'EVERY few weeks we see in the public prints notices of .some new process or invention which is certain to revolutionize the iron trade If these new methods had achieved half that has been predicted lor them the trade would have been revolutionized to the point of demoralization lontr ago. The last movement in a revolutionary direc'ion has been the organization of a joint-stock company in Titusville to manufacture iron with petroleum as fuel instead of coal. Iron smelted with petroleum for fuel in Louis has shown considerable saving in cost, while the iron produced has been of a superior quality. It is thought thatrefuse matter from the crude oil, which is now considered as almost worthless, will be as available for fuel as the oil itself, and that a great saving will be effected here. The oil men of Pennsylvania have re cently formed a combination and devised an agreement not to sink any new wells for six months after Se tember 1, as the market is somew overstocked just now, and what with checking production and revolutionizing the iron trade they certainly ought to succeed in keeping upj)rices.

NEXT Wednesday the Democratic and Liberal Republican State Conventions will assemble in Syracuse, New York, and inaugurate the political campaign in that State by nominating candidates for (State officers aud Presidential electors. The two Conventions will meet and deliberate separately, maintaining harmony of action through committees of conference. Having by this means come to an agreement respecting the State and electoral tickets, the tickets agreed on will be nominated by each Convention. According to present indications both Conventions will be composed of able and noted men, strong in their own localities and esteemed throughout that State. Both Conventions will be actuated by the same motive—to advance the reform cause and promote the success of the Cincinnati-Baltimore Presidential ticket.

WE think it hardly in good t&ste, to say the least, to turn Methodist camp eetings into Grant mass meetings but if the Methodists can stand it we can. At a meeting of this description held at Sterling, Mass., on the 23d inst., the Rev. Dr. Webster, presiding elder of the Charleston District, South Carolina, "urged upon every member of the Methodist Church to go to the polls and secure the re-election of Gen. Grant." Then another clergyman (name not given) said "if Greeley was elected the lives of carpet-baggers would not be worth a straw." We are sure that if intelligent Methodists will seriously consider the probab results of such appeals as this, of such a mixture of religiou and poiitics as this, they will agree with us that it is hardly desirable in the interests of either.

IT i« perfectly natural that the deepest interest should be felt by both parties in the eauipaigu now going on in Maine, because not only is that the first State where the vital energy and winning qualities of Liberal Republicanism, unembarrassed by side issues, will be fairly tested, but the result willeixdrt a prodigious influence upon the Presidential eleotiou. For these Teasonseaoh party is doing its utmost to carry the State, and Maine never before listened to so furious a political cannonade as now reverberates along it3 shores and among its monu* taliic.

A NOTABLE personage has just died— Mr. Augustus Smith, King of the Scilly Islands, of which there are 140, although only six are inhabited. Mr. Smith was a wealthy and crotchety Englishman, who in regard to government had notions' of h?s own which he wished to carry into practice, and so he became lessee of the Scilly Islands, under the oounty of Cornwall. He thus became King of about two thousand subjects, most of whom were a lot of peasants, for the islands are poor and unfruitful. With a court of twelve men he ruled the land, readjusted the relations of land and people, and attended generally to their moral, social, and religious status, although in the latter item he was not very strict. He made the children go to school, and in every particular the inhabitants had to obey him almost as if they were slaves. Once he packed ofl all the residents of one of the islands, and turned it into a deer park, but in recompense he gave the poor people better accommodations than they had even had before. At first he was greatly disliked, but when the islanders came to see that his rule was wise and beneficent, and that they greatly improved under it, they learned to like and respect him, and at his death he was much regretted. This is probably the first king who has borne the name of Smith, at least in modern times, and it is not likely he will have a successor to his title.

Ante-Mortem Generosity.

One of the richest of the rich men of New York is distributing his fortune among the people 1o whom he had intended to will it, reserving only sufficient to insure himself a comfortable income. A very sensible plan is this. It avoids all danger of family dissension arising from contesting a will, puts an end to merely mercenary affections, insures gratitude, and largely increases the happiness of several people some years earlier than gifts by bequest would have done. This ante-mortem generosity is almost peculiar to Ameriea. The system of entail would practically prevent it in Erffeland, if it were desired. In France, the Revue des Deux Monclns notices the custom as a phenomenon of American character. Xearly all our endowed schools and colleges owe much of their possessions to living benefactors. London's greatest charities are the result of the gifts, during his life-time, of Peabody. Wm. B. Astor has just donated $100,000 to the Astor Library "for present neces ities." These are all gratifying proofs of the true generosity which gives without waiting for the time when what it gives will be worthless to itself.

