Mr. Doolittle on Agricultural Machinery Cracker Mosaics —Displays of Canned Goods— The Gentleman from Maine— Singe . Sewing Machines—Visit of the Operatives lmmense Mob of Visitors —Dom Pedro, t Uvmby Ward Bid- ÜBB, BTC., BTC. [From our Regular Correspondent.! Philadelphia, JuneHO,lS76. “My grat dfather would never lide out on that ’ar machine with a silk umberreller over his head, ef he knowd kisself,” remarked a deep bass voice behind me, and turning around I be held Mr. Doolittle contemplating a Buckeye Mower. “Them dcw fangled machines, sir, are destroying the race of far ners, sir. There ain’t uonc on ’em left to speak on no/' he said, look-, ing disdainfully on tho fiyiug rakes, as they went around like tho arms of a windmill. “This, I suppose, they call the Agricultural Department.— pooty Agricultural Department; ain’t got a tater o a squash.’' Anger was on his brow, heavy and dark, as he moved away. I looked around and it was, in and *cd a sight “Can it be possible,” I said to myself, “that these elegegant machines beforo me were ever intended for the field or are destined, in future to lay under the shed in ihebarn-yard.” Everything is constructed with a taste and beauty that seems to be absolute perfection. And this taste and beauty is not confined to any particular thing; it is eveywhere throughout the Agricultural Hall. Passing up the main aisle, you come to an exquisito exhibition of Mosaic work, in colors so rich and beautiful that your attention is immediately ar rested. Your first inquiry is what it is for, and you finally conclude that it is an unique specimen of Mosaic tiling. You draw nearer Can it be possible ! Why, it’s crackers ; nothing but crack - ers and biscuits—bnt crackers biscuits in such shapes and hues as you nevei* gazed upon before. This is the exhib it ol E. J. Larrabe & Cos., of Albany, New York, and is one of the most at tractive points in the Hall. Three hun dred different kinds of crackers and bis cuits are employed jn decorating the Wonderful Mosaic walls. And not, 1 am informed,specially gotten up for the occasion, but every kind duplicated in stock an subject to their regular bus iness order. As I stood there enjoying them, my mouth watered on both sides, 1 was in hopes some mischievous little scoundrel would fling a doorstiek and smash otic of the panes of glass by ac cident, but nary doorstick and and nary boy, so 1 passed sadly on, to find m3 self still surrounded by good things. Near me was a gigantic temple of candy, re presenting the signing of the Declare* tion ol Independence, a number of tab leaux iu American History. Washing ton crossing the Delowaro, the rescue of Captain John Smith by Pocahontas, The surrender of Port '1 icondcraga to Ethan Allen, The fight between the Kersage and Alabama, and, crowning all, the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation. It is a wonderful piece of work, and is but only one of the many beauties of Agricultural Hall. ' One thiog that appeals to the heart of every housekeeper is the manner in which fruits and vegetables can bo prop erly preserved through tho year, and this is certainly one of tho 6trongert rint in the Agricultural Department. do not believe that finer specimens than those exhibited iu this hall can be found in the world. They c<mie from many States, and are contributed by a multitude of people. Some are the con tributions private individuals, and others by established manufacturers. Fore o most among the Manufacturers, the ex cellence of whose goods have given them a commanding position in trade, is the great firm of Githeu <fc Kcxamer, whoso exhibit here is ono of special merit— peaches, pears, apples, and vegetables of various kinds are turned out of their cans tasting as fresh as if they were just plucked from the orchard or culled from the vegetable garden. The aquariums form ono of the umst interesting features of this remarkable exhibition, and on my way down to see 1 stumbledV>ver two sucking