HILL’S CANVASS.

Senator Hill spoke at Rochester, N. Y., Thursday evening, to a large and enthusiastic audience. He referred to Cleveland as “our patriotic President,” and the sentiment was lou ily cheered. In the course of his remarks he deprecated the personalities of the present campaign, and said he had hoped to discuss the real issues at stake. In concluding, he said: “I know that throughout this State onr Republican friends do not seem to take that view of their duty. Ido not propose to imitate their example. [Applause.] I have not time to notice every political log that baiflis at me in this campaign. 1 propose to present to yon as fairly and as emphatically as I can what I regard as the issues upon which we are to pass, and whether yon agree or disagree with me it makes no difference, you will hear me for the sake of my cause.” There Is much excitement at Victoria, Mexico, over the assassination of Andreas 3alazar, the son of a prominent and. wealthy merchant of that place, by Gregorio Porras, a well known young man. The deed was done with a stiletto. Sal*-, tar was stabbed through the heart. Jealousy was the cause.
