and one phrase, which could be caught up by his friends and used as A WATCHWORD For HIS PARTY. ‘This remark cannot truthfully be made con- cerning Gen. Hancock’s Setter. Here isa capital war cry: “A full vote, a fair ballot, and 2 fair count.” Herets another: “Let us cultivate friendship, not animosity.” Here is in substance another: “It is my duty” to. take care that the laws be, faithfully equally executed in parts of the - country’ alike.” The - first. reproves the. *. count of 1876; the second rebukes the leaders of the Repub- lican party, who cultivate animosity, not Sriendship; the third promises that the South shail not be an-Ireland under Gen.

NEW ORLEANS “CITY ITESt.” + Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, New Orteass, July 3.—The City Item (Independent Democratic) says: “These letters bear internal evidence of having been written by the candidates respectively. They Jack the peculiar polish of the sentimental phraseinongers who make language a cover to concen! the body of their thoughts. There is.a blunt honesty of purpose in these letters which places thein in marked contrast with ae formal acceptances of the opposing candi- ites.’ THE “EVENING STATRS” (anti-ring Democratic) says: “Gen. Hancock does not branch off into a disquisition of party polities nor discussion of specific qeasures. The Convention framed a plat- form for the party, and as the candidate of the party he stands squarely: on that plat- form. This isthe Democratic theory. The party, not the candidate, is the dictator. All the candidate is permitted to do is to give to the platforin the prestige of an exalted char- acter, a record of pledyes faithfully ob- served, and a reputation-for courage and Rockville, and Judge ability to Jead in the canvass and govern in the council. The platform of the Demo- vratic party is all the country wants. Gen. Hancock has all the qualities we have mentioned.” , THE “TIMES” (Democratic) says: “Gen. Hancock’s letter of acceptance is characteristic of the man. It is frank and without the suspicion of duuble-dealing. He accepts the platform which the Cincinnati Convention placed be- fore the American people as the creed of the Deniocratic party. Throughout the letter there runs a Jofty National spirit that will thrill the country.” THE “DEMOCRAT” (Administration grean) says: “The Democ- raey throughout the Union must now go to work zealously and in unison to achieve a brilliant triumph for the grand principles so eloquently enunciated by its staudgrd-bear- ers. There is not a day or an hour to lose. _ Every man is expected to do hig duty nobly. and unselfishly to- ward overthrowing the powerful par- ty which has nearly succeeded in stran- gling elvil liberty, and which is seeking to cen- tralize the Government, with the ultimate design of disrupting the Union.” THE “PICAYUNE” (Democratic) says: “It is as a Democrat e: pressing the sentiment and purpose of his party that Gen. Hancock declares the inviola- ility of those amenduients ‘to the Constitu- tion which embody the results of the War for the Union.” THE NEW ORLEANS “BEE” (French Democratic paper) says that it re- peats on this occasion what it said at the tine Gen. Hancock was nominated by the Nation- al Democratic Convention, viz.:- “The Con- vention could not havemade betterselections, Both candidates are an honor to the Demo- cratic party, and will insure its. success whilst being its glory.” THE “GERMAN GAZETTE” (Independent) speaks briefly of the letters, merely quoting what Hancock says of en- Torcing the Constitution and the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendinents as 2 warning to the Democrats of the South, and questions whether Hancock will be strong enough to stand up to his professions against the caucus control of the Southern Demo- erats, GEN.

