From our regular correspondent
WASHINGTON, june %, 1873.
There is much gossip here with re-
gard to the lobbying of Mrs. Winnie
Resm- Hoxie to prevent her husband
being legislated out of Office in Wash.
ington by the new form of District
Government. Putting aside the pro-
priety of the lady's method Of conduct
ing her campaign by smiles and blow
ing kisses from the gallery of the
Senate, il is against the code of the
regular army for any one related to one
of Its officers TO attempt to influence
Congress to assign him to q coveted
position. In striking contrast to the
instance cited is the conduct Of Mrs.
Sharpe. Mrs. Grants sister. Her hus

ngSecretary Sherman has issued
a letter in regard to the condition of
the treasury for specie resumption,
in which some important facts are
set forth. His estimate of the
amount of coin which will be on
hand January ] for resumption pur-
poses, is $134. 231, 1875. He reports,
however, that there is much larger
quantity of coin in the treasury
than this, but there are liabilities
which it must be held to meet. 1t
is not at all probable, however, that
it viii all be called for by the claim
ants. In the same letter he makes
an estimate of the per capita paper
circulation in:the Bnited States. as
compared with that in France,
Great Britain and Germany. The
estimates arerespectively as follows:
$14.65, $12.4s, $3.50. $3.46.

n@ The New York Shipping List
gets great deal of truth into a
small space when it says: "a very
common error among business men
of limited experience is that of
economising in the matter of adver-
Using whenever times are dull, Fro
fits small and prospects not over
promising. This is the rock upon
which many business men are shat
tered. But the more experienced
and successful merchant realizes
the fact that when trade is dull, it is
the more necessary to keep his name
and his wares prominently before
the public, in order the more surely
to effect the sale of his merchandise.
When trade isIgood active" buyers
are plenty, and quite apt to ask for
what they want, but when the
wheels of commerce revolve slowly,
and business is sluggish, it often
timas becomes necessary for mer-
chants to seek for buyers.

aledict0ry.

Four months ago made my bow
to the.public as the editor of this
paper; and.at that time I expected
the situation would be permanent.
The FARMER has been published
during these four months entirely
in the interest of the Democratic
party. Mr.. Morgan has had no
other object in view than the cleo
ton off a pure Democratic ticket,
and as that object has been accom-
plished, the publication Of the
paper In his name will cease with
this issue. Mr.. Morgan authorizes
me to say that he has never sought
to make money from the party with
this paper; he has never had prom
ises of pay for the support we have
given to the party, and he has never
received any.
Not being acquainted with the
printing business, it was with great
= =
reluctance that Mr.. Morgan was
first induced to take the manage
ment of the FARMER on, his hands,
and it was after agreat deal of per-
suasion that he became proprietor.
The Office will next week be turned
over to Mr.. w. g. Kentzel, very
deserving young gentleman, with
superior journalistic abilities, and
withal practical printer. Mr..
kentzels will continue the FARMER
with the same glorious old standard
that it has upheld in the past. His

to those of our subscribers who

earnestly solicit a continuance of
their support to that gentleman.

extend my warmest thanks to those
people of the parishes Of St Tam

extended courtesies to me individu-
ally, since my advent into Coyington

A HERALD reporter met up with
lucky man yesterday, at least, II what
he told was true, and as he Is candi-
date for county office 1t would be
wrong to doubt his veracity. The story
goes like this: "a year ago he awoke
one morning and 1t was rainy
Friday, the unluokiest day OF all oths
ers, to find his valuable mare gone,
whose sudden disappearance was soon
followed by that of fine COW and a
thoroughbred Berkshire SOW. Diligent
search for the missing animals
proved futile, and he had
long since given up all hopes
OF finding them when about a week
ago man came to him and told him
where he could find his mare. Here
his lucky star arose and he went In
search, finding her and spanking
young colt with her. Close by he
found the COW and calf with her.
He was so overjoyed that he did not
take time to look for the missing SOW,
but drove the new found animals
home. But a spell OF luck was on him
and he could not escape good fortune,
for on getting out the next morning
there stood tho sow at the gate with
litter of young pigs"

A dispatch from Constantinople snys
an official dispatch to Turkish repre-.

emeute which took place In that city
yesterday: About thirty refugees en-
tered the garden OF the palace, inhab.

shouts OF "Long live the sultan"
The sentinels opposed the entry of
these men into the palace and were
fred upon, one being killed. Troops
arriving, the assailants were driven
back. Some were killed and wounded
on both sides. ALI Suavi, who APP
peared to have acted as organizer and
leader of the attack, was killed. The
affair has no other consequences.
Public tranquility is undisturbed.
In the house OF commons this even-
ing, Sir John Halker, attorney general,

There is no reason to believe that the
United States will depart from the ob-

discussing the responsibility resting on
the governments of Russia and the
United States, since there is no reason
to suppose that they would violate
their respective engagements.

thousand refugees assembled to day
and sent deputation to the porte ask

had failed and sickness was increasing