pigs, one weighed about thirteen and the other about fourteen hundred , nice little for roasting, 1 said to my self, as 1 g<*t up rubbing my sliin and walked on to see the fishes; and there they were in great glass boxes swimming about just as nat ural os life I have not been fishing for a number of years, and l felt an uncon trolable desire to go fishing. One tank was filled with turtles—fine, fat looking fellows that would have made an a dermau’s mouth water; and here, too, were salmon—little bits of follows who survived the perils of a voyage front Columbia River, nearly four thousand miles, were swimming about just as live ly as if they were in their native stream 1 love to contemplate the briny monsters of the deep, said I to myself, half aloud, as I stood looking at them “Monsters of the briny deep,’’ remarked Mr. Doo little, who bad just come up ; “the mon sters of the briny deep, sir; not the briny monsters of the deep. What do you admire them for, sir?” he asked. “Decausc they make brains, sir,” I re plied, exultiugly. All the fish in the sea wouldn’t be sufficient to furnish some folks brains,” said Mr. Doollittle, looking down on me; and with a wink of bis eye, he said, “Look hero, jest a lew sLps this way ; ioek into that mod •‘Truth Conquers All Things.” est case, sir. Ef you noospaper rneu want brains, as most on you do, this is the stuff that’ll give ’em to you. There was a doctor, I forget his name, b#t he was a big gun, ho was, au’ he said there was more brains, clear grit, in one piut of wheat than tliore was in four bushels of onion I mention this he su'd, severe ly, ‘ because you want brains and this is the stuff to make ’em.” Here was a new article of manufacture, at least new to me. I bad heard of cracked wheat and crushed barley, wheaten grits. Bad oatmeal ; 1 had eaten them all; hot here was something new. And then I reflected that ttito wheat catered ‘ho largest proportion of brain and muscle food of any other thing. I tried it; it was palatable and sweet, uutricious and, to mind, supplying a great want in our domestic economy ; a healthy food that can be prepared in a few minutes and of whieh in the most simple manner a multitude of toothsome dishes can be made. The conclusion arrived at in the manufacture are the result of scientific analysis, and the ar*' tides furnished by the Cereals Manu facturing Cos., of Brooklyn are steam cooked white wheat crushed maize oats grits,barley and a compound called Gems of Harvest. If it has really within it the brain element let every editor and Centennial correspondent carry a small bag in his pooket and by the ef fect of their powerful example it may one dav become a nat oual food and bo to Young America what potatoes are to an Irishman or rice to a Cbina unn. Another magnificent display is from the g eat city lVrkopolis otherwise! known as Cincinnati. Several wealthy firms have joined in this exhib'.tion and it certainly reflects great credit, on the State which it represents. Here are casks with glass heads lull of the o' finest of salt pork. Hams done up in red, white, and blue satin, that lock very much like parlor ornaments. A 100 pounder roasted whole, with a ring ! in his noso and labeled ‘A Ring in Polk,” and sides of breakfast bacon such as every housekeeper outside < I the Church of Israel would like to have in her larder. This has been a red letter week,every day resembling a grand holiday. Hum ledro and Mrs. Pedro have been to see with us—nice people, those Pedn es—l like ’em ; nice people. Then Prince Oscar of Swceden is with us; and ex cellent young man, and healthy ; lie is going to remain with us several days.

Falling in that we fall back upon supervisors ami aldermen and when they give out we have an army of generals, colonels, majors, a and captains, with which we must contrive to get atong.

Ex-Vice President Colfax alsodroppcd in to see us. But the great event of the week has been the visit <f the Bin gor Sewing Machine employes.

