BALTIMORE COMMERCIAL.

The monthly report of the Agricultural Depart-
ment for January contains a very interesting paper,
showing the rate of wages of farm labourers in Ame-
rica. It appears that the price of farm labour has in-
creased generally about fifty per cent., which is
thought to be less than the increased cost of living.
The average wages paid for farm labour in Mas-
sachusetts is greater than is paid in any other State
except California.. The reason is that a manufac-
turing State gives a variety of employment at high
wages, so that farm labourers may command their
own prices.
Wages by the year, without board, are set down
for New Hampshire at $32.74 ; Maine, $27 ; Ver-
mont, $32.84 ; Massachusetts, $38.94; Rhode Island,
$34.40 ; Connecticut, $34.25 ; New York, $29.57.
The difference allowed for board of farm
labourers depends on the cost of food products, and
is as follows :—Maine, $9.56 ; New Hampshire,
$10.76 ; Vermont, $11.84 ; Massachusetts, $16.58 ;
Rhode Island, $13.90; Connecticut, $12.71 ; New
York, $10.25.

chusetts :
CAUSES AND RESULTS OF HIGH RATES.—In those
States in Which regular labour is most general among
the inhabitants, and where it is prosecuted in
greatest variety, there will wealth abound and
prosperity be most generally enjoyed. And
another fact relative to such States will also be
noted—their labourers receive the highest rates of
wages.

Massachusetts has a poor soil, and cannot be
considered a farming State. In 1860 the United
States census returned 45,205 farmers and 17,430
farm labourers, while the total return of all oc-
cupations was 451,632. The State census of
1865 makes the number engaged in agricul-
tural pursuits 68,636, and those employed in
manufacturing 271,241. The employment of
-all this labour in commerce, in fisheries, in manu-
factures, in the mechanic arts, and in trade,
requires a consumption of farm products far
greater than the home supply. This enables farmers
to select those branches of their business most pro-
fitable under the circumstances, and least affected
by foreign competition, as the milk trade, the fruit
supply, and production of perishable vegetables.
The facility of obtaining employment in their occu-
pations gives the farm labourer a material advan-
tage, and enforces his demand for higher rates of
labour. The result is, at the present time, higher
monthly pay than any other State in the Union,
except California—viz., $38.94 per mouth for farm
labour, without board. lind while the neeesories

of life are also high there is no State in which the
agricultural labourer enjoys the comforts of life to
a greater extent, or is better fitted to act a credit-
able part in his sphere in society.

TION.

PARIS, April 3.

The Constitutionnel of this morning, in an article
signed by its chief editor, M. Paulin Limayrac, re-
lative to Herr von Bennigsen's interpellation in the
North German Parliament upon the Luxemburg
question, acknowledges the moderation of Count
von Bismarck's reply. The writer says :—" France
has no desire to threaten the interests of Ger-
many, or bring her honour into question. France
has no warlike tendency, but solely a deep sense of
what is just and equitable. Now it would have been
neither just nor equitable that Prussia, after having
achieved her great conquests without obstacle, should
jealously watch the smallest acquisition that might
be desired by her neighbours, not in the interest of
ambition, but of security.
Count Walewski has been nominated to the dig-
nity of Senator.

pending negotiations with the other Parliamentry
parties.

PROGRAMME OF THE SPANISH
GOVERNMENT.

MADRID, April 2 (Evening).

It is semi-officially stated that the Ministerial
programme for the present legislative session will
comprise the introduction of a bill of indemnity
approving the late decrees upon public order, the
municipalities, and the press. The Ministry will
also propose a modification of the regulations of the
Cortes, a settlement of the question of the Passive
Debt, and measures to improve the condition of the
Spanish railway cojnpanies.
A Royal decree has been published nominating
22 new Senators.

BAVARIA.

MUNICH, April 2 (Evening).
Manifestations of public opinion, provoked by
the Luxemburg question, aro about to take place in
Bavaria against any foreign encroachments upon
German territory. The promoters of these demon-
strations intend to pass resolutions to the effect
that the Bavarian p:..ople would consider any weak-
ness on the part of Prussia in this question as
equivalent to consenting to the sale of the Duchy.
London, England, 1867-04-03

Railway Distrust.

