BUREAU OF AGRICULTURE.

A strong effort is being made to bring
Congress to such recognition OF the
Importance of the agricultural interests
as to induce the establishment OF
bureau Of agriculture as an executive
department, giving that interest a Sec
rotary of Agriculture in the cabinet
Considering that the agricultural in
terests are the most important in this
country, and indeed those upon which
all other interests are based, it may
well surprise careful thinkers and OBJ
servers that this Importance had not
been accorded TO it before. But moth
ing comes without the asking, and to
the great awakening and just demands
of the farming interests is this new
mode to be attributed. The move is
but another evidence of the power OF
the agricultural classes for good, and
the Grange movement is entitled to its
full share Of the credit for this.
The Importance of securing an indie
pendent, executive departments of agri-
culture, can hardly be oyerestimated.
With q Secretary, having power to
make recommendations direct to Con
gress, to guard and foster this great
interest, agricultural industry will be
accorded dignity and Importance that
it has long deserved, and which shall
be but the precursor OF an era OF pros
perity which shall crown this industry
as chief of ali in our great nation.-Er-
chaRge.
NUTs, WITH RICu KERSALs.-The
Changers of the United States have
$40, 900, 900 invested in their various
enterprises. ~
But for the few Oranges and agricul-
tural journals, the people at large would
hardly know that the National Grange
had been in session. The political
press, as general thing, gave no at
tention whatever to the proceedings.
This fact ought to arouse the farmers
to the great Importance OF charging
and extending the circulation OF those
papers that are specially devoted to
their cause. Build up your press,
Patrons, and it will not only keep you
posted rs to the movements OF your
representative bodies, but will be a
power III advocating and defending your
interests. Turn over a new leaf. With
draw your patronage from newspapers
hostile to your cause, aud bestow it up
on those that are its triends.- Column

WAITING FOE THE ECHO.

Something appears to be out of condi-
ton with the mail and telegraph service
between New Orleans and Washington.
At least the Democrats can not get back
even an echo in response to the report
sent out from St. Patrick's Hall. Either
the lobby at Washington is disposed to
receive the opportunities Of Louisiana"
with GOODNESS, or there is something wrong
with the means of communication. One
unlucky New Orleans journal ventured to
publish o special the other day, in which
it is more than intimated that the Wash
ington Democrats are dissatisfied with the
movement Of the party here, but the only
regular organ has rebuked it 50 severely
that it is doubtful whether its correspond
ent will venture to pursue the subject
further.
No doubt the small fry politicians
of this locality, all and singular, will
feel mortified and irritated at the silent
contempt which has been manifested on
the occasion of the recent gush at St Pat
tricks Hall. They expected to set the
continent ablaze with indignation by the
lashing up Of their causes of discomfort.
The only response received SO far is in
dicative of cold water rather than fire, and
the Democrat retorts bitterly upon the
faithful correspondent who sent the in
formation. This torpor on the part Of
the Northern Democracy is very disheart-
ening, and not what the original pro-
jectors Of tho grand convention expected.
They did not think it possible that their

THE PRIZES IN OUR POLITICAL LOTTERY

IdE 1hlH6S In OUh 1OA1AAOAA AOA LID -
If the people Of the South, and espe-
cially of Louisiana, would secure that
peace and quiet in political contests
which prevail in other States, they must
initiate the wisdom Of the statesmen
which have shaped their policy. Our
grand scheme presents too many large
prizes to tempt the cupidity and excite
the greed of the office-seekers. The DEM
ocrat, in its onslaught upon the Louisiana
Lottery Company, has overlooked the
fact that the whole political system of
this State is lottery full of fat prizes.
Under the influence Of fattery the people
of the South have been led to believe
they are more liberal, more generous and
more hospitable than any other people in
the world. This idea once established, it
follows us logical consequence that our
offices of trust and dignity should be sus-
tanned by much better salaries than
are attached to the performance OF
similar service elsewhere. We pay the
Governor $1,000 per annum. Illinois,
State having three times the popu-
lation of Louisiana and ten times the
resources, pays $500. Missouri, nearly
as large as Illinois, gives the Governor
s25OO, while Iowa, Maine and Kansas
pay the same. Our other State officers,
except the Secretary of State, receive
$4,000, and two of them, the Auditor and
the Attorney General, have perquisites in
the way of fees, amounting to more than
double their salaries. In addition to thus
being overpaid, $4,000 or $4,000 is
annually distributed under the guise Of
contingent funds. Our Mayor is compen-
stated at the annual rate of $500; the six
Administrators receive $4,000 each, be-
sides having numerous fat places, some Of
which are little more or less than sine
cures, to bestow upon those who have
worked for them. There must needs be
two sheriffs, with from $50, 900 to $4,000
a year, though we understand that the
sheriffs Of New York, Chicago, Cincinnati,
St. Louis and Philadelphia are as literally
paid. Then come the clerks Of courts,
with fees averaging 100000 each, besides
inferior places between all these offices
to maintain On army of high livers, all
non-producers. Nearly all the ex-oficials
have retired with rather ample means,
though many of them were VIGOROUSLY
poor before. Were it not that many of
these ambitious statesmen have lost
heavily in speculations in newspaper
stock, they would be comparatively indie
pendent. But what they have done with
their money is not SO much matter for
the people to inquire into as how they re-
ceived it.
It is not Radicalism. nor Democracy,
nor contest for principle of any kind
that afiiicts and curses this State, so much
as the interminable wrangling for the
magnificent pensions which are held out
as prizes for all who can win them by fair
means or foul. If the Senate and House
will come to a complete understanding,
revise the whole civil list, with the sched-
ule of prices paid in Vermont i'll one hand
and the merciless pruning knife in the
other, they will perform surgical opera
ton which will restore the patient to health
and insure tranquility in the future.
