are able to accumulate money Is to b'
found in the fact that the peasants have
beep the main subscribers to the grea
loans which have been raised in France
and that at the present time the French
debt to the amount of FL, 900, 000, 900 o
our money is held by 1000, 900 OF per
sons, while British consuls to the amount
of G7OO, 100000 are held by not more
than $50, 900 persons. 1t will be said, o.
course, that the climate and soil OF
France differ from England SO much that
no comparison can be drawn between
them. This may be admitted as regards
the central and southern parts OF France
where the cultivation of the vine and
olive is specially suited to peasant own
ers but its northern and western prov
inces are in no way different from the
greater part of England. The garden of
France is unquestionably Normandy,
the climate and soil of which differ in no
essential quality from those of the south
of England, and which especially resem-
BILE such counties as Kent and Somerset
shire. In Normandy there is a greater
variety in the ownership of property
than in any other part of France; large
estates with resident owners are numer-
GUS; but still more so are small proper
ties; there are an immense number of
peasant proprietors, but they do not
monopolize the land as in some parts of
France. eff ] had to point out the
happiest part Of France" says Monsieur
de Lavergne, ~ should not hesitate to
select Normandy. Population there in
creases slowly in proportion to wealth;
while its wealth has increased fourfold
since 1889, it's population has increased
by one.third only. In many rural COM
munes there is not single pauper."
The writer adds La plupart des Nor
mands mont pas lu Nautilus, mais lis
pratiquent instinctivement ses conseils."
The Gaze Of Normandy is especially in
structive, as it shows wha, is the result
Of happy combination of every variety
of large owners and small owners of land,
farmed by tenants, and of peasants farm
ing their own land. In the more north
ern provinces Of France property is even
more divided, and gives admirable re-
suits, though perhaps the net produce
after taking into account the number of
cultivators is not so great.

n SIx-YEAR-OLD BOY'S SUICIDE

A six.year-old son of DIR. A. r. Eaton,
of Elizabeth, n. S., committed suicide,
on Saturday, by shooting himself in the
breast. It seems the little fellow has
been very respondent during the last
few weeks, owing to the death of a sister
who had been his constant companion
and on more than one occasion threaten
ed to kill himself. Els parents endesv'
ored to cheerhim and diverthis Thoughts
but to their efforts he replied that pc
wanted to be an angel and live with hS
little sister. On Saturday morning hS
mother chided him for something, where
upon he went away apparently much ~

heard the report of a pistol, and rushing
up the stairs was met by her son, VINO

PUSHING THE COTTON CROP TO MAR
kET.

Our special correspondents are giving
us each in their turn some valuable sta
tistics relative to the amount of cotton
left on the plantations, and the estimate
made by our Galveston agent to day of
$4,000 for Texas will be great surprise
to those, leaning to 100000 as the
probable out-turn of the crop. We firmly
believe that in no other season before
has such energy been used by planters to
send their crops forward, the extra
ordinary facilities of transportation and
the moral tear, entertained at the COM
mencement of the season, of the low
prices to be accepted, having stimulated
shipments to a greater extent than any
previous year.-Nea0 York Cotton Record.

d HOME.

What is a homer A guarded space
Wherein few, unfairly biest
Shall sit together, face to face,
And back and purr and be at rest?
Where cushioned walls rise up between
Its inmates and the common air,
Tho common pain, and pad and screen
From blows Of fate or winds OF caref
Where Art may blossom strong and free,
And pleasure furl her silken wing,
And every laden moment be
precious and peculiar thing?
And mast and future, softly yelled
In hiding mists shall fiost and lie,
Forgotten half, and unassai'ed
BY either Hspe or Memsry.
While the luxuriant Present weaves
Her perfumed spells untired, untrue,
Breeders her garments, heaps her sheaVes,
All for the pleasure OF few?
Can II be this--the longed-for thing
Which wanders on the restless foam,
Unshe' tered beggars, birds on wing,
Aspire to, dream OF, christen =" Home
No. Art may bloom, and peace and bliss;
Grief may refrain and Death forget;
But If there be no more than this,
The soul OF home Is wanting yet,
Dim image from far glory caught,
Fair type OF fairer things TO be.
The true home rises in our thought,
AS beacon tor all men to see.
Its lamps burn freely in the night;
Its fire-elows unchidden shed
Their cheering and Astounding light
On homeless folk uncontrolled.
Each sweet and secret thing within
Gives out a fragrance on the ait
A thankful breath, sent forth to win
a little smile from others care.
The few, they bssk in closer heat;
The many catch the farther ray
Life higher seems, the world more sweet,
And hope and heaven less far away.
So then old miracle anew
Is ought on earth and proven good,
And crumbs appointed for few,
God. blessed, suffice multitude.

AND now comes another use for pc
troleum. Consul Stevens, in his report
on the trade OF Nicolaief during the
past year, states that that part of south
Russia continued free from cattle plague.
But his attention was drawn in summer
to the several classes of sudden badness
of oxen and cows, and the loss OF tails
and names among horses. He recol-
lected that former servant of his, pre-
matnrely bald, had got the habit, when
trimming the lamps, of wiping his pc
troleum-be-smeared hands in the scanty
locks which remained to him, and the
result was much finer head OF black,
glossy hair than he ever had before AT
the consuls suggestion the owner OF
several black cattle and horses affected
