metal is not also coined in Europe" Up. 36).
To the chairman he said:-.sIf silver is not
restored in Europe how can You sell bonds
in Europe? Who in Europe will buy silver
bonds if silver is refused at the European
minis? Up. &c., Again to Mr.. Bogy:-"The
injury would be that at tho first moment
all your gold would disappear. @. But no
gold would 60 abroad unless it went to pay
debt abroad? A. beg pardon. Germany
will send her thalors to your market and
buy drafts on London--that is to soy, gold
payable by Americans" Up. 41). Again
to the chairman:-"My proposition is
still the same. If you are without
common money with Europe it is
useless for the United States to attempt to
resume specie payments, and it is useless
expense for your government to redeem the
greenbacks by opening the Mint to the
coinage of silver dollars" (p 43). Again:-
''But this is not the worst; the worst is
thar no fixity would ever be possible be-
tween the value Of gold and the value OF
silver. If you are bimetallic while Europe
only by name; verify, you would be
silver mono-metallic country, such as
India, and the monetary position Of the
United States against Europe would be
exactly the same MS is the present position
Of India against England-a position which
engenders heavy losses to both countries"
opp. AZ, 49). The following relates to
the Bland bill offered in the last
House:-"You begin by issuing in
Europe bonds to be paid for in silver
Nobody in Europe will buy these bonds
payable, interest and principal, in metal
which is not coined in Europe" Up. 3D.
In an explanatory note relating to our
bonds NJ. Cernuschi says: Europe has
taken them because there were no silver
dollars existing, and no silver dollars could
be coined. But if you begin to recon silver
dollars all is changed; silver dollars are
then at your disposal, and as the coinage of
silver is now prohibited in Europe, and
without monetary power, your bonds would
be unstable. Austria, which has always
issued silver bonds, was recently obliged to
issue gold bonds" Up. 75).
We have made these quotations chiefly for
the purpose of calling the attention OF the
Senators to the book which is magazine
of arguments against the Bland bill from the
ablest of the bi-metallists. The inevitable eff
feet of the bill would be to Danish gold,
make silver our only standard, depreciate
greenbacks to the level of silver, reduce our
foreign trade to barter and put an utter stop
to the sale of our bonds. Such being the
nature of this project, even from the point

A PLANTERS ENEMY.

While the farmer is the very
foundation stone of the prosperity Of
all other classes of society. furnish

from which every other industry
draws Its capacity for existence,
he is nevertheless the prey of all
those classes and industries who
seem to combine with thoughtless
ingratitude to kick down the ladd.

and consequence. 1t seems to be
conceived that the simplicity of
rural life has begotten Il rustic 10
norance of rights and values. and
that the farmer has "no rights that
commerce is bound to reflect"
Legislation leaves him unprotected,
and the customs of trade have built
so many traps to circumvent him,

he is, tiguratively, stripped naked.
and begins another season unbiased
BY any of that accumulation which
has gone to the enrichment Of so
many others.
This is especially the case with
those who engage in the cultivation
of the great staples-of those crops
which give character and conSe-
quence to nations: which set IN
motion the wheels of manufacture.
and which whiten seas with the
sails of a busy commerce. If the
career of a cotton planter is traced
through years transactions, some
thing of cOmmiseration attaches to

Instructions in the rivers.
Time and space forbid that we
should attempt to tell you what the
Board have tried to do IN the way
Of obtaining statistics, inducing I'M
migration, establishing q museum,
and many other matters. Suffice 1t
to say, they have attempted much
and accomplished something in
each direction: and one Of the
greatest Of their accomplishments
has been the renewed interest which
has been awakened throughout the
State in all the industries in which
our people are engaged.
The chief difficulty against which
the Board has had to contend con-
sists in the task of reaching the
great a of the people. No I'M
dertaking Of this kind can hope to
be entirely successful unless 4 cheap
and speedy communication can be
had with those for whose benefit we
are laboring. The reports OF our
correspondents, the formules and
analyses OF II chemist, and all
other information published by our
Commissioner fof the past season,
we're partly promulgated by the
courtesy of the political press Of the
State, and partly in small pamph-
lets, which, though SO few in NUM-
Der, probably one-tcnth of what
was actually received, yet cost a
very large proportion of Il very
small fund.
To meet this want, the Board de-
tcrmined to procure the establish
ment of an agricultural journal, en-
tirely disconnected with politics,
and exclusively devoted to the suc-
cess of the Boards work, through
the columns Of which their labor5
could be made known to the farm
crs and others. Like the Depart
ment itself, the paper viii cost the
public not one dollar IN the shape
Of taxes, the enterprising publish
ers agreeing to publish free AL mat
ter furnished them by the Board
and risk their remuneration III the
patronage of the people. Their
columns being thus placed under
our control we pledge ourselves that
every mean in our power shall be
exerted to make it worthy Of that
patronage. If the Department of
Agriculture shall prove capable Of
doing anything for the real good OF
North Carolina, these results will
be made known through these col
umns from time to time.
With many congratulations on
the success Of the year and the I'M
proved condition of our people, we
heartily commend this enterprise TO
their support.

To the People Of North Carolina

To the People of North Carolina
1t is known to YOU that IN ODE
dlence to a provision Of the new
constitution of our State, the recent
session of the Legislature passed a
bill establishing a Department Of
Agriculture. immigration and Sta
t%istics, and for the protection Of
sheep Husbandry. Early after the
adjournment of the General Assem-
bly, the Board of Agriculture was
organized. They elected a Com
missioner, Secretary and Treasurer,
opened an office and museum IN
this city and went earnestly to
work to carry out that wise provis-
ion of our organic law. Innumer-
able difficulties beset our effort by
reason of our i~nexperience and the
absence of hearty and %appreciative
cooperation on thepart ofmany Of
those whom we desired to benefit:
and yet we have met with a success
so far. which is most encouraging.
In the first place the Commission
er has established a corps of reliable
and intelligent correspondents in
every county IN the State, mostly
farmers, who give trustworthy re-
ports monthly of the state of the
crops, the weather, the live stock,
and all other kindred topics enab-
ling an intelligent man at any mo-
ment to make a fair estimate of our
natural condition.
In the second place, we have es-
tablished a laboratory at Chapel
Hill, and secured the services of a
skilled analytical chemist who has
been actively engaged in testing sci
entifically the various kinds of arti-
fetal fertilizers which have become
soextensiyely in use among our peo-
pie, and in the ignorant purchase
of which so much imposition has
been practiced and SO much money
wasted. Many of the more worth
less brm.,.s have been driven from
the market whilst the good have
been made still better, and the

grown in various parts of the State
to determine the quantity of sacha-
rine matter they will produce IN
this climate. with a view to the es-
Enlistment of sugar manufactures
if found to be favorable. He is
also ready and prepared, under the
Board, to analyse all soils, mineral,
and substance whatever, that may
be deemed of Importance to the IN
terests of agriculture.
I'm the third place, we have inau-
gurated the artificial propagation
of fish, with a view to restocking
our waters, once so full of food and
pleasure to II people. Too late
to make the most of the past season,
we yet may be considered successful
in progress made in this direction.
More than half a million of Young
shad were obtained and cast into
the Tar, Contentnea, Neuse, Cape
Fear, Yadkin and Catawba rivers:
and we have now a quarter of a
million of the eggs of the Califor-
MIA salmon in the process of hatch
ing in our establishment at Swan
nanoa Gap in the Blue Ridge.
These are to be distributed in the
cool waters of our river heads among
the mountains. Should their adap-
tatlOn to those streams be estab-
lished, the quantity IAN be multi