Broadbrim. Gen. A„ If. Colquitt. Wo projioso to say a fow words in re* to this most excellent man, iu the way of biographical notice, that thoso who may not have been made familiar with his history may see what high claims his friends may set up iu his behalf to the popular regard and confidence. From his youth General Colquitt has been dis tinguished lor his morality and modest worth. He was the most dutiful and devoted of sons, the truest of brot.heis, and he never lost a friend. His whole life does not furnish a solitary instance uf p.uile, and hardly one of resentment or hostility towards a human being, ll is no wonder, then, that when the qual ties of heart such as this distinguished mao possesses, have been so ably sup ported bv judgement, prudence and dis cernment far above the suui ol ilnso traits which fall to the lot oi most meu, that he should have been the favorite and almost the pet of the public. Colquitt, though not born to fortune, spiung from parentage that placed him under bonds from his earliest youth to love and honor Georgia. He felt this, aud so long back in his lj!e, that those who remember him as a youth, think ot him as a model. In Lis early manhood the people looked upon him with bene • diction, and in spite of bis modesty and self abnegation they called him into their service. When quite a young man he received the nomination ot his party tor t he representation ol the Second bougi es si.mal district, aud he was elected by a most honorable vote. Declining a second term, be was unan imouslv and by acclamation renomiuat ed by the party convention, but be firm ly declined the splendid offeriug. lie gladly retired to tue walks of private life, and with zeal betook himself to the uupretending labors of a Georgia plant er. His people still insisting upon re taining his servijes, be was called to a seat iu tho State Senate, and then he was permitted to decline all public labor that witharew him from his coveted se clusion and pursuit. It was in that se. elusion that the message of his Country’* danger reached him. Without ado or flourish, he resolved wheie duty called fcttw ho htH go. He raised a line 00m pa*y and reported at headquarters * Atlanta, very early ia 1861, Bad wm mustered into service. The service was unlimited, and unqualified by any self* ish stipulations whatevor. Thia quiet solid virtue was recognized as it ever before had been, aud Colquitt was made Colonel of the 6th Georgia Regiment, and took to Richmond, we believe, the uery first “during the war” regiment that inarched from Georgia or the South, in fact. That regiment with its patient, bravo and conscientious lead or. whether as Colonel or Brigadier or Major-General, in more than thirty bat tles, prssed through all the trausuiigras tions of trial and blood. Tho hero of Manassas loved Col. CoD quitt and trusted him, and no responsi bilities, in Beauregard’s judgment, were too heavy to be laid by him on Colquitt’s shoulders. Who has not beard of the battle of Olustee,which saved our entire wire grass region lrom devastation ? Colquitt was as veritably the hero of that fight as Bragg was the battle cf Cluck amauga. Four years absence from borne, spent j in the pitiless storm ol “irou hail, anu the results of the war scattered to the wluds one of tiro finest pri/utc for tunes in Georgia, iuit poor as LSG7 found Colquitt lie was rich enough to -ouic with ready and Luoyaut tread, aiui lay upon the shattered altar ol his State his offering- when all was gloom —when stout hearts gave up and the groan was uttered, “What is (he use ol further ef lort?” this lion-hearted mat* was up and ready. He counseled action —he advised that no supine acquiescence in reconstruction outrage and ignominy should finish our ruin, and when amp ly purses were anpi'ilcJ to in vain toi tho means ol u last sLugglc for cur little all, Colquitt and Toombs, u.l honor to their names, came forward and made about all the cash contribution that could be got to make a fight on. It is now history and glorious hostory what good results ior us lollowcd the advice and labors ol Gen Colquitt and the noble band ol true men who (nought as he did and struggled with him. Af ter wo gained for the feteto its new leaso of life the review and surround ings were almost as discouraging as the signs of destruction which bloody and crue* war had scattered all around. Our industry seemed to be crushed, and all future lione of our agricultural recuper ation seemed fully. But the General hero again appears as the true a> and graceful friend of the interests of the State—and we can safely claim for him a zeal and intelligence sn his labors in behalf ol our greatest interest ihe agriculture ol Georgia —second to no other. This we kno./ is high praise, for where can we find mure energetic and devoted service than has been rendered l>y the friends of out planting aud fat ui ing industry. Fur six years or more General Colquitt has been [’resident ol the Stato Agricultural Society aud has given hiz