People aredying in the streets women are sell teg their children for food, and many are living on roots. Owing to late storms some apprehen sion is fell as to the safety of crops. The dam age, however, so far, seems to be local rather than general. In many sections no more rain .has fallen than was needed and the general condition of crops up to this time is more than usually favorable. At the village of Bloomer, 14 miles from Chippewa Falls, Wis., on the morning of June 11 two darns were washed out, carry three bridges, two barns, several small build ings aud also seriously damaging Smith, Brooks Macautey's saw mill.

A special from Red Wing, June 5th, says: Between 11 and 12 6'clock to-day, this City was visited by a disastrous rain storm, listing fifteen minutes and doius great dam age. The buildings between Bush street and Barn blufl suflc ed much damage from the blow, as it was terrific in that quarter. At 10 a. m. a house on Plum street, owned by Allen Howe, was flooded four feet deep, and the oc cupants barely escaped with their lives. Great da-nage was done to goods stored in the base ments on Third street. Bush street is impass ible, and on Fourth street there are piles of debrii ten fee* high. A woman whose chil dren were missing was running through the streets, causing much excitement. Cows be longing to a man named Oleson were drowned in the barn. No lives were lost, fortunately, but hal the storm beeu at night many would have suffered. The lowest figures of the loss is put at $10,000. At Rush City, Minn, on the evening of June 10, the most terrific rain storm visited this vicinity that has been witnessed for years. About 4 p. M., it commenced and rained stead ily without cessation unlil after midnight amidst a mo*t terrible electrical display. The! small creeks, which were already full to the overflowing, were speedily made into rivers, tnd the mirsbes into lakes. All the wagon ridges across Rush Creek are gone, and val eys, fields and meadow lands are completely inundated. The damage by reason of the overflow of tne creek will reach several thous and dollars Wheat fields in many instances are covered and the crop will be almost entirely ruined. Other damage is reported, trains were delayed, bridges were swept away, landslides occurred, small creeks were swollen to rivers and mill dams swept away. The St. Croix rlvtjr was higher than ever before known, and all crossing was suspended at the ferry, Where it is usually only a few rods wide, was nearly a mile wide, covering the entire valley.

At o'clock the burning oil overflowed and ran faown the hillside, consuming everything in its course. The Octave refining and Acme oil works, one of the largest refinneries in the world, is now burning. The oil ran into Oil creek and threatened destruction to a large amount of prdperty in the city. Persons re Biding in the neighborhood, have, without their household goods, gone to places of safe ty. At 6 o'clock the fire was still increasing, having reached FrankHn and .Washington streets, and threatened the destruction of the railroad bridge. The fire departments „,from Corry, Oil City and also from War 'r ren are in the city in answer to a telegram from the mayor for aid, acting with the fire ^department of Titusville. At 7 o'clock the buildings on both sides of the street were burning and about 100,000 barrels of oil There is great excitement In the city, but the ^•business portion at this hour is believed to "be safe, being mostly composed of brick ^buildings. 1 tw St. *41.

The old beavers gave the youna ones rides on their broad, flat tails, all sliding down very rapidly. Just then one of the boys sneezed, when the bea vers disappeared like a flaah. :ua\\ Grain and Produce Market* St. Paol Market.

Second—The of June 7, says ia consequence of showers the wheat crop has gained strength, is growing rapidly and is now coming to ear in earlier districts. At market on Monday, the first ears shown were grown in Sussex from red winter Am erican. Unless there is Bome unexpected change harvest prospects is fairly promising. The deliveries of English wheat at provincial markets has been less than half those for the corresponding week last year. They were al so very meagre at Mark Lane. Holders show considerable firmness, which prevented any decltne beintr caused by the improved appear ance of the growing crop. Imports of foreign into London have been moderate. There was an unusually small proportion of American. Arrivals of Indian have begun, and assume in creased proportion, which bids fair to com pensate largely for the contracted Russian ex port. Business during the week was quiet and prices for most descriptions uuchanged. Red winter American improved, 6 pence per quarter in consequence of small offerings. Relative to the announced intention of the American ring to force up the price of red winter before the end of June, the probability of a material advance is remote as London trade has hitherto shown extreme disinclina tion to American speculative fluctuations. Ar rivals at ports of call have been very moder ate. The demand for wheat was less active in consequence of favorable weather, and buy ers have supplied themselves freely. Both red winters and 3 spring declined slight ly. The coast n«w bare of ngaize, the nom inal value being 36s. 6d.

The convention met June 5th at 11:45 a. iu., when Mr. Boutwell ottered the follow, ing: Resolvtd: That the National Republican ex ecutive committee be requested to prepare and present a method for the election of dele gates to the National Convention to be held in 1884,and to Issue instructions in conformi ty therewith. Several objections being made the resolu tion went over. The convention then by vote seated four Grant contestants from Kansas, one Grant and and one Sherman contestant from West Vir ginia, and two Grant contestants from Utah The platform was then adopted. IT IS AS FOLLOWS: The Republican party, in National Conven tion assembled, at the end of twenty y»*ais since the Federal Government was first corn mitted to its charge, submits to the people ol the United States this brief report of it s ad ministration It suppressed a rebellion which had armed nearly a million of men to subvert the Nation al authority- it reconstructed the Union ol States with freedom instead of slavery as its corner-stone it transformed 4,000,000 human beings from the likeness of things to the rank of citizens: it relieved Congress from the infa mous work of hunting fugitive slaves, aud charged It to see that slavery does not exist it has raised the value of our paper currency from 38 per cent to the par of gold It has re. stored, upon a solid basis, payment in coin ol all National obligations, and has given us s currency absolutely good and equal in every part of our extended country it has lifted the credit of the Nation from the point where 4 per cent bonds sold at 86, to that where 4 per cent oonds are eagerly sought at a premium. Under the administration railways have in creased from 81,000 miles iu 1860 to mors than 82,000 miles in 1879. Our foreign trads increased from $700,000,000 to tl.150.000,000 In the same time, and our exports, which were 120.000,000 less than our imports in 1860, wers t'265 008,000 more than our imports in 1879. Without resorting to loans, it has since the War closed, defrayed the ordinary expenses ol Government besides the accruing interest on the public debt, and has disbursed annually more than $30,U00,000 for soldiers' and sailors' pensions. It lias paid $880,0410,000 of the pub ic debt, and by refunding the balance at low er rates, has reduced the annual interest charge from nearly $160,000,000 to less than $89,000,000. All the industries of the country have revived, labor is in demand, wages have increased, and throughout the country there is evidence of a coming prosperity greater than we havejever enjoyed. UPON THIS KKCORD. the Republican party asks for the continued confidence and support of the people, and this Convention submits for their approval the following statement of the principles and pur joses which will continue to guide and inspire ,ts efforts. Firtt—We affirm tfiat the work of the Re- aublican party for the last twenty years has leen such as to commend it to the favor of the Nation that the fruits of the costly vie teries which we have achieved through im mense difficulties should be preserved that the peace regained should be cherished that the Union should be perpetuated, and that the liberty secured to this generation should be transmitted undiminished to other genera tions that the order established and the cred it acquired should never be impaired that the pensions promised should be paid that the debt so much reduced should be ex tinguished by the full payment of "every dol lar thereof that the reviving industries should be further promoted, and that the commerce already increasing should be steadily encour aged. Constitution of the United States is a supreme law and not a mere contract. Out of confederated States it made a sover eign Nation. Some powers are denied to the Nation, while others are denied to the States, but the boundary between the powers delegated and those reserved Is to be deter mined by the National and not by the State tribunal. Third -The work of popular education is one left to the care of the seve al states, but it is the duty of the National Government to aid that work to the extent of its constitutional ability. The intelligence of the Nation is but the aggregate of the intelligence in the sever al states, and that the destiny of the Nation must be guided not by the genius of any one State but by the average of alL Fourth—Constitution Fifth— Sixth—Since Seventh—That Som !r $10.26 Oats, No. 9 33l,iC Wheat, No. 2 98gc JTcWeege MarkeiTp^ Corn,....