This time last year commercial matters in certain
quarters were approaching a panic, which then
loomed ahead threateningly, creating a feeling cif
painful uneasiness. The crisis came, and its effects
were felt over the land. What that shock was can
now be clearly seen, in shattered nerves and fright
at phantoms. No property can be absolutely secure,
but amongst the most secure are railways. Rail-
ways are real property ; they have a local, substan-
tial, and tangible existence. They rank in the first
order of national necessities. Although directors
may mismanage and finance them to death, yet
shareholders ought no more to permit it than the
lord of a manor to allow his agent to squander his
estate. Railways are not financial institutions. People
can see and understand what is being done, and
secrecy can only be required to conceal crime. Yet
the holders of this magnificent property, which
ranks scarcely second to any in the world, are
working themselves into a state of panic. Smitten
with the epidemic which seized on Joint-Stock
Company shareholders they seem to be combining
to destroy their property—if they can. But, for-
tunately for them and for the nation, it is not a
class of property that can easily be destroyed. The
" bears" have got the absolute ascendancy, and
having brought down in ruin almost everything
else, they are now successfully engaged in
frightening people out of railway property. It
would appear as if a man had only to in-
struct his broker to sell the shares in any rail-
way without holding a cent in it, and he is safe
in a few days to get a bona fide goose to give him
those shares,at a cheaper rate than he sold them,
thereby leaving a margin of profit for himself.
Thus the " bears" lead, and the public follow, and
follow so wildly that it really creates a feeling of
alarm in the uncertainty to what length they can
be induced to go. We would like to know how
those who sell railway property at a heavy depre-
ciation intend to invest the proceeds. Foreign
Securities can hardly be inviting with a war hang-
ing over Europe. The young colonies are heavily
enough burdened. Uncle SAM'S estate certainly
lies open, and is, in our opinion, beyond all compa-
rison, the best field. But the mass of the English
people have not yet recovered the confidence
formerly shaken by the repudiation of some States.
It will be long before they again feel any appetite
for Joint-Stock Company investments after their
late surfeit. In the meantime money is, becoming
a drug, and we presume this will end in banks
charging their customers for taking care of their
deposits. There is already over thirty-one millions
in the Bank of France, nearly twenty millions in
the Bank of England—double the amount usual in
the Bank of Holland, an excess in proportion in
other European Banks. The reign of distrust has
followed immediately on the reign of confidence—
and we seem drifting rapidly towards the reign of

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

PLATING AT " FENIANS."—TWO boys named George
Patten and Joseph Chaff were charged before Mr. Tyr-
whitt with playing at a game called " Fcnians," to the
common danger of the passengers iu Castle street, Leices-
ter-square.

Sergeant Jeffery, 21 C, said, that about half-past nine
o'clock the previous night he saw the two prisoners with
about 40 more boys running up and down Castle-street,
some of them being armed with sticks and some with
brooms. They were running against persons and knock-
ing their hats over their eyes. Patton had a thick stick
in his hand, and ran against an elderly female and nearly
knocked her down, and Chaff had a broom in his hand.
A tradesman was in court to speak of the nuisance caused
by the boys.
Mr. George Cox, of No. 18, Cecil-court, said that
nightly a number of boys were in the practice of tearing
up and down the court, much to the annoyance of tho in-
habitants and to the hindrance of business, and such was
the nature of the nuisance that no respectable person
would pass through the place. Several of the boys were
armed with sticks.

Patten said he did not have any stick. The stick was
picked up by the sergeant at his feet, another boy having
dropped it.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said that people who know nothing about
London would not believe what a nuisance the boys were.
He should flue the pritioners 40s. or 14 days' each, which.
would perhaps teach them not to assault and annoy per-
sons again, and if the boys were well flogged by their
parents it would be all the better.

