ConTcntlon at Saratoga.
Sabatqga, September 27. The day
opened cool and foggy but with a
promise of sun and warmth later.
The summer visitors have all fled and
the. Democracy literally have posses
sion of the town.' . There is scarcely
a lady to be seen on theft,street.
The hotels on the east side of Main
street are all closed and the street,
therefore, divides a comparatively de
ported tillage on one side from a joy
ous, rollicking, active community on
the other. The hotel accommoda
tions have been somewhat limited and
there is every evidence in the faces of
hundreds of persons that they have
been strangers to "beds for one night
at least, and there is not wanting a
ltfok of pale exhaustion and anxiety
born of weary hours of midnight dis
cussions ' on contested seats
and earnest efforts to ' settle
family quarrels without appeal to the
convention. At 10 30 delegations
from Troy, Albany and other near-at-
hand places came marching through
of the public administration have been
vigorously adjusted to the standards
furnished by democratic doctrine.
We look upon a general revival of
trade and an increase of factories in
all parts of the country, upon
a restored commercial confidence
between the sections recently dis
trustful, and upon the enthusiastic
greetings of northern thrift and en
terprise among southern communi
ties and ihe widespread good feeling
with which the soldier and citizen
grasp hands abovci the embers of the
strifes bf a quarter of a century as
the signal justification of a return to
power of the great party whose ap
peal is for the union of hearts and
the union of hands in the upbuilding
of our common country." -
Temporary officers were then ap
pointed.The rules of the assembly were
then adopted as far as practicable as
the "rules of the convention. The
chair ruled that all contests must be
referred to the committee on creden
tials. The calling of the roll was then
begun. The names of men prominent
in the party were loudly cheered as
they were reached. The roll-call devel
oped many contested seats.
The committees on resolutions, cre
dentials and permanent organization
were then announced. At this point
a dispatch from the Associated Press
was read announcing the fact that
the Volunteer was ahead of the
Thistle in the yacht race and gaining
every moment. It was greeted with
great applause, the convention rising
and giving three hearty cheers.
The convention then . took a recess
until 8 o'clock this evening.
Saratoga was nearly deserted again
this alternoon. The members of the
convention who were not on commit
tees are taking advantage of the long
recess to visit Saratoga Lake, Mount
McGregor and other interesting
places on the suburbs. The commit
tees, however, were hard at work and
delegation after delegation appeared
before them to argue pro and con.
Liquo dealers, prohibitionists and
license! men high and low made
their arguments before the committee
on resolutions, but it is stated that
this committee has been ready to re
port for hours and that there has been
no serious trouble in that quarter.
At a quarter past eight not a dozen
delegates were seated. The band
had disappeared and a few ladies had
lent their presence to the convention.
At 8:20 p. m. Chairman Raines rap
ped the convention to order. ; There
were not fifty delegates in their
places. Sheriff Grant, of New York,
rose and moved that as the committee

Washington, D. C, Sept. 27. It
is learned on good authority that the
vacancy on the Supreme Court bench,
caused by the death of Justice

after the President's return from his
western and southern trip.
There was a decided falling off to
day in the sale of bonds to the gov
ernment under the terms of the treas
ury circular of the:-22d inst., which
fact the officials attribute somewhat
to the great interest taken, by the
business community in the interna
tional yacht race at New lork. There
is very little doubt, however, of the
'overnment s ability to secure the
;14,000,OOQ of bonds required for the
sinking fund within the time pre
scribed by the circular October 8th.
Over $ 8,000,000 of the amount has
already been secured within five days,
and there i less than $6,000,000 to
be purchased within the remaining
ten days. The total offerings today
were $717,815, of which amount
$586,500 were 4 per cents and $131,
350 i per cents. j
Applications for the prq-payment
of interest were received today on
bonds amounting to 12,500, making
the total td date 95,953,650.

is lifting a little and the Long Island
shore is now coming into view.
Fort Wadsworth, Sept. 27. 11.17.
The racers are dimly seen near the
starting line landing off and on in a
light south wind. The mist is clear

waiting patiently with all sails set for
the start, which likely will be delayed
some little time yet. j

on his stable and cattle lot. As I
have previously - stated, swamp muck
is one of the most valuable manures
that a farmer can put on his land; and
One of the most advantageous ways
of using it is to spread it first over
the stable and cattle lot This sub
stance absorbs ' a great amount of
moisture, and is capable of holding
fight or nine times its own weight of
Water. This fact gives it its value in
ihe stock pens. On account of its
irreat weight when wet,; it should
always be dug7 and allowed to dry be
fore being hauled in for compost use.
A most valuable compost pan be made
with this stuff by piling with it alter
nate layers of stable manure, leaves,
cotton seed, scrapings of the smoke
house and all other refuse about the
farm. There is usually too little at
tention paid to the compost heap on
most oi our soutnern larms; uut in
stead farmers are apt to be carried
away by the seductive commercial fer
tilizers, bought on time. These fer
tilizers are useful when they can be
had at reasonable rates, and are used
to help out the main supply of ma
nure, made oh the farm. But
there is not usually any profit
in them, when they are bought
at high prices, on time, and con
stitute the main dependence of the
farmer for manuring his lands. The
best effects of kainit, acid phosphate,
and even ammoniated fertilizers are
baa whentthey are used in conjunc
tion with 'stable manure, muck and
cotton seed to form the compost
heap. As to the inquiry how to use
a quantity of sawdust from an ojd
mill to advantage, I would say that I
know of no use for it, unless one be
found in spreading it over tenacious,
clayey land, and plowing it in, in or
der to loosen the soil. I have known
of this being done to advantage. But
if the substance has to be hauled any
