The Presidential frauds have done for
Mr.. TIlden what the Presidency itself
could hardly do for any man. As pri-
vate citizen he has remained one Of the
most conspicuous figures in American
politics. The Democratic party has
other distinguished leaders not inferior to
Mr.. Tilden i'm craftsmanship and patriot
ism. but the Democrats whose first choice
for the Presidency Mr.. Tilden would be, if
he were still a candidate. are evidently
more numerous than the supporters
of all other Democratic aspirants COM

When Mr.. Henry George was giving his
testimony before the Senate Labor Com
mittee last week he said: eff to-day you
We're to open a large tract of land near

question TO Mr.. George: Glow do you
account for the fact that In the Southern
States there are, and always have been.
great tracts of good agricultural land
upon which people cannot be got to set

account for that upon the theory that peO-
pie do not want TO 90 to the South"
The fact is the question of Sena-
tor Call exposed Mr.. Georges ignor-
ance Of what he was talking about. If
people who are engaged in trade in.New
York wanted to take up the occupation Of
farming, they would have no difficulty in
finding land. The sun says there is plenty
Of it on Long Island which can be had
for a very small price per acre. There is
certainly plenty in southern New
Jersey, and there is any quantity
in Georgia and Florida. The cost Of
reaching either Georgia or Florida
by steamer is very small. Land in
either state can be had for almost
nothing. The truth is, the people who
are overcrowding the trades in New York

The monkey is not a fool-certainly not

/ out of all gravity by painting one of their
number an agreeable yermiliOn, | never
saw anything in their behavior, sober or
drunk, composed or alarmed. that led me
to think them particularly foolish, as COM
pared with men. Indeed, when undis-
turbed in mind. the monkey has philO-
sOphical gravity which cOmpels my admi-
ration, although l confess the alternating
fits of monkey frivOlity and indecOrum
eXasperate me.
Since Father Noah squeez ed the grape
And took to such behaving
As would have shamed our grandsire ape
Before the days of shaving.
If they would only sit still a little longer

like to ask the monkey, babbOon. or ape
some questions of which the solutions in
terest me greatly. Why are they always
so sad-faced, when evidently the most
content: And where is the missing link ?
Is it true that they speak among them
selves in a {iHgltd trdHcd Of their own. and
that under the influence of hidden panic
they can articulate?
remember once in India, at the ALA
habad Club, monkey calling in frenzy
of terror to its native attendant by name.
1t had seen a cobra coming toward it. and
distinctly articulated its masters SER
wants name-and this more than one per-
son vouched for. Is then the tradition
correct thatNmonkeys refuse to talk lest
they should be made to work:
. Play at dummy like the monkeys
For fear mankind should make them fun

| should like, too. to ask them about the
dog-faced men of Tartary and the SOko
and the POngo, Susumete and Eugeena,
and to get at the truth about Du Chaillu'S
gOrllas, But as they are, the monkeys
are impossible in conversation. They are
too sudden, too unforeseen in their trans
formations from sense to ribaldry to be
rational, TOO furtive in expression to be
straightforward in reply, too fond of
scratching neighbOrs to keep to the point.
| What curious community Of fur this is,

ments are not paid when due, the
penalty shall be twenty per cent added.

fourth TO the poor fund of the county;
the remaining three-tourths equally be-
tween the police and the general funds;
where corporations have no police
fund, the three-fourths shall be placed
in the general fund. Any person who

days or both. The Dead Letter law
which forbids the selling of Intoxicating
liquors TO be drank on the premises, is
repealed.

on wheat, and narrowed well, got the
best stand, but not quite SO good Il
growth. What / sOwcd on oats did
not catch so well, except on very rich
soil, but made a heavy growth. What

very good catch but made a light
growth, and dry weather damaged it
considerably. Upon the whole | had Il
good stand. 1t grew finely the latter
part of the season. 1t all doomed out

As have had but little experience in
growing clover, | would like to hear
from some one that understands its adj
vantages, what kind of soil it benefits
the most, and how long land should run
in clover before it should be plowed and
resown. | sowed about four quarts TO

other seed. The young clover looks
