And Thus Counterbalance the Northern Blaine Defection, Proceedings of Congress Yester- day at the National Capital, Italy Growing Very Angry Over Our Art=Tariff Dues, Further of the Flare Up the Californians in Maine, by POLITICAL PROSPECTS, WHAT KIND OF A CAMPAIGN, Special Dispatch to Tie Beg, WasminaroN June 10.—What sort of a campaign shall it be is now the ques- tion which agitates the breast tf the aver- age republican politician. Of course, with the name of Blaine, it is looked up- on as an aggressive campaign, and it is possible that this idea will prevail in the months that come between this and No- vember. Preparations have already been made for work. The campaign fund will ! be large and its use will not be confined to the doubtful states of New York, Ind- iana and Ohio, but will be extended to the south. Interviews with politicians from the southern states show that the ticket of BLAINE AND LOGAN is the most popular one that coald have been nominated for the South, Such men as Randolph Tucker, of Virginia; Skinner, of North Carolina; Barbour, of Virginia, and others, say frankly that if any ticket can carry the states of ginia, North Carolina and perhaps Flori- da and ;Louisinia, it is the one nominat- ed at Chicago last Friday. With this idea it is understood attention will be turned toward the south,and that the doubt which attaches to the possibility of carrying New York will be met with an effort to carry the southern states.

MAD 'MACCARONIL, ARTISTIC ITALY ANGERED AT US, Rome, June 10. g minister of foreign affairs, addressing the chamber of deputies to-day, said that if the bill before the American congress, placing foreigners upon the same footing as Americans in regard to duties on in- troduction into America of works of art, should not be considered by the 2lst inst., as demanded by Italy, he would take mensures to obtain compensation, a8 he considered the treatment of Italian subjects unfair and at variance with the treaty of commerce between the two countries.

These reports indicate a slight increase in the acreage, and a prospect for about an avorage yield. There is considerable increase in acreage in Dakota and for the northwest, while the remainder of the'spring wheat section practically holds its own in acreage. Thero is a tendency on the patt of agri- culturists in the wheat sections, omitting the extreme northwest and wost to de- crease the acreage rather than increasing, but as the number of agriculturists in- creases the total acreage keeps up to about its former standing.
