BosToN, March G.-The banking house OF
Charles Sweet tE Co., 40 State street, this
city, suspended payment this morning,
causing considerable excitement in financial
circles. The house has been advancing
money, it is stated to the Massachusetts,
Central railroad, carrying its bonds and
placing them on the market. The road
bonds have shrunk in value and the banks
which have been carrying the bonds nave
called on Sweet & Co. for additional funds
From this cause the firm have been I'M
able to respond Liabilities are placed at
about S4. 100000. The unsecured Liabilities
of the firm are about $2,5O00OO, and Sweet
has personal property outside the firm more
than sufficient to secure this amount
Members of the firm say no creditors need
lose u dollar and an investigation of assets
show, a remarkably clean sheet. The effect
of the failure among the brokers was less
than would be that of almost any other
bankeron the street. Liabilities are almost
entirely to banks on good collaterals. The
firm will make statement tomorrow or
Wednesday.

When to Plant Corn.

81 Formerly almost every farmer was
anxious to get his corn planted the last
week in April or the first week in May.
One of the principal reasons for this
was that it was less liable to be injured
by the garb and wire worms on account
of its early growth. Another was in
the case of the seed rotting or the plant
- being damaged from any cause, there
would be plenty of time to replant. A
e trial of this method has not resulted sue
cessfully, as it isfound that early planted
corn is frequently delayed in sprouting
i.a by unfavorable weather; and when it
does make its appearance it is yellow
and stunted, and sometimes does not
recover. Whereas, by planting from
. the 10th to the Doth of May the ground
is sure to be warm and adapted to early
81 termination, the seed starts to sprout at
once and comes up strong and healthy.
81" s1'o combat enemies six grains should be
" placed in each hill, properly separated,
= and then, should the plants escape in
+ jury from the grub and wireworm by
the use of salt placed around the hill
after the corn is up, remove the plants
above three Again, farmers are be-
ginning to put their hills closer in the
row, and with the increased number OF
. ! grains to each hill they seldom are dis
appointed Of good crop, if well at
tended to. We have known good
crop of corn to be realized when planted
far in June. One, indeed, was planted
on the 29th of the month, and produced
= a satisfactory crop, contrary to the an
e ticipations of many people who wit
messed the planting and watched the
growing of the crop. We do not re-
member the number of bushels it pro-
duced to the acre, but we should have
estimated it between fifty and sixty. At
any rate, too early planting is risking
more than the farmer should be willing
to risk in the face of so many disap-
tments.-Lancaster (Pa.) Weekly.

Markets Outside Cities.

An extensive pOtato-raiser in Wiscon-
sin states that he sells large proper
ton of his crop every year to the farm
ers in his neighborhood who are en-
gagged in producing grain and hops. He
finds that persons who are engaged in
some specially do. not wish to trouble
themselves with raising minor crops.
They are commercial farmers in the
Z strict sense of the term, and expect to
by most 6f the food their families and
workmen consume. The number of
farmers who are engaged in some
speciality in this country is now large.
The great wheat-raisers pay little atten-
Z ton to anything else. They buy their
provisions the same as persons do who
are;not engaged in cultivating the soil.
One ''bonanza" farmer will require all
the small crops that general farmer
can produce. As rule, small towns
are poorly supplied with fruits and
choice vegetables. The great bulk of
these articles raised is Immediately sent
to large cities. If any find their way To
i small towns, it is generally after they
have been to a large city and have been
reshipped. The production. of small
fruit is often very profitable in the vi
cinity of villages. The cost of marketing
is small and good prices are obtained.
Manufacturers endeavor to ascertain
what kinds of goods they can sell and
where they can dispose of them before
they commence to make them. Farmers
would make more money if they fol-
lowed their example. The production
of certain crops designed for particular
markets is likely to become q habit.
The demand for farm productions should
= Ve cafefully studied, like the demand for
Che product of looms and machine-shops.

The States of the South, acting after the

London and other European cities. The
bureau will have samples Of the agricultural
and manufacturing interests of the South

The press of the South and West owe it to

which the press fulills all over the world,
and one Of its highest missions and services to

As cool and cleverly executed a piece
of swindling as has recently come to
light occurred the other day at the West

"turn-out t.a Directly the carriage stop
ped the footman got down, spoke for a
moment with the distinguished-lo looking
occupant, and then entering the talor,s

Lord A wished to- see him.. The
tailor went out, when the gentleman in
the brougham- said: 81 ain Lord A -.

Now, Sir John B was one Of the
tailor's best customers, and Mr.! Snip
replied that he had the honor of clothing

him. se~
He was on bis way to Brighton, and
was just too late to get check cashed
at his bankers, Messrs. Coutts & Co.
Could the worthy Mr.. Snip oblige his
lordship with the money! The tailor
was only too happy to accommodate the
peer, and quickly counting out EDO in
gold and notes, brought it to the car
rage with many expressions of delight
at the. , opportunity offered him of
obliging SO distinguished, a. member of
the aristocracy. Need [ add that when
that check was presented by the tailor's
