1t is very strange that although
Mr.. Conkling has marched up and
down the State of New York for
three or four weeks, he has not once
been taken for German professor.
The greatest effort of COnkling's life
was when he took the administra-
ton by the ears and compelled it to
go down to New York and take the
stump for Cornell. If he can only
bring Governor Sprague into sub
lection now, he will be "the most
conspicuous figure in American his

Savannah News Florida letter:
AS a general election occurs next
year, and as a consequence labor
will be more or less demoraiized
and unreliable, the outlook for a
good crop in 1880 is not promising.
The entire State viii be closely
canvassed from Pensacola to Key
West, and should Grant be nominal
ted by the Republicans the cam
paign will possess unusual charms
Tor the negroes. Grass may grow
and cotton may fall from the bolls,
but it will be a matter of absolute
necessity that the freedmen should
feast on barbecued meat and attend
mass meetings. Hence, even
should the season be propitious,
the prospects for a remunerative
crop in 1880 is, to say the least,
doubtful.
