FLOWING,

There was an impromptu blowing
match, or trial of plows. chiefly between
the Lufkin and the Syracuse chilled swivel
plows. The popularity of the latter is a
jointer or little pillow which turns up bit
of turf in advance of the plow, which, as
the sod turns over with the main furrow.
is turned again, making a scanned edge to
the furrow, so that no grass can come up
between the burrows. This pillow we Judge

For THE REcoR o.
TWO WAYS OF WORKING 1T.

Mr.. EDITOR :--In an article published
week before last, enumerated some of the
more important projects of undenable merit
which are agtated in our midst, all of which
have enthusiastic advocates, each of whom
appears to be wondering why in the world has
favorite scheme attracts no more public at
tention, and why it is not taken right hold of
aud Immediately pushed through to a tri-
umphant success. And | endeavored to show
their enormous cost when united, must be a
bar to the realization of any such expecta-
tions. Their equal merit, too, has much to
do with the case, for it is evident that il only
one of the number possessed any intrinsic
merit of its own, all the rest might be drop
ped, and every available means concentrated
upon that one. But it so happens that every
one mentioned, aud others besides, each has
claims of its own which cannot be ignored
claims which absolutely compel an expend-
iture-and consequently the income OF the
city is so divided up, that there is no large
sum to spare for any one particular object.
The question next arises are we then to
remain at complete stand still, and make no
future improvements or progress at all /?
Well, now the case is not nearly so desperate
as all that on the contrary, the future is full
of hope aud promise, and we have only to
:" possess our souls with patience" to see our
wishes realized. For there can be little doubt
that such improvements as really commend
themselves to the community as being worth
their cost, will at length be made.
Now there are two ways of going into this
business of improving our city, and be-
tween these our citizens will do well to be
careful in their choice. The first mode is
that SO plainly indicated by River " in your
last paper. In order to adopt this plan it
would first be necessary to get the consent o.
our people and the State Legislature to an
alteration of our charter allowing the common
council to run the city heavily into debt. For
the sake Of considering the plan let us sup
pose these obstacles removed, and such a law
passed. The idea is. to issue large amount
of bonds, do the work up 10 style with the
proceeds, and levy tax to pay the interest,
and portion over" The one merit of the
plan is obvious. It would give our citizens
at once the enjoyment of the result. But
then the result would not be all enjoyment,
for it would keep their noses to the grind
stone for a generation to come. And the
worst Of it is that such course once entered
upon there is scarcely any stopping place.
Scarcely is one expensive job done, than be-
fore it has begun to be paid for, another still
more magnificent scheme is sure to be propos-
ed, and another tax to pay interest, and a

portion over" becomes necessary the re-
suit usually is that at length interest can
scarcely be paid at al.
Interest is an Unsuitable monster. Il swal-
lows estates, corporations, railroads and ev-
eryihing else. It is just gulping down bodily
the entire Reading Railroad with ell Its valu-
able coal and timber handsome Of the most
magnificent properties ever owned by single
corporation--n not actually worth one
single penny to the stockholders. Our peo-
pie have already had fair experience in
paying taxes to pay interest, they know just
what kind of sport that is, and / think they
consider it the very poorest fun they ever
amused themselves with. No, believe that
our citizens are generally disposed to be salts
fed with the enjoyment of what they can
really afford, and are not willing to be kept al
ways struggling with load of debt. and con-
sequently better plan than the one proposed
must be found. So let us consider the second
mode.
1t is said that the eccentric and talented
John Randolph, of Roanoke, once sprang to
his feet upon the floor of Congress, and wav-
ing his bony hands above his head he shrieked
out, .sMr. Speaker Mr. Speaker / have
discovered the philosophers stone 1t is pay
as you go! Pay as you 90! John Ran
dolph was right, and here we have it. Our
true plan is to pay as We go. We will not go
SO fast, but we will go safely and easily and
as fast as it is needful The very tax which
River advises us to levy ITO pay inter-
est" will pay for doing the work, if it be
done gradually, and so the work win have to
be paid for but once instead of over and over
For instance, suppose by the first plan we
expend $780, 900 in Belgian blocks, sewerage'
&C., which could readily be done-why the
interest alone would be $4,000 per annum,
which is just about what was used last year,
and will be used again this year, in the ex-
tinguishment OF bounty bonds and interest
thereon. Now we have only to wait patient
ly for the paymentof our present city debt
and then the same sum with which we are
annually reducing it can be turned to i'm
provement purposes, if the people choose
without increasing the public burdens or Gre
ating single dollar of obligation. And
fortunately our city debt is now reduced tc
such point that we can see the "good time
coming"
Now which plan is the best one? The
methods of River are as the waters of Nj
agara, full of dash and daring, of fury and o.
foam, splendid in their display, but dangerous
and destructive to venture upon. Give to me-
the mider current, with the safety and secur
ity of our own calm and unruffied

THE FOURTH The Fourth Tor rather the
fifth was observed in Lambertville somewhat
better than usual, as Boozer's Cadets-th
military company Of boys-paraded through
our streets and made a nice display. They
are to be congratulated on their patriotism
The display of flags and bunting was good,
and the noise of guns and fire crackers was as
bad as usual. The early morning was made
uncomfortable by the noise, which indeed,
commenced before Sunday had closed. Sew
eral parties went out on pic-nics and came
home in drenched condition. The splendid
rain of the afternoon and evening fifty closed
the day, making the ground to rejoice with
welcome draughts of water and with promise
of better harvests.

Clothing.

There is in Philadelphia
a clearinghouse that began
a good many years ago to-
do a peculiar business. 1t
marked goods in plain fig
ures, and described them in
plain letters its prices were
absolute, it's descriptions
were true. People had full
knowledge of what they
were buying there, and yet
if afterward they were sorry
they had bought, they could
go back the next day and
exchange for something else,
or, if they liked, get their
money back. It was a safe
place to get clothes it was
a safe place to leave money.
People liked that house.
1t grew, and grew, and
grew, until it became a
great house. To-day it is
the largest clearinghouse
anywhere and it keeps up
the old practices no secrets
about what its clothes are
made of, one price, and
the money back if the buy
err wants it. Of course, it
uses all grades of cloths
that are worth using, and
makes all grades of cloth
ing that are worth making;
for it serves all sorts of peo-
pie.
Those at all familiar with
Philadelphia already know
that we are speaking of
OAK HALL, the original of
the WANAMAKER STORES.
There has been great inn
provement in ready-made
clothing in nineteen years
and OAK HALL has taken
the lead equally in econ
omy, reliability, and rapid
ity of production /; in the
quality of finished work ;
and in the development of
a method of business hav-
ing for its first object the
satisfaction of customers.
1t is worth your while to
know that you, whoever and
wherever you are, can get
your clothing to better adj
vantage there than any
where else. If too far
away to go, write. You
will receive in reply samples
of cloths, and prices of
ready-made suits from them,
with a diagram and instruc-
tons for measuring. The
rest is plain.
