An editorial in the Mark Lane Express
agricultural authority in England, is
worthy Of thought by Western farmers.
1t will not be good policy TO rush new
wheat into the market too rapidly under
depressed prices. The EEpTsss says:
Farmers, hold your Wheat-if you csni
That is the advice which. for the first
time in my life, venture to give. Since
/ have been acquainted with farming
there has not been year when the pei
icy OF holding wheat WRs so strikingly
desirable az 1t is this season. In view Of
future supplies current prices are some
thing like an insult to growers. In
America there is about the worst crop on
record; in South Russia a failure of the
crops Is reported; in the rest OF Europe.

gregate yield viii probably be under

Whence, then, shall we get the 16,0OO.-
600 or IL, GOO 600 quarters we shall prob
ably require TO import? We receive
wheat IN small quantities from so many
sources that there lis no fear Of scarcity.
but we shall certainly have to give
higher price than we are now Offering

ton with bread. If farmers do not food

For some weeks q novelty In the shape
Of fair and change box for sTeatEaii-
way cars has been on exhibition sc Vari-
GUS places in the city. It was yesterday
viewed at the office Of theCity and Lake
railway company, No. 1O2 Canal street,
and explained by one Ofits patentees.
The box generally resembles in e1ter-
nal appearance an ordinary railway fsir-
box, but differs from it materially In its
workings. 1t not only serves as q depos-
tory for the customary nickels paid By
the passengers for transportation, but &
also makes change. it is this money
changing apparatus that is an interest
ing and most valuable novelty.
For instance, if the passenger desiring
TO pay fair should offer q silver dollar 90
be changed he would not hand it to the
driver but would drop 10 into the box
through an opening marked Change"
The dollar would 60 into some inner
recess, but at the same moment q half
dollar, quarter dollar, two dimes and a
Lickel would appear in a small basin ia
reach Of the passenger, who would thus
get his change ana then drop his nickel
into the place for fares. If half-dOllar
should be offered for change, q quarter
dollar, two dimes and a nickle would be
returned by the ingenious mechanism.
IT quarter dollar were offered the
change would come out in the shape Of
two dimes and a nickel. A dime Pat in
for change would bring forth two nickies.
/ If by mistake a nickls should be drop
ped into the change hopper it. would not
disturb the interior ARRANGEMENTS. bat
would pass throgh into the basin and be
returned to the passenger.
lfCOursa- this autounQfic vnaehoufarr
would not give change for bank notes, as
the principles Of It's operations depend
on the htand size Ofth6 coins which
on entering the box, pass through holes
proportional to their respective sizes,
and then pass against levers which omen
their Orifces and set free the correspond
ing coins which are to come out ia
change.
There are also on the side of the box,
under glass, four diaiplates fitted with
hands or indiCes, which mark the
amount Of money in the change depart
ment. One dial plate shows the number
OF half-dOllar pieces, another gives the
quarters, third shows the dimes, and
fourth the nickels. When a car starts
out the change-box must be furnished
with proportion of coins of the de-
nominations mentioned, and as change
is made, and as these are SUGGEST VeIy
dropped out, others must be put in their
places. There dial plates show what is on
hand and obviate the necessity of ex-
aiming the interior of the mechanism,
The apparatus is exceedingly ingenious
and appears to operate with accuracy and
satisfactory readiness, and also save the
driver Of the car from having to handle
the money. While nothing but actual
use viii prove the practical value of the
invention every indication seems TO de-
clare it q success.

Concerning George Eliots' Poetry,
ana Other Studies" by Rose Elizabeth
Cleveland, the New York Nation says:
"When we disregard the adventitious
interest of the authorship, the work re-
fuses to lose its representative and i'll
ustratiVe characteristics; it remains an
extraordinary book for an ordinary WO-
man to b We Written-a woman who is
not q genius, nor even gifted with high
talents, but distinguished among her sex
merely by those qualities which in the
case ola man earn for him the title of the
plain man Of the people, A plain man
OF the people Is by no means an average
man; and this is not a book of an average
woman. In the qualities of mind, in the
practical ethics and ideal of WOmanly
and manly character it displays, one
sees, as at the domestic hearth of the
republic, the faith, hope, and love In the
habit and practice Of which the children
are being nursed in thousands of enlight-
ened humble homes; and in the literary
style, In the intellectual interests and at
talnments exhibited, one sees sign and
proof Of the good of female education
among Us, for, as has teen indicated, the
authOress Is not a born WFiter'-her
style and substance are the product Of
schools. The real pour, the
line of strength in all these essays, is in
their mortal apprehension, their intutiVe
certainty In the region of character, duty,
and human association, and in particular
In their senses of the simplicity Of the
elements Ofvirtue. We may dissent from
pOsltiOn-We may be too exquisite to
agree here, too fond of scholarly exact
ness to be content tkere-but from the
spirit we never dissent. 1t is the spirit
IN which the best Of our stock has been
bred ."
