THE GREATEST CROP OF THE WORLD.
A question widely discussedinvolvest the
relative value of the wheat, cotton, tea,
and hay crops of the world. Which of
these products employ the greatest
amount of the worlds capital 1t is
said that hay leads the rest, and the
items that enter into the account as
stated are somewhat startling, and will
make oranges hair stand on end. Cot
ton and tea are local crops, while hay is
produced everywhere the world over,
and thus the hay crop greatly outweighs
either of the other two. The aggregate
reported value of all farm products for
1870 was 81, Al, 538, 658; but as this in
cludes additions to stock, "better-
ments," etc., it is probably too high.
Now, the hay crop for that year, that is
the grass dried and cured for use or sale,
is reported at over 100000 tons.
This, at half the selling price in the
large cities, would amount to over $405,
600, 600, and is far greater than the ag-
gregate home value of the cotton crop,
or any other crop.

Thoughts of Great Men.

We always think of great men as in
the act of performing the deeds which
give them renOwn, or else in stately re-
pose, grand, gloomy, and majestic. And
vet this is hardly fair, because even the
most gorgeous and magnificent of hui
man beings have to bother themselves
with the little things of life which en-
gage the attention of US smaller people.
No doubt Moses snuffed and got angry
when he had a severe cold in his head,
and if fly bit his leg while he was sit
ting in the desert, why should we sup
pose he did not jump and use violent
language and rub the sore place? And
Caesar, isn't it tOlerably certain that he
used to become furious when he went
upstairs to get his slippers in the dark
and found that Calphurnia had showed
them back under the bed so that he had
to sweep around wildly Cor them with
the broom-handle And when Solomon
cracked his crazy bone, is it unreason-
able to suppose that he hoped around
the room and looked mad and felt as if
he wanted to cry? Imagine George
Washington sitting on the edge of the
bed putting on a clean shirt, and grOwl-
ing at Martha because the buttons were
off; or ST. Augustine with an apron
around his neck having his lair cut; or
Joan of Arc holding her front hair in her
mouth, as women do, while she fixed up
her back hair; or Napoleon jumping
out of bed in frenzy to chase mosqui-
to around the room with pillow; or
Martin Luther in his night-shirt trying
to put the baby to sleep at 2 o'clock in
the morning; or Alexandria the Great

dog; or the duke of Wellington lying

Webster abusing his wife because she
hadn't tucked the covers in at the foot

hot beef; or Noah standing at his win

-Apropos of the present discussion Of
"Cesarism" is the following definition
of the original Julius "Julius Cesar
An ancient Roman of celebrity. He
advertised to the effect that he had
rather be first at Rome than second at a
small village. He was a man of great
muscular strength. Upon one occasion
he threw a whole army across the Rubi-
con. A general named Pompey met
him in what was called the tented field,
but Pompey couldn't hold a Roman
candle to julius. We are assured, upon
the authority of Patrick Henry. that
Cesar had his Brutus.' The unbiased
reader of history, however, will con-
clude that, on the contrary, Brutus
rather had Cesar. This Brutus never
struck me as being an unpleasant man
to meet, but he did Cesar. After ad-
dressing few oral remarks to Brutus in
Latin language, Cesar expired. His
subsequent career is without interest.
Cesar was bald, which Grant is not,
and wore larural fly brush to conceal
the billiard ball which he called head.

1t is a good and safe rule to sojourn
in every place as if you meant to spend
your life there, never emitting an OPP
portunity of doing a kindness, or speak
ing true word, or making friend.
Seeds thus sown by the way-side often
bring forth an abundant harvest. You
might SO spend your summer among the
people that they and their descendants
should be better and happier, through
time and eternity, for your works and
your example. In order that people
may be happy in their work, these three
things are needed: They must be fit
for it they must not do too much of
it ;; and they must have a sense of sue
cess in it, not a double sense, such as
needs some testimony of other people
for its confirmation, but sure sense,
or rather knowledge, that so much
work has been done well, and fruitfully
done, whatever the world may say or
think about it. So that in order that a
man may be happy, it is necessary that
he should not only be capable of his
work, but a good judge of his work.

