The fastidious young lady who came tripping into the cabin in New York, with head up like a cow 1n the corn, and gaudy eolors flying from her, making her look more like a revolving Spanish clothes line than & human being, looked reslly worse than poor Bridger in the steerage after inha - ling a few whiffs of the sea breeze that swept the decks of the “Anglia.” It is almost impossible to get a civil answer from some people at sea. Sailors, as a class, are crabbed and peevish, and gen erally profane. All this is obtained freely in their profession. The sea is rough and makes men rough. I felt like swesring just a little myself one day, when, crossing the hurricane deck from the bridge to the forecastle, a splash of heavy cold salt water struck me square in the tace and knocked me down, drenching me to the skin. No wonder then that sailors are rough. : The “Anglia” had been puffing and sailing ten days and nights through an ever changing sea, now gently gliding through a dead calm that made the tace of the sea appear like a vast mirror, and occasionally encountering a storm that rocked her so that her bowsprit points were now to the zenith and then to the bottom of the ocean. The passengers had become pensive, and settied down as if determiped to make the best of & bad selection. =

It was early in the morning of the 12th of April. The weather had been unusually favorable for this season of the year, and we had inade not less than 300 miles a day, and had even made as high as 360. Frisco was up early on this particular morning, pacing the deck and looking back in the direction of home, and almost wishing to be there, when “land to the starboard"” greeted his ears. It came from the watch up in the rigging, and was quickly passed from one to another, till the whole ship se¢med to ring with the glad words. : : Oh! what a change was there in the looks of everybody. Even the sailors seemed to step more quickly in the pertormance of their duties; and the faces of the officers put on a more joyful expression. It was not many hours until we came in plain view of the bigh promontories that rise and stand like mighty battlements on the northern coast of Ireland. The Anglia put in at & small harbor called Mo-. vville, and here we got a view of a part of the Emerald Isle. It was only a glance, however, for as soon as a few passengers were transferred and the pilot came aboard, we were off again. Glasgow was yet 24 hours ahead ‘of us. The day following found us winding up the Clyde. Here was scenery that no human artist could paint. I had seen the mountains &nd rich valleys of California, and supposed nothing in the world could be so beautiful ; but when my eyes rested and ‘feasted on the beauties along the Clyde that bright April day, I whispered to myself that even YoSemite, with all its mag‘nificence, must yield the palm to Scotland. The land ison a gradual slepe as far back as the eye can reach, and away in the dis. tance rise hills and mountains in bold relief. The grass covered the earth as a. green mat, variegated by a bunch of flowers here and there. The grass is more thrifty, and uncultivated flowers more beautiful and common than in this country. All vegetation seems livlier. Along the banks were magnificent residences, ‘where alt and nature seemed contending for the rivalry. Here was the residence of some distinguished peer of the realm, and there the ruins of some ancient castle, besutiful in decay, whose inmates had passed from life's active scenes 500 years ago. Ido not wonder that all Scotchmen are proud of their country. How glad they were to see their native shores again. Old men stood trembling, bending over the railings of the ship, weeping for joy. Some of the passengers had been in America twenty years, roaming about with ‘varied fortunes, and now they were again breathing the air of Scotland—sacred to them by a thousand recollections. At 10 o’clock a. m., April 13th, Frisco gathered. ‘up his box of paper collars, night shirt, gingham umbrella and toothpicks, and. after allowing one of the Queen’s officers to inspect him, even to turning his pocket wrong side out; he glided along the gangway of the ship, and thence into the streets of Glasgow, with the air of a foreigner. Glasgow has hackmen just as well as New York, and they are less im: | pudent. _ Another thing I noticed jmmediately on getting into the streets. There was none of the rush and hurly-burly among the people there that characterizes our cities: A finely dreseed coachman came up to me and kindly asked if he or his conveyance could be of any service. I jumped in and was soon in the dressing room of the Queen’s Hotel. Glasgow is a large stone built city of 600,000 people, handsomely located on the Clyde, and can . be approached by the largest ocean steamers. The river is not much wider than some of the streets, but has a deep chan-. nel, and sn extensive shipping is carried on even in that narrow stream. It is the greatest manufacturing town in all Scotland. Ships do not go further up than Glasgow. It enjoys an extensive foreign trade,and is celebrated for ship building, this alone giving employment to thousands. Greenock, a city twenty miles ‘below, exceeds it, however, in this inter‘est. Glasgow is one of the finest cities I ever saw. The strects iy paved with Tegulations. “There are no less than five beiag printed in good type on excellent

