Ex-Gorf William Sprague of - Rhode Wand, This statement is 5 selected! out from- among many, because it seems to us to be the fairest and moat authentic, and to afoul the flagrant scandals which hare been gathered around this un- happy affair. That the whole affair was one of those unpleasant domestic ,;-t, nii 1 riiiii ri yv iiii ii iiiiv 11 l inn ii&in been made public,, is plain. But as the conduct of Oor. Rprague himself, pro duced it so the publicity was forced by his noisy conduct on the streets of the Tillage where the scenes occurred. The other publicities followed almost as a matter of necessity, from the voracity of the newspaper reporters. It is not our nurnose to diacuss the action of the Anrn rt!pa rnnrned. Our re- K . aV gard for all the persons concerned would preTent it.

We may aa well add that we do hot believe anything in the scan dal, as to the relations between Senator Conkling and Mrs. Spraa;ue, but do be lieve that he has undertaken, possibly at times with some imprudence, to aid in securing her interests; j Dr. Luke P. Blackburn, just, elected Governor of Kentucky, i the person who ' waa accused during the early part of the war of attempting to send to northern cities trunks containing clothing inlected' with yellow fever. When approached lately on theBubject he answered: "The statements are lies, I don't care a d n for all the Re publican comments in Christendom." But it is said in Kentucky that when the subject is broached, upon occasions, he has asserted that a "physician, by his knowledge of disease and medicine, has the same right to slay an enemy as a General has with an army and ammu nition." " From this, If true, it is to be inferred that the new Governor of Ken tucky has rather limited information on the subject of belligerent rights, and the privileges of non-combatants.

Something like two week? ago the newspapers announced one of those oc currences peculiar, to southern politics, tnougu in no manner diuereut in es sence from hundreds of others which have either bee 1 defended or apologised for or denied. It seems that the Demo cratic party in Yazoo county, Missis sippi, divided into two parts, one called "independent" and headed 1 by a per fectly reputable Democrat named U. M. Dixon, and the other being the old and regular shot-guo thing. The Dem cratic committee of the county "insti gated or countenanced a mob ot some 400 er 500 armed and mounted men, who threatened to drive Dixon and his associates out of the county, f they did not withdraw and leave the field to the iscmocrauc canumaies. as the meu duction of wool to each sheep was only . . . m. were desperate and threatened violence, 1.73 lbs., the Calculation being based The Chicago Inter Ocrat ays, in a Dixon was obliged to withdraw from on the 490,000 sheep.

The mob ihen threatened crease of a good herd of ewes is about doers that believe evil of Senaor Conk to compel all independents to pledge SO per cent annually, but the actual lin and the noble wife of ex-iovernor their support to the Democratic party, increase in North Carolina was not Sprarue. We commend thu editorial or they would burn their property if taey reiusea. we quote the Demo- cratic version of the affair. This proceeding, like in kind with . hondreda of other which have occur red in thU state and in the south, is nude the occasion of reprobation and denunciation on the part of the Demo cratic pre?.

In all this period right in lTl 7.,' r when the basest passions were regnant, when diabolical phrenzy pervaded 'the press and the hustings, and reigned in its meanest audacity, we donot remem ber that the Star took pains to denounce it. :. . ' "-V-V Why this ferocity now? . Possibly a few extracts ' may furnish a clue to this "new policy." Aa follows: "The" rad icals are trying to make rartifnl tint nt I t . it.'-' -. Again: "There can be no better campaign document for the stalwarts. It matters not how freely and prompt ly and unreservedly the southern peo ple and papers may denounce the Mis sissippi : outrage, the northern people will only learn of the crime committed against the rights of a freeman and an elector." And again: "We are clad to see that many decided Democratic paper, like the Batimore Bulletin and Atlanta Constitution and Vicksburg Herald, and Louisville Courier'Journal are speaking out boldly in condemna tion of the Yazoo plan of protecting free speech and guaranteeing liberty to freemen." . Is it then a fact that this article was manufactured for northern consump tion? and at a hint from the national Democratic headquarters? It is to be read on the stump in Maine and Ohio to Show the temper of the southern Democracy in regard to free elections? Or is it the doctrine on which the elec tions are to be held in Mississippi, South Carolina and Louisiana? . Let us have an answer. Why is it that thejfiar, haTing been silent for more than ten years, while outrages aud atrocities were being committed right under its nose, right within its I T 1 A.

