A Word to the Farmers Of the Ualted
Suites.

Word to the Farmers Of the Ualted
Siates.
There is prospect of terrible war In
Europe, involving the destruction of millions
Of dollars worth of subsistence which in peace
would be saved. At the same time wasting
drought in France has shortened her crops
one-half and reduced the price Of her live
stock to almost nothing, owing to the scarcity
of forage; and the same drought, more or less
disastrous in its effects, has been felt, and still
prevails, from the Baltic to the Black Sea.
From these facts it is apparent that there will
be an extraordinary demand all over Europe
for the next twelve months for our surplu
breadstufs and provisions of all descriptions. i.
We have had splendid wheat harvest, which
includes a good harvest Of rye, barley and
oats. Oay Indian corn crop. the most impor-
tant crop 3f the United States, Is now develop
ing itself, and the general promise is very
good We would say, however, to every far:
mer concerned, North and South, make and
save as much Of this crop az possible, for by
next winter the product of an acre in corn
may be worth more in cash than an acres
yield in cotton. At the same time, in order to
guard as far as possible against INSCRIPTIONS
spectators, the Agricultural Bureau at
Washington may render an important service
to the country in ascertaining the amount Of
our products this year in wheat, corn, pota-
toes, &C.. from reliable sources. All parties
concerned, and especially consumers, will
know better what to do in the work of harmonic
ing demand and supply in knowing upon what
we have to depend in the way Of a surplus OF
breadstuffs for expectation.

B SERIOUS ACCIDENT At PATERSON. An limo
cent but somewhat singular style of amuse-
ment which Jersey has adopted resulted in a
very serious accident OF Paterson yesterday.
This style Of amusement consists Of series
of burlesqie boat and tub races, the contest
ants pulling blindfolded in some instances, and
whenever chance occurs varying
the fun by upsetting any outsider
who ventures in their neighborhood in
boat. These games were going on at Lake
Dundee yesterday, and in order to see one of
the prominent men of Paterson upset crowd
of two hundred persons, mostly ladies and
children, rushed to the balcony overhanging
the water The balcony gave way and oil of
them were preciptated into the water, which
was, luckily, only foot or two deep. They
were all rescued but many of them were in
jured by the fall and the splinters, and one lit
tie boy will probably die of his injuries.

the manner in which Europe was divided ~
the allied Powers in 1916. This division Of
the Continent known as the treaty of Paris,
has since been broken up by the separation Of
Belgium from Holland, the establishment OF
the Italian monarchy and the virtual absorp

THE PARIS Prison OF ST. LAZARE. The
French Prison of st. Lazare, Paris, an institu-
ton which is used for the correction and
reformation of fallen women, is described by
one Of our special writer's in the French CAPT
tai. The communication appears in orr
columns to-day. Its contents convey very
sad picture of the social condition as it pre-
walls in Paris, tinted easingly, however, by
the relation of the generous, fervent and
unsefsh Christian efforts which are made for
the reclamation of it's victims. Our special
letter will attract the attention of the clergy
and lay humanitarians Of America. It sup

THERE WERE SEVERAL TRIALS before
Judge Barnard yesterday of alleged '.repeat-
ers' for fraudulent voting at the last elections.
One fellow pleaded guilty and was sentenced to
one year in the State Prison. It is extremely
refreshing to see an example being made of
these rascals. With few severer ones than
the one just made. and with the new uniform
Naturalization law in full force II will soon be

Our HAVANA LETTER speaks of the
increasing hostility evinced towards Captain
General de Rodas. His campaign in the
eastern part of the island has proven failure,
and the volunteers are greatly dissatisfied in
consequence. The Captain General, no doubt,
has done his best to crush the revolution, and
has failed W. question ven much # aar

however, goes for naught with class who

rather than by calm reasoning and thoughtful

OUR SUMMER TRAVELLERS TO EUROPE this
duced to one-half, or even as low as one-t third
of the number who went over for ''the grand
tower beginning at Paris, last summer. We
shall, perhaps, keep in the country ten or
fifteen millions of money which otherwise
would go to Europe to be squandered there.
So the old maxim will still apply, 1t is an ill

TIE Coal MoNoPoLIsTs have met with
another reverse. The eight hour strike in the
Scranton coal region was an entire failure.
On the day appointed for the turnout the men
were all found steadily at their work, and it is
thought that operations will be Immediately
resumed in the Schuylkill region. Every
attempt this season to force up the price of
coal by means of strikes has been unsuccess-
full, and consumers may rest satisfied that they
viii be able to secure their stock of fuel at
reasonable prices.

! GENERAL SHERIDAN is to be sent to Europe
by the President to watch the operations of the
contending armies. We do not think he is the
most suitable man for the service. He is
hardly scientific enough. Besides, lie will find
himself bothered to look on and observe opera
lions of this sort without taking hand him

TIKI RIGHT AND TUE LEFT BANK OF
River. As we shall have, for some time to
come, in detailing the warlks movements of
the French and Prussians, to speak frequently
Of the right and the left bank of the Rhine, the
Moselle, the Main, &C., and as the general
reader is apt to coniound the banks of river
with the movements of an army up or down
the stream, let it be understood that the right
bank of river is always the bank which is on
the right hand as you look down the stream,
and the left bank will never be placed on the
wrong side.

GUM aud Holland overrun. She was power
full party to the treaty of Vienna which
guaranteed the independence of the kingdom
of the Netherlands. Later, in 1881, she was
principal party to the division of the Neither
lands and the establishment of the little king
dom Of Belgium. Should the rights of
Belgium in any sense be trampled upon she
must draw the sword or lose her honor.
If her allies, because they are weak, are to be
left to their fate, she must abrogate her right
to rank with the great Powers. Besides this
there are other possibilities which could
scarcely fail 70 drag Great Britain ipto
the strife. She will aim at doing the carrying
trade of the world, aud in doing this she
must get into trouble with ono or other Of the
contending Powers. Great Britain and Russia
in the conflict and ON the same side, france
would find herself in most awkward position.
On herself alone she would be compelled to
lean. The only possible allies in such case
would be Italy and Spain. But Italy at heart
is opposed to France, and Spain is cold, if not
absolutely powerless.
The prospect is dark and perplexing. 1t is,
indeed, difficult to see the end. 1t is clear
that Germany is unit as against France and
that Napoleon will appeal to South Germany
in vain. 1t is clear that with the single excep-
ton of Denmark, which unfortunately bears
grudge against Prussia, France goes into this
war without the sympathy of the nations Of
the European Continent. But it is not clear
that a victory over Prussia would do either
France or Napoleon any good. Should France
come out of this struggle only second best,
what then would hinder the establishment of
the German empire, with the King of Prussia
at its head? What could save the Bonaparte
dynasty What would binder the Italians
from occupying Rome What would become
of tue Pope? Tben, again, Constantiuope.
But wherefore multiply questions Verify, the
situation is perilous. We see the beginning,
but we cannot see the end 1t is for us to be
grateful that We are happily ont Of the con-

But when the king laid hold upon the toad

one feared to touch il because it spat poison.
/ And they called the wise men Of the c0un-

But after three days the master Of the toad
came to the palace, and without saying who

is; both for wisd IN of speech aud power Of

Now when, after the lapse of many years.
he died, there was great grief among the poo

room, and the people were permitted to come
and look upon his face for the last time. And

And he did not weep as did the others but
he came and stood by the bier, and gazed up
on the dead king in silence. And after %
while he exclaimed, and said
"Oh, wonderful spectacle Aman, anlnot