most earnest efforts to build up and extend the usetulness ol that ▼aluublo most honorable organigatiou. Besides his labors for the society he has been ono of the leading spirits iu the great measure of direct trade between Georgia and the foreign markets. The solid practical sense of Gen Colquitt made him long since deduce from our situation tho vital fact that her agri cultural enterprise was hampered aud weighed down by restrictions and useless burdens which must bo removed Though ho well knew that millions ot host ile capital could boused, and wouid be, to thwart the patriotic endeavor to take crushing loads from our bacK.s tins fact did not daunt hiut and as President of the Board for tho Formation of Di rect Trade Geo. Colquitt has given proof ot tho highest statesmanship as well as the loftiest patriotic pui pose. Wc find this enlightened patriot al\ | ways earnest and always making a eon - j tral and important figure whenever and 1 wherever the best interest of his be- j level State are concerned. This is the , character of public men the State and the South most need We want and ix 11st have iu office influential men wl’o have the practical sense to evoke from unutilized resources ihe magn ficenfc Itv wards which may follow upon ener gy and intelligent eQor . Let us piece the proper estimate upon cur pubib men. Splendid oratory and ingenious dis~ quisition upon abstractions may uo for piping times of plenty aud prosperity, hut now wo want men who sec and feed the poverty of the State and who can taKe interest in the best measures for our restoration t old time affluence la Gen. A H. Colquitt we have the fines! 1 example ef such zeal and such ' .;u-in gence. In his private honor the ff'-ito i may look for unfailing guarantees that her interests will be protected aud i.t behalf of Georgia’s tiuest interest wt will find the efficient and erlighL-ned promoter of an extended prosperity.— Allanta Commo n weedth . Virtue carries with it, its own re ward In Advance. DEMOCRATIC I‘LATFORJI, Adopted by the National Demo cratic Couvcntiom, June 2S. We, the delegates of the Democratic party of tho United S'ates in national conv3i tion assembled, do hero declare the administration of the Federal Gov* ernment to be in urgent need of imuie diae treform ; do hereby cnjuiti upon the nominees of this convention, and of the Democratic party in each State, a zealous effort and eo operation to thin end, and do hereby appeal to our fellow eitiaene of every former § olitical con nection to undertake with us this first and most patriotic duty. For tho Democracy of the whole ooun* try we do heie re •affirm ou faith in the pcrmaooncy of tho Federal Union, our devotion to tho Constitution of tho United States, with its amendments uni' versally accepted as a final settlement of all tho controversies that engendered the civ.l war, and do here record our steadfast confidence in the perpetuity of republican self-government; in the su preuiacy of tho civil over military au* thority; iu the total separation of the church fine state for the sake alike of civil and religious freedom; iu the equality of all citizens before tho just laws of their own euactuient; in the lib erty of individual conduct utevexed by summary laws ; in tho faithlnl education of the rising generation that they may preserve, enjoy and trausmit these best conditions of human hapnitiess, and hope we behold the noblest product of a hun dred j ears nf changeful history; but while we uphold the*bond of our union ami the great charter ol these our rights, it behooves a* free people to practid that eternal vigilance which is the price of liberty. Reform is necessary to rebuild and establish it: the hearts ol'tho whole peo ple of the Union, eleven years ago hap pily rescued from the danger of a cor' rupt centralism, which after inflicting upon ten State* the rapacity of carpet bag tyrannies, lias honev-combcd the of fleers of the Federal government itself with incapacity, waste and fraud; in, fccted and municipalities with a contamination of misrule, and locked fust the prosperity of an industrious people in the paralysis of here times. Reform is necessary to establish a sound currency, restore the public crcd i>. and maintain the oati.ual houor. Wc denounce failure for all these elov- ; en years to make g:od the legal tender j notes, which are a changing standard of value in the hand of the people, and i the non-payment of which is a diare- ; gnrd of the plighted faith of the uation We denounce the improvidence which in eleven years of peace has taken from the pceplo in Federal taxes, thirteen time the whole amount of the legal ten der notej, and squandered four time this sum iu useless expense, without accu* uiulatiug auy reserve Ur their redemp tion. We denounce financial imbecili ty ami immorality of that party which during the eleven years of peace, has made no advance toward resumption, that instead has obstructed resumption by wasting ou- resources and exhausting all our surplus