Several republican papers are quite se verely criticising the action of the State Committee in calling an early convention, and we confess that we were inclined to think a later date would have been better, until the Philadelphia Times and other democratic sheets began io growl about it, and then we came to the conclusion tiuit there must be wisdom in the action of the commiitce. We have no patience with the fault-finding caiping spirit in the republican party, which is ever seek ing for occasion to find fault with and im pute dishonorable motives to our leaders. With such men as Gen. Cameron, Grow, Hartranft, Quay, Beaver, and hosts of other patriotic men, as active leaders, there should be no firing in the rear. By following such advice auid leadership iu the past, the republican organization has been kept in better trim and has won more substantial victories than any other state in the Union. Such men have the interests of the party at heart, and would sincerely deprecate any action which might imperil success, as much as any others could. In a temperate and well-eonsiderd arti cle in condemnation of the "counting out" fraud in Maine, the Richmond State remarks that if the Virginia Can vassing Board had taken advantage of all the trifling mistakes and omissions which occurred in the returns of the late elec tion, it would have been an easy matter to count out enough of the "lleadjlisters" to give the "Funders" a majority in the Legislature. "But they never once thought of perpetrating a crime of this enormity." The officers who compose the board knew that their own places were at stake, and, in point of fact, they have all, with one exception, been relegat ed to private life by the new Legislature,but they knew that public sentiment would not tolerate any qibbling over trilling technicalities, and they accordingly gave certificates to those persons who were really elected. At the next election in Virginia the returns will be canvassed by a board composed of officers elected by the "Readjusters," and the thoughtful Virginia Democrats are unwilling that their bretheren in Maine should set a pre cedent, which might he availed of when the next contest takes place between the "Readjusters" and "Funders." NATIVK SUGAR. —The farmers' con vention at Willimatic a few days since was fortunate in being able to listen to Professor Collier, the eminent chemist of the Agricultural Department, who gave the result of his thorough series of experi ments in the matter of producing sugar from sorghum or corn-stalks. Professor Collier is not a visionary theorist, but a man whose scientific attainments are backed by hard common sense. He is familiar with the whole history of the sorghum experiments of the past, which failed chiefly because of lack of scientific information as to the proper time for cutting the cane. He has faith to believe that in a very few years the success which he has demonstrated as possible, will be a solid reality, and that this country will be exporting as much sugar as it now im ports, the trifling amount of $100,000,000 annually. The subject is one which can not fail to receive the attention of farmers everywhere. CHRISTMAS, 1879. NEW YEARS, 1880. EXT EAO It 1)1 NARY IN VOICE OK HOLIDAY AND IVTilliiiex\v Groocls. Mrs. S.