Davenvont, Ia, July 29,—Harvestis about over, and it'seems to me a good time to write about crops, Before harvest, every .state- ment about the crops was only a surmise, withran ‘if? ‘the weather was favorable, etc., etc., toqualify it, Now the harvest is safely over, and one’ can speak with some certainty as to the result,—at least for small. grains. Our wheat has been considered, by some of our people,.as the most important, though itis doubtful whether the growing of wheat is as protitable to our people as that of some other products. Always at the approach of harvest stories fly about.the country of rust, drought, and other misfortunes to the crops, which it is always well to take with a grain of allowance until after. harvest. This year Was no exception, and from this section and that caine extra guod or very. discouraging reports of the wheat crop. This was doubt- less true of individual fields, for there are al- ways some wheat-fields only worth ‘their straw; but the wheat crop of Towa this year is fully upto the average, taking the State-as awhole. Theaverage yield of wheat in all States is set too high, and lowa is no excep- tion. There are exceptional tields which turn out as high as twenty and thirty bushels per acre, but the average yield of wheat in Iowa is only about fourteen bushels per acre.’ _Next in importance, though it should by right come first, is corn. Iowa and Illinois have always been noted asthe great corn States. Iowa will have the largest crop of corn this year she ever raised. Many people, even those who raise corn, havea mistaken idea as to the yield of corn racre. Jowa is aleatling corn State of the inion, both as. to quantity and quality, the best grade of Indian corn sold in: Europe being the “Iowa.” But the average yield per acre is only about forty bushels. his. is a glorious year forcorn, and many an Iowa farmer will go into 2 forte aere field this fall and husk out 4,000 bushels of corn, and_ they will have some large stories to tell of “big day’s huskings.” Corn is probably the only grain crop which willbe much above the this year,—its average yield this- average year being above fifty bushels, or nearly 20 per cent better than usual. The rains just before harvest in several sections of the State, notably the central, did more or less damage to the small grain, probably more to the oats and barley than to wheat, as the former always lodge badly ina severe rain-storm. Oats will be below the average, and barley possibly a very little be- Jow; while wheat is fully up to the average, both in quantity and quality. 5 __ Flax, another crop raised to some extent in Iowa, is increased in acreage this year. It seems to ime there is very little money in it It takés considerable care, especially if the weather should be wet after cuttinz; and the price for the seed is not high,—only a few cents higher than wheat. Until cutting time it makes very little difference, if the crop is on well-drained ground, whether the weather is wet or dry; but after cutting dry weather isbest. The yield is only about ten bushels per acre, the grain being raised in lowa only for the seed, which is manufactured into oil and oil-cake. The oil is used in this country, while the cake is mostly sent to Europe. Iowa will raise about 1,000,000 bushels of flaxseed this year. fs The season has been a favorable one for root crops. Potatoes especially will yield enormously. i" The hay crop is not much affected as to quantity by the weather; but a wet haying, as all know, is productive of bad hay. While there are small sections in this State where the hay is somewhat {njured, the crop, taken asa whole, both in tame and wild will be fully up to the average in quantity and quality. Warren Dorr.

DENNISOS, 1a., July 30.—The wheat crop in this part of the State is now being har- ve and is a grand success. It is not too “much to say that in the twéuty counties compris the western slope of Iowa the wheat will average twenty bushels to the acre. The corn crop will likewise be a great one, averaging ubout fifty bushels to the acre. Itis already out of danger of frost. MINNESOTA. Spectal Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Sr. Pau, Minn., Jaly 31—The Ploneer Press received the following crop reports to-day: ‘ridley—Harvesting in this town is under full headway.. Wheat is being cut, and promises twenty-five bushels to the acre, Other grain and potatoes are above the aver- age. Altogether, the farmers are expecting the best ecrep since 1860. The hay crop is also large, Harvest hands scarce at $3 per ay. 7 Felton—Harvesting in this vicinity will commence Monday: next.

Some fields west of here are reported as partially blighted. Farmers south and east of here state that their yield can be fairly stated as an average of ten to fifteen bushels per acre.

John Payne, of the Town of Ville, says he does not not exaggerate in stating that the wheat on his farm and Fergus Falls-are three others close hy will £2, thirty bushels per acre, and all No. Lif harvested without damage, and that wheat throughout the entire town will average twenty bushels to the acre.

