TUB TWO POLITICAL PARTIES.
rollticians In the different states are
actively at work and the fall campaign
promises to be unusually lively and in
teresting. Our Republican fellow citl.
zens are cot in a pleasaut frame of mind
and their leaders are uncertain which
ourse to pursue, to enable them to get
through tho contest in anything lite de
cent saape. Hope of success is well
nigh dead in the most sanguinl and
nothing but the most energetio whistling
to seep tueir courage up, provests them
from throwing up the sponge at the out
set of tho struggle. Mr. Blaine who has
set himself up as the leader of the Repub
lican party, nas made a sorry mesa of It.
whtrever he has tried to get in bis fine
work and the result is a quiet.but never
weiesa wholesale desertion from the
ranks. Were the President in perfect
health or were the circumstances of his
case less lamentable, we should hear an
expression of opiniou on the merits of
the Administration as reflected in the
Secretary of Stato and his actions, that
would show conclusively the bankrupt
condition of the Republican party. For
tunately for peaoe and the security of
property, our people are conservative in
their methods, but, nevertheless when
they go about righting a wrong or elimi
nating nn evil, they ore no less deter
mined because they do it, in a peaceful,
law abiding way. Atone lime the antl
Administration men were determined to
show their political strength, by using it
to defeat their party this fall ; but now,
when they Qnd that their party is likely
to be beaten anyway, they are equally
anxious to avert tho calamity which they
begin to realize can only result disas
trously to themselves.in common with the
mon 03 whom they so earnestly desire to
wreak their vengenoo but a few brief
weeks ago. The Republican leaders have
made grievous blunders. They see them
now when too late to avoid the serious
consequence of their acts. In the mad
delerium of factional strife, they over
looked that very important faotor in the
political problem the people. Luckily
no man, nor clique, is Omnipotent in
this country, and though voters may
sometimes be supinely indifferent to the
actions of their representatives, there are
periods, when thay throw off tho lethargy
and become newly alive to their own in
tercsts and to- the importantance of
healthy and determined action in their
defence. Wo are to-day in the midst of
just Bueho period, and its beneficent in
fluence will be felt in the future. Meu
may be blindly led, but they cannot be
driven like cattle, to suit the capricious
whims of ambitions politicians. Self re
specting, intelligent Republicans; have
become filled with disgust by the machi
nations of their highest representatives
and they resent tie outrages put upon
them, by withdrawing from on' organi
sation which has unquestionably outlived
its usefulness In striking and pleasing
contrast to all this, is the attitude of the
Democratio party, It stands to-day firm,
strong and pure, animated by an unani
mous and patriotic purpose, to put none
but the best men on guard. It is a noble
and commendable impulse, which will
insure unqualified success at the polls.
It is men, not mere politicians aud wire
pullers, that Democrats desire to see in
office, oad to that end, they are nomi
nating for every offioe to be filled only
the most capable and trustworlhycitizens.
The success of the party this year will
atrengthen it for a greater violory in 1882
and thus secure for it the Presidency in
1884.
XII K CROPS,
The Daily Commercial Bulletin has
obtained from tha Department of Agri-
ciuure- toe estimated acreage, by Slates,
of tha wheat and the corn crops. It an-
pears that thti jearto-.OOS.Oufl acres were
fown with wheat, against 36.037 .Out) in
the year 1880, and that the condition of
spring whe.it on August 1st was 81,
agalust SO on July 1st. We quoto : '
"Following the ordinary method of cal
culating upon this kind of . data, these

dati to show what proportion of the whole
crop consist of either, and can, therefore,
piny 1'iiiow the data of the census of 1870,
whloli showed the spring-portion to bo 40
per cent and the winter DO percent. Assum
ing these proiiortlons, it would follow that
of last year's crop 288,500,000 bushels con
silted ofwinUr wheat aud 192,300,000 bush,

"It is to be kejit in view, however, that
this method of esllraste assumes that the
winter and spring crops of 1680 represented
an average condition. We haye followed
that assumption because that is the method
of estimate commonly adopted, it is
not, however, strictly correct. The July
condition of winter last year averaged 05,
and the AuguitconditionofspringE8. From
those ratios last year's crop, had It been one
ol average condition, would have yielded
303,700,000 husholsof winter and 218,500,
000 of spring wheat; so that an 'average'
crop Inst year would have been 522,200,009
bushels, or -11,500,000 bushels more than
the actual crop. The principal of averages
on which the department's reports are dosed
requires that the present percentages of con
dition ofspring and winter grain should be
applied to these latter figures, which would
give 252,071,000 bushels of winter and 170,
085,000 of spring, or a total of 429,050,000
bushels, or a deciease of 62,000,000 compared
with the crop of 1860."
