Boston, Nov. 1.-The Commonwealth

considers the Undiscovered Holmes

This, if substantiated, will be of the

comet was originally discovered in 177s
by Montague at Limoges; its periodicity
was established by Biela, at Josephstadt

On It's next return, in 1862, the two COM

propose to assert themselves under the
coming administration. They cay much
gratitude is due Illinois democrats. Ben
jsmin T. Cable, manager of the democratic
campaign, first of all, seems to be slated
for something good. His management of
the western campaign was particularly
gratifying to democrats, and it is admitted
that he will get most anything in rea-
son he wants. He Is reported to
desire foreign mission, and Paris,
st. Petersburg and Berlin are mentioned
as places in which he may reside four
years. Paris is understood to be Mr.;
Cables chief aim. In the French capital
his wealth would enable him TO shine.
Senator John II. Palmer also can reason
ably expect to have extensive influence
with the administration. Cabinet makers
have slated him with the war portfolio.
In that event Governor Altgsldt would
have a senator to appoint.

CONDITION OF TRADE.

The Unprecedented Industrial Ac-

Election.
NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-R. G. Dun & Co. q
Weekly Review of Trade says: The presi-
Dental election has interrupted business to
some extent in all parts of the country
during the past week, but by no means as
much as usual, and at nearly all points the
volume of trade has been fairly main
tanned, and the unprecedented activity OF
industries has only been interrupted by
the election holiday. A severe storm
throughout most of the northern states
has embarrassed the movements Of
products and has checked some trades, bui

goods who had found the unusually mild
weather somewhat depressing to their bust
ness. Distribution of other products hai
been fully up to the average, and the re
ports regarding collections are from al
