STATE POLITICS.
A Quiet Talk With Senator Tarr.

Question-Who is the favorite with
the Democrats OF your county as their
candidate for Governor OF this State?
Answer-Johnson n. Camden is un-
doubtedly the first choice here for Gov
ernor. He is believed to he entitled TO
it 10y the party next. Our second would
he the courtly Col. Faulkner, OF the
Second district, on account oi name and
prestige Of former times.
Q.-WhOm do the Republicans prin-
cipally favor as their candidate for Gov
ernOr2
A.-Among our Republican friends
DIR. Thos. logan, OF your city, is the
greatest favorite. His chances might he
said to be at least two TO one over any
other candidate.
Q.-Wh0 is talked OF for most OF the
other positions or either State ticket?
A.-For Superintendent OF Free
Schools, President Pendleton's we'll
known ability places him above every
other competitor as candidate. For
Attorney-General, the present incum-
bent, General White. Is well known here
and very popular, il any one is mem
toned, 1t is him. For other State obi
GERS but little is said, the Republicans
don't seem to care anything about
them?
Q.-Who is the iavorite for Congress
among the Democrats in your district?
A.-Col. Ben. Wilson is the iavorlie
for Congress here. Most Of our farmer
friends think Col. Ben. works hard and
does his work well; this goes great
way with the laboiing class.
Q.-Who are the Republicans talking
OF making their candidate
A-No candidate offering. General
Duyal has been mentioned, but his
friends say lac will not run. The only
way they can do is to have man to
make the canvass, and pay him with Il
pOstonicc, like they did last time. That
is, if they have the postohiCe to give.
OWN the judicial amendment to
the Constitution probably receive a ma
jOrity in your county,
Alt will most likely carry. ltsgen-
cral features, however, are but little
understood among the mass Of voters.
Q.-Who is the lnvorite among the
Democrats ior President, and who
among the RcpubliCansl
A. The name Of Tilden has iamll-
lar sound among the voters here. This
and on account Of his being unjustly
dealt with before mai es him the iavorite.
Next to him, Judge Thurman is the Ia
yorite. Blaine is the leading Republi-
can candidate here, very few, even ol
the soldiers, iayoring Grant.
Q-lIow are sheep and cattle win
tering1
-Unexceptionally we'll Tor both.
fne Cheering prospect fOf WOOL has
caused the farmers To take better care oi
sheep tins winter, and on them there IL
a decided improvement.
q What is the condition OF the wheat
crop in your county, and what II prom
ises az compared with previous years.
A-The growth Of the wheat crop is
unusually good; about one-quartcr
more was planted than usual. Nothing
hut heavy late irosts can prevent as good
il not a better yield than last year.

The Question Of Amnesty.

PRIs, February l2.-ln the Chamber
Of Deputies to-day, Louis Blanc made
an eloquent speech in favor OF his mo-
tiop ior plenary amnesty. De Freycinet,
tie President OF the Council, replied.
He said amnesty, to produce its proper
effect, should have its root in the public
mind, but this was far from being the
case at present, except in large towns.
The country was not prepared 20
favor complete amnesty, and would
only become favorably disposed,
therefore, when it had ceased
10 he an instrument oi political agita.
ton. In order to bring about the adop-
ton OF oiamnesty by the country it was
necessary that the Government should
be strong and possess that moral force
which would be bestowed by the sup
port OF the whole majority. DE Frey
cinet urged the partisans OF amnesty 10
unite with the Government in estab-
fishing perfect calm throughout the
country, and give effect tO the reforms
which the nation desired, and then the
Government would, perhaps, be strong
enough To propose plcnary amnesty.
Blanc's motion was then rejected.

SAS FRANCISCO, February l2-The
best grounded opinion, as regards the

WNsHIXGroS. February H.
There is ~ question now before Con-
gress that eXcitcs more interest than
the Iutrr-Ocran,r Canal, and while the
majority ut the senate is Tor making
haste slowly. the friends oi this great
work are for making haste rapidly. The
House special committee is constantly at

its chairman, Is giving great labor 10
everything concerning 1t. Resolutions
asking for Information a. to the com
mercc and kind ui products conveyed
irOsu tpg Atlantic To the Pacific have al
ready been introduced, and Information
as to every Kind bearing upon the pro-
ject is To be obtained from the depart,
meuts without delay. Ii Is evidently
the purpose oi the Iy. Gates OF the canal
now here to stir up the people all over
the country 50 that a pressure may be-
brought upon Congress Tor immediate
action which mcMbrrS cannot resist.
Not ONLY will an appeal To- the interests
oi the West ami South be- made, but the
icalty oi those sections tO the Monroe
doctrine will be invoked in behalf ot
this StupCudoUs enterprise. The pros
poets are. therefore, that the Inter
Ocrauic Canal will absorb as much ot
the Congressional attention Tor the re-
malnder Oi the session as any that can
possibly come before thasPgesent Con
eress, and IL may prove safety valve
against blOOdy-shirt debates. J. It does
this u will bring with present benefits.
