Tobacco, in many places has taken a Second growth, which will came it to mature much later. J Mr. M wk Hornady left Saturday for Ore me county, ostensibly to lonk after his farming interests, and especially tobacco, which is very fine, but we would not be surprised if there is not a oar load of other at tractions. Our young friends, Messrs.

L. Ormond left to-day for Ormondsville, on a visit to Mr. Ormond's mother, Mrs. Jen nie Ormond. His many friends will regret to learn that Mr. Ormond's health is such, that his physician at Cary, where he is now living, has advised him to relinquish his work for the present We trust he may be speedily restored. Everything has quieted down since the election, and while we re joice over our splendid victory, let us not harshly condemn those who politically opposed us. But let us try to show to them the error of their way, and restore such a one in spirit of meekness. There are very few men who will mend their ways, morally, politically or religiously by being abused for what they have done. So let kindness be our watch word, and we dare say that before another campaign many will be con verted, and brought back into the fold of Democracy. KlLLICKINlCK. "Oak Glenn", Walter, N.

London, August 8.-(Wednes day, 3:45 i. m.)-"lQ case tht troops advance tbe Chinese mus' fight The auggeation that the al lies should be -allowed to enter Pekin in order to escort the Min ister to Tien Tfln is absolu e'y Impossible." Tbis is the diqtum of Li Hung Chang. It was transmitted lasi evening to Mr. fllliam Pritchard Morgan, member of Parliament, by hid agent at' Shanghai. The agent bad carried to E irl Li a message from MrMjrg-tn urging that the allied troops be allowed to enter the capital and stating that a settlement could be made at Tien Tslo, whereby a war of the world againet China would be averted; but even the optimistic U failed to holdout the slightest hope of its feasibility, although be reiterated tolvMr. M)rgan'a agent bis declaration that the Ministers had left Pekin, fixing the date of their; departure as August 2 id. The agent makes thiscommen: If "The oonsu's ere without confirmation." REAL WAR IN CHINA Such reports as we have of the engagement at Pe'isang indicate that the allied foues have a very serious task befo them in their advance upon Pel i. Peitsang is the point at,yT a Japanese seentiiigar ty Bomcr 4ay igtr found the enemy entrenched. It is only eight miles from Tien Tsin and as the most advanced position of the Chinese was prob ably ocoupied ' by a relatively small army Yet, it withstood at tack for many hours, and unless t he allied forces are much more numerous than we have been al lowed to suppose, the proportion of losses reported is exceedingly severe. Our informi tion is too meagre to admit of any intelligent mili tary criticism, but the fact must be reoognized that this advance into Chinese territory iB made against no mob of insurgents, but against the organized forces of the Chinese Fmpire. And how ever, inferior they may be to European soldiers, they are brave and well-armed and their vast numbers give them an enor mous advantage. Driven from one point, the Chinese can form at another with increased numbers, while the al lies grow weaker as they advance into a very difficult country with most inadequate facilities for transportation. All this makes the situation appear, at this dis tance, exceedingly grave, and it is all the more unsatifactory be cause we know so little of the organizations or command of the movement or of the rela' ions of the different armies engaged. We must hope that fuller informa tion will bring more encourage ment. Necretary Hay's Illness Not 8 rlous. Sanapee Lake, N . II., August 6.
