THE Daily Herald, devoted to the in

terests Of Geneva Lake, j. e. Heg, Ed
itor and Proprietor, Vol. 1. No. /. is
received.
The publisher announces, This paper
!. is issued strictly on account of the
meeting Of the Wisconsin State Teach
eEs Association, and after it's adjourn
ment, the Daily will softly close its
eyes and climb the golden stair.
| The Daily is ably ialling it's purpose
and is well worth it's priicc,e7-rth three cents

! The CROPS in Kenosha county, as
! far as we have been able to learn, are
believed to be doing we'll generally.
The heavy rains of two weeks ago
raised the rivers and oyerhoWed the
low grass lands doing serious damage
to grass and hay. And hay on the high
lands which was cut was considerably
damaged before it could be secured.
There has been some fear Of wheat
rusting or failing to fill in consequence
Of the excessively hot weather, but we
have heard nothing definite Of wheat
being injured by either. Chinch bugs
are reported to have appeared in some
places but probably too late to have
done much damage. The wheat har-
vest has commenced and will probably
be completed next week. Flax is about
ready to cut and it is said to be struck
with rust in places. We hear but lit
tie said Of oats & barley but understand
that there will be large yield. Corn is
growing rapidly and, unless there is a
very great change in the weather, will
come to maturity in August, and will
yield a very heavy crop. Altogether
the yield for the season will probably
be very heavy one. A greater aver
age Of land was put to seed than last
year and it is believed the yield will be
equally good and even better. 1t has
been a. common remark that crops have
never looked as we'll since 1860.

special says: 1t is conceded on all sides that
kearney contributed to Buffers defeat, and
he is i'll very bad odor at the Generals head
quarters d. S. Davitt, Buffers Ancient,
said to kearney last night 81 hope that
you are satisfied, now that you have done 80
much to defeat us" kearney, however, takes
a different view, and says that Butler owes
his defeat to the fact that he resorted to po-
litical wire pulling and trusted the manage
ment of the campaign to political bummers
kearney says he is prepared to organize the
different wards of the city in the interest of
the Workinsmen, and will nominate and elect
a son of toll as Mayor He says he recog-
nizes the mistake he has made in stopping to
any afilistion with old political parties, and
that by working independently of all, the
Norklngnlen are sure to win.

San Francisco, November 9.-Capt Hodg
man, of the ship Loretta Fish, has been ar
rested and held on s., 1000 bail to answer be-
fore the United States Grand Jury on charges
preferred by the crew. Two of the crew died
of scurvy, the flesh fairly rotting from their
bones. Three others, SO wasted by disease
as 70 be uneble to walk, have been taken to
the Marine Hospital Others were given
quarters in the Jail, pending the trial. The
crew state the provisions were not only of an
inferior quality, but misereably short as to
quantity, the men being subjected to the
pangs of hunger The ship was 100 days on
the passage from New York, and never put
in anywhere for supplies.

THE RESULT.

Grandy as the Republic plucked victory
from the nettle danger and launched again
the bark of Freedom on the ocean of time
and human affairs, despite the uprising of
rebellion and treason in 1861, the intelligent
reassertion of the victories of the sword by
the patriotic North at the polls has surpassed
in these latter days, in moral tone, that
magnificent epoch in our nations history. All
through the East we DISCERN that the rills of
liberty point their. united currents toward the
swelling food that carries human freedom and
emancipation to mankind. The courage of
opinion resists at the ballot box the treason
able issues that else would be settled only by
the arbitratment of civil war As a nation
We are learning more effectually than ever
before that the suffrages OF freemen must
and will forestall and silence the dark plots
Of the enemies of the Republic. Even in
the South are bubblins up here and there the
well-springs of irrepressible self assertion
that are to swell the tide and current of self
government Our deluded Southern breth-
rem have beheld the finger of monition, and
dom are about numbered Every where have
the people arizen to the ma jesty of the occa-
SION and by the unmistakeable significance of
their suffrage given staggering blow to
alsarchial tendencies The patience that can
unhllchingy endure defeat points with ex-
u.tant pride to national victory that is as
decisive III advance OF 1880 as it is obscure to
the vision of local rectifiers of public morals
The pointed retrieval of Nevada from
Democratic administration is one of the
g.OrIes OF the hour that can not be furnished
by stale charges that the people are corrupt
or that Republicanism is not intrinsic with
Us, or needs abnormal stimulants to success
fUi! activity. Grant for President in 1880
Is the synonym of party unity among Repub-
lcans throughout this nation and no cowarCilv
eXrediency will dictate the administration to
he nominated III that year. The divisions in
party cou els that took their origin at Cincn-
natl in 1876 are the shackles that Bepubli-
cans have broken il this year of grace 1873,
and the virility Of the unionists who saved the
Republic will manifest itself VIGOROUSLY in
1880 The servitude to which the grand old
party has been subjected for two years will
only magnify the splendor of its self emanci-
patton.

AHTHEACITE CoAL.-The Seattle (W. T.

coyery of anthracite coal i'll that Territory
There can no longer be any doubt of the
existence of anthracite coal southeast of
Nnunt Raner and within three miles of the
projected Cascade Mountain road of the
Northern Pacific. We have it on the au-
thority of two reliable witnesses, who have
seen it, that several veins of eight feet thick
ness and one of twenty three have been dis
covered. We have ourselves seen the coal
and experts in our presence have pronounced
1t genuine anthracite. We have heard it
stated that the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company will, at no distant day, have it
professionally examined.

A small, inotfensive-appearing one
armed man, with rather an intelligent
face, but poorly clad and with marks of
pain and suffering in his countenance,
walked slowly into the Central Police
station yesterday forenoon and, notion
ing Lieut. Morse, the officer in charge,
to one side, where he could not be over
heard by any one else in the room, whis.
pered in broken voice: 81 am sick
and without money or friends. I've
been to all the hospitals, and none Of
them will take me in. was at the In
firmary, but there it was the same, and
| am so feeble and sick that if | do not

"What do you think we can do for
you here if none of these places can
help youP" quietly inquired the Lieu
tenant.
81 have got pair of shoes here an
swered he in half-scared way, taking
from under his arm the articles careful
ly wrapped in newspaper, and hand
ing them to the officer,
"lf you want to dispose of these, and
have right to sell them (addiug this on
account of the suspicious looks of the
MANI, you can surely find better mar
ket than this.
The paper is mine, but the shoes are
not. stole them" This confession
in the same quiet way he had spoken
before
From where?" asked Morse, scarce
ly comprehendmg the man.
"The sign is George Angel, and the
store is on the street that leads to the
market. l hate to call it stealing |
ncNer stole any thing in my life before,
but took them, thinking that you would
arrest me and send me to some place
where l could be taken care of"
He almost broke down as he finished
this statement. With a feeling of pity
the officer took up his pen and turned
to his blotter. The mans name, Thom-
as johnson, was recorded upon its
pages with the charge OF petit larceny
against it. The turnkey showed him
into the prison and the iron doors closed
behind him. In the afternoon he ap-
peared before Judge Updegrotf and re.
| peated his statement. The Court found
him guilty, imposed q fine of S25, and
ordered him sent 10 the work-house tor
thirty days. ClepelaHd Lealer,
