1t has been generally believed that Senator
elect Lapham, OF New York, would act with
the half-breed faction Of the Republican party
in the future, but the New York sun takes a
different view. 1t says: "The half-breed
leaders assume that the Senator-elect will now
act with their faction, for the reason that he
became a candidate for Senator while Mr..
Conkling was in the field, and thus came in
to a~ntagonism with his former political ally.
Those who reason thus will find themselves
mistaken. Mr.. Lspham is a Stalwart of the
most stalwart sort. He will be found work.
ing with the Stalwart branch of his party.
Inasmuch as he is the leading Republican of
the Western portion of the State. his infu-
ence cast for Mr.. Conkling will be a powerful
aid to the ex-Senator's success in the State
onyention."

The long continuance of wet weather has
ruined the prospect for an average crop in
England. This disaster to our English cous-

English gold continues to flow to America
in such alarming quantities that the Bank of
England threatens another advance in its
discount and interest rates with the view to
check it. The Imperial Bank Of Germany,
following the example of the Bank of Eng
land, has also raised its rates of discount and
interest in a vain endeavor to keep the gold
of Germany from following that Of England,
but it is all In vain. The people on the other
side of the Atlantic will not starve, so long
as they can buy American breadstufis and
have the money to pay for it.
