ConkIinu for President.

Hon. Roscoe Conkling, in acknowl-
edging the action of republican
club formed in Buffalo for the pur-
pose of booming him for the presi-
dency, writes: Deeply attached to
the State, which, for generations, has
been the home of my kindred, proud
of its greatness and bound to its PEG
pie by lifelong ties, any manifesto
ton of regard by it's citizens touches
me keenly and adds to the gratitude
| shall ever feel for having been
deemed worthy to share in uphold
ing the honor and the interests of
New York. Recollections of many
kindnesses received from the people
of Buffalo make it especially agreea-
BILE to know that they still keep a
place for me on the roll of remem-
bered names. Not being, however, a
seeker of political honors, and not be-
lieving it could. be useful to bring me
into the arena, my wish is to deem
the expressed preference OF the club
only mark of personal goodwill.
So understood, it has more value to
me than anything else could give it. "

the advancement of the local inter
ests of its home.people and therefore,

Scrub "Stock in Illinois.

A dispatch dated at Springfield
ILL.,. notes that "there is very gen
eral demand on the part of the farm
ers Of Illinois that the scrub stock
must be relegated to the far West,
where the use of government land
may perhaps make it possible to
grow such stock without serious loss.
The value of land the price of grain
and forage in this State, to say moth
ing of Western competition, leaves
no other alternative to the Illinois
farmer but to raise improved stock
or go out of the business

THE TERRIBLE BLIZZARD.

The account given in our news
columns, of the terrible storm that
swept through the country from Sun
day until Wednesday, gives but slight
portrayal Of the loss of life and de
struction of property, caused there
by. Late adyices add to tine horrors
and the accounts ofsufering seem al
most incredible. The railroads, the
telegraph and all methods OF CON-
munication were suspended and in the
great metropolis Of New York city
the streets were impossible. Trains
loaded with passengers stuck fast in
the drifts and had to depend upon
nearest local stations for sustenance.
The skilled men Of the weather bu-
reau were completely deceived and
the bulletins were announcing warm
er weather at the time that the Storm
King let loose his icy breath.
