What is this rumor floating about in the
air that the friendsof Senator CoNKLING are look
ing out Tor New York newspaper to advocate
his nomination and election2 II seems they
are not satisfied with the Times and CONNER
cidl, and II IL even said that they are dickering
with Mr.. JAY GOULD for the Tribune Let them
beware of that speculation. The Tribune is val
liable to Mr.. GOULD because he Is able to make
It 1T In with other forces in his predatory stock
jobbing schemes but no candidate for Presi-
dent can AFFORD TO buy the concern of his
hands at anything like the prlco It cost him.
Five hundred and fifty thousand dollars Is n
great deal Of money, and the Tribune is ruined
by GouLDs possession. and by the silly and
costly building the young editor has erected.
Instead Of buying GOULD out, better make an
arrangement with him for the support Of the
piper lie will not hagcle about the terms; all
that he insists upon Is that his paper shall stand
by his stock jobbns schemes and talk sweeily
about love, culture, society, and tender feelings

the Tablet has produced some surprise In GER

that both in Brooklyn and Philadelphia Brother

FARMERS are doing we'll when all other
classes are doing little or nothing The first
wants of society have to be supplied at any
rate, and that is something to be depended
on. People must live before they can make
mutual profits and the products OF the soil
are the first things that are called for. If
prices are lower than they once were, SO are
the prices Of commodities to the farmer who
has his products to sell. He gets his advan-
tage in one way, if he does not in another.
If agriculture is to be relied on in a period
of general stagnation, it certainly shows that
it contains within itself the elements of a
permanent and solid prosperity. And its
strongest recommendation is that it always
inculcates the lesson that it is folly to make
haste to be Massachusetts, Plouglsmaaa.
New CLoD CRusHER.-The Scientific
american thus describes a new clod chusher,
the invention of Mr.. John M. Crockett, of
Texas:
This implement consists of two series Of
flat parallel bars, which are curved or bent
twice, and attached at their ends to the same
cross bars. The bends Of the bars OF one
series are at such points as bring them out
of alignment with those of the others; and
hence when clod escapes being cut by a
bar Of one series, it will ordinarily pass lat
orally under the bar, and thus be subjected
a second time to q crushing action. The
clods are thus broken up, and the land lev
eled. The implement is light, cheap, strong
durable and effective.
