HOW DAVID PRICE CURED HIS WIFE's
SHOCKING BAD TEMPER.


David. a man of meek and kindly spirit. had
long suffered from the patter-clatter, reverend
ing, scolding tongue of his rorser half. One
day, herb doctor greeted David at his work with
"weIl, Master David, and how be you?"
'oh, l be very well, thanks to ye, but my
wife's not so very nicely!
"indeed,'' said the gatherer of simplcs, with "A
quick ear for an alment. "what may be the mat
ter wi she, Master David?"
"Well," said David, in his usual and quiet
way, "she hev' bad breaking out about he

"Oh.'' said the herbalist, looking anxiously
up in David's face, 'sonly matter of a shiilug.''
"Well, that's dirt cheap" said David. "If you

With this announcement. Mrs. Price. firing

however, Mrs. Price has been wholly cured of
her scolding habits. David has only to look up
in her face aud say, "I'l get a box o that int

labor and skill. Commerce and manu-
features are chiefly artificial; apricuI-
ture is for the most part the work OF ma
ture. 1t is true that the facility with
which articles are produced from the
soil, influences their value in market, and
that the prices of different kinds of labor
tend to equality; and it Is true also, that
the prices of commodities are effected by
the relations of supply and demand,
Hence there is no such difference between
the profits of the farmer and the artizap,
or merchant, as the relative productive
ness of their labors would indicate. But
the interchange of commodities between
the two classes, is by no means equal, nor
is it obedient to those laws of trade. The
farmer holds the subsistence, and conse-
quently the property of his civilized feI-
low-men in his power and this power he
will exercise when circumstances permit,
according to the sentiments which the
possession of power inspires; according
to the prejudices of his class, to the ap-
peti of monopoly-and not according to
the wages of labor, and the law of sup
ply end demand. The monopoly of the
necessaries Of life which agriculture con.
fers, has produced some Of the most stri-
king social and political revolutions in
history. Itenabled Jacob to extort from
Esau, who was hunters his birthright.
for mess of pottage But Jacob him
self, and family, preferred the lighter la
bors of shepherd life to tillage, and hence
from scarcity of corn, became dependent
on the granaries of Egypt, and fell into
bondage. In wars Between agricultural
and commercial nations, the former have
generally conquered. Athens was over
come by Sparta-Greece by Macedon--
Carthage by Rome-events which indi-
cate superior resources of the conquerors.
more than their bravery. In England
whose commerce has been enriched by
the monopoly Of the trade of colonies in
every cline, and whose manufactures
have been expanded by the most stupen.
dous inventions of genius, agriculture still
remains pre-eminent in wealth and po-
iitical power although it comprebsnds
only about one-third of the population.
The agriculture of the South produces
greater variety and abundance of staple
articles of human comfort and subsistence
than any other region. Besides such
breadstuffs and provisions as the North
affords, the South has by the superior
genius and energy of her people acquired
almost monopoly of the cotton culture.
The South thus controls an extraordi-
nary proportion of that food and clothing
which the world consumes, and hence
makes corresponding progress in wealth.
