Sr. JOHNSBURY, V- 4, sept. 12, 187% Mz. Greeley left White River / Junction this morn- dng at half-past eight o'clock , accompanied by ex- Lieutenant Governor Hen? eo, W. R. Sanford and John Gregory. The COMM stre¢e appointed by the Fair Asgociation to rece’ / ye nim proceeded at once Wo St. Johnsbury. The 4 was ‘no demonstration whatever along the ¥ onyte, It was twelve o'clock when his train drove, into the depot at this town, where a large crow’ 4, composed of gaping sight- seers, awaited him rhe jittie village of St. John- bury 1s nestled OF | the bauk of the Passumpsic at the foot, and on / no sides of half dozen hills.

The Fair- baBKS family are Grant men, and hold in their bende the votes of the villagers. There are threo PTO ising little newspapers in the town, all of ther “1 as bitter agaist each other as the rival whe ets of “Batonswell,” cramming the lie and the Joy _y-born scoundrel down each other's throats with @ snaish satisfaction on little town issues, and yet 3 train harmoniously for Grant. Into this amiable ) nd friendly neighborhood the great Sage of Obap- paque has THE HEADLONG DARING TO PRESENT HIMSELP a8 an exponent of agriculture immediately on the heels of the 26,000 verdict of the State against his claims as an exponent of politics. It requires ome nerve and courage to do this; but the brave Horace has done it and came triumph- antly off. At an carly hour the little village assumed the appearance ofa gay fair. The town was crowded tosuch excess that the long Balls Of the two hotels had been filled with cots and pallets for the surplus guests the night before, Jooking like hospitals in the dim light of theo. amps, while in the parlors, reading rooms and oMces men were sitting on chairs in agonizing eontortions trying to catch a nod or two, These people turned out into the streets at daybreak, and from that time till the arrival of the train every- thing was a village hubbub. Long drays with four norses waited at every corner, the drivers urging passengers to go to the fair én their outfit as the only really reliable one in town. Country damsels 4m bright colors, with their beaux in hickory shirt costumes, rode in blushingly behind worn-out nags in broken-down vehicles, aud long trains of plat- form care, decorated with evergreens and BLACK WITH HUMANITY, aragged their slow length into the town of all the railroads, In some instances horses were deco- rated with fage—not Greeley ones generally—and sprigs, and a band of music, composed of the most a@istinguished rural talent in the neighborhood, rode around town all the morning, going ina sharp trop towards the depot whenever the whistle of an ‘n-coming train was heardin the distance. It was plain that the honest Vermont folk were deter- ed to show that honor to the agriculturist at they had denied to the candidate; and, while fey, doubted his bencare A as to revolutions, they be- ved in lis system farming hart {u his general bonduct a8 a man. But the Ccawsh hardly aretuark Rbove a Whisper, was to heard as the liberal chief came down from the car platform and wended way through the mass to his open carriage. je wore the traditional white hat and a claw-ham- mer broadcioth coat. He got into his carriage, fol- lowed by ex-Congressman Jedd, P. Ladd and G, H. ‘Wicks, The band, in @ wagon, preceded him, play- ing ‘The Old White Hat,” and two other carriages, containing prominent citizens and members of the press, followed, THE CORTEGE 4 up the avenue, past the Avenue House, the wo Fenda offices and fine Public Librar: Building, to the St. Johnsbury Hotel; and, althoug! ‘wincg ws were filled arid the crowd following the carriages and crowing upon the wheels was y, no means inconsiderable, there was not a single hur- rah, not @ movement indicative of welcome Roomy Pg the route. The people, like country bumpkins, simply gazed, with mouths open and eyes staring, too dumb to fender him a welcome. At present they seem to cousider it their duty not to clasp hands in this way. Tue cortége arrived at the St. Johnsbury Hotel, where the Sage quietly betook himself to his room and prepared for dinner. While the Rreperations for dinner were making, and even while that meal was in progress, several tered gentlemen called upon bim, and a num- of invitations to extend the limit of his visit in Vermont were presented to him. One invitation was to visit some political friends in New- i pe but this he deciined, saying that he ‘wanted to DISASSOCIATE POLITICS from agricultura) fairs. Congressman Poland, an intense radical, who is just now ina bitter feud over the forthcoming Congressional nomination with Judge Steele, another Intensely bitter Grant man, came to see the Sage on assuredly social visit, as he was careful to term it, and after the usual com- iT The words, Well, Poland, I feel pretty well over the fact that Charles Sumner fs to be the next Gov- ernor of Massachusetts.” At two o'clock the carriages, with tne band again appeared, and the Philosopher, accompanied by Poland, Henry G Root, President of the Vermont State Fair Association, and Henry Clark, the Secretary— all strong Grant men—drove to the tune of sclect airs through Main street to the fair grounds. There were no demonstrations op the way, the whole town having suddenly been transported to the en- chanted ground where the aspirant whose claims they bad respected a few days before was to en- chain their attention by bis eloquence. On the fair grounds—a wretched apology even for a county establishment of that kind—there were TWELVE THOUSAND PEOPLE GATHERED, Mr. Clark, in looking at them, said the whole ‘State of Vermont must have turned out, “Hardly,” sald the Sage, drily: “I don’t see enough to make up that 26,000 majority.’ The crowd crushed itself about the wheels of tlie Vehicles, trying to get closer to the old man of the white hat, driving men resistlessly against the vheels, and dashing little boys mercilessly Ly aA ve railings of the track ‘aud they stuaae.

