Hon. Lewis Lawrence, OF Utica, a devout
follower OF Roscoe Conkling, in burst OF
confidence, the other day told reporter
that Mr.. ConkIing was "blahking" the
Republican party up hill and down every
day, and that be wouldn't be surprised TO
see Democrats voting to send him back as
an Independent 10 company with Simon
Pure Democrat. One Of Conkling's late
expressions, according to Mr.. Lawrence,
was: "Let them drive me into the Demo-
cratic party; there are more gentlemen and
fewer hogs there than with u.s." Let not
the Utica statesman stand upon the order
OF bis going, but so at once.

publican party cannot afford to endorse re-

party capital as would be afforded thereby

branches OF the national Congress in the
elections OF next year for representatives
and senatorial legislatures.-P Philadelphia

Senator ingalls, thinks the Democrats in
the Senate have been weakened by the loss
of Thurman and Eaton. He Is mistaken as

Brown more than makes amends. Had it

The report is that the friends OF Conkling
expect stnedie adjournment OF the New

OF this report is the surprising increase OF
tobacco-culture In Pennsylvania, Il having
gone from 3,467,530 pounds Ia 1870 TO
q, 81, 068 In 1880. The culture OF tobacco
IN Wisconsin Is also becoming an important
industry.
The foregoing is presented In Brddstreet

neciicut, New York, and Pennsylvania
shows that the demsnd Is for cIgar-lo bacco--