STRIKE OF THE PARIS TAILORS.—At a meeting
of the journeymen tailors of Paris, held on Sunday
last, which was attended by 2,500 persons, it was decided
to strike for higher wages. Notice was to be given to the
masters on Monday, and if the conditions demanded were
not complied with, the strike was to commence'forthwith.
In the course of the proceedings M. Doguergue read the
following telegram from the Loudon Trades' Union, signed
y Mr. Matthews:—" Your telegram received. having
entire confidence in your success we promise you our moral
and material support." The meeting, after several salvos
of applause, telegraphed the following reply :—" The
Paris tailors assembled in the Hall of the Elysee Mont-
martre have
,received your despatch ; they accept your
generous offer of assistance, and thank you in the name of
humanity and fraternity."
THE TomanawK.—A new " satirical" weekly
paper is announced to appear shortly. Wo have reason
to believe that its proprietors are the members of the
Savage Club, whence, of course, its comic inspiration will
be derived.—The English Mail.
A SERIOUS ACCIDENT, AND ITS CONSEQUENCES.—Some
time back a gentleman residing at Waltham, in Norfolk,
named Balls, on returning from Harleston Jlarket, fell from
his horse, and sustained so serious an illness in co.,sequence
that all his hair came off. He was perfectly bald. His
friend, the Rev. Mr. Daniel, offered him a wig as a tempo-
rary substitute; and in the meantime he tried very fortu-
nately the effects of RowlNnds' Macassar 0.1. What was
the consequence ? Part of a bottle produced the re-growth
of a thick and luxuriant head of hair, with (what tl.e first or
original growth tad NOT) a beautiful tendency to curl. This
is a very striking instance of dile tcy from the fact of the
debility which preceded the restoration.

FRANCE AND THE LUXEMBURG QUES-

TION.

PARIS, April 3.

The Constitutionnel of this morning, in an article
signed by its chief editor, M. Paulin Limayrac, re-
lative to Herr von Bennigsen's interpellation in the
North German Parliament upon the Luxemburg
question, acknowledges the moderation of Count
von Bismarck's reply. The writer says :—" France
has no desire to threaten the interests of Ger-
many, or bring her honour into question. France
has no warlike tendency, but solely a deep sense of
what is just and equitable. Now it would have been
neither just nor equitable that Prussia, after having
achieved her great conquests without obstacle, should
jealously watch the smallest acquisition that might
be desired by her neighbours, not in the interest of
ambition, but of security.

Count Walewski has been nominated to the dig-
nity of
_Senator.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

ATTEMPTING TO GET UP A SCENE IN COURT.—Michael
Murphy, a labourer, was brought before Mr. Knox on a
warrant charged with assaulting his wife Mary, residing
in Cooper's-court, Windmill-street.
The prosecutrix having fainted just before the case was
called on, she was allowed to give her evidence seated, she
appearing or pretending to be very ill.
On being sworn she said, in answer to questions by the
magistrate—l don't wish to press the charge. It occurred
at 12 o'clock yesterday, but I don't wish to press it. Don't
put any more questions to me. He has been a good hus-
band to me. Let him go. Grant me my request. It won't
happen again. He'll be be a good husband for my sake.

Mr. Knox—How long have you been married?

Prosecutrix—Twelve years. It's all through his parents.
Mr. Knox ordered the prosecutrix to be assisted out of
court, she appearing to be quite overcome.
Paice (one of the warrant officers)—The prosecutrix is
not in such a bad condition as she pretends to be in.
Barns (the gaoler)—l have known the husband for
years, and he is a quiet, well-behaved man.

Mr. Knox—Did she appear in such a condition when she
applied for the warrant.
Paice—No, sir; not half so bad.
Mr. Knox—Then it is got up by her to deceive and en-
tertain the court.

Paice— That is so. Oa going to take the prisoner last
night she was rushing about the room, and the neighbours
said there was six of one and half a dozen of the other.

Mr. Knox—Prisoner I am inclined to think your wife's
fainting and all that is only to deceive me. 1 will take
the case as one of "no prosecution," and discharge you, and
if your wife wishes to attend again she can do so.

We have a lot of horses in strong preparation now.
Westwick and Rondinella look like going to Newmarket
next week, and Taraban also. The two former galloped a
couple of miles fast this morning, and Taraban did similar
work with Grand Cross and Wild Wind, who were led by
Knight of the Garter. They all go beautifully, as do Cora
Corrybantica, Souloque, and Verdi. Skylark aud Apple-
cross are still eased, but Bezique is doing a mile and a hal
pretty strong.
