is an extract:
Tothe summary ofdoctrine enunciated
by the conventions, I give my cordial
assent. The Republican party has en-
trenched in the organic law of our land
the doctrine that liberty is the supreme,
Interchangeable law for every foot of
American soil. It is the mission OF
that party to give full effect to this
principle by securing to every American
citizen complete liberty and equality in
the exercise of all civil, political and
public rights. This will be accom-
plished only when citizens, without re-
gard to color, shall wear This panoply
of citizenship as fully and as securely
i'll the canebrakos Of Louisiana as on
the banks OF the st. Lawrence. Upon
the question of our Southern relations,
my views were recently expressed as a
member of the committee of the U. S.
House of Representatives. Those views
remain unchanged, and were thus ex-
pressed aWe Of the North delude

The Walla Walla Union, of last Sat
urday, says: "Mapy of the farmers To-
Gated along the foothills have COM
meEced harvesting their grain. The
proprietors of headers AID threslers
have been busy for some time making
contracts to head and tlresh, ard the
farmers wives are busy preparing,,for the
great event OF the year, the coming of
the harvest hands. Every man who
comes to town aud expresses cesire to
work, obtains situation at once at
good wages. There is lively demand
for harvest hands now, and the supply
is not equal to the requirements of our
agriculturists. Good judges place the
surplus crop of the valley at 90 900 tors,
or 600, 900 bushels of grain, while some
are quite certain that the surplus will
equal 10000 tons. The first estimate
is not far wrong, in our opinion. The
indications all point towards very low
price for wheat this fall-the figures 80
Co 35 cents per bushel, representing the
present impressions of buyers"

In our report of the visit of Dom

Point, we noted the fact that the En-
press and her lady friend, Doua Josefna

the river at Garrison's to inspect the
United States military post, pleading
fatigue and desiring needed rest from
long jonrneyings. Hardly had his Ma

and Dona Josefina with their male
friends alighted from the Wagner draw

American grocery, but when her Majes-

upon the steps ofthe aforesaid grocery,

Such a relation of d Ei0Hltsaineer
people to the government within
whose territory they lie has never
been unusual in the East. 1t has
been the position of the Kurds
(the Kardouchians of Xenophon)
from the first; even when they lay
at the very gates of the sovereigns
of Nineveh they still preserved
virtual independence; and as their
country did not present sufficient
inducements to balance the hard
fighting needed for its conquest,
they were quietly left alone. So
Persia had treated the people Of
Lesghistan and Daghestan, whom
she now transferred to Russia; but
Russia followed different maxims,
and would tolerate no independence
within the boundaries of the En-
pire. The Tarikat and Shariat, or
moral and judicial law of Islam,
must give way to the imperial law.