stout paper.. I visited-the office of this paper, and was surprised to find such fine extensive rooms and such good printing facilities as it enjoys. It has a large corps of able editors, and is regarded second to no paper in Scotland. I never saw so few idlers in a large city before. Every body seemed to be industrious. There seemed to be plenty of work for mechanics, and I did not see any of those ragged paupers I expected to fiod in & European metropolis. The wages of a street sweep is about sixteen shillings, or about $4.00 per week, and other work is paid proportionately well. There is not a single house of prostitution in Glasgow. There is a grog shop on every corper. They call them “spirit houses,” and strange to say, & drunken man 18 but seldom seen. Whiskey made of rye is the main drink ; the-women drink as commonly almost as men. Habitual drinking is not looked down upon there as in this country. ' All classes imbibe more or less, and this is undoubtedly the greatest curse that afflicts beautiful Scotland. This desire for stimulants may be .the effects of climate. If it were possible to transfer enough of our Jersey lightning to quench the thirst of Glasgow one week, it would do_more than a thousand Goughs. It would kill nine tenths of the citizens if they partook a 8 freely of it as they do of their favorite usquebaugh. They go it straight, and a full gill it takes to make & single drink. Scotch whiskey is the best in the world, and, there being no duty on it scarcely, it is cheap and within the reach of all. Passing down Argyle street on the night of my arrival iu Glasgow, I saw a large ctowd gathered in front of & public build"{ﬁng, singing psalms and hymns. Istopped. A stranger come up and asked me in re. gard to my soul. Said he, “Jesus is abroad in Scotland.” His face beamed with joy as he spoke, and soon he invited me up stairs to their meeting. I went, and a more earnest revival I never witnessed than the one in progress there. It was under the auspices of the church of Scotland, (the Presbyterian), and reminded me of & Methodist revival in America. old and young were shouting,and a more impressive scene I never witnessed. Hun-. dreds were in attendance, and I begun to think all Scotland was going stark mad on religion. I was gladly surprised, however, an'd;began to realize that although an ocean and 8 continent lay stretched out between me and home; yet was I in the midst of the earnest worshippers of God, who felt a keen interest in my spiritual and temporal welfare. In Scotland pretty good English is spoken, so that an American experiences no trouble on this score. In some sections, especially in the Highlands where the Gallic dialect is spoken, however, you might as well try to decipher Egyptian caricatures as to try to understand them. The Scotch are great students. They enjoy good schools, and the highest premium is placed on education. The questiou there is, “What does a man know?’ It takes the place of “What has he got?” in this country. Although nominally under the English. crown, to which they are scrupulously loyal, yet they enjoy almost the broadest liberty. Scotland is next to a Republic in government. The climate is exceedingly healthful. ' The people are great vegetarians and large eaters. Oat meal cakes and porridge take the place of wheat flour in this country. I thought their butter and cheese tasted eweeter than ours; it niqy have been a delusion; possibly an opinion formed on a hungry stomach, for I was dreadful hnngry after being at sea.’” Scotch potatces too seemed sweet and mealy somehow. One more vegetable I must mention right here before I forget. The “lasses” that tend the shops, and wait on the üblgs, and move in the crowded thoroughfares of that metropolis, are by no means its least attractive feature. They are beautiful without paint. The climate seems to do for their chieeks what carmine powder does for some cheeks this side the water. Walk up Buchanan street at glowmin, (toward. ‘evening), and you are liable to meet as many and as fashionably dresscd ladies as on Broadway, New York. They are tastefully .dreseed, and seem to haye their share of good common sense. Butl am a genuine American, and would rather have one nice, little, pale-faced, red-haired, crosseyed Hoosier “gal” than all the bonny “lasses” of Scotland. - ~ Haw ParcH, Ang:-;, t 29th, 1872.

