From tho New York Commercial Advertiser. 
Wk are not among those who indulgo in strong prefer¬ 
ences or prepossessions for ona calling or profession 
over another, or who lend their support to candidates 
for otlice on account of their Connection with aoy partic¬ 
ular department of business, or their devotion to any 
special pursuit in life. Such preferences and such action, 
natural perbapa in themselves, as society Is constituted, 
do not form the basis of a correct standard in the dis¬ 
charge of our public duties or in tho selection of names 
to represent our principles iu tho ofllcial velatious im¬ 
posed by our system of government. Were we to look 
for candidates for the various positions under the State 
and National Governments most congenial to our own 
Immediate business and social relations, Attention would 
naturally be directed to the commercial classes, with 
whom we are more closely identiiled than with any 
other lint wo are always to remember that commerce 
would be nothing without agriculture—that Ihe cultiva¬ 
tion of the soil is the basis of all our prosperity, aud 
that, whatever lends to improve that cultivation, and to 
elevate tho condition of the cultivator, has a moat irn- 
portaut hearing upon all the trades and professions—that 
it gives activity to our commercial and vital energy to 
all our business allairs, 
Politicians Overlook (lie Great Agricultural 
I ill creel. 
In tho selection of candidates for the higher stations 
in the General and .State Governments, the agricultural 
interests arc too often overlooked. Professional men 
and merchants, especially the former, from the circum¬ 
stances of the case, are brought more prominently before 
tho public mind, and enjoy advantages not possessed by 
the morn retired and unassuming cultivators of the soil. 
But we would not select or recommend a candidate sim¬ 
ply because ho belongs to this or that profession, but 
rather on account of his fitness for the position, and his 
ability to promote the greatest good of the greatest 
number of the citizens of the State, We have had 
farmer Governors, lawyer Governors and merchant Gov¬ 
ernors—some lit and others unfit for the duties of the 
chief magistracy; and the same thing, wo suppose, will 
happen In the future. But when a. name is presented, 
commanding universal respect and confidence, one fitted 
by experience ami acquaintance with the public Interests 
to discharge tho duties of the executive o file a in all Its 
departments, we deem it. entirely proper to show that 
his connection with that branch of industry upon which 
the people of this State so largely depend, is of a charac¬ 
ter to commend him to their earnest support. 
.Hi’, Kelly Almiitioins Mercantile lor Agricul¬ 
tural I'at'MiltH, 
lion. William Kelly, who is now so prominently before 
the people of the State as a candidate for the office of 
Governor, not only has a good name, wherever commer¬ 
cial integrity and honor are appreciated, but his popu¬ 
larity throughout the agricultural districts is unbounded. 
To the Unsullied Uobur attaching to the position of a 
retired merchant, whose integrity wag ocver questioned, 
ha adds the practical and useful qualifications of ail edu¬ 
cated, Intelligent farmer. His connection with the agri¬ 
cultural mterents is not of the holiday order, designed 
for occasional recreation and amusement, but, having, nn 
bis retirement, m early manhood, from mercantile life, 
chose agriculture as till) occupation to winch bis future 
years were to bo devoted, he entered UpOO Hs duties 
with au earnest and settled purpose to contribute to its 
advancement,, and to exert his abilities and influence in 
he hall of Its development, both practically and gcleuiifl- 
c.ally, for the benefit of the poople at large 
To Miis end his estate of seven hundred acres has been 
gradually and steadily ireproved, — not in ihe mode 
adopted by some lanr.y farmers of the present day, by 
extravagant outlays ot money, but upon national princi¬ 
ples, ana in a manner wormy of practical imitation 
until it i« now one of the bust cultivated farms in the 
Slate. 
Mr. Kelly'* Keliitioiix with tin* State Society 
ami the N. Y. S. Agricultural College. 
Not content with tho example which his own fanu 
■Horded of successful culture, Mr. Kelly has been an 
oar neat friend of the institutions designed to foster and 
promote agricultural Improvements. The New York 
Slate Agricultural society owes much to hie intelligent 
and well bestowed labors. By personal attendance upon 
its meetings aud active labor upon its committees and 
iu its Executive Honed, 111 various positions, and finally 
ns one of its most efficient and accomplished 1'renldeutS, 
he lias done inucli to advance its interests, and to place 
it in a position more influential than any similar institu¬ 
tion in the country, and which enables it to promote, to 
a marked and gratifying degree, the most useful im¬ 
provements lu Hie great l'uuUaiueutul basis of our pros¬ 
perity. 