Notes of the Gubernatorial Oanvass ’ ALABAMA, | Spectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasarneron, D. C., July $1.—There are excellent reasons for apprehension that there will be trouble in Montgomery Coun- ty, Alabama, at the election to take place on Monday. This county in 1S76 gave a major- ity of 3,878 for Hayes, At the Gubernatorial, election in 1878, when the Republicans had no ticket in the field, the Democrats polled 4,153 votes, it being a gain of 1,772 over their vote. of 1876. Recently the Republicans have been manifesting an intention to contest the county with the Democrats, and have made a pretty thorough canvass. Trustworthy white Republicans assert-that as a result they discover their old majority of 1876 is intact, and that not more than fifty colored’ Demo- crats can be found in the county. They as- sert that the story that 2 colored Hancock and English Club of 690 has been formed in Montgomery County is false. The, Repub- licans anticipate, of course, that .their votes will not be counted, but they have laid their plans to make known the extent of the e; ted fraud. They propose to have comm: tees stationed outside the poll-rooms (inside they will not be. permitted to-, £0) to distribute Republican tickets to men who will enter in squeds-of five or six, and cast their votes. The Committees will also keep tally-lists of these voters, so that any fraud may be made a. matter of future investiga- tion. To prevent the consummation of this plan, the: Democrats have adopted a plan as old as ASsop. It is embodied in acard which has been published over the signatures of the Chairman, L. A. Shever, and the: Sec- retary, James T. Wheatléy, of ~ the County. Committee. | This card sets forth that the Committee has informa- tion that the. Radicals, by threats insults, and abuse, intend to provoke thelaw- abiding and peaceful Democrats of the coun- try into actsof violence and retaliation. “'The object,” continues the card, ‘tot this conrse is te bring on a conflict if possible, in which the colored troops will fight nobly and suffer alLthe casualties. and the white bloody-shirt’ shri ts—Strobach, Buckley, ‘furner, May- er & Co.—will telegraph. the bloody details North to the bloody-shirt organs for the purpase of . influencing the result of the -National - contest.” - In view of this: stato’ of affairs, the Committee deems it its duty to.gdonish: our people to be upon their guarf&7Let us be prepared to resist violence, but: inno event must we re- sort to it except it beégame necessary in self- defense.” “E For the purpose of protecting their “col- ored friends” from violence, the Committee earnestly exhorts all Denocrats and Con- Servatives to. go the polls early and remain all day. ‘The plot of the Republicans to pro- .Yoke a riot, in which they are to sutfer all the casualties for the sake of stimulating Republican sentiment in the North, argues a degree of stalwart patriotism on their part quite unknown outside of Alabama, .

To-day a dispatch was received from Fre- mont stating that all doubt a5 to the man’s identity had been removed. Mr. Hooflan, resident of Fremont, and who was a’neigh bor of the Bender family in Kansas, and knows all about their old premises and arrangements, and their murders, inter- viewed the. prisoners, and identifies them both ‘as Bender’s. He first cailed on Bender in -his cell, and Bender acknowledged he knew him. Bender said his name was not Bender, and Tooflan gaid that he called himself Ben- der in Kansas at any rate. Hooflan closely questioned him as to his previous statement already published, particularly with refer- ence to the two murdered children; and when, he saw that he had caught himself in a lie he finally said that he helped to put two chil- dren under ground, and then he burst’ out ‘ crying and exclaimed: “I don’t care; G— d——’em, let them hang me and be damned.” When told that he must go to. Kansas he said he would kill himself rather. than Aa there. Hootian-showed him a plan of the , house and surroundings, and he said it was , correct, : ‘Mr. Hooflan next called on the woman, who said she knew him. “I never expected to see you any more. Don’t want to talk with you here. ‘We are captured at last and they willhang us. You know that that is John Bender, and there’s no use denying that any ‘longer. I am going to tell the truth. If ‘that don’t save me from hanging Vl haye to hang too. Lought to have told the truth from the _Start. I told them we would be caught if we came back this way on the main foad.. We were going back East; had a hard time among the Indians; hardly saw a white per- son. She was asked where the other child was ' buried, as only one was found, and’ she said, after asking Hooilan where one was discov- ered, that the other was buried in the south- east corner of the garden. Shesaid they had intended to cross over the’ Missouri Liver, ‘aud’ go back’ East, Young Kate and young John Bender were with a }team taking another road. They were to meet in Lowa, and then some one of the arty Was to go to Kansas and dig up $700 buried on the old Bender place. -. ‘The woman clainis she is not a Bender, but says Bender’s wife was left in the Choc- taw Nation, being wrable to proceed further, and that she died in 1876: = 5 description of the Bender place agrees with that of other persons who have been there. Officers are endeavoring to get on'the track of the rest of the party. 2 The matter will be thoroughly investi- gatedyand the parties will be taken to. Kan- sas for further identification, The affair is ‘creating intense interest here. In1873 State Senator York, of Kansas, brother’ of Dr. York, mysteriously disappeared, and upon inv ating the mystery his dead body “was scovered with ten or ‘twelve others on Bender's place. The Bender family -upon learning that.a vigorous search was being inade for Senator York, fled before the terri- blediscovery was made, and haye ever since. eluded pursuit. ,. MORMONISM IN GEORGIA. Dispittch to Cincinnati Enquirer.

