Printed from new tyda, and illustrat ed with Several Thousand 1 Engraviugs and Maps. The work originally published under the iitle of The New American Cyclopiedia was completed in 1863, since which time \he wide circulation it has attained in all parts ol the United- States, ancl the signal tlnvelopmcntS which Ini ve'taken place in every branch of scUhioe. literature, and art, have induced die editors and publishers to submititto «i exact and thorough revision, and to issne a new edit ; on entitled The American Cyclop-E- Within the last ten years the progress of dis covery in every department of knowledge has made a new work of reference an inoperative want The movement of political affhirs bos kept pace *ith the discoveries.of science, and their fruiitnl*: application ,t> the industrial aud r.sCfifi r.vts and th« convenience pud* ‘refinement of social life.— Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our <own country, which was at its height when the lint volume of the old work appeared, has happily heen ended, wd a new course of commercial and industrial activity has been commenced. Large accession! to our geographical .knowl edge have been made by the indefatigable explor ers ol Africa. , The great political revolutions of the last de jade, with the natural result of the lap^e ot time, have brought iuto public view a mult tude^of new m en, whose names ar§ in every one’s mouth, aud whose lives every one is curious to know the Particulars. Great battles have been fought and Huportant se.ges maintained, of which the'de tails are as yet preserved only in newspapers or «»the transient publications of the day, but which now ought to take their places in peima went and authentic history. In preparing the present edition for the press, ^ '■ ‘ " - L ' ? editors-io-K SSSS,Slell?S boos iu the xuacttcal ar 1 the practical-aits, as M as to give . . • ~ - - e progiess o ttcranct aud original reccrcl of 'the Wutical aud historical events.

It is the army of 5,000,000 of men and women, who go daily and constantly to tke saloons for intoxicating drinks.— Marching twenty miles a day; it will take more than twenty-eight days to go by. - Now they are gnue, and close in thiir rear, comes another army marching five abret s-Uand sixty mflps in length.' 18 it,“there tire 530,000 confirmed drunkards. They are men and women who have lost all control of their appetites', and who are in the regular habit of getting drunk and mukiiig b&istsbf'ttiemlelves. March ing two abreast, the army is 150 utiles long- Scan them close. They are grey-headed men and faiv-baired There ale, alas! many women iu tile army, sank to deeper depths tlan the men, because of the greater heights from which they fell. It will take them seven dtys to go by. It is a sad and sickeniDg sight, but turn not away yet, for comes another army—100,000 criminals, From jails, prisons and. penitentiaries; they come: At the head of tfaisarniy comes a long line of persons whose hands are smeared with human blood. With ropes around their necks; they are oh their way to .the gallows Others are going to 'prison., for life. Every crime khowu to our laws have been com mitted by these people while under the influence cf strong drink. But hark!' Whence cyme those yells, and who are those boil ml with chains aud guarded by armed men? They are raving maniacs, made such by strong drink. Their eyes are tormented'by awful sights, and their ears ring with hbrri . sounds. Slimy reptiles: crawl slowly down their’ backs, and fiends from hell torment them before their time.. They are gone now, wo breathe more freely. But what gloom is this that per des the air, and what is that loug tide ot black comiug down the street? It is the line of funeral processions. On hundred thousand who have died tin .drunkard's death are being carried to their grates. Drunkards do 'not have many friends to mourn their loss, and we put thirty of their funeral proces sions into a mile. We thus have a procession 3,333 miles long. It will take a good part of the year for them to go by, for-funeral processions move slowly, yes, most of them do, yet once in a while an nucoffiiied corpse .is driven rapidly by. apd we hear the brutal driver sing: ■ “Quick rattle his bones, rattle liisbones; Over the stones! - - - Hu’s only a pauper, whom nobody owns Look into the coffins as they go by. Gee the dead drunkards! Some died of delirium tremens, and the lines ot terror are still marked on tlieir faces. Some froze to death by the roadsisle, too drunk to reach their homes. Some stumbled from the wharf and’wen- drowned; some wandered in t > 'h woods and 1 i -d, and retied n h surface of the earth; some blew their own brains out; some were’ fearfully stabbed' in drunken brawls; others were crushed, into .a shapeless mass under the cars They du d iu various ways but strong drink killed them all, and on tlieir tombstones, if. they have any, may, be fitly, inscribed, ‘He died died a drunkard’s death,’ Close be hind them comes; another long line of funeral processions, but’ they are nu merously intended by mouiniug friends. They contain the remains of those who. have met death through jssuess.aud cruelty of drimk.- en men. S6me died of broken hearts; some were foully murdered by drunk It has taken nearly a year for the street to empty itself of its year's work. And close in the rear, comes the yangnard of next year’s supply.— And if this is what liquor has done in one year in .our great country, wbat must its result be the world through in all the long centuries.

