OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

There is at present much influence
brought to bear on the republican
managers to send some Of their most
distinguished speakers into the south
ern States, with view of making a
thorough canvass in that section. l
believe if such action is taken it will
arouse in southern republicans an
amount Of courage and enthusiasm
never before known, and doubtless
have the effect of drawing into the
party many Of the Whites who are
growing sick of democratic methods
and democratic rule.
If sach men as Senator Blame,
Hoar, Conkling and Window, Gen.
Hs~ley and scores of Others who
might be named, would 60 into the
south, show the people there Of what
sort Of material the republican party
Of the north consists, and give to the
party in the South, the weight and
responsibility of their endorsement,
they might SO strengthen the hands
Of Gen. Longstreet and the few such
republicans as he in that section, as
to enable them to build up an organ.
ization that would be useful and ef.
fective. Northern men are ignorant
of what southern loyal mon have suf-
fered by their firm devotion to prin-
ciple, and it is time they receive sub.
stantial support and encouragement
such as would be given them by
sending there some of our ablest
speakers.
" Old Washingtonians know, and
they know it from long observation
of congressional affairs, that each
years experience in the Senate, adds
to the efficiency Of men. The course
Of business in that body is so unlike
that in the house, that often the tai
ents which sway the latter body, are
powerless In the other, and it is
equally true with some Of the most
influential Senators. Mr.. Window
for example, or Mr.. Anthony would
make but little mark in the House.
Maine has been specially fortunate
inplacing Mr.. Hamlin in position
where he has been and can be OF
great benefit to the country, TO his
state and to bis party, and as long as
he will sonsent to remain there she
should continue to re:elect him.
The South was fully aware of the
advantage to be derived from con-
tinuing men Of known ability in the
public service, and it is the secret
Of her ancient supremacy. Senator
Hamlin has bad long experience in
public life, and his character for
honesty and integrity has never been
questioned. 1t will be to the disai.
vantage Of his state and the nation
il Mr.. Hamlin is withdrawn from the
senate.
AT the grand ratification meeting
in New York city Wednesday night,
two things we're conspicuous-the
lack of enthusiasm and the absence
Of Tammany. The effort to arouse
the Germans was n fat failure, in
fact more Of allure than the late
lamented attempt to stampede the
soldier vote TO Hancock. Mr.. Tilden
presided. Speaker Randall made "a
tariff speech, Thomas Ewing, OF
Ohio, gave mis- views upon finance,
and j. Randolph Tucker, the States
Fighter from Virginia, declared his
undying loyalty to the Union--that
is, the democratic idea OF the Union.

Iris safe to say that the proposed
FiShback amendment to the Arkan-
sas constitution has been defeated by
at least three thousand votes. This
amendment sought to prevent any leg
islAtion looking to the future settle
ment of what is known as the Holford
bonds, upon which claim of some
$4,000, more or less, has been set up.
Many years ago the state of Ar
kansas authorized the negotia-
ton of a loan of some $5OO,OOO
and arranged with New York trust
company for the amount, the latter
afterwards drawing $l25,OOO from
Holford's, Of London, and then failing.
The opponents of the measure claimed
that the state of Arkansas was not
responsible, though the debt has been
partially settled. In the recent
election, majority of those voting
on the amendment cast their bal
lots against a proposed settlement
but it failed because the
constitution requires a majority Of all
votes cast as necessary to carry a ques-
tion, and many who voted in the gen
eral election, failed to vote on the
amendnlent either way. The question
stands Just as it did before the eloc,
ton.

Judge Wright was met at the depot
and escorted to the court house by a
mounted escort ofone or two hundred
young gentlemen and ladies thisinclud-
ed 1.-THE young mems Hancock club. This
is the high-credit headquarters. The
demonstration was very creditable,
though not enthusiastic. Wilson
rode up with a friend, who met him.
The speaking is going on in the court
house yard to a crowd of 1900 perhapg,
Judge Wright was presented on the
platform with bouquet in behalf of
the ladies, by Il. i. Bullock,
attorney general. Both speeches were
neat. Mr.. Wilson was introduced by
Mr.. Milton H. Brown, who is one of
his supporters. He began by express
ing his pleasure at the presence Of
the ladies and paid a glowing tribute
to the sex. He had not talked ten
minutes until he elicited the heartiest
applause, and from that time on ne
riveted the attention of the crowd. He
alluded pleasantly to the brass bands,
the flags and the hurrah in honor of
Judge Wright and from that time on
he seemed to carry the crowd with
him. He told Judge Wright again
how harmony could be obtained and
that it would come no other way.
| Prolonged applause.] Instead of
this being Wright crowd
much of it is from the country
and it looks very much like Wilson
crowd. He will make an immense
gain here. The leaders are for Wright,
as in other towns, and the people are
generally for Wilson. Colonel Ed

STRIKES among the cotton opera
tives Of England attract the attention
of the cotton trade. Over 100000
operatives have been affected by the
recent strike at Accrington, England,
and throughout north and northeast
Lsncanshire a reduction Of working
days to three per week is probable, or
a lockout may follow. The Lancan-
shire masters, as an off-set to the
strike, will be likely to reduce wages
fifteen per cent in all districts con-
tributing to the support Of the strik-
ers, and part Of the fund will be
devoted to tie support Of the masters
of Accrington, whose hands are bought
out by the wages committee. 1t IS
the old conflict between labor and
capital over again-a desire on the
part of the labOrer to dictate what
his employer should pay, and deter
mination on the part of the latter not
to be dictated to when the state OF
trade will not warrant it. There is
also trouble brewing at Fall River,
MASSACHUSETTS, in this country. The
mill.oNyners there have resolved to
reduce wages ten per cent after the
end Of the present month, and the
operatives contend that the propitiouf
business prospect renders such an ac'
tion unjust and wholly One-sided
While all this goes on, cotton gath
erers on the plantations Of the sHut!l
receive seventy-fve cents per hun
dred pounds for picking the staple in
the fields, and planters give work to
all who want it.

Look Ont for II.

On the 25th of September will oc-
cur the perihelion Of Jupiter. That
giant planet then reaches his nearest
point to the sun, and is also within a
few days of his opposition or nearest
point to the earth. Jupiter comes at
that epoch 100000 miles nearer the
central orb. He is then, however,
more than 450,000,000 miles from the
sun; fortunately far enough away to
counteract and mollify the increased
attraction between two such mighty
masses. 1t is safe to feel that the
Rubicon Of Jupiter's perihelion is
passed, for the fifteen days yet to be
completed count as nothing in a
revolution requiring nearly H.
600 Of our days or twelve of our
years. Twelve years must pass be-
fore the conditions will again be
as favorable for observation. Jupiter
comes beaming over the eastern hori-
zOn about eight o'clock, bright enough
to cast a shadow and afford glimpse
Of his moons through good opera
glass, Nothing can be more interest
ing than to study the phases of the
four diamond points Of light that bear
witness to the presenceof Jupiter's s
moons, Jupiter turns on its axis in
about 10 hours, so that an observer on
his equator would be carried round at
the rate of nearly 800 miles a minute
instead of the II miles that mark the
comparatively moderate progress made
by an inhabitant at the earth's equa-
tor. Jupiter rises now about eight;
at the end of the month the rising
will be about six. The September
moon fulls about the 18th. IL is the
harvest moon,
