Elizur Wright Abandons the Republi-
can Party

can Party.
EllzuraW right, an original Aboli;ionist,
for years secretary of the American Anti
Slavery society, and one of the founders
OF the Republican party in Massachusetts,
has abandoned that party, and tells the
reasons why. in letter to the Springfield,
Mass. Republican, which concludes as
follows:
AS one that worked some, long ago,
that the Republican party might have a
being, though since but an iafnitesimal
molecule of it, | improve the right TO
say that it lost my vote by two things:
First, it allowed the Freedman's bank to
be robbed of million and half of dollars
chiefly ty leading Republicans, and never
said word about restoring the money.
Second. it did not rebuke the Anderson
vile speech of Blaine's, the wickedest and
most mischievous, under the circum-
stances, that was ever uttered on the floor
Of congress.
Every intelligent colored man at the
south knows how the bank was robbed.
And every one of them in the Democratic
states knows that he has been, though not
any too well, yet as we'll protected by his
state as his colored brother has been under
the egis OF Stearns, Chamberlain or Kel-
logg. Yet Blaine has raised such storm
at the north, that it is difficult to fnd
Republican, unless he has travelled in the
south himself, who can believe that any
ex-slave can have voted the Democratic
ticket without deadly intimidation ! Was
there ever people so afflicted with false
hood, since the world was made?

Tue FOREST WASTE.

Mr. j. Little. of Montreal, has writ
ten TO the Journal OF Commerce OF that
city letter which contains some sug.
gestive facts conc erning the timber
supply Of Canada and the United
States. 1t appears that the product Of
the Northwest for oAe year is z, 200,-
100000 feet. quantity Of shingles
equal TO $50, 600, 900 feet of lumber and
If we add the pine timber used in home
consumption and exported the whole
product will amount to some 2, 800 ,000-
900 Of feet, enough TO girdls the globe
twenty times over with boards foot
wide, ell drawn annually from the low.
er peninsula, the section OF the timber
supply Of the northwest with which
our lumbermen have TO compete in the
eastern markets. The result OF this in
dustrious destruction is that mills are
dropping out here and there, that all
mills have reached the limits of pro.
duction, that in five years places which
are OF considerable value will have no
prstensious TO Importance as numbering
districts. and that 10 the last three
years more than one-fourh Of the esti.

Presently the question which far see
isg men are already considering will
force itself upon everybodies attention:
Where are supplies Of lumber TO be
found Twelve years ago it was as
serted IN report to the National Board
OF Trade convention, at Detroit, that
the Ottawa Valley could double its
product for two centuries but Mr.
Little says that the whole 0ttawa Val
ley could not to-day furnish as much
/ pine as would supply the present con
sumption OF sawed lumber ia the Unit
ed States for twelve months. Az fifty
per centuG less lumber IL cut now thar
was cut In 1865 IL the report was trust
worthy. the Ottawa Valley sopply
ought TO last four hundred years.
Mr.. Little saws that not one lumber
man 10 huadred will give any heed
to the warning which these facts anC
figures convey. Perhaps not but III,
warniog will make itself heard BY ant

ed against the reckless cutting dowr
OF trees but the commercial aspect o
the question Of forest waste is not the
least interesting one.

puAIR AGAIN REPRiEyEp.

Gov. Fairbanks, after taking great
pains TO find out the truth in regard to

deemed il Of sufficient importance to

This extent Of time is necessary from

Both Mr.. Park and General Schenck
have good reason to rejoice over the
result Of the protractod trial OF the IA.
nous Emma Mine case. The connec.
ton OF General Sehenck with the case
was an incidental connection, but in
consequences Of his prominent position
a. the Minister Of the United States in
London when the transactions occurred
out of which the case arose, he was
really made leading defendant in the
popular mind, and the verdict by which
Mr.. Park and Mr.. Baxter have been
triumphantly acquitted Of all charges
of fraud substantially aquits him also Of
every imputation put upon him in the
matter excepting that OF an error o.
judgment in accepting the directorshiF
Of speculative company while filing
responsible diplomatic post. II can
not be denied that the defendants went
into court burdened with the moral dis
advantage of hostile public opinion
on both sides OF the Atlantic. 1t il
amply fair and candid, therefore, te
admit that Mr.. Park and his associates
have reason TO complain that they
got something very like Jedburgh jus
tice from the public opinion both o
England aud Of America before they
were put upon their trial and to Say
that they are entitled now to suct
amends as can be made to them by I
frank ayowal of this fact. All Ameri
cans ought to be glad Of this, for thu
scandal of the Emma Mine has serious
