A special to the Chicago Tribune un­ der date of Juiie 30th, has the follow- lug: . * , la the Senate this morning Mr. Chan­ dler arraigned the Democratic party for its course in the prefcenfc ^session.-- He said: . • ••• We hate now been three months and •a half in this Capitol, not without cer­ tain results. We have 8ho\yn i to the people of this nation jnst what the Democratic party means. The people have been informed a* to your party's ends and aims. By fraud and violence, by shot guns and tissue baHols, you hold the present majority In both House of Congress, and yon have taken an early opportunity to show what you intend to do with that * majority thus Obtained. You are within sight of the promised land, but like Moses of okl. we propose to send you up into the mountains to die. [Great laughter.] Mr. President, we are approaching the end of this extra session, and its re­ cord will soon become history. The acts of the Democratic party, as man­ ifested in this Congress, justify me in arraiuging it before the' people of the United States on the political issues which it has presented, as THE KNKMY OF THK NATION. and as the author and abetter of rebel­ lion. Mr. Chandler proceeded to arraign the Democratic party as follows: , JF^rst--For having resorted to revo­ lutionary measures to carry out their partisan projects by attempting to co­ erce the Executive by withholding supplies, and thus accomplishing by starvation the destruction of the Gov­ ernment which tbey had failed to over­ throw by arms. Secondr--¥or having injured the busi­ ness interests of the country by for­ cing the pre«ent session, after liberal compromises were tendered to them prior to the close of the last session. .Third--For attempting to throw away the results of the War by again ELRVATIKG STATE OVER NATIONAL SOV­ EREIGNTY. We sacrificed more than 300,000 lives and expended more titan $5,000,000 to put down thiti heresy, and to perpetu­ ate the National life. They 'surren­ dered this at Appotnatox, but now they attempt lo renew ^his pretension; Fourth--For having atterapted(there arc honorable exceptions, and long may they be remembered) to damage the business interests of the country by forcing silver coin into circulation of less Value than It represents, thus swindling the laboring man and pro­ ducer by compelling him to accept S"> cants for the dollar, and thus enriching the bullion owners at the expense of the laborer. Twelve hundred million of dollars if paid yearly to labor alone iu this couutry,and by forcing the 86 cent dollar ou the workingmen you swindle them out of gl80,000,0(J0 year- 1 y. i^A-For having removed without cause experienced offioers and em­ ployes of this body, some of whom served and were wounded in the Uni->^ Army, and with appointing men who had lh the Rebel Army attempted 1 TO DESTROY THE GOVERNMENT. Sixth--Vox having executed a secret and illegitimate tribunal, the edicts of which have been made the supreme governing power of Congress, in defi­ ance of the fundamental principles of the Constitution. The decrees of .the junta are known,although , \, ITS MOTIVES *RE HIDDEN*' ^ Seventy-- For having held up for pub­ lic admiration that arch-Rebel, Jefter- 6on Davis [great laughter ou the Dem­ ocratic side], declaring he was inspired by motives as sucred and as noble us animated Washington, and as having rendered services in attempting to de­ stroy the Uuiou which would equal in history Grecian fame and Romau glory jXaughter.] You may laugh. The people of the North will will make you laugh'from the other side of your faces. [Renewed ladghter.l Eighth--For having undertaken to blot from the statute book of the na­ tion wise laws rendered necessary by the Waraud its results, aud Insuring "life, liberty, and the pursuit of hap­ piness" to the emancipated freedmeu, who are uow so bulldozed that they are seeking peace in exile, although urged to remain by shotguns. Ninth--For having attempted to re­ peal wise legislation which excludes those who served under the Rebel flag from holdiug commissions iu the army aud navy of the United States. Tenth--For having introduced a large amount of legislation for the ex­ clusive benefit of the States recently iu rebellion which. If enacted would BANKHIs FT THE NATIONAL TREASTRY. Eleventh--For having conspired to destroy all that (lie Republican party has accomplished, many of thetia break ing their oaths of allegiance to. the United States, aud pledging their, lines, their fortunes aud their sacred They failed and thus lost all they pledged. Call a halt. The day* of vaporiug are over. The loyal North Is aroused, ^nd their doom Is seated. I aeeept the issue on these arraignments distinctly and specifically before the citizens of the United States, I appeal to the people of this great He public.