Plymouth, Mass , June 30.?Ono of
the most destructive forest conflagra?
tions ever known in New England is now
raging here, in the wooded portion of
Plymouth County. It began on Friday,
the 20th instant, and has increased daily
iu magnitude and fury ever since. A
small thunder shower, this afternoon, has
had the effect to somewhat check its
speed, bat unless there is more rain, the
fiery demon threatens a devastation of
the country soaroely less in extent and..
deatruotiveneBS than the famous West?
ern fires. At the begiuning, there wus
no fearfal appreheasions more than of
an ordinary Bummer brush fire, bat to?
night there is general alarm all through
the Cape district, aud citizuus are organ?
izing to proteot the hamlets and villages
which they inhabit.
Washington, July 2 ?The organiza?
tion known as "The Patrons of Hns
bandry," in Washington, iu 1867, and
the National Grange, was organized in
December of that year in this city. The
objects of the order, as announced iu
the seoond oiroular, were to advanco edu?
cation, to elevate and dignify the occupa?
tion of tho farmer, and to proteot its
members against the numerous combina?
tions by which their interests are injuri?
ously affected, and for protecting, by all
available means, the farming* interests
from fraud and deoeptiou of every kind.
The Booial feature is to mako ooantry

With the manufacturers and consumers,
and where it may be deemed necessary
to reduce the rates and freights on rail?
roads by a system of oo-operation. No
politioal or religious discussions are per?
mitted, and, like most secret orders, this
ono has a charitable feature. Womeu
are admitted as members. The head?
quarters are in Georgetown, District of
Columbia, where all the business of the
National Grange is transacted. Over
500,000 of tracts or pamphlets, princi?
pally of addresses delivered from time to
time in fartheranoo of tho order, were
sent out last year, together with occa?
sional circulars of a confidential charac?

enforcement of tho law. The effect will
be to cioso up ait the gardens, and send
the people, as in former years, ovor to
Jersey or into Weatchester County for
lager.

