The radicals of Boston, it appears,
cannot stand the vitriolic abuso and
denunciation of "Wendell Philliris,
?when directed against themselves.
One of them employs the following
language in addressing him:
"They (tho radicals) will endure no
moro of tho moral bullying to which
they think you arc, beyond measHre,
addicted; and if you wish to know
how they propose to help themselves,
I can tell you. They will cither cut
yon dead, and leave yon without an
audience, or they will have you in?
dicted for libel by the grand jury,
and convict you, too, as sure as your
name is "Wendell."
This is refreshing. It reminds ns
of the old saying, that 1 'when thieves
fall ont, honest men are likely to get
their dues." Wendell will no doubt]
come back at this bold fellow in a
manner that would be creditable to
an old moccasin snake in the month
of August, when those reptiles are
said to be blind from excess of
venom, and strike at even a rustling
leaf. If you could ever once see
these political and religious Kilkenny
cats swallowing one another, Ave
should feel inspired with a new hope
for the country; and nowhere would
such symptoms bo more gratefully
recognized by us than in Boston and
Massachusetts, for there the gangrene
commenced, which has poisoned our
political system.
"Moral bnllying" hardly expresses
the idea; blasphemy, profanity and
treason would more appropriately de- I
fine the employment to which Wen?
dell Phillips k, Co. are ' 'beyond mea?
sure addicted." And we imagine that
the threat of the irate radical will
hardly avail to stop the sluices of
foul abuse, because the audiences of
Phillips relish this sort of eloquence.
Nor would any jury be likely to con?
vict him of libel, because they would
regard everything uttered by him as
a transcript of the Gospel; and for
the further reason that no grand jury
empanelled in that quarter could lind
a "true bill" on any subject. In po?
litical, moral and religious questions,
whatever conclusions tho people of
Boston arrive at, are generally reach?
ed after passing over the prostrate
form of truth. Hence, it is evident
that a man like Wendell Phillips
must have a powerful sympathetic
hold upon the popular heart.

GERMAN LABOR.-The Columbus,
Georgia, Enquirer fears that the
experiment of introducing German
laborers upon tho Southern planta?
tions may fail, because they require
food which is not raised there, and
and can only be procured from the
North. The increased expense o?
such laborers may neutralize the
cheapness of their wages.
The St Joseph (Missouri) Herald
says: Our farmers speak of the wheat
crop this season as more promising
than any for the post five years. It
is said to be ten inches high and is
growing fast. From other sections
of the ?tate we have the most en?
couraging accounts, and the pros?
pects for an abundance of wheat this
year is better than the most sanguine
farmers expected.
Tho trial of skill between the tele?
graph operators of the New England
States and New York, took place
Wednesday night. The prize, a gold
telegraph key, was awarded to Mr.
Kettles, of Fall River, Mass., he send
250 words in six minutes fifteen
seconds.
A large meeting has been held at
St Louis upon the question of bridg?
ing the Mississippi and Missouri
Rivers. Resolutions were unani?
mously passed, strongly protesting
against tho lato Act of Congress,
granting a bridge at Quincy, and
providing for a memorial toCoagrejs.
In Philadelphia a . thief robbed a
broker's boy of $3,000 in the street,
but was immediately knocked down
by a bystander and handed over to the
police.
JOHN VAN B?KEN ON THE CKISIS.
At a lute meeting in New York city to
sustain the President, John Van
Buren was present and delivered a
spoech, from which we make the fol?
lowing characteristic extracts:
He assured his auditors that the
States lately in rebellion would vote
at the next Presidential election, and
that the votes then given would he
counted, let it como on to-morrow or
any other occasion. There was some
opposition to tho sentiment the Pre?
sident had pronounced in relation to
his prophesied assassination ; and the
opposition party had used his words
in that connection to his detriment.
Now, what the President meant, in his
opinion, was that thore was a large,
ignorant portion of the people (ne?
groes) who might be incited to such a
deed. To these the President referred.
Thero were those who might incite the
negroes to commit violence against
him. It was to a black Brutus that
the men looked for deliverance. Mr.
Van Buren then went on to say that |
no Democratic President had ever,
died in office, and taking counsel I
from the past, he might say that none
I ever would.
j In 18C8, he said, the Southern
States would have a voto in the Pre?
sidential election, and he might pro?
phecy that Andrew Johnson would
then be re-elected President of the
United States. On the 4th of March,
1869, ho would be the President, and
then tho votes given for any indi?
vidual for the Presidency would be
counted, and the individual who re?
ceived the constitutional majority of
these votes would bc pronounced
elected. He (Mr. V. B.) did not ap?
prehend any revolutionary disturb?
ance in this regard. There was, in
his opinion, no causo for alarm. An?
drew Johnson being President and
C<*mmander-in-Chief of the army and
navy of the United States, would l>e
able to enforce the law; and as to the
leaders of the opposition, one of
whom had escaped out of a back
window when accused of criminal
offence, and another who went over
to Europe whining about being
whipped, ho thought there was no
danger.

LOKF.LT.-The Washington Star
very gravely announces that the Com?
missioners of Freedmen's Affairs, last
week, received despatches from
Charleston, South Carolina, in which
it is stated as probable that the peo?
ple will not raise as largo crops as
those produced before the war.
Between 7 and 8 o'clock, last Satur?
day, twenty-two negro men were ar?
rested by the police in Washington,
for drilling on the streets as a milita?
ry* company, accompanied by a drum.
They said they were authorized by
Gen. Howard to form a company and
drill themselves.
Hon. O. H. Browning, formerly
Republican Senator from Hliuois, is
out in a letter emphatically endorsing
tho President's policy. He denounces
the radicals as untrue to the princi?
ples of tho Government.
There lias been a great revival in
progress at the Baptist Church, nt
Haleigh. It continued six wonks.
One hundred persons were added tr

The New York police have arrested
quito a number of counterfeiters
