HIGH AD IM W IKEIOHTK.
Tlie matter of high freighU has been
ami is very lorcibly pressed upon the
Bttentioti of the producing classes ot
the Pacific coast. Tlie whole qm
tlon of freigliU has two aides to it
both of tliem disastrous to tlie material
ititf rests of our whole country. In tlie
flrt place tliew was a scarcity of
tonnage lor moving the grain surplus
of tlie coast. This Induced competi
tion in bids for diarters till the price
was run up to 5 per ton tor freight to
any port ol the United Kingdom. Such
an unumal and extravagant figure, of
course, attracted the attention of ship
owners everwhere. The price was al
most equal to the old freight rates
for a round trip Ironi England to the
Pacific coast and back. Then begau
a general scramble among ship mas
ters for IreighU out. Considering the
tempting offers made here for grain
charters, vessels could afford to load
out here at much less than tlie usual
rates. Masters liegan to bid down,
just as grain shipper on this coast
were bidding up. Importers saw
their opportunity ami comuienced at
once a speculation in freights, tlie
parallel of w hich has not lieen seen
licre since tlie wild days of '49-'51.
Iinuieii.se stocks were bought, largely
ou time, and put on ship board, at al
most nominal freights, the ship-master
calculating, ot course, to make him
self more than whole, ou his grain
cargo hotue. This is still actively go
lug on.
It will require but a slight examina
tion of this matter to see how it cuts
ruinously both ways upon tlie produ
cers ot tills coast. Tlie money market
Is screwed down to the tightest pos
sible point by tlie importing speculator
In scraping ttget her funds for his pur
chases. This forces larger sales of
grain at lower prices tlian would
otherwise take place, w hich plays
again into the speculator's hand, for
he is interested in freights both ways.
While lie drains the country of
gold, lie drains it also of what
makes gold, at ruinously low
figure. In return for this he
only fills tlie warehouses of the.
country with immense stocks of goods
stocks that cannot by any possibility
be sold w itliiii this harvest y.ur. Next
yeirr will find the country in about this
condition : In its aggregate capacity
it will be deeply in debt tlie import
ers to English houses ; middle men to
the importers and the producers to the
middle men. The supply of goods
still on hand will be such that there
will be neither desire nor ability to buy
further. There will lie, in conse
quence, no freights to come this way.
Tlie result will be that, if our next
crop is to be shipped, it must pay
freight enough to satisfy tlie ship own
er for the rotuid trip. This Is the con
dition to which importers, speculators
and bankers are bringing this country.
Farmers will soon see the need of as
sociated action, for self defence.
THE ELEtTIOS.
Returns are very meagre, owing to
the late hour at which tlie canvass
of votes closed, last evening. We
know enough of this couuty to say
that the vote is a very light one and
that tlie majority for Grant and Wil
son will be considerably greater than
that cast for Wilson, last June. Wc
think it will exceed five hundred
and it may reach six hundred.
Salem precinct gives the Grant
electors 485 ; GreeleM7 ; O'Conor 6 ;
Grant's plurality 28. Last June.
Wilson's vote was 260; Burnett's
120; Wilson's majority 140. I lie to
tal vote yesterday was 608 ; last June
it was 3s, for Congressman. This
precinct, therefore, shows a largely
increased vote ; but the adjoining pre
cincts exhibit a great falling off.
South Salem gives tlie Grant elec
tors 47 ; Greeley 28 ; Grant's majority
19; total vote 75. Last June this
precinct gave Wilson 93 ; Burnett 79 ;
Wilson's majority 14 ; total for Con
gressman 172.
East Salem gives the Grant elec
tors 3 ; Greeley 17 ; Grant's majori
ty IS ; total vote 52. Last June it
gave Wilson 152; Burnett 128; Wil
son's majority 24 ; total vote 280.
North Salem gives Grant 51 ; Gree
ley 61 ; O'Conor 1 ; Grot-ley's plurali
ty 10 ; total vote 113. Last June Ue
vote was Wilson 59 ; Burnett 89 ; Bur
nett's majority 30 ; total vote 148.
In these four precints, the tailing off
U 43 .votes. Wilson's majority in
them was 148. Grant's Is now 305.
We hear by telegram from Gervais
that, tliat precinct gave 71 majority
for Grant. We doubt the correctness
of this, as the precinct gave Wilson,
last June, only 3.
The dispatches from elsewhere, in
dicate a light vote ultno-t everywhere,
with large Republican gains over tlie
last State election. Every place heard
trom, except Oregon City shows a Re
publican gain, the aggregate already
being several hundred. The indica
tions are that tlie State has gone for
Grant by a majority of not less than
fifteen hundred.
It Is said, now, that the Ladles' Mt.
Vernon Association have determined
to scour up the estate ot Washington,
wash it with soap, make a new "La
fayette's Room," and lay out the
grounds ia accordance with the latest
and most approved Ideas of landscape
grdeuin, with all modern improve
ments, including, of course, "hot and
cold water." How much, then, will
it be the old Mt. Vernon that Wash
ington and Lafayette looked upon?
And how much of veneration will it
excite iu the mind of the visitor f Tlie
American people ought to rise up In
their wrathful majesty, and prevent
the contemplated desecration.
A great many of the newspapers
and politicians are glorifying about the
decision of tlie San Juau Boundary
question, and felicitating themselves
that John Bull, however much he may
dislike the decision has no appeal.
These people have evidently over
looked the fact that Gov. G rover has
the veto power nuder our Constitution.
AKorr kve.
We heard a leading Democrat say
yesterday, that the Democratic party
had been fighting Horace Greeley for
thirty fears, aud that this election wag
the first chance they bad ever liad to
get even with him." We think they
are about even, they have killed him
politically and he has killed tlie Dem
ocratic party.

