What mollifying influences the ohcee of President may have upon him we can not, tell, lie may, as indicated in his inaugural, carry out the policy of his predecessor, or he may, following the advice of Conkling and Grant, pursue the opposite cours~e. Time alone can settle this. But should lhe choose to pursue a poliey difoerent from that of Mr. Giarfield, we do not believe ho could de the country much hairm.

During last week we conversed with many substantial farmers of this County in refor, enoe to the public meetings whicb have been held by the farmers in other Counties. at which demands were made by' them fler a reduction on their guaa andprevislon bills. The views expressod by us in Two SNarmar, last week, seemed to meet universal commen dation. They all declared their intention to pay every cent of their bills if it was poseible for them to do so; but in the event of fNilure to pay all, -they would pay a part, and make their own individual arrangements for the balance. They deplored anything like a combination of farmers, as suoh a course would result. in a counter combination on the part of the merchants, and they, having the law on their sido, would be enabled to litter ally crush and ruin the farmer. They are corning forward with their uzual promptness in this County and paying up or mnaking eat isfactory arrazge-ie'i s with'their merchants, and perfect haimony and oonfid.inco exiots be tweei tOeim.
