Notwithstanding. tho extreme scarcity OF
hands in this region, the harvest work has, pro
crossed rapidly In this neigbborhood, Miss
Watson, delicate young lady OF sixteen sum
lners, with span of horses, has cut twenty I'VE
acres of wheat and forty acres OF grass, and
will cut as. many acres OF oats In V'ry lew
days, the present week. 1t is great triumph
for human skill.in the perfection OF labor saw
ing implements. At this date Miss Watson
can cut more lodged and tangled wheat with
her span of horses and reaper, 10 one day, than
your correspondent could have done 10 ten
DAYS, torly..years ago with the sickle, anu VINO
was then in the yigor of youth, and among tne
swiitest to WELD that old time implement.
The goodness of God is manifest 10 the pro,
uress of improvements. to lessen labor and toll
of the farmer; without labor saving implements
the present crops could not be garnered.
RENTEs. Many of our readers may not have
a fair understanding OF the word "rentes, y
which occurs so constantly just now in our for
eign dispatches, and whose rise and fall seem
to constitute the financial barometer of Paris.
They arc the funded debt of France not, how
ever, in the form OF bonds, but simply loans
from the people. These loans are entered to
the credit of the lenders on the government
lcdgers and draw specified rate of interest.
The holders of the debt are called ''renters. !"
and the fluctuations in its value denote popular
uistrust or confidence in the government.
