"The wealth of nation IL in its soil"
Is an axiom almost forgotten, yet its
truth is well illustrated by the Lancaster
elo Era in an article directing attention
to the fact that amid the financial ruin
that has overtaken half the industries of
the country, the American farmers have
net the tide Of misfortune bravely, and,
holding fast to their broad and fertile
acres, are to-day the strongest men, AZ q
class, in the country. The Neao Era
adds: "This fact teaches lesson hat de-
serves to bo remembered. We hear
much of overcrowding the liberal profess
sions, and of the ruinious competition
that has invaded almost every depart
ment of trade. But who has ever pre-
tended there were too many farmers /?
There cannot be too many. IL is because
there are not enough we hear of so much
distress everywhere. There has always
been market for his products, either at
home or abroad. Prices go down occa-
siOnally, II is true. and he may not make
much money, but he nevertheless lives a
life of independence, comfort and plen-
ty, and when the momentary depression
in prices gives way his old-time pros

THE LOUISIANA POLITICAL LEVY.

John Sherman, Fraudulent Secretary
OF The Treasury, loves fraud apparently
for its own sake. He goes out OF his wav
in his annual report to bestow his appro-
val upon the famous Fur Seal Ring,
whose original lease of the Island of St.
raul was barefaced and ir:pudent fraud
"a fraud upon the public and fraud
upon the higher bidder, who was legally
entitled to the contract. He insists that
the Ring has observed the terms of its
fraudulent contract, and is therefore euti-
tied to continued favor This statement
Is wholly ami we think deliberately false.
The oillcial reports of the Ring itself show
that it has paid no attention whatever he
yond what at the time was agreeable and
profitable, either to the act of Congress or
to the terms of the lease. But why has
John Sherman sought this occasion to ex-
alt the Ring with Mr.. Richardson's fraud
ulent lease in its possession? Is some new
swindle on foot? Are the islands, and
the seals, and the Aleuts to be granted
to the Ring in perpetuity, and without
any comp 'nsa ion at all to the public

Too MUCH.-We find that in stating
the estimate of the annual cost of the
t,co policemen which were added to the
force by the City Council on Thursday
night, we put it at $1,000. This is too
much. The actual cost, we are told, is
$3.50 for each man, $1,000. Now, we
hope the Council will save much more
than this by contracting for lighting the
city alone. Twice this could have been
saved by contracting for cleaning the
streets if the Republican Council would
have done so. But their caucus deter
min ed otherwise.

WASHINGTON, Dec. q.
There Is something refreshingly cool
and impudent in the clamor which some
of the Republican politicians are making
| over the use of the small onion skin
tickets, called "little jokers," in some of
the North Carolina counties at the recent
election. The Southern Republicans,
who now cry about these instruments of
fraud, were the inventors of them, and
used them with great effect in the cleo
ton of 1876. In fact, one of them, a
Florida Republican, who now holds a
place in the Treasury Department here,
is reported to have boasted that the sew

inspectors of election chad to leave the
State, to use his own woris-that is to
say, he was threatened with an indict-
ment and trial for this fraud; and he ac-
cordingly fled and came to Washington,
where he obtaine an appointment in
the Treasury Department, which he still
holds, or did until very recently. After
he left the State he was indicted and was
summoned to 90 to Florida TO stand n
trial, but he preferred 10 remain in the

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.


The richness of soils is increased by the adj
dtion of material, when such materials as
contain the principles of vegetable food, l. e.
fertilizers, are found in them, and this
whether added by human industry or depos-
tied by plants, animals water atmosphere,
etc
Hence the waste Of any of these elements OF
fertility will cause direct loss.
Richness may likewise increase by extrac-
ton, that is, the extraction Of such noxious
or inert materials as are contained In the
soil.
Again, richness diminshes by the extraction
of materials, when from the soil are produced
crops that absorb from it its components
without compensation; richness will further
decrease by the direct action OF several
causes which extract those materials indie
pendentIy Of vegetation; thus, heat will con-
sumo its organic materials, and washing will
sweep away its fertilizing elements.
Farmers who bear in mind these facts and
act properly and inteligently upon them will
find that there is no truth at all in the say wing
that a soil is exhausted.
COMFORT FOR STOCK.
/ Any and everything that detracts from or
prevents the comfort OF stock hinderS their
thrift, whether it be hunger, thirst, cold, heat,
light, darkness, wet impure air, hard bed
ding, filth, vermin, singing insects, frightfuI
noises, loss Of young or OF old companions,
or disease and whatever binders their
thrift is a pecuniary loss to their owners
Human sympathy applied to the creation OF
animal comfort in such cases is always re-
warded with dollars and cents.
WHY SHOULD PLANTERS READ?
Every one who reads can learn to think,
Judge and act discreetly, and knows that tbs
good he gets is more than the cost he is sub
jected to for agricultural reading material,
and he who has read knows how to select
Those who think otherwise do not read, anG
therefore know not what they condemn.
AIMS OF PLANTERS CLUBS.
Although planters, as class, comprise 6

