SENATOR DAvis's STEAMBOAT Law
"A correspondent of the Scientific
American says;
III you will look at the facts in the
case, taking for example the Mississip-
pi river and all its tributaries, l be-
lieve you will find the from the LIST Of
January, when the law took effect, to
this time, there has not been the loss
of life of single passenger, or even
an injury to one, upon all these wa
tiers, whilst in the seven months Of
1852, corresponding to these, there
wore over 500 persons killed. Taking
the explosions and accidents else
where in the United States for the
same period, they scarcely amount to
anything in comparison with the loss
before"

Presidents face and threatening him
with rebellion in case of his persistence
in favoring the great National Railroad,
backed him off the course. lie has
never personally committed himself in
public to the enterprise, so that he can
throw over Davis, disavow The Union

Winter Wheat in Lima.
Lima, Grant Co., Wis, !

July 18th, 1853.
MIR. Editor in your paper Of June
10Th, you make some remarks on piece
written by me, and published in the June
No. Of the Prairie Farmer, in which /
stated that winter wheat has been al
most total failure in this region for the
last three years. And in the close of
the article alluded to, make the remark
that there was but little winter wheat
sown last fall, SO that if the crop now
in the ground should prove to be good,
yet there would not be supply of win
ter wheat. Upon this you base your
remarks, and prove by some of my
neighbors, (whom you style some of the
best farmers in Lima, that winter
wheat did not freeze out last winter in
Lima, that it never wintered better, and
never looked more promising than if
does now for a heavy crop. Well who
said it froze out last winter not sir. I
intimated no such thing in the article
upon which you comment, (Which arti-.
Gle by the way was written about the
middle of February, when neither you
nor l or any Of even the best farmers in
Lima could oossibly tell whether the
crop then in the ground would be good
or bad, for the trying time for it had not
yet come, being the month of March. y
The omission of the date presume led
you to the conclusion that / meant to be
understood that the crops sown last fall
had winter-killed such was not my inten-
ton. In conclusion, | will inform you
that winter and spring wheat will both
yield a better crop than for the last three
years, SO judge from present appear
ances, but that Writer wheat wintered
better and was never more promising
than at present is net the fact, your wit
nesses to the contrary notwithstanding.
The yield per acre was better in 1917
40 than it will be this season, crops of
all kinds look we'll in this section of
the county SO far as my observation has
extended.
There are several things in your piece
upon which | would like to give nv
views, but have not time at present,
such for instance as the best time for
land, use of farming machines, I
such as drills, corn planters, cultivators,
&c., which do not wish you to UNDER

Pauperisna.

From all parts of the country we have
the same story-laborers are in great de-
mand, not only for the transient harvest
season, but fer regular work, at good
wages. And yet hundreds, if not thous-
ands of our vicious, Incorporate and la
zy will remain in the outskirts of the
large cities, leading miserable and
loathsome life, and giving unwise phi
lanthropists pretext to rail at our social
institutions, when the fault is in that
weak yielding to sinful indulgences.
which even an earthly Paradise would
not be exempt from.
But some have said, why the poor
have not funds to reach the country. =
Nonsense, they have legs-and no farm
house will refuse them sufficient to sat
tisfy their hunger and the side Of a hay
stack is better lodging in this warm
weather. than the filthy rooms ard Gel
lars in which majority of them SLEEP
nightly. But the truth is, it not because
they cannot find plenty of work, at good
wages, but because they prefer life
OF slothiul and vicious indulgence, that
they cling to their city novels. And
society fails in its duty towards them,
not from an excess of rigor and restraint
but FROM an excess of indulgence. The
man who can work and will not work
but prefers to live life of pauperism
vice and intemperance, should be made
to work, and compelled to live decently
Of course all compulsion being with
drawn, as soon as he is willing to corn
port himself like decent and Christian
man--his own good, and that of society
being the justification, of the constraint
to which he is subjected.
And something OF this kind will have
to be done, not only for the good of these
abandoned men and women themselves
but also 10 remove stigma upon our So
ciety which does not fairly attach 10 it.
There probably is no man, not disabled
by sickness in this city or State t the
present time, who cannot, not only earn
a living, but lay up money against the
occasional hard times, If he wW.
And SO with the Misunderstanding

with family of young children. Let
any one, after reading certain heart-reu-
ding accounts Of female restitution, in
certain papers, try to procure an Amer
lean domestic, of any degree of skill
or good seamstress, and see if his eyes
are not opened little. We are much
mistaken if there is not plenty of en-
|ployment, at fair prices, for every I'M