There was no formal Cabinet meeting to-day, though nearly all the oMicials now here represent- with the men, to find themselves suddenly transferred from asnug, warm cot, cosily nestled among these hills, with the schoolhouse, church, store, mailis, «&c., within easy reach, to a rude cabin of I or rough boards, located on a bleak Western prairie, where enial, repulsive. Ido believe ingoing West; but f' cannot recommend it to any who have passed the meridian of their days; and i deem its undeniable privations more lightly regarded, more easily borne by young couples just setting out to traverse arm-in-arm alike the flowery and the thorny byways of life than by almost any others. Ihave not meant to deny that the last tialf cen- tury has witnessed progress in the agricultare of this State; and I do not cite the tact that, whereas she formerly grew her own bread grain and some~ what more, she now buys the greater part of it, a8 discreditable. Ifshe can make her bread cheaper by grazing than by ploughing—by selling wool and butter than by rowing wheat and rye—so be it, lask whether that can be good farming which dis- qualifies land for producing the yery stat of life. But ‘the insect’"—the weevil, midge or fly—} hear it said, has stopped the growth of wheat in New England. I do not admit the apology. I regard the alleged cause of failure as itselfan effect of bad husbandry, It was something lacking in the soil which weakened the plant and invited the ravages of the insect. Let me barely hint at some of the directions in which an enlargement of the application of one chemical power promises to advance the interests of agriculture :— . WIND.—For at least five thousand years wind has played a leading part in navigation; why not also in cultivation Does nature aiford any reason for regarding wind as inherently tractable and ser- viceable on water, but pot ou land? Men have ground grain by wind power for at least a hundred generations; why not thresh it as well? Nay, why. should it not press cheese and turn grindstone and saw wood and pump water, and even, ultimately, plough fields’ We have at length Jearned that such ig the elasticity of alr that a windmill running throughout the night may thereby accumulate power to be expended during the ensuing day or days. Can you suppose tat we shall much longer allow this enormous aggregate of power, which has hitherto thrust itself into our very faces unre- garded, or at least uncomprehended, to expend its fuergics in toppling over our chimneys aud blow- ing the apples from our trees? 1 tell you that this is not possible, I, WaTER.—A hilly, woody country naturally abounds in springs and brooks—in rippilng stream: | tagalog Alithonu as aoe rag Ca ee hart uncecd, unregarted power. Our waterfalls, whether natural or arti- licial, will yet be employed to create (I should say transfer) power, in the shape of compressed alr; and this power will in time be used at long dis- tances from the point at which it was pressed into the service of man. Especially in regions like this, where considerable streamlets oiten all 160 feet in a mile, will water be made to play an {important part in the creation or utilization of power for the Jarmer, AL. STgAM.—Whether steam may or may soon be superseded by electricity or some other Natural force, I cannot stop here to consider, I cannot belleve that the power which sends meg- sages in aninstant from Stamboul to San Fran- cisco wiil long be found inadequate or unfit to Nighten the farmer's labor or to increase its pro- duct. As yet, however, steam is the only force artificially evolved from dead, inorganic matter, which has been widely pons Into the service of Productive industry. But steam has as yet ren- dered Jittle direct service to the farmer, It should and might have rendered much. Let me tndicate afew more points at which im- al seems to me feasibie and commend- able:— I, IrnicatTion.—This, the original basis and in citement of tillage, 1s, in my view, one of its later requirements also. God taught men to prepare the earth and sow seed by setting them the ex- ample in the annually inundated valleys of the lower Nile and other rivers. From this to dain- ming back water, and thus keeping it for applica- tion to. the soil when thirsty, is but a step; yet man was long in taking that iid il. Forests.