This analysis, if correct, is one of
the most important facts this useless
appendage 10 the government has
ever ascertained. II now only re-
mains to perfect the processes by
which true sugar has been obtained
from sorghum in the banana regions
OF this country, and then 90 on to
supply the demand, which amounts
TO fully $200,000,000 year. This
opens up new avenue to American
agriculture almost boundless in ex-
tent, and fully equal to the produc-
ton of bread among us. The new
enterprise will demand technical
skill and intelligence of high grade,
and is worthy of general attention
ana patient perseverance until COM
plcte success is commanded. T.
THE FARMER AND NATIONAL
BANKs.-The editor of the Southern
Planter and Farmer commenting on
the letter of Hon. A. ii. ii. Stuart,
says: "As things stand now, and
as they have stood ever since the war,
the farmer, taking the general run
of the calling, has practically no
showing whatever to borrow money.
The only basis of credit he has-to-
wit, his land, cannot be used in bank.
The National Bank law absolutely
prohibits the lending of any money
To him on his land. What has he to
10 TO command any money at all !
Through the pledge of his crops, he
gets merchants acceptance. For
this he pays 2 l-2 per cent, and for
the money ON this acceptance, 9 and
often more per cent. Everybody
knows that he can't last long on a
basis like this; the present condition
of the farming interest in this State
would seem to show that he has not
made much at 1t. With money at a
reasonable rate of interest he would
be able TO make his land available,
and both live and pay his taxes; in
the absence of this help, he must do
the best he can, which is, as rule,

HOUSEHOLD AND FARM.

The intensity of the late drouth in
Austria may be judged by the sim
pie calculation made by the inspector
of stock that in New South Wales
alone 100000 sheep were lost last
year from the effects of the dry
weather. At least another million
must be added to account for the loss
of this year, and for the loss suffered
by small holders and others who
were for various reasons omitted
from the returns. Thus we have s.
100000 sheep, valued at $l1 100000
at least, destroyed directly or indi-
rectly, through the lack of pasturage
consequent on the drouth.
BARLEy.--Mr. William j. Fowler
of Monroe county, N. Y, who is
close observer of crops. as well as
good farmer, says: "The high price
of barley this fall is cheeringto farm
ers who happen to have any. The
cause of the failure is in the ravages
of the Hessian fly, though when ]
mentioned this few weeks ago,
did not suspect how general this
complaint was. 1t affects quality
quite as much as quantity. Buyers
tell me that the best barly this year
is little better than what was re-
jected last year. Very little will
hold out full Weights pounds per
bushel. Curiously enough the six
rowed barley is generally best this
year, though much of that is poor
enough. In ordinary seasons, the
two-rowed variety is usually plump
est. The reason why it is worse
eaten this year is, that the two-row-
ed requires Ion 'er season, and thus
gives the fly more time to work.
For this reason very little two-rowed
will be sown another year in this vi
cinity. The best way seems to be to
sow early ON rich land, at least two
and a half bushels per acre, and make
SO quick and strong a growth that
the fly cannot damage it. Those
who can do this will be apt to get
a good price for their barley next
year as well rs this. If the TIessian
fly is to contest the crop with barley
as well as wheat growers, it will
need good farming as well as good
land to grow this crop. Those
whose soil is too poor for the largest

GREENBAcKs FOR BoXDs.



