THE FARMERS FIGHT.

The anti-monopoly movement begun
among the farmers of Illinois, where
its special energy is expended in efforts
to bring the railroads to fair rates for
local travel and freight transportation,
has extended to Kansas, and before the
summer is over will have organized
direction in all the States of the North
west. There is no doubt, ifthose whom
Mr.. Disrcali styled the tferritorial de-
mocracy' of the United States act uni
teddy, they can revolutioniZe many
things. Their action will not be con-
fined to abuses in the railway system
of the country, but will extend to other
evils. The resolution adopted by the
Kansas Farmers Convention show the
proportions this movement will ulti-
mately assume. These resolutions
declare that National, State and local
taxes are excessive, and beyond tho
needs of economical administration;
that the tariff laws should be modified
so as.to admit lumber and salt free of
duty; that railroad freights and fares
should be regulated by law; that the
issue of municipal bonds is Il pcrnicious
system, calculated to bring the people
to bankruptcy and ruin; and that the
surrender Of the Nations currency to
banks is little less than legalizcd rob-

MISCEGENATIONIST AT THE INAU-
GURAL BALL.

The Washington correspondent OF the
Paterson Press, in sprightly letter,
gives the following gossip about the in
augural ball:
tsThere was the exceeding dark Rep
resentative in Congress from a far
Southern State, in irreproachable even
ing costume, and with him a quadroon
woman-his wife I heard. Her fea-
lures were regular and fine, her figure
graceful and we'll poised, her complex
ion scarcely darker than a Spaniard's;
yet we were told she had been q slave.
And, again, there appeared white
man Of pure Anglo-Saxon type, blonde
of hair and beard, escorting two colored
damsels, one of whom, report said, he
was engaged to marry. Stopping awhile
in one of the dressing-rooms we noted
the alacrity with which the sable dress
ing-maids turned after performing their
duties toward the fair beauties of the
ball to render q similar service to their
darker sisters, buttoning their delicate
kids, and adjusting their silken trains
with like care. Perhaps, if had been
native and to manor born, should
have felt spice Of the Indignation that
tinged my companions checks; but
being merely a Iooker on in VIENNA
I viewed the entire scene with amused
surprise. Still, leaving the graver pOlit-
zeal problems of the day for wiser heads
to solve, we must question at least the
good taste or eXpediency Of this ming
ling of races on terms of social equal

THE NEW AGRICULTURAL REpDRT.

We reproduce the suhjoincd WASH
ingtOn special to the st. Louis Globe:
Tho Department of Agriculture Is
daily in receipt of from five hundred
to u thousand letters from all parts of
the country asking for copies of the
agricultural report for 1872. Congress
adjourned without making proper
provision for its publication; and the
small number-l20O only-authorizcd
by the Senate ut its special session, and
and the $500 allowed to the heads of
the departments by the act of 1861,
will render it impossiable to distribute
as largely as was wished. The entire
report has long been in manuscript,
and, had its publication been authorize
cd at tho proper time, would have
been ready for distribution at the adj
journment ofthe Forty-second Congress.