We,there fore, recommend that the Constitution be so amended as to lay the same prohibition upon the Legislature of each State, and to forbid the appropriation of public funds to the sup port of sectarian schools. We reaffirm the belief avowed in 1876 that the duties levied for the purpose of revenue should so discriminate as to favor American labor that no further grants of the public domain should be made to any railway or other corporation that slavery having per ished in the States, its twin barbarity, polyga my, must die in the Territories that every where the protection accorded to a citizen of American birth must be secured to citizens by American adoption. That we deem it the du ty of Congress to develope and Improve our sea-coast and harbors, but insist that further subsidies to private persons or corporations must cease that the obligations of the Repub li# to the men who preserved its integrity in the day of battle are undiminished by the iapse of fifteen years since their final victory. To do them honor is and shall forever be the grateful privilege and sacred duty of the American people. the authority to regulate lm migration and intercourse between the Uni ted States and foreign nations rests with the Congress of the United States and the treaty making power, the Republican party, regard ing the unrestricted immigration of Chinese as a matter of grave concernment under the exercise of both these powers, would limit and restrict that immigration by the enactment of such just, humane and reasonable laws and treaties as will produce that result. the purity and patriotism which characterizes the earlier career of Ruth erford B. Hayes in peace and war. and which guided thoughts of our immediate predeces sors to him for a Presidential candidate, have continued to inspire him in his career as Chief Executive and that history will accord t» his administration the honors which are due to an efficient, just and courteous discharge of the public business, and will hosor his vetoes in. terposed between the people and attempted partisan laws. Eighth—We charge upon the Democratic party the habitual sacrifice of patriotism aud justice to a supreme and intatiable lust for of fice and patronage that to obtain possession of the National Government and the control of place, they have obstructed all efforts to romote the purity and to conserve the free of the suffrage and have devised fraudu lent ballots, and invented fraudulent certifica tion of returns have labored to unseat law fully elected members of Congress to secure at all hazards the vote of a majority of States in the House of Representatives have en deavored to occupy by fores and fraud the places of trust given to others by the people of Maine, rescued by the courage and action of Maine's patriotic sons have, by meth ods vicious in principle and tyrannieal in practice attached partisan legislation to appropriation bills upon whose passage the very movement of the Government de pended have crushed the rights of the indi vidual have advocated the principals and souk'b' the favor of the Rebellion against the Nation, and have endeavored to obliterate the sacred memories and to overcome the ines timably valuable results or Nationality, per sonal freedom and individual equnlity. The equal, and steady, and complete en forcement of the laws, and the protection ol all our citizens in the enjoyment of privileges and immunity guaranteed by the Constitu tion. are the ant duties of the Nation. The dangers of a "Solid South" can only be averted'by a faithful performance of every promise which the Nation has made to the citizen. The execution of the laws, and the punishment of all those who violate them, are the only safe methods by which au enduring peace can be secured and genuine prosperity established throughout the South. Whatever promises the Nation makes the Nation must perform. A Nation cannot with safety rele-" gate this duty to the States. The "Solid South" must be divided by the peaceful agencies of the ballot, and all honest opinions must there find free expression. To this end the honest voter must be protected against terrorism, violence or fraud. And we affirm it to be the duty and the pur pose of the Republican party to use all legitl mate means to restore all the States of this Union to the most perfect harmony which may be possible, and we submit to the practi cal peoplfcof these United States, to «ay whpth- it would uot beduntjeious lo the dearest In rest of our country at this liiue to surrender e administration of the National Govern, utent to a party which seeks to overthrow the existing pqlfcy under which we see so pros perous, and thus bring distrust and conrusion "here there is now order, confidence, and "pe.

He offered s reso lution, whien, alter a long and spirited de bate was amended and adopted as follows "The Republican party, adhering to the principles affirmed by its last Natioual Con vention, of respect for the constitutional rules covering appointments to office, adopt the declaration of President Hayes, that the re- r"-in of i he civil service should be thorough, •"•al and complete. To this end it demands cooperation of the legislative with the Ex ecutive department of the Government, and that Congress should so legislate that fitness, ascertained by proper practical test*, shall ad mit to the public service. for rad the The question recurring on the entirq. plat form as amended, It was adopted with cheers, and the convention took a recess till 7 o'clock Upon reassembling a National committee was appointed, and the roll of States called for the presentation of candidates for nomination President by the convention.

TStere are curious, but well-authenti cated, anecdotes showing what fascina tions chess possesses for some minds. We have heard of one of her Majesty's ships being nearly run ashore through the Captain, absorbed in his combina tions, not heeding the repeated repre sentations of Irs Lieutenant that they were getting uncommonly near the land. There was once a Caliph of Bagdad who would not be disturbed in his game, though the city was being carried by assault. And Charles XXL., of Sweden, when hardly beset by the Turks in his house at Bender, was at least as much interested in beating his antagonist across the board as in beating off the Turks. Again, an Elector of Saxony, taken prisoner at the battle of Mulil berg by the Emperor Charles V., was playing chess with a fellow-prisoner when tidings were brought to him that he had been sentenced to death. He looked up for a moment to remark on the irregularity of the proceeding, and then resumed the game, which to his great delight he won. When we add that Frederick the Great and Marshal Saate were enthusiasts for the game, who will say it is not a pastime in which it is worth while to excel Though many persons are debarred by other occupations from de voting to it sufficient attention, those who nave the leisure may remember the dictum of the Duke of Wellington, which is applicable to all pursuits, that "Whatever is worth doing at all is worth doing well."—Saturday Review. 10 20 Total number votes cast, 756.

