Tn p. c. Adra1iser of yesterday outlines
a preposterous theory. emanating from the
Foreign Office now that the formidable
obstacles appear TO be nearly removed,
which were in the way Of the extension OF
the treaty. on the part Of the United States.
IT Is NOT FOR THE INTEREST OF THIS COUNTRY
TO HAyE THE TREATY EXTENDED, The only
reason suggested for such an astonishing
idea is. that a reduction or removal Of
American sugar duties would render the
treaty OF less, or OF no valuc to rs. while
we should he bound by its obligations to
make no Reciprocity Treaty with any other
country. There would, we presume, be no
difficulty. il the treaty Is renewed. in max
ing its continuance depend upon the re
tention OF some American duties on sugar:
a. long a. any duties are retained, tins
country will need the advantage. however
slight it may be, which the treaty gives.
Once lose that and Our sugar production
must almost cease. Surely the course OF
the government which is above outlined
demands the immediate consideration OF

The Custom House tables, 50 admirably
compiled by Col. Allen and his assistants,
have appeared somewhat later than they
did last year. when they were published
during the first week of February. To
present such number Of complicated
tables however so soon before the public.
shows that the work has beeen most sys
tpmatically done The Custom House is by
far the hardest worked bureau in the gov
crnment, and it Is most thoroughly kept
up to the mark by Col Allen.
The trade of the country during the last
year has been prosperous; small State
with population Of 5000, which can ex
port goods 10 the amount Of SS,133, 3,342.SS,
need not be ashamed of the energy and
push of its inhabitants. The tale Of this
past wear. however, is not the same tale as
that Of 1882 Our exports have decreased
not a very large amount truly. but they
have decreased. The sum of S65.6I2.S2.
which represents the difference in value
between the exports of 1882 and those of
1888. is a small matter, but it seems TO
point out that we have almost reached the
limit of our productive capacity, and that
at SS.OO0,0OO our exports Will remain.
The showing Of the tables with regard
to imports next claims attention. Here
We find very large increase indeed:
Imports for 1888. Sh!62l 2iO09
Imports for 1882. 4.9i45lOOl

This means that we have been making a
little less money this year and have been
spending considerably more There has
been a steady tendency among the people
Of these islands to spend largely. People
spend more here, and are more careless of
money than in most places in the world:
and the individual tendency Is also the ma
tional tendency. as the tables show. OF
course a large quantity of the above i'm
ports have been of articles which have
been used for permanent improvements
Under such heads We can class building
materials. lumber. machinery and railroad
materials but increase in liquors of all
kinds. in fancy goods and millinery, In
perfumery and toilet articles, in certain
lines of groceries. which may be classed as
luxuries. and in tobacco and cigars are for
anything but permanent improvement. A
very large increase lies in the import of
LIQUORS. These stand at $2Ig.3S5 against
Sl20.7SO for 1882; in this we can see the
effect OF the liquor law The customs re
ceipts show very decided increase over
last wear. viz: S7l.941-S9, but when we
compare this customs revenue with that of
1880. we can Judge how large hasbeen our
advance. In that year they were only
SI02 2lS163, just S175. q less than they
were for 1888.
The next point of view to look at these
tables from, Is the amount of business done

Bagasse for Manure.

Cor. Prairie Farmer
Where large crop of sorghum is raised
and worked up upon the farm, it is often
a question what shall be done with the
bagasse.
The farmer who keeps his farm neat
and clean does not like to have such an
unsightIy pile lying IN the field. After
it becomes thoroughly wet it is very in
convenient material to handle. tits one
Of the very best materials have ever
used for loOsening up stiff soil. Spread
over as evenly as possible, early in the
Fall, and then pillow under. Then during
the Winter pillow again, so as to mix thor
oughIy with the soil; it will loosen it up,
and be of great benefit. l hauled lot
of it over a mile, and spread it on a field
of hard pan soil, and plowed it in after
this plan, and found it more than paid
for the trouble and expense.
AS mulch it is difficult to find any
thing that is any better, especially where
it is desirable to retain the moisture
Applied around raspberries, black berries
gOosebeIries or straw berries it is one OF
the best materials I have ever tried. For
vines it is also valuable, retaining the
moisture longer than any other material
Tomato, squash, cucumber and this class
of vines often suffer during July and AU-
gust with the hot, dry weather, so much
so as to seriously idjure the crop. A good
| application of bagasse put around the
stems of these vines will retain the mois-
ture long time, and will aid materially
in increasing the crop.
1t can be used as an absorbent in the
! barnyard. l object always to having
any kind of stalks in the barn, but fol
the yard bagasse can be used to a splen-
did advantage. Scattering a thick layer
of it all over the barnyard or feed lot
will absorb ard retain large amount Of
! LIQUID manure, and under these condi-
tions will rot very rapidly, and also in
crease not only the bulk but also the
value of the manure heap. It is also
good for bedding for hogs, preferable tC
straw as 1T is COarser and does not pack
as tight and prevent ventilation. Again
it can be utilized to good advantage a.
covering for sheds7either for hogs
! sheep or cattle. ] t is a better material
for this purpose than straw, as it will
turn off water far better, and will not rot
as rapidly, and generally will not be dis
| turbed as much by stock. It is very
warm, and when the farmers are not
able to purchase boards and make good
board shed this material is the next best
for this purpose.
For any of these purposes it is well
worth saving, as it CIn be used for sheC
covering and then be manufactured into
the very best Of fertilizers. As. Il said be
fore, hauled large lot OF it oven {
mile to use as a manure, and wOulC
gladly do the same again, If | could ge
it to haul, as am convinced by the trials
I have made with it, that it is well worth
the trouble and expense of handling, anC
would far rather use it in one of the way
mentioned than allow it TO lay in piles
forif left alone, it will take years befor,
it will rot away. It will outlast straw
pile any time, and either of them lef
standing is, to say the least, unsightly.

