The financial condition Of the
national organization of the Gran
gers seems to be enjoying first-class
financial prosperity. After expending
$50, 900 during the past year in pre-
preparing and distributing documents
and pamphlets for the subordinate
Oranges, explanatory of the objects
and purposes of the organization, and
in furnishing books and implements
for their work. the treasury is still so
plethoric that the Con1xlittee having
Its management have determined to
make permanent investment Of forty
thousand dollars in United States reg
istered bonds. After this is done there
will still be upwards of ten thousand
dollars on hand in the treasury as a
working fund. From this showing it
will be apparent that more than $780,
600 were contributed by the Patrons
of Husbandry during the twelvemonth
just passed. As large as this sum may
seem, it is confidently asserted it will
be very largely Increased during the
coming year. The growth Of the Or
der all over the United States has been
unprecedentedly rapid in the past, and
since the actual practical good it has
achieved has been made apparent, its
growth will increase with still greater
rapidity in the future. The member
ship of one Grange recently organized
in New Hampshire, represents 81, 600,
600 capital; in other parts of the
country are scores of Oranges which
represent from one quarter to three
fourths of a million of the staunChest
kind of capital-virgin soil. In point
of fact no class ofbusiness men. except
it may be the banks, which can roll up
stupendous aggregate of securities
and nominal values, have so large an
amount Of real wealth as the farmers.
Their vast resources are now pledged,
through the Grange organization, to
the breaking up of rings, destroying
monopolies, crushing corruptions and
reforming the many abuses under
which all the productive classes have
hitherto suffered.

RESULTS. The heavy winds of yes
terday caused considerable destruction
to property. A strong gust Of wind
came swooping down on Montgom-
ery's livery stable, and took out the
gable end thereof slick and clean, A
string ofa hundred feet or more Of
picket fence, on los. Gray's property
on Front and Lyon streets, was blown
down. A portion of plank fence
opposite the City Mills was made to
lean towards the gTOund.> Cloth shades
were whipped into rags; windows
were blown in and the panes smashed,
and signs were blown hitller and yon.
Quite.a number Of people were seen
chasing their hats, while one little tel
low was trlpped up and fell prone In
the mud by the violence Of the gale.

We learn from the Chronicle that the
Grangers of California were to open,
ut Nos. Ala and 4l6 Sansome street,
San Francisco, on the lst inst, a large
store bearing the somewhat formida-
BILE title OF 1.-THE Dairy Produce De-
partment Of the California State
Grange" 1t win be, as its name ips
dicates, controlled directly by the
State Grange, and primarily for the
benefit Of members of the Order Of
Patrons of Husbandry. John H.
Hegler, Master of Bodega Grange, in
Sonoma county, an experienced dairy
lnaa, has been employed by the State
Grange as its manager. As a matter
ufc0urse, the details Of its system Of
doing business are kept as a secret to
all bit Changers; but this much may
be said. that they are such as will it is
believed, not only effect an enormous
reduction in the amounts hitherto paid
BY farmers and dairymen as commits
sions to the mildIe-men, but will abso-
lutely protect the Patrons Of Husband
nv against the numerous forms Of
pecuation and loss towhich they have
hitherto been subjected. Agricultur-
lists who are not yet members Of the
Oranges may sell their produce through
this Grange store, BY payment Of the
usual commissions, but this arrange
ment Is offered merely as an accom-
modation to them, not as a solicitation
for their business. In time the range
of trade which will be covered by this
So-opemtive store under the control Of
the State Oranges viii, without doubt
be greatly extended. so as to cover the
entire grouad of agricultural products,
and for this reason the new "Dairy
Produce Department" may be looked
upon as the first OF a series Of deadly
blows at the entire "middle-mep" sys-
TEN, and, consequently ae of the deep
sstinterest to the entire community.

DEAR Journal: The writer and family,
and some twenty families beside, have been
stopping upon these beautiful grounds several
days. You are aware, probably, that there
are some forty cottages or more here, some
OF which are quite tasteful. Kinsman's,
Sawtelle's, Lowell's, and Strout's, upon Hal
lowell avenue, are built alike, upon lots ad-
joining, and have cook-houses in the rear
making very convenient arrangement. On
Augusta avenue, among the most notcea bic
cottages, are those of Wells. Brick, William
son, Sanborn, Bailey and Atkins. These are
all built in good taste and in line. and are an
ornament TO the grounds. The larger num-
Der, however, were built before the avenues
are somewhat mixed, especially in rear of the
Augusta headquarters. Time and little for
bearance on the part Of the Association will
regulate all these defects, and in few years
this will become one OF the most beautiful
groves en- the kennebec. Already the avenues
above referred to have been nicely graded
with gravel, which is nexhaustible on the
grounds of the Association, as fast as they
are made straight and permanent, and as fast
as cottages are erected the streets and aven-
ues will be put in proper shape.
Some Of the societies have nice headquar-
ters erected, the best of which belongs to the
Waterville society, being two stories high,
the upper story being appropriated to sleeping
apartments.
New avenues have been cut this season
ard Improvements made as fast as the tinan-
ces of the Association will permit. One man
is employed on the ground constantly, who
looks after the property.
The Tabernacle was raised last Saturday,
and large audience gathered in it Sunday to
listen to Mrs. Clark from New Jersey. Her
sermon was based upon the miracle recorded
in the second chapter of Mark The point
made was, "taith for others" The lady has
unusual power to hold the attention of an
audience, and is an instrument in the hands
of God for doing great good.
Rev. j. B. Lapham preached fine sermon
! in the forenoon, from the stand.
Judging from appearances, the meetings
this week will be interesting and profitable
Already the people are tocking from all
points to enjoy the annual ''feast of Taberna-
cles.' Prominent members of the National
Campmeeting Association will be present and
participate in the services.

The garden and farm connected with the
Classical School in this city has been under
the management Of Mr.. Parker Smith and it
may be safely stated that Mr.. s., is ahead of
us all in producing early vegetables, and that
in quantity and quality his productions are
unrvaled. Several acres are devoted to
corn, potatoes, leans, peas, squashes and
garden vegetables generally. Mr.. S. has al
ready marketed potatoes, peas, beans, beets,
cucumbers, &C., and will have green corn
and ripe tomatoes in few days Good
enough for season so unfavorablc for early
planting in open air.
