The Death Warrant. To-Morrow's Weather Indications. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL Harhishuro, June 26.—The present aspect of the contest for the Democratic GnlDernatorial nomination shows Hopkins to have the largest number of votes pledged to his supj)ort: exhibits Pattison as having great latent strength outside of the Philadelphia delegation which is almost a unit in his lDehalf: leaves the question of lick ley B. Coxe's candidacy surrounded with uncertainty, while the field of dark horses, one of which it is possible may prove the victor, is unprecedentedly large. Hopkins' danger lies in loth his strength and weakness. If his claim that he is sure of the support of one hundred delegates should prove to bo justified the tirst ballot the forces of his opponents would be likely to concentrate on some one man. Outside of his friends there is a general feeling that he would be a weak candidate, and this idea appears to have taken such a firm hold that he might find it difficult to incroase his strength. Pattison's foroea are being adroitly managed, and his vote promises to become greater on every ballot. If a nomination is reached on the third ballot, the fight will probably l)e between Hopkins and Pattison. Correspondence of the Philadelphia Press. Kingston Notes.

Another now case of «ma)l-pox reported on Ross Hill. A new complication in the case was created this afternoon by the unexpected arrival of Mrs. Scoville, who is reported by her husband at Chicago as lost. Mrs. Scoville has arrived here, stops at a remote and obscure boarding house, and for the first time in the history of tho family seems to have taken pains to keep secret the fact of her presence in the city. Her whercalwut, however, had been discovered and to a porson who approached her, not in the person of an interviewer, she liad only to toll the old story. She thinks it a great injustice that her brother should be hanged and has brought with her a petition Bigned, she says, by 500 persons, which she insists shall be presented to the President. Our.market has fluctuated within very narrow limits tonlay. The main featui\*s have been dullness and comparative steadiness. The publication of the semi-annual statements of Lake Shore and Michigan Central failed to have any material effect the prices of either stock. What little decline there was in them was only such as would have happened in sympathy with the general falling off in prices. Now that it lias been decided to have a double holiday ou the Fourth, it is quite probable that we shall have very little to note in the speculators' market until after the new and old call attention to one Utile fact in verification of our repeated statements about Lake Shore, viz., that while the gross earnings of the road have fallen some $1130,000 during the past six months the expenses show an increase of nearly 8*200,000. The declaration of the dividend is accompanied by a promise of better earnings for the future. This may be but the canals have been open two weeks l inger this year than last year and their gross receipts show an enormous falling off higher rates for the railways may be maintained, bi.t they will have to compete with the water waj's all the same.