General Butler assumes that the bulk OF
the bonded debt OF the United States was
purchased with greenbacks when nearly
81 in greenbacks could be purchased forSl
in coin. We have no idea that n reitera-
ton of the irreiulable facts, which go to
prove that his statement is falsehood,
will have the least influence with General
Butler, but We at the same time recognize
the necessity Of correcting his lies about
this subject as often as he has the shame
les audacity to repeat them.
Firstly an net OF Congress, $40 bonds
could not he purchased for greenbacks,
dollar for dollar, from July !, 1868, until
the issue OF bonds provided by the act OF
July 80, 1864. During the year the average
vaIne OF greenbaCks in gold was 50 cents,
and during the year 1868 the price aver
aged 6S cents, so that during that period
no bonds could have been purchased for 80
or % cents on dollar.
Second-By the act OF June 80, 1861,
800, 100000 OF $40 bonds were authorized,
and during the next six months only Sl25,-
sUU,UUU were lsSucuj so tllht 1Aut nhvuh'
was the largest quantity which could have
been purchased when the gold premium
was the highest. At the same time that
these bonds were upon the market the
New York quotations Of 5-90s raiG%d from
lO4 to lis. 1t is, moreover, o well.knOwn
fact that capitalists were very Ghary about
taking the $50 issues OF June 80, 1864.
: Thirti-The other $40 bonds issued were
known as "consols," and were authorized
to retire the compound interest notes lS2l7,
OOO,OOO) and the 7-i0 currency bonds
CsSOO, ,O6O,OOO) which were issued during
the last months OF the war and at its close
to get money to pay the army when
being discharged, or to be exchanged for
other liabilities Of the government to indi'
yiduals. At no time were these $50 cur
roncy bonds exchanged for $40 or per
ccntilm- bonds when greenbacks were
worth less than 20 cents, and many OF them
were exchanged when the difference be-
tween grccnbacks and gold was much

presses and saws. Since that humble day
the Hoes have became famous Us the con-
slant inventors OF new and improved
methods Of printing by steam, and to-day
their grand presses are without rivals in
the world, inthe perfection Of their mech.
anism and espeed and power with which
they accomplish their work.
No men could be more jealous Of their
established reputation than the Hoes As
" curious illustration OF the minute and
painstaking care by which they have at
tanned fame and wealth, we may note the
fact that every press built by them is sub
jected, after it is completed and pronounced
perfect by thciraccomplished workmen, to
the separate and elaborate personal in
sppctiOn and test, under motion, OF differ
cnt members OF the firm, TO the end that It
may he seen whether there il so much US
hairs breadth Of imperfection in It's work
ing, and II, percfancc, there is the slightest
irrcgularity it is not allowed to leave their
establishment, but is once ordered to be
put in hand again for complete perfection.
Nv such rigorous and conscientious dis
ripline have they made the name Of Hoe
Il synonym of honest, responsible and
pcrfectworkinnnship, wherever is found
imprinted on any piece Of machinery.
We are glad to have an opportunity TO
bear our testimony to the-agreeablc im-
preston thus made upon us by recent
visit to the establishment OF the Hoes, and
by their manner OF doing business as re-
vcaled 10 usthrough negotiations for one
OF their presses. Their great success as
business men is al example that may
well be impressed on the minds of all
business men, old a..dyoung, and especial
ly the young,viz-thatt the easiest, speediest
and safest road to success In life is 10 do
good work and deal squarely.

An Adjudication Important to PhysI

ctHns.
BRIDGEroRT, o., Aug. 23l, 1878.
Correspondence Of the TntcllIgcnccr.
The case OF DR.. II. Capehart vs. the
Trustees Of Pcase Towship, was tried yes
tcrday before Squire Howell, and n jury
consisting OF John s. Bates, John Young,
John Amerinc, Joseph Chandler and Thos,
G. Culbertson. Wm. Duncan appearing
for the plaintiff, and l.. j. c. Drencn, for
the defendants, and resulting in verdict
for the Trustees. This suit was brought
to recover from the township, a bill OF
Sl42, for professional service rendered
Alex. Lynn, who had his skull fractured
by John Klein last spring. 1t appears from
the evidence that DR.. Capehar, in cOnjun-
ction with DR.. Williams, was called, dressed
the wounds, and unknown to the patient,
notified Mr.. l.. G. Sedwick, one OF the
trustees, that he had performed the service
and that 81 shall charge the same and such
other service as I may render to Alex.
Lynn, to Pease Township" 1t also ap-
pears that Sedwick, after investigating the
case, rs required by law Immediately sent
the Doctor the following written notice:
"In reply to your notice of April 24th,
1878, would say that we are satisfied Alex.
Lynn is not Il pauper, and, so far as the
Trustees are concerned, We do not desire
you to attend him professionally; that le-
gally We cannot and will not pay for any
service or relief rendered him." Yet, not
withstanding this notice, which was pro-
duced and submitted in evidence, he con-
tined his service and demanded payment
for the whole service; when the law eX.
prcssly declares, "Thc Trustees, or one OF
them may, in any case, at any time, order
the discontinuance OF such services or re-
lief, and they shall not be liable for any
services or relief thereafter rendered"
The bill was rejected on the ground TINT
Lynn, being possessed OF property, was
not paupcr, neither was he in IA desti-
tute condition requiring public relief or
the services Of physician" at public cx-
pcnse, and il was proven by reliable wit
nesses that Lynn had property upon which
he could at any time have secured loan
OF four or five hundred dollars. twas al.
80 shown in evidence that no other relief
was asked for in this case, nor was any
rendered and had he been in con-
dition requiring "public relief" the
Township Physician would have been
sent to take charge Of the case, but
being possessed of property he had 4
right 10 employ whom he pleased, and
they had right also to lOOok to him for
their pay. II the Trustees were to under
take the payment OF bills simply because a
physician saw proper, to try, to throw them
onto the county, there is no telling how
far it would run or how much money II
would require to pay these bills, which are
growing more numerous and OF larger pro-
portions. 1t is evident that the physicians
Of this township have IN idea that they are
q favored few in the eyes Of the law, and
that their bills should not be called in
question, until the taxpayers are demand,
ing that their rights shall be protected and
these cases taken TO the courts for adiudl'
cation. JASPER.

