Gold vs. Gree abacks-A View of the Case

A correspondent of the New York Express
writes as follows: ..s,-
In regard to the payment of Government
bonds there have been two modes proposed one
to pay both principal and interest in gold, al
though it will be forty years before the principal
can be paid by the country. The other is to pay
off the bonds in ''greenbacks," e1tinguishing
them at once.
Without expressing any opinion on the sub
ject the purpose of this article is simply to show
the comparative cost to the country of these
respective modes.
The interest on, say $4,000 100000 bonds is
S120,OOO,000 gold annually at compound; the
interest olone would in twenty-five years amount
to $4,000 600 600; in thirty three years the III
terest will have reached fourteen thousand mil
lion of dollars, and in forty-four years the IN
terest atone will have attained the climax of Hfyfy
thousand million Of dollars in gold. This is the
naked truth to what the country will have to
pay the bondholders in gold
Paying of at once in ,'greenbacks," the bond
holders say would be the most disastrous of all
modes, because it would occasion so great a de-
probation Of 'greenbacks' from their super
abundance.
Suppose, however, the depreciation should be
nlnetynine per cent, the loss to all the holders,
to the whole country, would be just two thousand
million of ''grcenJochS," against loss of thirty
too thousand miAion Of goid by the other process.
1 hat we must pay that sum to the bondholders,
IT the interest eottout tie principal shall continue
to be paid is fixed fact, and presents a serious
subject for consideration

that Tobacco, corn, wheat, oats vegetables,
fruits, beet, bacon, chickens, ducks, eggs-eyery-

high, land cheap, labor cheap, and, in the cases
we are speaking OF, admitted to be efficient, and

How fine their form, how sweet their faees
But, first, pretty foot give me.

But, first pretty foot give me.
And then they talk of auburn curls
Round necks bedecked with shining pearls:
All this may do for little girls,
But, first, pretty foot give me.
Teeth ivory white, and lips all rosy
The two together look so cozy
Sweeter far than a spring-time posy-
But, first, pretty foot give me.
On pretty hand love to DIV ell,
Twill all about its owner tell,
And oft make ugly faces sell,
But, first, pretty foot give me.
From pretty foot there's sure to spring,
An ankle that u muse ght sing,
And round it all his pathos fling,

English Farming.

A Canadian agriculturist who farms several
hundred acres OF land, and who has lately visited
I England, was struck with establishment at the
amount of grain raised in places well known to
him Che is an Englishman,J and which forty
years ago certainly did not grow half the grain
! now produced from the same land. -...-
| How is this 1t is neither season nor chance.
The seasons are the same as they used to be, and
the crops, as seen and examined by the party
alluded to were the extraordinary crops raised
every year on the same land. The course of
cropping was as follows: Wheat, turnips Cor
other root CROP the land having been ploughed
four times for the root crop, viz in the fall,
when the stubble was plouehed in, then cross
ploughed in the spring, and subsequently worked
till the season for sowing the turnips, with at
least three ploughings (often more,l and inter-
mediate dragging and narrowing and cultiyating,
until all the couch grass and other root weeds
were extracted and burned, or picked and car
ried off, and all the growing seed weeds destroy
ed. The land was then manfred with farnl-yard
manure, and finally the seed Of the root crop was
drilled in with artificial manure, such as super
phosphate, bone dust, guano, &c. Their crops
were then horse-hoed, and then finally hoed by
hand. Then when matured, they were huddled
off to sheep, or fed in some other way. The land
(being then as rich as possible, and clean from
an "Stoo,/ 10 hSAV PlNpdlCu lOl DdIlcy, WulCu
as might be expected, is certain to be noble
crop, yielding from forty to sixty bushels per
acre. The barley having been seeded down with
clover and rye grass, (of which the crop cannot
fail to be good the seed as the clover is called
are lightly fed off by sheep in the fall and allow
ed to grow up in the spring to be cut for hay.
The hay crop yields from two to three tons of
hay per acre, CASUALLY two and one-fourth to two
and one-halt;) the second growth is either again
moved for hay, or fed off with sheep, according
to the necessities of the farm; and finally, the
clover sod is turned under the same fall the
plouGhing being about two inches deep, and
sown with wheat, the ground being thoroughly
pressed before sowing, and the wheat we'll limited,
or otherwise dressed with blue vtriol, &c, and |
drilled in. The result is as might be expected,
a crop Of wheat Of at least forty, often sixty
bushels per acre. The same course is again fol-
lowed with the same results the land all the time
increasing in fertility, and becoming each year
better instead of worse.
There will be various notifications of this sys-
TEN, according to the quality ofthe land Some
times the wheat crop is omitted, and another
crop substituted, but on all the best lands of
England this course can be followed with i'm
punlty and without deterioration to the farm