Respecting 00m, there were this year
63,141,000 acres planted with corn
against 52,605,031 in tho year 1880. The
average condition on August 1 was only
77. against 00 on July 1. We quoto :
"The total area planted this year Is 03,
141,000 against 52,605,000 acres In 1880, be
ing an Increase of about twenty pr cent.
The total crop or last year, as estimated by
the Department of Agrlculluro, was 1,537,
500,000 bushels. As the Auaust condition in
1880 was 98, an 'average' condition would
have given a yield of 1,568,000,000 bushels.
Applying to these figures tho current 77 per
cent 01 condition, wo have 1,207,000,000
bushels as tho yield indicated upon an acre
age the same as that of 1880. As above
shown, however, this year's area exceeds
that of 1880 by 20 per cent, allowance for
which brings up the present promise for this
year's crop to 1,448,500,000 bushels, or 89,.
000,000 bushels below that of 1880. Accord.
Ing to Ibis reckoning, the decrease from last
year's yield of corn, as Indicated by tho Au
gust condition, is 5J per cent. This result is
widely different from what bas been yary
generally expected, the difference having
arisen on the Important Increaso of acre
age, which has not been generally under
stood." CAUFIEID Olt CONICMNG
Tho delegates to tho Republican State
Convention, which meets on tha 8th of
September ot Harrisburg, havo had no
tice served upon them by the members
of tho National Republican League that
unless a candidate is nominated who will
suit that body war may bo expeeted.
The notice is in the form of a circular,
which has been mailed to all the delol
gates. It is signed by Wharton Barker,
Chairman, and these membsrs of the Ex
ecutive Committee: Samuel S. HoIIidrs-
wortb, Samuel W. Pennypacker, Edward
R. Wood, Henry Reed, Mayer Sulzberg
er and Silas W. PettiU The document is
11s follows :
" 2b the Delegate Elected to ike Republican
o.utc uunrcncioi;
"We address you in full confidence that
you will not make the mistake of supposing
the nomination of a candidate fur Stale
Treasurer at tho present timo to be a matter
of minor importance, and that the outcoma
or your deliberations will show that vou
have been guided by wise counsels, and
have had regard 6olely lo the, best Interests
of the party. Though the office of Treasur
er is not in itself one of the highest moment,
it so Happens thot this Is the first Renubli
can State Convention which has assembled
since the new issues arose within the nartv.
and upon you will rest tno responsibility of
oayiug wncre tno jtepuDlicans of Pennsyl
vania shall stand. Back of the question of
a candldato lies the question whether the
party is to enter the campaign wheedeled In
to line beside the wounded President of the
United States or beside tho late Senator from
New York and bis adherents ; and by your
choice you will determine it. It has now
become ressonably certain that the forces
that compelled the last Stato Convention In
Pennsylvania to support a policy which, if
11 naa not been defeated at Chicago, would
have been ruinous to the party and disas
trous to the country, will bo brought to
bear upon you. All tho influences that are
potent in swayiug the actions of men will
bo exerted upon you to Induce you to at
tempt to reverie tbe events of the last two
years, lull as this period is with tho story
01 itepuullcan prosperity and success ; to
prevail upon you to set yuur approval upon
a.polioy which bas met deserved enndemna
tiod, and to put yourselves iu opposition to
the sentiment or good men everywhere, and
to tne bead of tho party and the nation.
Tho attempt will bo made, notwithstanding
tno lact that the wishes of the great majori
ty of the masses of the party are manifested
loo plainly to he mistaken, iu tbe hope that
any result will be accepted. But we ask
you tu remember, for the welfare of the or
ganisation so dear to us all, and whose fu
lure Is now so Kill of promise, that in the
changed condition of thlncs party ties can
no longer compel fo say by their votes that
that Is right which they know to bo wronz i
and to forget this fact is lo insure disaster
and defeat. The resolute determination of
hundreds of thousands of Republicans not
to vote in ravor or a third term in tho Presl
deucy If the issue had been forced on them,
me recent change of party control in the
strongly Kepublican cities of rhiladelnhl
and Pittsburg, are only warnings to the
wise, but to the blind and perverse Ihey
mean wreck and destruction. However
much our party pride might wish it were
u'.bcrwise these ure the facts, end it behooves
you and all of us to recognise them."