THE Seymour Democrat has now taken down the Grant and Wilson flag and hoisteg:,tbe names of Greeley and Brown. In its announcement of its action, it says: " *“Our readers have known our sentiments well. We were opposed tv the principles set forth in the Greeley and Grant platforms; we were opposed to both Grant aud Greeley, and believed that the condition of the politics of the country had become deplorable when the people had to choose between two such men a 8 Grant and Greeley. : L “We had hopes that the Louisville con. vention would give us semething better; but the ablest opponents ot the Greeley movement have turned their backs upon it, and it has been left to the control of one-idead men like Blanton Duncan, and scoundrels like Will C. Moreau, and we no longer have any confidence in the Louisville movement.” During :the estrangement of the paper from the regular nominees of the party, the Grant organs were making a great blow, calling it that “able and sparkling journal,” &e. Of course the tune will be changed. :

THE most ma&:iﬂcent example of patriotic self sacrifice this country has ever furnished is tbat of General Grant, in the face of his heartfelt desire, consenting to occupy the White House & second term. Artemus Ward shedding the last drop of blood “all my able-bodied relations has got, and even sacrificing my motber-in-law if it becomes necessary,” wasn't a patching to it! * The heroism of the car-get-blgger who tears himself away from his humble home in Ohio and his salary of $lO per month for cleaning out livery stables, and_goes South to become Governor of s State for only $5,000 per year snd a stealageof only $lOO,OOO per month. isn't a circumstance to such pd 1 A this! Let us pray !—~New Albany L«!w-

CAMPAIGN NOTES. e “The Liberal Democratic majority in the North Carolina Legislature will be 24 on joint ballot. = : ' " The Grant organs have already begun to discuss. the probabilities of Mr. Greeley’s Cabinet. ‘ . o TrE Chatanooga Herald, a Grant paper, says Greeley hopes to beat us with his “low Dutch and red mouthed Irish.” . The office holders have their hands too deep in the people’s pocket: to conveniently clasp any thing over the bloody chesm. . . e H. Thoreson, of Northfield, the wealthiest Scandinavian merchant in Minnesota, #nd a life-long Republican, has declared for Greeley. ‘ ; James Watson Webb ‘writes a letter dated England, Jane 28, in which he caustically reviews Grant’s Administration, and vows his preference for Greeley. Captain George T. Anthony, & Federal office holder at Leavenworth, Kansas, politely refers to Senator Sumner as “a liar and a dog,” and to Schurz as “that dirty foreign pimp.” ‘ The “Christian Sage” is what some of the more devoted and pious of ‘the Grant flunkies now call their chief. Hell_hound Horace is their term of endearment for Grant’s successor, . -

. “Greeley torn all to Pieces and Thrown Away and Brown chewéd Up and Done Kor,” is the West Bend (Wis.) Democrat's caption to an sccount of a. Grant mass meeting in that place. Shouldn’t wonder! ! Ll o

Some of the subsidized papers in the Seventh District of lowa append to the name of John A Kasson for Congress, the words, “20 long 88 he proves himself loyal to Grant.” So there is still a doubt as to Kasson's loyalty to Grant. : President Grant, it is now said, has concluded that, in the event of a re-elec-tion, be can allow his present Cabinet officers, with one exception; to retire to private life.” This announcement will hardly save him from defeat. :

J. P. RAYNER, keeper 6f the Congressional restaurant in Washington, says: “I will make affidavit that I have seen Gen, Grant so drunk during the last year that he had to be put in bed. And not only once, but six or sever times.” :

~ HERE is what Senator Conkling says of the Irish: “Let the dirty Dnish go.. We don’t want the fighting, whiskeydrinking Irish in our party. It wasa bad day for us when the first Irishman put his brogan on American soil.” o LeT everybody take part in the coming campaign. Go and’ attend every democratic meeting that is held in your neighborhood. Talk with your firiends, and have them assist in rolling up & big majority for our candidates, county, State, and presidential. ‘ . It is said that the carpet:bag fraternity -are becoming somewhat unpopular in Texas, Governor Davis being decidedly so on:account of his bare-faced violation of State laws. The Legislature of that State .‘willl probably impeach bhim when it assembles this fall. = | :

