The Enquirer says: The fine weather of the
last two or three weeks has enabled our farm
ers to start their farming operations at a much
earlier period than usual great deal of
ground has been brokon up already, and un-
less we have very bad spell Of weather, the
crops Of 1869 will be started under very favor
able AUSPICES. There is every prospect Of an
early spring, and our people seem to be doing
all in their power to take advantage of it,
There is, however, lack OF field-hands, nearly
every man who carries on anything like an
extensive farm being ready to employ one or
two more.
The following is the result Of the canvass of

GERMAN EMIGRATION.
Leading Features OF the New Trea

Leading Features OF the New Treaty.
1t is understood that the project Of con-
vention between the United States and the
North German Union, for the better protection
Of emigrants to the United States, is under
consideration by Baron Gerolt and certain par
ties in New York and Washington. The plan
Of a treaty having this in view has already
been prepared both at the Treasury Depart
ment and the State Department-that from
the latter Office modifying several of the pro-
visions contained in the former. AS yet there
has been no definite action with respect to
either.
The substance OF the introduction of the
project is that the United States Of America
and the King of Prussia, in the name OF the
German Union, deem it important, both in the
interest OF humanity and sound public policy,
TO provide greater protection to emigrants
from North Germany to the United States, in
has heretofore been enjoyed by them; and had
resolved to appoint @ convention for that pt1r-
pose. Following this is o number of articles
relative to the carriage OF passengers on ves-
one OF the requistions being that the master
OF the vessel shall, before sailing post CON
spicuousiy III the various ooznpaI tments OF the
vessel certain regulations mentioned in an i,,-
I'SN-N~A<~ PAcpSSSSt
as may be deemed necessary, in the English,
French and German languages. In the event
OF the provisions not being complied with by o
citizen either Of the United States or North
Germany. involving amenabiIity to the penal
ties prescribed, the case shall be referred to a
board doRcommisgIonerS OF consisting of four meul-
bsrs, two appointed by the United STATES and
two by the North German Government, or tho
Minister OF the latter In the United States. II
the case be adiudicated here, or by the United
States Minister in Berlin, il the case is to be
adjudicated there. These commissioners are
invested with the'usual privileges Of cornnis-
s,oners @ IN cases requiring decisions Of q nation
al character, and their action, where they
agree, Is to be final. Whatever fines are COT
iected for violations Of the treaty stipulations
IN the United States are to be paid into the
treasury aud held for paying expenses OF the
commissioners. 1t IL also provided that the
master OF such passenger vessels bringing
passengers to the United States shall Y,ay ID
that Governments one dollar for every statute
adult brought on board such vessel TO the
United EtateS. and As much OF the amount re-
oeived as is necessary is to be held for carry
ing out the treaty stipulations.

"JVHAT ROYALTY COSTS"
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
The Royal family and Queen are no expense
to Great Britain. George the Third Inherited,
as Tom, Dick or Harry might have done, cer-
tain lands. These estates were vested in the
Grown Land Commissioners, in consideration
Of Parliament providing the necessary supply
for the Grown and Royal family. In 1867, the
proceeds received by the Commissioners ex-
ceeded the amounts paid to the Queen and
Royal family by the pretty little sum of s76, 600.
So the Queen lost in that year $3.50, 900 by her
grandfathers arrangement, and the country
made that profit on the transaction. Thus
the Grown OF England costs $780, 900 year
less Atam nothing, or about half million less
than General Grant will cost when he gets
100000 year. JOHN BULL.
