Farming In England and Ire
Lnlld. .-.....
From the London Times.

From the LONDON Times
The circumstances of farming in
England and of farming in Ireland are
totally distinct, yet it is difficult to be-
lieve that Numerically opposite con-
clusions can be rightly drawn from
them. We have agricultural distress
in Great Britain as well as in Ireland,
and the causes of this distress are sub
stantially the same in both islands.
We have had extremely adverse sea-
sons, and there has been q very sharp
and sudden development of the COM
petition of the American producer in
our markets. A low price of grain
NAV have affected the English farmer
principally, while the Irish farmer has
more acutely felt a low price of cattle
and of dairy products !; but in the one
as in the other case the competition of
the Transatlantic farmer is the cause
of this part of the pressure that has
been experienced. Bad seasons have
made up the rest but it is alleged
that though bad seasons may and in
deed must be succeeded by good sea-
sons, the competition of America will
not cease. 1t may be sharper in one
year than another, for, indeed, the
farmer who has fifty feet Of virgin soil
upon which to raise crop after crop in
almost endless succession knows also
what it is to be visited by blights, by
locusts, and by droughts destroying
the promise of his labor. Competition
may thus be abated now and then but
it instantly revives as a permanent force
that must work it's way as long as the
physical conditions are maintained up
on which it depends. What are the
lessons that English and Scotch far
mers draw from these premises. There
are two. The first is that they with
their labor and their capital must to
some degree accommodate themselves
to the displacement Of production by
following it. They have sent over
delegates of their own to the North
western States and Provinces to in
quire and report to them on the pros
poets open to emigrant farmers betak-
ing themselves thither. 1t is evident
that some Of the men of the passing
generation, and many more of their
sons, who would in ordinary course
have grown up to take their places at
home, will transfer their energies and
their resources to the unsettled lands
of Canada, and perhaps of the United
States. By these means the second
lesson of recent experience will be en-
forced. 1t is premature to speculate
on the effect which the competition of
American farm produce will have up
on the rent of the land in this country.

A Horrible Sight.

The vault of Wesley Methodist Epis-
copal Church has caved in, exposing to
view an immense number of bodies, the
rotted cofins being broken by the fall
ing bricks. Twenty or twenty-five years
ago, when the age Of sanitary reform be-
gan, the health authorities caused the
vaults to be closed, and their use aban-
doned. They were then fult 1t was
estimated that fully 5000 bodies had
been deposited in both. AS shelf after
shelf rotted away and fell, under its
ghastly burden, the cofins were more
closely packed, the space at the top
grew larger, and room was made for
more shelves. The topmost had reached
the roof of the arch when the entrances
were sealed, and the earth was filed in
on top. Again and again, in after years,
the rain made holes through the ground,
and at the old entrance the arch caved
in, but the holes were stopped, and no
more thought of it. A big shed was
built over the vaults, in place of the
smaller one that once stood behind it,
and fifteen or twenty tons of coal were
dumped in it. The great weight weak
ened the arches, and they fell with
great crash.-Nea0 York paper.

voice-they willard loud cries of put him
out) if Tilden was named here.
He had been surprised at the remarks OF
Governor Hubbard. The whole question was,
would the convention give to the State of New
York the right to select her whole delegation,
or whether they should be picked up on the
streets of Cincinnati. Would gallant South
Carolina, willing to fight and die for, what she
believed was right, place the hand
of violence on the sacred person of
New York and refuse her the right to select
her own ambassadors here? Would Virginia,
wonld any other State here on this floor? Pause
long and consider we'll before you strike full in
the face the sovereign queen whose credential
we bear on this floor. Loud applause and
cheers.)
II. l.. Westbrooke of Kingston, New York,
occupied the closing five minutes 'of the min
ority's. He asked if the loyalty of the 100000
Democrats represented by these contestants
was doubted. He was sure it was not. These
contestant were not the Tammany hall repre-
sentatives. The Tammany delegates were only
small part of the contestants. He only asked
that the delegates who vote on this question
would vote as fairly and justly as the fairness
and Justice of Tammanv hall demanded.
Rufus W. Peckham, of Alb my, closed for the
majority. He reviewed the fight between Tam
many and the Democratic party Of the State.
The Tammany delegation, with their hands
still red with the gore of the Democratic party,
which they had stabbed. talked of harmo-
ny. 1t would not make votes for the Democratic
party to admit these contestants. 1t would
work to the disadvantage of the party as q
whole. He assured the convention that the 35
electoral votes of New York would in any event
be given to the Democratic nominee of this
convention.
Mr.. Young, OF Georgia, the chairman of the
committee on credentials. was allowed five
minutes to close He said Samuel J. Tilden,
whom these men refused to vote for, was not
before this convention. He wished to God that
he was. Cheers.
The chairman announced the debate closed,
and the roll was called on the question of sub
stituting the minority for the majority report.
1t resulted as follows:

