THE YIELD OF WHEAT.

It Is now quite evident that the
Weld of wheat iu this country will ex-
ceed that Of 1879, when it is said 1t was
45O 900, 900 bushels. Now, it is calcu-
lated that the yield for 1880 win reach
4sO 900 900 bushels. This would leave
a surplus of near 200, 900, 900 bushels,
that might be skipped toEurope should
the demand reach such figure. The
latest indications are that there will be
a short crop in Great Britain and
France, and yet considerably larger
yield than last year. Hence it is too
early to judge whether the foreign de-
mand will be sufficient to afford mar
ket for the 81 sroposed minimum yield
this year in the United States. Out OF
a crop of 450, 900, 900 bushels we have
exported about $50, 900, 900, and if the
Weld should be reduced TO 42O, ,OOO, 600
this year, there would still be needed a
foreign market for about loo, ,OOO, 600
bushels. The largest quantity expor-
ted in any fiscal year prior % 1879 was
73,6s4, 821 bushels i'll 1873, besides A.
OOO, 600 barrels of fiour-the equivalent
of about %, $50, 900 bushels Of wheat
in all. If the foreign demand should
not be larger than it was in that J ear,
we should probably have left ON our
hands an unmarked able surplus OF over
go, 900, 600 bushels. But there is strong
reason to hope that the demand will be
]arger.

WILMINGToN's GRewTH.-Very few
towns In the Middle States equal the
growth of Wilmington during the
last decade. The increase in popula-
tion has been about 3S per cent,
making the population now nearly
$4,000. This is very rapid progress
considering that five yeals of the de-
cade were the dullest years the coun-
try has experienced since the war Of
1919. The next decade opens with
the most encouraging prospects.
Never in the history of Our beautiful
little city did her future appear more
bright. There are now contracted for
and in progress Of erection not less
than two hundred houses. During
the year it is calculated that not less
than four bundled and fifty houses
will be erected. This will be a good
offsend for the new decade we are just
entering, and we should not be sur
prised that in the next ten years the
growth of our city would be nearer
90 than Ss per cent.

From the Chicaso Times.
Gen. Garfield admits the receipt of
Sc, ZOO from De Golyer d Mcclellan,
tn. ough Dick Parsons, but he Indignant
ly denies that II was bIibe. Why was
he paid so much, for it was large fee TO
the b of lawyers for the hardest of
work? Chittenden was interested with
De Golyer Il Mcclellan In the paving
contract obtained for them by Garfield,
but was never able 10 make good that in
tere3t, because while admitting his SER
vice The finn formally pleaded that the
contract having been obtained by bribe
it was contrary to public morals. This
G iltenden avows that the amount was
paid not for the services of Lawyer Gar-
field, neither for those Of Congressman
Gal field, except in so far as he was
Chairman of the .CommiLleekon Appro-
priatioDs. Garfield says it was FOR down.
right hard work, he having examined
some forty different kinds OF pavement
and ade a written brief showirg the
value of the 'ironiziDg" process above
all others. The Nation, witho 1T seeing
The blief, thinks the work upol it worth
the fee. But where IS the briei? How
long was 1t? How lucid and convincing?
The document is not filed among the
records of the District of Columbia. 1t
does not seem TO be in existence. 1t was
never read 10 the Board of the District,
and never fled for reading.
Unless there was some labor upon
this brief the fee was obviously for the
purchase of the Congressman flu
ence, for a mere statement to Shep-
herd was not a professional service
worth so, 900. Garfield claimed that
be wrote The brief. But what became
of it? Was it written merely for the
purpose of formal labor fot fee
Cross questioned before the committee
on the real estate pool by Mr.. Nicker-
son, who owned the ironizing process,
Gen. Garfield was asked "Did you
file with the Board OF Public Works
of this District brief or opinion, writ
ten, printed, or other, upon the sub
jcct of the De Golyer pavement ?"
Mr.. Garfield's answer was 81 could
not say did" "Did you a. any time
appear before the Board and make
any argument whatever ?" was an
other query, and the answer of MIR.
Garfield was
do not remember that | did; but
did speak to Gov. Shepherd on the sub
ject giving my opinion in It's favor"
That wfs all and as events proved, II
was worth to Garfield's employers all
they paid him. If that brief is existence
why not print it now? 1t would be al
interesting addition to the literature q
the campaign.
The daily gazette., 1880-07-21
WHAT A CANDIDATEl

The De Golyer case is a very simple
one, when it is squarely stated. Mr..
Garfield was Chairman of the Commit
tee on Appropriations. The contractors
were Interested in procuring the passage
OF an appropriation for certain object.
Strangers TO Mr.. Garfield, they approach
ed him through third party and hired
him fo- $1,000. This sum he received
and KEPT.
Hired him for what7 As to then rea-
SONS for paying him S. 900 there cannot
be the slightest doubt. In their letters
TO each other they boasted of having
bought the man who held the purse
strings of the nation. AS far as they
were concerned, the 5,0OO were bribe.
Mr.. GARFIELD chooses TO take a differ
ent view Of il. He says that he honestly
earned the 5000 by rendering legal ST. r
vices to The contractors that he prepared
a brief; that the 5000 were fee.
The appropriation which the COLI
tractors desired, and to procure which
they paid Mr.. Garfield 5000, passed the
| committee Of which he was Chairman
The intentions of the contractors were
thus accomplished. They received from
Mr. Garfield what they considered al
equivalent for $1,000.
But the legal services which, accord
ing to Mr.. Garfield's view of the trans
action, were 10 earn the $1,000, wer,
never rendered by him. There is con
elusive evidence that he never made ali,
argument for his clients; no hlmal
being has ever seen the brief which h
says he prepared.
Mr.. G rtield was bribed by De Golye
x Mcclellan, as he was bribed by Oake
Ames; and in both cases he committe
perjury TO shield himself.--N. Y. Sun.

WHAT JUSTICE SwAYNE SAID -
After hearing the evidence in Court in
the case in which Garfield is charged
with having taken bnbe from De
Golyer, this U. S. Court Judge said
"The agreement with Gen. Garfield,
member of Congress,to pay him s., 900 as
acontingent fee for procuring a contract
which was itself made to depend upon
future appropriation by Congress-which
appropriation could only come from a
committee of which he was chairman
was sale of official influence, which no
veil can cover, against the plainest prin-
ciples of public policy. No counsellor
at-law while holding high office has a
right to put himself in position Of temp
tation, and under pretence of making a
legal argument exert his official influ-
ence upon public officers dependent up
on his future action. Certainly the
courts of justice will never lend them
selves TO enforce contracts obtained by
such influence"
Judge Swayne is Republican and
his language is to the point. No
friend of General Garfield has dared
to deny what the Court said on the
occasion.
The editor of the Ne0s, by assault
ing the readers of the GAZETTE, many
of whom are his superior, at the legal
profession of which he claims to be a
practitioner, only shows the i'll man.
ners which deficiency frequently
causes man to fall into. The read
ers of the GAZETTE have a very light
appreciation of that mode of defend.

JUSTICE SwAYNE of the United
States Supreme Court, is Republi-
can. But he is no dou' right in
what he says about Gartield's bribe-
taking. He throws dirt from high
seat in the Republican camp. The
fact of his words being uttered before
Garfield's nomination docs not help
Garfield's party, either. Now let the
flood gates of Radical billingsgate be
aimed at Judge Swayne instead of at
Democratic newspapers and theil
readers.
