Saws the New York Sun: "This is
the first time, we believe, that Mr..
Greeley has been absent from the city
when the Republican party was run
ming a candidate for Governor. 1t has
been his practice to be at home on such
occasions, and to lead the fight His
old white coat is as famous a rally
ing point as was the white plume OF
Henry of Navarro of old. Probably
his detection now will make difference
of ten thousand in the number of votes
cast for the Republican candidate.
However, so great a proportion OF the
Republicans have made up their minds
not to vote for Woodford at any rate,
that the absence of Mr.. Greeley may
not make any difference. Thus, like the
great Achilles before Troy, Horace
svenges the insults put upon him.

the first issue of the Republican under

large sale, curiosity being awakened at
something new in the newspaper busi-

The Boston Bulletin tells this "Old
Judge B, Of New Hampshire, was
what ArtemusWard would have called
'socable cuss' off the bench, and was
noted for claiming acquaintance with
any one whose appearance happened to
please him. Entering crowded car
on the Boston and Maine railroad one
dav, his Honor found the only unoccu-
pied seat to be by the side OF smartly-
dressed and rather good-looking young
woman. AsceNaining that the seat was
not engaged, the Judge settled himself
comfortably in it, and turning with his
accustomed bland, fatherly smile, TO his
fair companion, said:
"'Iour face seems familiar TO me, my
dear; ] think | must know you.

The Navy Department has had,

eight cases of embezzling paymasters,
and thev have stolen amounts ranging

honest officials has been for many
months in some cases for years, in the

such cases, vet none OF the deilnquents

The Tobacco Crop.

The crop OF this noxious weed in this
part of our county, though not as large
as IN some former years, is such in
quality as to make up the deficiency in
quantity, the weather during the past
season having been peculiarly adapted
10 its culture. We understand buyers
have made their appearance in this mar
ket, and are offering from sl5 to $40
per hundred for wrapper, and from g
to s. per hundred for filler. Thus far
little if any has been sold. The princi-
pal part OF the crop Of Lancaster county,
we learn, has been sold at figures rang
ing as high as S25 per hundred

A RuunOr.

A rumor which has for some time
past obtained credence, gains strength
that Secretary Cox, at Washington, pro-
poses to retire soon from the Cabinet,
in consequence of his disgust at the cor
rupt practice of exacting compulsory
contributions from office holders for
electioneering purposes. He has the
temerity to maintain that Office holders,
while absent from Washington, stroll
ing through the country for pleasure,
should not be paid. And for these
anti Radical opinions, General Grant
the prince Of idlers and stragglers-is
showing his teeth at Secretary Cox, and
threatening to dismiss him as one of
the unfaithfui.

Curiosities Of the War.

The shocking casualties among prom
inent commanders in the present war
followed by the sudden and amazing
recovery, says the New York Tribune,
will be cited hereafter as the greatest
curiosities of history.
The Emperor Napoleon died at Cha
Ions at any early period in the struggle.
He died again between Chalons and
Mezieres. He tried to die third time
at the head of his army but could not.
At present he is in better health than
he enjoyed for years.
Marshal Mcmahon, after being in
simultaneously killed at Sedan, recovered
in time to be mortally wounded and die
in Belgium. He is now convalescent.
General Failly was shot by his own
troops. He was afterwards killed in
battle by the Prussians. Finally he
was executed for cowardice. He is now
alive ana well.
King William went raving mad and
was conveyed to Berlin in straight
Jacket, ever since which time he has
been in command at the front.
Bismarck has been shot. The Crown
Prince was killed in action three weeks
ago. Subsequently the former gentle
man held several interesting converse
tions with NJ. Favre and the Tribune
correspondent, and the Prince, notwith-
standing his untimely demise, has con-
tinued to make pretty lively times in
the neighborhood of Paris.
The latest victim is General Won
Moltke. who has been borne to his
grave in three lead coffins, at three diff
ferent times, and with three splendid
funeral professions. He has not reap
peared yet, but he has been so etfectu-
ally buried that the resurrection will
take longer in his case than it did in