EULAn AMI AHKBICA.
The relationship existing between
tlie people of England and America
has not yet been sufficiently empha
sized in this country, and it is much
stronger in the minds of our British
cousins than in our own. TheJJcause
ot this on our side is the remembrance
and the celebration ol our revolution
ary wars with tlie mother country, the
conduct of the British Government
during the rebellion, and the mixture
of tlie Irish with our Anglo-Saxon
population, so that there is at times a
strong feeling running through this
country against, while tlie EnglMi
jieojile are actually yearning towards
America. Tlieir instincts ot relatiou
ship were admirably expressed the
other evening by the great English
historian, Fronde, at the banquet given
in liis honor at New York : "I insist
that England and America do not
stand to one another as foreign na
tions, foreign in the sense that France
or Russia Is foreign to us both." It Is
the language of the millions in Great
Britain, and not merely of the com
prehensive historian and the mote in
telligent and progressive class ot the
mothercountry. It Isemjiliatieally the
language ot tho p? ; anil they insist
upon their relationship with so much
earnestness and pathos as almost to
amount to a rebuke to the people of
America for not sulHciently manifest
ing It. Indeed we have talked of war
with Englaud in our righteous indig
nation against her Government, when
a war would have provoked the Eng
lish ieople to revolution, overthrow
ing the monarchy and torciug us into
an alliance with a British Common
wealth, as the blood relations of its
people. They will in fact yet force
this relationship upon us in some na
tional bond, of which the Washington
Treaty is but tlie forerunner and the
Atlantic Cahle the sj-mlxil. And they
will do this w hether they remain in a
monarchy or set up a republic, and the
people of America will not be able to
resist their importunities and claims
upon them, did they so desire, which
of course they would not.
'Politically separate we may lie.
but we cannot shake off our relation
ship, said Fronde, and this is not the
historian's ideal ami sentimental ex
pression, but the practical tact deeply
impressed on both the lieart and intel
lect of the English people. And it is
backed up with an argument which
has something profoumler than logic;
for it has tlie vastness of lit- two na
tions' destiny eni!xlied. '.sprung
from a common stock," runs tlie argu
ment, "with a common history, com
mon language and common laws, and
charged as we both are by Providence
with the carrying out of tliat grand
principle of ordered liberty on w hich,
as we believe, tlie amelioration of
mankind depends, we may be rivals,
but rivals only as to which of us shall
represent these principles most wisely
and effectively." The irritation of
this feeling of relationship which has
hitherto existed lietweeu the. people of
England and America became that re
lationship has not been sufficiently em
phasized, was very graphically touched
by the historian. " e may quarrel,"
lie said, "and when we quarrel it will
be with tlie peculiar bitterness which
fit j li.ivnt la r.tmtltr rTlcr,iiti I, lit tl i
" . , , . ,, . , I
very acrimony Is in itself an evidence .
of the closeness of the tie which binds I
lis, for tlie sting rises from the sup
posed absence ot tlie special good will,
which each of us conceives we have
right to look for from the otlier."
Touching tlie appreciation of this tie
between England and America, which
nature and destiny have created,
James Anthony Froude is but very lit
tle in advance ot the great bulk of his
countrymen. The masses of the Brit-i-h
jieople. and especially tlie middle
classes and the meclianic of the large
cities, have been, during the last quar
ter of a century, educated up to this
appreciation by such men as John
Bright, Henry Vilucent, Charles Brad
iaiigh, anil a hot of leaders ami agi
tators, ranging from Sir Charles Oilkes
ot the British Parliament to tlie chart
ist mechanic who has stumped his na
tive town anil the surrounding villages.
And these, with the people of Eng
land, were mostly with us, on tlie
right side, during the Rebellion. It
is tlierefore, moH gratifying that
President Grant was happily
successful with tlie Washington
Treaty, which gives special weight
to such speeches as tliat ot the British
historlon, and the prospect Is that the
re-election of Grant will result in a
closer union between England and
America.

