no larger than the reality. About one
quarter of it is held abroad or on foreign
account, the balance among citizens OF
the United States.
Az OLD FoGY.-There is a farmer resi-
ding at Quoge, Long-Island, 63 years of
age. who has never seen a steamboat
lie has only travelled twenty-five miles
East and thirty West Of his home. He
is possessed of land, and does not care
about selling it, as the money would give
him trouble. He once went to the River
head depot of the Long Island Railroad
with his daughter, and was so frightened
at the noise of the steam that he ran
away.
POTATO DISEASE IN Nova SCOTIA.-The
Yarmouth Herald of August Is says,
1.-the potatoe blight is extending in all
directions, and in this quarter the crop
will be mostly destroyed"
U" / say, Sambo, does we know what
makes de corn grow SO fast when you put
de manure on it." ''No | don't know
hardly, 'cept it makes the groun' stronger
for de corn" Now | jist tell We. When
de corn begins to smell de manure, it
don't like de 'fumery, so it hurries out of
the groun' and gitsup ashigh as possible,
so as to not breathe de bad air."
