How lie New YORK going q issqnestIon asked
= thousand times day 1t is well understood by
both parties that Grant can be easily elected with
out the aid Of New York, but all thinking Repub-
Leans are none the Hess anHions that the Empire
state shall cast its vote in favor Of Union Lbor-
/ IS, Progress and Peace. II the State which fur
nishes the candidate for the eopporheads for tho
Presidency, and the metropolis Of which, the
largest, weAlthiosi and most popular city in the
United States, is the very hot-bed ofcopperheAd-
m-if that State easst lie vote for Grant and

! But we not only want to see New York 20 for

good Republican. We want, also, TO sec her Con.

81 members TO the House Of Representatives,
and it ia important that the Republican majority

be reduced. And it will not be- All the Repub-

| Much has been said Of late about the cotton
raised in Egypt, but only rough estimates have
bean made as to the quantity produced. No reli-
able adyices have been received thus far, as to
the quality Of the cotton raised there the present
season; but 1t is well known that the ruler OF that
country takes a deep interest In agriculture and
that his cotton crop tit being government mo-
nopoly) viii be very large. The Pacba Of Egypt
was the first to appreciate that valuable nvon-
ton, the Steam Plough and, during the last
season, he had more than t,co hundred Of these
ploughs at work on tn bottom lands Of the Nile,
preparing the ground for cotton and rice Al
though the quality of the Egyptian cotton is not
so good aspur sea Island or Upland, a large crop
in Egypt will, nevertheless, materially affect the
market. IT is \ singular fact that these steam
ploughs are not fully appreciated in this country
whore they are most needed II is estimated by
scientific and practg al Agriculturalists that the
area Of producing land, without any increase in
the cost Of production, might be doubled by the
use Of steam ploughs, without any increase in the
entire cost Of production. There are two on the
Magnolia Plantation, below New Orleans, which
have given entire satisfaction.
Among the recent converts (2) to Repubcanism
in this city is Colonel oBeirne, Register Of Wills
and President Of the Conservative Soldiers and
Sailors Union. The Colonel was for long time
attached to the Presidents household and
Swung around the circle with that functonary
but, on the day after the late elections, seeing
that there was no chance for Seymour and Blair
he publicly announced his intention Of giving hit
influence ~ to Grant and Colfax. II ID amusing
to zee the "cheok" which the copperheads Of the
District OF Columbia the most insignificant
Of them display all occasions. When it is re-
membered that the inhabitants Of the District
have no vote for President the ludicrousness Of
their assuming TO support either candidate is APP
parent. In the ease of man Of national reputa.
ton here, it would DO different Persons at
distance might be Influenced by the opinion o.
such man. But this man o'Boirne, and doz-
en- others like him in Washington, all valiant
members Of the Bread and Butter Brigade, can
not control dozen votes between them. No one
cares anything about their opinion. After toady
ing the President for the past three years, and
abusing Congress for the purpose of retaining Of
fee, they vainly turn their coats at the eleventh
hour, for the purpose Of avoiding the wrath Il
| come.
