while tending sheep on Lena creek,
70 miles from San Antonio. Their

to the people OF New York who is presidents
OF the United States. We should tafce TO

First. In view Of the many extraordinary
abuses to which the election laws Of Con-
gress are prostituted, and the opportunities
for corruption and oppression which they
afford in the management Of bad men, and

AN IMPROVEMENT IN THE TOBACCO CROP
MORE PLANTS SET OUT. -.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch
... -'t-, nuAUGUsT Z, 1876.
Having received your long and valuable
article of the Sd instant, on the condition Of
the tobacco crop OF Virginia, l ask only to
CALI attention to the fact that your many
advices We're given just prior to the long
and effective rains that continued for seye-
raj days over the entire section OF tobacco
growing country, and to say that during
the several days OF rainfall and moist
weather much planting was done in all
parts OF the State, which will make in the
eight or ten weeks it will have to stand q
large addition Of medium and low-srade
leaf to the estimate made from your dry
weather reports. About ten days ago l
passed across several counties by rail, and
yesterday retraced the path. l found the
improvement in the appearance OF Doth
corn and tobacco not only noticeable Dut
striking. =.
Your estimate OF third OF crop from
your general reports was doubtless corTect,
but the plants set since, and the improve
ment from the timely and favorable season,
will surely justify an estimate now OF haf u
crop or more. The remarks now current
about the crop indicate that little oflsnt 10
bacco will be made, but I am OF opinion
that the crop, being small, will be closely
watched and highly nurtured, whilst the
advantage in barn-room will greatly facili-
tate the handling and following OF the crop
through the curing process a favorable
season henceforth, which is strongly indi-
Gated, will astcnish the most, hopeful in its
Improvement of the weed, with yield little
contemplated. Leaving all having an in
terest to form their own conclusions from
the mere mention Of facts, beg pardon for
NV voluntary suggestions. OBSERVER.

The words which Tell from the Bishops nps.

At the close Of the morning services the

there was small amount due for expenses
in fitting up the building for dedication.
This the congregation was asked to liqu1.

At hali-past 4 P. n. yespers were ceie-

. The small but growing Catholic church
here Is greatly gratified at the good start
taken by the church at its dedication to God.
The church, 1t Is known, has received great
encouragement from other churches here,
showing the true spirit Of cathoiclty which
pervades the community.
The Conservatives here are delighted with
the letters OF acceptance of the nominations

Tennessee fired her first gun since the
nomination OF Tilden and Hendricks on
the Sd instant in an election Of county
officers in which party lines were rs rigidly
drawn as would have been in the presi-
dental election. So far as heard from the
State has gone almost unanimously for the
Democratic-C Conservative ticket 1t IS
glorious news to inform you that Cadet
trader-and-Salary-Gr Roderick Ran
dom Butler, ex-member Of Congress from
the First district OF Tennessee, hns been
beaten for circuit Judge by about twenty
five hundred majority in district hereto
fore Radical by many hundred. Hon.
John A. McKinny, Conservative, was noml-
mated by the Conservative Convention, and,
like the noble Mcfarland has sent Roderlck
Random "where the woodbine twineth."
Butler, as you know, is one OF the most
reckless Radicals extant, but, thank Heaven,
he is how laid low, never to rise again.

The RESUMPTION AcT.-All the Virginia
members OF the House of Representatives
who voted on the question at ali voted last
Saturday for the bill to repeal the re-
sumption act-that is to say, all except
STowELL, who can hardly be considered a
Virginia member. HARRIS and TERRY did
not vote.
We trust that this vote will result to the
benefit OF the Democratic party. The re-
sumption act has done evil, and only evil,
and evil continually. Yet, strange to say,
many prominent Democrats, including Mr..
HEwETT, the chairman Of the National
Democratic Executive Committee, were
much opposed to its repeal.
