NO(I.Ogan's Turn.

BLOOMINGTON, May 2S-The most
experienced and best informed politi.
clans of Illinois, and who we're the
foremost in the ranks in advancing the
claims of Logan for the Presidency, are
beginning to think that thefogan boom
TO great extent hasdied away and the
belief that the distinguished Illinois
Senator will hold the balance of power
IN the Chicago Convention has, during
the past week, assumed an entirely diff.
terent shape.
1t was Illinois which created the
hyOm fer Logan. 1t was healthy and
had lively enthusiasm for many
weeks, but it now takes no partiCu lar
poIitca foresight to tell that Logan has
nren losing strength in his own State,
and there is every indication that some.
ming of a political collapse has settled
over Illinois To the disparasement OF
the worthy Senator.
II is safe to ray that the Illinois
delegates will not 90 through the same
interesting performance witnessed in
Chicago four years ago, when Grants
friends kept up BOG notch until the
dark hOrs" was trUtted i'll, hut as soon
as it becomes apparent that Logan has
no perc-ptible strength in the Conven-
ton the lines will I've broken and dele.
gates will 90 to their second choice.
Three out Of five of them are for Blaine.

The Markets.

The curb stone market has put on
quitea summer aspect and lengthens
up towards Ninth street. Garden
vegetables are becoming very abundant
and the fine spring pastures have sent
butter into the market az low as q
cents a pound. Lettuce and radishes
are plentiful and reasonable. Cabbage
heads are very high, ranging in price
from to Is cents. New potatoes from
Norfolk are in the market at 20 cents
per half peck.
'Fhe strawberry trade has increased
fifty per cent. since last market day and
though there isnot glut the market Ii
full of them, and they sell for prices
ranging from 10 to l8 cents according
to quality. A large trade Is done by the
farmers, not by rooted flowers, but in
bouquets, AID the regular florists seem
to have met with ready sales. Meats OF
all kinds remain at about the old
figures. Spring chickens are in demand
and sold at 81 a apair, 40 cents pound
for brOilerH.

In an interview with several persons

there were heavy frosts in some locali-
ties, it is thought that it disappeared
before the sun spread its rays on the
trees, and in that event the fruit could
not be damaged to any great extent.
About Clayton there was a heavy frost,
but at points further down the wind

however, appear to be very much con-

Young Writers.

Says an able critic The great
mistake made by most young writers,
aud which serves as IL drawback To
lAeir success, is that they are inclined
to depend too much on their self.COn-
ijctions and ideas, which they evolve
from their innocent corsciences with.
ont practical knowledge of nature and
the true philosophy of life. From my
K 0w1edge Of authors-neally all OF
whom are poor-I am satisfied that a
writer, to do justice to himself, can
on ly succeed to his own satisfaction by
being possessed 0 at least a moderate
competence, sufficient to relieve him of
the care consequent upon his having to
write for a living. Most authors write
that they may live, and, at times, with
a love they cherish in behalf of pet
ideas and sentiments, and to satisfy
their own ambition. With competence
an author can give his whole soul to the
work. He can give all the time and
pure thought essential to the proper
application Of genius and a brilliant
mind, TO successful literary career.-
Young men with literary ambition
should first possess acompetence before
they start out in the profession. My
advice to such is that they 60 into the
grocery business, or any honest calling.
When they have secured compete nee,
then they can satisfy their literary bent
and achieve that rich success which al.
ways rewards genius and a great mind
properly applied.

GENERAL RosECRANs has intro> duced bi'l in Congress which per- mits newspaper men to copyright artic es, giving them the same pro- tec,ion that the author of book may now have. The idea is a good one. The Bohemian of the press is as worthy of hls hire as any her man on the top of the soil, and any thing that will protect him Tn his rights ought to receive the cordial endorsement of the press get erally. To be sure it will shut of the pock- eting of articles that is now going On, and will therefore have the effect to drive b1ore originality into the country newspaper, a consummation desirable. To the newspaper man the blll is a simple act of justice. If his articles are worth copyrightiD g they are woIth the pittance that he may gain from their use by the prrss at large. It is not probable, however, that newspaper men at large will avail themselves of its provisions to any great extent.

THE Mexican Central railway will have completed its line through to the City of Mexico within the next sixty days The value of this road to the country can scarcely be esti> mated; indeed, we should say to the countries, for Mexico will prob- ably be vastly more benefited by it than the United States. But before it can be of much benefit to either nation, the miserable interferences with traffic at present being enforced must be removed. That the treaty which has been in consideration in Congress for so long a time should
 have failed to be passed upon, is a most lamentable circumstance, for by it's provisions there was a chance that the bulk of Mexican trade would be directed to the United

LEON CHoTTEAU is agaln in Washington endeavoring to work up the admission of French wines into tEe United States free of duty, or nearly so, matter winch, two years ago, he came very near accomplish ing and would have accomplished had net California wine producers made the most strenuous efforts 10 prevent. He is again at work, not only with his great ability, but with an immense financial backing, which even Europeans have learned is an important matter in American law mixing bodies. We predict that the first serious stroke to the produc- tion of pure and unadullerated wines on the Pacific Coast will be the ad- mission of French logWood wines thr ough the monoy of ChoIteau.
