THE DAILY TIMES. Columbus. On.. THURSDAY JUNE 3, 1875 FHANCIM FONTAINE, | : > . . Editor*. C. 11. WILUAMN. ) LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION I City HJict Niiburb. ■ a." 1 .I.' - KEHOVAL. tf!i Times Office has been removed from Gun by's Building to the old Enquirer Office, on Ran dolph jftreet, third door wont of the Post Office. It Is stated that Hhermau has been offered $40,009 by the Appleton* for the copy-right of his book. Aooobdixu to records produced by General Boynton, General Hhermun is a monstrous falsifier of history. Acoobdino to the Paris Monitcur, tho steamship Schiller was lost on the anniversary of the death of tho poet after whom slio was named. What tho papers call the “Holn caust, at Holyoke” was a heartrend ing affair. Seventy persons were killed by fire while at prayer, and many more severely injured. Fire Is no respecter of persons or conditions. Recently a similar alarm was sound ed while Mr. Spurgeon was preach ing in London, and the rushing crowds crushed fifty people to death. Pali. Boyton was in the waters of the channel twenty-three hours and thirty-eight minutes. He left, the French coast at Capo Grisnez, and lauded between Dover and South Foreland on the English coast. The distance traveled, as It were, must have been in the neighborhood of sixty miles. Tho life-saving suit is now more popular and famous than ever. The general synod of the Lutheran church in the United States, now in session at Baltimore, is composed of representatives from si,') synods, 1,228 churches and 117,02!) cAnmunlcants. This is tho largest body of Lutherans In this country. Tho number of min isters is 76!), of whom ft lurge number are in attendance at the present meeting. The introductory services were conducted by Prof. Ort, who preached the synodical sermon. “Ihh Dot So Wo have on sev eral occasions expressed doubts about the economy of raising cotton at 14 cents per pound wherewith to buy corn at $1.25 per bushel. But the Romo Commercial tells of a practice in its neighborhood in winch bad management is still more clearly shown. It says that farmers who sold corn to tho merchants at 75 cents per bushel are now buying corn from them at $1.50 on a credit. When they come to pay for it next fall with ootton at 14 or 15 cents, the circuit of improvidence will bo complete. Cheap corn is needed to make cotton culture profitable, and the only way to secure cheap corn when transpor tation from tho West is so high, 1h to raise It at home. - Enquirer-Sun. We copy the above only to explain why this stute of things exists. The farmers described above are chiefly tenants or very small farmers. They know beforehand that they will have to pay to merchants $1.25 to $1.50 per bushel for corn that costs tho merchant only 75 cents per bushel. But, although they have fewer luxu ries and are less extravagant than any class of our people, yet this course is necessary to got bread and meat enough to keep their families alive. Their desire to be honest keeps them hard pressed all the time, and they eke out a miserable living as “hewers of wood and drawers of water” for men who do not work one twentieth as much. We know of no remedy; but it is a sad truth, and this is tho reason “farming don’t pay.” Soma of these, farmers do not raise any cotton. Tim PKKHinrvrM letter. Gfant waited until the Pennsyl vania Republican Convention had specifically declared against the third term. His letter states that ho has never been a candidate for the Presi dency; and that he only accepted it, in the first instance, at great personal sacrifice, becauso the country could not got along without him. If such a contingency should again arise, ho will accept it again. Having a clear eye to business, ho caused bis salary to bo increased to $50,000 per annum, and thus off-set tho relinquishment of his life-office of General-of-tho Armies. Ho thinks that occasions may arise in the history of the coun try, in which a third term may be .absolutely necessary; and it is certain that Grant can bo easily persuaded, at uny time, thut it is to the interests of the country to re-elect him Presi dent. So long as there was no out spoken opposition to his third term inspirations, Grant was reticent; but when it suits his purpose—as in dealing with Indians or rebellious Republicans—he becomes exceeding ly communicative, and talks like a conqueror dictating terms. The letter