The Presidents Defence.

President Johnson sent to the
Senate on Monday, special mes.
sage, defending and justlfying his
action in tho removal of Secretary
Stanton. He makes the point that
Stanton was not originally ap,
pointed by him, but held over
undet his appointment by Presi'
dent Lincoln, only by sufferance ol
the President, and thus does not
fall under the provision of the
tenure .of.office act relating to
members of the Cabinet. The
President urges this point with
ingenuity and force, The inves.
tigalion which is now inevitable
will show TO what weight it is en-.
titled.

CaDital Oh the Farm.

Many persons who have paid no attention
to the principles of social economy, think
that manual labOr is the only source of
wealth. If this were true, then man with
hais naked hands could produce Just as much
value in the course of IA year as one with a
million of capital Let us see how this will
work on farm.
Under the old system of cultivation, q
hundred and fifty TO two hundred dollars
would furnish all the implements necessary
for carrying ON large farm. Nor, it il an
easy matter to invest from ten to fifteen
hundred dollars for implements to carry on
the same farm, and with that capital, one
man will produce as much value from the
same land five men could without it,.
This difference is all due to capital combin-
ing its productive energies with labor. Some
may suppose that the difference is attributa-
BILE to the inventive genius and labor which
produces the machines. 1t is, originally, 1T
is true, but all that is paid for by the farmer
who purchases and uses the machines, and
they thenceforth become his capital, just like
any other accumulations of labor and previous
capital
Capital, it should always be remembered,
consists of the accumulations of labor, and
Of capital previously acquired, and that cap
ital, joined with labor, is capable OF repro
ducing itself. Otherwise there would be no
motive for accommodating anything Ana
here We may remark en- PEASANT. that thoss
who owe capital such a spite that they wouid
fain rob it for the fruits of it's own agency ~ !,
production, would. just 50 far, destroy al
motives for its accumulation, and banlsn IL
from the world.
They seem to act upon the principle tna'
every poor man would be better OH il his fico
Green-Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1844-1884, 1868-01-15

neighbor could be induced to become as poor
as himself
Within the memory of men now living,
agriculture was not supposed to be capable
OF furnishing capital, properly defined, with
very much employment. few simple in
struments were all that were supposed to be
capable of aiding the farmer, and the rest
was done by hard, muscular exertions-by
the sweat Of the face. But how wonderfully
has all this been changed within the last
thirty years Instead Of toiling and sweat
ing ell summer over the hoe. the scythe and
the cradle, the farmer may jump into spring
seat and drive gaily around his fields, while
capital does his planting and hoeing, and
reaping and moving, as if 1t were thing oil
LIE AMI thought, and instinct with marvellous
skill. And instead of drumming all winter
long with a fail upon the barn floor to thresh
out few hundred bushels Of grain, he dou-
bles forces with his reighbors, and the how
ling. hungry, irOned toothed thresher digests
It's thousands of bushels in few days, and
the crops is off to the market, and the treas
ury notes are in his till, drawing interest.
Capital is hencetorth to be permanent
copartner with labor in the prosecution of
agriculture now will the necessity tend TO
the consolidation of landed estates in the
hands Of the few. Agricultural machinery
Will pay for itself 50 fast that farmer can
work himself into the possession Of all, or
most Of the modern improvements. with but
little more effort than was formerly needed
to possess himself of the few simple imple
ments of the olden time. The use of machin
cry may tend TO restrain too minute sub
division of lands, which in France and some
other European States has long been felt as
an evil bat we are confident it will not
impose any greater restraint in this direction
trsIa h. hos
all will demand.
Every farmer, then, should have his eye
upon furnishing himself, as fast as his cir
cumstances will permit with all these i'm
proyements in implements which, from the
extent of his farm, and the nature of its pro-
ducts, he can proftably employ Wis. Far
n7er.

plague upon the people fell,
a famine after laid them low
Then thorpe and byre arose in fire,
For on them brake the sudden foe;
So thick they died the people cried
"The gods are moved against the land"
The priest in horror about his altar
To Thor and Odin lifted a hand.
- Help Us from famine
And plague and strife!
What would you have of us
Human life
Were it nearest,
Were it dearest,
answer . answerl
We give you his life"
But still the foeman spoiPd and burn'd,
And cattle died, and deer in wood.
And bird in air, and fishes turned
And whitend all the rolling flood;
And dead men lay all over the way,
Or down i'll fnrrow scathed with flame;
And ever and aye the Priesthood moaned
Till at last it seemed that answer came;
The King is happy
In child and wife:
Take you his nearest,
Take you his dearest,
Give life
The Priest went out by heath and hill,
The King hunting in the wild:
They found the mother sitting still:
She cast her arms about her child.
The child was only eight summers Old
His beauty stiil with his years increased
His face ruddy, his hair was gold,
He seemed victim due to the Priest
The Priest exulted,
And cried with jOy
Here is his nearest,
Here is his dearest.
We take the bow
The King returned from ont the wild
He bore but little game in hand;
The mother said, " They have taken the child
To spill his blood and heal the land;
Tine land is sick the people diseased,
And blight and famine all the lea:
The holy Gods, they must be appeased,
SO pray you tell the truth to me.
They have taken son,
They will have his life
Is he your nearest2
Is he Your dearests
answer, o answer
OR |, the wife,"
The King bent low, with hand on brow.
He stayed his arms upon his knee;
40 wife, what to answer now?
For now the Priest has judged for me-
The King was shaken with holy fear;
THE Gods " he said, would have chosen well
Yet both are near, and both dear
And which the dearest / cannot tell
But the Priest was happy,
His victim won.
we have his nearest
We have his dearest,
His only SOM"
The rites prepared, the victim barred,
The knife uprising toward the blow,
To the altar-stone she sprang alone,
=" Me, me, not him, my darling, mol"
He caught her away with a sudden cry;
Suddenly from him brake the wife,
And shrieking q am his dearest, L
lam his dearestiD rush'd on the knife.
And the Priest was happy,
:" Oh, Father Odin,
We give you life,
Which was his nearest?
Which was his dearest?
The Gods have answered:
