TUESDAY EVENING, HAY 31, 1881.
The Lecal Tobacco Market.
An Active Trade Seme Purchases and Prices
Given Prospect or the New crop.
Although a few tobacco packing firms
have finished their purchases of 1880 leaf,
and have closed np their warehouses, a
large majority of them are still busily en
gaged in both packing and purchasing. A
very large amount of leaf was received last
week, the receipts en Saturday being es
pecially heavy, some of the buyers taking
in from J0,000 te 100,000 pounds. Hay &
Smith are credited with having bought
during the past week in the country lying
between Quarry ville and Oxford sixty tens
of leaf, and a well informed correspondent
writing from that section states that if the
trade remains as active for the two next
weeks as it was last week the crop will be
all lifted. Following arc a few of the sales
reported :
Skiles & Fry have bought from the ad
ministrators of Cyrus Moere, of Drumerc,
2 acres at 8, 4 and 2 ; and from C. M. Hes3
2 acres at 8, 4 and 2 ; Jehn Ilildebrand has
neught Wm Kunkle's 1 aero in julenat 10,
4 and 2 ; and James Ferry, in Celcrain,
at 10, 5 and 3; Fritz k Martin have
bought B. Morrison's 2 acres in Colerain
at 9, 4 and 2 ; Heffman & Sens purchased
in Colerain Alex Fergusons 2 acres at G
round and Wm Fergusen's 1 acre at 6, 4
and 2 ; and from Mr. Zahm near Kit k weed
1 acre at 4 round. Jehn Dellaren has
bought largely around Russclville and the
average has been about as fellows : from
Jacob H. Beeks 2 acres at 6, 3 and 2 ;
Thes Ressi acres at -7 and 2. Jeseph
i!iCKiin, ei Drumore sold en Tuesday ele
ven cases which he just finished packiug
en that day for 10, 7 and 4 te Bushman of
iiosten.
Jacob Kunklc has sold three acres te
E. H. Kauft'mau at 15, 0, 5 ; it was raised
en the Nat Myers farm at Drumerc Cen
tre. Samuel McClenegan has sold his en
tire crop at Chestnut Level te Bushman,
who cased it en the premises ; it made 26
cases and brought 11, 5, 3. Isaac Mont
gomery, of Eden, sold five acres te Sehner
& Krider for 14, 5, 3, aud James Ment
gemery sold three acres te the same. Rob Reb
ert Sampson, of Kirkwood, sold te Wit
mcr, at Christiana, four acres at 12, 5, 3,
and 10, 4, 2. The following crops were
sold te Mr. Radcliffe, agent for Oppcn
hcimcr : In Colerain, II. M. Cellins, six
acres at 1G, 5, 3 ; I. B. Myers, four acres
at 12, 3, 2 ; J. Comly Maule, one acre at
8, 4, 2 ; B. G. Herr, five acres en private
terms, supposed te be 52 through, and Jes.
Ecklin, one acre private. Frem Upper
Oxford, Chester county : Luke Gilbert,
two acres at 8, 3, 2 ;' E. Reyburn, two
acres at 13, 4, 2 ; I. N. Kecne, one acre at
9 round ; Fritz &. Martin have bought
Rebert Patterson's crop of four acres in
Celcrain at private prices.
In the extreme lower end of Lancaster
county and the adjoining townships of
Chester county, many of the farmers be
came discouraged because the buyers were
se slew in coming around, and offered
such low prices when they finally did put
put in an appearance. It is said the acre
age in that section will in consequence be
considerably decreased the coining season.
The fact appears te be that while fine
tobacco can be grown among the Octoraro
hills seme of the farmers pay tee little
attention te the careful handling of it.
Our Marietta correspondent writes that
Messrs. Greve & Cellins, of that borough,
received at their warehouse during the
past two weeks 175,000 peuuds of to
bacco, and have bought, te be yet de
livered about 100,000 pounds, notably one
let of about 50 cases grown en the Stick
ler farm, near Columbia, by Jacob Stener.