CINCINNATI, June 23.-The only na-les
presented to the convention as Presidential
candidates were Field, Bayard, Morrison,
Hendricks, Thurman and Hancock. The
speakers all went to the platform and spoke
from the presidents desk. The names of
Hendricks, Thurman and Hancock elected
most enthusiasm. Hendricks had great ap-
plause in the galleries but comparatively lit
tie among the delegates. The Hancock
boom was the loudest and longest. There
was more demonstrations among the dele
gates for Hancock than for all the other
candidates. There was no such outbursts at
the names were offered and comparatively
few delegates cheered any of the candidates.
There was only one really good
speech, and that was McSweeney
of Wooster, Ohio, who presented Thurman.
He received an ovation from the Ohio dele
cation when he went to his seat. Voorhees,
presented Hendricks, and DJherty, Hancock,
in fair manner. Aside from these, the

When speech was dull the galleries became
disorderly, and it required very earnest
threat of soaring them to quiet. The gal
leries showed good judgment, for they did
not disturb an entertaining speaker. When
New York was reached in the roll call, all
eyes were turned in the direction of the
delegation, but the chairman asked to have
the State passed, as they had no name now
to present. Payne seemed to be held in
allegiance, as

THE CONVENTION.
TARDY DELEGATES

TARDY DELEGATES.
CINCINNATI June 23.-The delegates we're
| tardy as usual, so when 10 o'clock arrived, the
hour to which the convention adjourned, there
were few in their seats. Visitors were more
prompt, and before 10 o'clock the galleries
were packed with an expectant multitude. The
weather is close and hot and not breath of air
stirring, so that the rapid movement of fans
give lively appearance. The press represen-
tatlVes who have work to do hope for an early
sine die adjournment. Through influence of
the sultry day, brass band has supplanted
the great organ, the latter apparently being
more appropriate for the 4th of July than DO
litical enthusiasm. Wade Hampton and other
favorites of yesterday were cheered as they en-
tered. At 1910 the chairman called the con-
vention to order and introduced Rev. Chas W.
Taylor, a Presbyterian clergyman, of Coving-
ton, KY. temporarily preaching in Cincinnati,
who offered prayer.
COMMITTEE ON RESOLUTIONS.
The committee on resolutions at this morn
ing's meeting, granted the subcommittee fur
ther time to digest and prepare the platform,
and the chairman, Hon. Henry Watterson, was
instructed to report to the convention that the
resolutions were not yet ready, and to ask for
further time on behalf of the committee and
to ask leave to report at any time. The senti-
ment was that the convention should preceed
to ballot for candidates for President and that
the committee have Its report ready some
time during the day. The opinion was ex-
pressed, also, that the convention wouli be
able to adjourn to-day. The members stated
that the length of time required to prepare the
report was not an indication of inharmonv
among members of the committee or of the
subcommittee.
SOLDIERS OF THE MEXICAN WAR;
The reading of the minutes was dispensed
with. Mr.. Statensburg Barke of Indiana offered
the following resolution:
ReS0LUed, That the surviving soldiers of the
war with Mexico, and the widows and orphan
children of soldiers deceased are entitled to
the grateful recognition of the people of the
United States, and Congress ought to cause them
to be placed on the pension rolls on the same
footing with the soldiers of the war of 1872.
The chairman stated this resolution would
under an order already adopted, go to the COM
mittee on resolutions. The chair then asked if
the committee on credentials were ready to re-
port. Pending the answer, much Amusement
was caused by the reading of telegram from
Reynolds Basin, New York, indicating that
bon hres were ready to greet the Democratic
nominee.
The committee on credentials not being pres
ent Mr.. Martin of Delaware, chairman of the
committee on permanent organization, then
MADE the report in accordance with the action
agreed on last night and sent in press report
Mr.. Martin lDel. moved the previous oues-
ton on adoption of the report, but subsequent
~ withdrew the motion. 1t vas moved that
lurther action on this report be postponed until
the committee on credentials had reported

