who can tell at what stage. after how
many years of service in different ca
pacities, a piece Of iron finally dlsap-
pears and is actually consumcdf Per
haps those Pennsylvanians were wise
who some years ago bought up large
part of the very rich iron aud coal
lands of Alabama, and then concluded
to let them lie undeveloped until they
saw whether 1t would pay to set up
new furnaces and rolling mills.
Meantime 1t is pleasant to know that
we have actually begun to export iron
to Europe 10 1872 we exported /, ,447
tons of pig iron, and by 1874 the trade
had grown to 16,0S9 tons. We car
produce in some parts of the United
States iron of quality which Europe
does produce SO cheaply, and with thi
our iron masters ought to supply Eng
land and Continental Europe in con
stantly increasing quantities. Alabam,
furnaces now send iron to England
where it Is found valuable for the con
struction of cast car wheels. y

Cause and Effect.

A western paper hits the nail exactly
on the head, when it asks how we are to
account for the singular disappearance of
Arkansas, as disturbing element, from
our politics. For years that state was the
theatre OF tumult and uproar, of talsehood,
fraud, blood, and crime. Its society was
torn by discussions, its white and black
population arrayed against each other, its
high offices made the stakes of disgrace
full struggle, its high officers often agents
in shameless conspiracies and frauds, and
even its courts manufactures of partisan
decisions The state was disgrace to its
people and a disturber of the country
But within the last few weeks it has
grown quiet; its name is rarely men
toned; it is minding its own business
and leaving us to mind ours; no wran-
giles and contests are heard of within its
borders; the names of its factious chiefs
no longer salute our ears. In short, Ar
kansas is at peace. What is the explana-
ton OF this change?
The same, we imagine, accounts for the
subsistence of strife in Virginia, in North
Carolina, in Georgia. in Florida, in Tenn
essee, in Alabama and in Texas - the
downfall Of the local Republican party.
All these states were, in turn. scenes of
violence and disorder. while the carpet
baggers, welding the power of the nation
al government, held sway in them. All
of them have become tranquil since the
rout and flight of the carpet-bagger. Out
side government kept them in incessant
terment; free government gives them
peace and order. As long as the admin
istration attempted to control them, they
were refractory and uncomfortable the
moment they were left to their own peo-
pie they became quiet and loyal. Could
there be Il more striking proc of the be-
nightly of local government, or OF the evil
| of federal interference?
| The case Of Arkansas shows the Kcpub-
lican party in its true character as a nat
ural disturber of the peace. Its rule IN
every Southern state has been marked by
hostile arrangements, prescription and
strife; its overthrow has Teen followed,
almost Invariably, by reunion and repose
Even the labored patchngs and splicings
that are being made in Louisiana are
nothing more than miserable effort to re-
pair the disorder of Republican rule, and
annul the effects of federal interference
The true remedy for the Louisiana evil is
| that which cured the evils OF Arkansas
leaving the people to themselves. But
the personal policy of the president was
| involved, and it would not dc to give Lou
isiana peace at the cost Of a rebuke to the
president and his attorney general; hence
the importation of a cumbrous machinery
from abroad to do OF attempt what the
simple policy of let alone would have
peacefully and effectively done two years
ago.

A Spelling Match.

On Friday evening u spelling match
took place at Bucksport, between . class
of Seminary students and an equal num-
Der from among the people Of the town
Rev. VIM. Forsyth presided Rev. \. L..
Skinner otficiated as spelling master Rev
George Forsyth and Rev. W. IL. PiIlsbury
acted as referees. The strife of words
lasted two hours. The first to miss re-
ceived 4 copy of Mother Goose's Melodies
When the students were all spelled down,
there were eight Of the citizens class left
standing. TO Mrs Zenas Homer was pre-
scented the first prize, q copy of Worces-
ters Unabridged Dictionary. To Mrs.
Mary Wardwell was presented the second
prize, a copy Of Longfellow's poems 1t
was very pleasant affair The amount
realized, S3l, was given to aid in detray-
ing the expenses of the coming Seminary
exhibition.
