A Democrat Seeking Sight.
M AY Is, 1877.

A correspondent of the Demo rat
last week addressed himself to the
Union League and propouuded to the
managers of That organization conun-
drum which we apprehend will not be
readily answered. The writer is dying
to know what the intentions of the
League are as to their political move
ments in the future. He refers to the
fact that the League, which is almost
solidly Democratic, uniformly supports
Democratic candidates when they are
members of the League, and now the
question is whether they propose to
hereafter vote for Democratic nominees
who do not belong to that order. The
nomination of Mr.. Finn last fall for
the Assembly is cited as case in point
when the League manipulated the Dem
ocratic caucuses in his behalf and pro.
cured his nomination. Democrats who
are not in sympathy with the League
are solicitous as to what that organi-
zation will do in case some other than
a League man is nominated for the
Assembly next fall, and an authorized,
uuequivocal answer is called for. But
we very much doubt any being given.
Should one be vouchsafed, however,
there is little question as to what it
will be. The past furnishes all the
enlightenment that may be required
upon that subject, and it is safe to say
that in the future the League will, as
formerly, support only such candidates
as are in sympathy with it. Anti
League Democrats will find that the
tail cannot wag the dog, and that they
may safely make up their minds to
this effect. They will first encounter
the League managers in caucus, and
undoubtedly be taken captive as they
were last fall; but the League failing
of success in the primaries will then
''bolt." as usual, and bring out a can
didate of their own. And the question
for Anti-League Democrats to consider
Is, "what are they going to do about
ie?"

Terrible Battle. f.

LONDON, May IA The Tezegraph's
special from Batoum, Friday night says;
"About five o'clock this morning the
Russians, largely augmented, advanced
with field artillery, and made furious
attack upon the heights defending Ba-
toum on the land side, occupied by
Bashi-Bazouks. The Ottoman troobs
were eDtrenehed, and opened a terrible
and we'll sustained fire of cannon and
musketry, which literally moved the
Russians down in swarthes. They fell
by scores and hundreds on the plain
below the Turkish positions. During
their attempts to make way against
this fire, a body Of Turkish horse and
foot, taking advantage of a thick forest,
broke forth upon the flank of the Rus
sian column, and effected great sIausht-
er, the Muscovites being upon ground
perfectly open, and having no choice
but to fight or fly. In a short time
the spot which was the scene of this
flank movement became covered with
dead and dying Russians, but the enc.
my quickly brought up re-enforcements,
and the battle was renewed with much
determination. For many hours the
efforts OF the assailants were desperately
maintained, but towards midday their
artillery fire gradually slackened, and
they at length withdrew, after suffer
Ing considerable losses.
An eye witness to this important
engagement, testifes that the Ottoman
soldiers behaved admirably. They had
however, during great part of the
action the advantage of entrenchment is
on high ground, and it is due to this
fact, no doubt, that their losses, COM
pared to the Russians, were insignif

patch, dated Saturday, says the victory
was won by the extraordinary courage
of the Bashi Bazouks. The dead ano
wounded Russians exceed 1000. The
engagement lasted over eight hours
actual fighting. The last of the Rus
slams did not withdraw until near mid.
night. The Russians lost many guns

The rumored formation of flibus
tering expeditions to invade Northern
Mexico from this side of the Rio
Grande is considered of less Importance
by the Washington authorities, than it
is among newsmongers. Under ordi-
nary circumstances, it is stated, this
Government will enforce the neutrality
laws as to the movements of any other
country with which We are at peace
for the invasion Of Mexico. As to the
raids of Mexican cattle-thieves into
Texas. the Administration is undecided
as to the extent of its power to chase
the marauders into Mexico and cap.
ture them, but it seems to be the only
means of capturing and despoiling them.

A TYPE foundry in St. Paul has late
ly furnished the types for the Franz
vava, an Icelandic newspaper to be
published in the Iceland colony at
Keewatin, on the Red river, 10 British
territory, about sixty miles from Fort
Garry. This will be the first newspa.
per published on the American CONT
nent in the Icelandic language. The
preparation of the types required the
greatest care. They are in the Ro.
man alphabet, but with great many
peculiarities in regard to accentua ton,
and are of very Anticipated form.
The lcelandic language is something
like the Norwegian language, as it was
spoken about thousand years ago.

The largest pine tree in Northern
Wisconsin is in Wood county, near the
Wisconsin Central Railroad. Three
feet from the ground the tree measures
twenty feet and SIX inches in circumfer-

ground to the first branches, and over
looks the entire surrounding forest.

