Mr. Eli Carter, of this city has shown Us
a sweet potato that grew on his premises in
town that weighs three and half pounds.
II might be well to remark here that quite
number Of parties about this town have
grown more or less quantities Of sweet po-
tatoes this year and all report that they do
well. They are now TO be found on the Al
bany markets in limited quantities and are
found to compare fayorably with those
shipped from California.

The dsfo,iaa says "There was nothing
doubtful about the impression made upon
a crowded audience at the Congregational
Church last night, by Mr. Charles Dudley.
The lecturer had not been speaking long
before those present seemed to get an Idea
that "Contentment on Clutches was going
TO be a most entertaining and profitable dis
course. II Is seldom that we have humor
and pathos so lavishly and yet 80 effective
" presented on the lecture platform. IL Is
long time since such genuine and sponta-
neous laughter has been heard at any sim
iliar entertainment. "Contcntment on
Clutches" Is perfect series Of surprises of
various degrees Of humor and pathos, and
while not especially educated, you are anus
ed and benefited by as hearty an evenings
enjoyment as any body can cali for Dig
nifty finds the ground suddenly swept from
under It's feet and melancholy Is started out
of It's self-possession ere the lecturer Is fair
ly started. The story of the sympathetic
visitor, which he tells with a face outrivai-
bursts Of merriment, delight and applause.
The tacile expression Of the muttering
wrath which gradually gives place to smiI-
ing satisfaction and finally TO hilarious JOY,
In relating the story Of the Editors dilemma
would demoralize an undertaken. The lcct-
ure, however, Is not void Of instruction.
Most OF the humor has basis of human
nature, and Il illustrates the foibleS and
weaknesses of ordinary life. Those who
listened to Mr.. Dudley last evening are
naturally on the qulvive to satisfy them
selves whether the gentleman who has won
their appreciation as a lecturer, Is. as a
dramatic reader, equal TO the greatest tragic
roles In the Shakespearean repertory, and
seats are being engaged In advance"
This gentleman will appear at the Opera
House on the evening of Oct. 18th. See
notice elsewhere.

WAsHIseToS. July 6.-The ways and
means committee today ordered an
adverse reportto be made on the Ran
dali tariff bill.
Kelly moved TO strike out al bat the
administrative features of the bill. (The
Hewitt proyisions), but this. motion
was lost, although Mr.. Hewitt voted
with the Republicans.
A motion was then made to report
the entire bill adversely, and upon the
roll being called all of the Democrats
voted IN the affirmative, carrying the
motion. The Republican members
abstained from voting, on the ground
that the bill contained meritorious pro-
visions, which could not be disasso-
ciated under the motion. Morrison
will prepare the adverse report on the
bill while the Republicans will not make
q report. The committee also author
lied Breckenridge, of Kentucky, to re-
port adversely Findlay's resolution, de-
Glazing it 10 he the sense of the Honse
that the revenue tax on tobacco should
be removed.
