Mr. (iroesbeck of Ohio does not agree with those- democrats who are laboring to re-organize their party on ante-bellum principles, as his letter recently published shows. Being mentioned and interviewed as the democratic candidate for governor, he declines the honor proffered, and in the letter of which we have spoken, gives hi? views in regard to the political situation. His first proposition is that the democratic party is the same as dead. “1 believe,’ says he, “the historical democratic organ “ization is spoiled. Blundering constant “ly during the past ten years, and shatter “ed by many defeats, it surrendered final “ly at the last Presidential election. It can “not recall that surrender or the confess ion then made, and i! has no longer “strength enough for victory. That a democrat so prominent as Mr. (Iroesbeck should make the above confession i? very significant. Thousands of democrats agree with his opinion, but there are few who have the courage to state what they think as boldly as he has. Having thus avowed the weakness of the old party, he pro poses the formation of a new one to take its place. Looking the field over and see ing the democracy utterly prostrate he says: “In this extremity it will be wise “to lay aside the old organization and en “ter into a new one. The new organiza tion should accept the results of the war, "as was done at Baltimore, and it should "accept them in good faith and so as to “command the confidence of the people; “and in order to command the confidence “of the people the new organization suouia oe gometntng ilmerent lrorn a re “cutof the old one. There should be “no exclusiveness about it, nor should it ,4be merely democratic. Mr. Groesbeck would call his new par ty the “Liberal Democracy.” Its princi ples he would have somewhat like those adopted at Baltimore, aud yet on the tariff radically different, lie would assent to negro suffrage, oppose monopolies and centralization, favor free trade and a strict construction of the constitution. How his new party could be any more orthodox upon negro suffrage thau the republican party we fail to comprehend, or be any more opposed to monopolies and centrali zation. The main plank in Mr. Groes beck's platform is that in favor of free trade, which is a phrase so indefinite in meaning as it used by those who pretend to advocate it that to fully understand Mr. Groesbeck he will have to write another letter in explanation. It is a phrase which sounds well, but a principle which even Adam Smith admits to be impracticable, and therefore Mr. Groesbeck will have to tell us what he means when he talks about a prohibitory tariff aud free trade. But the democrats of Maine are forbid den by the call for their State Conventior to adopt Mr. Groesbeck's ideas and sug gestions. They have taken their positioi with Mr. Thurman. They have hai enough of “Liberals,” aud propose no\ to go back to the resolutions of!)«, whic Mr. Groesbeck sneers at, to discover they can their precise meaning. Thes varying opinions of democrats in Ohio an elsewhere make certain one thing, ths the party is sadly demoralized, divided without principle, and drifting about in political fog from which they cannot fin deliverance. LETTER FROM NAPLES. Naples, June JOili, 1878. To the Editor of the Journal. Leaving Home at 2 P. M we reached thi cttjr, after a very pleasant and interesting journey by rail of 7 1-2 hours through the Alban mountains, and among the fertile fields of Southern Italy. We passed many ancient town* and ruined castles, but will nut stop to (Inscribe them. Along the route We saw men, women‘and children, reaping grain (with the old ntcklaj and gathering it into bundles. Tin cattle often seemed assisting in gathering tin straw. They are mostly white, and havo verj long horns, especially the oxen. Sheep ar. also qailn abundant, and many goats wen seen. Our Indian corn seems to he cultivates to n considerable extent, but we should judg that It did net thrive at well at with us. At ter sweltering in the heat of Home it seem almost like paradise to enjoy the cool to breeze of this lorely place. We beliere w have heard some one say, “See Naples and die.” We propose to see Naples, but the other part we wish to leave out for the pres ent. This city, like Florence and Home, seems to be pretty much deserted by trangers, but in the cooler months tiny are the favorite places of resort, ami the hotels, several of which arc viry fine (especially the Hotel Costranzi in Home, said to be "the best in Italy) are then crowded. Through the win dow in front of us we look across the beauti ful bay to grand old Vesuvius, whose brow is crowned with an everlasting wreath of smoke and vapor issuing from the crater. Day be fore yesterday we took one ot the most de lightful steamboat excursions down to the island of Capri, which, rising with its grand precipitous walls of rock, forms a part ot the harbor on the South. On the way there (dist ant IS miles) we stopped at the romantic town of Sorrento, the scene, we suppose, of Mrs. Stowe's “Agnes of Sorrento." It is about 12 miles from Naples on the opposite side of the hay, and is built upon high Jcliffs of stone which have been extensively quarri. d under the city. These quarries opening upon the sea, the town 1ms the the appi trance of being built over numerous caves. The streets are gained through a narrow defile. On nearing the Island of Capri one of the finest sights to he seen anywhere met our view. Above tow ered for thousands of feet the perpendicular cliffs and mountains, while below they were retleeted in thebcautiful Mediterranean, who-v waters are of the most exquisite blue, far ex ceeding our expectations. Fussing round a part of the Island, the steamer hove to and boats came along side in which we embarked for the famous Blue Grotto under the cliffs, hard by. The entrance is rather small an 1 we had to lie down to save our cranium*. When we rose up inside the cave, what a sight we beheld—v.