John Randolph's famous estate, Roanoke, is to be sold on September 2. Kearney wants all the law books burnt, but he positively declines to wash himself. While the grain crop this year is a magnitl cent one, larger than any over raised in this country, the crops of all European countries fall far below the average. England alone will need 104,000,000 bushels of wheat, while France and Germany, who usually have a sur plus supply, will have to be importers. The scare of the Western farmers, who feared that they had raised too large a supply of grain and that there would be no market for it, is apparently groundless. Kearney advises the workingmen to "pool their issues," but when asked what the issues are he dleclines to tell. This reminds the Bos ton Herald of the strategy of Silas Wegg when Mr. Boffin suddenly asked him the dif ference between the Roman empire and the Russian empire. "Wegg was cornered, but cleared himself by declaring that he could not be induced to explain in the presence of Mrs. Bofin, and Borlin blushed with the thought that he had asked an improper ques tion." The yellow fever epidemic in the South has completely interrupted the business of the Poetoffice Department. Not only are we of New Orleans suffering from this mail stagna tion, but the whole South as well. Last week the government attempted to transact official business between New Orleans and certain quarantining points in Arkansas and Texas by sending the Now Orleans letters to Wash ington and thence to Texas and Arkansas. But this new arrangement has been put an end to. The quarantining points have ditcov ered this trick andl are preparing to prevent it in the future. The employees of the post ofilce at Washington at the same time pro test against handling mail matt,'r from infect ed points and hence complained so bitterly of the hardship of this that it is highly probable that the New Orleans mail service will be dropped even at Washington. As it is now, the Southern mail service is in the most chaotic and disorganized condition. The case of the Abbe dl Mattia, the Italian priest who won $420,000 from the government lottery of Italy, is not yet ended. The prize he won dealt the lottery management a heavy blow; nevertheless it was paid di Mattia, who I left the country at once on a pleasure trip. No sooner was he gone than the lottery man agement declared the winning of this capital prize a fraud and a conspiracy, seized di Mat tias' bank account and announced that he had lled the country, and that they would arrest him wherever they could set hands on him. Right in the midst of all this di Mattia re turns and dares the lottery to arrest him. He has been home two weeks or more, and is yet a free man- the lottery does not dare to ar rest him. The whole affair has been disre putable from the beginning. It makes little difference whether di Mattia swindled the lottery, or the lottery attempted to swindle him. The Italian government finds that al though this lottery business yields it a large revenue, it gives it, at the same time, a most unpleasant reputation with the people. It is said that King Humbert is a bitter apponent of the government's engaging in this nefarious business, and there seems every probability that the di Mattia affair will put an end to the lottery business in Italy. We seem to-day to thoroughly recognize the value of our earlier Presidents; at least, after allowing them to lie in unhonored graves for years the government has lately under taken to erect monuments to perpetuate their memory. The Washington monument, whose half-finished condition has been so long a dis grace to the nation, is at last to be completed in all the magnitude of the original design. Washington, however, is not the only Presi dent to be so honored. Congress has con tributed a large sum of money for the erection of a monument over the grave of Thomas Jefferson at Monticello. President Taylor also is to have a monument over his neglected grave. Among many other similar presiden tial reminiscenses is a bill before Congress to pay the heirs of President Monroe his un drawn salary as a lieutenant colonel in the revolutionary war, of the passage of which there seems to be no doubt. This recognition of the services of our former Presidents is due probably to the reputation that our Pres idents of to-day have made. A two years' experience of Hayes has convinced the coun try that Washington, Jefferson and Taylor were patriots deserving of some tribute to their memory. Kearney at Lowell: I saw this morning down in the city of Lynn, from my bedroom 'window, women going to work at 6:30 o'clock in the morning. Oh, what a shame! At 6:30 in the morning going to their work in a close room. While on my way up from Lynn I saw a blood-sucker of labor laying off in his hammock on the beach, suffering fearfully. -Derisive laughter.] Do you propose to allow such a state of affairs to continue any longer? jCries o "No! no."1 HON. J, O. P,, BLACKBURN--GREETING! The resolution of Congress, under which the Potter committee was appointed, laid down in most explicit language the scope of the Investigation which it was instructed to make. The language of the resolution is curt had incisive, and is destitute of even the ostentatious verbiage that is regarded as sacramental in an ordinary indictment for larceny or breach of trust. It simply alleged false and fraudulent returns in Florida, where by the election in that State was annulled and reversed, and all at the procurement of Edw. F. Noyes. It alleged these same facts in regard to Louisiana, and the further fact of conspiracy to prevent the casting of the Re publican vote in the Fellcianas, in order to af ford a pretext for the exclusion of the vote of these parishes, this at the instigation of John Sherman. Under the resolution, the commit teehad but to inquire into the count of the two States of Florida and Louisiana, and whiat Noyes had to do with the former and Sherman with the latter. In the beginning the committee manifested a determination to conflne itself to these propositions, but It was driven from this wise and just conclusion by the clamors of Sherman, who insisted on mak Ing of the investigation, instead of the almost judiclal inquisition it was meant to be, an en gine of political capital, only to abandon his project when he found that the investigation could not be used for his own purposes. In abandoning its original programme, at the clamor of John Sherman, the committee has given the lnvestigation a broad( and compre hensive scope it was never intended it should take. It has gone into the question of intimi dation, and all other questions, however re motely connected with the elections, as well as the conspiracy which followed after. Par ticularly has the committee, by the testimony of Major Burke, put on record all that con cerned the action of the Nicholls govern ment in securing its establishment after the determination .of the Democratic caucus to abandon Tilden in the interests of peace and harmony and brotherly love. What the committee has elicited on this score will stand hereafter for history, and we insist that the history shall be full and complete, with an ample treface. The facts as brought out, so far, are made the basis of all sorts of charges of treachery and betrayal, barter and sal, on the part of Southern Democrats, and especially of the agents of Louisiana. These facts are the staple of tile Sim's 4daily abuse and villiflcation of the South. What the me tive of this paper can be, whose politics are bounded by Tilden's personality, we cannot understand. The South made him President and the Sun made him a coward, yet the SRn, seeking to obscure these truths, can find in the facts established by the investigation but the grounds for such charges as these: Mr. Hayes got into the White House by a bargain, an arrangement, a trade. The investigations of the Potter committee have made that plain, if it was not plain before. Hiis Inauguration was not the result of the election alone. It was .n consequence of an understanding with certain Southern men which was come to long after the election was over. These are the conclusions reached from the testimony as to facts which occurred after the conclusion of the Democratic caucus to sub mit to the count of the Electoral Commis sion. Now, there is on this committee, and he is a most able and conspicuous member, and a true and loyal son of the South, a gen tleman who owes it not less to himself than to the South to see that the whole story of the electoral count shall be put upon record. We allude to Mr. Blackburn, to whom we make a personal appeal. He represents the true feeling of the South in that mattel', and he commands the special approval and commendation of the run, the chief of our villiflers. We ask him to see that we are set right in this whole affair. We ask that he have put on record the determination reached by the Democratic caucus to abide by the electoral count-the circumstances which led to that determina tion, and at whose solicitation and by whose cowardice and miserable, contemptible, per ildious weakness the nation's shame was pro inured, with a solicitude born of fear, but marked with the eagerness and baseness of a pander. We only ask him to put on record the name of ABlRAM S. IIEWITT tal the editorials of the NEW YoRK SON contemporaneous with the conclusion of the Electoral Commission. This is all the vindication we ask. DIED. FLYNN--On Sunday, August 225. 1875, at 7:15 o'olock p. 1m., of nervous prostration.