Grant gives notice to Con gress and the country that he finds nothing to regret in his past treat ment of the South, and has no change to promise in his policy for the fu ture. He has- executed the Enforce ment laws according to their letter and their spirit, and he will repeat ibe transactions of the recent cam paign whenever the occasion arises.— He firmly believes in the stories of the Hon. Chas. Hayes and the Chatta nooga Convention. He approves of Beach, Hester and Hodgson. He de noonces the tbe Southern whiles with threat bitterness for the crimes of mur- derj-'outrage- and intimidation, bv which they have attempted to control the vote of the freedmen; and. while he admits that they have had Jo live und<-r rather “trying” governments,’ he intimates that they grumble- alto gether too much. This is not a cheer ful declaration from our Chief Execu tive,, biit it is precisely wbat might have been expected from his obstinate character, and we have not the slight est doubt that he will carry out his rough policy to the.end, unless he is checked by Congress. He is right, of course, iu hj_s determination to exe cute the Enforcement Jaws so long as they remain upon the statute books; that is his plain duty; but he has al lowed-the partisan zeal of his officers to carry them far beyond the author- body and’soul in providing for chil dren whom a drunken father has left. destitute. They cannot tell how many- about which Congress will probably mothers’ hearts, have been broken with grief, as they saw-a darling-son bgcome a drunkard.

They cannot tell us how many hard-fought battles, the drnnk&rd in his sober moments, has had with tbe : most dangerous excesses in the sacred name of r justice. These are wrongs have something to say .before another opportunity is presented for their commission. In-respect to Louisiana the Presi dent is complacent and resolnte.

Kellogg was originally set up bj a fraud, in which Gen. errant was one of the chief movers, and it is monstrous to pretend that the President is not at liberty to rec ognize tbe true government because lie. lias heretofore unlawfully aided the false one. But his determination, wrong as it is, throws upon Congress a responsibilty which that body cannot afford to disregard. Gem Grant would undoubtedly be very glad to get rid of, Kellogg. The Republican party likewise feels that it.has carried that dirty burden quite long enough, and that ft,must lose no time in nn- jpadingif it ever means to ran another race. We know of fewtliing3 that would give, the party more Vidtiable help with less trouble than the passing of an act immediately for the relief of Louisiana. . Upon tlie whole we take it to be clear from the message that the South has nothing to hope from Gen. Grant.

Smith, a market gardener of Green Bay, furnishes the Horticultu rist some interesting statements of his experiments-in high culture. He has found the rule invariable, not an exception to it, that the more he has spent in cultivating and manuring, the greater have been the net profits per acre. Last seaspn he- cultivated fourteeaacres, and began with a more thorough and expensive cultivation than ever before. The result was that although .there was a “terrific arougth’ —one of the dryest seasons ever known in that region—after spending §3,9S6, or §384 per acre, he had a bet ter balance than any previous year. He appears to regard constant culti vation, especially through drought, in connection with copious manuring, as all important, Stable mannre is the standard, with speh of superphos phates, plaster, lime, ashes, and other manures, as experience and- good seDse poirt out: “After you have learned to spend mouey to the best advantage,” he remarks, *‘a larger profit may be made by laying out- 8300 per acre than with less. After the second year, if your land does not pay all its expenses, tax, and ten per. cent on,§1:000 per acre, there is some thing wrong somewhere. I have some acres that Bid not pay expenses for two years, but for a number of years past^have not Jailed to pay ten per cent, on at least §2,000 per acre. I expect my whole garden to do more than this in a short time.” He adds that he is now aiming at one-thoiisand bushels of onions per - acre, then a crop of carrots or turnips, or five hah- Flinging Shadows. We have no-more light to flmg an onnesce8sary shadow over the spirit of those with whom we have to do, than we have to fling a stone and in jure them. Yet this flinging shadows is a very common sin, and one to which women are particularly addict ed. Ob, what a blessing is -a merry, cheerful woman in a honssliold! One whose spirits are not affected by wet days, or little disappointments, or whose milk of human kindness does not sour in the sunshine of prosperi ty. Such a woman in the darkest hours brightens the house like a’little peice of sunshiny weather. The mag netism, of her smile, the electrical brightness of he looks and move ments, infect every one.
