THE MARKET to-day was better supplied
than for several Saturdays, and there were
more country people, with their produce
present. Greens" are becoming more plen'
tiful and the early spring vegetables are
beginning to make their appearance 1nere
is little change to note in prices, put there
is downward tendency. The effort MADE
to "bull'' butter up to 40 cents was prompt
" met by the bears and signaily failed;
The butchers had their usual supply and
variety of meats at unchanged prices. Poul-
try was rather more plentiful but high:
The fish benches were fairly supplied and
soon cheap fish will have the effect of some
what lowering the prices of other articles OF
food in the market.

FOR RANDALL.

Kendall Will sweep the Nation.

Governor Abbott, of New Sersey, Believes
Kendall viii sweep the Nation.
Governor Abbott, of New jersey, sec
onded the nomination of Randall. He said
there was conviction in the land that il
wisdom controls the cOunsels of the Demo
cratic party in making platform broad
enough for every Democrat to stand upon,
and in placing upon it candidate of trans.
cendant ability and pure life, success lies in
the result of their deliberations. he be-
heved that Samuel J. Randall "a the candi-
date would reach the controlling vote in
the pivotal States more certainly than any
other of the distinguished men. He
asked where does success lie2 Not in Min
nesota. Not in Iowa, or other confirmed
Republican states, but in those close states
which we're carried by Tihen in 1876. He
review ed the arguments used for Cleveland
and said these applied to Thurman, Bayard
and others. Then what excuse was there
for putting aside these grand Democratic
vetrans for new man? The record OF
Randall Is pure and stainless, while his
public for twenty years has been in be-
half of an economical and an hopest govern
ment. These are practical efforts for reform.
Randall would sweep New Jersey like
great political cyclone. He is the friend Of
labor everywhere, and thdConvention could
do no better than nominate him..

e6eugh. 1t is strong and truthful ar
1&ignmeRt of the Republican party, and at
tAe same time presents a sound declaration
ofDemocratie principles. 1t meets every
isane of the day in a frank manner places

sreSSive organization, with platform broad
md liberal enough for all patriotic citizens
10 stand upon.
There is no free trade in its tariff plank
N6ther is there protection for subsidies.

WA amply protect American industries and
