American Newspaper DIRECTORY.

Messrs. Geo. P. Rowell & Co.. New
York, have now handed the publishers
and advertisers of America the twelfth
annual issue of the AMERICAN News
PAPER DIRECTORY. 1t is a large book
of more than a thousand pages has
been compiled with consummate care
and skill, and in manner and matter
is the most complete and satisfactory
Directory of its kind ever presented
to the public. 1t is the result of great
labor, and a book of inestimable value
to the great advertising public. For
more than a dozen years has much
time, enterprise and money been de-
voted to this work-each succeeding
annual being an improvement upon its
predecessor, until its degree of per-
fiction has become such that Rowell's
AMERICAN NEWSPAPER DIRECTORY has
become to the searcher after definite
newspaper knowledge, what the Ameri-
can Cyclopedia has to the inquirer
after accurate general information. Its
classification by States, counties and
lists is perfect its statistics as to cir
culation, population of place of publ
cation, distance from important cen
trail places, date of establishment, and
all other important features connected
with each publication is most thorough
and reliable; SO much SO, that no well
posted business man, whether an ad-
v%ertiser or not, can afford to be with
out it. In a word it is a book worthy
of the greatest of all newspaper agen-

An interview with a Philadelphia
fruit importer by one of the city dailies,
recently, broughtor OFT the following with
reference to bananas: "The yellow
bananas come from Jamaica and Aspin-
wall and the red bananas from Cuba.
The yellow bananas sell the best because
they grow O to the bunch. A bunch
OF yellow bananas average about ten
dozen, and sometimes they average as
many as twenty dozen. while the red
bananas seldom run over five dozen.
Tle punches are sold at about the same
price. so the retailers can afford to sell
the yellow ones for less and still
make q better profit than they can on
the red ones. So you see it is a diff.
cult matter for us to sell red bananas
when we have many of the yellow"
The flavor of the banana depends greatly
on the soil in which it is raised. ia
maica is the most favored in this respect;
the bananas from Aspinwall are drier
and not so rich. The Jamaica fruit is
undoubtedly the best.

The MEETING of the Legislature was
more largely attended this year than
ever before. Owing to the number
of officers holding over there were
but few vacancies to fill, and conse-
quently a bitter struggle for them.
For the good-sized "crumb which
fell to us, we desire to thank the
friends who SO earnestly and unset
fshly labored to secure it for US.
Their number, and zeal in our behalf,
was to us an agreeable surprise. We
pledge them our best endeavors to
merit their continued confidence.

found in crosscut No. Of the ST.

making in the east and west drifts
on the 2700 foot level, though the
heat is still intense in the east
drift. Superintendent Requa, of
the combination shaft, notified the
Savage Company that they could
remove the bulkhead from the
2400 drift any time, as both the
hydraulic and old pumps are in
perfect order. Connection will
soon be made between the 2SO0 foot
ana the 5000 foot levels of Yellow
Jacket. There is no sign Of fire in
the old slopes of the Bonanza
mines. They are now prosecuting
east on the 2400 foot level. The
Potosi face crosscut is 10 quartz of
little value.

The Indians have at last learned
how to cut telegraph wires. Fear
or superstition have hitherto de-
barred them from this handy piece
of deviltry. 1t will not be long be-
fore they will learn the kpack of
throwing a railway train off the
track, with result of their "goipg
through" the passengers in a way
that would make the exploits of
the James brothers seem gentle

should be thoroughly attended to

probably has not been year since
1852, with the exception of that
when the Democrats were foolish
enough to run Greeley, when Penn.
sylvania would not have been
Democratic on free vote and q
fair count. Never even In the
Tweed regime did there begin to
be in the city Of New York half the
manipulation of the vote which
the Cameron agents have uni
formly practiced in Philadelphia.
In the Empire State the Political
status Is highly interesting. There
is deep but restrained undertone
Of bitterness between the two fac.
tions of the Republican party
which recalls the adsge that "still
waters run deep" The Conven-
ton, for the first time in years,
has been held in the metropolis.
According to surface Indications
the Conkling element has been
submerged. His followers are re-
ported to be in q large minority.
But the Republican politician In
New York is very facile creature
and can turn his coat with the fa-
cility with which the leopard can
change his spots. No wanderer CT
old ever showed more readiness to
respond to the voice of TIE syren
than he to the suggestions Of pat
ronage. The same legislature
which, last winter, elected Mr..
Conkling's friend Plat Senator, in
midsummer declined to re-elect
either Of those gentlemen. This
result was brought about by a
skillful application of the Federal
patronage through methods which
Blaine and Robertson were thor
oughly skilled in. This time the
boot will be on the other leg, and
the patronage will be used in the
interest Of Conklin g, unless Presi.
dent Arthur has lost all his old.
time devotion to his friend. Should
Conkling make his appearance In
the Convention, we expect, not
withstanding all reports to the con.
trary, to see him mold its action.
A large list of important State Off.
GERS are to be elected in New York
In Novem Der, and it is not unreal
sonable to look for q Republican
detection which will at least bal
ance any mischief which the de-
lection of Kelly could do the DEM
ocrats.
On the whole, We do not
regard the situation as specially
favorable to any brilliant DEM
ecratic victories this Fall.
