Who has not heard of MOoRE's RURAL
NEW Y oRKER, whose twenty years of
success and of usefulness have taught
our people the important facts of Agri-
culture and their kindred sciences, and
created departments for the naturalist,
the herdsman, the gardener, the dairy
man, and others. But this is not all.
The farmer has found it paper for his
family, full Of instruction and interest,
and giving varied information in litera-
ture and the arts. It's moral tone is of
the highest, and its domestic depart
ment such as the farmers wife finds
most useful. The issue of 1872 will ap-
pear in a more convenient form, both
for reading and binding, though it will
still be larger than Haypers Weekly.
The price, however, las will be seen by
the advertisement in another column,
is reduced to $3.50 per year, and only
$500 to clubs. This must still more
largely increase the popularity of q
journal already in advance of all others
in its sphere

CrOp PrOSDectS.

1t is now pretty certain that the crop
of wheat in England will be short. The
yield, estimated carefully, will amount
to 76, 100000 bushels against 104, 100000
in 1870, 96,0O0,0O0 in 1869, and 1922
100000 in 1868. This falling off, added
to the greatly reduced yield in France
consequent upon the war, will make the
importation of considerable supply an
absolute necessity. Spain, Hungary,
Russia, and parts of Germany, are
sources whence England has usually
drawn large portion of her foreign
supplies. In these counties, with the
exception of Russia, where the crop is
short, an average crop only has been
gathered. 1t is probable, therefore, that
increased supplies must be drawn from
America. Our crops have been good
with the single exception of spring
wheat, which in some sections has par
TALLY failed. Corn promises abundant
ly, and we hear of excessive crops in
some Western districts. The probabili-
ties are that no great fluctuations will
occur in prices. The demand from
England and France can be abundantly
met without causing any pressure on
our markets, and it is to be hoped that
the demand will be sufficient to enable
us to hold our own in the item of val

Professional PecuIiarities.

A Texas paper has been studying
what it calls professional peculiarities
or the tendency of man to identify
himself with his business, and gives
some interesting results. A New York
lawyer is instanced who, in his zeal to
use old Wellers pet legal weapon, an
abb, roared forth:
We can prove that at the very time
we were accused of perpetrating this
dreadful deed, we were serving out a
term of Imprisonment for larceny" In
Pelham" the same trait is noticed in
the fashionable tailor, who remarks to
his customer, eve are little narrow

while an equally fashionable bootmake1
says, " We have bunyon on the great

toe" The queerist fish, however, is the

and his collins happen to be little
short. % We will SETTLE" he cries,

A Queer Story from Switzerland,

The following paragraph appeared in
the editorial columns of the London
Daily Ne,0S:
People who go to Switzerland should
be careful about bathing in the Lake of
Wallenstadt. We are informed that
"a number of persons" excursionists,
probably, who venture to swim in the
water in the course of the season, never
came out of it, either dead or alive, and
the matter has at last been made the
subject of a serious investigation. AS
tending toward solution of the mys-
terry, we are told that several fishes of
an enormous size have recently been
observed gamboling in the loch, but
mo one can at present give any accu-
rate description Of these monsters of the
deep" 1t is to be hoped that the rela-
tlves of the unfortunate individuals who
have disappeared in the Lake of Wal
lenstadt will insist on a careful and
deliberate inquiry into the habits of the
new kind of shark that has evidently
developed the most uncomfortable pro-
pensities of Switzerland. Our coasts
and rivers are at any rate free from
fishes addicted to drowning bathers but
from a scientific point of view it would
be interesting to learn more of the ter
rible creatures.

A Young Americans Journey.

Among the first to avail of the pres
ent wonderful facilities for making a
voyage around the world was a Boston
gentleman, graduate of technology
cal institution, who accomplished his
tour and his eighteenth year at about
the same time. The Traveller thus notes
his journeyings: After visiting Ger
many during the FrancO-Prussian war,
Switzerland, Italy, England, etc, he left
London in January last, by steamer for
Alexandria. Before leaving for the
East, ne made brief visit to CONSTANT
nople, returning to Alexandria by way
of Athens. Starting from Alexandra
he visited the pyramids from Cairo,
taking steamer down the Red sea and
across the Arabian sea to Bombay;
thence by land across Hindostan to
Hyderabad and Calcutta, from whence
he went to the Himalayan mountains.
He afterward visited Madras, Ceylon,
Singapore, Hong Kong and Canton, and
thence to Yokohama, in Japan. From
Yokohama by steamer across the Pa
citic ocean TO San Francisco. Thence,
after visiting the 70 Semitic Valley,
Salt Lake City, the Mammoth Cave, and
Washington, he reached home the
present week, having occupied about
eight months in his circuit around the
earth, from Boston eastward back to
Boston again. About three hundred
miles of the route through Hindostan
were accomplished by a bullock team,
at the rate of two or three miles per
hour. In this country the travellers
were repeatedly attacked by robbers,
and it was only by the active application
of their revolvers that they were able to
protect themselves from robbery and
murder. At Yokohama our young
traveller was joined by another graduate
of our chronological College, who
crossed the Pacific ocean with him,
visited the 70 Semitic Valley, enjoyed a
short hunting excursion on the great
Laramie plains, in the territory of
Wyoming, and separated in Nebraska.
