is its business to get all the information it

we are not apt to show it to our oppo-

that we are not partners in this little game.

eW- The Canadian government has is
sued instructions to commanders of gun
boats and other vessels employed in pro-
tecting Canadian fisheries, in which they
are notified to prevent any American yes
sells from fishing within three miles from
the coast, and within line drawn from
headland to headland Of any bay or creek
less than ten geographical miles across the
mouth. This matter of drawing a line
from headland to headland, and excluding
American vessels from the inside Of that is
what has been the point at issue between
our government and that Of Great Britain.
In these instructions it viii be seen that
the Canadian authorities have restricted
the claims to bays less than ten miles
across, though they claim not to have
yielded anything from the former interpre-
tation of the question. 1t remains to be
seen how our government will receive
these instructions. They claim more than
our government has ever admitted.

Gold. and Grain.
sense.

The war that has just commenced be-
tween France and Prussia has already had
its effect upon the gold market, and also
upon the grain market.
This European war is viewed by the
Americans in very much the same light as
boys view a pond well filled with frogs
it is very good for us to have sport with,
but is very prejudicial to their interests.
War was declared by France against
Prussia on the 18th of July, and on the
10th gold ran up from 1.12 to 1.l65, and
on Monday, the 18th, to 1929.
This had its effect upon the grain mar
ket, and the traffic in wheat began at once
to be active, and the price to advance. Il
the war continues the very hi hest prices
may be expected for the present crop O.
grain, especially for wheat and corn.
If the farmers do but mark the gold
market, and the causes from which it rises
and falls, they will have a sure index tC
the prospect Of the prices of grain.

The Democratic Party.

The:GermantOwn, Pa, Telegraph,a paper
of strong Radical tendencies, in an article
which speaks of the claims of the two great
parties of the country on the people, says:
To the Democrats we owe the acquisition
of Texas, New Mexico, Utah, Arizona, Cali
fornia, and Nevada, and the final settlement
of the Oregon dispute, and this alone, not
withstanding all the errors of the party,
entitle it to respect and continual support
1t also stood up firmly for religious liberty
in an era when it was not popular to do so,
and when sectarian bigotry had got into
politics and was sweeping the country like
tornado. 1t also stood resolutely by the
ri. hts of naturalized citizens under great
dIscOuragements These are practical ser
vices that will entitle the party to respect.
Whereupon the Doylestown Pa Demo
cr0t comments as follows: This is frank
and manly admission by practical adVer
sary. He might have cited many other
great deeds of the Democratic party, but
these are enough to give it a strong hold on
the affections and support of the people
From 1901 to 1861, space of sixty years,
with the exception of an interval of few
years, the Democratic party controlled the
destinies of the country, and moulded the
workings of our Institute The history
of the country is the history of the party.
The second war for independence, that of
l8I2-15, was a Democratic measure which
secured to American commerce the freedom
of the seas The Telegraph forgets to tell
its readers that the Democratic party has
always been as strong an advocate of civil,
as we'll as religious liberty, and on this
point it has never undergone, and cannot
undergo, change. Constitutional govern
ment is cherished by our grand old party
as the apple of its eye, and love for it will
never be relinquished: For this reason the
Democratic party opposed, with great una
nimity, the so called " reconstruction poll
cY of the Radicals. It was destructive of
every principle of free government, and
reared military despotism on the ruins of
civil liberty. The day is not very distant
when the Radical policy toward the South
will be execrated by all men and all parties
and no statesman or politician will be found
to do it reverence.

THE BOYS WHO WANT TO BE
CLERKS.

q. B. Northrop, one of the distinguished
contributors to the Hearth and Home, is the
author of the following excellent article:

What should Planters do with
Their cotton.

Under this head the Columbus Enquirer
says
An extensive planter suggests to US a
plan whereby he thinks much of the loss
that will result from throwing large cotton
crop upon the market next winter may be
avoided. He proposes that all planters, who
are not forced to sell the whole of their
crops to meet engagements and current ex-
penses, should sell only one half, and keep
the balance in the seed on their own premi.
ses. His objection to ginning aud baling
the cotton to be retained, is not only the
present high price of bagging, but the fact
(Which he has ascertained by actual ex-
perience,) that cotton will improve in both
quality and weight when kept unginned,
but will lose in both when packed. He
tells of a considerable quantity bought in
the seed during our late war, which was
suffered to remain unginned several years.
When finally ginned it was found that less
than three pounds in the seed yielded a
pound of lint, and the lint was of a rich
slightly yellow cclOr, and very fine in ap-
pearanee This was no doubt due to the
absorption by the lint ofsome of the oil in
the seed-the seed by this process. being
rendered lighter and the lint heavier.
By the proposed plan the expenses of
storing for an indefinite time may be avoided
and planters may at the same time defeat
the schemes of spectators who hope to
make large crop, the war, ETC., pretexts
for swindling the producer out of the real
value of his staple The m istake of plant
ing large crops of grain this year may be
corrected by holding over, in this way, q
cotton crop, and paying special attention to
provision crops next year. Ifthree millions
and a half or four millions of bales should
be produced this year, hold over a million'or
a million and half of bales of it in the seed
and next year make only two and half or
three millions of bales By this means the
supply may be adjusted to the demand, and
cotton planters may do much to protect
their great interest from the leeches that
have attached themselves to it. and whose
greed is almost as destructive asthe rayages
of the boil worm.
The suggestion seems to US to be one es-
PeciaIiy deserving the attention of the whole
country, and we cheerfully comply with
request of our planting friends by asking
our exchanges to assist in bringing it to their
notice
The gentleman proposing this plan has
ascertained, Oh inquiry, that there will be
no difficulty in Obtaing insurance upon cot
ton kept unginncd on the plantation.

PRINTERS AND RELIGION.

The chaplain of the New Hampshire PEN
itentiary says:
g have the happiness to number among
my friends many printers; but though it
may seem to imply lack of ability on the
part of the minister, OF the want of the
qualities, never succeeded well with that
class. For the nine years of my come ction
with the penitentiary, with all the induce
me nts offered, not one of that trade has con-
nected himself with my congregation; and
[ do not think man could be found of all
who tenanted our prison, who could set
column of type. leave the reader to make
his comments, only remarking that this can
not be accidental, nor can the explanation
be that the employment keeps me ignorant
of the prevailing vices and immoralities
nor yet that young printers are removed
from the large masses where corruption en-
genders and spreads. In all these respects
this class is exposed. 1t is evident that the
employment has an eleyating tendency, and
is favorable to intellectual and moral i'm
provemenE"

NOT PARTED.

They are not parted. though their feet

And though they never more may meet

Itmatters aOs thsugh realms divide,
ThOngh boundless seas between them roll:
For still defying wind and tide,
Heart yearns to heart, and soul TO soul
They are not parted-only those
Are parted whom ne love unites
Their absence breaks not our reboss
Who have no share in our delights;
They may be by eur side, and still
As far from US as pole from pole,
Who lack the sYnpAthetie thrill
Ofheart TO heart and soul to soul.