THE SITUATION.

CN0INNATI, June 28.-The city is lively to-
night up to q very late hour, with politicians,
who are discussing the probabilities of to-
morrow on every corner, on theories numerous
and diverse, but there seems
be no Developments or actual changes
in the prospects, and the speculations
in last nights dispatches seem as reliable now
as at the time they were written. The ballot
of to-day is not taken as settling any point
more definitely than street rumor had already
settled it. However, there appears to be a
tendency to regard the Presidential race as
lying between Tilden and Hancock, with the
chances favorable to the former. The Payne
movement will, it is expected, continue for a
part of tomorrow, at least Hancock's strength
has surprised many, but his friends think that
it is likely to be largely augmented tomorrow
on the first ballot taken. The fact that some
$50 votes were scattered around
to day among those candidates
who are not regarded as in any respects for
midable makes it probable that the result of
to-morrow's ballot will be great consolidation
of votes on the more prominent candidates.

PERMANENT ORGANIZATION.
EX-Goy. STEVENSON.


Mr.. Martin, of Delaware, chairman of the
committee on permanent organization, moved
that the report of his committee be adopted.
Agreed to, and the chair named Senator
Mcdonald, of Indiana Senator Butler, of
South Carolina. and Thos. OConnor, of Ten
nessee, as a committee to conduct ex-Gov. Ste.
venson to the chair. This duty was performed
after considerable delay, occ asioned by the ab-
sence from the hall of Mr.. Stevenson. When
the temporary chairman finally presented him.
he was received with hearty applause, and
thanked the convention for the tribute to that
gallant old common wealth, Kentucky, for call
ing one of the humblest of her SOUS to preside.
He then made speech of some length, refer
ring to the antecedents of the great party here
assembled.
A delegate from Kentucky after the speech
was concluded moved vote of thanks to
Judge Hoadley for his able aud impartial per-
fsrmance of the arduous duties of presiding
officer. Adopted, and Judge Hoadley respond
ed in pleasant vein.
MIR. Breckenridge, Kentucky, moved that the
convention proceed to the business of nominal
Ing President.
A delegate from Maryland moved to ad dtourn.
This was voted down nearly unanimously and
the question recurring on Breckenridge's mo-
tion, he explained that he contemplated call
of States for the nomination Of candidates.
Mr.. Preston, Kentucky, moved to allow each
person placing a nominee before the conven-
tion ten minutes for the purpose. This was
adopted and Breckenridge's motion as amend
ed was also adopted.

will proceed to make 81 re of by a little
ceremony that happened to be omitted four
years ago. And here let me serve notice that
every returning board shall be a costing board

