This market has not been so active as pre-
vi0us weeks OF the season. The weather has
been of such q character the past two weeks
as TO make outdoor work disagreeabie, and in
consequence the demand has been light, som
parative; still manufactures have been con-
stantly at work. Receipts of certain classes
of lumber have been light and stocks have
run low. There is an active demand for
''strips" and dry lumber, especially flooring.
which would bring full prices.

Thn Agricnltural Rureau.

The report Of the Department OF Ag-
riealture for October says the influence
OF aronth and Of the unusually low tenn
perature of September has been unfa-
vorable rs the ipening OF fruits, and 10
the maturing Of corn and other crops.
No general or serious damage has re
suited to corn, large portion of the
crcp being well advanced by the high
temperature of August before frost
Appeared. The drouth of Midsummer
has been almost unhroken in the West
up to the time Of these returns, inter
fdKmg greatly with the seeding of grain,
and with the termination and growth of
what the farmers have been able 10
Rant.
THE present condition or corn, ex.
pressed as q percentage, 100 represent
ing good crop, is as follows: About
an average in New Hampshire of Ill ;
in Massachusetts, of 103; in Rhode
Island of l0l in Connecticut of l05 ;

The product of wheat, as calculated
from county estimates, appears TO be

The product of oats VIII be about as

whole, the quality of barley may be said
10 be fully medium, and the quantity
very nearly an average The buckwhent
crop is comparatively a poor one, the
average condition being low in nearly

These societies have become 30 bc mn
important feature In the labor reform
movements there, and are closely iden-
titled with the improved industrial life
of the kingdom. In spite OF arisio-
cratic oppoaition, middle class Is con-
atitnted thereby which win be the
strength, perhaps the salvation OF The
nation. Tho value OF the dwellings
which, through these societies, have be-
como the property of workingnen, ~
estimated al VI, 900, ,OO0, 900. A great
many OF these societies are called Bow
kelt societies, from Dr. Bowkelt, who
originated them. The fundamental
principle Is that, by certain arrange
ment men uniting together can realize
IN the first instance the same amount OF
interest for their own saving that they
are accustomed to pay for tho use OF
other peoples money; next, that they
can practically obtain one-fOuFth more
than that rate of interest, and next. that
the rate Of interest In compound interest.
The result In, that while ordinary men,
out Of their savings can secure very III
ile indeed, throughout their whole life
time, il they are poor. yet ~ those small
earnings accumulate at high rate OF
compound interest, Il Ia sufficient ALSO
lniely 10 einancipate any Of them, or all
Of them, from poverty. In BirmihR-
ham alone i3, 600 houses belong 10 the
workingmen through this agency, and
there are streets more than n mile long
Whereon every house is the property OF
the working classes. The society does
not build houses, but lends the money
30 member 10 build. The streets are
all drained, and every man is bound 10
drain into the main sewer. The society
advances on the certificate Of the sur
yeyor as the work proceeds, always TAX
ing care not TO advance too much. III d
man goes to u sale and buys by auction,
the surveyor goes with him by order Of
the committee. and charge Is paid If
he buys the property bnt IL he gives
more for IL than the surveyor has valued
il at, he must find the surplus himself.
These Birmingham societies also serve
as banks Of deposit A servant girl can
put away EJ0, draw thereon ten ahillings
year, aud at a months notice get back
every cent with interest mp 10 the time
the notice was given. A great love for
Freeholds exists in birmingham. and
thousands OF working men possess them.
The great object Of the land society is
10 buy large estate F; 30 buy land whole
sale, and sell il 10 the members retail at
the wholesale price. Thus, the society
gave lately f39, 900 for one estate, and
divided il, after draining il. into nearly

Cape Cod Mackerel Fishing.

A Cape Cod correspondent of the Bos-
ton Hdioimda and Reflector writes Of
Maekerel fishing as follows -
The lines, of which each man mAnaC-
eS two, are nll thrown from the starboard
side of the vessel, this being, perhaps,
because the fishermen of Galiiee once
met with remarkable success when they
east the net on the right side Of tlo
ship" In regard 10 the time Of fishing,
we are at the mercy Of the capricioiB
mackorel themselves. Sometimes they
come promptly alongside and remnin
there for several hours, while again we
hear many times in n day the prepara-
tory "heave TO-, but not followed by
the more quickly spoken " fish, no F"
and the exciting drumming in the emp
~ barrels Of the newly-teken fish. But
when they bite rapidly, the sport is live
ly enough, and each man has 10 look
well to his lines. We three " "grcenies ="
stood side by side, and sometimes when
the lively mnckerel on our hooks would
dart about like n weaver's shuttle, ii
would result in all six OF our lines being
drawn in by one OF the party in state
Of ENHANCEMENT very trying 70 ones pa
hence. This the old salt very appro-
priately denominates quilting" One
drew in fish and was about to strike
him Off into my barrel when / found
that both my neighbour lines were
wound securely around the tail OF the
fish, which caused q strong tendency
towards the next barrel. Between us
both the poor mackerel had n hard time
Of il. for it was not until we cut off his
tail that my friends lines would give up
their hold upon him. Such vexations
the experienced fisherman avoids.

The complaint in this suit for restitution

is in addition 60 n similar action already
brought against him by Mr.. O'Gorman,

facts which arr the result of the examin-
alton Of a teller OF the Broadway Bank in
regard 10 Mr.. Twecd's bank account.

PoRk. Pork has risen 8 cents per
pound, so the markets say; and again
the question comes up favorably before
the farmer Of feeding his corn TO his
hogs, and calculating how much money
he can make. A Missouri farmer de.
termined tO try for himself practically
whether il would pay 10 buy hogs and
feed them corn bought In February.
Seven hogs, averaging 1873 pounds, or
93l in ali--worth cents per pound, or
S46.55, other expenses connected with
purchase being S6-cost S52.55. He fed
them corn for " days. At the end
OF that time they weighed LOO pounds,
or q gain Of 100 pounds-Gn average OF
10pounds per day. They sold for S97. :
75, or n profit over cost price of S45. 90.
The corn fed during that time was so
bushels, or 40 cents more than the corn
had previously been worth. The corn
crop ,1f the West is now the most abun-
dant known IN ten years, and large guam
titles viii be at price of not over %
cents per bushel. This is so cheap that
il Will tempt farmers everywhere to feed
IL TO their animals and convert il into
beef or pork. AT this price any one can
double their money very easily.
