France and TripOli.

LONDON, July 2S.-The correspon-
dence between England and France
on affairs in Tripoli has been issued. a
despatch from Lord Granville, Foreign
Minister, to Lord Lyons, ambassador
to France, on the 18th lust, states that
in view of the unqntstloDed incorpora-
ton of Tripoli in the Turkish Empire,
. well as its close proximity to Egypt,
Her Majesty's government could not
regard Interference of whatever descrip-
tion on the part OF France IN Triroli in
the same manner as they viewed occur
rences in Tnnis. Lord Lyons having
laid the substance of the a. owe despatch
before NJ Bartholelny S. Hilaire, the
French Foreign Minister, was assured
by him that France regarded Tripoli as
indisputably a part of the Ottoman
Empire, and that she had 10 intention
whatever either of invading it or
attempting to establish any exclusive
or predominent intiuence in that
country. The remonStrances which
had been addressed to the Porte, he said,
had been mild and friendly and had not
been made until France had very good
reason to believe that Turkish emissa-
ries from Tripoli had been stirring up
disaffection in Tunis. The Porte had
been warned of the danger which must
ensue if a fire was lighted in Tripoli
which should spread to Tunis, and it
had been assured that If, contrary to
her hopes and wishes, France was
driven to military measures, she would
take defensive measures only and
French troops would not cross the
frontier of Tripoli. The French Minis.
ter declared that it would be a real and
great sorrow to rim if any thing should
occur to weaken the close and cordial
understanding between France and
England in regard to Egypt. The Ger
respondence concludes with despatch
from Lord Granville to Lord Dutferin,
Ambassador at Constantinople, instruct
ing him to advise tho Porte to exer-
else great prudence In not giving
causes of plausible complaint 70

tectiy fair lottery, yet read of the facts
connected with some others success
with the greatest Interest. The event
that now agi.ates the staiu Quaker
borough of West Chester, Pa, is that
the chance fell upon Mr.. Jesse f. Webb,
one of the best and most favorably
known business men there. He las II
large jewelry store on Gay street, in
West Chester. Mr.. Webb was fortunate
enough to hold half of ticket No. 1S,ll2,
that call c for the capital prize in the
last drawing of the Louisiana State
Lottery, held in New Orleans on the
18th inst. This entitled Mr., Webb to
$4,000, one-half ofthe capital. He was
found by a reporter behind a counter IL
his store courteously Y receiving the CON
gratulations of his friends, and as cool
and self possessed about the matter as
though it was an everyday occurrence.
Mr.. Webb bought his ticket on the 9th
OF July by sending by mail in a regis
tered letter one dollar, addressed to NJ.
A. nauphin, at No. 2l2 Brodway, New
York city. He had always heard that
the Company paid its prizes promptly,
and ne thought he would try his luck,
and therefore sent onSl for Il ha!fticket,
1t was not more than wv" days after the
drawing that he was informed by teie-
graph that he had drawn half OF the
capital prize,a and that the money would
be paid him when he desired it. Mr..
Webb said he knew the money was all
right, and therefore WAS III no hurry
about it, but he sent for it promptly,
and received it nevertheless without
any discount except the slight express
charge. He will try a chance In the
next drawing, which takes place Au-
gust ., as he knows of no concern that

Tho Mad PrOh1bitiOaists OF tho
Buckeye Stats-Defeat OF their
Furposs 10 Defeat the Republt.
aAD TlAkA al.

