Register and Farmers Magazine" which contains great
deal of interesting well instructive matter The
chapter the annals of Delaware includes several
points new to and perhaps to the most of its readers,
upon the history Of that State, and its neighbour Penn
yvania The present political subdivision Of the form
er into three countless of New Castle Kent and Sussex
is the same in the first arrangement by William Penn
in 1882, and believe the number of representatives
in the Assembly under the Constitution of 1892 less
now than it in the old council of 1888, present
there seven members from each county, which in
ancient days used to send nine Perhaps this reduction
legislators is wise notwithstanding the proverb that Sin
the multitude of counsel there is WISDOM, for the expe
rence OF all the States in which the popular branch Of
the legislature is very numerous is that the business Of
the People is done by the few and the takig by the
many IN looking into the value Of the State Of Della
ware, in physical well productive sense we are
surprised to find, that compared with the District Of
Columbia she affords less to the Government
exports less, and employs less tonnage than the latter
and, besides this, angmens her population at much
smaller ratios while in point of political strength she is
one branch Of the National Legislature, the Senate, equal
to the largest States and III the other half strong the
large States of Missouri and Mississippi. VII

20 per cent; while that Of the District Of Columbia for
80 years 1872 per cent. l,5s
The State Of Delaware in 1884 imported to the value
Of $lo6ll; while the District imported goods worth
$lli,l95, or ten times than Delaware.
In that year the District Of Columbia exported to the
value OF $5l4,57l Of domestic produce; while Delaware
exported uutng. We led 10 This comparison by way
Of calling the attention Of Congress to the question Of
whether the Constitution has been strictly followed in
that particular which declares that taxation and repre-
sentaon shall be equal.
We have, however, dgressed from subject The
Register is periodical of great usefulness and servcea
BILE particularly to Farmers, in whose interest
great portion Of its pages enlisted. The typography
is excellent the scientific subjects of which it treats
we'll discussed, and at least equal to all the rest in
opinion there is Native American nature about it that
ensts our good feelings. We extract from it in our
paper of to-day one Of its miscellaneous pieces.
The Ladies Garland" for May has also been receiv

serves, not the less welcome that account This
seems to be the age Of Womans pre-emnence, which
consider presage of all that good TO the condition OF
man and to the country, in every thing except where
they endeavor TO extend their influence example to
the political institutions domestic relations OF the

evils in proportion the physical condition upon which

travagance OF men, and by the admitted purity Of their
motives and the virtue of their lives exciting almost

ton avoids all such topics; is chase in its selections

Garland s that they would add few flowers the sub

their wreathe may find some flowers peculiarly
grateful to our senses.