-- As Senator of the United States and as a citizen of the United States,- I ap­ peal to the people. It is tor those citi­ zens to say who is right and • who is wrong. I go before that tribunal con­ fident the Republican par^y is right, aud that the Democratic party Is wrong. They have made these issues, notxwe, and by them they must stand or fall. This platform which they have constructed is not only for 1879 but for 1880. They cannot change it, for we will hold them to It. They have made their bed, and we will tee to it that they lie thereon. ffir Senafof Logan, in Ills Speech on the irmy bill, made two point? tha*. were not brought out in the telegraphic report. Senator Beck having stated that General Palme**, now a Democrat, had violated the Constitution immedi­ ately %fler the war, under orders, General Logan said: y I say that, wltliout exemption,In my judgment the Senator cannot name a Commanding officer ot high reputation In the. armies of the United States during the war who ever attempted to use the army iu any other way than for legitimate purposes that Is t:ot to­ day in the ranks of the Democratic party, from General .McClellau down. From the days of Mr. Buchanan in the use of the arthy in Kansas down to General Palmer with the use of the army in Kentucky, there is no man to­ day in my mind that is iu the Republi­ can.party. You may take all instances of alleged arbitrary use of tiie army in this country during its wlto'.e history. In the pursuit of slaves and in the snp- pression of the voice of tlio peopie in a free territory of Kan«as, and it has bee:; either under a Democratic ad* ministration or wielded ntsder the in­ fluence of a Democratic officer.' Now, sir, what is the position of the Republican party? It is not that we desire the use of the army at the polls to suppress the rights of citizens. That is the attempt on the part of Demo­ crats to bring before the people a false issue. Our proposition is that you shall not deprive the Executive of this nation of the exerciset»f his right under the Constitution in the execution of the laws which he has taken an oath to see to their faithful execution; not that lie shall exercise power arbitrarily, not that he shall out­ side of tins law exercise power or use the army as a posse or in any other way .unnecessarily, but that 3'ou shall Hot prevent him, in pursuance o£the law aud the Constitution, from the protection of citizens In their rights guaranteed to them by the.lawsor the Constitution of our country. That if the position of the Republican party Replying to Senator Hill, General Logan proceeded to show that tlio Re­ publican party did save the Union, aud that the Democratsclparty did not, and tlten said: When Senators continually point over to this side of the Chamber aud speak of the wrongs that have been committed, I say to tliem, as far as I ant concerned, ( atu willing to let by­ gones be bygones as far as We Can: but It cannot be so as long as you vour- selves are the irritutors. You gentle­ men who during the war Indorsed all kinds of wrong, you gentlemen who indorsed acts that would make civilized mankind shudder, men who indorsed conduct in warfare that wis riot ac­ cording to tiie civilization of the age, men who indorsed the attempts to dis­ seminate small-pox aud disease in tiie North, and to fire Northern cities, to teli us that we must stop talking aoout rebellion! And you censure and criticise Pepublicaus ou this floor every day because of something that transpired during the war. and say we are trying to arouse the Northern sen­ timent. 1 say to you unless you your­ selves stop this you will have a solid North/and when the North becomos solid again, It will be solid to remain BO. J@*Prlor to the discovery of this continent by Columbus, says a cotem­ porary, there were no cereal in Amer­ ica approach!ng in nature the wheat plant. It was not until 1680 that wheat found Its wtiy into 3£exico.' and then only |by chance. A slave of Qortuz found a few grains of wheat In a parcel of rice aud showed them to his masjter, who ordered them to l>e planted. The result showed that wheat would thrive well on Mexican soil, and to-day one of the finest wheat valleys In the world is near the Mexican capital. From Mex­ ico tiie cereal found its way to Peru.