modern fashion OF adjoining ladies hats, bon

All the corners OF the earth had been ran
sacked to satisfy this new craze. Whole

birds We'd with each other In wealth OF color

may be purchased; but here is shop full q

utica Correspondence New York Herald
Well aware of the interest felt in political
circles as to the announcement which the
Belmont committee appointed to consult with
spondent called upon him at his farm In
Deerfield, and said, in broaching the object Of
the visit: II am requested by the New York
Herald to call upon you and get your views
with regard to the actioD OF prominent Demo-
Gratis who held 9 meeting at Mr. Belmont's On
Saturday"
The Governor replied that he knew nothing
about what was said or done upon that occa-
sion beyond what he had read in the report
sent to the Associated Press, and he knew no
who were in attendance than any other per-
son who had read the morning, papers: He
was advised that a meeting wO4ld be held by
prominent men for the purpose OF bringing
about harmony in the Democratic ranks. He
had no idea that any one thought OF naming
him as candidate for Governor, as that was
thing out Of the question. He was not
merely unwilling to be a candidate, but he
was unable to do the duties OF the office OF
governor OF this great State. 1t would not
executive chair one whose years and ill health
would disable him to perform in person the
great ana varied duties of the station. In
many oHlces most of the work can be done
6y assistants, put the duty OF the Governor OF
deciding upon the propriety and constitution
atty OF laws, OF seeing to all things that con-
cerned the interests Of the State, and taking
care that al OF Its laws are faithfully executed,
are obligations that cannot be given to sub
ordinates. This State has a population 81
about five millions, made up of varied nations
aities. about one-half OF whom are dwellers
in cities. The mere duty OF examining peti-
tons for pardons, with which he is solely
vested, Is a great labor put upon him bv the
constitution. There is always discontent
when it is felt that any of the executive pre.
negatives are exercised by other than the
rightful authority.
