THE NATIONAL FETE.

PARIS, July 15.-The national fete was a
brilliant success. When booming cannon in
the morning ushered in the rejoicing, the
city had been profuseIy decorated with tri-
umphal arches, flags, banners and streamers.
The ensign of America, and other nations,
mingled with the omnipresent tricolor. The
fashionable quarters of the city, though not
absolutely bare, were very sparingly befag
ged. Nearly all the shops were closed. The
ceremony of distributing flags to the army
occupied half an hour, about 900 being dis
tributed, and half-minute guns firing and
bands playing. After this part of the cere-
mony was over, Gen. Fare and his staff sta
toned themselves opposite Pres
ident Grevy, and the march
past began. The Algerian troops zouaves,
chasseurs d'afrique and spays were partic-
ularly applauded. The infantry and cavalry
went past rather unequally. At night car
riage traffic was suspended, the streets
teeming with promenaders. The site of the
bastile was traced out in blocks of granite
on the ground. The illuminations on the
Louvre, Chamber of Deputies, Palias du
Luxembourg and Bourse were very fine.
Private illuminations were lavish. At the
exhibition of the festival of two years ago
around colossal figure representing repub-
lie, shower of bombs lighted up the scene
with every color of the rainbow.

GENERAL FOREIGN.

PARIS, July 15.-The Echo Agricole con-
siders the harvest prospects in the north with
tolerable weather are eminently promising,
good in the central districts, scarcely up to
the mark in the west and east, and well to
the average in the southwest and districts
around Paris. Austria suffers much from
wet weather. In Hungary barley, wheat and
rye are very promising and oats and maize
are considerably above the average. The
Italian harvest is superior both as to quality
and quantity Russia is complaining loudly
of deficiency, partially owing to the pres
ence of myriads of insects.
CoNsTANTINopLE, July 15.-The Porte has
sent dispatch to its representatives abroad
announcing that the Monteneerins had sud
denly attacked the Albanian/ positions at
Vanja. The sighting lasted two hours, when
the Montenegrins retreated, leaving thirteen
of their number en- the fsad. ~
correspondent at Gonstantinopfe saws
Goschen continues to urge the Porte to satisfy
the claims of Montenegro, and understand on
excellent authority that the latter is now dis
posed to offer territory near Dulcijno in ex-
change for the disputed territory. The state
of affairs here is regarded as most critical, the
new war minister having pronounced strongly
in favor of resistance to the decisions of the
Berlin conference.
LONDON, July ia Berlin dispatch says,
the government has published during the last
few days many reports of harvest expecta-
tions in different provinces, and resume of
all the statements appears in
the semi-official report of the
provincial correspondence, which says it was
geneally feared that the harvest would be
miserable one, but after the very favorabl 9
weather of June, it is hoped the harvest will
exceed former expectations. Reports from
different provinces Of the monarchy given by
agricultural societies, state that the fear Of
distress appears to have no foundation
Whatever. Corn has certainly suffered very
much from frost, and reports from many
provinces are very unfavorable in this respect;
but in some highly cultivated districts a good
corn harvest may be Yeckoned on.

WASHINGTON, July 15.-The department
OF agriculture reports the condition of cot.
ton, corn and wheat as following:
Cotton-The condition is reported at an
average of one hundred, the highest report
IN July for several years. There are some
complaints of drought in the State of South
Carolina, and of too much rain in Missis-
slppi, Louisiana and Arkansas. Insect in.

Corn-The increase in area planted In corn

more than last year at the same time. There
are some complaints of drought
In the South Atlantic, while in the
valley OF the Mississippi and those States
north OF the Ohio river. there is complaint
of too much rain.
The Pacific States report verp high con-
dition of wheat. The general average of
winter wheat July first, was ninety five
against ninety-one year ago. 1t improved
slightly during June. The whole South falls
of nearly fourth, but the heavy winter
wheat region north of the Ohio river rules
high at ninety-eight. The Middle States are
three per cent. above average, and the Paci-
nc four per cent. West of the Mississippi,
crop averages eighty-four against eighty
nine last year. Spring wheat averages nine
ty-one, the same as July, 1879. This shows
great decline from June when the average
was ninety seven. The New England States
average ninety-nine. The Middle States
north of the Ohio ninety-six West of the
Mississippi, the general average is ninety.
Minnesota being one hundred and one, while
Nebraska falls to sixty-two. Iowa stands

LoUIsvILLE'S CENSUS.
Efforts to Secure a Correction of an Unfair
and Imperfect Enumeration.