The Democrat does not like "the
continual harping of the REPUBLICAN,
about the close connection existing
between the Democratic party and an
organization known as the Union
League" We are really sorry for our
neighbor, but do not see how we can
help him out of his dilemma, unless he
changes the existing facts. If he will
see to it that "the close connection" is
broken, we will cease to talk about it.
But SO long as "the close connection"
continues to exist, and the two organ
izations act in concert, hunting in cou-
Piles, SO to speak, and having only one
object in view, to- wit, the hitting of a
Republican head whenever one comes in
reach, We shall not fail to "keep it be-
to.e the people" that the Democratic
Union League party is the correct
name of the anti.Republican political
organization in this city.

IHE peanut Is native of South
America. 1t was taken from thence to
South Africa, and then brought from
that country here. Wilmington, N.
c., once had the best reputation for
its quality, but since the war the pea
nut is largely included as field crop
in Virginia, and lots from that State
bring the highest price 1t grows in
light. sandy, fairly fertile soil, with a
good clay sub-soil. When cultivated
as crop, it is sown in the pod, but
for small or experimental purposes, the
husks should be removed before plant
ing. Peanuts can be grown with as
little labor as is required for Indian
corn; an acre yields from twenty-five
to seventy and sometimes eighty bu-
shells. The growth is eccentric; after
the vine blossoms out, the flower seeks
and enters the ground, where the nut
is formed. The African product goes
largely to France, where immense
quantities are crushed in oil for the
adulteration and imitation of salad oil.
Marseilles is renowned for the number
of cargoes there handled. The Afri-
can variety is small in size, and seldom
used here others than when shelled for
confectioners' use. Some oil-crushing
is done in this country at the East and
South for table purposes. The re.
ceipts of peanuts at New York from
the Southern States for 1876 were
$1,000 bushels, and for 1875, $4,000
bushels.

Smoked Out.
We have at last succeeded in smol

We have at last succeeded in smok-
ing out the Democrat so that it has
taken firm and mani y stand with ref.
erence to the Union League. If our
neighbor, now that he has nailed his
colors to the mast, will stand nobly by
and defend them, a more honorable
and consistent course of action will
probably be pursued hereafter by the
Democratic party. 1t has been too
much the policy of that party to sue
cumb to the dictation of the League,
and for the sake of spoils belittle itself
in the public estimation by eating dirt
and acting the part of craven and
coward. Referring to the past course
of the league the Democrat says:
1t is not right, in fact it is a vicious, in
sidious proceeding for the League to lay
down plan of operation, and virtually
make tie nominations in its dark lantern
abode, and then rush into Democratic eau
cuses and conventions and simply confirm
what has been previously arranged.
We suggest to the Democrat that
all this virtuous indignation will pass
for naught unless it is followed up by
deeds fully in keeping with it. Bye
and bye, when in sits dark-lantern
abode" the League shall designate
whom it wants this fall as its repre-.
sentative in the Legislature, and issues
its edict accordingly, the Democrat
will have duty to perform which it
failed most signally to- do last year.
IF the Democrat shall faithfully OBJ
serve its obligation in this respect and
oppose the schemes of the plotters
whom it now SO severely condemns, it
will greatly disappoint us.

CHEF JUSTICE WAITE is holding
court at Charleston. S. G. He finds
upon the docket 1900 indictments
against persons con cerned in the Eller-
ton riots in that state. 1t is thought
that the trials of the Hamburg rioters
will not be reached at the present term
Of the court. Considerable anxiety
is felt as to what disposition will finally
be made of these cases. 1t is to be
hoped that full and fair investigations
will be had, and that the guilty parties
will be convicted and punished accord
ing to their deserts. 1t will be re-
freshing and novel to find that the
"bulldozers" are destined to stretch
Kemp for their horrible outrages upon
the negroes who were the victims OF
their hate and oppression, and suffered
death at their hands without cause.

MINNESOTA is going to hold spe-
cial election on the 18th of June.
The question is as to whether the state
shall devote the 100000 acres of in
ternal improved lands and the proceeds
thereof to the adjustment of the state
railroad bonds, in accordance with an
act of the last legislature to provide
for the payment of bonds known as the
Minnesota state railroad bonds. The
bonds have been practically repudiated
for twenty years, and the chances are
that the people will refuse to settle
them now. The excitement is already
intense, and charges of fraud and brib-
cry are free as water in that state.
