" The Products of a "Solid South." The greatness and prosperity of any part of our country depend upon the value of its commercial products. And the production of marketable commodi ties to any considerable extent, is only possible where peace and quietude cx ist, among all classes, and where capital and labor are mutually benefitted. It has been charged, and dwelt upon un ceasingly by those politicians that are interested in keeping alive the antag onisms and passions consequent upon the late civil war, thut the negroes of of tho South wore persecuted, deprived of political rights, dominated by the hhot gun, and made tho victim of every ether wrong for which the aforesaid politicians could lind name. They would solidify the North by misrepresenting and holding up the South as still unrepentant and rebellious . in its sentiments. When tho census re turns give them an increase of popula tion, these sanctified political leaders are thrown into convulsions ofrago and again and again send forth their stereo typed cry of fraud. I?ut thanks to cool blooded and matter of fact statis tics, theso charges are to tho thinking, dispassionate mind proved unfounded. In 1800 the cotton crop of the South amounted to 3,775,000 bales. The crop just marketed of 1879Vonsisted of over 5,000,000 bales, and brought $250,000,000, an amount equal almost to the entire product of tho wheat ex portud from tho North. This year the estimates of thu Cotton Exchange are from 0,000,000 to G.500,000 bales. MAINE ELECTION ! Have you heard the news from Maine t has been the inquiry on all sides for the past few days. Maine held her State election Monday, and from returns at hand, tho result is doubtful. But enough is known to warrant the statement that thu plural ity will he but a few hundred which ever way it may fall. We cannot claim this as a Democratic victory, but certainly it is a veritable Republican rout ' If it transpires that tho Repub licans carry tho State by a few votes plurality we shall witness the singular spectacle of Republicans shouting over a State that has heretofore been good for them by 20,000 majority. The result is to inspirit the already enthusiastic Democracy, and corres pondingly depress the Radical legions. The first gun for Hancock has been heard, and should Indiana, of the Oc tober States, fall in line, the stampede from Garfield will bo unequalled in our political history. John Sherman on tliriitr 1 Arthur. - In his opening speech of the cam paign in Ohio, at Cincinnati, recently John Sherman declared : "I have never saf3 one word im pugning Gen Arthur's honor or integ rity as a man and gentleman, but he was not in harmony with the views of the administration in the management of the Custom House." Against this shameless declaration of his own untruth and to his own con fusion, let this from John Sherman to Chester A. Arthur. Jan. 17, 1879, now be read : "Gross abuses of administration hare continued and increased during your incumbency. Persons have been regularly paid by you who have rendered little or no service; the ex penses of your office have increased, while its receipts have dimished. Bribes, or gratuities in the shape of bribes, have been received by your sub ordinates in several brandies of the Custom-house, and you have in no case supported the eflbrt to coitect theso abuses." After reading theso separate utter- ncesofJohn .Sherman in relation to tho Republican candidate for Vice resident, can any honest or intelligent fair-minded believe a word that ho ut ters!

This enormous crop, beside its sugar, rice, corn, and tobacco, is produced largely with colored . labor; and when partisans would have the people believe that colored labor to be misused and maltreated, tlioy certainly are deluding themselves by expeting such stupidity and credulity of tho public. To their cry uf '"Solid South" we can only say that we are glad sho is solid, thougli not in the senso they use' the term.
