1T may serve to Tighten the gloom
of hard times to state that the harvest
prospect is very Aattering in this coun.
try, while in France and England
the short crops indicate a much i'm
proved general market. Even in Cam
ada, the crop reports are excellent,
showing that this is favored conti-
nent this year. The Toronto Globe
publishes general report from all
parts of the Dominion, from which we
gather that the harvest has been un-
precedentedly large, that oats will fur
nish good crop, that barley will be
average, that flax is abundant, that
potatoes and other vegetables promise
we'll, and that altogether the prospect
is cheering The wheat harvest is ex-
pected to be poor, but even this may
prove better than now anticipated.
With US the reports are even more en-
cOuraging. The crops of wheat in
Kansas and California have been al.
ready gathered, and are very large.
From all parts of the Union good re-
ports are made of wheat, barley, oats,
corn, potatoes, and other essentials.
The cotton crop also promises well.
Hard times are bad, but famine is
worse. So long as food is plentiful
and cheap we have little to fear from
want. -eH
AS an illustration of the earnest
ness and confidence with which the
work of reform will be likely to be
prosecuted by the Democratic party,
we may remind our readers that
through the recent session of Congress
most earnest effort was made to re-
peal the laws for the prevention OF
election frauds. This seemed to call
for their most earnest efforts. 1t is
impossible to imagine that all thi:
had any other object than the opening
of the door for the commission Of
frauds.
Sympathy is that quality Of the
human heart that gives kindly bias
to mems actions. Without it this
world would be poor indeed, and hu,
man nature would be destitute of one
Of its most beautiful attributes. Re
move sympathy from the human
breast, and there is a vacuum created
only to be exceeded in size by that
produced by the removal Of "Light-
Running Domestic" from the midst OF
a family where it has been for years

economy, 1t has been repeatedly shown
that their highest figures now claimed,
about $3S, 100000, does not absolutely
reach S10,000,000. To make out
theie apparent reductions the most de-
cep.ive and dishonest expedients have
been resortod to. For instance the
appropriation for the Centennial last
session was included in the whole
amount of appropriations made, while
that for the present year was purposely
left out, thus making the apparent to-
tai less than it really is by just the
amount of that appropriation. An.
award of the Court of Claims of about
two millions was left unprovided for,
thus transferring the payment of q
Government obligation, due his year,
to future time, making the apparent
total less than 1t honestly is, by Just
the sum Of that award. The examina-
ton OF rebel war claims in connection
with the rebel archives in possession of
the War Department, has saved mill
ions to the Government because those
official records of rebel Government
often furnished ample evidence. of the
claimants disloyalty, hence his or her
claims was fraudulent and rejected.
$4,000 for this purpose was asked for
by the Government, and refused.
Thus placing the House in the atti-
tude of negatively facilitating the
collection of bogus claims. The fast
mails have been sacrificed and the
efficiency Of the Signal Office crippled
to contribute to the needs of the rebel
copperhead party, and many instances
having a similar significance might be
cited in relation with the enormous
reductions" effected. The country is
relieved by the adjournment of a
House which has rejected every oppor-
tunity to relieve the universal prostra-
tion and distress ehecting every prom
inent business interest, by appropriate
legislation, and devoted eight months
to an unsuccessful hunt for Republic
an criminals at an expenditure of
more than a million dollars. They
have succeeded in convieting (moral-
ly) one Democrat, who stole into Office
on false pretences, and have been obli-
ged in the meantime to dismiss several
of their reform appointes, for cause,
They set out "to catch Grant" and
suffered several humiliating defeats
in their efforts, and finally they have
earned the title of the most incompe-
tent House ever assembled in Wash.

He is exceeding anxious to have a
