THE FARMER FEEDErn ALL.

THE FARMER FEEDErH ALL.
My lord rides through his palace gate,
My lady sweeps along 10 state,
The sage thinks long ON many thing,
And the maiden muses. on marrying;
The minstrel harpeth merriy,
The sailor plows the foaming sea.
The huntsman kills the good red deer,
Aud the soldier wars without e'en fearj
But fall to each whate er befall,
The farmer he must feed them all.
Smith hammereth cherry-red the sword,
Priest preaeheth pure the Holy Word,
Dame Alice worketh 'broidery we'll,
Clerk Richard tales Of love can tell,
The tap-wite sells her foaming beer,
Dan Fisher iisheth in the mere,
And couriiers rullle, strut, and shine,
While pages bring the Gascon winei
But fall to each whate'er belall,
The farmer he must feed them all.
Man builds his castles fair and high,
Wherever river runneth by,
Great cities rise in every land,
Great churches show the builders hand,
Great arches, monuments, and towers,
Fair palaces and pleasing bowers
Great work is done, bet here or there,
And well man workeih everywhere;
But work or rest -whate or beiall,
The farmer lac must feed them all.

Of wheat in that region was generally from thirty
to forty bushels per acre. Probably ten bushels
to the acre would be a good yied now ON the same

crop Of Ohio in 1867 to be four bushels to the
acre and that the freshest lanes east Of California
will scarcely yield an average Of twelve bushels.

Hon. Henry J. Raymond has written a long let

tion. lie went into Il for the purpose Of aiding
the Union party, that is, Ms he understood il the

showing how sadly hey have @anged since is
the most interesting part Of his communication.

should support or aid in any WY the success Of

GRANTS LIFE BEFoRE THE WAR-Thc new
life OF Gen. Grant, written by Col Badeau, of
his staff thus sketches the antc-war life OF the now
foremost man in the country -
'Thus, when the civil war broke out, Grant
was private citizen, earning his bread in an in
significant inland town. lie was of simple habits
and tastes, without influence, aad unambtious.
Having never been brought in contact with men
OF eminuncc, h. hal no personal knowledge of
great affairs. He had never commanded more
than a company Of soldiers and although he bad
served under both Scott and Taylor, it was as sub
atern. and without any opportunity OF intercourse
with those commanders. He had never voted for
a President but once he knew no politicians for
his acquaintance was limited TO army officers and
western traders; even in the town where he lived,
he had not met the member of Congress who rep
resented the district for nine successive years. and
who alteward became one OF bis most intimate
personal friends. of his four children, the eldest
was eleven years old. He lived in little house
at the top Of of the picturesque hills which
Galena is built, and went daily to the warehouse
of his father and brother, where leather was sold
by the wholesale and retail. He was thirty mine
years Of age before his countrymcn became ac-
quaintod with his name.p