LOUISVILLE, July is. There has been such
Dissatisfaction over the result of the census
enumerators in this city that the board of
trade employed G. X. Carson, we'll known
statistician. to take the census of one ward.
The result is q communication to Seperinten-
dent Walker from which the following 10 taken:
After alluding to the death of Supervisor
Winlock at the beginning of the work the lat
ter says. His successor was compelled to begin
the work of enumeration Immediately without
time to familiarize himself with the circum-
stances of louisville, or to hardly acauaint
himself with the division of work
in the city and without the cooperation, sug-
gestion and advice that Mr.. Winlock had
sought. Under these circumstances this board
is Justified in submitting to you that the
enumeration and its execution had not the
supervision and cooperation of effort provided
in the law designed by you and contemplated
by Mr.. Winlock.
After alluding to the dissatisfaction at the
appointment of MIR. Carson. the letter con-
tinues Mr.. Carsons report is hereby presented,
and its comparison will show how carefully
and critically the test of q new enumeration
was applied. Total for the United States GEN.
sus, 10,960; for the board of trade census,
l1,677; an increase for the board of trade CEN
sus of IT.
There are seventeen wards in the city of
Louisville, and the above taken as basis of
correction would give an increase of 5000 in
the city. proportionate correction on the
towns reported population would require also
about the same increase. 1t is submitted
therefore that there is an error
in the total reported population of Louisville
of at least 5000, that is, the reported popula-
tion should be increased about seven per cent,
and an increase of population in comparison
with the returns of 1870 should be thereby SIX
per cent. instead of twenty
eight per cent. as given in
round numbers by the supervisor list. These
occurrences are of no inconsiderable magni-
tude, and seriously affect the rank of Louis
vile in the classification of cities. 1t is be-
lieved that the census bureau will
interest itself to insure q cor
rection, and with that view I an directed
by this board to respectfully inquire what steps
will secure new enumeration of the popula-
tion of Louisville, or what condition an emu
meration taken under direction of the muici-
pal government will be accepted by you and
given official sanction.

Garfelds nomination was undoubtedls
one of the worst the Republicans could have
made. We say one of the worst, because
Colfax's, Patterson's, Subsidy Pomeroy's,
or Boss Shepherds might have been as bad.
Mr.. Blaine, Notwithstanding the Mulligan
business and various other scandals, is not
to be mentioned in the same category. He
was never convicted; Garfield was. No COM
mittee of Congress ever reported that he had
committed perjury; and he was never de-
clared bribe. taker by the judgment of any
court, declaration which the Poland COM
mittee made for Garfield in one case, and
the Cook county circuit court in another.
Garfeld's nomination puts in issue the
hypocrisies and yenalities of the era of
Christian craftsmanship, when men like him
prayed and stole, snitfied and pocketed
bribes, until, in 1874, the people rose in
utter wrath and swept the Republican party
into minority. That Judgment will doubt
less be repeated. The Chicago convention
invited repetition of the Judgment when it
hoisted the Credit Mobil1er ticket
Garfeld's nomination is also triumph
of the Ohio or Hayes type of Republicanism
over the stalwart article. 1t was like the
touch of death to the remnants of the party
in the South. There the old guard has prac-
tically disbanded. Stanley Matthews or
Hayes himself would have been more well
come to the Republicans of that section.
Neither whites nor blacks can perceive any
reason why they should support a man who
guided Hayes into the betrayal of
1877, who upset Packard and Chamber
lain, and who offered the entire federal pat
ronage of the South in payment for confed-
crate votes for himself for speaker. The
stalwart Republicans have had enough of
Hayes, and they are not eager to undergo
the same experience with Garfield.
Garfield must lose large percentage of
the honest Republican vote. He will not
draw single recruit from the Democracy,
and it is absurd to suppose that self-respect-
ing independent voters, seeking mainly
moral purity of administration, would go to
a man whose record is blotched with such
offenses. His nomination was q colossal
mistake, and the party understood this in
forty-eight hours after it was committed.
