A vorE OF farmers taken through the
agency of certain agricultural papers indi-
Gates that the first choice of the farmers
for President is, Democratic, CLEVELAND,
Republican, BLAINE. In the one case
HUI is q bad second with HATCH good
third. In the other HARRISON is good
second with RusK not bad third. This
leads us to suggest that the rival tickets
will probably be CLEVELAND and HATCH
ON the one side and BLAINE and RusK on
the other, An Eastern man at the head
of each with Western man and farmer
bringing up the rear column. The nomina-
tion Of these gentlemen would insure a
very pretty race. Business would be lively
an the pool lawn and there would be lots
Of fun for the occupants of the:grand
stand.

NoyEs can make allowances for frisky

the bounding BEmAH can accord the

the time for jaw. 'Tis the time for
sparerbs and the fatted capon, for
steaming drinks and mellow mid
night gatherings, for fun and char
ity and yum-yum. Let the Star
and the Posf think of it. Let NoyEs and
WILKINS remember the day we are about
10 celebrate, And let them, even II they
cannot consent TO its utter determination,
agree TO postpone the battle and 10 check,
for this one week at least, the flow of

An English paper says: II the trade In
India and Ceylon tea goes on increasing,
as it has done of late, tho tea trade Of
China will soon be defunct. As it Is, the
importing Of China tea is regarded as
profitlcss by firms who once had good
reason TO think otherwise, but who now
find tho game not worth the candle. Ac-
cor,ling to the board of trade returns for
December, 1899, just issued, the ship
ments Of tea from India arc now far In
excess Of those from China, having
amounted for the year to III, 100, 600
pounds. against ia, ,O05, 900 pounds; while
those from China were only SS,S4S,OOO
pounds, against 105, ,424, 900 pounds in
1883. As the shipments from Ceylon are
now very large the customs commission
ers have issued general order, dated
Dec. 30, 1899, directing that for the fut-
ure the imports thence are to be shown
separately, and that the came distinction
shall be observed with regard TO tea
taken out OF bond for consumption The
distinctions will therefore be "British
East India, "Ceylon," ''China" Cinclud-
ing Hong Kong and Macos) and ''other
countries" and the statements OF the ex-
ports Of tea will also be based on the
same plan as regards the country Of pre-
duction or origin.-MOntreal Star.