Tln the short space of a single article the Albany Journal—late Tweed-Terwilliger organ—manages to speak of Mr, Sumner's letter as coarse, vindictive, shameful, arrogant, insufferable, rancorous, outrageous, dogmatic, wanton, violent, passionate, false, indscent, and essentially untrue. A LETTER to the Boston Post, speaking of Senator Sprague, of Rhode Island, says: “He will publish a letter in a few days defining his position, thus throwing the weight of his immense influenée in Rhode Island for Greeley and Brown, and, beyond a doubt, securing that State to the liberale.” S :

A WELL-ENOWN journalist who has traveled through and thoroughly canvassed the western counties of New York, believes that, with a little exertion, Governor Hoffman’s prediction at Baltimore—that Mr. Greeley’s majority in New York would be greater than the entire vote of Missouri—will be verified. R

. Tae Grant organs talk pretty to Democrats of principles in politics. What do they know about principles? No principle but the principle of plunder keeps their party together. Is there principle or consistency in a party that denounces civil service reform in Congress at:-Wash. ington and endorses it in Convention at Philadelphia ? - ‘ Forpey nays that radical editors who are averse to doing their own thinking and writing, are haviog:a holiday, in Pennsylyania, just at present. The Washington bureau furnishes them abundance of editorials, and “the small minded creatures whom God, for some inscrutable ‘purpose, permits to edit a large majority of our minor journals, can be consistent.”

LEEsBURG, although a small place, has some of the most consumate wags in its borders of any town in the State. A Grant and Wilson club was recently organized, and some mischievous scamp sent a burlesque account of it tothe Inter- Ocean, with coloring enough to it to pul% the wool-over the eyes of the editors, and secure its publication under the head of “Political News in Indiana.” The jocose correspondent starts out by saying that it *“was one of the greatest political triumphs ever achieved in the country!" 4Rev.” - Ross Beaty,“Prof.” D. Roudebush,“Lieut.” - H, Sarbough, “Maj.” Winfrey, “Capt.” 8. - 'White, “Dr.” Hawthorn, and others, are - spoken of as the officers and orators of the -occasion. Then he says, ‘the speakers | ‘were eacorted from the depot by the War ' saw Silver Cornet Band, followed by the eager thousands.,” He winds up by say- \ ing that "87thDemoc:tata ‘r:a:ot:nwl}eir allegianceé to their y and step| or- : wﬁ‘lii and signed Gﬁlr names to the Grant 'and Wilson club.” It is strange that the _editor of the Inter- Ocean did not see the “gell.” It is the blsc thing we bave seen lately, and the complete report may be found in the supplement to the sbove paper of the Imﬁm-‘—am Democrat. .

