Words of wisdom are these,
written by the editor Of the
Louisville Courier. journal, in speak
ing of David Davis, They are applicable
also to neutrality-suspicious. news
papers, whose fear of giving olTense and
losing patronage makes them contemplate
towards and mere nonerities, politically
and every other way: Independence in
politics, like neutrality ia war, has usually
pure selfshness at the bottom of it. Every
man should be sufficiently Independent
to call his soul his own, to have the courage
Of his opinions, and to be able, within his
party, to make himself and his convictions
felt. Such a man is Mr.. Bayard. But
when a politician sets himself above all
party and parties, isolatcs himself from
political fellowship, he is pretty sure to
be either an impractcable or self-seeker."

AURORA LODGE AND THE ODD FELLOWS
WIDOWS AND ORPHANS RELIEF AssocrA.
TI0N.-A meeting Of Aurora Lodge, l. O..

evening, and, In addition TO a large atten-
dance OF their own members, there were
present Past Grand Masters James g..
Blanks, g. b. Branch, Marion Colbert, and

attendance from other city lodges. All OF
these were interested in the cause which Is
so agitating this old and well known order
viz, the Odd-Fellows' Relief Association.
7. G. Branch stated that this was not a
| new move In the direction for the relief OF
widows and orphans, nor antagOnistic TO
similar associations already organized; but
was intended 10 give relief to the widows
Of Odd. Fellows OF the State OF Virginia,
West Virginia, and North Carolina.
Past Grand Colbert, following z. G.
| Branch, stated that this would give to every
| Odd-Fell0w an insurance on bis lie at a
| much less cost than in any insurance com.
pany or any similar organization. The
plan was based upon strictly business prn.
ciples.
This relief organization was founded and
has Its chief officers in this city, which gen.
tlemsn are well known to members OF the

TIE TOBACCO TRADE.-Considerlb ac-

look occasioDed by the prolonged drought
in most OF the tobaeco-growing sections
In the last few days the market has been
very buOyant, and the advanced prices oI
the past few days have been fully sustained
1t seems TO be the opinion Of most OF the
commission merchants that the market viii
remain firm and active even il there should
come. plenty Of rain, but few, on the
other hand, say that a good general rain
throughout the tobacco territory in the
next few days, would make fine crops, and
that speculation aud high prices would be
Immediately checked. The tobacco manu-
facturers OF this city have been very busy
this summer, aud most Of them report salts
factory profits on their work.
Reports from Louisville, Danville, and
Cincinnati indicate that the crop will be
short and prices consequently higher than
last season.
