Agriculture and Commerce Compared.

heard gentleman Of acute observation
and large experience say, many years ago,
that he had made out TWO lists, one of a con-
siderable number of farmers, and the other
of merchants. starting with fair prospects in
life the one class to live on the produce of
their farms, titled for the most part by their
own hands, and this under the comparative ely
imperfect system Of agriculture which pre-
vailed in the last generation the other to
take their chances in the lottery Of com
merce. At the end Of the term Tor which
the comparison was made, the farmers were
the more prosperous body. None Of them
had become very rich;-a few only had
wholly failed in life, and those few from
causes not essentially connected with ngri-
cultural pursuits. The greater part had
lived and brought up their taaIlies in com
fort. Of the merchants. by far the greater
part had wholly failed; and one or two only
had greatly prospered. Eceretfs last Letter
