Having read in yonr columns the view
prevented by zone or two writers with refe,
encs to the great political question to b
solved By the people at the approachin,
presidential election, I have concluded L
ventilate my own views upon the subject.
IL the first place I am not q third tern
advocate, not because U. 8. Grant is an a..
pirlnt fora third term, but because I am Q
the opinion that the third term idea IL no
altogether in %con.onance with republican
principles. Were he gifted to an extraordi
nary extent With eurpassing administrative
ability, endowed with superior states nan
ship. and the possessor of exalted executive
capacity above all other men, there would
be . shadow of an excuse, at least, 70,
again placing in his hands the reins Of
presidential Office aud authority. These
reasons, however, cannot be urged in bis
behalf. for in the selection Of his cabinet Of.
fcefs, when m incumbent of the Office Of
chief executive, be did not evince the same
rare judgment and sagscity he had previ
ously exhibited in q military point Of view.
Again, lam sensible of the fact that 1 ex.
presa the views of at least two-,hirds of the
republican voters Of the United States, when
I ~ the people do not want Gen. Grant
president Of the United States for 4 third

Is that be has already been surfeited with

voters Of the republican party think, and it

JuTE.-The culture of jute, says the Raleigh
O6serrer, is sure to become one of the industries
of our State. The lands in the Eastern belt Of
the State are adapted to its growth, and espe-
cially are the abandoned rice plantations suita-
BILE. The jute grows vigorously on such places,
with long and good fibre. 1t can be produced
at about oneeighth the cost of cotton, and from
an acre of it $40 to 800 can be made, fixing
the present price of jute as basis. The great
and varied uses of jute are hardly known, but it
is made up In dozens of things. Ii comes to US
here principally in the shape of cotton bagging.
OF this there are used, say, 100000 yards to
cover 200 900 bales Of cotton raised in the State
There are very fine specimens of jute stalks
grown in the State now on exhibition in the Ag-
ncultural Museum, which were sent Colonel
Polk some tW or three years ago.

THE WESTERN CRoP.-Our Western crop re-
ports, in another column, says the New York
Bulletin, reflect the beneficial effects Of the late
rains. From Kansas, the tone is changed from
dependency to entire satisfaction with the pros
pect and full crop in that State is now antici-
pated. From some sections of Illinois, there
is more complaint than a week ago; but the
prospects indicate at least full average crop for
that State. Iowa and Nebraska still complain
of ungenal weather add poor prospects, especi-
ally the former Stale. Minnesota, though the
season there is q late one, finds some compensa-
tons in the fact, and anticipates a better crop
than in 1879