"The moral effsot of the verdict was

defenders of the prisoner and the scenes

Address of General O. T. Deanregard to
I tho Pcopi? of Louisiana.
Fbllow-Citizens: I have been made
the subject of ungracious and illiberal
observation huro and elsewhere, because
of my support of resolutions recommend?
ing a closer union of all the members of
tho permanent population of the State,
to promote faithful administration and
wise and provident legislation. The
ends proposed are not ouly unobjection?
able, bnt patriotic and praise-worthy.
The complaint is of the means. Those
means consist in a candid and frank ac?
knowledgment of constitutional aud legal
facts, which nono can douy, ond the con?
forming of our conduct to those provi?
sions of the existing Constitution of the
State of Louitiauo, which arc as follows:
"Art. 13. All persons abajl enjoy equal
rights and privileges opon any convey?
ance of n public character; and all places
of business or public resort, or for wbioh
a liceuse is required by either State, pa?
rish or municipal authority, shall be
deemed places of a public character, and
shall be opoued to the accommodation
aud patrouHgo of all persons, without
distinction or discrimination on accoput
of oolor.
"Art. 135. All children of this State,
between the ages of six nud twenty-one,
shall be admitted to the publio schools
or other places of learning, sustained or
established by the State, iu common,
without distinction of race, color or pre?
vious condition."
These articles have boeu enforced by
logi.-latiou, which gives to nuy party
whose rights tborenuder have boeu de?
nied, "aright of action to rocover any
damages, exemplary as well as actual,
wbiah he may sustuiu, bufote any- court
of competent jurisdiction." It cannot,
then, be denied that all tho citizens of
tho State buvo been placed upon terms
of equality iu their civil aud political re- |
latious. No preference is given on ac?
count of complexion, oapaoity, employ?
ment, pursuits or the holding of pro?
perty to any individual or class. The
superiority that the possession of these
may attain, depends upon the voluntary
recognition by persons differing in com- I
plexion and capacity, and of different
employments and degrees of education.
The suffrage of every man of lawful age
is to be countod at every election as of
the same value. My proposition is, if
possible, to unite these various condi?
tions of men into a common effort to
improve tbo condition of tho State; to
remove, if it can be done, all questions
that are special to any of these condi?
tions from the coutest, and to fix tho
hearts of all upon higher uud more im?
portant aims. The Btrlfe, hostility, dis?
trust and ostrangement that have followed
from such questions, have placed our
State under the oootrol of the depraved,
dishonest, over-reachiug and corrupt.
Tbo reputation of the State has suffered,
its credit blasted, its finances disordered,
Us honor stained, und public and private
prosperity retarded nnder the influence
of the strife aud tho use made of it by
the artful and selfish adventurers, who
have employed power to accomplish
these disastrons results. Iu our distract?
ed condition, after the general elections
of last November, we appealed in vain to
Congress for relief; the Administration
has, moreover, throwu its powerful influ?
ence on the side of our oorrupt, usurp?
ing State Government, and we can evi?
dently hope for no assistance from our
sister States. We must, therefore, look
only to onrselvea for salvation, which can
only be secured by making a firm alli?
ance with all classes of our population,
to rid aa of those vampires who are suck?
ing the very life-blood of onr pecjde,
whites and blacks.
It is manifest that nothiug but the for
bearanoo of the colored people prevents
them from subjecting common carriers,
and all keepers of placeB of public re
sort, to such losses and annoyances as
would speedily oompel tho practical ao- {
knowledgment of their rights or the
abandonment of business A multi?
plicity of suits, the result of which (?o
fur as our State courts are concerned)
could not bo doubtful, would soon ex?
haust the endurance of the most violent
prejudice. Meanwhile, during a series
of yearn, thu obstinate denial of these
claims of our colored fellow-citizens by
the whites has beeu tho means of urriy-.
iug whites and black-*, almost solidly, in
bitter political hostility against each
other. It has driven tho blacks into an
unnatural coalition with a horde of un?
scrupulous adventurers, who have thus I
secured the political power of the cdiu- |
monwealth. How have they used it? |
To what u sad condition have thoy not
reduced the State. It is an oft told tale,
which I, a son of Louisiana, holding her
honor dourer than "the ruddy drops
which visit this sad heart," have no dis?
position to repeat.
I may be mistaken in supposing thai
a (rank and cordial couceisiou of abso?
lute and practical civil, as well as politi?
cal equality between all citiz?:U?, without
discrimination, on account ol race or j
color, as proposed iu this movement,
would remove the last barrier which
opposes tho political co-operation of
good men, of whatever color, for the
regeneration of tbo State; bnt I am
earnest in my conviction thutl am not
mistaken. Experience ijecnu', at all
ovents, to have demonstrated two propo?
sitions quite conclusively, viz: 1. That
without such oo operation tho redemp?
tion of the Stuto is impracticable. 2
That such co operation cannot bo seen red
on any other terras. Besides, I am pro?
foundly convinced that no sound ami
hiating system of political philosophy
can be constructed nuder existing facts
in Louisiana, at least which doos not
recognize such equality. Every such
system must square itself so as to cou
sidt iu all its expressions and implica?
tions with tho fundamental fact of im?
partial suffrage. When we are asked
why wo refuse to admit colored people
! to the enjoyment of public privileges on
iu footing of equality with other citizens,
it is uot sufficient to say that in so doing
I we merely exercise a right f<?r which we
I are compelled to give a reason. There
mast be some reason or motive at the
foundation of all human eonduot. And
if at the basis of this coarse of conduct
participated in by the mass of the white
people of the State, there does lie a rea?
son so powerful as to defy tho provisions
of the constitution and laws and the de
oreos of courts, it certainly concerns the
oolored man to inquire whether, carried
to its logical consequences, it does not
threaten other rights, of which be al?
ready has tho fall enjoyment. Yet I
would ask any one to state why a colored
man should not partioipato iu these pub?
lic privileges, which would not be a bet?
ter reason why he should not servo on a
jury, why be should not hold responsible
offices, nay, why he should not possess
the right of suffrage itself. We are
bound to give this great experiment of I
republican self -government, on the basis
I of impartial suffrage, a fair trial; and as
long as we assume a position antagonistic
in principle to his rights, and thereby
drive tho colored man into opposition to
us, if harm results, wo must lay the
blame upon ourselves, rather than on
tho Byslem.
I am persuaded that tho natural rela?
tion between the white and oolored pep
pie is that of friendship. I am per?
suaded that their interests are identical;
thut their destinies ia this State, whero
the two racos are equally divided, are
linked together; aud that there is no
prosperity for Louisiana which muit not
he the result of their co-operation. X
urn equally convinced that the evils anti?
cipated by somo from the practical en?
forcement of equal rights are mostly
imaginary, and that the relations of the
ruces in the exercise of these rights will
speedily adjust themselves to the satis?
faction of all. I take it that nothing but
malice or stupidity could find anything
either iu tho letter or spirit of the unifi?
cation resolutions which contemplates
any interference or dictation in the pri?
vate social relations of the people. Theso
lie entirely outside the domain of legis?
lation and politics. It would not be de?
nied that, in traveling and at places of
public resort, we oftvn share these privi?
leges in common with thieves, prosti?
tutes, gamblers and others who have
worse sins to answer for than the acci?
dent of color'; but no ono ever supposed
that we thereby assented to the social
equality of these people. I, therefore,
say, that participation in these public
privileges involves no question of social
equality. By the enjoyment in common
of such privileges, neither whites nor
blacks assert, or assent to, social equality,
either with each other, or even between
individuals of the same race. I have not
proposed to myself any advantages
from the resolntions referred to. I do
not seek or desire cilice or emoluments.
I have i:i view but the restoration of
Louisiana to the place of honor from
which site has falieu. I surrender no
principle, nor do I separate from any
friends. I unite with those who, npon
a candid conaideratiou of the circum?
stances they do not control, have to ex?
tract from them the greatest amount of
good that they allow of.
If there be any*who can propose other
and better means, I shall not be back?
ward in adopting them. But it is very
clear to my mind that the strength of a
State consists iu the harmonious, cor?
dial, contented union of all the good
men of the community in honest efforts
for the improvement aud progress of the
whole. It is equally, clear that strife,
discord, disunion and distracted efforts
and pursuits will produce nothing but
weakuess and disappointment. The
base, sel;isb, unscrupulous and merce?
nary always profit from confusion, dis?
order and the disintegration of society.
This is a full, candid and, to my mind,
accurate view of the situation, and I
shall regulate my conduct accordingly,
bo as to freo ourselves from "carpet-bag"
rule, aud the improper interference of
tho Federal Government in our State
affairs. G. T. BEAUREGARD.

