The Citors. Many years havo passed
since tho farmer has secured so largo a
harvest not within our recollection has
thero been any thing like it. Tho grain
Tmrveat is not the only part that has paid
the farmer. The hay secured and yet to
bo cut will mako by far tho largest crop
ever beforo harvested. The promises for
orn could not bo better and a few rains
through August will fill the cribs to over
flowing. With this heavy crop there is
the prospect of a largo demand from
abroad for our breadstuff's. God has pros
pered us beyond measure this season, and
tbo land is teeming good. Tbo weather
has been rather pnstablo for harvesting,
but there is now a fine prospect that the
grain will be eured without loss,

Vallandigham.
Two weeks ago, wo had tho proud satis
faction of publishing tho great Speech of
this sterling Democrat, delivered recently
before tho Ohio State Convention, through
tho columns of tho Columbia Democrat.
Wo were in hopes that some of the Union
savers and Abolitionists, would detect
treason in Mr. Vallandigham's Speech, or
at least find fomo tangible objection to it,
but in this wo were disappointed, excepting
a faint squeak from a few of tho rottonest
of tho rotton negro-worshipping, lawdefy
ing and Constitution-breaking small-fi-y
papers of tho country. Aud not ono of
these, so far as we havo seen, has ventured
to call Mr. V. n tlJBreckinridgcr." Hurry
up boys. Don't tell your readers, that ho
said in that Speech, that on tho day of the
election he traveled several hundred miles
to vote for Stephen A. Douglas.

boys, swear to it, and keep running tho

of his life to tho support of tho Union, and
now, initsfardocliue, for itsmaintainanco,
has forfeited the society of his sons, daugh

causo in the midst of tho most irreverent lish in its columns tho consistent advocacy
blasphemies of tho Constitution. Thoy of such sentiments,
prato of cxclusivo Americanism, while,' If every Rebublican organ in tho coun
they accept as leaders, men who profauo try would adopt tho tono of the Evening
tho sages of tho past with inconceivable ca- j Journal, aud if tho Republican Adminis
lumincs. They do not attempt to ccnccal (ration aud tho Republican Congress,
tho fearful end which, should thoy succeed ( speaking through their act3, would attest
must crown their efforts. True to the his-1 tho sincerity of such professions, rc-union
tory of all sectional parties, thoy unito
men not by a lovo of country but by a ha
tred of National principles. Their bond
of action is a spmpathy of antagonisms
not a harmony of patriotic setitimonts;
and to consummate their purposes they
would sacrifice every great material in
terests of society. They have already suc
ceeded in dividing the christian church,
and now they would lay their hands upon
tho bulwarks of our liberties, they would
wrest the Constitution from the glorious
purpose to which it was edicted by its foun
ders: and thoy would erect at Washington
on a sectional despotism whoso presiding
divinities would bo hostility to tho equali
ty of tho States aud tho equality of the cit
izens, and relentless war upon tho domes
tic institutions of tho South."
Such was tho picture Mr. Forney
drew of th o Republican party such the
eloquent prophesies ho uttered. He is
now ono of tho very worst class of men he
execrated in 1850. He would "wrest tho
Constitution from tho glorious purposo to
which it was dedicated by its founders,"
and erect a despotism to destroy, liberty of
speech and of tho press. He invokes "re
lentless war upon the domestio institutions
of tho South" and publishes ''inconceivable
calumnies" against every prominent de
fender of constitutional liberty. Ho has
photographed his own features with fault
less accuracy.
Recruiting. The Government is ur
gently pressing the cnlistmont of men.
They are needed without delay now. It
it only recently that tho real heft of the
public enemy its powers and its numbers
has been ascertained. We have lost
valuablo timo in learning that men from a
Southern latitude can fight and fight well.
We must now accept this as a fact, and
prepare at onco to act upon it. Hence
more men should be put iu tho field and
that quickly.
Abovo all, tho Government is urging
the policy of filling up tho "old Regi
ments." This is its real policy. These
regiments aro under good and veteran
Commanders, and tho interests of tho ser
vice as well as tho good of tho men, gives
to this branch of enlistments a decided
preference.
Wo are gratified to stato that the re
cruiting in this county is gring on with
great alacrity j and wo expect that during
tho next week, tho full complement will bo
re id j'.
It is Amusing. Occasionally some
fellow who has neither tho brains nor char
acter to gain tho position he covets in tho
Domocratio party, is prompted by motives
of disappointed ambition, and malice, to
seek revenge by joiuing its political oppo
nents ; and it is amusing to see tho fuss
that is made over tho new recruits, by thoso
who havo no particular scruples about
names or principles. Theso hungry peck
ers for position and honor aro fed upon
promises as abundant, and about as sub
stantial as thoso offered to tho Savior on
tho mountain, It is one thing to promise,
and quite another to givo.

What Confiscation will do.
lUr. Henry W. Wilson, who has just
escaped from South Carolina, where he
had been imprisoned for a long time on
account of his Union Sentiments, gives the
following as his opinion of what will be
the result of the abolition legislation en
acted by the majority of the present Con
gress. In speaking of tho Confiscation
act he says :
'It is my opinion that the Confiscation
act will give additional force to the grctt
military movements which is now going
on in the South. It is general feeling that
if they are to lose their proporty, in any
event, it is better for them to lose it fight
ing in its defence. This, as I have said,
is the general feeling, and it is my belicl
that they will fight to the last against what
they consider, and what they are taught
by their leaders to regard, as an abolition
war. 1 have had evidences that there is
a Union feeling at the South ; but, under
tho present circumstances, it dare not
show itself, for it would be accused of
sympathy with thCabolition government
at Washington." as it is called. ''Had
General McClcllan been successful before
Richmond, and abolition legislation in
Congress ceased, I have no doubt that a
beneficial change would lake place in
Southern feeling, and that they would be
more inclined to friendly feelings on the
question of a restoration of the old Union."
Let it be understood, however, that as
long as legislation is carried on in the
interest of abolitionism, so long will the.
South combat it with arms, and seek, in
a separation, a release from what they
consider, under these circumstances, as a
'hateful bond."
JSOrTbo Rev. J. C. Fletcher gave us
last evening, a brilliant lecture on the ro
ligion, customs and people of Brazil. Sel
dom have wo relished anything more than
the picture he laid before his audience of
that exuberant garden of the tropiccs laden
with its strange variety of fruits aud flow
ers, teeming with perpetual harvest for the
hand of man. Surely that country must
be tho garden of tho world, and if its peo
plo had tho enterprise which moves this
Yankee natiou, imagination could not set
a bound to the results they would produce
thcro. As relevant to this comparison tho
llcvcrcud gentleman stated that the best
