be patient. You are American citi

of a State, on the call of its con
stitutional authority, w hen is it to go
out? I ask any lawyer, when is it
to go out ? Why, it is to go out, gen
tlemen, when the domestic disturb
ance is quelled, not before. Cries
of ' That is so.' That is so, exact
ly. Xow, gentlemen, consider a mo
ment, I will be very quick. Cries
of "Hurry up." The next question
is, who is to decide ? A voice, ,-the

Legislature assembles in that State
and says to the Xational Government,
"We are at peace, go out," why out
you go. When the government says
to the national authority, "We have
done with you, go," they are bound
to go These are grave questions.
!ippose. now, ihat neither the Gov
ernment nor the Legislature makes
Hny such affirmation, how is the Pres
ident to know when to go? He
must exercise his own discretion.
Yes, gentlemen, these are stern ques
tions f constitutional law. They
must be met. You don't want to
send out of Faneuil Hall a series cf
resolutions that have no basis. 1
-ay, gentlemen, whoa the United
States was once summoned into Lou
isiana constitutionally, and when the
Governor nor the Legislature bad
anv voice as to whether thev should
! jit out or not, Grant was bound to
'exercise his own discretion. You
cannot blame him for that. A Hem-

Three vears osro Uaroa tie Hub -

made a journey around the
world: and uow he tells what he saw
and what bethought of it. His
name and station everywhere gained
for bim the best opportunities for
(observing, and be saw with keen
I ... ... -X-
eyes. Here is wuat he saw at .ew
York, and what he thought of it: At
New York everything is interesting.
I do not say that I am delighted w ith
everything. But it is impossible to
weary- of the extraordinary, feverish
activity which pervades Broad vay
and Wt'i! Street early in the morn
ing, or of the social elegance which
towards evening is displayed ia the
beautiful Fifth Avenue, the resort of
Luiidreds of loungers of both sexes
aud multitudes of carriages. The
excessive luxury of thc-se vehicles,
with their great coats of arms em
blazoned on every- panel, iho over
smart liveries, the heavy, nlmosi
piicelcss carriage hor.-cs, and the
somewhat extravagant dresses uf the
ladies, w hom nature has been kinder
to than their dressmakers, all com
bine to arrest the attention aud in
terest of the spectator, even should
they fail to satisfy his fastidious
taste. Oue tries to discover the
mor.il link betr.cen all this osteuta
tious display, which, though oa re
publican soil, is not afraid to show its
face, and that thirst for equality
which is the motive power, as it is
the spur, the end, the reward, and
also the punishment of a democratic
society like the American. There is
no doubt that this fashionable world
is only tolerated by the workingman,
who elbows them roughly enough iu
the street, and by w hat arc emphat
ically called in Europe "the people,"
but their toleration is accounted for
by the hope which each oue entertains
and which in this country is not a
chimera of arriviug himself some
day at the same state of prosperity;
of seeing Lis wife, who to-day is at
the wash tub, or rinsing bottles in a
gin-palace, indolently stretched on
the morrow in her own luxurious
landau, or of driving himself iu his
gig with a fast trotter, which shall
cave cost at least $j,000; of sur
rounding inniieit, in tact, witn all
those material ctijovuietits, of which
the si-rht cxi-ites Lis loniring and ad
miration even more than his cuvy,
until his own turn conies. This is
what makes tre real distinction be
tween the American democrat and
the democrat of Europe. This last,
in despair ot attaining to a bighcr
position, strives to drag down every
one else to bis level. Envy and jeal
ousy are his strongest ntotivo pow
ers, and the result is the wish tc
lower and destroy. The American,
oa the other hand, wishes to enjoy.
To obtain this he must work to pro
duce the money, which ia this new
country is always possible and often
easy. Having done this, he feels
honestly that he is on a level with
the best of them. His object, 'here
fore, is to rise, lib seeks for equali
ty in a higher sphere than that in
which he was born and bred, and he
finds it. The European democrat
reckons on arriving at equality by
lowering every one else to his own
level. Of the two democracies I in
finitely prefer the American.

Xulurc says: "The report of the
potato disease committee of the Boy

lected that three vears ago Earl
Cathcart offered a prize of one hun
dred pounds fur essays on the pre
vention of the disease. Although no
fres'u practical information was
elicited, and it may oerbips be said
no direct good came from this well
meant offer, the society took the sub
ject up, and offered prizes for potatoes
reputed to be proof against disease.
Two prizes were offered for the be
ginning of this year for potatoes of
varieties already known, and two are
to be awarded five years hence for
varieties that may be produced by
cultivation before that period. Six
different 'varieties were sent in, one
ton (twenty bags of one hundred
weight) of each. The society ar
ranged to have these practically test

four ia Scotland, and four iu Ireland
were sclc-ted, and one hundred
weight of each variety sent for plant

potatoes. Huring the summer the
botanic referee of the society visited
all the localities, and in all cases dis
ease was found. Much valuable in
formation is likely to arise from the
statistics that have been collected, for