Notable Sale or Blooded Stock.?
On Tuesday lust, there occurred at John
stou'd Depot, two miles from the resi?
dence of Colonel Bauou, qnito a notable
sale of blooded stock?some eight or nino
lino horse* owned by Bacon ?t Holland.
Mr. Holland is a Northern gentleman,
and the hor.ses were told upon a dissolu?
tion of copartnership. Promiuent among
I theso horses was tho famous stallion,
Lynchburg, whose shoulder, it will be
remembere.l, was seriously iujured by a
railroad accident, s)mo three years ago.
Siuce theu he has been devoted to breed?
ing purposes. Ho was knocked down
on Puesday at 81,000. Safeguard brought
:?350; Bullet. SloO; Van lerlee, S00O; Fa?
ther Byan, ?500; John Payne, 8500; a
mare, unnamed, ?125. And two fillies
were sold to Colonel Cash at private sale.

It h gratifying to know that General
Howard's case is to bo promptly investi?
gated. Like the lato Mr. Colfax, he ban
j been o.ie of our most osteemedaud trust
I ed public men. It is painful to think
i that, he has made a fraudulent use of
j pulic funds, or has managed the import?
ant interests entrusted to his charge iu
I such n Iooho, helter-skelter fashion that
I dishonest men have plundered the Go
I verument uudcr his name. At present,
hhiugs look very badly for General
i Howard. There are cases where leakage
i-; quite ?s criminal as stealage.

Massachusetts is making a renewed ef?
fort to mark tho grave of her great war
Governor, Andrew, by au appropriate
monument. Bat the money don't come
j down like hail stoues after a September
shower. There are too many prophets,
I und the stone* are too expensive.
