The President's Tie,rs.

A Washington dispatch informs us that
the President. in conversation with a
distinguished financier day ortwo since,
saidtha, some of the leading journals had
naisrepsesea,ed his views. through their
Washington correspondent, upon the sub
jeot of dnanee. He declared himself in
favor of diminishing taxation so that its
burdens might be lighter upon the labor
ing classes, and he believed that with rig
nd economy in all the departments, and
the impartial aud thorough enforcement
Of the tax law, material reduction could
safely be made. without interfering with
the work going o. at the treasury, of SELL
ing gold, and buying bonds. He stated
further, hat while he was earnestly in ia
vOr Of resumption AZ the earliest possible
moment; he believed the present policy
OF the Treasury Department would take
gold so near at par that the last step could
be taken without danger 10 the business
interests Of the country, which interests
he declared must he remembered. The
President added tina, the substance of
these views would appear in his next
message.

South Paris.

Wednesday afternoon, Nov. 25th, the
citizens OF this vicinity assembled ut the
vestry of the Congregationalist Church,
To listen TO an address by Hon. Sidney
Perham, and to organize the Paris Far
mer's Club The organization was eff
fected as follows:
President. c. G.. Phelps; Vice Presi-
dent. Jairus X. Hammond; Secretary. g..
A. Wilson; Committee on Subjects, !. NJ
Thomas. A. S. Thayer, Stephen Richard
son. Then followed the address of Mr..
Perham, in the plain and forcible style so
well known TO the inhabitants of this
Congressional District.
Commencing with the fact. that by the
Laws of Nature, the people were divided
into classes. each having different call
ings and occupations; he showed how
these were all interviewer and dependent
upon each other---that any increase in
knowledge. or productiveness, in one
branch, scattered its benefits equally up
on the other; and in no occupation moro
so. than in Farming
True Farming is as much trade or sci
ence. As any other occupation, and 1t Is
matter of serious regret that so many
of the young men of our land. shun the
tilling OF the soil, to obtain bare sub.
sistence in trade. or some of the learned
professions. No man is so thoroughly
independent. n your thorough and pros
porous farmer.
Formerly, physical power was the great
motive power in agrieulture-now 1t Is
mental power. Machines arc construct
ed. to perform almost all of the ordinary
duties on the farm. so that one man can
perform the work Of many. No man can
be called n thorough farmer, who tries to
till more land than lie can properly man.
age; who takes more from the land than
is returned TO it in some form or other.
Mr.. PerhRm then ran rapidly over the
great questions and topics that arc now
being discussed so earnestly, in the agri-
cultural world. First, the great. and all
important question. embracing nearly all
of the others; How shall we get the
greatest crops, with the least expense
and at the same time keep up the fertility
of the soil?7 Then with regard 10 ma
uures-which pay best; growing crops,
foreign fertilizers, or home manufactured
msnur. deep or shallow plowing-Rota-
ton of Crops, &c. &c.
The address awakened lively discus
sion among the farmers present, upon
some OF the questions raised, and showed
great diversity Of opinion, upon many
points. The Committee on Subjects, pro-
posed the following question for discus
sion nj the next meeting: "ls it advisa-
Die to pillow in manure deep. or leave II

tending cordial invitation for all to unite
with them. adjourned. to meet at the En-
CINE House Hall, Saturday evening. Dec.
ith, at L. N.
This Club is destined to meet the want
long felt in the community. and it's pro-
iectors feel convinced that if the MEN,
beers will only attend the meetings. and
impart their experience, as we'll as listen
to that of others, vast amount OF good
will result from the Club. w.