Gen. Grant has changed. Ho is rio
longer a sileut, uncommunicative man,
but talks stocks aud Mexican railroad
matters with the ease aud flutnoy of a
veteran speculator. lie has made a eood
deal of money too of Lite, and that may
nave something to do with his super
abundance of spirits. Juy Gould and
other shrewd magnates of the street, have
had'him In hand lor Borne time and uud. r
their expert guidance he has been able to
make sonio $75,000 by Bpecnlations in
stocks. "Wnat o chaugi is there my
countryman?" In his oouditlon to-day,
from his fiuauclal and avcial status just
before the war, when be could barely
keep soul and body together by working
a scrnbby little Minimi farm, whose
principal product was a very inferior
quality of cord wood.
Speculators in grain have hid quite
a lively shaking up lately, Cereals took
such a big tumble that operators on the
wrong tide of the market, felt compelled
to make heavy investments in the con
densed article to brace upon.
''To destroy properly vt ithout taking
life," is now the new cry of tho dynomito
"skirmishers." There was a man in
London the other day, who set firo to his
lodging-house, in order to make the in
surance on goods in his shop. The fire
burned up six people who Blept on an-
upper floor.and the Court decided ho was
guilty of murder. lie had not planned
to kill theso other lodgers, but only to
commit, In n manner, n fraud, that in
eluded a felony. But the Court said that,
when by reeson of a planned and suc
cessful fclouy n life was lost, there was no
difference betweon such a crime and a
plot to murder direct. A train-wrecker,
who puts a log or tie across tho track of
a coming train, for tbo purpose of rob
bery in the confusion of the wreck, is
just as guilty of murder ns 1: ho had
mangled or put an end to the passengers
by any other means. It is idiocy to hIU
nbout nny organized work of destruction,
or attempt, iu Rokbo's infamous work, to
draw lines between property and life. It
is not likely there are many Irishmen so
dull as not to see where all this leads to,
but there oi'ght to be enough to sit upon
Jeremiah O'Donavan, and keep him from
branding their cause with such danger
ous stupidity.
The Cameron managers would like
to slaughter Senator Davits, who is the
antl-machine candidate for Stato' Trca-
fcurer, if they dare. The Cameronians
nre not in love with Davies, becauso he
acted with the Independents in tho Leg
islature, and is band in glove with Buch
leodcrs as Wolfe and Mapes. They have
brought to the front Gen. Daily, who
acted with Conkliug, Grant and Camer
on at Chicago and is a Republican of the
most Stalwart type. Shrewd politicians
aver with a good deal of emphasis, that
Duvies has the strongest following among
Republican voters aud that any attempt
to defeat him by the usual tactics of the
Administration men, will react upon
themselves most unpleasantly. It looks
as if there will be lively times around the
Republican council fires.
American citizens of African decent
with military aspirations, ore just now
nuder a very black cloud. Tho first grad
uate of color from West Point and the
only commissioned officer of color now
in the Army, stands charged with de
frauding the Government of funds in
trusted to him as Acting CommibBary of
Subsistence at Fort Davis, Texas. Lieut
Flipper can now join Whittaker, James
Webster Smith ond other "cullud
youths, who tried to climb the lodder of
military renown and failed.
There is considerable nnxiety in
Europe in financial circles. Over $170,
000,000 of foreign coin, have gone into
the melting pots at our Assay office in
two years and more of the precious metal
is on its way htro in exchange for our
productions. Iu view of this fact, it is
surprising that we are a prosperous peo
ple deipite the peculations of dishonest
officials and tho innefioieut and expen
sive management of uuuy of tho impor
tant Departments of the Government?
That despicable, universally ejosio'
ed wretch Guiteuu, avows his intention
of Bocuring tho best criminal lawyer
money will procure to conduct his de
fence. Where this dyed in tho wool dead
beat and knavo, will secure tho needful
to accomplish this end is something no
body can find out.
If President Garfield should ilia
which God forbid it is likely that the
venerable Hamilton Fish of New York,
will be made Secretary of Stite. But
Conkling, who could without doubt,havo
the position if he wanted it, will bo the
power behind the throne, directing the
the policy of the new Administration.
The papers very irreverently speak
or ex-Senator Conkling's auccoasor as
"Old Lapham" which aide of the Admin
istration ienoe ho is on is a question,
which we do not believe he himself can
answer. Just now liu is evidently watch
ing to see which way the wind will blow.
WASHINGTON. '
ODE SritCUL LKTTKIt.
WAsniNaTox, D. G, August 27, 1881.