The Fresh Discovery Which He Made at
POmpeii.
Naples Cor. American Register.
Apropos of Pompeii, well known
Presbyterian divine, of London, now Wis
iting Naples, told me one of the best
things connected with the buried city
that l have heard for longtime. This
divine has not only the advantage Of
being a Scotchman, but also that of hav-
ing had some experience IN America lin
travel in the United States, and in resi-
dence in Canada, only few hours dis
tant from the Greater Britain" as Sir
Charles Dixie termed our country. A
few days ago, at dinner time, he perceived
opposite to him at the table d'hOte of his
hotel gentleman who, by his peculiar
expressions, freely given in backwoods
English, proclaimed himself to be an
American, and one of those men, prob
ably the son of an ignorant Irish emf
grant, who, by native force of character,
had worked up from poverty to a certain
degree of affluence. His brain, however,
had not been filed with knowledge as
his purse had been with dollars. He
evidently had succeeded in his own
neighborhood as lumberman or small
trader and finding himself possessed of
means, thought a little foreign travel
would set him up in the world. Vanity
and great selfesteem are often the ac-
compartments of acquired wealth with
out culture, and these two qualities fire.
quentlY prevent such men from getting
information by inquiries, as they do not
wish to show their ignorance by asking
questions about things which others
seem to know all about. So our back
woods american cousin" had come all
the way to Naples, and had never heard
of Pompeii, although he had heard tell
of Vesuve." Noticing that travellers all
around him went to Pompeii, he cOnsid-
cred it the correct thing for him to do.
He had been here two weeks and had
never put a single question about the
city, 50 that when he arrived there, en-
tering it by the Marie gate, down which
poured the commerce of Pompeii eighteen
centuries ago. he was all taken aback to
see ruins of houses emerging from the
strata of pumice-stone and ashes. He
for once forgot his ignorance, and with
an air of surprise, horror, and almost
stupefactiOn, he exclaimed: what on
airth's the matter with this place?
Somethin's wrong hereI Why it seems
all kivered up, and the peepul all ded p
1t has been the standing joke with his
companions ever since. But his shrewd-
ness and native wit, as a general thing,
| keep him even with the John Bulls who
surround him.

And lOitered to hear the robins sing,

And the sky was blue far overhead,
And far in the depths of the brook below.

And the vision Of lOveliness met my eye.
I saw her come to the other side,
And the apple blossoms were not more fair

And her eyes met mine in the water there.
She stopped in timid and mute surprise,
And that look might have lasted till now,

But modestly dropping her dove-like eyes,
She turned her away to the meadow green.
I stood in wonder and rapture lost
At her slender form and her step so free,
At her raven locks by the breezes tossed,
AS she kicked up her heels in the air for glee.
The apple blossoms are Withered now,

She was not all unprepared, perhaps
Jew women are-but she was startled by
Mr.. Haylesbury's directness, thrilled by
his ardor, surprised by his tenderness.
He read something of this in her face.
"Did you think was made of dollars

A Timely Matter.

The following paragraph taken from
an exchange hits a certain class ofyoung
men, and must have been written by
some female contributor: Leap year gives
young ladies gentleman's privilege in
making love. Yes, perhaps it does. But
no resuectable young men will have any
thing to do with young lady who takes
a position on a street corner and squirts
tobacco on their coat tails. Nor would il
look well for a dozen or more young la
dies to loaf around in front of q church
for an hour and half on Sunday nights,
sparring and knocking one another's hats
off, and dancing on the sidewalk in order
to kill time until the congregation is
dismissed, and then buckle up to young
man and escort him home"

ICH DENKE DEN.

From the German of Goethe.
1 think of thee when the rosy morn
Comes up the lea,
When shimmering lights the East adorn
And gid the sea.
BY the sombre night, when on my way.
Dark storms arise,
Thou art the star whose beauteous ray
ulumines the skies.
/ hear thee where the silvery wave
Plays on the shore,
In the silent wood I listening crave
One whisper more.
I see thee, though thou art afar,
And still are near,
When comes the eve with devastating star
Art thou not here?