concludes thus: “The idea that any man could elect him self President, or even renominate himself, Is preposterous. It is a re flection upon the intelligence and patriotism of the people to suppose such a thing possible. Any man can destroy his chances for the office, but no one can force an election, or even a nomination.” That this idea is not preposterous is shown by the conduct of Sheridan and DeTrobriand in New Orleans, which, if carried out to its logical end, would place Congress as much at the mercy of Grant as Parliament was at the mercy of Cromwell, and redueo the ballot to tho pliable machino which enabled Napoleon to annex Savoy and elect himself Em peror "par ie Grace dc Dic'd ’ and the will of the people. The most predominant trait in the President’s lettor is self-praise; and no one can see in it an intention to decline tho nomination if offered to him. On the contrary, it seems rath er a bid for the place, or for that oth er place, "the emoluments of which he so much needed.” It is a shrewd letter: like the coquette's answer, it mean* yes or no, and neither yes nor no. Tho main effort of tho President is to place himself on a line with tho rights of the peoplo. But the time lias never been- -not even in the timo of Washington, who was as anxious to retiro ns Grunt is to remain—when the liberties of the people required the continued of one man for tho Presidency. It is just tho other wuy; no danger is greater or more insidious in Its advances than this. His letter is evasive, and com mits him to no policy; it would have boon wiser had jio not written it, It will not bo acceptable either to Re publicans or Democrats as finally set tling the vexed question. While Grant will not “run,” ho will allow his friends to run him. His letter, if written at all, should have been writ ten a year ago. No act of his career shows such utter indifference to tho welfare of ills party or tho country as this protended declination. His ego tism is unsurpassed; his obstinacy dogged; his selfishness supreme; yet he is most probably the strongest man in his party. We copy from the Han Francisco Call the following, and fully endorse it: “When one manor clique of men aim to shupo legislation to their own personal purposes -to oloct public officers to servo private interests—to employ their wealth in purposes of corruption that, greater wealtli may flow therefrom- we do not hesitate to pronounce such a man or clique of men enemies to the best interests of tho public, without regard to the ex tent of tho business enterprises in which they may be engaged. The development of material wealth is essential to our continued prosperity; but even more important is tho main tenance of correct principles in busi ness, purity in our courts of justice, and uprightness in the discharge of public trusts.” loiter a iron* (lie .Hulliffanft. Turtle Hahbok, St. Joseph's Bay, i May ID, 1875. j We were up at the peep of day on the morning of the 14th, our ordnance in order, and wo in fine trim for the day’s sport. We had a splendid breakfast of salt-water trout and mullet, procured by our captain with i a cast-net. Our exercise of the pre vious day and the invigorating sea breeze whetted our appetites to an appreciative temper. As we finished breakfast “Old Hoi” arose from tho depths of tiie placid waters, looking bright, ruddy and cheering. It was a grand sight to see the old fellow, seemingly fresh from a morning bath, nerving himself for his ceaseless jour ney. His genial warmth dispelled the chill of morning and we enjoyed our row to the beach that otherwise would have been rather uncomforta ble. As we neared our landing our attention was attracted by moving masses that almost obscured the white sand of the beach. On closer inspection wo found the phenomena, to us, to be fiddlers and sand-crabs. They scampered away at our ap proach ; some betook themselves to their holes, others to the water, and were equally at home in either. Their power of locomotion is surprising. They move backward, forward or sideways witli equal facility. They remind me very much of some of our latter-day politicians you can never tell which way they arc heading. We left our amphibious friends and were quickly in tho deer range. A fresh trail was soon discovered and wo were swiftly on tlie wing again. Our cau tious "Cyclops” restrained us and we pursued our course more slowly. As we neared a “thick” “Long-Hungry” (ono of our dogs) manifested much animation. The Mulligans were on tho tip toe of expectation and each had satisfied himself how he was to kill the deer. Imaginary deer flitted beforo their oxoited visions, fortun ately, however, not near enough to cause them to fire. Each leaf that stirred was scanned with scrutinizing eyes, every bush largo enough to hide a rat was tho object of much solici tude. At last a yelp from “Hungry" and a yell from “Cyclops” burst upon the oars of tho Mulligans. The game was up~-yes, and going. “There they go! two of them!” Bang, bang,bang. “Look out, there they come!” Bang, bang. “I got him!” One of the deer falls, but is soon up again, and goes oft with a broken leg. They circle, and again the Mulligans try their skiHrat long range. I’here is an animatOTmscus sion as to who made the best shot, but as the deer carried off al! the proofs, a satisfactory conclusion could not bo arrived at. With a smile that was plaintive we took a horn - and blow our dogs from the chase. We consoled ourselves with the thought, “a bad beginning makes a good ending,” and again desired to interview the fleet-footed game. For tune seemed to favor us, for we had not gotten far when the dogs started another deer; ho was too far away, and we did not get a shot on the rise. The woods rung with the music of the dogs, and as they beeamo more and more distant the plaintive words seemed whispered iu our ears, “no deer from day to day.” Hark! the dogs are returning in full cry. “Scat ter across the woods!” cries our Nim rod. There is a hurrying in hot haste. With bated breath we grasp our guns and again vow death to the deer. The dogs are at fault. “Shall we lose him!” Bang! bang! bang! bang! A loud shout; the horn is blown. Alas! poor deer, your “sun has set.” We soon rally to the call and find "Moon shine Bill” and “Cyclops” in posses sion of a fine buck. There is great rejoicing, and an impromptu war dance is called for by the Mulligans, when our sage hunter calls our atten tion to the fact that the meat, must be carried to the bay, two miles dis tant, The dance is postponed, and we prepare to carry our meat; we tie the right hind leg to the left fore leg, and right fore leg to left hind leg, and are ready to start. ‘•Moonshine” comes in for the first turn ; we strap the deer over his shoulders and urge him to look lively and step spry—but I he don’t, worth a cent. Each of the Mulligans tries the experiment; ditto is the conclusion. We call into roqui ! sition our heavy man, Bob, and the "band goes marching on.” We ar i rive at the bay and send for tho boat to tako tho meat aboard, and ulso to instruct the “Jacket” to meet us at | St. Joseph’s Point, ns we desired to | eontinuo our hunt, j Wo arc soon in tho woods again, j very muoh encouraged at our success. ] We pursue our way to the Point— j havo considerable sport, as we jump several more deer, get several shots, draw blood, but no more meat. We | arrive at our destination late in the , evening, tired, hungry, and ready to do justice to tho venison steaks we havo been longing for, for some time, j Supper, or rather dinner, is already i prepared, and wo enjoy it as only | hungry hunters can. The venison is j juicy and sweet, much more so than i your correspondent ever ate beforo. ! Our thoughts turned to our friends at j home, and wo wished them with us in our enjoyment. Supper over, we j set sail for Turtle harbor, the pres ent headquarters of the band, and had a delightful moonlight sail. We reached our harbor after a pleasant run, furled sails, cast anchor, and prepared for our night's rest. We I made our bed upon deck, and retired, j We made an early start on the j morning of tho 15th on a fishing ex- j pedition, and had a splendid time with redflsh, salt water trout, pom-j pano, skipjacks, sheephead, and j many other varieties common in these waters. Our boat was soon un comfortably full of fish, although we had not tired of the good work. We returned to our yacht, unloaded, and went crabbing. Our success in this lino was equally good. They bit well, as some of tho Mulligans uninitiated in crab fishing cun attest. "Moon shine Bill” landed tho first crab. It was some time before we could part him from his prize. He felt so elated at his success that ho retired from ac tive sport for the day, and wandered on the beach in quest of curiosities. Yours, in haste, One or the Mulligans.
