InJ., Dec. 13 TheDemocrat State Central Committemet htre to-da- y pursuant to requestof the Democratic Electors', to con-

sider the political situation. Quitea number of prominant politicans,including Hendricks and State of-

ficers, were present, besides repres-entatives from all the Congressionaldistricts. Julian,of the Louisiana visiting commitee,?ave his opinion tliat the Louisanaelection was as qt iet and peacableas iu Imlinana, aud that Tilden car-ried the State overwhelmingly. Hehoped the Democracy would havethe pluck to stand up for their rightsand meet the crisis. He was satis-tie- d

we fchall have no war. Gov.Hendricks was called for. but thechairman reminded the an lience ofthe imporopriety of his speaking.Districts then reported feeling nsfollows; Tue first district believedTildr legally elected, and were dis-pos- ej

ff prchaser thinking, doubtlessly,that- - they were- - getting somethingnew and of superior, quality.

We believe, in patronizing homenurseries, when they furnish treesin better condition, of at least asgood fruit, and of cheaper price, tonurseries situated in other Statesor communities.

And there is another point that ifas strong as any we have broughtout, in favor of home nurseries andthat is our nuiseryraen have established a reputation among us onwhich we can depend, and we getfruit of them we can rest assuredthat it will be just the kind that therepresent it to be. This cannot bsaid of foreign nurserymen, for wedo not know them nor do they knowns and we have no means of findingout whether we are cheated or notuntil we have spent our money andtime and tried their fruit trees.

The Oyster in Europe.

The common oyster of Europe,abundant on the coast of Great Britain and France, occurs in largfbanks or beds, sometimes extendingfor miles, usually on rocky bottoms;from about the middle of August tothe middle'of May tney are dredgedfrom the bottom by a kind of ironrake drawn by a boat under full sail,several hundreds being taken at asingle haul; these are transferred tcartificial beds or parks, where theyare preserved for sale, continualhgrowing in size and improving in fla-

vor. The growth of the oyster islow, it' being only as large as ahalf dollar at the end of four to sixmonths, and twice that size at thtend of a year. In artificial beds tbegrowth is usually slower, the fuli6ize not being attained till the fifthto the seventh year. The west coastof Scotland and the Hebrides havethe best oysters of the British coasts,and here in sheltered bays they acquire the green color so esteemed bvthe epicure, and supposed to be dueto confervce and similar coloredgrowths iu their breeding places;other English beds extend fromGravesend on the Thames along theKent coast, and in the estuaries othe Colne and other rivers along theEssex coast. The British beds arekept up by careful culture, aad bythe introduction of broods from allquarters; since 1872 several varieties of American oysters have beenintroduced, but the planting is stillan experiment, and it is said thechange of sea deteriorates iheiiquality. Not many years ago thebeds of France were nearly exhausted. In 1858-M- . Coste recommendedplans for their restoration., and sincethen the parks in the bays of StBrieuc and Arcachoo, and the Isleof Re, restocked by broods fromCancale and other sources, have become enormous; and the successfulculture is yearly extending alonthe entire Atlantic and Mediterranean coasts of France. The Danishcoast is well supplied with Led

DEMOCRATIC SIDE OF THE LOUISI

ANA CASE.

Chicago. Dec. 11. Papers thin morningpublish an address of Palmer, Trumbull andothers, Democratic visiting committee to New

Oreans. It is addressed to Hon. A. S. Hew

itt. Chairman of the Natioi.al DemocraticCommittee. They say the facta connectedwith the election and returns sbow that theaction of the returning board in procl aiu-iu- g

the election of the Hayt-- s electors, in

arbitrary, unfuiraud without warrant of law,and adopt as applicable to this canvass tbelanguage of tut) report mada to th U. S.House of Representatives iu '73 by GeorgeF. Hoar. W. A. Wheeler and Wui. P. Frye,iu regard to the cauvasa of '72 in which theysay.-- "The so-call- ed canvass mad by thereturning boar J in thu interert of Kelloggseems to us to have no validity, and is eutitled to no respect whatever." We alsoadopt the language of th j report upon thecondition of Louisiana in 1975- - "In theState of Ijouisiaaa there is a Governor in office who owes his seat to the interference ofthe national power, which has recognizedhis title to his oJi:, not by reason of anyascertainment of the facts by legal process.but has based its action solely oa tbe illegalorder of a judgu. In the same Slate thor