St. Paul Daily Globe, Jane 11, The Crop*. The weathftr conditions which have pre vailed here for now nearly two weeks, and have been reported at times from over a large part of Minnesota and the adjacent States and territory, are beginning to create Bomo uneasiness in business oirole s most de pendent upon good crops. Bat, after care ful inquiry yegtefdajr as to, weather fiul orop indications in all direotions the Gross is satisfied that there )s as yet no serious cause for uneasiness. The storms, though of freqaent ooenrrenoe, have been generally local, and thongh in some limited districts the orops have been damaged, in all parts of Minnesota, north ern Wisconsin, northern Iowa, and Dakota—with few and small exceptions—the young crops are looking better than ever before at this time of year. Some wheat fields in Olmsted oounty, and others of the southeastern counties of the State, have been deluged with rain until the owners fear that their grain has been water killed. Bat not one in ten of the fields in that part of the 8tate can have been thus submerged. In the southwestern part of the State there has been a good deal of rain, and rain indica tions still prevailed yesterday, but the orop indications are generally very favorable. The same may be saifl of the lower and middle Minnesota valley. In the npper Minnesota valley and in the western border oounties it is olaimed that no more rain has fallen than was need ed and the orops are said to be growing finely. The same may be said of the upper Mississippi country and all the central part of the State. €cfnoerning the extreme northwestern part of the State and of the Bed river country in Manitoba, there were reports some time ago of overflows that threatened to damage crops. Later advices are to the effect that there have been no overflows of the cultivated lands, bnt the lowest lands of that region are submerged and the uplands are said to be very wet. Yet the wheat crop of that region is growing splendidly and keeps its brilliant color. Of Northern Dakota, near the Red rivei valley the same may be said, while west there has not been an exoessive rainfall. In short, while all over this State, and probably all over the northwest, there has been a good deal of rain, in some limited sections too much rain, and here and there narrow strips of oountry where storms or floods have dam aged orops, the general condition of crops is more than usually favorable. And it may be well to bear in mind, while the rain aad storm season lasts, that all damages will be reported, but little be said about the on in cued orops. Railroad* and Telt-qraph tinea. Except the River dfvttfon, along the hill sides and "over the ravinee of the river bank and Lake Pepin shore,"have been bnl little damagtd. The C., AL St. P. line was one night interrupted by a part |of the track, near the Chippewa, being over flowed, and trains on the St. P. S. C. and St. M. M. roads, on one or two occasions, have been delayed for prudential reasons while storms were prevailing. The other road^, we believe, havo been operated without interruption or delay. Tho legraph lines have been frequently interrupted, and daring last week were pro vokingly inefficient. Bail Storm at Sioux Otty, About 3 o'clock yesterday morniug a ter rible hail storm occurred at Sioux City, by which, it is reported, all the glass was broken in the west and north sides of every house in ihe city. The glass was also all broken nit from the west sides of caboose oars and passenger ooaohes standing on the railway racks. As the windows of the cars are made if strong plate glass in comparatively small sheets, the foroe of the storm and size of the iail stones may be imagined as terrific, and justifying expectations of bearing of greater disasters than glass breaking, although the storm is understood to have been confined to Sioux City aud its neighborhood. The size of the hail stones may be judged from a report sent in by an operator at La Mars to the effect that the conductor of the morning train out from Sioux City, as his train was about leaving, three hours after the storm, soooped up a bucket full of hail in chunks which averaged as large as hen's eggs. The shade trees in Sioux City were denuded of leaves and it is feared taat all frnit in the track of the storm was destroyed. The hail came with torrents of rain, which flooded the streets and tore up wooden sidewalks. Further particulars were not obtainable on aooount of the telegraph lines in that direc tion being almost constantly interrupted by loeel storma. Along th* SUntx City Road. Looal storms have occurred nearly every hoar of the last forty-eight at one station or another on the St. Paul Sioux City road, bnt no damaging storm was reported. At 4 p. u. yesterday the following weather re ports were sent in by the company1! opeca" tors at the stations named: Le Sueur— Cloudy and rainy.

JNNrMfMM Zmmd Another big rain ooourred along the Mis sissippi Wednesday night and five land slides blocked the railway between Etter and Minneiska. A oonsidera ble wash-out also oeenrred below Wirona and another near Waoonta. The Chicago passenger train due here at 6 A. M. yesterday morning was stopped at Lake City while the traok before it was be ing repaired, and did not arrive here until nearly 4 p. u. The train due at 1:25 was held at LaCrosse for several hours, but probably arrived here last night. The train out from St. Paul at 8:05 Wednesday even ing did not reach Winona until 10 A. M. yesterday, and was stopped by the wash out below that oity, but probably went on by the North W'soonsin cat-off to La Crosse. The train sent out yesterday noon went East by way of Hastings and the I fc M. division. Eastern mails were sent out last night by 0., St. P.

Bain had been falling more or less from Wednesday and considerable wind prevailed. A few minutes before 9 o'clock that morn inga light shower set in with a stiff breeze from the south, when suddenly the wind swung into the eoutnwest and tarned into a wild, sweeping tornado of wind and water. Buildings rock6d on their foundations, and the hearts of the occupants sickened with fear. Mothers clasped their children, in their arms and with white lips prayed for, the storm to abate. In the short space ef' one-half an hour, hundreds of dollars worth of property were destroyed. The greatest sufferer, a poor seetion hand named Martin Stroui Peterson. Hia house, a two-story frame, Was blown some thirty feet and turned bottom side up, being almost entirely demolished. Mrs. Peterson, her children, and the wife of Erling Patterson, neighbor who was visiting with a couple of children, were in the house at the time. Mrs. Peterson says that Bht. was holding by the stove when the gale struck, and when found she still had hold of it, though uninjured, some thirty feet from the building, and the only pieoe of furniture that had been thrown in that direotion. Tb» other woman and six ohildren had been: spilled into the cellar and were all more or less hurt, but fortunately none woti killed. Mrs.|i£rling Patterson bad her right Bhoulde^ severely hurt, which with the nervous shock has completely prostrated her. The family had scrambled out of the cellar here huddled down near the stove, when Mr. Stedmac. went to their assistance, and with the excep tion of an eight year old boy, who could nott be found, were taken to his house. I lien a^ searoh was instituted for the missing boy, whom it was feared had perished in the wreck of the house, but he was found after a short search in Billy Seegar's stable un-' hnrt, with the exception of a black eye. Death of Prince Albert. The Queen had retired for a little to the adjoining room, but, hearing the Prince's breathing become worse, she returned to the sick-chamber. She found the Prince bathed in perspira tion, which the doctors said might be an effort of nature to throw off the fever. Sending over him she whispered: "Es ist kleiner frauchen J" 'Tis your own little wife and he bowed his head and kissed her. At tuie time ha sflpmpd half dozing, quite calm, and only wishing to be left quiet and undisturbed, as he used to be when tired and not well." Again, as the evening advanced, her Majesty retired to give way to her grief in the adjoining room. She had not long been gone when a rapid change set in, and the Princess Alice was requested by Sir James Clarke to ask her Majesty to return. The import of the summons was too plain. When the Queen en tered she took the Prince's left hand, "which was already cold, though the breathing was quite gentle," and knelt down by his side. On the other side of the bed was the Princess Alice, while at its foot knelt the Prince of Wales and the Princess Helena. Not far fromi the foot of the bed were Price Ernest Leiningen, the physicians, and the Prince's valet, Lohlein. General tho Hon. Robert Bruce knelt opposite to the Queen, and the Dean of Windsor, Sir Charles Phipps, and Gen. Grey were also in the room, In the solemn hush of that mournful chamber there waa such grief as has rarely hallowed any death-bed. A great light, which had blessed the world, and which the mourn ers had but yesterday hoped might long bless it, was waning fast away. A husband, a father, a friend, a master en deared by every quality by which man in such relations can win the love of hk t'ellow-man, was passing into the Silent Land, and his loving glance, his wise counsels, his firm, manly thought should be known among them no more. The castle clock chimed the third quarter after 10. Calm and peaceful grew the beloved form the features settled into the beauty of a perfectly-serene repose two or three long but gentle breaths were drawn, and the great soul had fled, to seek a nobler scope for its aspirations in the world within the veil, for which it had often yearned, where there is rest for the weary, and where the spirits of the just are made perfect"—"Lift of the Prince ConsortT. Martin, Doomed to Silence. The germ of a novel is contained in ttevents that occurred in a Russian towns Twenty years ago, a church organisa stole the priest's pistol, shot and robbed a farmer, replaced the weapon in the sacristy, confessed the crime to the priest, whose lips were thus sealed upon the subject, and then denounced him as the robber and assassin. The unfortu nate ecclesiast ic, vainly protested his in nocence, was sentenced to hard labor for life. The organist on his death-bed con fessed this crime, but when steps were taken to secure the liberation of the in nocent sufferer it was found that he had been dead for several months.

When Dickens was a law reporter abont the courts he fell in love with a pretty, thoughtless little thing, and wanted her to be his wife but the suit was thwarted, and a half-healed scar waa all that was left of the old and painful wound. Perhaps it would have been better for Charles Dickens if she had married him. Many years after he wrote of this marked episode of his life: "Just as I can never open that book as I open any other book, I can not see the face, even at four-and forty, or hear the voice, without going wandering away over the ashes of al that youth and hope in the wildest mam. ner."

