Action Action Action Make grand
rally for Packer and victory /" Hundreds of
witnesses have told the public by what sort
of action the Democracy carried the city 'ast
year. Now, alas! the Supreme Court will
issue no new naturalization papers, and the
registers will watch the assessors lists closely
Still, the ingenuity Of Democratic partisans
is not easily exhausted, and new modes of
faction" may speedily be devised. Indeed,
one form, the establishment of ''club law"
has already been proposed.
The most ominous and peculiar portion of
this address is the last line, ''Make grand
rally for Packer and victory" Is Packer the
only man worth striving for Did not Per-
shing deserve word of comfort ? And must
the whole ticket, created by the assembled
wisdom of the party, be remorselessly slaugh-
tered? Rich as Packer is, can the party
afford to concentrate all its strength in this
barefaced manner upon its millionaire and
turn the cold shoulder upon every poor local
favorite Are no tears to be shed for Johnny
Ahern, no praises of Stewart to be sung, and
no eulogies of Schieble to be delivered? ?
''Think of it, drink of it, dissolute men,"
Even the official organ of the party in
this city does not dare to say one word on
behalf of single man on the city ticket
Everything is swallowed up in Packer. For
him the obnoxious men must be crowded off,
despite their many services in past campaigns,
despite their desperate struggles to procure
nominations, despite the zeal and energy with
which they have fought, bled, and cheated for
their party. Fry has resigned gracefully; but
before this new programme can be fully ar
ranged there are other fish to fry, and some
of them may not be equally ready to jump
from the frying pan into the fire. The CAM
paign aboutnds with difficulties to which even
the eloquent and skilful Hamilton is scarcely
equal and the public impatiently awaits the
important new developments which are daily
and hourly expected.

dismayed Democracy of Maine. And just on
the eve of the day which was to bring them
such a feast of power, Senator Fessenden
passed away, and the grand prize of seat in
the National Senate was placed within their
grasp!
But the returns of the election, as we read
them this morning, dispel the happy vision,
and the hungry Democracy turn away from
the coveted flesh-pots with sigh. The vote,
according to the indications of the incom-
plete returns, will stand about as follows
For Chamberlain, 4S, 900; for Smith, $4,000;
and for Hichborn, 5000; giving the first about
5000 clear majority over both competitors.
The Republicans have also probably elected
27 out of the 81 Senators, and good round
majority of the members of the lower house.
So much for the hopes of the Democracy OF
Maine The party in that State is deader than
it was a year ogo, when the mathematical
genius of the World was engaged in figuring
up a Seymour and Blair victory on the
strength of a decrease, in consequence of
local issues and indifference on the part of
the people, in the Republican majority of
10000 in single year.

Allegheny Cattle MARKET.
ALLEGHENY, March 5.


CATTLE.--There was an increased
supply of Cattle on sale Monday, near
ly nine hundred head, but with good
local demand, the market was firm, and
prices, especially tor good cattle, were
fully sustained. There was but single
Eastern buyer in attendance, and he
did not buy a sing gle hoof, as the butch :
ers were paying more for the kind OF
cattle suitable for shipment than he
cattle always bring a full price in this
market, and we doubt very much
whether there is another place in this
country that is supplied with as good
meat as Pittsburg and Allegheny. The
very best cattle in the West are brought
to the Allegheny market, and there is
scarcely a week passes but what our
drovers buy the very pick of the Chica-
go market, and it takes they very best to
satisfy some of our butchers. There
was one small drove of extra fine steers
on sale brought here from Chicago.
Eight of these were bought at HlDe ana
a half cents per pound. Prime to extra
butchers stock sold at 9aSHc., and talr
to medium at 7a71zc. Bulls sold at "a
&c, as to quality and condition, and
fresh cows at S40a70 per head
SHEEP.-The supply of sheep on SAFE
was again light, less than six hunoreo
head, but the market appeared 70 ps
very quiet, the demand having 1eIl on
wonderfully since prices have gone up up:
The cause assigned for the very llgnI
arrivals is the fact that the shearlne
season is near at hand, and farmers are
not as anxious about selling until aItel
| the wool has been taken of, unless
they get a big price. Good to prime fa'
mutton sheep may be quoted at 5a7c.
HoGs-Market quiet and unchanged
and the retail demand continues light
