Among the names mentioned are those of Prince Hohenlohe, of Herren Ueningson, Falk, Lowlier, Iticliter, and "rt illiaru, son of Bismarck himself.

Indeed, the Junior Bismarck has already taken steps hich show that be wishes to in herit the political status of his fattier. He has made a speech in Berlin before a thousand or more voters. He was greeted with applause. The Important part of his discourse was the beginning, wl ere he declared that the situation of KtirOfH' was eminently pacific. He defended the political econoiuv of his father.

Speaking of the tobacco monopoly, he mentioned tlie Rrrltnrr Tnyhlatt newspaper, which was booted by his hearers.

It does eeni slrange to us that the farmers will persist in sow ing small gram, resulting inevitably in loss to them, as their late exiierienee again proves.

We. of course, know very little a I tout especially Kansas farming; Imt we do know, afid will venture the statement, that attempting to raise small grain tu this pint of Kansas is a grand mistake, and the longer the farmers engage iu it the worst it will lie for them.
