American OverWOrk.

One need not dwell upon the desirA
ableness Of calm and seclusion for: the
production of the best literature. With
individuals, as with Nations, stirring
periods Of action are not favorable to
idealistic art. There is much unfair
ness, however, in the blame to which
public men in this country are subjected
for their overwork. This is rather q
matter Of necessity than Of choice.
People in the old world largely inherit
their means and methods from their for
bears; new men, even there, often have
the habit Of overwork fixed upon them
by the time their ootholds are secured.
But the statesmen and thinkers of Eu-
rope start with assured incomes more
commonly than do our own, and are
not forced to earn their bread as they
go along. Our Wilson's, Eyartses,
Curtises have had to consider first the
means Of living, and to be statesmen or
writers ID addition. Our Eastern Brah-
minis, happily, have had for the most
part resources which they have EN-
larged by the help of ,such gentle, schol-
arly pursuits as the service Of a univer-
sity affords. They have shown them
selves quite willing 70 indulge . spirit
Of restfulnsss and calm. s. long as
Americans who do not inherit estates

minds the thought Of its effect upon an

Thus, while the population in some of
the large manufacturing towns in En-
gland has increased at the rate of thirty
and thirty-seven per cent, eight per
cent. is the highest rate of increase in
the agricultural districts, and in three
counties the population has actually de-
creased.
But we find that here, as in England,
there is decided tendency to leave the
millions of acres Of magnificent lands
unoccupied, and seek the large towns.
Population seems to seek life for the
brain, and such excitements as our cities
afford prove too attractive for the rural.

The Attractions sf Cities.

The November number Of the Prince
ton laevie,0 contains an article BY Mr..
Robett ,P. Porter, Of the Inter- Ocean,
n which Is pointed out the danger
which awaits this country If the flow 81
population to the large cities IS not
checked, and more attention is not
paid to the cultivation Of the soil. The
writer presents figures to show that no
country in the world ever exhibited
such regular and enormous rate Of
increase in the population as the United
States does from 1900 to 1860. In En-
gland the rate increased from six per
cent in 1870 to sixteen per cent. in
1921, when distinct and continuous
decrease is struck. The rate Of sixteen
per cent. diminishes uccessively to fif-
teen, fourteen, thirteen and twelve, un-
til it seems to have approached q sta
tionary condition at twelve. In regardto
ourselves, the census reports show an av-
erage rate of increase OF thirty three per
cent. every ten years. But it should
be borne in mind that an increase Of
population may be deemed solid good
or dreadful evil, according to the cir
cumstances of the country in which it
occurs. If a commensurate increase of
food and raiment can be produced by
agriculture and by manufacture, an ac-
cession of consumers in the home mar
ket cannot but be beneficial to all par
ties; and the increase of population in
such case may be deemed equally desir-
able in itself, and conducive to Nation
al strength land National prosperity.
In no instance is this better illustrated
than in England, where the large man
ufacturing towns have grown while ag-
riculture has been neglected
Ten years ago, Mr.. Bright made
series OF vigorous speeches, embodying
advice and counsel to the working.
classes of Great Britain. He pointed
out to them the mistake they were COM
hitting in crowding into cities and en-
gaging in mechanical and manufactur.
ing work, to the neglect of agriculture.
The burden of the advice was, $50
back to the land" He pointed out how
much of the land of Great Britain and
Ireland was still lying waste, held as
deer-forests and grouse-moors, which,
If cultivated, would maintain directly
many thousands, and the produce of
which would cheaper the necessaries
Of life to many thousands more who
worked in cities. In England, the pop
ulation is divided into the distinct agrri-
cultural and manufacturing massesr-
contrasted, as they are, in every point
of nature, history and social condition.
To show that Mr.. Bright was right, and
that, had his advice been followed,
much of the forcing of trade and over
production of manufactures which have
resulted in the present commercial
etagnation and disorganization of the
labor market might have been avoided,
the writer compares the condition of
these two great portions by means Of
the rates OF progress by some of the most
purely agricultural and most purely
manufacturing counties:
AGRYOIYrTIYE2 r.

No doubt the census of 188Owill show
a still larger proportion. Ip 1850 less
than one-quarter of the population OF
the United States lived in cities; now
the towns contain upward of one-third.
Mr.. Porter thinks the change may be to
some extent accounted for in the change
of the industrial condition of the West,
but in general the immense demand for
manufactured products which followed
the war drafted the country population
into the towns, there to exchange the
quiet village for the crowded, squalid
alleys, the busy workshop, or the
gloomy mine. But it must not be for
gotten that in the United States there is
0 happy medium between the large
cities and their toiling thousands and
the villages with their half-dozen stores
and school-house each. We allude to the
manufacturing cities of from 10000 to
$4,000 inhabitants, which are growing
up so rapidly, especially in our Western
States. Lots are cheap in such towns,
and the careful, Industrious mechanic
soon has home of his own, and be be-
comes identified with the city in which
he lives. CHICAGO Inter- Ocean.

The remark is frequently made that one proof
OF the degeneracy Of this age is afforded In the
numerous reports contained In the daily papers
OF crimes. The man who is too far advanced In
life TO look forward 10 anything this side the
grave, loves TO think and speak OF the good old
times Then he was young, nearly everybody
was honest, and crime was rarity. His proof.
which he considers unanswerable, Is reference
to the columns OF the daily papers, and It is
true. very large proportion OF the space daily
devoted TO Geographic news Is filed with muir
ders, suicides, rohberies and ell sorts OF crimes
many OF them shocking, indeed. But this is
really no evidence that the people are any worse
now than years ago. In the first place the facil-
