\ Sad Cnnirnsf.

The Boston Advertisers London cor respondent says; Nothing could more vivdly mark the sad cOntrC sts of Lon don life than the remarkable results which have recently been realized at the sale of the Hamilton palace collection. The dispersion of such a treasure of art Is certainly an event of no ordinary iu- portance, and it was to be expected that the stir among collectors and cOnn0ls- seurs would be very considerable. But as day has succeeded day while the great collection has slowly exchanged owners, amazement has had time t' grow apace. Never were such prices re- realized, never was seen such keen com petition for the possession Of articles whose value IS altogether CEtTIuslc and artificial As one reads Of thousands oi gulneas being paid for cabinet Wcr- marguerite, for minute and fragile spec Imeus of glass and falencc, one wonders from what inexhaustible supply the money coues-mOuey that is Eey.r forthcoming when works Of heuevoleucs or enlightened charity make their vain appeals. No one of cultured tastes can be indifferent to the beauty and charm of many of these rare and precious Oh- jects, or unmoved by tue longing to pos sess, if possession be a possibility. One is especially glad to sec the agents oi the National Gallery and the South kensington Museum provided with tEe means of securing a few choice pictures and other works of art But four th0U- sand gmncas for @ secretaire which be- Ionged tO 'DU Barry, Five thousand glIineas for a writing table of She UUc de C'hoiseull Surely, such prices iudi- cate a distorted and unnatural phase uf public taste very far removed from a true appreciation of the va.ue and power of art.

VERY CHEERING NEws.-One of
the most welcome presentations Of
news it has been the privilege of any
journal to make to the public for a
long while past was the six-column
condensation of crop reports from all
the various sections of the country as
published in the New York World Of
the 9Th inst. These reports came in
each instance from parties in a situa-
ton to "know whereof they speak.
They show the outlook to be magnifi-
cent-that all the cereals are doing
well, and that increased crops are con
fidently expected AS to the cotton
crop there is a prospect Of much
larger yield than last year, despite the
foods and late frosts, There is an in
creased acreage. The winter wheat
has been unframed by the frost, and
though reduced average is reported,
larger crop is anticipated. Of the
spring wheat full average has been
sown, if the new lands brought under
cultivation in Dakota are included;
and though little late, there is no
reason to doubt that the yield will be
large. The planting of Indian corn
has been delayed in the North, but
late crops are expected to be large,
and there are very favorable reports
from the southwest. Of oats an in
creased yield is expected in the South,
and late but large crops in the North.
The cultivation of the tobacco crop in
Virginia has been lessened by the ne
gro's preference for railroad work.
The acreage is extended in the Ohio
Valley. The wool clip will be late,
and there has been unusual mortality
among the lambs, owing to the cold.
Of pork there is decreased present
supply, owing to the present high
prices of corn, but ample supplies and
more moderate prices are looked for.
The best news of all is, however, that
while corn and distillery fed cattle are
yet scarce, grazing cattle are plenty,
particularly in the far west, and there
is a decided prospect of cheaper beef
within few weeks.

The Baltimore american (Republi-

General William Malone announ-
ces officially over his own signature, in
a labored epistle dated from the U. S.
Senate, that he will by no word Of his
check the pacifying and liberalizing
influences upon the whole country
which Virginia has set in motion. :
The pacifying does not seem to have
paciied to any large extent, and the
liberality in Virginia seems to have
been exerted very strenuously towards
the evasion or reputation Of just
debts. And right on this issue does
Gen. William Mahones strength de-
pend. He climbed into power through
the enforcement of the reputation
doctrine, and the whole country can
not be pacifed by such thieyish
creed"

1t is whispered about in Democratic

The Democrats are satisfied that they
must put forward their strongest man
to win the fight, and among the names
most prominently mentioned is that of
General Winfield Scott Hancock. 1t
is intimated that General Hancock
will accept the nomination if rendered
him, on the ground that if successful
he will be formidable candidate for
the Presidential nomination of the
Democratic party in 1884.
