We have no disposition to make inviulons COM
PARSONS and shall therefore leave the deductions
from these facts 10 be made by the Intelligent rea-
der, with the single remark, that had surveyors
been sent out 10 examine ihese two districts OF
country. with 4 view TO making asettlement, New
England certainly would not have been selected
as the most advantageous. ii
What might not Virginia have been, had she
possessed Tree population fromthe commence :
ment, and had turned her attention to manniac.
turesi Strange to cay, New England excefds
her nearly t,centy:fse millions in agriculture be-
sides her other productions. III
We take il then as proven beyond all Rdoubt,,
that manufactures, through the stimulus they
give to the home market. are the very lie and
soul Of agriculture.
Mr.. EDrroR The above, (Which | enclose for
your columns1 il from the Philadelphia Daily
News. Although that paper, occupying central
and neutral position between Virginia and New ].
England, leaves the deduction from these facts
to be drawn BY the intelligent reader'--yet AZ
we, Of this Valley, are q party most deeply in
terested, allow the aid Of your press to give the
subject little more extended attention.
From the above, it appears that New England
sustains more than twice the free population 10
all the population OF both classes 10 Virginia, per
square mie--although 900 square miles less in
area, yet Of the above named products, New Eng
land, in the single year Of 1910, furnished, or
! produced, SlI99S3,24s more than Virginia
That the total products Of New England yearly,
are nearly TIRES times as great as those OF Vir-
ginia--lhat her agricultural products is @4os ~
greater per square mile than onrs--that the an
nual earning and income for each individual IN
New England averages $50 SO cents while that
Of Virginia averages bat S54 % cents--difisring
more than one.third, Or e2S 80 cents per head,
. greater in New England annually, for each man,
woman, and child.
Another important fact in conaexion with the
above Is shown. where this great prosperity seems
to spring ont from among the sterile hills, Is that,
although their agricultural products exceed ours
BY oDe-thiri, yet that there, Ihs manufacturing
products, exceed their agricuItural By over Ss,-
600 ,0O0-showing ina conclusive manner where
the difference stated mainly arises for il viii Be-
observed, that though the agricultural products
Of New England are greater per square mile By
one.fhird. yet the population being double. they
are less pr csp;tn.
Showing this great disparity to arise from
I manufactures solely another suggestion Of mine

tislics. until the returns with ths census Of 1850

MISCELLAN EOUS.
TELEcRAPuIc SCHEMES.


When Puck, Shakspeare's King of the
Fairies, intimated his intention of running
girdle around the earth in forty minutes, he
did not dream that the people Of the present
age would ever conceive the idea of eclipsing
his wonderful feat. That such is the case,
however, may be easily demonstrated.
n A memorial, for example, has been sent to
Congress asking for assistance to run tele-
graphic wire across the Atlantic ocean, at
certain point where it is only 1000 miles
wide. Much Of this space is said TO be COW
cred with immense fats, on which telegraph
ic wire, covered with non-conducting sur
face is to repose. In the present state Of
knowledge it appears to US this scheme isTim-
practicable Every minute crack in the COW
ering Of the wire would suffer portion Of
the electricity to escape, and the sum Of these
cracks would dissipate the entire charge be-
fore il had passed hundredth part Of the
distance.
a somewhat more feasible plan has been
suggested to us by distinguished scientific
gentleman of this city. This plan consists in
anchoring line Of stout vessels across
Behring's Straits, and supporting on these
the Geographic wire But the question now
arises, would not the icebergs floating down
from the North Polo be aptto interfere with
this arrangement Andthen again the bare
idea Of planting . telegraph line Al the way
from the United States to Behring's Straits,
over wilderness Of ice and snow, Is enough

Physicians in the country rarely carry scales with
them to weigh heir prescriptions. They administer
medicines by guess, from teaspoon or the point Oh
knife. Suppose a common case. physician, IN
hurry leaves an overdose of tartar emetc, (gehef-
ally the first prescription in cases OF bilious ieVerO
and prsues his way to another patient ten miles
distant When the case becomes alarming, one
messenger is dispatched for the doctor and another
to call in the ncighbors to see the sufferer die Now
there is in a canister on the cupboard, and on tree
that grows by the door, remedy for this distress
and alarm-a sure means of saving the sick man
from threatened death. A strong decoion of young

in a few hours Cooks sometimes permit pickles 10
remain in copper vessels that they may acquire a

Females have often been thrown into disease by
eating such dainties, and many have died, in some
instances without suspccting the cause The lady
has certainly some reason To congratulate herself
upon her education, il under such circumstances she
knows that pickles rendered green by verdlgrIs, are
poisonous and that the white Of an egg is an anti
dote.
Illustrations might he multiplied, but our space
forbids. Enough has been shown, we hope, to con
vince the u,itarian that knowledge OF chemistry
is an important element in the education of the e-

fed for the duties dcvovnr upon them in the do
nestle relations, and poorly prepared to meet its
emergencies.
