A woman died recently iu Trenton, Mich., in giving birth to her thirty-first child.

A remarkable feature iu the Androscoggin river, in Maine, has been brought out in the hydrographic survey just ended, namely: the feasibility, at a low co»t, of a “cut" from the Umbagog lakes to the Ellis branch of the An droscoggin, through which the surplus waters of sixty aqnare miles of lakes can be made available, wholly in Maine, for the purposes ot power and long driving, It is a striking fact, as illustrating the world’s progress, that in less than twenty-four hours after the international boat race a thousand journals, published in the English language, at points widely distant from each other in the two hemispheres, were commenting upon the result, with the advantage of knowing tho incidents of the contest us fully as if the writers had witnessed it from the Middlesex or the Surrey shore. atituUou of every Bute iu the Uuiou, the freedom of thepr*M*la without qualification.

They were usually selected with reference to their fighting qualities —that is, for tfieir brutal in- sliucts. Such men were a sort of uscossary appendage—a species of jacks napes—to the higher order, or at least better favored class of men she oontroled them. They moved only as they were wrought upon. They had tio opiuion except by influx from their keepers. Their mission was to glorify, toady to. aud fight for their masters. Argument was a refinement of civilization of which they knew nothing. They held all such attempts in supreme contempt. Denunciation, personal abuse, rtrticule, slang -these were the recog nized implements of political disputation those led to bullyisra, duels and murder, all the bolter. A man was uot estoemed “gentleman” until he had killed or attempted to kill ooa of hia follows on “the field of houor.” In the South there bos been a perceptible im provement iu journalism. “Organs” aud organ grinders are less numerous than they once were uot that the number of aspirants have dimin ished; bat that this, like other systems of bar barism, naturally recedes before the Civilization. And yet there still is room for im provement. There is great need of a higher standard of journalism in the South. Tuero are still too many quacks, novices and slang- whangers in the profession. It needs purg ing. It needs accessions from the educated and talented men of the country. The loafers and bullies should be starved out. Ignorant aud conceited creatures who are too lazy and indolent for bod carriers, too dull and ob tuse for blacksmiths, too poor aud Rhiftless for “genteel loafers,” and too vulgar and un gainly for dancing masters, should bo provi ded for otherwheres than in the editorial pro fession. And yet our noble profession will be clogged with this disgusting literary fungi, just so long as the People refuse to withdraw their support from them. It is with the read ing public to say what shall be the character of our future public journals. Each and every legitimate member ot the press is personally interested in this reform Aud each is uuder personal obligations to his readers, aud to the profession whareof he is a member, to do his full part in purging the newspnper press of its siaog-whangers. If every high-toned uud respectable journal in the South would take high grouud iu this mut ter, and thus, by their example, appeal to the candor aud moral sense of the public, the pro** would, in time, bo rid of its ignorance aud bullyism. It will take some moral nerve to do this, as it takes nerve to push any other needed reform; but with sufficient nerve on tl*o part of a f««- determined members of the press, me worn can u« uappnj cuumiuhuiucu.

U ought to be the party of progress, he says, of liboral ideas, of equal rights, of law end order. \t ought to insist on the honest payment of the debt, without ©evil, “even though its present holders should have bought it below its fair value.” It ought, he thinks, to dt m-ed *unh a policy as will more quickly raise our bonds to par, whereupon he believes the currency will follow; that is to say, be un wittingly praians Secretary Boutwe.ll. The Democratic party ought also, bethinks, to advocate a thorough revision and reforma tion of the tax system on the principles of free trade. It ought to oppose all removals from office, except for good cause, such os ineffici ency and dishonesty. It ought to “favor a broad rather than a narrow basis of suffrage. " All this the Democratic party ought to do, Genetul Rosacrans tells the Ohio Democrats; and the whole couutry will agree with him. “ The Deuiooratio party ought to be u party of priuciplo, a party of life, of action and of progress. Fossils and fault-finders do uot properly belong to the party, and if found in it ought to go on tho retired list, leaving to its opponents, of all shades aud grade*, all nar row uud sectioual grounds, all monopolies and favoritism, based ou olass, creed, race, color or national origin. The Democratic party of tho United States ought to bold high the banner of uuivcrsul freedom, impartial justice and equality beforo tho law of nil who hve beneath the Hag of our country. “ What of old gave the democratic party in tho United States its prestige and spirit was it* profound faith iu tho capacity of man for self-government aud progress, under institu tions based on the great principles of liberty, fraternity and equality before the law, and its courage in currying the logic of its laith into action. Thence aroso that discipline, order and progressive originality which have marked its history and made its victorious bauner tho symbol of hope to lovers of free dom ut home aud abroad. ” All this is Irue -but, alas! what the demo cratic party was it has long ceased to be ; wh«it it ought to be, it is not ; it has beeu for years the refuse and creature of a party of fossil whigs; and its leaders have lacked courage to return to the old paths which for merly led them to victory. Nor do they give any signs yet of returning courage or genius. General Roaocrans wrote : “Should there be democrats whose mental organization or temper does not permit them to reoognizo existing facta or conform their action to great popular changes, let them, for the public good, abdicate tho leadership, and leave the energies of the people free to aot iu tho hue or life aud progress.” But before bis letter was made public the men to whom it was addressed had nominated Peudleton in bis place—one of the very leaders whom Rosccr.ins invited to abdicate, y.

The proposition ot the last Gougrosg that no nativo naturalized citizen of the United States shall hencefoith bo deprived by any State of the Right of Suffrage because of his race or color, is emphatically a measure of pacification. It Is a practical confession of the forco.ornt least the plausibility, of a sharp Southern criticism ou the Republican Nation al Platform on which Gen. Grant was nomi nated that the North proposed to impost Nt-grn Suffrage ou the South, but rejected it for herself. It is a correction of existiug an omalies utterly incompatible with genuine re publicanism And it will put au uud to a senseless, fruitless, irritating, damaging con troversy. and enable our people to gire p«rn mount if not undivided attention to great questions of fiscul urn) industrial progress which imperatively demand uudistractcd and thorough consideration.

Mr. Woodkury, tho Presi dent of the Convention* in his opening apeeoh told the Convention tbat the time had coroe when the Democratic parly must ooufeae that some things may aud must be taken as acoepted facte. Cone of those is tho scheme of reoonstroetion adopted by the Republican party. Buffrage must become the admittod right of both clMsee. Tho foot that mao is capable of self-government must be acknowl edged. No man is hia brother's keeper. Having hoard these truths from Mr. Wood bury, tho Convention wus prepared to hear Mr. Adams, when nominated, declare— That Iho result of tho lust Presidential oleotiou bad settled the question of ioooq- struction aud uegro suffrage.

Wo should look the matter in tho face and in quire what tho public welfare now demand*. There was no use in fighting over a defeated battle, but wo must move up to a new posi tion hoping to gain a victory there. Tlio problems ot tho future are most important.

It is a grave mistake that this has not been done; but thu error is uot yet fatal. The postponement of the Mississippi and Texas elections to tho lest of November must, wo suppose, be submitted to ; but Virgiuia should bo restored to herself forthwith.