-- Maria I>' Escobar, wife of Don Diego de Ctiauvds; carried a few grains to> Lima, which were planted, the ei-tlre product being used for several succes­ sive crops. At Qulta, In Ecuador, a monk of the order of St. Francis, by the uatne of Fray lodosi Rixl, intro­ duced the new cereal; and It is said that the jar which contained the seeds planted is still preseivod by the monks of Quito. Wheat was introduced into th« present limits of the United States contemporaneously with the settVe- meut of otir country by |he English wul the Dwteh. MertKNKf . COIINTIKS. From Circular No. 63, Illinois Crop Prospects, In?Ing a consolidation of Reports returned to the Department of Agriculture June 1st, 1879. we glean tbe following in relation to McHenry and Lake Conn tie* 5 C * MCHEKHY.--Corn I* small; nearly three-fourths of the area has been plnn* ted the second time, owing to th« dry weather and poor seed; the .late ra!ns have greatly Improved the prospect for Corn; the acreage is much larger than last season. Winter Wheat is not extensively grown In the county, but the present acreage Is nearly one- half larger than last season; the growth lias been stunted by the drouth; there will not be a full average yield per acre. There Is not as large an area sown to Spring Wheat as last season, and the dry weather has reduced the prospect materially; the average yield will be short one-fonrtli. Oat acreage about the same a* last year, and two- thirds of a crop expected. Meadows .and Pastures are very short; ̂ the late rains have started X rapid growth of Grass, and a fair crop expected. The condition of Farm Animals is ffrlr.-- There are not as many Hog* as last season; slight increase In uumber of Sheep. Apples andPeare about half a crop. Plums, Cherries, Strawberries* Raspberries, Gooseberries and Cur­ rants three-fourths of a crop. Prices range from #14.00 to #18.00 per month, with board, and from #20.00 to §25.00 without board, for farm hands. I LA*R.--The first planting of corn came up even, aud the heavy rain of the 25th will Insure the rapid growth of the late planting. Corn is much the best on fall-plowed land. The acreage planted is about the saute as last sea­ son, and the condition promises nearly an average yield per acre. Very little Winter Wheat grown in the county.-- The condition is good and the ana larger than list ?pr*ng Wheat has stood the drouth well* and is im­ proving rapidly. The acreage Is lar­ ger thau la 1878, and the condition Is neatly up to an average The dry weather lit May injured the prospect for Oats, the area is larger than usual, and the present condition gives assur­ ance for more than three-fourths of an average crop. Meadows very much af­ fected by droiith. Timothy Meadows cannot recover. Clover and low Mead­ ows are Improving since the vain.- Peaches aud Plums are a failure. Ap­ ples, pears.Cherries and Currants will make about three-fourths of an average crop. Grapes, Strawberries, Rasp* berries aud Blackberries nearfy an average crop. Farm Animals vre In fair condition. Less Hogs aud Cattle on hand than last season. Farm hands are paid from #14.00 to #18.00 per month and f boarded; without board, from #22.00 to #iftj00. . ...1 V: COR WASHING to*. t>. & Jd!(«**»« The President, hi< friends say, has wisely decided not to call Congress to* gather again this summer.

The keeper said to him one morning, •'McGinuiss, you go to work or to the pump," "Xiyer,"' replied the Irish- main A second timfe the keeper or­ dered McGiuniss to work, but he re­ fused to budge an lueh. "Now, for the last time, McGinniss," exclaimed the keeper, toyou go to work or to the putnp.n "Niver, sir," said M&inniss, straightening up to the full dignity of a man;"begad, sir, I'll lave the jail flrbt."--Hartford Post. Ladies regular made Balbriggan Hose ggai 2o cents, at Fltzslmmona & Evauson's' tSTA few days since a party of gen­ tlemen were together. One man, a jo­ ker, stepped up to1 a member of the party and, holding a loug hair, before his eyes, said, "See here, old fellow, this looks suspicious. Where did this long hair coine from?" "Why, that's froiu uiy wife's head!" "Are you gyre of it?'* "Sure ot it? of course I am.-* You don't suppose you would find any other woman's hair about me, do you?*1 "No, probably not, but I am sorry you are so sure it is your wife's hair, for 1 just picked it oft tiie coat of this guti­ tle man," pointing to a friend near by. them.