—The green which gave this State her beautiful name was that of her primitive for- ests, I regret that they palpably grow smaller and lighter. Not that trees were not made to be cut down and forests to give place to cultivated fields; I know they were, and rejoice in the dispensation, But between the clearing away of forests to give place to fruitful flelds and happy homes on the one hand, and destroying all forests, so that fieids can no longer be fruitful nor homes happy, there is a wide space; and the necessity which impelled our pioneer ancestors to destroy trees as a life work has rendered their descendants indiscriminate and reckless in forest extermination. Every Jarmer should have from fifteen to twenty-five per cent of his acres covered with forest, and will average more grass year by year thanif the owner had stripped his land bare of trees, Keep the crestsof his ridges, the sides of his ravines well covered with timber, and he willcut more grass from eighty not acres thus shielded from the drying up of its springs and slopes than if he had his whole one hundred acres denuded of trees and devoted to Go, ‘This is one of the few cases in which a part is greater than the whole. I hold that systematic tree planting is already in order in Verniont—that thousands of her farms should have acres of their crests and steeper hill sides planted with hickory, locust, white oak, white pine, &c., &c. It my conviction that far more labor than has ever < been bestowed on the soll of this State might be thus applied with profit—that the recia! ation of wet lands by underdraining, the subsoiling of flelds where clay or loam would thus be mingled with sand or gravel, the oe ae of fertilizers, Copeciaily of gypsum, to hills, and to heavy clays of freshly-barned, unsiacked ime (especiall: of that portion usually rejected ry Feces | would be gen- erously requited by more bounteous harvests. While our country maintains her iberty and her greatness, the virtues of Vermont will be a pre- cious portion of the national heritage; and if this country is destined, in the providence of God, to illustrate the frailty of all things earthly and rial—{f corruption shall debauch her legisiation and palsy her manly strength—let us never doubt that the last struggle of expiring liberty will be made among these green hilis—that from their summits the eagle will take flight to some land beyond the ocean where justice is not bought and sold as mer- chandise and man disdains to trafic in the rights of his fellow yen, When the speech was concluded the crowd pasta surged about the carriage and grasped the hand of the Philosopher fo heartily that he had to employ both hands in answering these testimonials of es- teem, while a succession of cheers greeted lim, a8 thanderous as the twenty-six thousand majority of two weeks ago, During’ luil in the cheering some for General Grant)” at one cried, “Three cheer: which the peopie first laughed and then took it uy in no way exceeded giving the cheers with a zeal those for Horace, who listened to the cheers for Di & be it smile.

There were very few callers at the White House to-day. Supervisor Emory’s Resignation. ‘The President has accepted the resignation of Supervisor Emory, heretofore in charge of the ln- ternal Revenue territory, composed of the States | of Louisiana, Miesiasippi and Alabama. Supervisor Perry, of Nerth and South Carolina, will take charge of the district vacated by Mr. Emory, and Supervisor Cobb will take charge of Mr. Perry's former district. In accepting Supervisor Emory’s resignation the President and Secretary of the Treasury express a high sense of his integrity and efMicieucy, and regret that he leaves the public service. Affairs at the Patent (Mice. The Commissioner of Patents to-day extended the patents of Allen Sherwood, of Auburn, N.Y., for a raking and binding apparatus for harvesters, also the patent of William Sellers and Coleman Sellers, of Philadelphia for a couphng for shafting, the latter extension being authorized by an act of Congress. Departmental Economy. In consequence of the late act of Congress au thorizing a decrease in the number of employés in the Internal Revenue Bureau no more appoint- ments will be made in the clerical force of that oMce. No vacancy will be filled and the force will be gradually reduced. Naval Orders and Movements.
