Briggs & Brothers. Quarterly for 1873.

ER's Quarterly for January, 1878, and must
express surprise at the extent and gorge.
business of the work. Its cover embraces
the richest combination of colors we have
ever seen. The front represents the God
dess Flora standing upon pedestal in 4
blaze of gold, while the background is OF
ultramarine blue. The back contains the
g. & B. monogram in deep, rich colors,
embellished with gold. The contents en-
brace 1876 pages of matter relating to the
growth and culture of Flowers, Vegetables
and Plants, including full list of the l, 100
varieties of Flower Seeds sold by this
house, and, we guess, of every known Veg
etable seed. The engravings number near
" 400 and the matter is classified i'll such
a way that the eye strikes any desired por-
ton almost Immediately.
We have no doubt that BRIGGS Il BRO.
point with deserved pride to the several
pages of condensed excerpts from the Press
and from letters from the People, which
allude in the most positive and unqualified
manner to the excellence of the Seeds sold
by this house and their manner of doing
business. They have always been rather
retiring in the way of blowing their own
horn and for this reason we have no
doubt they feel justified in taking up some
space in the Quarterly for that purpose
The four Chromos issued by BRIGGs Il
BRO, including the new and original pic
ture for 1878, are presented on gold tinted
paper, and form exceedingly attractive in
troductory plates. The printing is beau
tiful specimen of the art, and shows to
what perfection the press has been wrought.
The work new type having been bought
by Briggs & Brother expressly for the
present number) was done at the Democrat
and Chronicle office. under the personal
supervision of President of the Rochester
Printing Company, w. H. Mathews, and
the Company needs no better advertise
ment of the quality of its work. The

like the highest style of photography
The Novelties of 1872 are classified under
one head, while those of 1S13-the new

parently, in favor of the will made in 1871,

THE DISAGREEMENT OF JURIEs.-Both
"Boss " Tweed and Mrs. Wharton have
escaped conviction for the present, by the
disagreement of the juries. Preparations
are in progress for new trials, in both cas-
es. In the New York Ring Frauds, the
Post states that an examination Of the ac-
counts in the Comptroller's office and diff
ferent city banks reveals the fact that the
thefts of the Special Board of Audit were
greater than heretofore supposed amount
ing to some $4,000 600. 1t is believed
that the new evidence is sufficient to fasten
the guilt upon even person who received
any of this stolen money, and many poll
ticians who have thus far escaped will be
called to account. 1t is also asserted that
additional startling frauds in the Depart
ment of Public Works have been discover
ed, and the proofs of guilt are complete
The above Board of Audit comprise Tweed,
Connolly and Hall. and Tweed was head
Of the Department of Public Works.

WITHDRAWAL OF Mr.. WAIT AS CANDIDATE
THE SITUATION AT PREsENT-THE POLICY
OF THE DEMOCRATS.
lFRoM THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF The TBlBUNEl
HARTFORD, Jan. 14.-THe NOi1oich Bulletin,
this morning contains letter from the Hon. John T.
Wait Of that city, withdrawing his name as candidate
for the nomination for the Governorshp OF this State
He says: al am not willing to remain in position
where by so doing, might embarrass the Republican
party or prevent harmonious action in the State Con-
vention am indebted TO the Republicans Of Connecti
cut for many honors heretofore conferred me- and
prefer TO do everything on my part that VIII contribute
the Of the party and its principles at the com
ing election" -.
The Interpretation Of this is that If Mr. Wait continued
10 be candidate il would divide the Republican forces
in Eastern Connecticut and possibly result in the nom
nation of candidate from some other portion OF the
state, while his withdrawal substantially unites the
party In that section upon Henry r. Haven OF New Lon
dom whose prospects for receiving the nomination
now exceedingly promising. The only leading candl-
date against him is Henry b. Harrison OF NewHaven.
The call for the Democratic State Convention win be
issued this week The question OF candidates is not
openly discussed at ALL the managers evidently feeling
that is best policy to say little possible until the
Republican programme Is pretty well dehned