legislature, one brauch of which dt-m-t

its authoiity partly from tho same order.the other bing organized by a majoritywho have beeu tablibe-l iu power by another interference of the national government, and which majority derives its titlenot from any legal ascertainment of tbefacts, but from the certificates of a returningboard which has misconceived and exceeded its legal authority." In November,137G, before the returning bord commencedthe canvass of the electoral vote, the candi-dates for electors on the Democratic ticketpresented a protest against its jurisdictionover the subject, or its canvass of the voterelative to the same. This protest was summarily overruled by the board without afford-

ing an opportunity for argument. No legalproposition in our opinion is clearer thanthat the board u as mistaken as to its powers,and that it bad nothing whatever to do withthe electoral vote. The election law of 1372,and araenduuuts under which the returningboard is created and acts, makes no provision as to the manner of appointing electors of President and Vice President, wheth-er by the legislature or by n vote of thepeople, nor whether by the State at largeor by Congressional districts, nor does itcontain any provisions as to the qualifica-tion of electors, the placa where they are tomeet, nor for filling vacancies.

After quoting the State law governing thereturning board, they say it is immaterial sofar as affects tho jurisdiction of the re-

turning bourd whether the act of 1870 relat-ing to the appoiiituii-nto-f Presidential electors is in force. If not rep a'cd, then thecan tash of returns for such elei-tor- s inuttberaadn by the Governor in presence of theSecretary of the State, Attorney General.

fined to an aHccrtainmt'iit of the person- -

elected according to tho return. In noevent can the returning board have jurisdic-tion over the returns of electors of Presidentan I Vice President, and .heir canvass ofthe same is therefore a mullity and eutitL--to repeci from no one.

The murders and outrages which havobeen brought to our notice are frequentlycommitted by persons of the time race uponeach other, aid in a large mij rity of easeshave no political Mgnificance. The assumption of the Republicans that all thecolored people in the Stata are necessarilyRepublicans is by no means true. It is certain th it thous ind of colored persons votedaquarely, and actively supported the Demo-cratic ticket. With th law and such factsbefore ns as have beeu disclosed by the aetion of the returning !oard, w do nothesitate to declare that its proceedings aswitnessed by us were partial and unfair.ant that the result it has announced isarbitrary, illegal and entitled to no respectwhatever.

Fifteen years ago, when Fort Snmpterwas fired npou by men who aoight a disrnption of the Union a million patriotswithout regard to ptrty affiliations, sprangto its defense. Will the snme patri ticcitizens now sit by idly andseer-'prsentativ- e

government overthrown by usurpation andfraud? Shall the will of 40.030,000 of people, constitutionally expressed, be thwarb dby tbe corrupt, arbitrary and illegal actionof an illegally constituted returning boardin L lUi ti t, w i )t ) wrvt;fal action heretofore in all respects similar to its presentaction, has been condemned by all parties?It isan al nitted f ut tint Mr. Tilden received a majority of a quarter of a millionof the vote at the recent election. Thismajority is ready and willing to aubmit tothe !inorily when constitutionally entitledto demand such submission; but is it willing that, by an arbitrary and false declara-tion of tbe voters in Louisiana, the minorityshall usurp power? These are dark daysfor the American people, when such questions are forced upon their considerationIf it were true, as some insist, that neitherthe wihte nor the colored voters have in allinstances been afforded an opportunity tocive free expression to their will at theballot box, shall we, by sustaining a fraudulent and illegal declaration of the votes cast.stifle the voices of millions of voters whohave freely expressed their choice, and thusseek to correct a great wrong by committinganother immeasurably greater wrong? Canwe sanction such action of the Louisianareturning board and thereby form a pre-

cedent under tbe authority of which a partynow in power may forever perpetuate itsrule and en 1 constitutional liberty? Shallsuch be the fate of this republic at tbe be-

ginning of tbe second century of its exis-tence r are the momentous questions nowpresented for the determination of theAmerican ptople. (Signed) Jno. M. Palmer, Lyman Trumbull, William" Bigler, GeoB. Smith. George W. Julian, P. H. Watteron.

