THEIR Ch8PS.
A Y ID

The New York Bulletin says the
farmers of Minnesota during the past
season realized net profits largely in
excess of any previous year. After
making necessary deductions for the
loss occasioned by wet harvests, we
have, as fair estimate of the seasons
production, 28,00O,0 900 bushels of
wheat, 15,OOO,OOO of corn, II, 900, 900
of oats, aud good crops of articles of
less Importance. OF wheat there
will be surplus of 20. O00,0O bushels
for export, allowing 5000. 900 for home
consumption and seed. The proceeds
for this wheat are placed at about
$50, 600, 900 and all other farm pro-
ducts at 10000, 900, making total of
$50, 900, 900 to be distributed among
the farming interests of the state, or
rate per capita exceeding $50. The
total crop of the State this year il at
least one-third. or $4,000, 900 greater
than that of last year, while it is ten
per cent. greater in currency value
than the crop of two years ago.
Turning now to the values of goods
purchased by farmers, it will be found
that farming utensils, wearing apparel,
building material and labor are now
from twenty to thirty per cent. less
than in 1873. Add this to the increase
from favorable crops, and it will be
found that the farmer is a, least so
per cent. better off than he was two

THE ELECTIONS.

1t is hardly worth while to attempt
TO disguise our disappointment OF the
result of the Elections in New YORK,
I'ennsylYania and New Jersey. The
victory in Mississippi relieves this
disappointment somewhat, but the
fact is potent that for some cause or
other the Northern masses are still un-
willing to forget the passions and pre-
iudices of the past. We see the South
now almost entirely Democratic, ana
tbe North almost unanimously he
publican. 1t may be that the Demo-
cratic ticket has carried New York. but
bv such a meagre majority, that like the
Republican triumph in Ohio, it amounts
nothing.
It is probable that the result OF these
Fall elections NAV work we'll for the
country, for if the Republicans sue
cess now inspire them with great con-
fdenco as their defeat in the fall OF
1867 made them very cautious, 1t Will
result in tie triumph OF the Demo-
cratic party in the elections next year.
me nomination of Grant for third
term or of some equally Objectionable
candidate would surely end IN the
election of some patriot for President
who would restore good government
and prosperity to our country.

THE POLITICAL SWEEPTA X E.

Elections are held day for state
officers in New York Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts,, Maryland, Minnesota
Wisconsin, and Mississippi, while New
Jersey, Kansas and Virginia choose
Legislatures. In Mississippi mem
bers of Congress ere also to be chosen.
In 1874, Governor Tilden was elected
by something over fifty thou and
majority, while in 1872. Governor
Dix. Republican, was elected by about
the same majority. The election this
wear will be for State officers, other
than Governor and Lieutenant Govern
or. A Legislature is alsoto be elected.
Pennsylvania elects Governor
and State Treasurer. Last year on
small vote the Democrats elected John
w. Latta, Lieutenant Governor by
majority of 4,679- In 1873, Hartranft
Republican, who IS now candidate
for reelection, was elected Governor
by majority of Sc, 627. Judge G. l..
Pershing is his Democratic opponent.
In this State as we'll as in New York
the Prohibitionists have full ticket
in the field.
In Massachusetts the Democrats
have ticket, composed Of William
CASTOR for Governor, and John q.
Adams for Lieuter ant Governor, and
the prospect are fattering for carrying
| this really Republican state. Last
wear CASTOR was elected by a MAORI Y
| of seven thousand, but the rest of
| the Radical ticket was successful ny
large majorities.
The Democrats Of Minnesota have
cnt down the Republican majority to
about five thousand, bat we can har,
ly believe that they will be successful
to-day. This election does not elici'
much interest.
The same is true in regard to Wise IN
sin, although last year the Democrats
and Changers succeeded in electins
their Governor by large ma "rlty
Governor Taylor is candidate for re
election.
The election in New jersey 70
+ members of the Legislature is IN
creased in interest from the fact tina
a United States Senator is to be elect
ed to succeed Mr. Freleighuysen Re
publican. The House eff Represents
tives and eight Senators are to b
elected. Of the thirteen Senator
holding over seven are Republican
, and six Democrats, and of the dir
tricts to elect, six are now representa-
by Republicans and two by Democrats
The present House consists of forty
one Democrats and nineteen Rspubl
cans.
The campaign in Maryland present
some unpleasant features. The Den
ocratic party is divided, and the Re
publicans have no ticket. John LIE
Carroll is the Democratic candidat
for Governor, and J. NJ. Harris
the Citizens candidate. s. Teackl
Wallis who so endeared himself to til
Southern people during the war,
the Independent candidate for Attol
: ney General. We trust whatever ma
be the result in that State no perms
nent injury may be done to IL e party
The friends of good government /
Mary land can lily afford to foster II
, ternaI dissensions.
As Radical as the State of Missi
, sippi has been the electio
, IS commanding great attention
, The Democrats are full of hope, an
expect to carry the state. A Unite
States Senator in place of the neg,
I Senator, is to be elected by the LIE.
