JUDGE IRELAND.

T The unanimous election of Judge Ireland
for the chaiFmanship of the State Demo
cratic Executive Committee Is highly APP
proved by Democrats. Is is an office with
out profit, but one of responsibility, and
Judge ireland will fill the position with
ability and credit His heart is wrapped up
in the success of the party, and we are salts
fed that in this most honorable and respon-
sible position he will advance the working
organization Of the party to high state of
perfection. And such is what we need. We
need every Democrat to go to the polls and
swell the party majority to $4,000. 1t can
be done, if the voters can be put in proper
training for the polls And this can be
done by thoroughly organizing the party,
by discreet instructions and counsel for the
conduct of the canvass. We believe that
Judge Ireland will add to the strength OF
the party by instituting perfect system OF
organization We want to see the Radical
party crashed by an overwhelming vote.
We do not want to see it-when it is in our
power to throttle it-live on ina semi-sickly
existence, hoping to recover from its weak
ness; but we desire to see the Democracy
triumph, gloriously and slgnally triumph
and the chief executive officer Of the party
is the man who will certainly see to this.

A Remarkable Sale of Cows.

1t seems that We are not only sending Amerl-
can Goals to Newcastle and American iron to
Birmingham, but the tables are so far turned
that American "Durhams" have been bought by
English dealers at almost fabulous prices.
A New York stock raiser, Hon. Samuel Camp
bell, made sale of short-horns at his place near
Rochester, New York, on Wednesday, that has
attracted general attention by the enormous
prices realised. The highest prices paid were
on English account. 1t seems that pure blood
short -horns Of the breed sold cannot be bought
in England at any price. There has not been
q public sale of short-horns in England for
twenty years, and for this reason Englishmen
were on hand at this sale to purchase, and Mr.
r. Davis, of Gloucestershire, England, paid
$1,000 for a COW, the "eighth Duchess Of Gene
va" and Mr.. Burwick, of England, secured the
"tenth Dutchess of Geneva" at S35 900. A calf
Of the first named COW was sold for s27 900 to
Mr.. A. j. Alexander, of Kentucky. Mr.. Alex
snder also paid the snug sum of 200 for the
"seventh Duchess of Oneida, )" and Nr. Halford,
Of England, secured the "third Duchess of
Oneida" for $4,000, while Lord Skelmer-
dale, OF England, ran another COW of the
same honorable title, the "hrst Duchess
OF Oneida" mp to $50, 600. The sales amounted
TO S35O,C00 and the stock sold cost Mr.
Campbell S2o,OoO, leaving him q net profit
OF $4,000, and he has a valuable stock
sui remaining. When some time since he i'm
ported blooded stock from England at 5000
and = 900 head he was thought to be crazy
but 1t seems he knew what he was about, as
doubtless do those who paid the fancy prices
for these blooded cows on Wednesday. The
price OF $4,000 paid for blOoded horses Of the
Dexter celebrity was thought to be enormous,
but these prices for short-horns of pure blood
shcw mp yet more remarkable figures. These
prices will naturally inspire good many people
to go to raising short-horns as an easy way of
getting rich; but when single COW costs over
$1,000, it will be seen that it will take some
thing of carital to get stock to go into
business.

Aid for the Fever Sufferers al shrexe.
DOrf.


DisI atehes from Shreveport, La, state that
there is no abatement in the virulence of the
yellow fever there, and say that great suffering
prevails IN consequence OF the city being nearly
depopulated by the panic.
Senator West, of louisiana who is now in
Washington. in order to secure the application
OF immediate relief TO the sufferers has obtained
from President Orton, of the Western Union
Telegraph company, the following order ad-
dressed TO the superintendent of the company
throughout the country:
"lustruct all the managers to send free mess
ages relating to the relief of the citizens of
shreveport, and at the request OF the Governor
or nlted States Senators of Louisiana direct
contributions OF money to be received and
transferred by telegraph without charge"
Ry this very generous action on the part of
the telegraph company money can be forwarded
Instantly to the sufferers, whereas, by the course
Of the mails, it would require some ten days to
&c. there, by which time the needy ones might
be past relief. Any one feeling inclined to con-
tribute something to the aid Of the stricken com
nunity Of Shreveport can send it without ex-
pense by paying il in at any Western Union tel-
egraph station. Contributions are already going
forward from this point. This morning SEN
ator West, IN the course of q couple of hours
collected $500, and sent 1t of by telegraph and
he expects TO raise at least q thousand dollars in
the course OF the day. If the wealthy cities OF
the country should contribute in the same pro-
portion as Washington is doing, and send it off
as promptly, the money supply will be ample
Tor the relief Of the distress at the point named.

Dispatches were received last night by some of
the correspondents OF "independent" and dem
ocratic papers, from their chiefs, instructing
them TO abuse President Grant for appointing
Mr.. A. K. Shepherd Governor. This serves to
illustrate the manner in which the so-called
independent" papers are now run. Their
correspondents are not allowed to write facts
from their own observation on the ground, but
they are instructed from headquarters to s'doc-
tor" their dispatches and letters, and manufsc-
ture abuse Of this and that person Tor political
or private ends. This accounts for the shame
less and laundering misrepresentation sent
away from Washington in regard to District
affairs by correspondents who are supposed to
be men OF some character and intelligence.

FINANCIAL ANB COMMERCIAL.

The stock market on Saturday was for the
moment not a little affected by the announce
ment of the suspension of Kenyon, Cox X Co.,
a house that has possessed the utmost confidence
of Wall street The suspension is believed to
be only temporary, and, should 1t prove so,
hundreds of friends of the company will extend
their congratulations in the same proportion
that they now exhibit sympathy and proffer aid
The exchange, in consequence Of this event,
was in a feverish condition during the early
part of the day, and prices fell off from to ~
per cent. Later, however, there was recovery,
which, in sUme measure, attested the strength
of the market and its natural power of resist
ance to the strongest depressing influences.