The past week lias been the most re
markable in tho news annals of the Ame
rican capital. Other great events have
come aud gone, plowing up the riublio
mind in their passage, other great alarms
have been sprung from timo to time,
other great anxieties have pressed the
publio pulse up to fever heat before, but
there probably never was such a oonstaut
and uninterrupted strain upon the nerves,
such a scries of alarms, such n week of
upa and downs, of hope aud fear, nnd
excitement, as tho one beginning last
Sunday aud ending to-day. From the
momeut of the President's relapse on
Sunday to the present hour there has
been scarcely a breathing spell of reason
able hope for bis recovery. Yet tho oc
casional recurrence of encouraging symp
toms and the almost coaxing voice of the
Presidtnt's physicians, have afforded a
temporary relief. These respites of nnx
ety have only served to whet tbe edge of
excitement at every reversed unfavorable
report. This constant strain upon the
nervous system bas had the effect, at last,
to produce au exhaustion akin to lethar
gy, and never since the dark days of the
rebellion, when the life of tho nation bung
tremblingly in the balance, have the
whole people suffered such a season cf
nnxicus wuiting as since lat Sunday
night, when the dispatch of Seo'y Blaine,
showing for the first time the exnet ccn
dition of the President, announced to the
country bow frail was the tenuro of bis
life. All during the week the sorrowing
people have eagerly looked for favorable
news, and each day ban closed with an
omiuoui forboding that the morrow
would bring forth fatal tidings. Since
Thursday uight the suspense has been
positively painful, and now even with the
'shade of hope" ns exprossed by Dr.
Hamilton, this morning, the feeling of
depression is not lightened, and as the
fatefnl Saturday dawns fear of Impend
ing dissolution crowds from the publio
mind the slender germ of hope of possi
ble recovery.
Thero Is a disposition to find fault with
the doctors because they will not tell the
actual truth about the matter. Now.
while I have been equally disposed to
.'kick at tbo occasional concealment or
apparent distortion of factsjn the official
bulletins, there is a line beyond which I
foci bouud lo say I think the phyi iciaus
arc assuredly right not to venture. This
is In the expression of adverse opinions
or even to indicate by any positlvo word
or purposely suggestive oot that tho Pres.
ident is going to die, though they may
think bo over so strongly. In preserving
a discreet rcscrvo when the symptoms aro
alarming and expressing their renewed
confidence and hope when tho patient Is
doing better I think thoy aro doing n
wise and creditable thing, and what
should be expected of them. There is n
professional sldo to this lino of conduct
which should not be forgotten. As long
os the President has a chance for life,and
le is a trite saying that "while there is
life thero Is hope," it would be a risky
thing to express an adverse opinion. For
should the patient recover it leaves the
pbyslclanB In a very ridiculous attitude,
His opinion on such n subject would not
bo worth much hereafter.
When the physicians opproachod the
noblo wife of our Chief Executive yester
day ovening and pcrformod their painful
duty, informing her that she must be
ready for the direct result thai her bus
hind's death was neur at hand, unless
nverted by a miracle, tho brave woman,
still strong in the implicit faith that such
a grand life could not bo torn from her
and from the country, replied forcibly
"Then that mlraclo will occur. My hus
band will recovor. Ho must." A fellng
of an Impending calamity pervaded every
person during the evening. The cabinet
wero all at tho White House, and some
of tho ladies were with Mrs. Garfield,
There was a deep 'fee-ling of gbom with
them. Hopo had nlmost forbaken them
when tho contents of the evening bulletin
were ltarnod. In conversation with the
doctors they learned that tho situation
was growing moro and more grave, and
they were given to understand that a
change must come soon. In fact, ono of
tli3 members stated afterward, they were
told that if a change lor the better did
not come within twenty-four hours the
worst might be expected. Tho Cabinet
aud their ladies nil Kft at 10 30. Secre
tary Windom bad tears in his eyes as ho
escorted his wife to their carriage. In
answer to nn inquiry, ho replied. "It's
bad enough, I tell you." Secretary Hunt
said: "I don't know any more than you
do about it." Secretary Kirkwood Baid:
Wo think the President will not recov
er." Postmaster General James, whoso
hopes bus been the strongest could not
speak for emotion. Secretary Lincoln
said: "The end looks near." Attorney
General MacVeagh said: "It is turning
out as I feared, and it won't be long, I
fear now. The only hope lies in tho effect
of tho nourishment iu the next few hours'
ArousT,
No rain has fallen in the vicinity ofPitts-
burg for seventeen days, and during the en
tire mouth the total rainfall has not been
ono Inch. Reports from Allesheny and the
surrounding counties stale that the draught
is proving disastrous to tno crops. It is
stated that evyything is drying up, and
unless thero be ram shortly the efTect will
be very serious.
