was unexpected to both parties. Good citizens,

was well expressed by a remark uttered since

date for State Senator, Mike Norton, viz: That 
a broom handle would liuvo run in liis district 
if it lmd been labeled anti-Tammany.

cd and perhaps punished. Related returns give

Butler.—'Wo can report no improvement in the 
butter trade while the market is subject to the un¬ 
certain condition occasioned by excessive receipts 
und only H special demand working upon It. Low 
grades of State seem to be turning into the path that 
Western had to take, and are likely to throw » wide 
range bet ween choice and fail qualities Western 
butter is nut arriving in quantities and. tho present 
large deliveries of Slate leave little room for what is 
me Fine table butter is selling freely ut full 
late price*, but any grade that does not suit the pres¬ 
ent sensitive taste of buyers is suujeel to abrupt re¬ 
ductions m the offers; iofuct, it is remarked through 
the trade compared with old rimes that instead of a 
light concession, say J* to Iff. Xu soil an off dairy that 
used to be resorted to successfully, butter showing 
similar difference In quality must now be marked 
down3 und even 5c. Welsh butter that heretofore 
has found so much favor in the rail sales, th s year Is 
running very unsatisfactorily,and no matter how 
good a half or third of u dairy is the rejections make 
the average price low. Wo revise quotations this

Seeda,—The arrivals or clover have been heavy, 
bui the export inovement ims been sufficient to pre¬ 
vent important accumulation of stock. There has 
been some competition to secure the best lota of 
clover, and 12S<c- bn* been paid. The range Is 3t>j®

working up a little in sympathy. The best lots are 
held ut 43,30. and common down to $3.15. ILuigh flax 
has been sold at 41.90, anil at tins price there is not 
much inquiry. 
Tobacco.— Trade shows very little Improvement 
In Kcmocky leaf. A few orders h ive been closed

been in the market to a more liberal extent. No 
change has been made in prices. Seed-leaf grades
