AGRICULTURE. - Benjamin Franklin
says: There are three ways for ma
ton to acquire wealth: first by war
this is robbery; second by commerce
this is frequently cheating; then by
agriculture-this is the only honest way
whereby a man receives real increase
of seed thrown into the ground, in n
continual miracle, wrought by the hand
of God in his favor, as a reward for his
innocent life and his virtuous industry"
Washington says: " Agriculture is the
most healthful, most useful and most
noble employment of man." And yet
there is no occupation which offers so
little to attract our most prominent
youth as agriculture or farming, pro-
vided the lives of many of our farmers
are samples Of the lives they must lead
their farms examples of the farms
they must own and till.

CREAM CANDY--MoLAssEs CANDY. TO
every pound of sugar add one teaspoon
full of cream tartar; put in one-ha.f tea
cup of water and set over a slow fire.
Occasionally drop some in cold water;
when it hardens it is done enough
pour on some fat surface. Put in a
few drops of favoring if you like, and
let it stand few minutes; then you
pull it until it is white and make into
sticks. You can exercise your own in
genuity about their shape. The child
rem pronounce it splendid. Molasses
candy is made in the same way, using
molasses instead of sugar and emitting
the favoring and cream tartar. This
candy is improved by stirring in nuts of
any variety which may be convenient.

this the better. Then the dry goods

This is the reason why the farmland
must have his pay at short intervals, for
the very simple reason that he has no
credit, and must pay cash for what he
purchases.

To DO AWAY WITH MATCHES. recent
French invention, which, it is claimed,
will sweep away the match trade, is an
electrical finder box, small enough to
be carried in cigar case. On opening
the box platinum wire is seen, which,
by touching spring, is made at once
red-hot, SO that it will ignite q cigar.
A mesh of cotton stepped in spirits may
also be introduced into tiny sconce,
and little lamp is the result. The
hidden agency which heats the wire is
a'miniature electrical battery, set in &C.
ton by touching the spring.

MR., BAYaRD's sIT.FNCF

The Gdzste deprecates the idea Of Senator
Bayard giving utterance on the currency uues-
ton, Just now. In its opinion, " it would be al
together unseemly in him to force his opipions
forwarded without OCCASION" What the Con-,
MERcIAL has been saying is that ho maintains
silence, although there is 60 occasion " for Lis
speaking-the imitation element having seized
upon his party in two OF the greatest States OF
the Union, and utterly repudiatod tho well known
doctrines hold by Its founders on the currency
question. Mr.. Dayard, however, il mute. Thur.
man and Hendricks have weakened " before
the vehemenco OF Sam Cary and lis crowd and
hero is their Delaware competitor, who We have
been told is very hard money man, standing
speechless, and desiring not " TO force his opin.
ions forward"
Ono thing is very plain That If Allen carris
Ohio, and Pershing carries PENNSYLVANIA.
there will be no possible chance for the nomina.
ton of either Bayard Or Tildon for tho prosi-
dency. The imitation movement, if encouraged
by SUCCESS in those two States will demand and
secure the candidacy OF one of it's own men. and
not even the abiuration by Bayarl and Tldep
of their Iiard-money viows will give them the
ghost OF chance in their national convention
The only possible hopo of either now lie. in tho
severe defeat OF Allen, which will carry will, il

THE Pennsylvania CAMPAIGN.

Tho Republicans of Pennsylvania have now
hard Eight on their hands. This will DO no
holiday campaign. In his personal character
Judge Porshing is competitor whom Governor
aartranft cannot despise, and besides the dos
porate efforts OF the hungry Democracy to &C.
cure " all tho Offices" there will be danger
GUS tendency of some good Republicans to vote
for Pershing just on personal considerations. 1t
is true that the imitation plank may well alarm
many Democrats and hundreds Of them in the
eastern counties will at least stay away from
the polls but unfortunately but few of theii
party can be relied upon to forsake candidates
in order to save principle. They have too long
made principles secondary to slicctsa, to cut
Pershing, even though his election will tremen.
dously urge forward tho widest schemes of in.
ilation, and do infinite damage to tho prosperity
of the nation.
We believe, however, that Governor IIartrauft
cannot be defeated, if proper means are taken
for his re election. The Republicans arc unusu
ally free from local dissensions, and genera
harmony pervades their ranks. Tho "LiberRls'
of 1872, with a few unimportant exceptions
have returned to the company they Left in thai
year. II now there should be a square, open
earnest campaign fought, enlistng the syripa
thes and help of all the natural allies of The
party, encouraging recruits and welcoming con
verts, depressing the element which has kep

THE DEPRESSION NOT DUE TO CON-
TRACTION

A large part OF the intiationist stock in trade
is the declaration that the present period of de-
preston 10 dine to contraction OF the currency,
or to tho anticipation Ct contraction. This il
absolutely untrue. and every Intelligent man
knows it. Tho Panic of 1873 was due to natural
causes 1t was the collapse OF speculative enter
prises the natural reaction from over-produc-
ton, and extravagant expansion Of credit. Jay
Cooke 4 Co, stretched till they snapped and then
tho whole unsouud fabric fell to pieces. The
disaster was aggravated, no donbt, by our unre-
doomed paper currency, and other cognate
causes, but it was in itself Consequence sure
to follow the ox.ravatal Speculation, and wild
enterprises which the immense war expenditures
had produced. 1t was the coming down after
the going up, and was no more due to any con-
traction OF tho currency or any popular dread Of
contraction than the rains of last month were
due to the large Peninsula peach crop
As a matter of fact there has been no APP
preciahle contraction OF tho currency. The
amount in circulation now is as great within n
few millions az it has been ut any time for ten
years. Mr McCulloch retired forty-four mil
lions of grs,nbleks, and Mr.. Richardson re-
issued a largo part Of that amount Undor the
law of lasC Congress-, there has beoI
further small increase of national banl
circulation, and counting everything the curren
cy now, rs we have already said, is scarcely !es
in volume than it was ten years ago. II il hcl,
indeed, by some authorities 10 have been in
crossed in volume.
Now tho manifest purpose Of saying that tn
dull times are caused by lack OF currency is b
deceive to persuade the people unthinkngy b
demand All increase OF paper money. IL is th
effort OF domtgogua', of false advisers, an
moon.struck theorists. 1t might make "llus
times" perhaps, for while, just as 4 drinkin
man enjoys himself whcn lie is drunk, but I'll
reaction would b exactly what VIC had in tn
Panic II 70. ilst as tho recovery from n d