One of the London Times's achieve
ments was an account of the entry of
the Prussians into Paris, some six or
seven columns long, which it published
next morning, although there was then
no telegraph between Paris and Lon
don. say although. I might say be-
cause, for it really seemed as if the
Times managed this because it had to
be done in the old way, and fell in with
the traditions and customs of the paper.
DR.. Russell, with one or two colleagues,
witnessed the entry, left Paris by special
train in the evening to Calais, thence by
special steamer to Dover, from which
again a special train brought them to
London about three in the morning.
They wrote en- route, and their story
was easily put in type for the mornings
paper, which goes to press at o'clock.
This performance was also a good illus
tration of the kind of influence which
the Times can bring to bear when it
chooses. Other London papers at
tempted the same thing, and there was
a keen rivalry about it because it was
belieYed that the entry of the Prussians
would not be made without a serious
conflict, or at least a disturbance; so
much faith did people still put in French
buster. The circumstances were pecu
liar; for Paris, though it had surrend-
cred, was still held by its French gar
rison, the Prussian lines still surrounded
it, and the country which the railway
between Paris and Calais traverses was
partly in French and partly in Prussian
occupation. The confusion of jurisdic-
tions, the disorganization of traffic, the
difficulty with which a traveller could
make his way with the strongest Gre
dentials, were Incredible to anybody
who had not tried it. The Telegraph,
which had been used to having its own
way it Paris, did it's best to get special
train. 1t offered any price, but this was
a case in which money was powerless,
and it failed. The Times, after trying
through the usual channels without
success, went to Baron Rothschild, who
owns a large part of the stock in the
Northern railway, and told him they
wanted the train and must have it.
They got it, and there was not another
paper in Europe which could have got
It in that way, or in any way.-Si'ool-

BILE the climax of bad dream. The
bystanders who witnessed the following
narrow escape, related by French pa
per, must have felt extremely anxious to
wake. A child of five and a half years
of age was playing at one of the win
dows of house in the Rue de la Trappe,
when it leant too far out and fell. The
mother darted to the window in agony,
and saw her child hanging by its pima
fore to an iron hook fastened to the
half-opened shutter of window on a
lower story. In spite of the entreaties
of a neighbor, the unhappy mother
stood gasping for breath, her hands
clutching the window-sill, and her
whole appearance model for statue
of despair. Suddenly a voice cried q:
" Make haste his pinafore is tearing"
The mother tainted, but the door had
now been broken in and the porter drew
the shutter gently inwards, and thus at
length succeeded in placing the child
safe and sound on the floor of the room.

DESTRUCTION IN DISGUISE. is a
fact that mixtures of bad liquors and
acid astringents are often given for
medicines. They are potent to destroy,
and may be safely warranted to ruin,
morally and physically, any human be-
ing that sticks to them long enough.
More drunkards have been made by
these villianous connections, labelled
medicines, than by the liquors of COM
merce. Alcoholic poisons, advertised
as remedies, are more mischievous than
tavern drains. For intermittent and re-
mittent fevers, as well as for all other
diseases which these fiery frauds are
falsely certified to relieve, Dr. Walkers
Vinegar Bitters, the ne platS ultra of
vegetable medicines, is a positive cure.
But this is not all the great temper

WOMEN's RIGHTs.-One of the I'M
doubted rights of married woman is to be
protected by her husband from the chances of
future dependence, or the possible restitution
that is likely to result from his early DEATH be-
fore he has had time to make sufficient pro-
vision tor her future support and that of the
children he may leave behind him. One of the
most certain means of making this provision
is by means of policy of life insurance. as a
small annual payment will secure a large
amount at his death to the family of the in
sured. One of the safest of these companies
is the Penn mutual life insurance company of
Philadelphia, through which life policies may
be obtained, or agencies secured by application

A SHREwD LAwYER.-Chief-i justice
Parsons, of Massachusetts, always main
tanned that reputation for eloquence
was injurious to a lawyer. He said that
q jury generally braced themselves
against such man, determined not to
be beguiled by his eloquence, and it
took both time and tact to overcome this
prejudice. His practice was in harmony
with his theory. On one of his first WIS.,
its to Maine, young lawyer was at
tracted to hear him. He found Mr.. Par
sons already engaged in his argument.
He stood with one foot on a chair, and
with his elbow on his knee, was talking
of the case as Familiarity as if at his own
Preside. It was evident that his simple
and easy manner had taken the jury cap
tive. He was very short; and the de-
liberation of the jury was much shorter.
They gave a verdict for his client, and
one of them said to the young lawyer,
" Who is this Mr.. Parsons He isn't
much of lawyer, and doesn't talk or
look like as if he would ever be one !;
but he seems to be a real good sort of
a man. The theory worked we'll in
that casa