The receipts at the warehouses of Messrs.
Boek & Jacobs, and Helfman & Ueuscal,
of Maytown, were large during the past
week, as were also the receipts at ware
houses in ether sections of the ceuuty.
The New riant.
Comparatively little has been done as
yet towards setting out plants for the
coming crop, the dry weather being
against it. Besides, in some sections
there .are complaints of a scarcity of geed
plants, owing te the depredations of an
insect, heretofore unknown. We hear of
ene grower whose entire plant bed has
been eaten up by this new -pest, .while
ethers have suffered seriously from the
same cause. It is believed, however,
there will net en the whole be any scarcity
of plants, as a much larger quantity of
seed was sewn than during any previous
year. AH that is new wanted is wet
weather te forward their growth and en
able the farmers te set them out. The
ground has been well prepared for them,
and if no untoward circumstance prevent,
as large an acreage and probably a larger
one will be planted than ever before.
Oat ei Its Uele.
It is a gratifying sign of the times te
see the Tobacco Jeurnal,el New Yerk, safe
ly emerge from the " hole " in which it
has se long been struggling. Fer week
after week and month after month, it be
wailed the felly of the tobacco buyers, and
cursed alternately the cupidity and stupid
ity of the growers. It assured the buyers
that every mother's son of them who in
vested in '79 Pennsylvania at the prices
they were paying would go te the
demnitien bowwows ; that the crop
was se unprecedentcdly large that
it could never be lifted, net even at
prices one-half less than the idiots, feels
and lunatics were paying for it Iu the
crop of 1880 the Journal could sec nothing
but white vein and "holes ;" in fact it re
garded all Pennsylvania ene great ilea-hole,-
of which Lancaster county was the
deepest part. Our tobacco was se terribly
riddled with flea holes that it would be fit
for nothing but coal screens or mesquite
bars. But all this is new changed. The
Journal having get its head above the sur
face, leeks around and sees that '79 tobac
co is very scarce and very .desirable ; that
the dealers, jebDcrs ana manufacturers
are crying for it, and willing te pay any
price for it, without stepping te inquire
whether it is Pennsylvania, Connecticut
or "Jersey" leaf ; that the wicked agri
cultural depaitmcnt at Washington has
been deceiving the country all the while
by ever-estimating the quantity of tobacco
grown, especially m isi'J ana leau, ana
that maybe after all we are en the threshold
of a tobacco famine ! The Journal is net
yet quite prepared te endorse the views
of its Lancaster correspondent that the
pin holes in the. crop of 18S0 arc closing
up, but maybe, after it gets the "opaque
gum " from its eyes, it may be able te see
even this marvelous manifestation of na
ture first brought te the knowledge of
the weld by its. own brilliant correspon
dent. Great is the Journal, and Hammer
stein is its prophet !

Four small specimens of granite from
the old mill of Washington, at Mount
Vernen, Virginia, were donated by a
friend.
An oblong, spindle-shaped hen's egg was
donated by Mr. ilitncr, ei North CJueen

malformations of tire eggs of domestic
fowls, which arc constantly eccuring ow

The chairman of the committee appoint
ed at a former meeting te examine the
proceedings and compile lists of all the
members and correspondents who have
been elected te the Linmcan society from
its organization te the present time, dates
of their election and their residence at the
time they were elected, se far as known,
made a report iu accordance with said in
structions, which was en motion received
and the chairman authorized, if practic
able, te have them published for the in
formation of the public.
The committee, also appointed at a for
mer meeting te have shelving put up for
the accommodation of our increasing li
brary, and the large accession te our bo
tanical collection, reported the work done
and presented bills, whic'i, en motion,
were ordered te be paid.
The treasurer reported $5 paid te the
Academy of Natural Sciences for its pro
ceedings for the year 1880, which was ap
proved. Mr. Wm. II. Bullar, of Marietta, was
balloted for and was unanimously elected
an active member of the society.