-e wire veritably In fairy land. Talk about enchanted castles and Black Crook dissolving scenes. Here was something in nature outrivalling them all, ar.d as we gazed down into the it iming liquid blue beneath us, and at the gorgeous blue arches above, we were in an ecstacy of delight. We seemed in fairy land. As the oars glided into the water they became shining blades of sil ver disturbing a sea of most exquisite azure crystal. As the water fell from the oars it turned to molten silver, and the spray was tinged with the crimson rays of Aurora. An Italian stood on a rock ut the father end of this mystical marine palace, gesticulating tremend ously, but to us very unintelligibly of course. After going through his grotesque pantomime for a lew minutes, he stripped off his coat and shirt, and leaping into the abyss was trans- j formed, as thuugb by magic, into a silver s a nionster. lie swam about like a shining white fish fur a short time, and then mounted his perch and received his half franc from j each person. It seemed to us that we had never before seen anything so beautilul as this enchanted grotto ot the sea. On the other side of the Island is the Green Grotto, which, however we did not visit. The shal lowness of the water there gives it a beautiful green color, while in th Blue Grotto its depth imparts to it the color which gives it its name. I' course under the brows cl the rocky fastnesses i until we came opposite the village of Capri, when we again disembarked and w ere taken j ashore by the boatmen, who. we thiDk, must be in league with the steamer, lor instead of running into the wharf at Naples and Sorrento, j she lay off and compelled the passengers in j addition to a good round sum for fare, to pay the boatmen a liberal fee for their services. In fact, almost every one in these Italian cities seems to try and get a living from strangers. Such persistent begging as we have been an noyed with, especially on the Island ol Capri, we know nothing of in America, and wo hope to goodness we never shall. As we are riding along the streets, men and even women and children often, with infants in their arms or exposing to our view some horrible deformity, will pursue us at a rapid run, for a consider able distance, with outstretched palm and im ploring look and speech. Everywhere you go, everywhere you turn, you are beseiged by these poor creatures. This is as it seems, very contemptible business, bn; when we con sider the vast population of, for instance, this great city ol Naples, which, with its suburbs, numbers over 000,000 souls, the wonder at the poverty and wretchedness so prevalent ceases. Here is this enormous city, each one of whose inhabitants, from the merest infant to the old men and women mtlst be fed and clothed each day, and how they all manage to exist we cannot explain. There appears, to be very little foreign commerce here, and not much enterprise, and under these circum stances a quarter of tlie population are com pelled to either obtain a precarious subsist ence by begging or starve, while at least another equally large portion, including hotel keepers and servants, guides, drivers, boat men, etc., obtain tlitir support none the less surely though the more honorably from strangers. Of the remaining mob-tv of the population, at least one-half, including the old Bourbon and other wealthy and noble families, the soldiers and police, ar.- non-producing—a heavy tax upon the resources of the country. The remaining quarter of the population, comprising the tradesmen and laboring classes, manage by hard work and lung hours to live more or less respectably. The Italian of the lowest class seems to bo a lazy', good-for notblng fellow, nfien seen sleeping on the sidew alk or on a- wall with the sun pouring down upon him. The poor little donkeys ap pear to have the hardest time of any, for they are compelled to carry immense loads upon their backs. We cannot wonder at the Ital ian's shifilessness, for what lias he to look forward to. So bright future seems open to 1 him, but only a miserable existence to drag through. But let us return to the pleasant village of Capri, which consists of a considerable num ber ol detached villas or country residences and hotels, nestling snugly under the moun tains and surrounded by gardens and small groves of fruit trees. We bad among our fellow passengers an enterprising young ling- 1 lishman, a ship broker in Naples, who told us that his brother had married on the island and kept a hotel in the town. So we went 1 there and got a nice dinner (tableVT hote) in 1 Vie s^u^e, with a magnificent view of tl.e j Mediterranean before us. As wo landed from the boats the donkey owners beseiged us and l follow'd! us up to the gates of the hotel, Uad t mg their donkeys and repeating “Donkey, P oignor.' “Tine donkey, Signor.” But a donkey ride in the heat, up the steep moun 1 tain whose rocky, barren soles tow ered hund t reds of fret above us, though rather tempting did not quite allure us to