The affair raised the greatest scandal in the neighbor- hood, for the young lady had before this borne a stainless reputation for virtue and morality. She had suceeeded in concealing her shame from her father until her confine- ment, after which event it fell like a thunder- bolt on her aged father’s head and drove hii to the verge of insanity. Seizing a gun, he demanded of her the name of her seducer, swearing that he should kill him and himself at first sight. She re- fused.at first, but the frenzy of her pare finally extorted the unwilling confe: that her ruin lay at the door of Thomas Na- tion, a Mormon convert, and her sister’s husband. s Mr. Sharp’s grief, rage, and shame were frightful to behold, and rushing from the house like a madman, armed to the teeth, he sought his son-in-law’s residence with the full blurpose and intent of executing his threat. Instead of finding the miscreant who had accomplished his ruin, he found the corpse of his married daughter, Nation’s wife, who had on the same day, by a ctrious | and terrible cuincidence, been delivered of a child, from the effects of which she had died, Nation, having heard of the discovery of his nefarious conduct, had abasidonad the house and the corpse of his wife and made for the woods. Further search was suspend- ed during the obsequies of the dead woman, after which the whole commu x. joined in the searetl, and the greatest excitement pre- vailed. a aa Sharp offered $100 reward for the arrest of the villain. He had, however, in the mean- time taken the train for this city, accompa- nied by two Mormon friends. “The Sheritf, of Catoosa County, heat his departure for this city, sent a deput ‘pursuit, who arrested him-as he stepped off the train last night, He-was carried to the police station, and there guarded all night by the deputy in person.

The Common—“The Old Elm "*—Bos- tonlan Complacency—Sundzy Excur- sions. _ 2 Special Correspondence of The Chicago Tribune. Boston, _ Mass. July 27.—Henry Ward Beecher once remarked, that he thought it possible for one to get to Heaven evenif he were not born in Boston; but it is doubtful if true citizens of the Hub would ‘willingly exchange residences for anything that Elysium could offer, and I am much mis- taken if they do not expect to tread in the hereafter the streets of a New Boston instead of 2 New Jerusalem. ~ And Boston, despite the parching heat that makes its- narrow, tortuous, wind-barred ‘streets glow like an aven, and crisps the grass and curls the leaves upon its enchanting Com- mon, has loveliness enough even now to call for more than a passing tribute. Nowhere is there such a mall as “The Cummon.”. Its very simplicity, in sharp contrast to the roar of trade and ‘traffic around it, and the gay throngs that. fill its walks, hightens its at- tractions’; Its ‘long avenues of giant elms interlace their branches over wide paths,— not of asphaltum, that horrid compound of: soot, tar, “and bad smells, but rich, golden- hued gravel, with scarce a pebble the size of the finger‘nail to mar the daintiest slipper that trips along these walks and lends the beauty of the wearer to grace the scene.