high prerogative of the veto power, and
it is now U long tit tliat the second in

mid liifliK-nre from an Euajltaii
ttadpoliit.
By the death ot Mr. Seward the Uni
ted States have lost one who might
fairly be considered the most eminent
public man of his country. It litis been
often remarked in criticisms upon
American institutions that the men
most conspicuous for ability and elo
quence do not attain to the office of
President, which often falls to the lot
of the mediocre and obscure. A Van
Buren, a Tyler, a Polk, a Fihnore, a
Pierce have risen to the highest digni
ty of the State, which Webster and
Clay failed to reach. To the number
of eminent Americans who, after influ
encing the thought of their country and
guiding its destinies in the time of trial,
have died without receiving tlie prize
ot their legitimate ambition in election
to tlie Presidency, must be added Will
iam Henry Seward. So far as any one
man can be said to have formed the
present opinions of tlie American peo-
I'le.
Mr. Seward lias tormetl tliem. So
tar a the events and (he political
rtBlll)f4 , ,)llr tmle m.iv ascribed to
. tjH. admlni'-tratioii of a sitnrle man.
Im-V are due to his administration.
The pi e-etnitience. of course, is not like
that which a strong and energetic
statesman attains to in European com
munities. No one in America can rise
much higlier or shine much brighter
tlian his eotemporaries. That high
table-laud of intelligence does not al
low the peaks lo tower very far above
it. That general enlightenment hardly
admits of luminaries. But it may lie
said of Mr. Seward that, though in tlie
advocacy of this or that reform. Amer
icans of different parties would assert
that he has been equaled or excelled by
one public man or another who has
made It his specialty; yet. iu tlie mul
tiplicity of tlie subjects w hich engaged
his active mind. Mr. Seward gave,
above mot other Americans, proof of
an uniform philanthropy and love of
justice, made efficient by an energy
and a clearness of view almost equally
invariable. Almost every change
which marks the assage from the Uni-
ted'States of the past, as they existed
under the direction of Polk or Pierce,
to the country which has emerged
from the civil war Is associated with
Mr. Seward's name, and his friends
may claim that time has proved him
to lie right, lnith in what he commend
ed and in what he condemned. Lon

"An ex-Private" in tlie Toledo
"Blade." in giving anecdotes connect
ed with tlie rebellion, relates an inci
dent of a soldier he calls Jim that beats
Enoch Arden all to pieces. Jim was
made a cripple at the battle of Stone
River. After the war a comrade met
him sitting in front of a provision
store in Columbus. He was still a
cripple, but his face had the old quiet
ness and content, iu it. "Yes, I'm a
ilomg pretty well ; not making much.
hut doing pretty well. Have just
been up to see my wife. She mar
ried another man, vou know. No?
Didn't vou know it? Yes, she married
another fellow before I got home. Di
vorced? IXo. She just married him
and threw me overboard, you know.
It made me a little mad, I tell you.
But she married a good man, aud
there's the ruli, vou see. He's got a
farm and good house, and he took my
wife and children right iu, sir, and
trealed them like gentlemen. It cut
me a little to have tlie woman throw
me off, but I looked at the question
from her standpoint, and it's all right.
Then I got worked up a little, and
thought 1 had better steal the children
trom their step-father. So I went up
to see them again. Would you le
lleve it ? They sntd they didn't want
to live with ine, it they had to leave
their mother. So I said "all right,"
and came away again. Yoh see my
girl is smart. She knew that with my
lame leg and arm I couldn't support
her right, and the little duck told me
so with lier arms around my neck.
That finished me, you know."
"But," said his friend, "the womau
is legally your wife."
"I know it." said Jim, "but I was
stubborn and blamed her. You see
she would have to take in washing to
support the family. Legally isn't the
thing. 1 can't do anything much, and
it wouldn't be comfortable, you know,
to hava her working for me. I