The "London Time" on ths Imncr--

tanee, the Peculiarities and the Perilsof onr Fresidental Election.

It would be a harsh judgment toay that the people of the United

States do not comprehend the fullmeasure of their responsibilites; buttbe dust of tbe conflict proveriballyhides the battle field from the view

f the combat, and in the passicn-it- e

st'ife of parties wrestling for the'spoil" the intersts that are highertnd wider than any question ofpatronage and domination at Wash- -

ngton are easily obscured. Whatproportion of the citizens of tho Uni-

ted States will vote for the Freaideo-ta- lElectors, simply upon an impar-

tial comparison of thiir merits aspublic men, and their probable fit-

ness to exercise the controlling powr in the Federal Ooverment? Is it

not certain that three-fourth- s of theelectoral bodv will vote either uuderthe influences of party temper or ofinterested motives, or of shaeptshdeference to political bell-whether- s?

rbe same question, doubtls, mightbe asked, and be met with the sametoo obvious answer, in this country; but, as we have seen the decision in the Umteu states is mucurnore serious than any single elec-tion in thi country. Yet it maybe admitted that an honest American voter of moaerate intelligencemust find many difficulties in struggling to mako up hi mind whetherhis support of the Republican or ofthe Democratic "ticket" will betbe more likely to promote the publicinterest. If he gives his voice infavor of the Republicans, he seemsto condone the practices that havedisgraced the Administration of thelast few years, and to assent tacitlyto their perpetuation. It is truethat the evils of that system havbeen confessed, and that amanl-raen- t

has been profusely promisedat Cincinnati. The letter in whichMr. Hayes accepted the Republicannomination affirmed most stronglythe principle of "reform," thoughit was cloudy enough as to tbemethods. Bat, it is asked, is thispenitence lasting? Has Mr. Haves.i man of no cornni inding personalinfluence, the power to enforce hUideas? Is ho not a puppet in the'lands of the National RepublicanCommitee, of which Secretary ChanHer is tho Chairman? And have notthis Committee and tho "manager'of the party all over the Union studiously ignored "reform" and goneback with calculated fervor to the"dead issuo" of tho wni? Theseconsiderations miy make the impartiai elector pause usioro no gives nixvote for Mr. H iyev He might not beorry to see Mr. Hives at Washington, anil yet might revolt at theidea of a Cibinet chosen by Mr.Hayes, iu which Mr. Chandler andMr. Morton, and Mr. Conkling, andMr Blaine, and pissibly GeneralButler, would be the predominantspirit-- . But when he turns to theDemocratic "ticket" the impartialElector if we need trouble ourselvesany further about such u purely irnaginary personage-mee- ts with doubtsand dlflliultiea no less embirrassing.Is it possible that the Consitutioncan be be confided to the safe keeping of a party which depends Tor itspolitical existence upon the supportof the Southern States? Should MrTildeu be elected, he will owe hiselection to the Southern Democrats

the men who provoked and eairriedon. with unsurpassed valor ami determination, the war of Session.But these men it is said, when theyrret tho command of tbe Executivepower, will use it to desfrov thefjrovernment a:r mst which they rebelled and to which they had to submit. Or. if this alarmist doctrinebe too plainly exaggerated for themass of shrewd American, it is suggested that the Southeneis. triumphant by the aid of the Irish vote inNew York and New Jeresy and of theinflationists in Indiana, will attemptto repeal the Constitutional Amendments which secure the civil and political rights of the negro; or wilstrive to impose the burden of therebel debt upon the loyal cit zans othe Union; or will revive the binstering and filblusterin foreign policy of the States during the periotof Democratic rule; or will tamperdisastrous! j with the currency; insist upon paying the interset anprincipal ox the rvational debt inGreenbacks. Each of these busrbears will probably drive many voters awar from the Demscrats; butthe question is whether in the aggregate their effect will be greater thanthat of the popular reaction againstagainst Republican misd ing. Theevils charged against Democraticmisrule cannot be brought at present to the test of facts. The scon

THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE..