era. Over production by machinery had
contributed to the depression in business
by producing more than the demand for,
and prices fell accordingly. He did not
think the introduction OF machinery had
induced this speculative cru and the col
lapse which followed It. y,
Mr.. Adams spoke OF railroad construc-
tiOn, and said that excessive construction
led to the present depression in business.
4 railroad manager had nothing TO do with
the construction Of railroads, and so had
nothing to do with causing the depression.
He thought railroad managers had TO a
great extent relieved or tried to relieve
this depression. He did not see how legis-
lntiOn Gould help or remedy the present
depression. The railroad system was en-
gagged in ruinous competition, and this led
to two p0ints-iirst, violent fluctuations;
SECOND, determinations against localities.
He thought this could only be relnedied by
cQualizing rates and fare. The difficulty in
legislation in railroad matters has been
so far that they have applied remedy be-
fore knowing the disease. He doubted Tilt
would be advantageous to have the federal
government 10 apply remedies to the rail
road troubles. llcthought the manner in
which the English railroads were run
would soon be adopted in this country,
that manner was, "hands OFF," Let rail-
roahs take care OF themselves and CONSOLE
date in any measure they may desire. The
federal government could not supervise
the railroad rates, at least it could not be
done at, present. The results OF watering
stock the witness held was not to increase
rates, but he thought it tended to lower
them. lie was OF the opinion that the
federal supervision OF railroads might
be cautiously begun in short time. II
any change had taken place in the power OF
the railroads over legislation within the
past few years, he thought it had slightly
diminished. lie was not prepared to say
that the establishment OF government
commission 10 supervise railroads would
alleviate depression in labor. He did not
think the English Parliamentary Commits
sions had done any good, although they
had accumulated tons OF reports on rail
road systems. He did not suppose it
would be feasible for the government to
purchase railroads or become possessed OF
them. The witness stated that he believed
MIR. Vanderbilt would have done better to
have only attended to local business and
left through business TO take care OF itself.

Senator Henry G. Davis, Of West Virgin

seven are in in operation. OF the seven
furnaces in the town Of Jackson but one is

sold 42O tons OF pig iron 10 be'delivered in

State Commissioner OF Labor Statistics,
states as a result Of his observations dur

furnace men and ore diggcrs get 81 a day
nominally for their labor, but as this is IN
scrip payable in goods at the companies
stores, the actual pay Is but from sixty to
seventy cents n day"

Nail Mill has stopped work for couple OF
weeks. In the meantime, they will put a
mud drum on their boilers and do sundry
other items of rcpair.-The Etna Iron
Works has succeeded in ellccting settle
mcnt with its creditors, II something un-
heard Of doesn't intervene to upset the
calculations. This fortunate result Is
highly gratifying to this region around.
They have begun cOking coal at Sher-

coke u good trial. There is very little
doubt but that the experiments will be
completely successful. The furnace has
used sO,nG Of the raw coal from the Sheri-

a matter Of Importance when our furnaces
use coke made from native coal.
