A cot respondent of Hie New York
World lias this to ssy of the election frauds
in (he Old North Slate
A enlled council, composed of the meiu
her* of the Democratic State Fxecutivc
Committee, some of the principal parlies
in defeated interest, and several other
prominent men of the party in the State,
was held here lost week to decide upon
the question of contesting the fraudulent
election ol the Radical ticket in August
before the Legislature, which convenes on
the thiid Monday in November. The law
requires tidily days’ notice to the adverse
parties; but whether the thirty next lie
ini'* the convening of the I.egidatuie or
any other thirty during the re; .-ion seems
not to hnve been quite clear. The point
was much argued to-day in the council,
by some of the ablest lawyers iu the State,
to the final conclusion, without dissent,
that any thirty days to run and expire be
fore the adjournment of the session was
Hie meaning and intention of the law. And
upon this view It win thought advisable to
defer the notice. Hut lind lids primary
point been differently decided, the notice
would liavc issued immediately, for the
reports of fraud* to the Chairman of the
Committee, all in the nature of evidence,
allow an aggregate of more than 11,000
voles —4,(Mi1l iu excess of Hie gross Radi
cal majority. And that side depend upon
Grant s re-election alone to maintain them
in it, either by intimidation, to prevent the
conical, or by direct and forcible inter
ference.
ANOTHER DIAMOND SENSATION.
X I'AKTY OK l-KOMINBST CAI.IKOHNIANS
IICAVK THK I'ACIKIC UOAII AT Ill'll
IIKSKHT ON A DIAMOND HUNT.
[ Omnha.Urc October JO.
Day before yesterday a large parly of
diamond hunter*, Composed of prominent
and wealthy thillfornlaus, came over tho
Central I'acilie and Fnton a* far a* Red
Desert. They travelled in a special train
of four ear* of the Central I‘nciflc direct
oik They were supplied vvilli a large and
rich quantity of diituunid specimens, maps
chart*, the latest Government surveys,
ami . the most recent decisions of the At
torn' y -General In referenced to entering
mining tracts. Several experience iniucrs
timl experts aecompaincd the party, ami
the whole outfit, owing to Ilieir wealth
and station in life, received the utmost
courtesy from the official* ol the road*
It was their first Intention to leave the
iad at Rawlins, hut as the secret of Ilieir
expedition hud leaked out. they took their
departure from tin- Red Desert. Hi* said
that their destination is distant from ten
to lltleeii day*' travel on horseback from
this point, and that they started in a direc
tion widen would lead them south of
Bridgcr's Folk. Their movements and
Intentions vvete kept as secret as possible,
but the conclusion is Unit Hie members of
lids party compose the great California
Diamond Company, about the organization
of which there was so much excitement
created by the San Francisco papers. It
will be recollected that on the morning of
August 1, ICdwmd Aruold, of Kentucky,
arrived in this citywith a parly of colored
men, and it was reported that they were
going out on a hunting expedition
It afterwards turned out that this Ar
nold was a diamond discoverer, the secret
having leaked out after and his parly Inal
reached Laramie, from which place lie de
parted for the land of diamonds as origi
nally discovered by him, kut not until the
Sentinel cf that place bad published a
couple of sensations couceruing hitu
Nothing more vv as heard of him until three
or four days ago, when he passed -through
tliis city on Ins way Fast The arrival of
that Californian party at Red Desert and
Ilieir mysterious departure just after Ar
uoid had come Fast look* a little curious
It Is claimed that a job has been put up
on Arnold, be having been imbued by
someone lo come Fast so Unit the Califor
nian* could come iu dining bis absence
and under mine him. \Vr look for further
interesting developments concerning this
matter, ami in u day or two shall proha
bly obtain something more definite

Unit or ll.iirlin.iritU Dispatch .-—As the
lime is near when we should save our po
tato plantings. I'll give you ray plan.
After the viues are killed with frost, as
soon thereafter as the weather ia warm
enough not to chill the potato, plow them
up with a small plow, aud pick them up
careftilly. Round out a place in the earth
about three inches deep, so as to make a
small ridge around the circle Urge enough
to hold thirty-five bushels, then sprinkle
plenty of dry pine straw, place the plaut
iiiKS on this bed. and cover over with dry
straw to the depth of ten or twelve inch' -.
then bauk completely over, the same day
you dig At the same time ditch mound
the bank so os to drain off the water. I
do not think that I have lost one bushel in
ten years, though we hud some very unfa
vorable winters. The straw is better than
boards or bark. You can also keep your
eating potatoes in lids way.