mount. As we ap proachcd the island we had seen great volumes I of dust rolling along at the foot of the muun tain, and on going up some distance beyond our hotel we could see far. far above us, nu n digging and women carrying the earth and stone in baskets on their heads o\ er a frail bridge and pitching it over the precipice, where bounding along from crag t.i crag it j resounded through the mountains uni finally droppied with tremendous speed Into the bank below, raising the fine dust in immense clouds. These toiling men and w omen so far up the heights, working away to build a road, seemed hardly human, but rather like mountain spirits at play. At b o'clock we went on board tin steamer, and after a rather tedious passage reached our hotel about six, well satisfied with our day’s sight seeing. Yesterday morning we took a carriage pre ferring that to the railroad, and rode through the city, which with its suburbs stretches along the shore for 12 or 11 miles out to Pompeii, about 13 miles from our hotel. As we were passing through the streets we saw many odd things. Though it i was Sunday most ol the shops were open, and the day did not seem particularly different from any other except that there were more people in the street and more country fulkN in with donkeys and carta laden with produce. The favorite country team seems to be three animals (sometimes a mule and two horses) II harnessed abreast, the centre one with an e immense saddle resplendent with a high pom IllC'l somewhat after the pattern of a Chinese pagoda, with small bells around Hie top, all i 'Splendent with shining brass. These sad dles look like ancient days, and probably are one of the old heirlooms handed down from fithertoson. A long procession oflhe “Vir gin and child’ (wooden images held aloft) obstructed our way and rutiled our tempers for we were in the hot sun. Finally it turned about and passed us. and we whirled away through the white dust to the buried city, which eighteen hundred years ago was overwhelmed to the ih pth of about twenty feet with hot mud and ashes from Mt. Vesuvius, on which inti resting occasion the whole top ol the moun tain was torn off an J scattered for ten miles each way, h aving a blackened smoking desert twenty miles in diameter where a few hours before were large cities, villages and fertile fields. About one third only ot tile city has been un covered. The work is very laborious and lias necessarily to be pursued with great cau tion and directed with enlightened skill. As tic oat is thrown out it is placed on railroad trucks and hauled away. The Government 1: -op a boot SO men mploved at this work, and til admission fee is charged during week ’■ays. 1 he soldiers who are stationed there to guard the place are not allowed to receive any lees, hut they ingeniously get around that hv offering to sell you maps and photographs. The unearthed buildings prove the city to have been a very ancient one when i: was destroyed. Stones are worn away by car riage wheels. lVet, and hands which it must have taken centuries to accomplish. We will not at:, nipt any minute description of the place, and in fact our hurried visit of two 1: iurs arm ng its interesting monuments would it admit ot it as we could only get a ner.al idea of how1 the city looked when it was de stroyed. yo is the b*'*t in tin r. i The only True and Per feet Dve.

There are harnesses for business, 1 trucking, carting, teaming, express n and fancy, single and double. And rytliing entering into the composi te harness is manufactured here. In the rear of this is the room for the stowage of all kinds of harness leather, of which a large 'toek has to be kept on hand. It is purchased at first cost, mostly at the West. On the fifth and last floor we find a busy place—a very beehive of industry—alive with smart and intelligent workmen, engaged in the practical and fundamental part of the business—the manufacture of harness. A crew of thirty men is employed, some of them commanding very high wages, and all expe rienced hands. This firm has also a shop in I’ittston, where eight men are employed in the making of harness. In the loft next south of the main building on Water street, four teen men are at work on saddles. What we should call the “frames” arc received in large quantities, nearly all the remainder of the harness being made here. Fifty saddles per week arc turned out. A portion of Concert Ilall block, on State street, is occupied by the firm for carrying on the business of silver and gold plating of har ness trimmings. Fourteen workmen are em ployed. Specimens ot their work seen upon the elegant harnesses manufactured here speak for themselves. Mr. J. 13. Higgins is foreman of the har ness department, Mr. C. L. Bailey of the sad dlery department, and Mr. John T. Bickford of the plating department. It will he noticed by the enumeration above made, that the firm employ seventy-one hands, just the men that help a community, and that make up tiic prosperity ot a place. As we have hinted, the goods manufactured have a wide sale, not only in Maine, but in New Hampshire, Mas sachusetts. Rhode Island, Minnesota, and other States. They generally have orders ahead requiring six weeks' time to fill, 'they push with energy the sale of their goods, and where', i r they sell once they are sure to trade again. The business of the firm amounts to about SISo/1 J annually. We are glad thus, from time to time, to make a note of what Augusta i- doing in a quiet way.