Worse onenseS'Were committed iu this state in 1870 by those cowards who rode around in the night time and in night gowns and masks, than have now bee a committed in this distant. and excoriated YazoO. We can give the answer. The distant mutterings of the northern sky, and the flashing gleams of light portending northern anger, is the caue of this change of tone. How much of hypocritical affec tation there is in the performance, may appear in the progress of the canvass. DOG 8 AKD SHEEP. By the census of 1870 it was shown that there were 490,000 sheep in North Carolina. People who deal in statis tics believe that there were really many more than that. There were also shown by that same census to be in the state 62 concerns for the manufacture of woolens. It was shown also that there were made in the state annually 100, 000 yards of casslmeres and doeskins, betides all the clothes and other articles I made by hand from woolens, and not taken into account. The average pro - I more than 20 per cent. Allowing the increase to be 20 per cent for nine years and we ought to have something near a million sheep in the state. This is a Urge industry. ; There are no mean nf kning rer- tainly the number of dogs iu this state, but there are 4SO taxed in this city. and those who know about it think that not half are taxtd. Sothertareproba bly 1,000 dogs in this city of about 50,. 000 people. This is one dog to every twenty persona. The tame rata applied to the state would give 500,000 dogs to the whole state. But as the old aayiag U nhal eTery tick saaa has t dog and crtrj poar man has sertn,t there art pibahly amors dogs U the state than there are sheep.

He says "TheUxonall dogs, more than one to each tax rjer, has perceptibly .di minished the number of werthleaa curs." Now thia is a 8tate of Uungt whfch uon oucntt to do it There is now no shrd of a deg law in the state.: It costs about 37 cents each annually to keep a sheep, but it costs as much to keep a dod as it does to keep a hog. Three quarters of all the dogs in the state are miserable curs, untrained and vicious, anjl nuisances to the neighbor hoods, andl even to the owner?. , If the ' I . ..

The average farmer migU keep a hundred which xould range on his out lying landj giving him a net iicome of more than a.hundred dollars. By and by instead ef the intolerable nuisance of a million yelping, snarling :urs, our production of an article valuable for food and clothing and which caa always be turned, into money, would be in creased ten times. Let us elect a legis lature next time which has pluck enough to take a step in favor of the protection of sheep husbandry,' and against the dog monopoly. . It they can devise nothing better let them pass the Mis sourilaw, which imposes a Leavy tax on all the dogs about a place, but one. Let anti-cur-dog and prosheep be' one of the. issues. HECOMdENDINO DEMOCRATS ,TO OFFICJ5. We have ou several occasions refer red to the fact that certain leading Re publicans were in the habit of recom mending Democrats to office under the I United States irnvurnmirit. I . . A, Bat it has with an application for the position of route agent on the railroad. His peti tion was signed by five of the most prominent Republicans iu the city, and three of them were officeholders, elected by a Republican constituency, i How long is this going te continue, is a ques tion that our Republicans should ask themselves. Next year the people will again be requested to vote lor certain candidates. Can we ask men to vote the Republican ticket and for Republi cans, who, as soon as the election is over and our ticket is succesul, these very men who are now seeking Repub lican votes, turn to and use fceir offi cial positions to get Democrats ap pointed; for the petitions we refer to were signed by these Republican, with their official signatures. Now; we in tend to let the Republican puy know who these men are that are tsaisting Democrats to get office, and rom this time out we intend to publh their names. Let the shot strike wlere they may, friend or foe. We owe it to our party to perform our duty, ant we will 1 do it. And they need not objxt U it.

Abe ltepuD- licans will say in very significant Cones mat iue mere iaci 01 air, nayes Deing from Ohio is not Rnfficient to nrevent them from supporting Mr. Sherman for the i position of Chief Magistrate of the nation. Ohio is the name of a certain; portion of the territory of the United States a part of this great gov eminent and because a man happens to hail from that particular spot is not sufficient , to disqualify him for the candicacy, and the National Republican had better .find some other cause for opposing Mr. Sherman, and 'not fall back on . the old confederate secession doctrine of state rights, George Wash-. iogton, Mr. Jefferson, Mr. Munroe, Mr. Madison were all from Virginia, almost consecutively. They were among the ablest statesmen of thei&day, and were available for their party, and the same causes that led to their selection as candidates should lead the Republicans to nominate Mr. Bhermsu, As President Grant is now out of the race, having declined to enter, we shosld all go in and give Mr. Sherman a unanimous nomination. , The National Republican iays: , . "Did it ever occur to the admirers of Secretary .Sherman and wa ara among them that it is scarcely probable that the Republican party will give th; Presidency for two consecutive terms to two statesmen of the state of OhioT There are precedents for the re-election of a President for a second cossecutive term, but none, since Virginia ceased to be the mother of Presidents, for hon oring a second statesman from the same state until some other of the sisters of the family had been recognised. Let the sweetmeats be passed around." . We will bat a bottle of wine that the fellow who wrote that article for the Republican has the gout from eating too much sweetmeats already, and ho could not tell, when he wrote the article, whether he was from Maine or Texas.
