Senator Bayard, of Delaware.
"that Grant will take the nomina.
ton if he can get it, and | believe
he would not hesitate to employ
the armed forces of the United
States in various Southern States
In the Union if he saw the least
chance of success. But Grant is
not fool. lie is persistent, OBJ
stinate even, in all his doings.-
At the same time, he has a great
degree of common sense. Every.
thing depends upon the fall cleo
tons of this year. Should they
90 against the Administration, you
will hear no more of the third
term; but if they should go other
wise, take my word for it Gen.
Grant will lose no opportunity in
drawing comfort from it, and you
will see him the Republican can
didate for the Presidency next
year"

A Monster Farm.

The following are some OF the
figures of the monster farm of Hi
nois. We believe there is no like
farm III the world for the size or
production. Three years ago it
excited the admiration of an En-
glish company. who offered ST.
100000 for the land and improve.
ments, which was then declined.
The hard times have since thrown
it into the hands of II. W. Sage,
of N. Y, who has an interest IN it
Of about 100000. 1t cost $685.
900 to pat iD this years crops:
The Sullivan farm in Ford
county, Illinois, about 100 miles
from Chicago, is now in possession
of Hon. Hiram Sibley, of Roches-
ter, aud is the largest farm in the
country, if not in the world. Of
these 10000 acres, $4,000 acres
are planted in corn, 5000 iu oats,
flax and other crops, all the rest
being in grass lands, say 1900
acres. There are 200 miles in
hedge. The farm has land equal
to CT miles in length by one mile
in width. The land is divided
into S sections, and covers s
square miles with boulevardS run
ming along each two miles, so that
there is but one mile of roadway
to the boulevard. The railroad
passes through IA miles of the
land. There are nsw $4,000
acres in crops, and the rest of the
land, except sixty acres in groves
is all in timothy. To take the
corn from the cribs to the corn
shelter, requires ll3 wagons
There are coal lands near at hand
and the coal costs but So a ton.
The working stock consists of 474
mules, Each of the 8 grand d.
visions is divided into S subordi
nate divisions, so that the men
and beasts are all fed within one
mile Of each other, and no one
has to go over one mile from the
field 20 find food or rest. There
is a central Office where reports
are sent daily of all the work done.
Each of the concerts holds 5000
bushels; l 900 bushels of corn are
SHIELDED each hour and put in cars
ready for movement. The corn
shelter, necessary for the work,
cost $40, 600, and is not worked
by steam. The work is all done
by mules, and 10000 bushels OF
corn are shelled each day.
Mr.. Sibley also has the largest
farm ip New York State, which
covers 4 900 acres of land. The
statistics on the Illinois farm are
simply immense, and almost in
comprehensive. 1t is not yet
settled that such farming will pay,
though it is reported that the IA
nous Alexander farm of 1900
acres has paid well at times
Taking into consideration uncer-
tain weather aud crops and wages
and markets, the work is greater
than most men would like to han
die. The elephant is often too
big to manage.