Mr. Brinten, formerly elected, presented
himself and was duly identified as an
active member.
Science Oussip.
The meeting was somewhat larger th in
the usual average, but happening in the
busiest season of the most active members,
there was little of special interest brought
before it, still there was ample opportunity
for scientific gossip, through which it be
came manifest that the Linnrean society
needs at least three things te facilitate its
material dovclepemcnt. It needs mere
much mere space, for the expansion and
proper display of its collections (it is ab
solutely cramped for room).
It needs a larger working force of realli
active members, who arc blessed with
abundant leisure and a will te work
Above all, it needs au endowment fund,
in order te carry into practical effect the
two former needs. Seeing that it is ut
terly impossible for men te take their
wealth out of this world, and the criminal
use that is often made of it, after they
are removed beyond its control, it seems a
wonder that net mere is done in that di
rection. Adjourned te Saturday, June 25, 1881.
A NEW rOET.
Discovered In Drumore."
Fer the Intblligexcer.
The following rhythmatical production
was found- in Fairfield in the ' 'lower end,"
for Fairfield beasts two ends, although it
is behind Uffleman's house which had a
" middle end." It was found tossed around
hither and thither, by the summer breeze,
as lightly as if it were a common piece of
paper unincumbered by its erudite lead,
but was fortunately snatched from the
playful and inapprcciativc breeze, and ten
derly laid in the hands of veur most bless
cM correspondent, whose name shall go
down te posterity with its undimming
brightness rivaled only by the name of the
poet whose production your scribe lays at
the feet of an expectant public, honored as
the name of the one who rescued and pre
served the " fugitive " that only the ether
name could write.
But there is trouble. It is net known
who wrote it. Your scribe has the origi
nal MS., which he will be happy te show
te any one interested in such things, aud
will lend considerable time and a large ex
perience in that line, and a natural apti
tude for fixing upon someone such an
immortality as this, hunting a name. Oh,
why arc authors se foolish thet they write
thus anonymously and send lleating
through the air of our literary world sueh
creations as the ene spoken of, "Gil
Bias," " Arabian Nights" and "Beauti
ful Snow," leaving their origin a source
of the Nile, or a subject for everlasting
contention among the literati ?
It can be seen upon perusal that the
subject of the following poem is Jehn
Leng. Net at all a poetical name is plain
Jehn Lern;, although Jeka Leng aa a per
sonage may teem with poesy's blossom.
It will be observed, tee, that Jehn is a
flopper, and that the questions aimed at
him, a public man of oearse he is a pub
lic man should have preapt and satis
factory answers. Next the words :
eh Johnny Leng, I am surprised te sea
Yeu are getting into bad company :
Yeu have left the path treaden by the swine.
And traveling en the read: with Levi Bovine.
Johnny, have you forgettea three yean age ?
new, entnusiasuc ana witn nearcagiew.
Yen pleaded MeMaUen reformation will
bring
By defeating Sensenig and the Bull Ring ?"
Johnny dear, can yen tell me wby se seen
The hogs te you .nave lest their sweet per
fume?
Why your old friend MeMallen must be set
aside.
And his place by Levi Sensenig be supplied T
Hew affectionately the author speaks of
"Johnny dear?" Frem the context one
would infer that Johnny is a politician of
the Lancaster county Republican breed,
and the idea of ene of that drove being
"dear," is an idea certainly original with
the poet, and is assuredly a most hyper
bolical example of modern poetic license.
This poem was written before the recent
primary, ever which some of our so se
called " better thinking Republicans " say
they are sick, bnt the only tonic that cures
our Republicans is Republicanism. They
say, periodically, that it makes them sick,
but they turn te it again " as the deg te
his vomit." New, in conclusion, it is
your scribe's opinion that "Johnny dear "
ewes your scribe a goodly amount of
thanks for giving him this opportunity for
explaining his platform ; and that this
great unknown poet should sing an ever
lasting song te the praise of the one who
has thus started him en the tramp of fame
and forever love, honor and protect
Drumore.