The side and cross walks in various parts of the town arc being extended, im proved and repaired. Pacific, Atlantic and other streets are receiving atteution. The County Commissioners were in ses sion the first of the week, and considerable business was transacted. A statement of the proceedings ill appear iu next issue. STRANGE.—It is curious how mauy jur ors are sick and anxious to be excused, but, it was ever thus, and probably will be untill the position is made an elective office. The festival yesterday, given under the auspiccs of the ladies of the Congregation al Society was one of the most succcsfcful of the season and quite a handsome sum was realized, the receipts netting $75. Now TROT.—A notice elsewhere, calls the attention of holders of county orders, to the fact that all outstanding orders which have been presented up to date, will be paid on presentation at the Treasurer's office. FORCE OF HABIT.—Sheriff Landberg is a very good officer, and lias the name of at tending strictly to his duties, but, lor'! bless you it is only forcc of habit, for when lie sneezed audibly the other day, he jumped up and called for silence. This is the first case on record of a man calling) himself to order. GOOD ENOUGH.—That Treasurer White ley is a good and efficient officer, is attested by the fact that he has out of the entire population of village tax-payers, but four names delinquent on his books. Of this number, two are non-residents of the vil lage, aud not in range of the Treasurer's LEGAL.—The following of the legal profession, from abroad, nre in attendance at this term of court now in session.

Music.— As a fellow sits in his ottlcc and listeus, under protest, to the raspy, villian ously harsh aud soul racking warblings of a pea-cock he heaves an iuvoluutary sigh, and regretfully ponders over the days, or rather nights, when he fretfully nud vicious ly cussed and stormed at the (compara tively speaking) soft, dulcet toned trilings of tlie much booted cat, or the quiet, sooth ing humming of the festive mosquito, and thinks with a remorse filled souled, that a cat concert with a mosquito accompani ment, would be a paradise in comparison with the unearthly, wailing screech of the gorgeous p. c. JUGGED.—A rum soaked rapscullion en deavored to pick a fuss with another stranger, on our streets last Tuesday, and endeavored to give force and em phasis to his argument by drawiug and brandishing a kuife. Marshal Tewksbury stopped his noise and bluster and marched hiui to the lock up. While enroutc to the Iuuaicuce9, jail, another boozy lad endeavored to in terfere, but a sudden quietus was put upon his lawlessness by same of the bystanders, who fired him into tho cooler to give him an opportunity to rest and recuperate, and keep his pard company. They will serve five days. ACCIDENT.—News was received last week of an accident of a painful nature, which occurred to Mrs. Elizabeth Ayers, of this place, while in the vicinity of Sauk Centre. The large number of dwelling bousesi Jlrs. Ayers and her graud-daughter, Mrs. erected this season betokens a permanent! H.

Mrs Baldwin fortunately escaped with a few bruises. A WARNING.—Our old friend and fellow townsman Maj. Overton, in a thoughtless momert, ventured 8 weather prediction, to the effect that wc would have no more rain for thirty days.

The herder had better look after his cattle or they will be put in the pouud and he will have to pay for it. from jeopardizing and destroying all pres- unwarrantable recklessness. Such conduct on the part of a person of mature years would be deemed reprehensible. OUTRAGEOUS.—By some means or other, au unfortunate whiskey cripple named Nels Morris, obtains liquor, and has once or twice since the accident which crippled him for life, beeu seen on our streets under its influence. We do not know where or by what means he manages to get the liq uor, for we do rot think there is a saloon keeper in towu who wou'd sell hini it, nor I journed term. is there a man mean enough to buy it for him. Upon inquiry wc learn that thu whiskey for Tuesdays spree was obtained for him by a small boy, and we would ask the authorities to take steps to ascertain where a minor can obtain liquor. Perhaps Mr. A. C. Satters young son can give some information.

H. L. J. McCormick:— Chicago, Sept. 12. 1879. THE M'COHMICK HEATER WOKKS. The space these works occupy comprised about twenty-two acres, lying ou the north side of the eouth branch ox the Chicago River, all of which, excepting about three acres that are covered by the buildings, is used for railroad tracks, for stables, and fc* piling lumber, pig iron, and other materials. The different manufacturing building are located iu the shape of a rectangle, having frontage to the north and south of 350 feet, and to the east aud west of 460 feet, covering and inclosing a space of over three acres. Without going further iuto detail, it may be observed that the floor of the sur face of these several buildings is 301,450 square feet, or about seven acres and in the several different departments of the fac tory the tirni have kept as many as 1,000 employees at work. The season just closed has beeu a good one. and no less than 25, 000 machines have been sold. These ma chines have beeu disposed of "in all the great wheat-growing States in the Union, from seaboard to seaboard, from Texas to Manitoba. Nothing can better illustrate the popularity of the McCormick self-bind er, and at the same time show the growth of the State, than the fact that 5,492 MAC HIKES were sold during the past season in the State of Minnnesota. On McCormick^ ledger Minnesota leads the United States she is to that establishment indeed the ban uer State. Iu 1856 McCormick sold ten mar chines in that State oue agent writes that he will sell 2,000 the coming year. The firm are at preseut employing 800 hands, aud during the busy season have run the factory night and day. It might be inter sting to note, as an item of news, that the tirin have a very extensive trade with Gre The Mark Lane Express, of Aug. 12,1879,1 gives the follow iug very interesting and ably] written account of the McCormick Binder: 'It cuts a breadtli of five feet, the cutl grain falling upon a horizontal platform of endless web canvas, or, as the Americans call it, 'duckiug' carrying ribs of wood. This carries the grain toward the rear side, where it passes upward at an acute angle almost perpendicularly, between endless webs, to a height of nearly five feet, thus rising over the main wheel, framing and driving gear: and the stuff, delivered in a| continuous stream, falls over upon a hor izontal table: a binding arm, placed aboutl midway along the side of the table, advan-| ces toward the falling grain, strikes down ward through it, separating a portiou for al sheaf, and at the same time carrying down[ the upper ply of wire beueath, aud thus en compass the sheaf. The arm then Retreats,! drawing the girded sheaf toward the side, and in the course of this movement the wires are cut off and twisted together by a rapidly rotating pinion below, named the whirl. The sheaf remains upon the tablel unt'l the next sheaf pushes it off, with a de liberate, quiet motion. Nothing can ex ceed the smoothness and unerring perfec tion of this arrangement for binding. The sheaves are dropped with the greatest! regularity, lying in line, longitudinally, or In the direction of the machine's course, with the butt ends foremost, and they arel some feet clear of the horse track. The wire band is joined by a twist in two| plades on opposite sides of the sheaf, leav ing the twisted ends sticking out for aboutl a couple of inches. The special merit of the work was in its perfect collection of all the wheat, scarcely an car being dropped. thus absolutely the whole of the crop is I bound in the sheaves, leaving nothing atl all to be raked up, and perhaps not more[ than a handful per acre for gleaners.