incJUie, and while annu ally professing to intend a speedy return to specie payments, has annually enact ed fresh hindrances thereto. As such a hindrance we denounce the resump tion clause of the act of 1575 and wc hero demand its repeal. Wo demand a judieit us system of preparation by pub lic economies, by official retrenchments, and b y wise finance which shall enable tho nation to assure the whole world of it perfect readiness to meet any of its yrow'sea at the call of the creditor enti tledtopaymcnt. We believe sucha system will be devised and above all entrusted to competent hands for execution, creat ing at no timo an artificial scaroity of currency and at no timo alarming the public mind into a withdrawal of that vaster machinery of credit by which ninety.five per cent of all business trans actions aro performed, a system open to the public and inspiring general confix dcnco would from the day of its adoption bring hclaing on its wings to all our harrassed industries and tot in motion the wheels of commerce, manufac/ t.ures and mechanical arts, restore cm I ployuicnt to labor and remnv iu a\l its national sources the prosperity of tbe people. Reform is necessary in the sum and and mode ol Federal taxation to the end that the capital may bo set free from distress and labor lightly burdened. \W denounce the present tariff levied on nearly 4,000 articles as a masterpiece of injustice, inequality anti (also pre tences. It yields a dwindling not a ! yearly rising tevenue ; it lias impover ished many industries tosubsid a* a few; it prohibits imports that we might pur- i : chase the products of American labor ; ! ;t has degraded American commerce i from the first an inferior rank upon the 1 l.igir seas, it has cut down tho sales • f !

We denounce the policy which thus discards the liborty loving German and tolerates the revival of the coolie trade in Mongolian women imported for immortal purposes, and Mongolian men hired to perform Servile labor contracts, aud demand such modification of the treaty with the Chinese Empire or such legislation by Congress within a tutioii limitation as shall prevent the further importation or iuiuiigraiiau of the Mongolian race. Reform is necessary, but can never be effected but bv making it the con trolling issue of the elections, and lift* mg it above the two false issues with which the office holding class and tho party iu power seek to smother it—the false issue with which they would seek to enkindle sectarian strife in respect to the public schools, of which tl*e estab lishment aud support belong exclusively to the several States, and which tho Dumojratic party has cherished from the foundation, and resolved to main* tain without partiality or preference for any class, sect, or creed, and without contributing from the treasury to any ; the false issue by which they soek to renew the dyiug embers of sectional bate between kindred peoples, once unnatu rally estranged, but now reunited in ono indivisible republic, aud common destir y- Reform is necessary in the civil ser vice. F.xpcricuce proves that efficient, economic conduct of the governmental business i3 not possible if its civil service be subject to change at every election ; be a prize fought for ut the ballot box ; a brief reward of party zeal instead of the posts of honor assigned for proved competency, and held for fidelity iu the public employ; that the dispensing of yutrouage should neither be a tax * upon tlie time of all of our public men, uor the instrument of their ambition. Here again the professions falsified iu tho per formance attest that the party in power can work out no practical or salutary re form. Reform is necessary even in the high* or grades of public service. The presi dent vice-president; judges, cabinet offi cers these and all others in authority are the peoples’ servants ; their offices •are not a priv. to perquisite, they aro a public trust. When the annals of this republic shew the disgrace and censure of a vice, a late speaker of the house of marketing his rulings as a presiding officer, three senitor* pro • Citing secretly by their votes as law mtk kers five chairmen of the leading corn* mitts of the late house of representatives exposed in jobbbing a late secretary of tho treasury forcing balauoes in tho publio aocounts a late attornoy-Gcncr al misrpropriating publio funds a sec retary of navy enriched or enriching friends by por centages levied off tho profits of contractors with his depart men an ambassador to England censur ed in a dishororable speculation the president’s private secretary barely es caping conviction upon trial for guilty empolicity in frauds upon the revenge a secretary of war impeached for kigh crimes and confessed misdemeanors, the demonstation is complete that the first step in reform must be the people’s ohoicc of honest men from another par ty lest tho disiasj of one political organ ization in fest the body politic and thero by, making no exchange of measures and no reform.
