Recent developments will make
the North more solid than evel
against the solid South. Not salts
fed with their census frauds, b,
which the Southern brigadiers hoped
to show equal gains in population
with the States Of the Northwest
and thereby increase their represen
tation in Congress, it has been dis
covered that the rebels leaders have
concocted a scheme, which will sue
coed if they get into power, to divide
Texas into five States. This woulc
give eight new Senators, and place
the North completely at the mere,
of the South. This is only one O.
many of the disasters which woult
befall the Nation if Hancock wa
elected, as he would be powerless t.
prevent his Southern masters ant
owners from carrying out their pur
poses, and Northern Democrat
would not have the courage to sa,
nay to any demand made by the mel
who select the candidate and dictat
the policy of their party, no matte
if they are just as ready to plo
against the Union as they were il
1861. But this scheme will not sue
coed, because the loyal North will
rally SO unitedly around CARTEL
and Arthur and elect them so tr
umphantly that Democrats and Den
ocratic voters will look with amaz,
ment at the result, and will try
discover, but in vain, in what NORTH
ern State people voted for Hancock
,Ehe division of Texas will have
be indefinitely postponed.

Sailing Wheat Land.

Glencoe Enterprise.
The Enterprise made mention, last
spring, of an experiment being made
by a. II. Reed, in sowing salt on a
portion of his wheat field adjoining
town. The field consists of sixty
acres, forty acres of it being old
land, having produced wheat for ten
years, and twenty acres of new land,
having been sown three years. One
barrel of salt was sown soon after
seeding on one and quarter acres
of the old land. The season being
so wet that it was thought the salt
had not the effect it would had it
been dry, and but little notice was
taken of it until the harvesters began
to work. All the men engaged in
cutting this wheat expressed such
decided convictions that the straw
was stouter and the heads better
filled where the salt was sown that
Mr.. Reed determined to carefully
test it. NJ. Morrison and G. Raiber
were detailed to measure an acre of
the ground that contained salt, and
the wheat that grew thereon was
loaded onto wagons and taken to the
threshing machine and threshed.
The yield was thirty-six bushels, ma
chine measure. 1t was Immediately
taken to A. H. Reed & Co.'s elcva-
tor, weighed and tested by A. S. No
bles, with the result of thirty-cight
bushels in weight, and testing fifty
nine pounds to the measured bushel.
The entire field of sixty acres aver
aged twenty-four bushels per acre,
and none of it, except where the salt
was sown, tested over fifty-seven and
one half pounds as it came from the
machine.

September Atlantic.
1t is to be regretted that the Dem
ocrats have not chosen, by their NOM
ination and platform, to identify
their canvass clearly with few
broad principles of legislation, ad-
ministration, or constitutional inter-
|pretation. A thorough discussion of
the fundamental ideas of our gov
eminent, 90 far as they concern the
powers of national and State author
ity, would have been exceedingly
valuable in its educational influence
upon large masses of voters who
have never been led to a serious con-
sidcration of the questions involved.
The traditions of the Democratic
party lead it to take the side of State
authority as against the federal
power; those of the Republican party
lead it to favor the extension and
Strengthening of the national author
|ity at the expense of the State gov
ernments. A contest on this ground
would have involved the revival of
the early discussions between the
federalists and the anti-federalists
and close study of the opinions of
the fathers of the republic, and
would have lifted the campaign to a
high ground Of craftsmanship. The
Democrats, it is true, would have
been somewhat at loss to reconcile
the theory Of their party with its
practice when in power. Jefferson,
the great advocate of the States
rights and loose-government theory,
made all exceedingly vigorous ad-
nlinistration when he got to be Pres
ident, and was as much disposed as
his federalist predecessors, Washing
ton and Adams, to make the most of
the powers given HIM by the consti-
tuition. Jackson, when he wanted to
destroy the United States Bank, and
when he threatened to hang the
South Carolina nullifers, was as stall
wart "strong government" man as
was Grant in later years. Pierce
and Buchanan, in their efforts to
fasten slavery upon Kansas against
the will of her people, stretched to
the utmost all former broad interpre-
tations of the constitution. As a
rule, the party in power takes liberal
views of the extent of federal au-
thority, and the party out of power
makes use of the rights Of the States
to combat its successful rival. New
ertheless, so far as professed princi-
pies are concerned, the Democrats
can claim to be the party of the
States, and the Republicans can
claim to be that of the Nation.

A few extracts from the recent
speeches of Southern Democrats, and
from various journals of the South
would give variety to the Hancock
banners in Connecticut, and would
certainly prove attractive if arranged
in notices around the hall of the
State convention next week. We
suggest the following:
Put on your red shirts and let the
ride begin!
Consider what Lee and Jackson
would do if they were alive!
We must have but one party, anG
that is the Democratic party!
The negro will be a slave again o.

Remember the men who poured
fourth their life-blood on VirSini:

Let the "Mississippi plan" be re

flOneer fFesS.
There can be no question now but
that the wheat crop of this year is
the largest ever grown in the State.
The threshing machines have told a
better story even than was expected,
and while an occasional field only
turns out 10 bushels to the acre, the
larger part are yielding from Is to
20. Many are going rs, and we hear
of some yields Of 80. What is better
still, the bulk of the crop is No. l,
and of bright, healthy color, for no
rain has fallen for several weeks past
to injure it. In the central and
southern portions it is mostly in the
stack and secure from harm. There
are over 5O,OOO,OOO bushels of this
grain in the State this year, if the
estimates of acres in crop are cor
rect; and we think it safe to assume
that the average will be Is bushels
to the acre at least. Great prepare
tons for moving it are being made
by transportation companies, while
the millers of Minneapolis, who will
grind nearly third Of the crop, are
casting about on every side for means
to store all they can. The great
wheat crop of 1880 is god-send to
Minnesota. 1t will quicken every
enterprise now on foot in the State,
and bring happiness and comfort to
tens of thousands of homes where a
struggle has been going on these
years, owing to one misfortune and
another, to keep the wolf from the
door. And now what a chance there
is for each to take a portion of his
wealth and purchase few sheep or
a blooded calf, or an improved hog,
wherewith to lay the foundation for
future stock raising. Wheat grow
ing is one of the most luckless kinds
of farming in existence. There are
three failures to one success. Stock
raising and wool growing are as sure
as anything can be, and once started
are q permanent source of income.
They involve less hard work than
any other branch of farming, and
yield a bigger per cent. for the in
vestment.
