In Lucas county they expect to complete a
scheme which will divide the vote of the
Nationals IN Toledo, and In Pike they are
making special efforts to increase the Nation
al vote. In all the counties above given, ex-
cept Lucas, strong efforts are to be
made to increase the National strength,
because the Democracy are divided on the
financial issue, while the hard-money Demo-
Gratis will be offered anything but legislative
positions if they will come directly into the
Republican ranks. The Nationals are to be
encouraged in a substantial manner, in order
that Republican strength may come mega
lively. 1t Is safe to say most of the fnan-
cial aid which that party will receive will
come directly from Republican sources, and
IN many OF the counties Republicans are pre-
tending to act with them for the double pur-
pose of making contributions and also that
they may exercise their persuasive eloquence
upon De" ocrats who lean to the soft-money
side of the house. They tell them that the
nomination of Tilden is "A toregone conclu-
sion; that ne is pledged to hard money and
the bondholders, and that their only hope
and salvation is to- Join this new party, which
has the chances In Its favor IN 1880. Said
leading Republican of Cleveland to me the
other day: 81 am afraid the help we pro-
| pose to give the Nationals WILL in the end,
prove boomerang-It will in time build that
party up to our destruction" The details of
the spring canvass are being looked after by
the Republicans, as the following circular
will show:
OHIO REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE Rooms, /
COLUMBUS, February II, 1879. (
DEAR SIR-We desire to call your atten-
ton to the approaching spring elections. If
we are successful in electing the local officers
| in April it will have a good effect upon the
approaching State canvass. If, upon the
| other hand, the Democrats, under the pre-
tense that politics should not enter into local
elections, succeed In defeating our candidates
In Republican precincts, 1t will demoralize
our forces and diminish our strength. We
| therefore desire to urge upon you the i'm
portance of seeing that good men are nomi-
mated at our caucuSeS, and that they are
elected In April. The legislature to be elected
at the next State election will have to choose
United States senator, which increases its
importance. In order, therefore, that the
Republicans may have a fair chance at the
polls, we urge you to look well to the election
of your trustees, that you may be fairly rep
j.
1t is your duty to pay special attention to the
selection Of candidates for the legislature
As the time for putting candidates in the
Held will soon be upon you, you should begin
to cast about you for tle best and strongest
men for that Office. Canvass the matter
thoroughly. Put your best men forward.
J. j. ROBINSON, Chairman.
Hamilton county is much coveted prize, but
the Republican managers are determined to
have majority in the legislature without it.
They will not relax their efforts to carry it,
but, should they fail, they will take charge of
it through the legislature. The Republicans,
as a party, are not divided in any sense.
Their platform will be the same as that OF
last year, and their leaders have agreed that
no personal preferences shall hamper their
work. Hayes and his administration will be
left to take care Of the past, and the party,
as such, will look only to the future. They
have agreed upon Taft, and he will be nomi-
mated. They will avoid the question of their
candidacy In 1880, because they know that,
while the leaders generally are for Grant,
their voters are not solidly with them.
Eggs and Egg Culture.
Boston Cnltirator: ''The traffic in eggs in
this country is estimated by competent au-
thoritv to equal $l50000000 per annum.
New Y ork receives In single year $50, 900
barrels of eggs, valued at $4,000, 900. In
1877 there were exported from this country
O,AOZ, AOO uOHsH eggs NdluSu DIT FOOO, lU1. IL
is claimed that Philadelphia consumes daily
$4,000 dozen eggs. The approximate re-
ceipts of eggs in Boston for the year 1873
have been as follows: 107,627 cases, con-
tanning 49 dozen each; 300 boxes, con-
tanning 100 dozen each, and II, 783 barrels,
containing T9 dozen each. These figures
give, as a result, 16S, 40 packages, contain
ing 5 515, 652 dozen eggs, or rs, 1877 $50 single
eggs 1t is estimated that fully IS per cent |
of all receipts are consumed in Massachu- |
sets, and that about 80 per cent. are con- |
sumed in and near Boston. In nearly all |
small towns and villages enough eggs are |
raised to supply the local demand. The |
number of eggs consumed in the State, |
when computed, is foand to be at an average |
of fifty two eggs per year to every inha bitant,
or one egg per week. All these eggs come
to Boston from various sections in about the
following proportions: Eastern eggs, mostly
from Name, by boat and rall, at all seasons
of the year, "a per cent. Of total receipts;
northern eggs, from northern New York and
Canada, 81 per cent; p. K. |. eggs, from
Prince edward island, between the months
of April and November, II per cent; west.
ern eggs, 10 per cent, and southern eggs,
from Virginia, during a few months IN the |
spring, per cent. OF northern eggs the |
greater part comes from Canada, and this
trade Is constantly increasing. A single Bss-
ton firm, the largest receiver of eggs in this
market, handled nearly six hundred thousand
dozen eggs last year"
