Tr .Th Discontented Voter.
The diicontented voter grumblei
Icckuso taxes are bo high ; so he pro
pose to vote for the Jartj which
mda the waf and thai caused the
hish taxes, -
The discontented voter grumbles
because the Republican part sup
ports the spoils ejetcm ; so ho propoa-
sif vo Yuie iur met jj.ui wuitu iiivcu i jj
ted the spoils s jBiem. .
Tba discontented voter complains
of the operations of O&kea Ames and
the Credit Mobilicr; to ho will vote
for Samuel J. TilJen, whoso cunning
advice enabled Ames to execute his
Schemes. '
' The discontented voter has a horri
ble suspicion that Blaine made $75,
000 oat of railway shaies ; so he must
vote for Tilden, who has gobbled up
from $3,000,000 to $6,000,000 in rail
road wrecking. i .
- The discontented voter imagines
that the country will be mined if
Eontwell and Chandler be allowed to
electioneer so much bo he will escape
this evil by joining , the party whose
conventions are controlled by the sub
lime John Kelly and the pure John
Morrissey.
The discontented voter is astound
ed that the Republican party allows
ehysters and smugglers to escape tax
ation ; ao he goes and weeps at the
party malignity that would compel
Tilden to pay his income tax.
The discontented voter is sad that
the Administration has been so shift
less as to borrow money at six per
cent, interest, so ha will vota for the
party of Buchanan, who borrowed at
sixteen per cent, and soTd the bonds
at a discount at that.
The , discontented voter groans at
the wickedness of the Administration
- in turning men out of office for polit
ical reasons; so ha seeks consolation
in the action of a Democratic House
of Representatives which made a clean
sweep of the Union soldiers to maka
places for those who gallantly shot at
the defenders of the flag.
The discontented voter is afraid
that the enforcement of the laws by
Grant will be regarded as an unwar
. rantabla interference in the elections ;
bo he would accept the results of the
shotgun and midnight assassin system
as one of the inconveniences of freedom
which mast be tolerated in order to
k secure the perfect purity of the ballot
in those States which suffered most
: through the late unpleasantness.
i The independent voter was intense
ly indignant that Grant should keep
his mouth shut under the grave accu-.
sations of being willing to accept
office a third time ; but the silence of
Tilden on the income tax is so digni
, fied and majestic that he , can .hardly
refrain from shouting a vociferous ap
; plause every time he contemplates its
stupendous significance.
.. The catalogue might be largely ex
tended, but it is sufficient to show the
extraordinary consistency of the dis
contented voter.
Frederick Hecker, of llliuois, the
, heroic German patriot, is rendering
admirable service to the Republican
party in xnuiana, especially among
the uermans. in a late speech he said :
While iu Europe in 1873, and while
on a casual visit to one of the largest
banking houses in the old country,
was asked whether I knew Tilden, of
' New York. Upon answering that
Tilden bad the reputation of being au
able attorney, tho banker answered
me that Tilden had his fingers . in all
the dirty transactions which caused
European bankers to invest iu all
. the bad, worthless railroad bonds of
America. A similar character Tilden
enjoys on the Bourse of Money Ex-
change in London, Frankfort-on-the-
mam, etc. He impression tbu3 crea
ied by bringing such an individual
forward as a candidate for the highest
' office in the gift of the people can well
, bo imagined, especially when in his
letter ot acceptance be portrays mofct
damagingly the mnjority of his fellow
citizens. What character must tho
others bear in their estimation, when
this same 111 den, who had his hands
in the dirty work of railroad corpora
tions, is the "pearl of tho nation V
The New York Tribune puts it thus:
'the Democrats require, not only New
York, but 12 more electoral votes, and
even with New York and Indiana, if
thev miss a single Southern State they
are beaten. But there is at this time
every reason to believe that they will
be beaten in New York. With the aid
of many thousand Liberals and Inde
pendents, Mr. Tilden polled 416.000
votes in 1874, while in spite of the
Liberals 440,000 voles were polled for
President Grant in 1872. In this con
test the entire Republican strength
will be polled : it will be en-forced by
thousands of Democrats who distrust
the position of their party with re
spect to the finances and the public
honor. Similar changes will appear
in other Northern States. The Re
publicans have only 23 votes to gain,
if they are defeated in every Southern
State. Indiana with two other doubt
ful States, or New York alone, would
give them the requisite number.
Two statement from reliable sour-
eea
deserve special consideration at
present one. that there is cow a lar
rr Confederate artuy iu array in the
Southern States than at any period
during the war; and the other, that
more Union men haye been killed in
the single State of Miasimippi since
tho rebellion than were killed iu any

The following is an extract from a de
scription of Vineland, published in the
rsew York Trihune, hy the well-known
Agriculturist. Holon Kobinson :
All the farmers wore of the "well to do"
sort, and some of them, who have turned
their attention to rruits and market trard
enins. have grown rl?b. The soil is loam
varying from sandy to clayey, and surface
geniiy undulating, intersected with small
streams and occasional wet meadows in
which deports of peat or muck are stored
snlttcient to fertilize the whole upland sur
face, after it has been exhaiiMted of its
natural fertility.
It is certainly ono of the most extensive
icrine tracts, in an almost level position
and suitable condition for pleasant farm
ing, that we know of this side of the Wet
ern prairies. We found some of the old
est farms apparently Just as profitably
productive as when hrst cleared of forest
uny or a hundred years ago.
1 he geologist would soon discover the
cause of this continued fertility. The
w hole country is a marine deposit, and all
through the soil we found evidence of
calcareous substances, generally in tho
form of Indurated calcareous marl, show
ing ninny distinct forms of ancient shulls
of the turtlary formation ; and this marl
substance is scatUtred all through the soi
iu a very coinmim.tod form, and in tho
exact condition ixtot easily aaiimnilaU