Mr. McCormick in the World's Fair atl Loudon, iu 1851, made an impression which has not beeu erased, which gave Europe an idea of the chareracteristic quality—origi nality—of our inventors. From that date to thu Paris Exposition, of 1878, he has tak eu the first prize at every one of the world's fairs. It lias been shown above that to Mr. McCormick was awarded at the recent Par-1 is Exposition the highest honors ever given au inventor, and in the recent severe trial for the golden medal of the Royal Agricul tural Society of Englaud, as usual, the Mc Cormick machine came out ahead and was awarded the gold medal for it fulfilled the| conditions laid down.

mmsmsmmmrn THE CHICAGO CONVENTION. Jo\t'a PrrMWat**•/• uf Wain*. Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of thiOanTes ttoni I ihall never ww to regret that eircom ituou httt been Mich to impoae the duty upon myself to make a nomination of candi date to this oouvention. 1 havo btvu abaent from tb«* country for the pa^t two month*, and arrived hvnn* but just before this convention. Hinoe the i nvention has been in newsum I bave b«Mn employed upon the floor all the time. If, therefore, words or inuaie are important for the i-andidate who shall bo proposed, they will briietit him bnt little. I will, however, briiis iiim before the oouven tion iu aa brief a manner as possible. That it will be very brief will, I presume, aatiafy the eoaveotiou and the audience, beoauao we are now all iiupaiieut for voting. It was in I860. 1 thiuk. that a then young man, born in the old Key*tone State, bat a reaident in the State of Maine, entered the Honse of Repivseutstives. It was at a tioic when the nky wu lowering, when the horison was filled with clouds, indicating a tempest. It was just before the war. The oloods aud the tempest burst on the country and the war ensued whioh waged for fonr long years. Fortunately for ns there wan a', the helm of theship of State, the ri«ht rusn.ami it was manned with the right ortw. After whirlwinds of war bad ragad for four years the elements of strength of the con testing parlies save way and peace at length aattled down on the country. Then ensued the contest for reconstruction, and it occupied nearlv three or four years more. During all of that time that young man was always true, always brave, always eloquent, applied his tal ante in all debates and in all procedures whioh were necessary to carry on the vrar or to bring about reconstruction upon its proper basis. •When reconstruction had been secured and dur ing the period of those controvereia kin reputa tion had been emerging, grovning, towering, nn tilat l»t when inlSt fi, recountrmturn had been praotic^Mr secured, his reputation was towering before the country and his name was one of the great names of the country, that had become spread abroad all over the laud. It bad be come a household name. It was familiar in every ooruer. It was looked up to from every •art of the country. The name was the Hon Sas. Blaine, the Senator from Maine. (Great outburst of enthusiasm.) When the stormy period of Andrew Johnson's administration hail passed away, or K.jI wm passing •way, and nomination of General Grant was made to the country for the Presidency of the United States, all eyes in the northern section of the country tnrned to the Hon. J. Q. Blaine. Be was called upon to canvass the oountry. He canvassed the country from Maine to Mississippi, and beyond. He msde himeelf familiar with the great North and the great West. T!ie people became familiar with him in the North and in the great Weet He about him that wonderful power of attract ing, which half a century ago was possessed in most eminent a degree, also by another great man of this oountry. the great son of the great State of Kentucky. Heury Clay. On the second nomination of Gen. Grant in 107*2 he was called upon in the same way, and traversed th* country, exercising his power, his ability aud his eloquence for the cause of his country, over the same extent of this northern territory. He had become so well known, tbe people of the country had becom so well acquainted with him, he had fastened them to him b) attractions so great, that iu the oonventio'u which was held at Omoiuuati four years a^o, he had become tbe leading oaudidate of the Northern people for the Presidency of the Cnited States. He was the favorite oandidate of the State which I repre sent in this convention. Its delegates went to that convention with a view of urging and securing, if it were possible, his nomination. He came within a few vote* uf success, when for some reason his column broke, aud the re.-mlt was auoth-r nomination, which had been before the country You a'l know the disappointment.jyon all know perh&po the astonishment which was cceated iu some sections of tne countr at tbe result. By the State which I have the -uor t« represent upon this floor, it was cor.- uered t'.uioet a cal amity to the- individual i tmber- v* the Re publican party of that State. They folt it as a r*ersjnal olo*. But wh aa might have been diuapointed reasonably iu tbe the results, when the canvass came, and when the tight was a close one, v'i when it «u doubtful whether the Repui-.tr. ns would saoceed in ele?iing their Candida e, although he had been repudiated at the convention, he backied on his harness and he :.ter(l the neks. Ho traversed the count\. he fought man tally, gloriously, vigorously, uuultlie bat tle was won (applause) though by a -mall ma jority. The result was he endeared himself tenfold mute to the working Republicans .»f this north west thaa he had ever been before, and when t.hi« convention was called the people of the State which 1 represent, and which ujd so ear nestly advocated hioi before, deteria^ued again to place him before this conventiou. Iam but executing their wishes when I do so. Now, gentl.mea I will say in regard to the Stite of Michigan it is no doubtful State. It is a State which Btands by its banner all the time (apfikuse). It will not matter h.» far the vigor aud energy which that State will put into tbe contest whether he be nominated here or not We stand by tbe flag there whoever may be tbe standard bearer. With the-e remarks, gentlemen, linger •ban intended. I have tbe hjnor to present to this convention, as the candidate for the presidential chair, for the ensuing term, to be voted for by tbe people, the name of the Hon. James G. Blai e The applause which followed, increased for sons time. Most of the delegates remained sitting for a few moments, but as tbe audience became more enthusiastic, d'-lt^.ues rose to their feet and joined in a scene that for a few moments suggested the scene of tb& night be. fare. Pixley of Colorado secluded nomination in a short address after which having obtained permission of the house boh. v. nn then stepped to the front of the platform and spoke as follows: I saw onoe a storm at sea in the night lime and one staunch old ship battling for Its life with the fury of the tempest. Darkness everywhere, the wind shrieking and howling tbrongn tbe rigging, the hage waves beating upon the sides •f that ship aud making her shiver from stem to stern. The lightnings were flapping tbe thunders were rolling, there was danger every where. 1 saw ai the helm a calm, bold, cour ageous. Immovable, commanding man. In the tempest calm, in the commotion brave, in the dismay hopeful. I saw him take that old ship and bring her into the harbor, into still waters, into safety. That man was a hero. I saw tbe goed old ship, the State of Maine fapplf nsej, within the last year fighting ber way through the same darkness, through the same peril, against the same waves, against tbe same dan gers. She w'8 freighted with all that is prec ious in the principle, of onr Republic, with the rights of American citiienship, with all that is guaranteed to the American oitizen by our constitution. The eyes of the whole nation were upon her and intense anxiety filled every American heart {lest tbe grand old ship, the State of Maine, might go down beneath the waves carrying tbe preoions freight with her.

Wm, Windom, of Minnesota, (great appHuse.) We believe that the candidate Which we present will better unite all the dis widar.t elements of the party than any of the distinguished names that will be be fore thin convention. Wm.

