THE AMERICAN Communicative give
below specimen brick of the infamma-
tory appeals sent out by the National
Gleenback party, which contains the es-
sence of foolishness and villainy:
Young MEN OF THE WEST AND THE
SOUTH We can clean all of those eastern
pirates out of homes and the property they
have stolen. We can unite and whip them
/ TO reason and TO n comprehension of the
right. We can leave the country northeast
of the Allegheny mountains TO pay the
national debt. We can unite and make
the southwest the garden of the world
We can open the Mississippi river and float
our billions of produce down It's waters t.
market. We can send our surplus products
to foreign countries by the way of south.
ern cities. With the proceeds we can line
the west and south with new railroads
open new mines, and make the east II
bowling wilderness in which will roam
the ghosts of the witch burners and oil
those Puritans who made fortunes in sup.
plying the south with slaves stolen from
the coast of Africa. We can do all this
and you will take this for your repast in
the near future if you do not burn your i'll.

ganize greenback clubs.-with bayGuet;

In the organization of grecnback clubs
we counsel every able bodied member Of

If the dispatches from Berlin are trus'-
worthy, England is taking a very bold
front in regard to the reorganization Of
Asiatc Turkey. She seems to have gained
her main points about the disposition OF
the European ptrt of the sultan's domain
but these seem to have been the points o
Germany and Austria also. If she sue.

scheme Of government for the other hal

something to brag of.
1t is said that the secretary of war and

The crop reports from various parts o
the country confirm the early prospect th,l
the harvest this year will be enormous
large. In the northwest the increase 0
the grain yield will be from Is to 20 pc
cent over that Of last year. In a few
localit e. rust has come upon the grain
but too late to seriously affect the harvest
In Minnesota corn is backward on accoun
of cold and wet, AMI potatoes suffer slight
y from the Colorado bug. In Wisconsin
the acreage of grain is considerable NOR
Than that of last year. In Ohio til
acreage of wheat sown is about 80 pc
cent more than that of 1877, and the in
crease over any previous yield will be Il
least 25 per cent. The average whea
crop in thai state for the last IS years HI,
been 22,000,0O0 bushels This year 80
100000 bushels are expected. Similu

The Berlin congress has been in session
nearly three weeks and has worked long
enough so that the end is foreshadowed.
The Russian claims have been cut down
and instead of giving that country what
she earned by the war and was promised
by the treaty of San Stefano the congress
evidently intends TO make division OF
spoil. Turkey is to be as effectually
weakened as Russia would have her but
Austria is to share in the territory.
1t has been determined that the sultan
cannot govern Bosnia and Herzegovina
and So Austria is TO take them-her troops
being already preparing for occupancy.
Greece too stands good chance of being
taken care of and of having some add-
tions both to her safety and territory.
In fact England appears to have gone to
the conference for the purpose not Of
keeping to the old line of policy in regard
10 the sultan's realm, but with a spite
toward Russia. Beacon>feld does not
care what becomes of the Turkish Empire
but he is bound that Russia shall not occu-
py any considerable portion of it. To do
this it looks as though he had very quietly
traded with Austria and in consideration
of her support against Russian pretensonS
had consented that the Austrians should
take Il larger slice from the Ottoman EN-
pire than the congress saves from the Rus
sian grasp.
Meantime Russia cannot be prevented
from Il large accession to her Asiatic from
tier and all the country between the Bal
kans and the Danube will be taken from
Turkey, most of it to be set up into al
independent state under the name of Bull
garia. South of the Balkans there is tc
be province of Roumeia. subject indeed
to the sultan but not to be governed by
Turkish troops. The latter will however
have the right of passage to the line of the
Balkans which may be fortified by tn,
Turks. The famous quadrilateral j,
thus done away with as section of great
military interest, for the line of Turkisl
defence recedes south of it.
The Berlin congress is humbug AM
the English will find it out one of thes,
days. Russia is disappointed but it will
be only for few years. The power o
Turkey is broken cffectually by the divi,
ion of spols to be made at Berlin. The
friendship existing toward England on thu
part of the Turks receives another blow
from Beaconsfeld's extreme willingness tc
let nybody but Russia take share. Ii
short England's selfshness will in few
years have lost all it seeks to gain.
