So much attention is directed. to the
Importance OF the foreign commerce 81
the Republic, especially as regards the
European demand for our food products,
that We deem it necessary to remind our
readers once more that of all the pro-
ductions OF American agriculture, fully
ninety live per cent. is consumed at
home, and that this fact Has, been Off
cially demonstrated in the. regular re-
ports issued by the United States ,Bn-
reau Of Statistics at Washington. There
appears to be.a general impression that
the volume Of our agricultural products
is SO enormous and Increases SO rapidly
as to render an expanding foreign
market absolutely indispensable to our
domestic prosperity. Now while we
have no disposition to deny or to un-
sderval1e the influence and Importance
.Qf foreign commerce in American prod
ucts, we really attach more consequence
to thessteady progress of civilization
westward between the Mississippi and
the Pacific. Ocean than we do to the
price of American products in London.
A quarter of a century ago Minnesota
had to import wheat from other States
for the food-supply Of her people. Now
she produces enough to supply all her
own inhabitants and has an annual sur
plus of many millions of bushels for
other States. The great market for
the teeming products of the West is.

The Costly Search After Gold and silver

As everyone knows, the sComstock
mines at the present, time are all in
"borrasca, or poor ground, and not
one OF them is to day paying dollar in
dividends. On the contrary. they are
all 1evying assessments, and are spend
ing enormous sums in prospecting and
driving after that will '-the-wisp boz
nanza that is forever being predicted as
just a. little beyond the levels of every
mine on the lode. -
The Yellow Jacket, that at one time
had a famous bonanza which paid in
dividends 81, 184, 900 previous to 1871,
and which has been steady assessor
for the greater part of the past ten
years, has prospected the lode to a
depth exceeding 5000 feet, by shaft
which. on the 1st of July last, had cost,
without interest, $1,674, 2O3.5 So, and is
yet without ore. The assessments of
this company have already amounted to
". .O96, 900, and during the year ending
June 30, 1881, the expenditures at the
mines were S549, ,740, of which S27, ,23O
were on account of and for driving 743
feet OF the Sutro Tunnel. During the
year 1.O55 feet of drifts were run. and
$50 feet of diamond drill prospect holes.
which was all the effective prospecting
done for over half a million dollars. The,
greater part of the outlaywas for pumping
nd repairs. The superintendent saws 7

made with the Sutro Tunnel, to June

Flying Childers.-.A Race. Horse Whose
Stride Was Twenty-Five Feet.

The legends about the horse in cues
ton are SO well known thatit is scarcel,
necessary SO enlarge upon them. t
| his stride, like that of Eclipse when ex
tended, covered twenty-five feet. it wa.
eight inches longer than the strides d
the Flying Dutchman and Voltieeul
when they were struggling head to head
opposite York Strand in 1851. The
two horses, while the contest was at its
height, reached over exactly the same
space ofground, and thatspace was TWEEN
ty-four feet four inches. The portraits
Of Flying Childers commonly represent
him with his hind legs stretching alb
normally FAR back. If, by some excep-
tional leverage power, he could bring
his hind legs perfectly under him when
he galloped. his length of stride and
his superior speed would be not un-
reasonably accounted for. He won two
matches and received some forfeits at
Newmarket, but his greatest achieve
ments were not performed IN public.
He is said to have given Fox, almost the
best runner of his time, twelve pounds,
and to have beaten him quarter of a
mile, over the Beacon Course, which is
very much as if q dark three-vear-old

Doncaster, and reached the goal before
Robert had come to what is called the

Devonshire was in the habit of buying

arose between them as to whether the
sum due from the Duke to the Squire
was to. be calculated in guineasl or
pounds. 9 Throw in" exclaimed the
Duke, that ugly little white-faced
devil looking over the gate yonder and

than done. Childers went with the lot

was straightway accepted, and the
curiosity Of Chlders' critics satisfied at
once. It is needless to add that the
horse was Immediately put into train
ing, and the Chatsworth post pony
found himself at once transformed into
the pride and terror of Newmarket.
His comparatively small size was con-
sidered at first, suppose, to unfit him
for racing. The same thing happened
with Gimcrack afterward-some such
accident disclosed his. superiority, and
the wondering groom rushed to tell his
master that the "little cripple colt
could beat them all. ''-F FortnightlY Re-