The tt"publio*n party, with its standard in his bauds, is stroiiger now than in 1808, or 137*2. Never defeated iu war or in peace his name is the most illustrious borne by living man. His services attest his great ness and fetie oountry knows them by heart. His fame was boru not alone of things writteu and said, but of the arduous greatness of thiugs done, and dangers and emergencies will search in vain tbe future, as they have searched in vain in the past, for any other on whom the aation leans with suoh con ndouce and trust. Standing in the highest eminence of human distinction, and having tilled all lands with his renown, modest, firm, simple and self poised, he has seen not only tbe titled, bnt the poor and the lowly iu the utterui. st ends of the earth tise and uncover before him. He has studied the needs and defects of many systems of government, and he coiues back a better American than ever, with a wealth ot kuowted^e and experience added to the bard common sense which so conspicuously distinguished him in *11 the tierce light tbat beat upon him throughout the most eventful, living and perilous sixteenyeart|f Lhe nation's history. Never having had a policy to euforoe against the will ot tbe people, he never betraved a cause or a friend, aud tbe people will never be tray or desert him. Villi tied and reviled, ruth lessly aspersed by numberless presses, not iu other lauds, but in bis own, assaults upon him have strengthened and seasoned his hold on the pub lic heart. The ammunition of oalumny has all been exploded. The powder has all been burued once. Its forcu is spent, and Graut's nsrae will glitter as u bright and imperishabl &tar in the diadem of the republio, when those who have tried to tarnish it have moldered in forgotten graves, and their memories and epitaphs bave vanished utterly. Never elated by success, never depressed by adversity, he has ever, in peaoe as in war, shown the very germs of commou sense. The terms he pre scribed for Lee's surrender foreshadowed the wisest principle, and prophesies of true re construction. Victor in tbe greatest of modern wars, be quickly signalized his aversion to war and his love ot peicc by an obliteration of internation al disputes which stands as the wisest and most niaje«tic example of its kind in the world'i diplomacy. Inflation, at the height of its pop ularity aud freusy. had swept both houses of Congress, it was the veto of Grant which single and alone overthrew expansion and cleared tbe way for specie resumption. To him, immeasur ably more than to any other man, is due the fact that every paper dollar is aa good as gold With him as our leader we shall have uo de fensive campaign, no apologies or explanations to make. The shafts and arrows have all been aimed at bim, and they lie broken and harm less at his feet. Life, libertv and prosperity will find safeguards In him. When he' saiCt of the blackmen in Florida, "wherever I am they may come also," he meant that. Had ho power to help it tbe poor dwellers in the cab ins of the South should not be driven in terror from th% homes of tbe bloohounds and the graves of their murdered dead. When he re fused to receive Dennis Kearny in Co.iforuia, he meant that lawlessness and oommunism, al though it should dictate less to a whole city everywhere, would meet a foeiu him, and that popular or unpopular, he will hew to the line of right, let tbe chips fail where they may. His integrity, his common sense, his oourage and bi un quailed experience, are the quali ties offered xo his country. The only argu ment against accepting them would amaze Solomon. He thonght there could be "nothinir new under the sun." Havinr tried Grant twice, and having found him faithful, we are told we must not, even after an interval of years, trust him again. What stultification does not such a fallacy involve? lhe American people exclude Jefferson Davis from pnblio trust. Why? Because he wa® the arch traitor, and would be destroyed, and now the same people are asked to ostracise Grant and ast trust him. Why? Because he was the arch preserver of bis country because, not on ly in war, but afterwards, twice as civil magis trate, be gave bis highest, noblest eSorti to the public. Is rueh absurdity an electioneering juggle or hypocritical masquerade. There is no article of human activity, responsibility or reason, in which rational beings object to agent who has been weighed in tbe balance and found wanting, and because he has unequaled experience, making him exception ally competent and fit, from the man who shoes your horse, to the lawyer who pleads your case, the officer who manages your railway or your mill, the doctor into whose uand you give your life, the minister who seeks to save your soul, what man do you reject be cause you have tried him and by his works have known him? What makes the Presidential office an excep tion to all things ebe—common sense to be applied to selecting its incumbent? Who dares to put fetters on the free choice and judgment which is the birthright of the Ameri can people? Can it be said that Grant has used cSicial place and power to perpetuate bis term He has no place and official power has not been used for him .without patronage of power, without telegraph wires running from his house to the oovention, without election contrivances [Cries of oh, oh, and laughter], without effort on bis part his name is on his country's lips and he is struck at by the whole Democratis party because his noination will be the death to Democratic success. He is struck at by others who find offense and disqualifica tion in the very services be has rendered, in the very experience he has gained. Show me a bet ter man, name one and I am answered. But do not point as a disqualification to the very facts which makes this man fit beyond all others. Let not experience disqualify or excellence inpeach him. There is no third term in the case, and the pretence will die with the political dog days which gendered it. Nobody is really worried about a third term exoept those hopelessly longing for a first term and the dupes they have made. whioh flie deinou of slavery has aever dared to cross.

Of every Blaine man and every anti Blaine man. The vote of every follower uf every candidate is needed to make our suo oertaiu. (Applause.) Therefore, I say, gentlemen and bretheru, we are here to take calm counsel together and enquire what we shall uo? (Nominate Garfield, a voioe said,. Great applaus* We want a man whose life and opinion em body all tbe achievement of which I have •poke. We want a man wht, standing on a mon tain height see all the achievements of oar past history and carries in his heart the memory of all it8 glorious deeds and who, looking forward prepares to meet the labor and the dangers to come. We want one who will act in no spirit ot' uukindness toward those we lately met in battle. The Republican party offers to the brethren of the South the olive branch ot peace, and in vites them to renewed brotherhood on this su preme condition, that it shali be admitted for ever and forever more that iu tbe war for the Union we were right aud they were wrong. (Cheers). Oa that supreme condition we meet them as brethren and no other. We ask them to Bhar with us the blessings of the great re public (applause).

(Tremendous obeering.) When the State of Ohio was reached, Gen. Garfield arose to nominate Sherman, making the following speeoh: Mr. President: I bave witnessed the extra ordinary success of this convention with deep solicitude. Nu emotion touohes my heart more quickly than sentiment in honor of a great and noble character, but as I sat on these seats and witnessed those demon strations it seemed to me you were a hu man ocean in a tempest. I bave seen the sea lapped into fury and tossed into spray, and its grandeur moves the soul of the dullest man, but I remember that it is not tbe billows but tbe calm level of the sea from which all heights and depths axe measured, (applause.) When the storm has passed and the honr of calm settles on tbe ocean, when the sunlight bathes its smooth surface, then the astronomer and surveyor takes the level from which he measures all terrestrial heights and depths. (Applause.) Gentlemen of the convention, vonr preaent temper may not muk the healthful pulse of our people, When our enthusiasm has panned, when the emotions of this hour h&vc subsided, we shall find tbat calm level of public opinion below the storm hum which tbe thoughts uf a mighty people have to be measured at, aud by which their final action will be determined. (Applause.) Not here in this brilliant circle where fifteen thousand|men and women are assembled, is the destiny of the Republican party to be decreed.

Hear me for this cause and for a moment be silent that yon may bear (cries of good). Twenty five yeara ago this republio waa wear ing a triple chain of bond age long familiarity with traffic in the bodies and souls of men had paralyzid tbe consciances of a majority of our people. The baleful doctrine of BLate sovereignty had shocked and weakened the noblest and most beneficent powera of the national government, and the grasping pewer of slavery was seising the virgin territories of the west, and dragging them unto the den of eternal bondage. At that crisis tbe Republican party was born, and drew its first inspiration from that fire of liberty which God had lighted in every human heart, and which all the pow ers of ignorance and tyranny can never wholly extinguish, (applause.) Tbe Republican party came to delirer and save the republic. It entered the arena where the beleaguered and as-sailed territories were struggling for freedom, and drew around them a aacrcd circle of liberty through tbe war. His hand was seen in tha workmanship of those statutes tbat restored and brought back the nnity and marred calm of States. His hand was in all the great legislation tbat created the war currency, but in a still greater work that redeemed the promises of the government and made the curiency squal to gold, and when at last he passed from the halls of the legislature into a high executive office, he displayed that experi ence, intelligence, firmness and poise of character which baa carried through a stormy period of three years, with one-half the public press crying crucify him, and a hostile Congress seeking to prevent 'success. In all thin he remained unmoved. Victory crowned him. Tbe great fiscal affairs of the nation, and the great business interest of the country he has guarded and preserved, while executing the law of resumption, and effected its objeot, without a jar, and against the false proprieties of one-half of the press, and all the Democracy of this continent. (Applause.) He has shown himself able to meet with calmness the great emergency of the government. For twenty-five years be has truddeu the perilous heights of public duties, and against all the sHafts of malicc has bared his head unharmed. He has F-tood in tbe blaze of thvt fieroe light toat beats against the th-ione, but its fiercest ray has found no flaw in his honor, no stain on his shield.

