1t will be noticed, in connection
with the above figures, that the
sales OF public lands for settle
ment began to fall off during the
fiscal year 1878, which ended in June, be-
fore the panic in September following;
that the sales continued to decline dur
ing the fiscal years that the business de-
preston prevailed, reaching the lowest
figure in 1877: that during the fiscal
year 1878, six months prior to specie re-
sumption, and nearly year before the
general revival of business, the sales were
double those of 1877 and that during
the past three years and half of
business activity the sales have in
creased at rapid rate. and
were more than three times as large
in 1881 as in 1877. These comparisons
would seem to indicate that not the least
of the infiences which brought about the
conditions favorable to specie payments
and which brought business prosperity to
the country was the rapid development
of the agricultural resources of the
country. The large crop of wheat. etc..
which was sold in Europe in 1878, brought
to the farmers large return of money,
which, in turn, was expended for the
products of the manufacturer OF the
East.
That these large sales of land are not
mainly due to the increase of immigra-
ton during the past few years, the fol-
lowing statistics will show:
Years Immigrants. Years. Immigrants.
IA $50 1880. .457 ,257
1878. 13S, 1859 1SS1.......... Cos, 900
1879. III $50 1st or. 1882. III, SOB
The sales of land were more than dou
bled in 1878 compared with 1877, but in
1878 the immigration was the smallest in
many years In 1879, when the land sales
were five and quarter million acres in
excess of those of 1877, the number Of i'm
migrants was only Ill., 1926. Thus it ap-
pears that this wonderful movement of
settlers to the public lands had been 60
ing on three years before the tide of i'm
migrat ion set in anew. These facts
would indicate that the settlers of the
public lands are largely natives Of the
country, or those who have not recently
become residents of the United States.
Doubtless the movement in the begin
ming was caused by lack of employ
ment in the older portions of the coun-
try during the protracted period of bust
ness depression.
The following statistics show the di
rection which the movement to the public
lands is and has been taking during the
poct +braa fiscal wears.

The Old Brayer.

Some weeks since citizen of Greenfield,
Michigan, traded a mule TO his nelghbor for
horse, warranting the ola brayer to be
sound in wind and limb. No, ten days
had elapsed when the mule brayed his last
bray and kicked his last kick. Inc former
owner refused to be held responsible, and
the result was lawsuit in Justice Alley.
When the plaintiff. had told Whist he knew

Umbrellas.

In the seventeenth century an UNI
brella generally measured about four
feet in height and nearly four yards in
circumference. ltweighed at least four
pounds, and cost a sum varying from
two pounds TO three pounds, and even
more. 1t was then made of leather,
oiled silk, or glazed paper, and consti-
tuted an important article Of property,
handed down as family heirloom
from generation to generation. 1t was
in 1880 that the Paris manufacturers
began to reduce its size, and to make it
of lighter and less expensive materials.
Its color had then by no means be-
come restricted to the hues row in fash
ion, and,tho good people of the reyolu-
tionary times, as well as under the Di-
rectory, were free TO indulge according
to their fancy, in such colors as yellow,
rose, blue, and even apple-green

Like New York, Charleston is built
upon a narrow strip of land, surround
ed on all sides by deep water, and its
possible extent OF wharfage is practic-
ally unlimited. The sea is but five
miles away and the only thing that
places the city at a disadvantage, com
pared with Northern ports, is the bar
at the mouth of the harbor, which lin
its access to vessels drawing not over
seventeen feet Of water The two Jet
ties which are being constructed by the
Government are expected to remove
this difficulty. The north jetty, which
will be 1000 feet in length, has been
completed to height OF about seven
feet for two-thirdS of the distance,
and the south jctty, which will
have total length OF 5000 feet,
has received the first course of
stone for about one third that
distance. The work is under the
direction of Captain }, G. Post, United
States army, who is hopeful that when
completed twill give u channel at least
twenty-siX feet across the bar. So far,
over 100000 has been appropriated
for the work, and if no delay occurs in
future appropriations the entire work
can be finished within the next two
years. and at Il cost of something less
than the original estimate OF 81, 100000.
