ONE CLEAN OF LIGHT.

In the midst of the dangers which
threaten and the calamitics which sur
round our people there is one CLEAN OF
light throug Oh the clouds. The extraor-
dinarily long-continucd Indian summer
weather, whice we are now enjoying, is
Matching out the eggs Of the grasshop-
pers in great numbers. In Nininger
township, Dakota county. we hear OF a
farm where the ground in one spot was
observed, "a month or two ago. as full OF
small holes; and now we learn that that
spot is literally alive with young grass
hoppers. The last number OF the Hut
Crimson Enterprise says:
"Grasshopper eggs are Matching out
quite lively at present. 1t Indian sum
ner continues a few more weeks the
next grasshopper season may not be so
very serious, after all; for those young
ones who "git up and git" this tall, won't
do SO any more, at all. 2"
A special to the Pioneer-Press says:
ST. PETER, Nov. 1O.-''The grasshop>
per eggs are all Matching out in this Sec
ton. The ground is thick with them a
mile and half from this city"

grants were annually added to our popu-
fation, all of whom found abundant food
and work. If now, as the Gazette says.
thousands are out of employment,
nervous, discontinued and starving" We
must look for the cause in that which
arrested the expanding growth and
prosperity Of the country, and that was
the contraction OF the currency and the
attempt to force specie resumption with
out specie. The trouble with the coun-
try is not over-production but UNDER
consumption.
The Gazette meurnfully adds:
''And yet he (Donnelly) will talk for
two hours to palm off his sophisms,
which bear their fruit in his receiving
two hundred and ninety six votes in this
city for member OF congress last Tues
day. We are glad to know, however,
that elsewhere he has been rcbnked,
and that his power for mischief closes
with this campaign and his next winters
duties as the hard money senator from
Dakota county,"
Now why will the Gazette lie about y
little thing? Does not almost every man
in Dakota county know that when we
were running last year tor senator we
avowed the same financial doctrines on
the stump which we have advocated in
these columns, and that we were attack
ed by Seagrave Smith because Of those
very doctrines?

THE PERILOUS SITUATION.

At this writing it looks as if the United
States were on the eve of a greater ca
lamity than was even the rebellion. The
success OF two great parties. with all the
personal. financial and governmental
interests involved therein. together with
the ambitions and passions of vast multi
tudes of people, all are hanging upon
the result in one or two OF the Southern
States; States where fraud and violence
have been the rule aEd not the excep>
ton for years past; and where now. it is
to be feared, one or both parties will re-
sort to desperate measures to secure sue
cess.
We shudder at the contemplation of
the dark and awful future which lies be>
fore the nation ii some peaceful solution
OF this difficulty is nut soon found. The
rebellion was war OF sections: this
would be . universal war, : war OF citi-
zen against citizen. and Of nei9hbor
against neighbor. The republic could
scarcely survive the anarchy which would
follow. God defend us from such -
APPALLING calamity.