James Abraham Gurtleld wa« born Novem ber 19, lNil, in tlie township of Oriuige, C'uya honst county, Ohio, about fifteen mile« from Cleveland. His futlu-r, Abraham Uaifield, came from New York, but like his mother, was of New K»Kia,)d James was the young est of lour children. The father died in 1883, leaving the familv dependent upon a small farm aud the nxertiuiia of the mother. There was nothing about the eUler Uarfleld to dia timiulBh him from the other plodding farmers of the rut her sterile township of Orange. No one could discern any qualities iu him which, transmitted to the next gcncruiiuu, uii^hl help to make a statesman, unless it was in dustry hut his wife, who is still living at au advanced age, was always foud of reading when she eould get leisure from her hard household duties, aud wus a thoroughly capa ble woman, of strong will, stern principles and more iliau average force of character. Of the children no one henile- James has made the slightest mark iu the world. The older bro ther is a fanner in Ml -bi^Mn, aud the two sis ters are, I believe, fsrwu rs' wives. James had a tough time of It when u y. He tolled hard on the farm early and late lu summer, and worked at the carpenter's bench iu win ter. The best of it was i hat he liked work. There was not s lazy ijair ou his head.

He aided these men to formulate the laws that raised our great armies and navys, and carried K-miI}- money was hard to get in those days. The Ohio canal ran not far from where he lived, aud, finding that the boatmen got their pay in cash aud earned better wages than he could make it farming or carpentry, he hired out, as a driver on the tow-path and soon got up to the dignity of holding the helm of a boat. Then he determined to ship as a t-alloron the lakes, bnt an attack of fever and ague interfered with his plans. He was 111 three months, and when he recovered he deckled to go to a school called Geauga Acad emy, in an adjoining county. Ilis mother bad saved a small eum of money, which she gave bim, together with a few cookimr uten sils aud a stock of provisions, tie hired u small room and cooked his own food to make his expenses as light as possible. He psid bis own way after that, never calling on bis mother for any more assistance. By working at the earpenUii's bench morniug and even ings and vacation times, and teaching coun try schools during the winter, he managed to attend the academy during the spring and fall terms and to save a little money towards go ing to college. He had excellent health, a robust frame and capital memory, and the aU tempt to combine mental and physical work, which has broken down many farmer boys ambitious to get an education, did not hurt him When he was twenty-three years of age he concluded he had got about all there was to be had iu the obscure cross roads academy He calculated that he had saved about half enough money to get through college, pro vided he could begin, as be hoped, with the Junior year. He got a life insurance policy and assigned it to a in-nt'.email as security for a loan to make up the amount nc lacked. In the fall of 1S54 he entered the junior class Williams College, Massachusetts, aud gradu ated iu 1856 with the metaphysical honors of his class. I have seen a daguerreotype of him taken about this time. It represents a rather awkward youth, with a shock of light hair standing rather straight up from a big forehead, and frank, thoughtful face, of a very marked German type. There is not a drop of German blood in the Garfield family, but this picture would be taken for some Frit* or Carl just over from the Fatherland. Before he went to college Garfield had con nected himself with the Disuiples, a sect hav inga numerouojmembership in Eastern and Southern Ohio, West V u-giuia and Kentucky, where its founder, Alexander Campbell, had traveled and preached. Tbe priucipal pecu liarities of the denomination are their refusal to formulate their beliefs into a creed, the in dependence of each congregation, the bospi tality and fraternal feeling of members and the lack of a regular ministry. When Gar field returned to Ohio it was natural that he should soon gravitate to the struggling little college of the younsr sect at Hiram, Portage county, near his boyhood's home. He be came professor of Latiu and Greek and threw himself with the energy and industry which are leading traits of his character into the work of building up the institution. Before he had been two years in his professorship he was appointed president of the college. Hi ram is a lonesome country village, three miles from a railroad, built upon a high hill overlooking twenty miles of cheese-making country to the southward. It contains tifty or sixty houses clustered around the green in the centre of which stands the homely red brick college structure. Plain living and thinking was the order of things at Hiram College in those days. The teachers were poor, the pupils were poor and the institution was oor, but there was a great deal of hard, faithful study done and many abitious plans formed. The young president taught, lec tured and preached, and all the time studied as diligently as any acolyte in the temple of knowledge. He frequently spoke on Sun days in the churches of the towns in the vi cinity to create an interest in the college Among the Disciples any one can preach who has a mind to, no ordination being required. From these Sunday discourses came the sto that Garfield at one time was a minister, [e never considered himself such and never had any intention of finding a career in the pulpit. His ambition, if he had any outside of the Echool, lay in the direction of law and politics. During his professorship Garfield married Miss Lucretia Rudolph, daughter of a farmer in the neighborhood, whose acquaintance he had made while at the academy, where she was also a pupul. She was a quiet, thought ful girl, of singularly sweet aud refined dispo sition, fond of study and reading, possessing a warm heart and a mind with the capacity of steady growth. The marriage was a love af fair on both sides and has been a thoroughly happy one. Much of General Garfield's sub sequent success in life may be attributed to the never-failing sympathy and intellectual companionship of his wife and the stimulus of a loving home circle. The young couple bought a neat little cottage, fronting on the college campus and began th#ir wedded life poor and in debt, but with brave hearts. In 1859 the college president war- elected to the State Senate from the counties of Portage and Summit. He did not resitrn his presiden cy, because he looked upon a few months in the Legislature as an episode not likely to change the course of his life. But the war «ame to alter all his plans. During the win ter of 1861 he was active in the passage of measures for arming the State militia, and his eloquence and energy made him a conspicu leader of the Union party. Early iu the summer of 1861 he was elected colonel of an infantry regiment (the Forty-second) raised in Northern Ohio, many of the soldiers, in which had been students at Hiram. He took the field in Eastern Kentucky, was soon put in command of a brigade, and by making one of the hardest marches ever made by recruits surprised and routed the rebel under save upon the cold, careful consideration I From Eastern Kentucky General Garfield The horse-shoe doesn't bring good luck when the horse applies it. i,iketon.forces, Hnmph MftrBhal)) [lt was transferred to Louisville and from that place hastened to join the army of General Bueli, which he reached with his brigade in time to participate in the second day's fight ing at Pittsburg Lauding. He took part in the siege of Corinth and in the operations along the Memphis and Charleston Railroad. In January, 18G3, he was appointed Chief of Staff of the Army of the Cumberland and bore a prominent share in all the campaigns in Middle Tennessee in the spring ana summer of that year. His la6t conspicuous military service was at the battle of Chickamatiga For his conduct in that battle he was pro moted to a major generalship. It is said that he wrote all the orders given to the army that day, and submitted them to General Rosccrana for approval, save one. The one he did not write was the fatal order to General Wood which was so worded as not to correctly con vey the meaning of the commanding general and which caused the destruction of the right wing of the army. The Congressional district in which Garfield lived was the one loug made famous by Joshua R. Giddings. The old anti-slavery champion grew careless of the arts of politics towards the end #f his career aud came to look upon a nomination and re-election as matter of course. His over-confidence was taken advantage of in 1858 by an ambitious lawyer named Hutching to carry a convention against him. The friends of Giddings never forgave Hutchins, and cast about for a means of defeating him. The old man himself was comfortably quarteied in his Consulate at Montreal and did not care to make a fight to get back to Congress. So his supporters made use of the popularity of GeneralGarfield and nominated him while he was in the field w thout asking lilt consent. That was 18ft4. When he heard of the