- From the LaPortc Argus. LETTER FROM COLORADO. Denver--=Crops=-= Indians--- Montana w s Soeneryy &es e : Dexver Ciry, Aug. Bth, 1872,3;§€ Eplror Araus:—l will-now try to com-. ply witha promise partiallly made beforel left Laporte. Bt e l - We arrived here on the morning of June 27th; coming by the way. of &{‘a{hsu City over the Kansas Pacific Railroad. There are two routes to Denver; the other is by way of Cheyenne, over the Union Pacific ‘R. R.,.and from Cheyenne qver the Denver pacific R. R., about 100 or 120'miles. The noted town of Greeley is about 52 miles. from here onthisroad. -~ . - t ‘ Denver is a city of ten thousand inhabitants, but they elaim twelve. Itisimproving moderately and contains some first- | class business houses and a goodly number '-1 of private dwellings. The city does: not look to e to be as large as Laporte but has twice as many business houses. They value the-lots at about.double and rentsare in the same proportion. The city is li\'ght-‘, ‘ed with gas, has the Holly water works, ‘also’ two miles of sfreet railroad which is 'sufficiently patronized to pay: The location is on the Platte river, a stream about "one-third the size ‘of the St, Joseph with three times the current. The town was originally laid out in what is called Wés‘t* Denver, but owing to a great freshet in 1864 Cherry Creek rose to such ‘s hight as to wash away some of the houses and among other things the safe containing the county records, and they have nol yet been able to find it. Since thattime East Denver has taken the lead, where about all the improvements are being made. * Denver is the capital of the Territory and from what: I can learn is and will evidently be the leading city. It is. emphatically a fast place, with all the fashions‘gﬁﬂ'.égy-le, of Chicago or New York; here also maybe found some as finé horses and carriages as you will see Bnywhere in the States. There are about a dozen of'livery stables which are supported principally by tourists who, like ourselves, are here for their health.— I should think there are mowin the city seven or eight hundred strangers and about as many more gone to-the mou,nta;ixi_s.' The city has good drinking water which is very essential. It is well"e‘irri’gated,"water running on both sides of the streets. - They are now building a High School building about like our own, at a cost I'should think, of some ﬁﬂy or six‘ty thouga;fd dqllaib.~ ao : ‘What shall I say of the farming here ?— Well, in the first place, they have no farms ;. they are all called ranches. Compartively speaking there is but little farming done here, My first impressions were that it was not a farming country, which is partly true, yot there are large tracts of land that are well adapted-to raising all kinds of grain, wheat, oats, barley and potatoes.— It is too cool of nights for corn, Mostall kinds of vegetables are raised in abundance. ‘The wheat and oats does not grow tall, not more than three or three-and s half feets/high. It is very even and thiek, the heads of fair size, and I should think the wheat would yield about 20 or 30 bushels to the acre, yet they say it goes as high as 40 to 50, and oats from 40 to 80 bushels, all owing to how well it is irrigated. The wheat will do to cut about the 15th or 20th of thismonth. ~ = ; S

It ig surprising how they ean run wafer from one high point to another. The land is quite 'rolling, very: much like that of Rolling Prairie, and you can 'not tell by looking. at the land . which way the water runs, it ié‘ 80 deceptive. ,Y-é‘u".'w‘il_l‘ be very positive that it is running up hill.- Neither can you tell anything about distance.— Denver is fifteen miles from the mountdins and it looks to be only three or four at furthest; Some have been so deceived as to attempt to- walk to them before breakfast. Pikes Peak is ninety miles distant and you can see it digtinotly. The top of it is covered with snow which looks not un-: like white elouds with. dark shades intermixed. Below the snowy range their appearace in the distanceis dark. You will observe with surprise the entire absence of dew and will experience with delight the rare healthfulness of the morning air pe-. culiar to this upland region—Denver being about 5,000 feet above the level of the gea. From 9 o’clock in -the morning till about 8 p.m. it is very warm; after that itis usually cool and the nights are very pleasant. lpiaa e e

We have had .a fine opportunity.to see the Ute Indians as they are camped about two miles out and are in the city every day. They have quite-a number of ponies and'have a few things to sell, such as buffalo robes, buckskins, lassoes made .of plaited buckskin, and s few furs. They receive rations from theGovernment which partially supports. them, though not entirely 1 should think. They are very peacea~ ble and quiet; no one is allowed to sell ihem whisky which accounts for their good 'behavior. We spent a short time invisiting their camp and ~learned all we could relative to them. The pioneersof thig country have no. particular love for them, but onzthe other hand; hate them, and the majority would like to see them exterminated. I must say that my ideas of the noble red man have been considerably lowered. They make no preparation for to-morrow and the camps are of the: most temporary character. = They have some eight or nine poles set around ina circle, all’ coming together at the top, which they cover with canvas, skins or brush. They make no ‘pretensions 'to cleanliness; sll they carefor is to exist. We have just returned from a trip of five days up in the mountains and I wish that I had more time to give you a descriptionof our trip, although it would hardly be possible, for language fails to give any one any ides of these mountains, We left Denver at noon and drove some 22 miles, 15 of which is on the Prairie. Here we come to- » small town called Golden, at theentrance of the mountains up s canon jusk wide enough for one team with places made to pass as often aa is necessary' Thereis n small siream foaming and leaping at your, side and on either side are the mountains from five hundred :to three or four thousand feet high, covered mostly with grass. and some timber. The entrance into the mountaing is very tedious ;a8 we are continaaly assondin 1t i nothng but olimb, slow walk snd you would think that on.

