The Work Progressing.

=e=Carl4 Sehafz made a speech at Column
bus on the 2lst ult. He was enthusias-
tically received, many Germans being on
hand to hear him. In opening his speech
the Secretary said: g In entering Ohio
had been surprised, and agreeably sur
prised. l found the smoke pouring from
the chimneys of the manufacturing es-
tablishments and mills. The hum and
din-of business activity was apparent on
all sides, while along the railroads he
met and passed heavy trains carving to
the Eastern markets the products of the
great West. Before leaving Washington
he had been informed by certain Ohio
politicians that the people were idle, the
mills closed and the occupation of the
people gone; but in this he was satisfied
that his information was not to be fully
relied on. Truly he had found some who
were depressed and wore sober faces, but
he believed that this was caused by the
| fear that their occupation would soon be
| destroyed by the returning prosperity -
In the course of his address the Secre-
| tary alluded to the speech of General
Ewing at Lancaster, in which he said it
was the duty of the government to issue
the currency, expand or contract as the
wants of the people required, and to raise
| or lower values. This Mr. Schurz char
acterized as the most disgraceful of any
legislation that had ever been advocated
and, after explaining the results of such
legislation, said no king, no despot that
ever ruled over slaves, was empowered
with more arbitrary power than General
Ewing advocated should be given to the
Government of the United States, to say
what you shall Pay for your goods OF
what you shall work for.
In closing, the Secretary referred tt
the subject of exciting the prejudice O
the poor against the rich, and said fol
such ADVICE, in free nation, like thu
other, where the labOring mechanic ant
his sons stand on an equal footing, was
crime. The humblest among ms know
not but that his son may occupy tn,
) highest Office in the gift of a free people
T Not long ago was buried an ex-Presiden
who was once poor tailor, and Vice
President who in boyhood days occupied
the cobbler's bench, and any man wht
J tried to prejudice the poor against tn
rich committed crime against his coun
try, and any person engaged in suel
work had reached the bottom of politica
: degradation.

put few questions to our farmers rela
tive to sowing wheat.
First. To get the best result, is it no
necessary to put the ground in the bes
possible order, and sow early?
Second. Is it not necessary, in order t
keep up the productiveness of the soil
and secure reasonable return with som
degree of certainty, to manure the LAM
more than has been the custom hithert
) among us?
Third. Is there any ground in Fayett
county where six or eight grains of whea
can attain to its best possible growth an
development on eight inches square, c
SO or 64 square inches of ground?
Fourth. With thorough drainage an
tillage, careful drilling and manuring,
there not a reasonable hope-nay, almoi
certainty (the elements being favorable
! that half a bushel of wheat sown
: the acre will produce better and heavie
crop than one bushel to the acre woul
under similar circumstances

The State of Georgia is threatened with
a grand colored exodus as soon as the
cotton picking season is over, and the dar-
kies get in funds sufficient to pay tor
transportation; and yet the GeorgianS
claim that colored men are well treated
and paid liberal wages, and ''ln some ooaI., 2,
ties they arc allowed to exercise their civil
and political rights" Quite likely; put
then the Georgia chain gang law, when
condemns eyerv laboring man to one
years penal servitude for breaking a
labor contract is terror to every eolored
man in the State, since they all know that
the statute authorizing the formation OF
the chain gangs was enacted TO keep
the nigger in his place. 20. .. Jo"Fa0t'

Antwerp from a church spnre.

After wandering through the cathedral
and its chapels we ascended the spire to
have view of the city. Five hundred
and fourteen stone steps lead to the top,
and the view repays the climbing. You
look down on the narrow winding streets
and the houses with their small courts.
The people look like children, the parks
and gardens stretch out as far as you can
see to the blue sea-like horizon of Flanders
and Holland. The Scheldt looks yellow
and silent, the vessels asleep on it's breast,
the spires of the churches rise up below
you, the old houses by the quay lean down
to the water and the guide shows the
house of Charles the Fifth, and old Span
ish houses and the tower near the water,
of the days of the Inquisition-and no one
knows how old it is-and the bells and
chimes are all ringing for the Fete Dieu,
and you go down to find the crowds in
| holiday, attire, pouring from house and
church. The houses are hung with gar
lands of paper roses and lighted candles
and images of the Madonna and saints.
| Old women with long cloaks and broad
| tapping lace caps count their beads aS
| they stand waiting with candles in theiI
/ hands, and through the streets where tho
procession passes they are sprinklins
| white sand, and over that daisies and
green leaves. The crowds line the mar
| row sidewalks, the police clear the streets
not morse OF wagon 10 De seen anu dhll'
the Ginning of thousand bells the pro
cession leaves the cathedral and come!
slowly down the streets. A band plays
solemn grand march, chorus of mall
voices follow, then comes the officials ant
dignitaries of the city in black suits, ,bare'
heads, white gloves and carrying hug
lighted candles; then the altar boys il
scarlet and white swinging incense,
,, procession of priests in full robes, bear
ing banners and cruCifiXes, and then
golden canopy upheld by four priests an
under it the archbishop carrying the hos
children dressed in white throw flower
before it and the people all kneel as

It is hinted that prominent Democratic
leaders are not giving General Ewing a
very enthusiastic support IN his canvass
reason that it is believed if he should be
successful he would Immediately set him
self to work to secure a Democratic PreSi-

an able but very ambitious man, and
success in Ohio would bring him promi-
nently to the front as PRESIDENTIAL can
