There are ], 300 women employed in the
departments at Washington. Their sal
aries range from 5000 to:$ 800. But one
receives this higher amount, though many
receive 81, 200 and $1400. It's said there
is seldom resignation after appointment,
and but few have left their aplaces to mar
ry aud settle into domestic life. The
greatest experts in counting money and
detecting counterfeits, are among the lady
employees. The appointment of women to
these places was first made by Secretary
Chase in 1862, and the highest salary paid
was 5000. Their usefulness and sptness
for the work being demonstrated, they
have been able to command wages approx
imating the salaries of men who formerly
occupied these places. Few of the many
i'll things prophesied as the results Of such
an innovation. have occurred, and the
heads of departments would seriously OBJ
iect to making any change now. 1t is a
qualification to see new fields of usefulness
opening up to women of the land, more

ATHENS, GA, JANUARY, 1878.

TEE SOUTHERN CULTIVATOR
has been published continuously since
lS43-no other agricultural publication
in the Cotton States has such record
1t has not been sustained through To-
cal or State pride, but circulates uni
formly i'll all the States, from North
Carolina to Texas inclusive
1t has not been borne down by the
panic-has not grown weak with age,
but is still strong in the. estimation of
its patrons.
1t is an honest paper-does not seek
popularity by trying to sail with the
wind. but strives to present truths,
whether palatable or not. Offers no
chromos or other wonderful things, and
rejects at great pecuniary sacrifice, all
advertisements which are calculated to
deceioe or to fleece the people.
1t does not fill up its pages with pic
tures, which teach nothing, (cuts of which
can be had from advertisers for the
asking,) but gives full measure in every
number of sound, practical matter.
Its Inquiry Department is more ex-
tended and varied by far than that of
any other paper. Innnmerable ques-
tions touching every day farm matters,
are answered by farmer correspondents,
or by the Editor. ;"
The Editor, Ia student of Science all
his life,) gives as much of Science as is
consistent with practice, realizing thor
oughly as he does, that science pushed
too far. will do incalcnlable injury.
1t is admitted on all hands, that the
Cultivator is a thoroughly practical pa
per, and is not mere companion, got
ten up by one not familiar with the
practical workings of the farm.
1t embraces all departments of Farm
life-Stock- raising, Dairying, Orchard,
