The yield was at the rate Of 200 bushels of
ear corn per acre. while the fodder crop"
was immense and Of fine quality.
We could have sold the entire crop, for
large price, to New York Scotsman, but
declined to do so, preferring to keep the
crop for the accommodation of our nume-
rous country patrons. who will find it large
ly to to their interests to secure at least
small selection of this rare variety for the

long standing creates many bitter foes
and attracts few supporters and
lucky will it be for him if in the end
the rogues whom he has brought to
grief do not con,rive to make out his
character blacker than their own.
That was very wise warning of Col.
eridge, "Tru,h is good dog ; but be-
ware of barking too close to the heels
of an error, lest you get your b'ains
kicked out. "Mr. Tilden is barking
close at the heels of . great fraud, and
he will get much encouragement just
now plenty Of people will spur him
on but when we are told that he
looks for public gratitude after his
work is done, we must dismiss it as an
idle tale, for Mr.. Tilden is a shrewd
man, and knows perfectly well what
sort Of a world we are living in.

Tilden's War Record.

Abram s Hewitt, whose tamodS
speech on the night Of the adjourn
ment of the last Congress will long
be remembered for It's eloquence and
truth, addressed the Young Mems
Club in New York City an evening or
two ago, and read the following letter
from Judge J ID Cation, a personal
and intimate friend of Abraham Lin
coin, aud Chief Justice OF Illinois dur
ing 'he war:
SLIM. 4. s. He'oin.
DEAR SIR: was much interest
ed in reading your speech in reply to
Mr. Kasson. in yindicating the truth
Of history, and | wish to add my testi-
mony by saying that during the war
of the rebellion | had several inter
views with Governof TIlden on the
Subiec, Of the prospects Of the war,
and ever found him ardent and earnest
in its support. Thus knowing his
sentiments, on one occasion | called
upon him at his residence in Gramer
cy square, and submitted to him the
manuscript Of a paper which | had
written, the object of which was to
induce every citizen and especially
every Democrat to support the war
with heart and soul. The paper met
with his cordial approval, and in the
course of the interview he showed, in
that clear and earnest way peculiar 10
himself, that it was the paramount
duty to every one, whether Democrat
or Republican, to stand by his country
and the Union. While the fire was
raging it was no time to stop and dis
pute as to who kindled it. fl have
not known Mr. Tilden as long and as
intimately as l did Mr. Lincoln ! think
] certainly know his sentiments on the
subject of the late war; ana there
would be as much propriety in saying
that Mr. Lincoln was an anti-War Re-
publican as that Samuel j Tilden was
an anti War Democrat. Your truly,
~. d. CATION.
"Ouawa, ILL.,, August lS, 1876.
The reading ofthe letter called forth
great applause, and Mr. Hewitt said in
conclusion that the salvation of the
country depended upon a change of
Administration, and that long contin-
ued power would corrupt any party.

An Appeal to the Freemen oil the
state.

Freemen of Vermont We would
speak few words to you. The time is
rapidly approaching-is in fact already
near at hand when you are to have the
privilege of acting in your own behalf,-
when you are to render your verdict upon
those acts which have gone into the pollti-
cal record Of your country. You are to
decide those great questions which are
at this moment--of far greater interest
of far more vital import, than any ques-
tion ever submitted to your Judgment
You are to say, through the ballot-box,
whether you are to preserve or throw
away your constitutional liberties wheth-
eryou are in fact to enjoy longer your
rights and privileges as freemcn' to en-
iov the great legacy transmitted to you
from your fathers, or whether you are to
snanr Yourselves to be robbed Of your
rights as citizens and as men, and to be
bound down in serfdom for all time with
chains of relentless despotiSm which
aspiring tyrants have for years been fors-
ing for you. 1t remains for you to de-
terminc whether this Government. snail
longer be-as your fathers intended II
should be-a Government Of the people
by the people, for the people" or whether
it Shall become IL corrupt, Centralized
moneyed Aristocracy-the rapid tendency
toward which you have already noted IN
the daily increasing armies respectively
of tramps and millionaires; in the op'
preston of the laboring class; in the
lordly, arrogant, dictatoral air and de-
meanor of little lords whose chief or onl!
claim to distinction is money.
You have seen the privileged few un
tremendously fost themselves into th(
various positions of responsibility ant
power, and assume to dictate to tn
masses. You have seen them form them
selves into extended rings; you have see
them legislate measures and enact law
for their own special advancement ant
the oppression Of the misses; you hav
seen whole legislative bodies bought ant
sold at their bidding; you have witnesses
jobbery, corruption, venality and inflm.
stalking unblusbingly forth into the hall
of Congress, and have seen the people
money poured out with lavish hand
the bidding of interested rings an
wealthy corporations. You have see
officials of most eminent virtues, OF higf
est qualifications fitness for their posts
displaced, and notorious blockhead'
knaves and scoundrels elevated 10 place
OF highesG responsibility. You have see
the Chief Magistrate of the nation repea
edly resorting to extreme and arbitrar
measures for the use Of what he had nc
the shadow ofa right in the Constitution

Death or. Peace and War:
A CONTRAST.
BY NORMAN TAYLOR

She breathed her last SO peacefully,
She made no moan Of pain,
We knew not when the tide Of life,
Ceased flowing through each vein.
She passed away 30 peacefully,
we thought her sleeping there;
we knew not when her spirits wings,
Far upward cleft the air.
We laid her in the quiet grave.
one calm, fair, summer day,
When the bright sunlight on the EARTH
In golden beauty lay.
He died amid the whirlwind rush.
Of horsemen, line on line,
Their steel blades flashing in the air,
Like diamond. from the mine.
He fell amid the charging host,
His couch the crimson ground,
He fell, the life-blood oozing fast,
From many CHASTITY wound
Tho roar of a thousand cannon.
That wint'ry morning drear.
Cries. shrieks and groans, and clang OF stee
Smote on his dying ear.
O lovely peace cruel war
How different are ye
Sweet flowers deck her quiet grave,
No burial had he.
