The Farmers Home Market.

"The true test of national prosperity
is the power to consume. Our farmers
will enjoy greater prosperity when our
manufacturing industries will demand
the agricultural products for home con-
sumption. The poorest nations on earth
are those which rob themselves of farm
products to pay foreign debts. The
most prosperous farmers to-day are
those who are fortunately located near
manufacturing villages which consume
all the food products they have to offer"
SO says the Cultipator. We would
like to have our Boston contemporary
tell us how we are to sell all our crops
to home manufacturing population,
when our home markets for manufac-
tured goods are already overstocked,
and factories are discharging their help
and shutting down on every side? We
have developed home manufactures by
high tariff, as sort of hot-bed growth,
but as so developed they have proved
themselves, after fifty years of protec-
ton, to be unable to meet the manufac-
VI OtIcl ilullollS III tllt open llluT-
kets of the world. 1t is plain that a
protected industry can never make sales
outside of its lines of protection, while
inside those lines they all soon overstock
the market. Consequently, under pro-
lection, our farmers must seek for Gus
toners chiefly among those people who
manufacture for the world. and not for
themselves alone. And we would be
glad, while he is aboutit, if our Cultiva-
tor friend will explain why it is that ag-
riculture is at so low an ebb in Massa-
chusetts if the proposition of its last
sentence, as quoted, is true? We know
that we have always been told that such
was to be the result of the development
of manufacturing interests, yet the CHI
ticdt0r itself has very recently borne
testimony that in the rich manufacture
ing Connecticut valley farm Ian DIS have
greatly declined in value, and the farm
ers have become poor. 1t is not worth
while to have an argument (any more
than baITeD leaky at both ends,

The PRESS some time ago stated that Mr. A.
G. Schlotterbeck had purchased the drug
store Of j. 81. Whitney No. 653 Congress street,
and would run itin connection with his present
establishment. Since Mr.. Scblotterbeck has
taken it be has made very great changes, and
it is now one OF the most attractive apothecary
stores in the city. The front has been entirely
remodeled, large plate glass windows, 8x16
feet, having been put in. The interior of the
store has been greatly changed, by the intro
ductlon of new counters, shelves, drawers show
cases, and an expensive soda fountain The
wood work is in pure white, and the store with
its glass front makes most attractive appear

The close law in relation to Holsters goes into
operation today august 15th) and will con-
tinue in effect three months, or until the 18th
OF November. There is considerable complaint
among the catchers and dealers in Holsters and
fishermen in general, not only on account Of
the direct loss to them by the operation of the
law which prevents them taking this she'll
fish when they will bring the highest price,
but also because they are not allowed to
take them for use as bait; and for rock cod
land fish OF all kinds as to that they afford the
very best article for bait that can be used.
Inc amount of Holsters taken on the Maine
coast is estimated to be % 100000 annually, of
which 100000 are sold to the regular trade,
while the balance, $4,000. 900, are consumed by
the lobster packersl Yet the amount of money
paid to the catchers for the 100000
amounts to much more than that paid BIZ
the packers on the 10000 1t is claimed
that the law was passed originally in the inter-
est OF the packers and that its operation is IN
Just and oppressive upon the fishermen, be-
cause at this season the packers are obliged to
be very actively engaged in packing corn and
berries and cannot work with Holsters Another
charge is that while the general trade in lob
sters is in reality slight in the mouths OF
Close time, yet consumers who want them at
all want them very much. The export trade
to New York in the months of MAY, June and
July amounts to forty bushels day on the part
OF one dealer, as be says, yet he sends only
from three to five barrels daily now, but that
number is very eagerly demanded by hotels
and summer boarding houses all along the
shore One fisherman said to us yesterday at
the wharf that the dog fish destroys large
quantities of this shell fish and as the former
is no value whatever except for its liver, from
which an oil is extracted similar to cod liver
oil, it would ray fer the State to offer bounty
OF say one-half cent a fish for dogfish as that
would favor the protection of Holsters, and
then the Law might be repealed in toto Others
favor the terms Of the Massachusetts, Law,
which is that no lobster shall be taken less
than ten and one-half inches in length at any
time of year.
Mr.. W. s. Trefethen, on Bnrnham's wharf,
Is very intelligent man ON this subject and
has gveu us some interesting points which
space forbids us to mention. One thing we
have especially noticed is that while dealers
and catchers are agreed as to the great loss
and Inconvenience suffered by them as to the
operation OF this close law, yet they are not
wholly agreed as to the very best means to be
adopted in the premises, but they will BIO
present before the next Legislature and ask
some form OF redress of their grievances.

A stabbing ARRAY took place in the city yes
tsrday morning that came near proving a
tragedy. A man o. wars man named Hansen.
OF foreign extraction-weLt down Custom
House wharf to engage boat to take him TO
his ship the jamestown.
One version of the affair states that while
making bargain with boy in boat he was
assaulted by three men, one of them named
Foley, and that Foley struck him over the
head with club. upon which Hansen drew
his knife and gave Foley four serious cuts over
the forehead, requiring DR.. Fosters taking
twenty-four stitches to sew up the wounds
Hansen rushed to franklin wharf, followed by
q crowd Of citizens, where he was arrested BY
Detective Davis and afterwards handed over
by him to Officers Pickett and Slower as they
came along, by whom Hansen was taken to
the station.
The other version of the story is that Hansen
was trying to take advantage of the boy who
had the boat and was abusing him, when Foley
stepped up and demonstrated with Hansen.
The latter, it was said, had been drinking and
he attacked Foley with his knife and inflct-
ed the wounds. A crowd gathered, got away
the knife from Hansen and handed him over
TO the officers as they came along.
Whichever story is correct Hansen has a
battered head.
