Olive Logan in q letter from London,
says the reason why English people
are SO wary Of giving credence to the
value Of anything they see or hear in
America is just because Of this gilded
hollowness. Our grand hotels are mag

don't pay expenses. Our railroads are
superbly equipped and seem to do a

and waste, and useless extravaganza,
all profits are more than absorbed. To

Profits OF Farming.

loss Of farming. On one side it is con-
tended that /, handsome profit can be
realized, on the other, that nothing
but bare living can be made. Now,
both may be right in q certain sense,
and both wrong. The difference
seems to lie il the fact that each per-
son looks through q separate medium
and draws his conclusions accordingly.
It is natural to make differences from
ones own management, and for this
reason. we see such q variety Of onin-
ions III the agricultural discussions Of
the day. 70 our mind it is as clear as
the MONDAY sun, that no business is
more profitable in the long run than
farming. We all remember that a
few years ago-say just after lS57-all
that the farmers could do was to pay
taxes and support the family-and
come out almost behind at the end Of
the year-in most cases. Then wheat
was worth 40 cents per bushel, butter
to cents per pound. oats 10 cents
per bushel. and eggs three cents per
dozen. But with few exceptions these
same farmers Of the good old terrific
rial days have become we'll Off. Farm
products Of every variety has ruled
high, considering all matters, ever
since the second year Of the war, and
some of them claim that when
produce is high: the cost Of production
is proportionally increased. and when
it is low it will not pay to raise it.
However, farmers will grumble. One
thing we notice too, they have us we
stated before-got rich.
1t is often said that tanners are not
as Industrious now as they were forty
or fifty years ago. We are not will
ling to assent to the assertion. Then
the expense in the family was not
half what it is now. It is true good
management and system are necessary
to success. The old skinning and ex-
hausting process has run the gauntlet.
Of course, if farmers intend to make
money, they must keep up with the
times, study their business, abandon
old sayings, old maxims, old tools, and
they are bound to come out all right.

of the small farmer class, he entered tho ser

age OF seventeen years, and served in the
Sepoy mutiny, in Is Though he never rose
beyond the rank of private soldier, he was
distinguished for gallant conduct during that
terrible struggle, ard left the service with the
best recommendations as to character which

pany with most CT bis regiment, which was
almost exclusively Irish. he joined the Fenian
movement in Dublin and from that time till
his arrest in 1866 was an active propaganda
of the revolutionary movement in the ranks of
the British army. Sir Hugh Rose, afterwards
Lord Strathnairn, having been sent to Ireland
to quell the expected resurrection, Foley was
selected as his orderly, and while in this posi-
tion rendered most effective service to the Irish

communicate NEST important information to

THE ENGLISH PAPERS ON IILDENS
ELECTION.

LONDON, Nov. S-The Times deliberately re-
views the difficulties which Mr.. Tilden will
have to encounter in consequence of conf citing
m ejorities in the Senate and Honse of Represeu-
tatlves, and also because of claims of various
sections OF Democrats for fficial patronage. The
Times considers Gov. Tildel's antecedents a
of Southern pemecratsin favor of reactionary
measu 'es. and in any event it is more obv ious
that there is no danger of his asserting to
measures of iEhation repudiation, He,
moreover, 10 too sogacious to modify bis
foreign policy for the eontertment of Irish
Democrats. There is no ground, whether from
financial or political point of view, for deny
ing him the confidence of EnGlisbmen. We
are bound to respect the clearly pronounced
will of the American people, and we cannot
consider it an unmixed misfortune for the Re-
publlcans that they are temporarily compelled
10 breathe the bracing air of opposition.
The Daily Nt,rs in discussing thesPresidential
election in the United States, says the result
cannot surprise any attentive observer of
American politics. 1t cannot cause the rever
sal of the Legislation of the years imme diately
succeeding Ihe war. 1t is q change rather of
men than Of measures. The NeTs fears no in
jury to the American credit, and regards the
payment of the national debt in specie safe,
whichever party may be in power. 1t bases it's
generally favorable anticipations in o great
measure on the personal autecedents of Mr..
TIlden, who is likely to exercise a restraining
Influence upon the extreme section of the
party. 1t does not as yet see any indication
that the election affects the question of protec.
tive legislation.
= Questions relative to the South have been
the deciding forces, the Neirs thinks, rather
than the currency or free trade problems.
The Standard also regards Mr.. Tilden's ante
cedents az furnishing good guarantee of the
honesty and moderation of his sdministIa alton
and security against inf .tionism.
The Standard congratulates the Americans
on the law abiding spirit displayed throughout
the country, and says the result Of the election
is scarcely q greater cause of congratulation
han the fact that SO close contest for such
great stake should have passed without VIC
lence and bloodshed when riots in few places
might have turned the scale by intimidatiug
voters.
The Pail Mall Gazette, commenting upon the I
Presidential election in the United States, |
says: eve think it is q craze or a calumny to
assert that Mr. Tilden, so distiuctively u re-
preventative of the business men in the
Eastern States, will extend any favor to the |
crude projects of the infiations6s or to the e n
intelligent dishonesty of the repudistionists
liverpool, Nor 9.-The Post says: The an
nouncement of Mr.. Tilden's election is we'll re-
,eived in commercial circles.

IN IRISH AMERICA2 ROMANCE
dublin Irish Times.I

About the year 1892 young man named Col.
Inns enigrated from Lahnch, county Clare
determined to try his fortune in the California
gold fields; and the result of several years
hard work WAS that he realized 0ver SIS 900.
Ahou- two years ago man named John SuIli.
van came over to Limorick from California,
and represented to the relatives of Col ins, and
also to his father now aged about ninety seven
years, that Collins had died in q fanatic asylum
in California, leaving some property, but al
leging that it was worth very little. After
chcapening the article upon which his mind
was bent, Sullivan offefed old Collins G100 if be
would assign him the property; at the same
time stating that it was doGbIYol il it would
ever realize that amount; but as he was a dis
tsnt relative, he would advance them that sum
and save ali further trouble on their part. Old
Collins believed Sullivan's statement, and,
after some further negotiations, assigned the
right to his sons property for El0O, which
Sullivan paid do wn in hard cash, and the as
si0pment was witnessed before Alderman Tins
ley, who acts as American CoDsul-in Limerick.
In the meantime q rumor reached Limerick
that the property left by the younger Collins
was worth Els 900, and John Collins, q
brother of the deceased, who then resided 10
Australia, hearing of the affair, started for
California and made Inquiries. the result of
which is that he has q haven't pending against
Sullivan il he California Chaucery Court.
The Collius family, claimants TO the estate
of the deceased. who never married, contend
tn Sullivan obtained possession of the pro-
perry by fraud, in representing to old Collins
that the estate was worth only Gl00 when in
reality it amounted 10 G1S,00O; aud they
further allege that when old John Collins
igned the deed of assignment, in presence of
the American Consul in Limerick, he was not
in a sound state Of mind, and that be had been
in an imbecile state for fully three years before
be sigued the document which aliens;ed the
{ IL 900 to which he was legally entitled. A
Limerick solicitor has taken evidence as 70 the |
Slams of Collins relatives, and returned it to
the Court of Cbauoery, before which the case is
still pending. If the COllinss succeed, q divi- |
lion Of the property will give each of them
lbout "a, 900.