by that device to again lob the peO-
spite of returning boards and in spite of cleo
toral commissions and all the gates of hell,
even though the Republican party should carry
the key thereof, shall not prevail against us.
WADE HAMPTON
Senator Wade Hampton, who rose to answer
for South Carolina, received an enthusiastic
welcome. he said it seemed peculiarly fitting
that Massachusetts, and South Carolina, which
were formerly the most widely separated.
should now work together for the peace and re-
newed prosp sperity of the Union, and that both
should second the nomination of Delaware
The South came here and promised 1873 eector-
nj votes to the Democratic nominee if he be
pure, brave and patriotic. The South asked no
place, position or patronage, but solely
to sustain the nominees of the convention
She recognized the fitness of each of the per-
sons named here to-day. They would feel safe
to trust the standards of the party to any one
of them, but they took Bayard because they
believed he was the strongest man, they be-
lieved he would get most of the conservative
Republican votes, and all the Democratic votes
in the country.
Texas was then called and merely stat ed
through its chairman that Texas seconded the
nomination of Hancock, but subsequently
Gov. Hubbard made brief speech,
which was greeted with frequent applause
Strongfellow, of Virginia, seconded the nomi-
nation of Justice Field. Jn~. w. Daniel, Fl I'm
Virginia, seconded the nomination of Hancock.
j. H. Good, of West Virginia, seconded the
nomination of Thurman.
The president then announced the names of
candidates named, and each was greeted with
more or less applause, bat as in previous in
stances, the most applause was accorded to
Hancock.
A Delaware delegate moved to adjourn, but
on the call of States the motion was lost, and
the call of States was proceeded with for a
nominee for President. Alabama, the first
State called, was passed, not being ready to
vote. The roll call resulted as follows.

CHICAGO, June 23.-Foreign advices dull and
unchanged. Opening here lower, 67alc and
8811lc in the same breath for July, and S3c for
August, but afterwards the usual strength was
manifested, prices rapidly advancing and clos
ing strong, July 9Oc bid and 85c bid for August.
This sudden change of tone is attributable to
cable reports of French crops below the average,
and Russian crops poor. The dear clippers
almost below their heads off getting back
their bundles they have slung around 80 liber-
ally the past fortnight. Surely the way of the
transgressor is hard. The receipts of wheat
continue small. The shorts don't take any
comfort in the postings of the line of shorts,
particularly for August, and the year option
must be enormous, and if any confirmed re-
ports OF disaster at home or abroad should be
received, this market would go staving mad.
Corn-More doing, and the market developed
better feeling, though the change is unim-
portant, closing at 951sc for July, $500 for
August.
Provisions-Strong and higher, though the
closing is with the advances LIostly lost; July
$1,000, August $l2. August pork was sold
by some of our prominent operators very liber-
ally and with good deal of confidence. and it
looks very much as if the turning poiut was at,

Seems to Be the General Opinion.

New York Evening Telegram, Ind.
The platform of the Chicago convention
is worthy of the spirit and of the circum-
stances of which it is the product. 1t is
pitiful and ill-made sop. A small amount of
brains must have been wasted in its construc-
tioD. From literary point of view it is dis
jointed, involved, inartistic and spiriLless.
Less exaltation of tone, less real, qualified,
mental effort is displayed in this whole docu-
ment, which is designed to convey to the
world the Republican party's declaration of
faith, than has characterized any one of the
preliminary debates having a relation to the
balloting for candidates. The relative i'm
portance which the representatives of this
once vital and inspired party attach to their
men and their principles is seen in the liter
ary character of this platform. For the
work of choosing and formulating the issues
on which the Republican party is to fight its
next battle the convention sent boy.

CINCINNATI, June "a, l:l5 A. M.-At this
writing it looks decidedly bad for the Payne
boom. The Ohio delegation held meeting,
and eighteen insisted upon standing by
Thurman, and refuse to be transferred
to Payne, SO Ohio will start in for Thurman to-
day. The New York delegation met and Whit
ney Payne's son-in-law, withdrew Payne's
name saying he did so to appease any obiec-
tions which might be had. The withdrawal
was not accepted, and the delegation will meet
this morning to determine how they vii
vote if they drop Payne. If
New York drops him that will
end Payne. The silver talk is on the increase.
There is big boom for Hancock. his friends
claiming 800 votes for this morning balloting.
Everything seems at sea. Then there are indi-
cations of bad blood between the Tilden and
Payne men, and if New York should now drop
Payne, you can be sure that Ohio will stick to
Thurman and not go to any other candidate de-
sired by New York. The belief In general ia
that the nomination will take place to-day, but
have my doubts. Ii. P. II.
