The mystery concerning the appoint
ment OF Congressman Murch's son to a
place by the postmaster of the House is
gradually breaking AWAY. The Wash
ington correspondent of the Traveller
says: There is story current here that
the democrats have captured Representa-
tive Murch, the Maine greenbacker, and
that he will vote with them on the organ
ization OF the House next December
Quite certain it is he has been coquetting
with some of the democrats and has gone
60 tar as to secure an appointment for his
son under the postmaster of the House.
This appointment has recently been made
and it is cited here as evidence that Mr..
Murch is ready to accept fish and loaves
from the democratic table. 1t is known
that the democratic leaders are doing all
they can to make friends with the green
back members. and that they will hesitate
to divide up the patronage under their
control with them is not for . moment
doubted. !" Mr.. Murch's constituents have
been wondering how the boy got his posi-
tion. They viii undsrstand the matter

The Tribune says; The conflict of in
formation regarding the crops has no,
ceased. but the later accounts are de-
cidedly more favorable. A yield of wheat
rs large as that of last year is not ex-
pected. and it is quite likely that such a
yield would be great misfortune. since
foreign advices appear to indicate that the
crops in Europe will be comparatively
full. The more conservative opinion.
however, is that the decrease is not likely
to bring the crop of this country below
that of 1879. then the largest ever known.
The elaborate statistics of The Chronicle
give promise Of a cotton crop tar exceed
ing even the unprecedented yield of 1880.

favorable hereafter

PLANTING THE IVY.
Ivy Ode.
There's q meaning fondly dwelling
In the ivy's sombre green,
Tenderly It's ever telling
OF the glories that have been.
On heroic walls it twineth
Mounts of fame, romance or grief,
And golden memory lineth
Every futt'ring, storisd wreath
So, with loving hands we plant thee,
Our memorial Ivy-vine.
Long to live may heaven grant thee,
And hoary age be thine.
Take, oh plant, our kindiest blessing,
Cover all from plinth to ewes;
Every rough hewn stone caressing
With thy dark and lustrOus leaves.
Then the thought of faces vanished
Shall within us fOndly burn,
When, from college paths long banished,
Homesick feet perchance return.
Then, with something of affection,
Other hearts for US may stir.
When we're brought to recollection
By our sweet remembrance.
