The soil of Massachusetts, is by no means
so productive as in many other States in
the Union, yet her agricultural interests
are in far more prosperous condition
than the average of States. The horses of
Massachusetts, are of greater average value
than any other State. The same may be
said of milch COWS. Sheep are worth 81. 20
per head more than the average value in
the whole country. Massachusetts, pays
higher wages for farm labor than any other
State. While farm laborers in Illinois re-
ceive S2S.54 per month, and in Iowa s2s.
in Massachusetts, they receive $50 .S4.
What is the secret of the success which at
tends the Massachusetts farmers? tbs the
immense capital invested in manufactures
in the State. Wherever there is large
manufacturing population, every other in
terest is stimulated, and especially the
agricultural.

The pure and undefilcd Bourbon Demo.
cracy of Kentucky have discovered that
Col. Waterson, the editor-in-chief of the
Louisville C0uricr-Jeurpal, is a carpet
Dagger from Tennessee, and that the pure
blood of Kentucky chiyalry is not in him.
They are, therefore, determined to estab-
lish a new organ. 1t is to be called the
Ledger, and is to be controlled and edited
by the unwashed-the Resolutioncrs OF
'9S and the dead issuers. Building up a
newspaper is not the easiest work inn
aginable, as these new schemers will find
out. Their avOwed object is to break down
the COurier-JoarndL, but We should not be
surprised to see them sink several times
ten thousand before they do it. The real
objection to Waterson is, that he is a car
pet-bagger, and not sufficiently identified
with the interests of Kentucky. We ven
ture to say if these men trace back their
family two generations, they We're Yam
KEGS. The most violent anti-carpet-bag
men we know have got Yankee blood in
their veins.

THE SCHOOL TAX ELECTION.

We publish communication this morn
ing frem Cleveland, which shows what is
being done, and what has been done. for
the cause of education in Bradley county.
With Knox, we have now reports from
four counties that have voted to be taxed
for school purposes. All this is very en-
couraging, and should induce all the friends
of education to press the good work all
along the line. We must be on duty here
inf Knoxville. 1t is true that even the OPP
ponents of education were compelled to
espouse the good cause before the closing
day of our municipal canvass but they
did this because they were forced to do it,
and not because their convictions changed.
We must, therefore, not be lulled to sleep
by their outward professions, for they are
deceitful and the truth is not in them.
The fact is, the opponents of general edu-
ton are active in our midst, and rcsor ting
to every means to defeat the cause. They
are going about sowing the seeds of preju-
dice; trying to array one class against an
other, and arouse the hatred of one race
against the other; relying upon ignorance
and passion to aid them. They must be
watched and their efforts overcome. The
friends of public schools must organize in
every ward, and see that every voter un-
derstands the issue and votes his senti-
ments. Let us have public addresses and
a thorough canvass of the city. Let this
work begin to-day, and be pressed until
\ 4 l.. 4 \
of, and we have no time TO lose.

AN HONEST DEMOCRATS OPINION

The GAINESVILLE Tobacco Leaf, a pro-
nounced and leading Democratic paper in
Middle Tennessee, in noticing the bill
now pending before the Legislature for the
sale of delinquent railroads, thus gives its
views of the immaculate body:
The wise lawgiyers at Nashville, with their
usual foresight and prudence, have passed a
measure through for the unconditional sale of
all the nOn-interest paying railroads in the
State, with an indecent haste and an utter disre-
gard for the interests of the State or the will of
the people, which would disgrace carpet-bag
Legislature. Their reckless disregard for their
own reputation as Legislators is the legitimate re-
suit of total lack of all reputation of any kind
to lose The people are not surprised; indeed
they expected nothing else if they deigned to
bestow a thought on the carcass which is exhal-
ing itself on the air, and but for its vile odor all
unknown. No one cares to abuse it or its acts
One would as soon be caught denouncing the
carcass Of dead dog for being unable to move
itself out CT the way as this thing which is held
firmly bound by the cohesive power of per diem
to sit out its last day of grace
We do not mean to say there are not good
men in the Legislature, and perhaps few sup
ported this bill through mistaken honest mo-
tves. But the few men of brains and honesty
III the Legislature are sadly obscured by the
preponderatlng element of asinine stupidity and
corruption.
They have comparatively short lease of
power. Let us gratefully thank Providence,
when they pull up their stakes, if there's one
of them who can raise stake and quietly steal
away-according to their Unsatisfactory man
Of them to his own home, to ornament the bar
rooms of country towns, and tell Of their ex-
ploits in the State capital, and be pointed out
by the gaping loafers who were never in the
Legislature admirers-saying: There
goes one who belonged TO the Legislature of
Tennessee of 1S69-10."