nomination Gar field reflected that it would be flfteeu mouths before Congress would meet to which he would be elected, and believing, as did every one else, that the war could not possibly last a year longer, concluded to acccpt- 1 have oiten heard him express regret that he did not help fight the war through and say that he never would have left the army to so to Con gress had he forseeH that the struggle would continue beoond the year 1863. He continued his military service up to the time Congress met On entering Congress, in December, 1836 General G. Held was placed upon the com mittee on military affairs, with Schenck and Farnsworth, who were also fresh from the field. He took an active part in the debates of the House and won a recognition which few new members succeed in gaining. He was not popular among his fellow-membere during his first term. They thought him something of a pendant because he sometimes showed his scholarship in his speeches, and they were jealous of his prominence. His solid attainments and amiable social qualities enabled him to overcome this prejudice dur Uing his second term, and he became on terms J|. of close friendship with the best men of both I Houses. His committee service during his I second term was on the ways and means, I which was quite to his taste, for it gave himl an opportunity to prosecute the studies in I tluanee and political ecouomy which he bad I alwuys fell a fondness for. He wus a hard I worker and a great reader In those days, go-1 ing home with his arms full of books from the Congressional library and sitting up late I nights to read them. It was then that he I laid the foundations of the convictions on I be I subject of national fiuance Which he has sinc'al -Id to firmly amid all the storms of political I gltatlon. He was renominated in 1864, with out opposition, but in 1866, Mr. Hut chins, whom ho had supplanted, made an etlort to defeat him. Hutchlns canvassed the district thoroughly, but the convention nominated artield by acclamation. He has had no op- Kisition siuce iu his own party. In 1872 the liberals and Democrats united to beat him but his majority was larger than ever. In 1874 the Grccnbacker* and Democrats com bined and put up a popular eoldier against I him, but they made no impression on the re« suit. The Aohtabu'a district, as it is generally called, is the moat faithful to its representa tives of any in the North It has bad but four members iu half a century. In the Fortieth Congress General Garfield I was chairman of the committee on military atlairs. In the Forty-tlrst be was given tho chairmanship of banking ard turrency, hich he liked much better, because it was in the line of his financial studies. His next I promotion was to the chairmanship of the appropriations committee, which he held un til the Democrats came into power in the Hou^e in 1876. His chief woik ou that com mittee was a steady and judicious reduction of the expenses of 'ho government. In ail the political struggles iu Congress he has borue a leading part, his clear, vigorous and moderate style of argument making him one of the most effective debaters in either House. When James G. Blaine weut to the 8cii".te, iu 1877, tins mantle of Republican leadership in the House was by eommon consent placed upon Garfield, and he has worn it ever since. In January last General Garfield was elected to the Senate to the seat which will be va-1 cated by Allen G. Thui man on the 4th of March, 1881. He received the unanimous vote of the Republican caucus, an honor never t-'iven to any man of any party in the State, of Ohio. Since his election be haa been the recipient of many complimentary manKesta tiona in Washington aud in Ohio. OAKFIKLD AS A IJEADKB. As a leader iu the House be is more eantlout 1 and less danbiug than Blaine, and bis Judical I turn of mind makes him too prone to look ior| two aides of a question for him to be an etti cien: partisan. When the issue fairly touchesI his convictions, however, he becomes thorough-1 ly aroused and strikes tremendous blows. laine's tactics were to oontinu&lly harrasal the enemy by sharp-shooting surprises and picket firing. Garfield waits for an oppor tunity to deliver a pitched battle, and his generalship is sbswn to best advantage when the fight is a fair one and waged on grounda where each party thinks itself strongest. Then bis solid shot of argument are exceedingly effective. Ou the stump Gaifield is one of the very best orators in the Republican party. He has a good voioe, an air of evident sincerity, great clearness and vit or of statement aud way of knitting his arguments together so i to make a speech deepen its impression on thel mind of the hearer until the climax is reached. I Of his industry and stndions habits a great I deal might be said, but a single illustration! will have to sufiice here. Once during the busiest part of a very bnsy session at Washing-1 ton, I found bim in his library, behind a bii barricade of books. This was no unusual sight, but wheu I glanced at the volumes I that tbey were all different editions of Horace, or books relating to that poet. "I find I overworked and need recreation," aaid the gen-l eral. "Now my theory ia tbat the beat way to rest the mind is not to let it be I idle, but to put it at something quite outside I of the ordinary line of its employment. So 11 am resting by learning all the Congressional I library can show about Horace and the vaiioas| editions and translations of his poems." GARFIELD AT HONK. General Garfield is the possessor of two| houses, and his family migrates twice a year. Some ten years ago, finding how unsatisfactory I life was in hotels and boarding houses, he I bought a lot of ground on the oorner of Thir-| teenth and I streets, in Washington, and with I money borrowed of a friend built a plain, sab-1 ptantial three-story house. A wing was ex-1 tended afterwards to make room for the faatl growing library. The money was repaid time, and was probably saved in great part I from what would otherwise bave gone to land-1 lords. The children grew up in pleasant home surroundings, and the bouse became a centre! of much simple and cordial hospitality. Five] or six years ago, the little cottage at Hiram was sold, and for a time the only I residence the Garfields had in°| bis district wis a summer honse he built on Little Mountain, a bold elevation I in Lake county, which commands a view of thirty miles of rich farming country stretched I along the shore of Lake Erie. Three years ago he bought a farm in Mentor, in the same county, lying on both sides of the Lake Shore Michigan Southern railroad. Here his fam ily spend all tbe time when he is free from hia duties in Washington. The farm house low, old fashioned, story and a half building but its limited accomodations have been sup-1 plemented by numerous out buildings, one of I which General Garfield uses for effice and lib rary purposes. The farm contains about one hundred and twenty acres of excellant land, in a high state of cultivation, and the Congre man finds a recreation, of which he never tirea, I in direotiug the field work and making im provements in tbe bnildinga, fenoea and orcharda. Cleveland ia only twenty-five miles away there Is a post office and a railway station within half mile, and the pretty country town of Paines rille is but five miles distant. One of the pleaa-1 ures ot summer life on the Garfield farm is drive of two miles through the woods to tbe lake shore and a bath the breakers. General Garfield has five children living, and I has lost two, who died in infancy. The two old- I er boys, Harry and James, are now at school in I New Hampshire. Mary, or Molly, as everybody ealls her, is a handsome, rosy-cheeked girl of I about 12. The two younger boys are named Irwin and Abram. The General's mother still living and haa long been a member of his I family. Sha ia an intellgent and energetic old lady, with a dear head and a strong will, and keeps well posted in the new* of tbe day and is very proud of her son's career, though more liberal of criticism than of praise. General Garfield's district lies in the extreme I northeastern corner of Ohio, and now embraoea the oounties of Ashtabula, Trumbull, Geauga, Lake and Mahoning. His old home eouaty of I Portage was detached from it a year ago. With the exception of the coal and iron regions in the extreme southern part, the district is purely a rnral one, aud is inhabited by a population I of pure New England ancestry. It is claimed that there is less illitt racy in proportion to the population than in any other district in the Dnited States. In person General Garfield is six feet high, I broad-shoul lered and strongly built. He haa an unusually large bead, that seems to be three-fourths forehead, light brown hair and I beard, large, light blue eyes, a prominent nose and full oheek«. He dx. sses plainly, is fond of broad-brimmed slouch hats aud stout boots, eats heartily, cares nothing for lnxurions liv- I ing, is thoroughly temperate in all respects save in that of brain work, and is devoted to bis wife and ohildren and very fond of hia country home. Among men he is genial, ap proachable, companionable and a remarkably entertaining talker.
