TO MARRY, OR NOT TO MARRY.
Rn1firu,nrn rnnricnr


An interesting discussion is going
on Just now between certain volunteer
correspondents of the NeaU York Times
as to whether it is better for a young
man, residing in a large city, who has
a yearly income ranging from $1,000
to S1,S00, TO marry or not to
marry. As matter of course,
those who maintain the afirma-
tive have the popular side of the ques-
ton, but 1t is surprising to see what
weighty arguments can be produced in
the negative. The confirmed bachelors
contend that marriage should, as a
rule, take place between persons of
kindred tastes, and who occupy rela-
lively the same position in society.
The man who has a modest income of
81, 800 q year, can dress tolerably well,
live comfortably, and procure some of
the luxuries which are sought after by
people of cultivated taste. He does
not care to marry awoman beneath him
in social position, not because her for
tuneis small, but because her education
is presumably defective, and she has not
been trained to the habits of life with
which he is familiar, and which he
deems essential to his happiness. A
poor" girl might accept his hand and
share his humble fortune without COM
plant, but there is a possibility that
the companionship of a woman who had
grown up in comparative poverty
might not be agreeable to him. Some
poor" girls are well educated and ac-
complished, but great many are not.
Thus reasons the New York bachelor,
and concludes to remain single rather
than ask girl who has been raised In
affluence to come down to humber
things, or to run the risk of taking a
wife whose struggle with adversely has
left her without the accomplishment
so pleasing to a man of cultivated
tastes. We have no doubt that
he is entirely wrong in his reas-
oning and In his conclusions; we think
that every man N New York who has
an income of 81, 800 might find a wife
capable of adapting herself to his cir
cumstances, and whose intellectual cul-
ture would not be inferior to his own.
But the fact that considerations like
these prevent thousands of young men
from marrying is only too apparent.
One gentleman writes to the Times
that he has been hunting for a wife for
fifteen years, but has never found a
weIl-educated girl, occupying a good
position in society, who was willing to
accept himself and his 81, 800 a year.
He claims to be well bred, looking
and accomplished, a welcome guest in
the home of the rich, and an expert in
manly sports, such as rowing, riding
and driving. We think that, after all
this advertising, this poor, lone bache-
lor viii be likely to get wife, adaugh-
ter Of one of the first families of New
York or some other city. 1t is not i'm
probable but that the proposal may
come from the lady.

ARICH CHURCH.

Col. torney IN the Phlladelphla Press.
The salaries of twenty-eight prelates of
the Established Church of England amount
to f152,000 year, or nearly $4,000; but
to this you must add f3S,00O for as many
deans. The annual patronage attached to
these twenty-eight dioceses is valued at
f901, 165. This patronage includes canons
resident, archdeacons, and other clerical
snuggeries. The value of the real estate of
the Established Church of England may be
estimated from its revenue, which at its
lowest rate is f7,O00,000, or $4,000, goo
annually. The Established Church Of
Scotland (Presbyterian) owns !, ESQ church
es, educates 100000 scholars, and raises
fl50,O00 annually for home and mission
airy purposes. Within twenty years $50
parish chapels, costing $500, 900, rave been
endowed and erected. ..-...

INDIAN SUMNER AND ITS OPPORTU.
MITES

Autumn, with its charming Indian
summer, is with us, and it is busy
time with Southern farmers, some in
gathering cotton and others in seeding
broad fields to wheat, barley and other
cereals. A few are blowing, harrow
ing, and sowing grass seed for perma-
nent pastures and and meadows-an
enterprise which We hope will prove
successful.
Farmers need more rollers to pres
loose earth close to all seeds sown or
planted, which viii not only bring them
up sooner, but tend to prevent frost
heaying the young plants out of the
ground.
Try to have a frst-rate harrow, and
use it thoroughly to make a very fine
seeded for grass and clover seed te-
fore sowing them. Everything de-
ponds on giving grass a vigorous start,
and a strong hold of the ground.
We notice a gooddealo of pressed hay,
especially clover, brought to this city
from the North by rail. This fact
leads to suggestions for the increase of

WHEAT CULTURE IN FRANCE.


The regular correspondent in France
of the American Farmer, published in
Baltimore. says the wheat harvest has
proved 50 bountiful that France, it is
estimated, can export about three and
a half million quarters" This is equal
to thirty million bushels, after supply.
ing a home population of over thirty
million souls. According to Balbi,
there are eleven million land-holders
who pay taxes, with holdings that av-
erage about five acres each, being, per-
haps, the smallest farmers, in the area
cultivated by each, in Europe. This
was some twenty years ago. Balbi
adds:
GAS a great proportion of these pro-
prietors are fathers whose children are
not vet in possession of the shares
which must fall to them, and as they
all have heirs more immediate or more
remote, we must expect to see property
partitioned still more and more"
These statistics are instructive, show
ing that very small farms do not fail
to give plenty of wheat to nearly forty
million people from a comparatively
small surface, and add thirty million
bushels surplus to export. Where
farmers with fve-acre farms, not only
feed themselves and families, but a
large manufacturing population, and
great cities ike Paris, and still
have grain 10 spare, it is wise to study
their system of tillage and husbandry.
While we use in Tennessee very weak
manure, spread over large surface,
with much labor, they purchase con-
centrated fertilizers which are easily
handled, and pursue what is called the
intensive system of farming. The
French Association for the promotion
of science has one section devoted to
agriculture. At recent meeting of
the Association, M. Corenuinder, whose
life has been devoted to investigations
in vegetable physiology, read paper
showing that plants derive their car
bon from the air and not from the
soil.
Common stable manure, worth hardly
fifty cents a ton in Nashville, con-
tains some 90 per cent. of its weight
of carbon and water; whereas, the best
concentrated superphosphate is worth
overSl00 ton. Our general ignorance
of plant food, and how crops grow, tends
to depreciate the market value Of our
farming lands and disqualify US to
compete successfully with Europeans
in the supply Of breadstuffs to their
own inhabitants. European science is
giving the people there cheaper bread
and for time checking emigration to
this continent. knowledge is power
in agriculture, as in all the other pur-
suits of life.

FINANCIAL.

Though the banks are not discounting,
except TO very limited extent, we think
there is less demand for money. At least
there is less paper offered to the brokers ard
on the streets, and the indications are that
the immediate pressure for money is over.
Exchange on New York is quiet. The
banks in buying take ii at discount TO par
while in selling they charge at the rate of
81 per thousand premium.
Gold opened in New York at 1105 and

in gold here and it is only offered for sale