President Grant's) last message toCongress: is not a remarkable docu-

ment. He has disappointed his po-

litical friends by not taking decidedgrounds in regard to the electiontroubles in the South. But perhapshis conservatism and caution aboutexpressing, decided opinions on aquestion that ii as badly confound-ed as the Southern election muddle,is wiser than the bold and hasty de-

cisions Of his partisan friends andopponents. Here is what he saysabout the financial condition of thecountry:

"Taxes have been reduced withinthe last seven years nearly $300,000,000, and tho National debt has beenreduced in the same time over $435-000,00- 0.

By refunding the six per. cent bonded debts for bonds bear-ing 5 and 4 J per cent., interest re-

spectively, tbe annual interest hasbeen reduced from over $130,000-- ,000 In 1869, to a little over a $100-- ,000,000 in 187C. The balance ofthe trade has been changed fromover $140,000,000 against tho UnitedStates iu 18G0, to more than $120,-000,0- 00

in onr favor in 187G. It isconfidently believed that tbe balanceof trade in favor j of the UnitedStated wiH increase and not dimin-ish, and the pledge of Congress toresume spee'e payments in 1871)will be easily accomplished, even inthe absence of much desired legis-lation on the subject."

He thus barely suggests that Con-gress provide a safer mode of elect-

ing Presidents:The attention of Congress can-

not be too earnestly called to tbenecessity of throwing some greatersafeguard over the method of choosing and declaring the election of aPresident. Under the present sys-tem, there seems to be no providedremedy for contesting the election inany one State. The remedy is part-ly, no doubt, in the enligtenment ofelectors."

But in the following paragraphGrant takas a long strida ahead ofthe press of this country, on thesuffrage question, and which weindorse. The giving of the electivefranchise to one million negroes andwho could neither read nor writeand about the same number of igno-fa- nt

whites at the close of therebellion was wrong. Then wouldhate been the time to enact anamendment to the constitution es-

tablishing intelligent suffrage, butthat opportunity was lost and wefear, forever. Here is what Presi-dent Grant says about suffrage:

"The compulsory support of thefree school and the disfranchisementof all who cannot read and write theEnglish language, after a fixed pro-bation, would meet my hasty appro-val. I would hot make this apply,however, to those alrtady voters,but I would to all becoming so afterthe expiration of tha probation fixedUpon. Foreigners coming to thecountry to become citizens, who areeducated in their own language,would acquire the requisite knowl-edge of ours during the necessaryresidence to obtain naturalization.If they did not take enough interestin our language io acquire sufficientknowledge of it to enable them tostudy the institutions and laws ofof the country intelligently, I wouldnot confer upon them the right tomake our laws nor to select thosewho do.

PLANT YOUR FRUIT TREES EARLYAND B UT AT YO UR HOME

NURSERY.

Farmers, and all fruit growersshould plant their trees, shrubs,roots and bulbs early in the rail orwinter, as the fibres and rootletsstart in mid-wint- er and planting inthe spring puts them back, if it doesnot kill them.

iuy your trees at a nursery inyour own county if possible, and ifyou cannot get what you want there.buy at some nursery in the State, inpreference . to trees shipped fromthe Eastern States; for our nurserymen have spent a good deal of money in finding out what kinds of fruit I

are best adapted to our soil and cli-

mate, and we should profit by theirdearly, bought experience by purcha-ic- g

of them.. ; Besides, trees brought here fromthe East are bruised and damaged,and, quite likely frozen, as the rootsof trees are very tender and whenexposed of these cold nights are cer-tainly damaged if not killed.Furthermore, you can buy fruit and

shade trees cheaper at home. Somepeach, pear and cherry trees impor-ted into this county recently navebeen nold at from $1.00 to $1.50each when just as good fruitpossessing also the advantage of be-adapt- ed
