GAMBErrA's CONDITION

Gambettas condition excites The alarm OF
his physicians.
Four physicians are in consultation about
lanciug the abecess in the stomach to secure
an internal discharge. The silment is in
fammation of the cellular tissue inclosing
the cscum of the intestines. Such infsm-
nations result in pblegmon, which, unless it
resolves naturally, will make necessary the
piercing OF the sbscess.
The Prince of Wales sgain made inquiries
in regard 10 Gambeila's condition, express
ing the hope that he may be speedily re-
stored 10 health.

gress had not met then. December 4th Con-
gress met and the question of The tobacco
tax Immediately Jumped 10 the front. Since
that time decrease Of the revenue has been
It's principal feature. For the yesr ending
December 31st, it will be found that the in
ternal revenues have. been reduced at least
81 800, ,00O from those Of the preceding yesr.
The only cause for the decrease which the
Ioternal Revenue Bureau assigns is the to-
bacco tax agitation. That bureau is receiv-
ing letters from its collectors detailing the
stsgnation of the tobacco trade. Manu-
facIurers all over the country are
shutting down and thousands of
people are thrown out of en-
ploymeut The collector for The Richmond
(Va) district says that since the tobacco
agitation cozamenced at least 1000 opera
tiFes have been thrown out of employment
there. D.puiy-Comtiissioner Rodgers was
asked il he did not think there should be a
rebate in case OF tax reduction. He replied
in the Affirmative, on unbrokeu packages.
"Bui," he coniinned, "the rebate would open
up a chance for wholesale frauds. By no
system could we pick out goods upon which
there shou d be a rebate so to prevent
cheating if it were attempted. do not say
there would be cheating, bat that there
could be easily"

Alexandria Affairs.
Reported for THE EVENING SrAR

OCEAN CoMMERCE-Alexandria has always been
able to retain portion OF her former ocean COM
merce so far as relates to exports of breadstuffs
and 1mpOrtattOnS OF salt and plaster. A season
sometimes passed inactive, but while ocean COM
merce IN guano, iron, sugar, liquors and live stock
failed entirely since the war; the enterprise of our
shipping merchants kept up at intervals relations
with foreign correspondents in salt, grain and
plaster. OF late the mercantile enterprise of Mr..
F. A. Reed Co. and other merchants has opened
trade with Cuba in cOOpers' stun, and for sew
eral years past cargOeS have been sent to Matan-
Zas and other parts OF the ever faithful ISLE This
expectation Is novel and more promising than any
which has preceded it here, because these are the
first manufactured products, IL we except -four
and meal, that Alexandria has ever exported.
Labor makes up no 1nconsiderable portion of the
q special importance. There IS. however, con-
siderable division OF labor. OF late the heads of
the casks have been made In Maine and brought
here for export the shocks and hopping material
manufactured here, and the barrel put together in
Cu0a. There Is now In port a large barQue, the
c. +. Ward, which came light from Baltimore, and
is loading with cOOperage.
THE OYSTER TRADE.-Our oyster dealers have
now opened their establishments, the closed sea-
1st to September 1SG having expired. Alexandria
has a considerable oyster trade, which is WIDEN
Ing each season. Mrs. Anne Royal, in her travels
fifty years ago. describes her first OYSTER which
she met at "Billy GOOdin's" hotel, eleven miles
west Of Alexandria, whittier the bivaves had been
"wagoDed" in the shell, and she notes this as the
furthest distance west OF the river that the oyster
eacn morning, and eaten fresh and pure, not only
in the interior OF the state but in Kentucky and
Tennessee, some OF our oyster dealers having cor.
respondents in those states.

The District COmmissiOnership I'm.
pleaSantneAS.

No definite news has yet been received from
District Commissioner West as to his plans or the
time OF his return home. Senator German, who
met Mr.. West In Philadelphia a few days ago, in
formed Commissioner Morgan that Mr.. West ex-
pected to be home Tuesday or Wednesday next.
Information received here by others is to the
effect. Commissioner Morgan stated to a STAR re-
porter to-day that he had had no communication,
personal or official, with Mr.. West since that gen.
tleman's departure. and knew nothing OF story
that differences OF opinions between the Commits
sionerS as to administration OF affairs here have
been adjusted.
II Mr.. West returns 1t is argued he must either
nave Obtained the support OF the President to the
policy which he has proposed to introduce into
District affairs or he must have concluded to sub
init to the old order of things Officials at the Co
lumbia buildings conclude, from the fact that
nothing has been heard from Mr.. West or the PreSi-
dent, that he has failed to secure aid and en-
couragement from the President If he really sought
an interview with the President for that purpose.
Friends OF Mr. West, 1t is stated. have endeav-
0red TO arr ange the matter with Mr.. Morgan so
that Mr.. West can return to his place without any
sacrifice Of dignity. This statement is made, or
course, on the assumption that Mr.. West has not
succeeded in gaining the Presidents sanction OF
his plans. One friend OF Mr.. West says that the
cause OF difference among the Commissioners was
Mr.. Vests unwillingneSS to sacrifice all Official
independence and assume merely the functions of
a clerk; that when he became president OF the
board he expected to exercise the functions of the
Chief executive officer OF the District and not be
restricted merely to the duty of signing his name.

The opposition to the denomination OF Governor
Cornell Is very formidable, and it is openly de-
clared that the administration desires his defeat;
but fortunately for the Governor the open opposi-
ton OF Jay Gould to him is really in his favor.
This Is especially true in the country Districts
where the feeling against Gould is Intense Even
John Kelly and several other Tammany politicians
here say that Gould and ConklingS opposition will
aid Cornell everywhere. In fact, Cornell's record
for governor has been good that the party is for
against him. Nj. Kelly, who is pretty shrewd
p0llttclan, said this morning that he had no doubt
or CornelfS denomination.
There Is very little talk about Secretary Folger's
candidacy. While his ability and integrity are
conceded the situation seems to be such, at least
Just Just now, that he wiz not SO before the conven-