Tuesday was a gala day in Cleveland. The
Odd Fellows, of Canada, in large numbers
came over to visit their American brethren.
They were well received, and heartily well
coined, on Monday, and on Tuesday grand
parade occurred, in which the Lodges OF
Cleveland, and numerous visiting brethren
from different parts of the State, participated.
1t was a grand time with the fraternity, end
ing in a promenade ball and concert In the
evening.
Among the large cattle raisers Of Texas are
John Hittson, who has $4,000 head Of cattle;
VIM. Hitison, who has 5000; Geo. Rivers,
G,0Oo; Chns. Rivers, 10000, Jes. Brown, l5,-
600: G. J. johnson, 5000; Rob't Sloan, $4,000;
Coguins q Parks 10000 NJ Childers, 10000;
and J. Chisholm, $4,000. The entire number
of cattle owned in Texas is nearly 100000
while New York State, with her 100000 of
population, eight times greater than that Of
Texas, has less than 10000 head of cattle.
The latest on dit is that woman named
Philbern, living in indianapolis, obtained such
influence over George Stats, man of sixty
five, and janitor of the Odd Fellows Hall, that
he secreted her in an adjoining room and per-
mitted her to see three or five limitations, and
secure the work of three degrees. 1t is also said
he conferred upon her three degrees ofLasonry.
The way it all came out was, the janitor re-
fused to supply her with all the money she
could dispose of, and SO ne has come to grief
Alasl poor Yorick.
A French physician has investigated the
effect of smoking on thirty-eight boys,
between the ages Of nine and fifteen, who were
addicted to the habit Twenty seven present
ed distinct symptoms of nicotine position. In
twenty two there were serious disorders Of
the circulation, indicating dullness of intel
lect and a marked appetite for strong drikns;
in three there was heart affection, in eight de-
cided deterioration of blood; ten had disturb
ed sleep, and four had liberation of the mucous
membrance of the mouth.
The celebration Of the Fourth at Salt Lake
CITY came near being the occasion an armed
conflict between the Mormon militia and the
United States troops. The Governor of Utah
had issued proclamation forbiding the
"Nauyoo Legion" or polygamist militia organ
ization, from appearing armed in the Mormon
parade of the day Mr.. Wells, Mayor of Salt
Lake City, and LieutenanS-General of the
"Nauvoo Legion, backed, of course, by Brig
ham Young and the high dignitaries of the
Mormon Church, showed fight, and to the last
moment insisted on his right to bring out his
militia under arms for the celebration Of the
National Independence. The acting Govern
or, however, was ilnmovable, and prepared to
resist by force, if necessary, the infraction of
the Governors order. Finally, at a special
meeting of the Mormon Council, it was deter
mined to respect the authority Of the United
States, and the militia appeared for the most
part ununiformed, and all unarmed, as private
citizens in the procession. The event is signi-
fcant only as a vindication of the authority of
General Government over the DEGREES of Brig
ham Young and his Elders.

AMONG the special police sworn in
on the occasion of the New York
riots, were two platoons of newspa-
per reporters. That shows the en-
terprise of the Bohemians, and their
good sense. A report of the doings
they must have. and no place so safe
for their precious bodies, or so IA
vorable for seeing what was going
on, as in the ranks of the police.
One reporter was-caught melting the

thing would be a failure, and he did
what he could to make a sensation
out of it.

The Latest from Corea.

The fuller details of the fighting in Corea,
which have arrived during the past few days,
do not essentially change the impressions CIV
en- by the earlier accounts of the affair. 1t
appears that Minister Low, with his diplomat
ic suite, were present, and played most i'm
portant part in the affair, Commodore Rogers
simply doing the fighting after diplomacy was
at an end. Minister Low made a strenuous
effort to treat with the Corean government and
get the people there on the high road to a bet
Ter civilization, but with genuine Mongolian
iuoredulity they listened to his Interpreters
but would not Join in any movement toward
a treaty. While Mr.. Low and his Interpreters
were parleying the navy men In gigs and Ian
ches were prying along the coast, sounding the
inlets, buoying the reefs and sunken rocks, and
making the most of the truce. Finally, in
their zeal for a correct chart, they got too far
up one of the rivers, and the Coreans, who
had been watching them with increasing sus-
picion, blazed into them with their cannon
This was war all in minute, and it only re-
manned for the feet to give the barbarians
thrashing, which it at once proceeded to do.
Thanks to the dash and bravery Of the sail
ors, the first attack was surprise and COM
plete success, and the prospects are that the
Corean monarch, alarmed by the prowess Of his
enemies, will be in mood to make fair promi-
ses Had this first attack of Admiral Rogers
been repulsed, this nation would have been
in for a difficult costly war of indefinite length
All things considered, we may regard our
government fortunate to have COTTON out OF so
delicate a position so easily. Mr.. Low proba-
sees by this time that this matter of treating
the Coreans of the sweets of American civili-
zation is a thing that requires more caution
than he supposed.

FROM a Southern paper we clip
the following little anecdote, which
seems to be the parable of the "new
departure :"
A North Carolina negro, who had been a
wandering idiot from q blow received on the
skull while servant In the Confederate army,
was the other DAY subjected to difficult ope-
ration at the hands Of a sktllful surgeon. His
inst gleam Of intelligence after the result Of
the operation was as be opened his eyes and
SAID: I'VE was done gone fo' at Manassas,
yesterday. Wha' Is we today"
Could anything more delicately or
graphically picture the condition Of
the Democratic party?