Pursuing bis purpose of contributing to the advance¬ 
ment of the Interests and education of the masses of the 
people, we find Mr. Kelly actively enlisted in the estab¬ 
lishment of an institution designed to bestow upon agri¬ 
cultural pursuits additional laeilulus,through the medium 
ul' It combined course of practical aud scientific instruc¬ 
tion The New York Stale Agricultural College, located 
at Ovid, SeneOtt county, lias received bis aid and assist¬ 
ance, both material and personal. A« a member of its 
Hoard of Trustees, and au i Hi dent worker on its most 
important Committees of Management, bis services have 
always been acknowledged by fiis Co-laborer,<.composed of 
the leading agriculturists of the State. This Institution, 
now nearly ready to teceive pupils, anil to enter, as wo 
hope, upon a long career of ii-efuluf-s, owes its position 
to the perseveiiug efforts of a small number of gentle¬ 
men. all of whom will concur with us iu pronouncing 
Mr. Kelly one of tho most efficient aud reliable of their 
number. 
Air. Kelly ami the ('mini? of Education—The 
It or harder Lni vcrnily. 
While the eHurts if Mr, Kelly have been directed to 
the Improvements In agriculture, both in its practical 
aud Intellectual rlvpnr'monta, as a leading featuie in the 
(treat work of public advancement, other branches of 
education have commanded his sympathy and attention. 
The District .school, ut hix town and neighborhood, in 
the latter of which he Is almost always a Trustee aud 
principal manager, and the Other education# I Institutions 
of the State, have shared his counsel atid aid. Hit has 
bean a large contributor to the Rochester University and 
other organization* fur the education of young men, and 
— we tnsy here odd, although perhaps a digression—a 
liberal donor to many Of ihe benevolent and religious 
charities appealing to thu public for aid. 
It is because the efforts of Hr. Kelly have been directed 
to the advancement id those objects in which the greatest 
number of our people are interested, because, in short, 
he sought In an iinost»ntOtlona manner to elevate the 
standard of agriculture, commercial integrity, and edu¬ 
cation—lo rains the profession of the fanner to a dignity 
and social position which shall make it attractive to 
educated aud refined person-, and because of his unselfish 
and constant labors in be half of tfie people, that l|i« 
nomination for Chief Mngisttacy meets with such a warm 
response from every section of the State. It proves that 
a pure and unsullied character, a benevolent and liberal 
heart, and a willingness to labor in the cause of the 
people, do not go unnoticed or unappreciated, even in 
those days of political negeuerscy. 
.Mr. Kidly** (itmeral L’oliiirn ) YIttVH ujitl 
((nullllcniionx. 
Let ub not be understood, in the remarks we have made 
touching Mr Kelly's connection with the affairs of eur 
own State, that ho neglect- the broader concerns of the 
country at large. As a National Union man, devoted to 
the great, cause of equality and security in all our rights 
as individuals and as States, no man in sounder or more 
reliable. And in tho effort tr> advance the industrial 
interests of the people, tits efforts have not been con¬ 
fined to his own State. To raise the standard of agricul¬ 
ture ami education among farmers of the country at 
lurge, has been hfs aim, aud to procure a recognition 
ol this great interest by the government and t<* have 
a department assigned to it, has been with him a favorite 
theme. 
We advocate Mr. Kelly’s election, not because he is a 
funner, hut because being a farmer he possesses A enra- 
prehen.ive mind, capable of grappling with public ques¬ 
tions, and of directing the allairs ot State in an intelli¬ 
gent aud sy-tematlc manner. iu his hands, the adminis¬ 
tration would be above suspicion, and above reproach; 
Its financial honor untarnished, and the interest# of tho 
people carefully consulted. The electors, whether edu¬ 
cated professional men, merchants, or farmers, if they 
would honor themselves, restore the affairs of the State 
to pure and honest system, dignify labor and encourage 
universal education, should vote for Wm. Kelly for Gov¬ 
ernor at the ensuing election.

Bt’U remains with us, and under its influence business it 
very much depressed- Wholesale merchants are doing tit¬ 
tle or not ting-, millers are waiting Old World advices be¬ 
fore operating, and the retail Hade is exceedingly light be¬ 
cause few farmers cau get into market. The reads must be 
in very bad couci’ton, and oily residents are beginning to 
feel the effects of a scarcity in certain articles of produce.
