JOSEPH ARCH, THE LABoREEs CHAMPION.
MrFJoseph Arch, the leader OF the Eng
ilsh Agricultural Lsborers' movement, who
is expected to arrive here within a few
days, while speaking of America before
his departure, said that "If lac found there
a home Tor the agricultural laborers OF
England he should tell them so: but If he
found that farmers In America were men
- -at,s a t,,,,n -rIvs ~, --l.. h.
would advise them TO STAY in England. II
he found that America was the true home
OF the working man. where the son Of the
poor man could sit down by the children
OF the rich. and where they would have
full electoral power. he would stand o her
shores until he had drained the laboriny
scrfs out of England" Mr. Arch Is likely
to find that American farmers are the same
as English hrmers-they pay high or low
wage., according 10 the scarcity or ahpp.
dance OF !aborers. There are no ready
made homes here for Immigrants. but an
Industrious person can easily make one
and be independent. The son Of the poor
man cannot force his presence on the chill
dren Of the rich II the rich don't choose TO
associate with him, any more than in Eng
land. The agi icultural laborers Of Great
Britain are welcome, and there Is plenty
OF room for them whenever they choose to
come. The first issue Of "Ths .Scythe."

few days will contain the views and objects
of Mr.. Arch in fun.
PROSPECTS OF THE fALL TRADE.

owing to the enormous surface under Gull
tivation. but the weather within the next
two months may upset any calculation OF
the kind, woods although somewhat dull

likely to be caused by the state of the |

chiefly by the amonut OF imported manu-.
