THE COUNTRY GENTLEMAN.
VOLUME FOR 1874.


The "Cultivator and Country Gentleman for
the past forty years, has ranked, both in this
country and abroad, as the standard journal of
American agriculture The editors and propri-
etors, in addition to their own personal labors,

culturists, in all parts of the country, East and
West-and by over FIVE HUNDRED OCCA-
SIGNAL AND VOLUNTARY WRITER'S direct.
ly in the ranks of the best farmers and horti-
culturists of nearly every State in the Union.
With the cooperation of SO large corps of prac-
tical men, this journal is intended to possess
exceptional value as the chosen medium of
inter-commnnication among all classes inter-
ested in the products and fertility of the land
those who cultivate and those who consume
the buyer and shipper, as well as the first owner
of the crop-breeders Of improved animals and
their customers-ma of improved
machinery and those who purchase and employ
it-nurserymen and fruit-raisers-and especial.
ly, to supply fuller and better data as to the pro.

LINCoLN's BIRTHDAY.-A memorial
has been addressed to the Senate and House
Of Representatives of the United States of
America, asking that the birthday of
Abraham Lincoln, February 18th, be
nominated and appointed by Congress a
legal holiday ''that universal people may
rejoice together in this great gift of God to
man." This memorial originated in
Buffalo, New York, and is accompanied
by an essay and poetic biography of
ex-President Lincoln. The names of
signers are appended representing the
different states and territories of the
American Union. The proposed enact
ment by Congress would, no doubt, be o
fitting and appropriate acknowledgment Of
the surprising merits of the great emanci-
pator, but experience proves that in these
eminently unitarian days and times Con-
gress is too much engrossed in the living
issues of the hour to pay much attention
towards recognizing sentiment, however
much it may appeal to the hearts Of the
people.

70 The seventh annual session of masters
and past masters Of State Oranges is now
being held at st. Louis. A correspondent
of THE JOURNAL says: ..,,.
Great cordially and harmony of feeling
prevails, and all seem animated by an
earnest desire to adopt such measures as
shall advance the welfare and elevation of
the producing masses.
The scheme of national banks and money
monopoly is almost unanimously repro
bated as an outrage upon all industrial
classes. And an equal unanimity of SEN
timent is expressed in favor of the princi-
pal that government should issue all the
money, without the Intervention Of banks.
I Thty believe. too, that the governments,
the national and state, have the same right
to control the rates of charges of railroads,
Incorporated by them, as they have to
control the tolls on canals and turnpikes.
And that it is the province Of Congress to
regulate the tariffs Of railroads which run
through, and out of one state into another.
Lawmakers will find that they will have
to do these things. POTOMAC.