CINCINNATI, July 27.-It is becom
ing daily more evident that the Ohio
Prohibitionists overreached themselves
In their recent convention for the nom.
inatiOn of State officers. The demands
of the convention, it Is clear, cannot be
conceded, and even these who run
have had time to observe that the spirit
of the convention was forbidding. The
leaders of the movement, i1npelled part
ly by spite and partly by vanity, dis
tinctly avowed it as their purpose to
chastise the Republican Party. 1t was
not claimed that anything more could
be accomplished than the defeat of the
Republicans. No one suggested that
the Temperance people had anything to
hope for from a period of Democratic
rule. On the contrary it was known
that under Democratic rule the tenn
perance cause would suffer. The whole
effort of the convention, therefore, was
to secure the defeat of the Republican
ticket, to the serious disadvantage of
the very people who were being called
upon to bring it about. Several of the
delegates, recognizing the absurdity
and danger of the situation, attempted
to advocate a different course; but their
voices were drowned, and they were
driven back to their seats amid hlsses
and cries of ''remporizer % "Traitor !"'
and "Liar -
The convention was ruled b. a spirit
80 stubborn and tiercely intoerant that
itsbetter elements were suppressed amid
pandemouium rivaling that of the
most violent and noisy of Democratic
assemblages. Gradually all this is
coming to be understood by even the
ost unreasoning of the Prohi hibitionists
and the purpose Of the people of this
class to vote the straight Republican
ticket is being frequently expressed.
Aside from the absurd and spitefu posi-
tion in which the Prohibition Party has
been placed, it is seen that under the
existing circumstances President Gar
fields State must come to his support
by strong and cordial Endorsement of
his Administration, at the polls this
Fall. Only the most weighty consider
ations, it Is clearly seen, would render
any other course wise or even excusa-
bic. Republicans are, therefore, rapid
ly becoming confident that. with the
temperance movement dead and the
Democratic enthusiasm resting entirely
upon a pocket book, the election will
be theirs by u very handsome II ajority.

a,mong the members present was the

P t"n nuality for quality, as in London.
T Concerning the tariff, lie said that
while the average duty on all articles
imported is forty five per cent, paper
has protectisn Of only twenty-five per
cent. on ordinary qualities and thirty.
five rer cent Oh tine. He announced
himself as in favor of aiding in the es-
adjustment OF steamship lines to oSouth
America, so that American manutac-
tnrers can send their goods there other
than by way Of London. He thought
it would be as well for the government
to pay for prompt mail lines to for
eign ports as for "Star routes" in West
ern Territories. In Germany, a few
wears since, he found mill running on
!. peculiar kind OF paper for Brazil. He
found on his return that he could make
that paper cheaper than the Germans,
could, but he could not put it down in
Brazil as cheap as the Germans did,

Poor Crops In Prussia.

A special despatch from Washington,
DC, says: Consul Des Bois, OF Aix-la
Chapelle, reports to the Department oil
State, under date Of May 26, that the
oat crops in the mountainous regions of
| Rhenish Prussia (the principal staple
OF the inhabitants) are in tlourishipr
condition, but in the low lands vegeta-
tlon is extremely backward in cOnse.
quence of the continuous cold, dry
weather and sharp winds which pre-
vailed through March and April and
wel into Nav. Latterly The tempera-
tule has moderated and brought some,
but insufficient, rains. The crops, par
ticularly those of wheat and rye, have
suffered considerably y from severe wealth
er. Rye is very small, and ifthere in
not copious rainfall at an early date
the farmers will only realize one half
and in some places one-third of their
wheat crop. Formerly rye was the
poor mans daily bread, but last year,
for the first time in the history of Ger
many it was cheaper to sat pure wheat
bread. This was brought about by the
enormous importation of American
wheat. Up to 1879 the cost of wheat
"f'o =" I"i 'cllL III iSutt tldil tubG vi rye
hut last year any slight difference ex-
listing was in favor of wheat. The aver
age prices range at present as follows.
Wheat, first quality, per 100 kilosx.
s. A; second quality, s. %. Rye. first,
quality, per 100 kilos, S. 80 second
quality, s. 81 Oats. per 100 kilos.
S3 SO. Thus it is seen that. through
the great productive power Of America,
pure wheat bread which two years ago
was considered luxury in the home
Of the German laborer, has now become
AL article of every day food.
The latest information frcm Holland
shows that hundreds of acres Of wheat
have been ruined by the nnfavorable
weather and have been ploughed up
and sown with oats and barley.
Altogether the farmers in this coun-
'ry have a most unpromising outlook,
)ut the consumers are unconcerned, for
American wheat is abundant and l5 per
cent. cheaper than the home product.