HEAVENS! here's another! We have Already mentioned that at London, Ohio, on the 24th inst., Miss Matilda Fletcher made a speech for Grant. Now, from Hillsdale, Mich., comes the thrilling information that on the 21st inst., Mrs. Hazlett addressed a large caucus, mostly of ladies, in the same behalf. There is another coincidence. Miss Fletcher (according to report) handled Sumner, Trumbull, Schurz and Greeley, in a powerful manner." So Mrs. Hazlett is stated to have "abused Sumner, Schurz and other traitors to the Republican party." Mr. Trumbull and Mr.

tGreeleyappear

to have escaped excoria­

tion at Hillsdale. So glad

OF three hundred German voters at Oconto, Wisconsin, only seven are for Grant.

Carpet-Baggers— Results of Their Rule. Of course, there is a great deal of loose talk about the reconstruction and regeneration of the late slave and now free States. Of course, they are not to be restored to the full flush of a new prosperity by Mr. Henry Wilson's speeches to the freedmen, or by any spangled tirades about the value of liberty. The prosperity of a State is determined by statistics, and these frequently are not dull reading. If you look into the census report of 1860, and find that since i860 there has been a decline of one-fifth in area of improved lands in States uuder the eontrol of car-pet-baggers and freedmen mainly influenced by carpet-baggers if you find in the same States a decline from one-third to two-thirds in the valuation of farms— that is one fact. Then if you find in States which have been comparatively free from carpet-baggers, say Kentucky, Virginia, Missouri,

Arkansas,Tennessee-

States which were the most wasted by the war—if you find in these hardly any decline—that is another fact. Kentucky is an illustration. Her valuation of land has advanced from $291,496,955 to $3il,238,916. South Caro lina has had a government in which carpet-baggery has been the positive and the old white element the negative quantity and lands there have fallen in value one-third since 1860. In Kentucky, since that year, the improved land has run up in acres from 7,644,208 to 8,108, 860: in South Carolina there has been decline of one-third. South Carolina has been governed mainly by the political agents of the Grant Administration Kentucky has governed herself in the old-fashioned way. Kentucky blooms like a garden—South Carolina promises, unless there is a great change there, to lapse into a desert. This proves^ if it proves anything, that meddlesome interference with the social affairs of a State maybe utterly ruinous that guardianship like that which the General Gov ernment has extended to its wards is as are leading strings for a boy of teu years and that if you run States in the'interewts of a party, you will soon tun them to discouraging decay.

The facts all point one way. Consider Tennessee for instance That State, in 1868, through a coalition of Liberal Republicans and Democrats, thoroughly freed itself from carpet-bag domination. What is the result? At once there is an increase in the area of improved lands— an increase which has been making progress ever since. Compare this with Georgia, where, duriut the same period, the area of improved land has steadily diminished. It was 8,000,000 in 1860—it was 6,800,000 iu 1870. Such is the result of Bullockism, which, we take it, is the fall flower of baggery. So in Missouri, where they have had universal amnesty and Gratz Brown, the improved acres ran up in ten years from 6,246,881 to 9,150,615. Put this against Alabama, where the area of cultivation has been reduced by one-fifth! Land goes up in vialue In Missouri in the ten years from £230^632,126 to $S92 908,047—it goes down in Alabama from $175,000,000 to $67,000,000 in the same time!

WE have not hitherto thought that there was any occasion for the Grant people in Massachusetts to be alarmed about carrying that State. But it seems that the general panic has reached even there. They considered it necessary in their convention at Worcester, yesterday, after renominating Governor Washburne for Governor, to cast about for means to secure all the odds and ends of faction in the State to help elect him. They adopted a prohibitory liquor law resolution, and one squarely declaring in favor of woman suffrage. Whether they will gain or lose more votes by this expedient remains to be seen. The resolu tions were on the whole, with these exceptions, more wordy than significant. One of them had the bad taste to abuse the Liberal ticket, not followiugthe good example set by Dr. Loring, who made a long speech without accusing Mr. Greeley, Mr. Sumner, or Mr. Trumbull of a single crime.—N. Y. Tribune.

WE publish elsewhere this morning a letter from Louisville, giving an account of a very remarkable conversation with Blanton Duncan, the self-set-up leader of the so-called straight-out Democratic movement. In this interview .Duncan is, by a series of questionings, made to confess the real character of the movement, or rather his own intentions in originating it. He confesses that his object is to defeat Greeley, and that he means to do this at the expense of electing Grant. His leaning through the whole of the conversation is toward Grant, and at one time he not only expresses a warm personal liking for him, but pays him a very high compliment.— Cincinnati Commercial.

It is a mark of the unsuccessful man, that he invariably locks his stable door when his horse has been stolen. Tnis sort of wisdom never thinks about- bodily health until it is gone. But just as much as any disease has become seated, the power of the system to resist and throw it off is weakened hence time is £11 important. For dyspepsia, all diseases of the liver, stomach, skin anil kidneys, and all that begin in vitiated blood, do not wait until the trouble is confirmed, but attack it by a timely use of DJR WALKEK'S CALIFORNIA BITTERS.