. Our Next Auditor of State. " The speech of Hon. John B. Stoll, last ‘Thursday night, was the most complete arraignment of the administration that has been made here during the campaign. ‘Mr. Stoll, besides posséssing great ability, is an honest man,—a trait that sticks out in full relief all over him. J. B. Brown, prior to lxzs apostacy, used to say that it was no #ouble to make a democratic speech—all that was nccessary was to tell the truth, Mr. Stoll illustrates the truth of Brown's statement, by bringing forward an array of facts that must have astounded, if they did not overwhelm his republican auditors. His arraignment of @rant was not abusiveé, it was sinmply a plain unvarnished tale of the wrongs that ‘the people have suffered at his hands. He ‘presented facts and figures, showing how the people have been robbed of millions of money. during the brief three years and a halfof/Grant’sadministration. He show-

ed how every opportunity toisteal, was taken advantage of, and the tracks covered if possible. He showeil that Grant’s trusted .friends and advisers, have ‘been, and are.still the most dishonest men of the nation. He told his auditors how that gredt and good man, Charles Sumner, was removed to give place to Simon Cameron, a man who had been branded a thief by Cgngress. In short, he showed that Gra®fhas not been trae toa single trust, nor has he kept a single pledge. His aims have all been selfish, and hisacts’ studied efforts to accomplish selfish ende. And to do this, he even stooped to the disgraceful attempt of bribery, as in the case of Carl Schurz, in the San Domingo scheme. L Lol i

‘Passing from this, for we have nct the space to give even a tithe of his masterly arraignment, he spoke of our State affairs,; . showing how a systematic system of rob-. = ‘bery had been carried on during.the rcpublican administration of affairs, and how since the government has been in the hands of Democrats, ‘thousands of dollars have been saved, and placed in the School .- Fund, that have heretofore gone intothe pockets of radical office-holders. John D. Evans, the last radical State Auditor, boasted of heing worth one hundred thou- - sand dollars, ‘when, before he came into the office he was not ‘worth five thousand. His salary did not make him rich—where did the money come from ? Mr. Stoll had promiged the people of Fayette two fv.ears age, economy and reform, he had‘come now to redeew that ‘pledge, and showed wherein the pledge was redeemed. Ile mady the same pledges for the future,and we are satisfied that the people believe kim, and that he will be elected next Oc- . tober. After ¢losing his speech-in English, Mr. Stoll made a few remarks in German which, judging from the frequent demonstrations of. satisfaction, were well received. o : . ~One of the features of the evening, was a brief speech from Hon. John 8. Reid, who, after giving Mr. Stoll a flattering introduction, declined the presidency of the meeting in favor of A. B. Conwell. Uncle Abe is now seventy-six years of age, - and is one of the living democratic connecting links between the Jeffersonian democracy and the great liberal democratic party of to day. We hope he will live to see Horace Greeley,” who is the ablest man that has been nominated sinée Jefferson, elected President.— Connersvitlc - Bzamaner, August 21. N

o A Strong Team. L Five ex-Mayors of Pittsburgh, Penn,,. namely : Sawyery Lowrie, Weaver, Morrison. and Drum, all elected by a Republican constituency, are for Greeley for President and Buckalew for Governor. This team we think will carry the talent, worth and ability of the great party of “mnoral ideas” to a victory that will bring peace.and pl’?nty to our hitherto distracted country. 'With a “cargo” of talent such as Schurz, Trumbull, Sumner, Greeley, Hendricks and Sandford E._ Church, of New York, the “gohiecle” can not fail of a successful trip.— Fort Wayne Sentinel = - P
