 It may seem impossible to those not accus- toned to travelling. when I give an account briefly of my journeying this week. left New Haven on Monday, going to New Brit ain, thence to Northampton by way of Plain field, thence to Holyoks, Springfield and to New York that night; on the following day to New Brunswick, N. J., thence to Philadel- phia, on to Baltimore that evening; the next day to Washington, D. G., and back to New York that night and then home and to day going north again.
 Now have written you this for 8 reason, to show the present demand of business, for in all my score of years of travelling never saw business so driving as to-day. I can make as many sales now in single day as formerly in week, and over all the freight lines they find it impossible to transport the merchandise as fast as received. There are millions of bushels of grain on the way to New York at present that cannot be accommo- dated with storage, the elevators being full and all the reserve bins crowded and the mer- chants are building additional stores simply to temporarily hold the enormous receipts.

The Americnn TYranmx Of Pie.


 stCandy" and ''caramels' are institutions in this country. Candy tempers the bitterness of scandal, and notifies the exacerbation of political controversy. It even counteracts, to some extent, the deleterious influence of pie pronounced 'tpoy"-which is the transat- lantic incubus, and clings, with it's doughy legs over the shoulders of Columbia like an old man of the sea. Almost everything that behold in this wonderful country bears traces of improvement and reform-every thing except pie. The national manners have become softened-the men folk chew less, curse less; the newspapers are not half so scurrilous as our own the art idea is becom ing rapidly developed; culture Is made more and more manifest; and the one absorbing topic of conversation is no longer the almighty dollar-but to the tyranny of pie there is no surcease It is 8 fetish. It is Bohwani. It is the Mexican carnage god Huitchlipotchli, con- tinually demanding fresh victims. It is Mo loch. Men may come and men may go; the Grant "boom" may be succeeded by the Sherman ''boom;" but pie goes on forever. The tramp and the scallawag, in trousers of looped and widowed impetuously demand nickel cents wherewith to purchase it and the President of the Uni ted States, amid the chastened splendor of the White House, can enjoy no more festive fare They gave me pie at the Brevoort, and am now fresh from the consumption of pie at the Mount vernon, Baltimore. TWO more ar1sto- cratic hotels are not to be found on this con- tinent. bsttled strongly against this dys- pepsia-dealing pastry at first but mulatto waiter held me with his glittering eye, and I yielded as though I had been 8 two-years child. The worst of this dreadful pie-apple or cranberry, pumpkin, or ''squash"-is that it is so very nice. It is made delusively flat and thin, so that you can out it into conven- iently- sized triangular wedges which slip down easily. Pardon this Aggression; but it really forms as important factor in American civilization as the pot-au-feu does in France. There is no dish at home by which we nation ally stand or fall. The ''roast beef of Old England" sounds very well to the strains of Dan Godfrey's band at dinner at the Free mason's tavern; but sirloin of beef is 14 pence pound, and there are hundreds of thousands of laboring English people who never taste roast beef from years end to years end-save when they happen to get into jail or into the work-house at Christmastide.

The publishers have just received word that the music which Alfred Tennyson sent with ssThe City Child," and which is to appear in the February issue of St. Nicholas, is the con- position of his wife. The same post brings the lady's revised score, too late, however, to take the place of the music which had already been sent as an anonymous contribution, and which had already been printed in the issue for February. The corrected version will be given in the March number, with the words. All the world knows that Alfred Tennyson is a poet, but it will be news to many that his wife has the gift of musical composition.

Those who find fault because they cannot get for five dollars a year a newspaper which daily gives them the worlds news would be cured of their complaint by attempting to produce newspaper for that price, and es- peeially now when white paper is so high. The advance in the price of paper calls forth the following from the Washington Star sFew articles entering into every day use have felt the effect of prosperous times in an advance in price more quickly or in larger degree than printing paper. The inevitable result is already seen in many parts of the country in considerable advance in the sub scription rates as well as in the price of sim gle copies of both daily and weekly journals. The morning papers of St. Louis, for exam pie, have all increased their price from twsR- ty-fye to thirty cents per week, and there are indications that the principal papers of other large cities of the country will shortly follow suit. This step will be necessary everywhere, indeed, if there is much larger increase in the price of white paper"

The telephone business is increasing so much in England that the Government fears
 it will seriously affect the receipts of its tele- graph lines, and has taken measures in the courts to compel the telephone companies to take out licenses from the Postmaster General and pay for them, of course. The claim is that the Government, having spent millions to secure the control of the telegraph lines, ought not to suffer 8 loss of reve- nue from the introduction of the new process, which is. in substance, only a slightly varied form of the older device for instantaneous communication with distant points by means of electricity.

The returns of the corn crop of Illinois are astonishing. The land devoted to this grain amounted to 7,91s, 1881 acres; the average yield was nearly 80 bushels to the acre, giving total yield of 3O5, SIS, ,377 bushels, end the value of the crop was $97, ,4s3, ,O52. These figures are the highest ever returned, and, with the single exception F that the average value per bushel was slightly smaller, every item shows an increase. The acreage was larger, the average production per acre was the largest ever reported, and the gross yield and it's value exceeded those of every former year. The immense growth of a State so old as Illinois in this decade is shown by the fact that the corn grown in 1870 was under 13O million bushels. It may be added that the production of corn in Illinois in 1879 amount ed to 40 per cent. as much as the entire pro- ductiou of the whole country in 1870.
