Greeley on Farming.

Horace Greeley Indignantly de.
nounces the following statement, but
still it sounds something like the old
veteran: "A Missouri farmer wrote
10 Horace Greeley to know if silk
culture could be made profitable in
Missouri. The veteran agriculturist
of the Tribune thought it could. He
said it would necessitate some trouble
and expense to import the silk-bear-
ing sheep from the mountainous re-
gions of Central Asia, but thought
they could be easily dOmesticated in
Missouri. He said he presumed the
rearing of the silk-bearing sheep
would become such an important
branch of agricultural industry in
Missouri in five years, that the State
would give 100, 600 majority in favor
Of protective tariff, and quadruple
the present circulation of the 1rs.
bHRe.
1.-The same farmer also inquired as
to the probable profit of raising broom
corn in this State. Mr.. Greeley felt
assured that it would he profitable,
but advised his correspondent to raise
the plain handled variety of brooms,
inasmuch as they were more hardy
variety than those with red and blue
rings around the handles"

The Commissioners Safe.

Positive information is finally re-
ceived of tile safe arrival of the Ten
nessee. The San Domingo cores
pendent of the n. Y. Tribune, gives
the following account of the trip OF
the steamer Tennessee, for whose
safety 81 many fears have been en-
tertained:
1--WE had charming weather for the
first two days out, cold indeed, but
bright and clear, with fresh and ia
voring winds aud every prospect of a
pleasant voyage; but toward the even
ing of the second day, in the rough
latitude of Hatteras, our troubles be-
gan, and from that time until we
neared oar destination we experience
ed abundant discomfort and many
stormy seas, though without any
special severe test of the seagoing
qualities of the frigate. Using gen.
orally both steam aud sails, We have
made moderately quick voyage, but
the behavior of the vessel under
steam is far from satisfactory, and
her machinery is found to be full OF
serious defects. AS a sailer, however,
the ship is pronounced faultless."

''The Little Church Around the Cor

Mr.. Holland, a veteran actor and
highly respected man, died recently,

Iowa NEWSPAPERS Among the
many improvements which have
taken place in Iowa during the past
decade none have been more marked
in tone and character, than the inn
provements which have been going
on i'm the ranks of journalism
While railroads have been extended
from one section of the State to the
other, bringing the producer in close
connection with the most important
markets, and while new towns, viii
lagos and farms have been opened
up by the resistless tide OF emigrants
the newspapers of the State have
kept pace with the new order of
things and heralded in their col
umns the march of events. For
firmness, independence, ability and
conscientious devotion to the true
principles of journalism, the press of
Iowa is second to no other in the
Union. 1t has ever been found fore
most in advocating the principles
of liberty and equality to all men,
and has proved Il faithful mirror to
reflect the most important wantsand
interests demanded by the State at
large. Well maythe people of Iowa
feel proud of their newspapers.-Du-

THE GAZETTE.
DGDAR FALLS, FEBRUARY "a, 1874.
Ion. JnO. 4. Elliott.

Two weeks since, we referred to
charges, which had been made by
tome gf our exchanges, against Mr..
1siliutt. ex. Auditor OF State. They
were grave accusations, demanding
the earnest attention of every honest
voter IN Iowa; and were presented
90 con fidently that we could not al
low them to pass unnoticed. Not
having the evidence TO believe or dis.
prove them, we asked whether they
were true. While it was evident
that Mr., Elliott came out of the
office rich, did he obtain his money
honestly and without injury to the
state? We are gratiHed, for the
honor of our State and the good
name of one of Iowa's best public
men, that our inquiries haye met
with the result desired. ...
We are prepared to speak intelli-
gently i'm pronouncing them utterly
unwarranted aud without founda-
ton. Evidence has been given us so
satisfactory as to not only honorably
and Enthusiastically aequit him, but
also to show malicious intent on
the part Of his accusers.
We need mt enter into a detail of
the animus which prompted those
papers to falsely charge Mr.. Elliott
with corruption. Hall their accusa.
tons been founded upon facts, their
course would have been honest,
manly and proper; as it is, let them
meet the fall condemnation of their
malicious falsehoods. The Marshall
Times, whose editor bitterly assaulted
Mr.. Elliott ON the evidence of the
Council Bluffs Nonporjet and Iowa
City Republican,, comes down frank.
~ and acknowledges grave mis-
step in allowing himself to be SC
misled by the above papers, -.
The people of Iowa recognized in
Mr.. Elliott an efficient Auditor oil
state. His administration was
marked for its systematic manage
ment, and it is no, undue praise. t.
say that the present. condition of oui
State finances is largely due to hi.
active and efficient work. If he wa:
so fortunate as to accumulate money
iegitimately by his Office and ty
Rpeculations outside, it shows wis
dom OIL his part.
We understand that the charges
and uncalled for prosecutions, have
had the effect to place Mr.. Elliot
squarely on the track for Governor
II cannot have been the design of hi!
enemies. but thus il has resulted.

TIE census returns, as far as ex-
amined, disclose the fact that the
New England and Middle States are
likely soon to become i'm very truth
the homes of "small listed farmers"
"a name applied in dcrisionto all
that section years ago, by the "first
families" Of the aristocratic South. -
The census returns exhibit a decrease
In the number of live stock, i'm these
States, aud also large falling off In
the amount of production of staple
grains, in the past decade. The rea.
son of this decrease is stated to lie
that so far as these States are con-
cerncd business has ceased TO be pro-
1itaE lie, by reason of western compe-
tition. During the same period, it is
shown that there has been large
increase of all crops which are pro.
perly classed under the heads of
vegetable, farm or garden products.
