DECENT POLITICAL EVENTS
Ii indicate a speedy return of the
Democratic party to supreme power in
the nation. The House of Representa-
tives is now Democratic by large
majority; the government of more than
one halt of the States is administered
by Democrats; the party enters upon
the Presidential contest with the
brightest hopes, and under the most
substantial encouragement.
The wonderful revelations of rascal
ity and corruption on the part of Re-
publican leaders, which have burdened
the press and Mortified the people dur
ing the past three years, make it clear
ly the duty of every man to take an
active part in the great contest of the
present year. More than at any pre-
vious time in the history of the coun-
try, trustworthy daily newspaper is
now necessary to every citizen, in Or
der that he may intelligently discharge
his political duties. The CHICAGO
MORNING COURIER is a consistent
Democratic newspaper. 1t will be de-
voted to the work of aiding in rescuing
the nation from the party that has de-
bauchcd its service, squapdered its
treasure and enslavcd its liberties. 1t
will advocate speedy return to specie
payments, but believes that this result
should be brought about by economical
management of the Government, and
not by arbitrary enactment. 1t be-
lieves in greenbacks at par, and the
same currency for the rich and the
poor. 1t will advocate Home Rule,
Free Trade and public economy, the
old cardinal principles of the Demo-
cratic party.
The Courier has established wide
spread reputation as first class news
paper The aim of its management is
to make it all that the public in these
hurrying days can desire, namely
complete newspaper. Every facility
known to modern journalism will be
utilized to insure the prompt presenta-
ton of all important intelligence from
all parts of the world, while the utmost
care will be excised to CLEAN only such
as is worth printing. In short, the
Courier will give all the news as
promptly as any other paper, and con-
densed into more attractive and read
able form than the blanket sheets.
Terms-Mail subscriptions, postage
free, six dollars per annum, or fifty
cents per month, in advance.

The New Orleans Democrat has
suspended. We don't want any bet
ter evidence of the great indifference
of most of the people Of New Orleans
to their real and true rights, than the
fact that this able and most excel
lently conducted paper has been SC
shamefully neglected as to force its
suspension. We feel panied and
shamed to be forced to record such
an event. When such q Journal dies

bad omen and speaks badly for the

The Democrats of Ohio have good cause to
entertain kind feelings for Mr.. Hendricks.
While Tilden & Co. were laboring to defeat
Governor Allen and the Ohio Democracy,
Governor Hendricks came into our State and
took part in the canvass, making speeches
for US. Aside from this, there is a common
sympathy between the two states that draws
them into close alliance, instead of making
them mutual enemies. If the Ohio Democ-
racy cannot, secure the nomination of Mr..
Allen, there is no reason in the world why
they should no. go to Governor Hendrick.

Good Words.

The following extracts are from Republican
papers which have opposed Mr.. BIaine's nomi-
nation for the Presidency:
Mr.. Blaine, in the sudden and alarming III
ness that has come upon him at the very crisis
OF bis political fortunes, has the sympathy and
good wishes OF all his countrymen, with insig-
nifcant exceptions. Political opposition or
doubts as to his fitness as q candidate for the
Presidency do not imply personal hostility nor
diminish the respect Universally felt for his
great talents, and admiration for his splendid
qualities as parliamentary leader. No man
has made so conspicuous figure in our recent
politics, and there are probably very few who
after career so long and active, would have
borne with less discredit the fierce and search
ing light which is turned upon candidate for
the Presidency Worcester Spy.
For the last few weeks Mr.. Blaine's nervous
system has been subjected to q fearful! strain.
His terrible tussle with the Confederate House
would have entirely exhausted the physical and
mental energy of most men long before this.
He has been the target of the envsnomed ar
rows OF slander for months One grain of truth
in the accusations against him has been used
to scent whole cart loads of mud. Ever since
he showed up the ex-rebels by his noble and
courageous speech early in the session, the
whole pack of Confederate hounds has been let
loose upon him. He has met the attacks,
hurled back the accusations, exposed the con-
spiracy and dragged Mr.. Knott into the light of
day for suppressing evidence in manner that
has lost the ex-Speaker no friends.-Albany

THE first estimates of Southern crops for
the current season are now being reported,
and they indicate, on the whole, that more
than average return of the great staple of the
South may be expected. Of 155 reports from
various sections of West Tennessee, North
Mississippi, Arkansas, etc., forty-nine say
that the cotton stands were never better,
eighty-six call them good, and twenty give
less encouraging statements than last year.
The month of April was not so favorable for
cotton as last year, but the month of May
was more favorable. The morale of labor
has undergone an improvement which prom
ises well for the future. Ia Alabama the cot
ton crop is considerably above the average up
to date. Thirty-eight counties report an ay-
erage increase of s 1-2 per cent. in the acre.
age, while seven show decrease. There has
been as yet no material damage by overflow,
and the stand is universally good In Missis-
sippi the condition of the crop is hopeful.
There are so many influences warning against
the prosperity of the cotton planters that any
predictions made now would quite likely be
disproved at picking time; but thus far there
is good reason to hope for the best crop Of
several seasons.
