DECAY OF OUR CoN,rFPcp

DECAY OF OUR COMMERCE.
Twenty years ago the United
States carried on a large and
profitable COMMERCIAL intercourse
with Canada and Nova Scotia
What it has dwindled to und r
Radica disagreement may be
inferred from the fact officially an.
nounced that, during 1871, ouly
four vessels flying American eel.
ors entered the harbor of Montreal
from the sea, and the same mum.
Der went TO Quebec. Yet, in 1871
800 British vessels arrived AT
Montreal, and 6S1 at Quebec.
while even Norway is credited
119 arrivals at the latter port
Nova Scotia is almost as bad rs

heavy demand exists there fnr

A subscriber, a few days
since, says the Tenn. Agricult-
urist handed us the following
c0nundrum, and asked IFS sOlu-
ton. We are free to confess
our inability to answer, and
hand it to orr readers, with the
hope that some of them may
find its solution. He says:
If a man is too poor to pay
for a newspaper, how many
dogs can he afford to keep"
One of the Rural South
Lands Subscribers answers that
the number of dogs kept by
such farmers is dependent up
on the number of sheep kept
by his neigbbors.

Docs VS.. SHEEP.-The an
nual destruction of sheep by
dogs is immense. Official re-
ports show in Ohio an annual
loss of S3,000,000 in sheep kill
ed by dogs, and 100000 in
other iniuries--a loss equiva-
lent to 100000 pounds OF
wool.
In two years-frOm 1868 TO
1S70-Illinois sank from the
sixth to the ninth in rank
among the States. in the num-
Der and value Of her sheep; and
this great falling off is attrib-
uted to proportionate increase
in the number of dogs. and the
lack of proper legislation to
prevent their ravages among
sheep.
In NJ lryland the returns
from five counties report over
LOO sheep killed by dogs in
one year.
In Missouri the number of
dogs exceeds the number OF
sheep; and fthe value of food
consumed by dogs was fed tn
sheep, they would probably
clothe every person in the
State, and render us independ-
ent OF foreign wool.

KIND WORDS.--The bearing.
Of the Southern people, as a
whole, under all that they have
been forced, at the point of the
bayonet, and in other ways
hardly less tyrannous,, to un-
dergo, has been such as to com,
mand the respect and admira-
ton of all candid and unpreju-
diced men. Theirs has been
no common lot, their sufferings
no common suferings, nor is
what they have lost to be meas
ured by any common standard.
Amid it all they are brave,
stouthearted, courageous; not
sullen nor desparing, through
greatly tempted to diSpair; but
looking forward, through pres.
ent darkness and ever present
calamitieS, to the dawn of a
better day. Their patience,
their strength, their good cheer
have not been in vain. The
day is breaking, and this is due
in great measure to their tenn
peratenesS, wisdom, forbear-
ance under trying circumstan-
ceS. 1t cannot but be believed
and hoped that the exercise of
these will continue to the end.
The recent past to the Southern
people is a dreary waste. The
opening future is full ofprom-
Use to them as an integral part
of the American people. And
the time is rot far distant
when, relieved Of the present
embarrassment that impede
their progress and bear them
down, they will illustrate, for
the encouragement OF other
nations and other times, how
true it is
That men may rise ON stepping stones
Of their dead selves 10 higher things.

Sometime ago, Seth w. Payne,
editor of the Utica On. " bee,
was condemned to hard labor
in the Penitentiary for publish
ing a libel upon Judge Doolit-
tie. The Judge was charged
with receiving brides to hasten
a trial before him. Payne's
wife now runs the Bee, and she
seems determined to make il
lively for her husbands prose
cutors. Her husband, she says,
will resume his editorial work
on the expiration of his SEN
tence, and will be as fearless as
heretofore. Meantime, she de-
tends the rights of the press,
and calls upon all lovers of fair
play and free discussion to sus-
tain her paper.

RURAL SPoRTs.-We are in
debted to Mr.. j. c. Head go if
our proxy didn't turn up for
s pressing invitation to be
present yesterday and partici-
pate with the boys in the very
pleasant and healthy exercise
of removing the stumps and
filing up the holes in the lake
road. We have no doubt that
every one enjoyed himself, if
the rain did not interfere too
much, but as we are somewhat
delicately constituted, we fear
ed that such outdoor pastime
would not agree with US, hence
our absence.

We know one planter who
made enough corn last year to do
him this; and he says that il will
save an expenditure of two thor
sand five hundred dollars. From
all the information we can gain,
this parish will pay out this year
for corn not cent less than ole
hundred thousand dollars, and an
enormous sum for meat. A large
quantity of oats is also imported,
and there is a heavy expense
incurred by some for Western hay
while it can be had here without
limit just for the labor of saving
1t. 1t may be truthfulk said
that the mass of the agricultural
population here do not raise at
home the means OF their own sup
Sistence any more than mechanics
and other classes who have Moth
ing to do directly with tilling the
soil.