About When Attacked by layue,
Uie Astuumin.
At the time that PaynQ entered the
Snuretary's chamber, after the scuffle
in the "hall-way with his son, Mr.
Frederick Seward, he was lying upon
his side, close to the edge of hi bed,
with his head renting in a frame,
which bad been made to give him
ease, and to protect his hrwken jaw
from pressure. He was trying to
keep awake, having been seized upon
by a sick man's fancy it was that if
lie slept he would wake up with the
lockjaw. He was brought to lull
consciousness by the scuIHe iu tlie
lsssge-way, followed by tlie entrance
ot the assassin and tlie cry of Miss
Seward, "Oh, he will kill my father!"
but he saw nothing of his assailant
until a hand appeared above his face,
and then his thought was "What
handsome cloth tliat overcoat is made
of." The assassin's face tlien ap
peared, aud the helpless statesman
only thought: "What a handsome
man." Then came a sensation as of
ruin striking him smartly upon one
side of his face and neck, then nuicklv
the same upon tlie other side ; but
lie lelt no severe pain. This was
Hie assassin's kuiie. Tlie blood spout
ed. He thought : "My time has
come.' and. tailing from the bed to
the floor, fainted. His first sensa.
tion ot retuniiii!! consciousness was
that he was drinking tea. aud that
it "tastefl rood. .Mrs. Sewartl wa
giving him tea with a spoon. H
heard low voices around him. asking
and replying as to whether lie would
recover. He could not speak, but
his eyes showed his consciousness anil
tlat he desired to speak. They
brought him a porcelain tablet, on
which he managed to write. "Give
me some more tea. 1 shall get
weil." And. from that moment, lie
slowly but steadily recovered bis
health and strength.
IRISH ISRAELITES.
It ha neeti remarked by persons
curious iu such things that an Irish
Israelite was about as rare as a snake
or a toad in the Emerald Island. Yet
according to Mr. .1. B. Bartnett, a
Hebrew .scholar. Ireland was in a
measure settled from Jutlea, when the
Prophet Jeremiah emigrated thither
with the remnant of the tribe of Ju
dith. The prophet savs Mr. Bartnett,
Is "no other than the celebrated Irish
reformer and lawgiver. Oleam Fodh t.
The process by which Jeremiah could
have been iiiheriilcized Into Orlearn
Pod ha must have been as mysterious be
interesting as the argument whereby
Oanbaidi became identified as an
Irish patriot named Garry O'Baldwln
Still following Mr. Bartnett, we find
that the good prophet brought with
him tlie stone, known as "Jacob's
Stone," which was kept in the sanctu
ary ot the first temple at Jerusalem,
ana anostropbized by Kine David "as
tne stone wmcn tiie builders relected.
I ransiated to Irish soli, this remark
able petrifaction became the Lia-Fail
or Stone of Destiny, In order to be
crowned upon which an Irish prince
afterward went to Scotland, and which.
removed to Westminister Abbey by
Edward III., has since been used for
the same purpose. The Dublin Free
man's Journal, however, asserts that
tlie Stone of Destiny has never left the
vicinity of Fingal's Cave, which if
true, puts a difficulty in the way of
giving implicit credence to Mr. Bart
nett s story.

her "'lectures " within the "curtains
we admit that there is room for fur

Mr. Froude gets roughly handled as
a lecturer. One New York newspaper
savs his style Is of the 'You'd-scarce-
expect-one-of-my-age' order. He starts
sentence distinctly, out oeiore ne
rounds it his voice becomes a low
whine and his brilliant thought a jum
ble." Another says : " It Is obvious
that he asks nobody to hear him for
himself, or for the stimulus or charm
growing out of any mannerism.'

"WHiting for the Evening; Train."
The following beautiful sketch was
written by the late Thurlow Weed
Brown, for the Wisconsin Chief, in
1S59:
" 'Wail iifj for the Ereninij Train
The speaker was the oldest of a crowd
ot people, moving restless about the
depot. Hi form was bowed with
years and liard toil; his hair was white
and his hand tremulous. There was
that iu his countenance and manner
which always wins confidence and re
sect, and brings up a pleasant dream
of a substantial farmhouse, a worthy
family and a life-teaching of the prin
ciples of industry, integrity and hon
or. And the old man will not wait long,
for the train is sweeping in on the
downgrade. The hours wear away.
The sun is going down, and the shad
ows are already thickening over the
track bey oi il. And there is but one
change on the route that by the deep
river which rolls between this and tlie
other shore.
More than twenty years ago he re
ceived a through ticket over the straight
and narrow w ay, whose terminus is in
the eternal city. 'Death' Is tlie migh
ty engine, aud for thousands of years
it has swept this down grade, hourly,
with loaded trains. It stops at every
station.
We are all 'waiting for the train.'
There are morning and noon trains ;
those filled with the children; with the
pleaure-seeking and sorrow-stricken.
We know not tlie time when due, but
with noiseless speed they are coming.
All aboard r has a startling thrill, and
the the gentle good night is spoken
not again, for no passenger returu-
eth."