Most Profit in Prompt Marketing.
No producer should lie a speculator,
not should a farmer, a* a rule, hold his
crops, with the idea that he insy thereby
influence the market. The effects of ull 1
contingent h ■ are discounted at the com
mercial ''cubes that is, they ellect prices
Into- before the produce is handled. Thus
tiic conditions of crops are far better
known to tlio*■ • whoso business it ie to ;
market them and to the consumer than to j
those who raise them. The former class
have, in lluir course of business, the
means of accurately ascertaining the ap
proximate yield of all tho stuplo crops
liy which their trade is effected, and they
use those means in the most effective man
ner. It is Ilieir business, and they suc
ceed or fail in proportion as they manage
well or ill.
Farmers cannot compete w ith them in
this, and generally suffer when they at
tempt it. Asa title, it is true thul the
sooner crops are marketed the better for
the producer. An example muy be seen
in the matter of wool, the present season.
Those farmers who sold ilieir llceces as
soon n they were shorn did well, while
those who held on for higher rates, and
tlio*i: who still hold on, have lost, or will
probably loose fin with the pork market.
The lirst hogs ready for Hie butcher, more
especially those for the reluil trade, as
fresh polk, rarely fail In bringing lietter
prices Ilian those coining iu with the
crowd a month or two later Hut it is in
grain that the farmer 10-es most by delay.
From the moment his crop is harvested
it is the prey of enemies Rats and mice
consume it, and the weevil silently and
secretly eats out its heart, llovv much ire
sutlers by these industrious enemies one
cannot estimate. Every farmer knows
how it Is himself to his sorrow, and vet
year by year he waits, an I -vails, for Hie
highest prices, which lately come, and
when they do come they fail to caver his
!o- > * To thrash early, and realize the
highest price he may, is nearly always, if
not always hi* best course, and the most
profitable. It is his privilege to speculate,
lint if he loses let him mil lay the blame tp
, his own proper business.

Do People Read Advertisements?
There Is now and then a person so stu
pid as to believe that advertisements in
uewspupers arc not generally read, and
that money expended iu advertising is
practically wasted. Even such will con
cede that if a hundred men of polite ad
dress. of lluent speech and ready wit were
to call daily or weekly each upon an hun
dred others and get the eats of caclt long
enough to say J no. Smith, or Jones, or
Thompson at such a place, has such and
such goods at such prices, or would sell a
farm, or house and ldt, or had lost a horse
or pocket book, or would loan money, etc
—vve say such men will concede that the
services of this one hundred men would
be of great value to Smith or Jones, and
in some measure advantageous to the
party to whom this statement was made
This hundred men could not be employ
cd to go Irom door to door and make this
statement to ten thousand people at less
than u cost of several hundred dollars each
trip. All this is done by the newspaper
ut a cost of a few shillings or a few dollars
at most, and the visits arc made week after
week, day after day. The messenger who
travels addresses himself to the ear and
takes the party addressed when he may
have his thoughts absorbed in business or
| other matters ; but the newspapers reach
es the party through the eye, when the
reader has his thoughts solely fixed upou
I the paper before him.
Hut those who affect to believe that j
there is little use in advertising urge as an j
objection that advertisements are not read.
They cati be easily convinced of their er
ror in tiiis respect by making inquity.—
Let them insert an advertisement offering ’
to purchase an article that is tolerable
plenty in the market, and they will be
flooded with offers to sell before the ink of
the advertisement is dry. An enterprising j
weekly that has a circulation of one, two ,
or three thousand copies is in a position to
the villuge merchant great good, and for
which as a rule, the publisher does not get
one-fourth of what lie justly deserves. In i
its sphere the weekly is of quite as much 1
service to the advertiser as is tho daily, and
oftentimes it enjoys the privilege of being
the exclusive family visitor, a privilege the
daily seldom has. — Union nod AiUertbcr,

THE I'KIMUM WEEKLY.
IT is universally conceded that advertising- is
a necessity to success in business; it is also
conceded, b> the shrewdest business men, that
newspapers are the tiest medium tor reaching
all parties whose trade is desired.
THE MONROE ADVERTISER
reaches more of the people trading with Ma
con than any other journal published in the
country; it is, therefore, the hot medium of
communication with the plauting intere-ts.
We will be happy at any lime to furnish rcter
ences to leading merchants here and elsewhere,
who will testify to the fact that they have re
ceived orders for goods from parties’who r, ad
their cards in The .tdierfwcr Iu fact, many
who have availed themselves of its columns,
candidly say that its value exceeds that of ali
other journals in which they are represented
The Adiertieer has the freshness of vouth a id
the ripen.-ss of age, and is therefore deserve Iv
successful.
CHARACTER OF ADVERTISEMENTS.
No adiertisements are ad. ,itted which ..re
not believed to be above question and of real
value, and from parties so unquestionably re
liable that the readers of The Advertiser will be
safe in ordering them from any distance. To
our readers, toe fact of its appearance here has
all the weight of endorsement and authority