larger number than any other calling in this
State. yet whenever any public matter Of es-
pecial interest to Themselves presents itself,
they are almost always obliged to go to one
OF another class or profession In order to get
their claims advocated. 1t is absurd that they
should have to call to their assistance men
who cannot fully know or appreciate the ne
cessity OF special Legislation in regard to this
or that planting interest. Ii our planters
were trained to do such work for themselves
and If they combined their efforts in assOcia-
tons or clubs, they would not so frequently
find themselves omitted in the fostering at
tentions aud liberalites OF the State. Their
aim should be to assume their proper posi-
ton as the representatives OF the most i'm
portant interest of the State, and to exert
their proportionate influence, civil and po-
lltical.
WHAT IS PLANT FOOD?
All that plants consume in their growth is
plant food; but there are also other things
which cause them to grow There may be
sufficient nutriment within the reach OF the
roOtlets, but it may be in such a state or con-
dition that it cannot be appropriated, just as
a bushel of corn might stand within the reach
OF starving man having no teeth, and he be
not benefited by it. A proper proportion Of
acids, alcal etc, must be in the soil to nOd-
fy and render palatable the mineral and
vegetable matter therein which constitutes
the nourishment OF plants. To this end the
soil must in sense breathe. 1t must be
kept light and porous, that the atmosphere
chemical changes necessary for the best sub
sistence of the plants and to facilitate the
absorption of the falling rains for a similar

THE PRESIDENTIAL FRAUD.
The Movement Against Hayes Going
Bravely On Letter From
Mont gOmery Blair.
WASHINGTON, April "a, 1873.

Dear Sir The work goes bravely on,
thanks to the honest utterances of the Har-
ford Democrat and other papers of its class.
These presses exert a great and wholesome
which has 50 generally upheld "the fraud, y
has not the slightest influence. Mr. Smalley,
late of the staff of the New York Tribune, now
editor of the Cleveland Herald, gives the rea-
son for this in the fact, he states, that the
metropolitan journals never utter an honest
opinion on any subject, but simply support the
business interests or political projects of their
principal stockholders, and Mr.. Smalley sup
ports his statement byreporting the speech of
q managing editor to the City Press Club, in
are all hirelings, confesses himself to be a
hireling; that they never write a line they be-
lieve, and if they did it would be suppressed,
Could there be better proof of MI. Smalley's
statement than the course of the city press
in regard to 1.-THE fraud?" There Is not an
States who does not know that Hayes is a
fraud, and no thoughtful man can fail to see
that the liberation of such a fraud, when we
can peacefully get rid of him, is destructive
of society. 1t defes the moral sense of man
kind. The adulation and show Of respect
made to such fraud confounds truth with
falsehood. Who can believe the religion of
those who sanction such a crime other than
a mockery? 1t destroys also the sacredness
of property. Can the respectable classes OBJ
whilst their organs uphold the theft of the
Presidency and diScountenance the honest
efforts of the people to reclaim the office for
the man lawfully elected?
No people are so blind to their own interests
as those whose moral sense is so blunted
They do not see that in supporting the Hayes
fraud they are letting loose the mob to wreSt
their property from them, and when COM
munsm rears it's hldeous head simultaneous
ly with the hideous fraud from which it
sprung, they are so stupid as to call on the
fraud to put it down. 1t is the honest and
conscientious workmen, whom these city
nabobs despise, upon whom alone we can re-
ly to save them from the monsters OF their
own creation. Yours truly,
