startling Facts.

United States Senator elect, which
.csantains some facts well calculated to
Eapress the people of the North with
,9he direct interest which they have
IN restoring the peace and prosperity
atnthe-South. Speaking of the taxes
,aeuived from internal revenue alone,
-Mr. Thurman says that the amount
4,nid by the whole ten Of the South
era States for the last fiscal year was
-S19, ,69S, 749; in the same year, Ohio
p,aid $25, ,081, 409-so that the South
,ern States, which formerly paid their
.fnll share, if not more, of the taxa
zion of the country, are now so re-
,.duced that, in the last fiscal year,
Ohio paid SIS, 1897, 900 more than
Them all. Senator Thurman then
undertakes to demonstrate that the
taxation of the people of this coun-
try is far greater than ever was i'm
posed upon any people. In the last
1iscak year, $500, 900, 900 were collect
ed in taxes by the General Govern
zaent alone. The taxes collected by
the States amount to not quite $780,
acc. 900 ,more--making the entire
4z1ation. in round numbers, $780,
900, 900. The gross annual produc-
tioa of the industry of the United
States, according to the census of
1860, was $4,000, 900, 900. Allowing
1for the4diminished production of the
:: South, and for increased prices, it is
mot supposed to be greater now.
Thus more than one-third of the
whole annual product of the indus
4cy of the country is absorbed by
faxatiou. Mr.. Thurman then pro-
'tcseds to inquire what is the.net profit
of the production of this country;
and taking as a standard the average
rate at which money is loaned and
6orrewed-that being q rule laid
down by every writer on political
economy. to obtain an approximate
idea of the net profits of the produc-
;.ion-o of a country-and assuming ten
per cent t''c average rate of inte-
'restsin United States, which is
certainly ii enough, the net profits
OF the industry OF the United States,
as the productions of agriculture and
manufactures of all kinds, would be
5000, ,OO0,O00 Thus taxation draws
Srom the people $500. 200, 900 year
more than the net profits of all the
producing industry of the United
States-a great portion of the taxa
: tion, however, being, of course, upon
productive employments, those
engaged in buying commodities and
Eelling them again, who, though Sc
curing large individual gains, do not
Increase the wealth of the country
particle. Yet the startling fact re-
eaains that one-third OF the gross
annual product of the industry of
.he country is absorbed by taxation.
Such is the price which the people
must continue to pay, so long as a
policy is pursued which renders ne
cessary large military establishments
and freedmen's bureaus, and Which
hAnde over one of the largest and
formerly most productive sections of
the country to increasing impoverish-
nent and the prospect of ultimate
ain.

Agricultural papers have been talking q
good deal about this grass of late. 1t made
its appearance, few years ago, in some OF
the Southern States; but whence it came, or
who brought it, was entirely unknown 1t
is said to spread with great rapidity on
poor lands as well rs rich, makes good hay,
is great grazing grass-cattle being very
fond of it and fatten rapidly from the use OF
it. 1t will take root on land uncultivated-
though it hourishes better, of course, by cul'
tiyation, and is such vigorous, hardy,
spreading grower that it will speedily take
the land, stop gullies, cure CALLED hllsides,
and smother all noxious weeds. These &C.
counts struck us as somewhat extravaganl
and smacking a little of morus pultcau,
lis; and it was added that, when once sown'
itwould abide forever, we feared that ii not
a blessing. it would be curse.
The last Farmers Gazette publishes lei
ter from Mr.. B. D. Lumsden, OF Putnam
county, Georgia, in relation to it, which re-
moves our apprehensions. Mr.. L. says
has never been cultivated IN his region, ous
it grows wild /; and, though it las Desl
there only six years, it covers all the Wv
fields and lands in cultivation. He says =
bears hard pasturage and will seed ilseil
All kinds OF stock feed on it in preieregi0"?'
to other grasses. 1t makes good hay: II D
rapidly destroying broom sedge and Bernu,
da grass and other pests. 1t comes 'e ess
early in the spring, and thereby gets I tnS
start of all weeds. 1t is an annual ami ais'
out each year. 1t may be easily destrG iuu
1t grows on any soil. Bears great aou u
