THE STATE AT LARGE.
A Statement from Pond.

The following statement shows to q
fair extent the amount of wages that would
have been earned by worklngmen in the Sagi-
nav Valley during the so-calied strike In July
and August 1855. In one or two instances,
the estimated cost Of putting uncut product on
board vessels was not given, and no answers
were received from seven mills and one boom
company so that the magnitude of the loss to
the wage-earners is In no way oyer-stated, but,
on the contrary, had al reported the total UNI
earned wages would foot up at least S350,00O.
Take the boom company, which to-day has 40S
persons on a payroll amounting TO $342 "a
per day, besides board, and the cash loss in the
wages at the low estimate Of twenty mine and
a quarter days closed Is $1,000 80; to this
add estimated price of board, $40 per month,
and the actual loss to the boom company men
is $14,0Sl 49, When it is understood that the
men who sustained this loss were among our
most industrious and honest citizens; that
they had not asked for increased wages or de-
creased time and did not strike; that their
employers had made no change in their wage
position which should cause the men to strike;
to the contrary, the work was being prosecuted
in nearly every mill in Saginaw and Bay coun-
ties, when an armed force drove the men from
their work, and caused nearly the entire indus
try of the Saginaw Valley to stop, the question
arises who is responsible for this infringe
ment uron the rights of the workingmen, and
the great financial loss they have sustained
Should the responsible parties be punisheda
Perhaps the readers of your paper may be
interested in solving the question. Respect
fully.

TnE Baltimore correspondent Of the
Baltimore county Journal. draws
largely on bis imagination in the fol-
lowing paragraph published IN Satur-
days issue:
aThere IL said to be much lamenta-
tiou down in Anne Arundel county,
where the entire wealth Is invested
in watermelons and cucumbers. The
cholera scare has rendered those de-
licions articles almost valueless here,
except among the colored population
who twill eat um Ell we has to die for
it. = There certainly is possibility
Of the cucumber's exasperating pow
ers, unless it be properly dressed and
thrown to the pigs But q healthy
watermelon, imbibed with moderation
and s:fficient icy surroundings, can
not possibly harm anyone. All the
same, the Anne Arundel source Of
riches is under the ban, and Hon.
Mr.. Bannon's constituents are so sore
distressed that every mothers son
OF them is goading him on to midsum-
mer madness by demands for Office
But be ii equal to the emergency, and
counseIs his people to eat their own
cucumbers and melons, topped off Freq
uIarly with hard crabs and milk
Such diet may diminish the census,
but 1t is a sure remedy for poverty
and unstable crops. /"
Our watermelon and cucumber
grows were never in better spirits.
They know there are fools enough in
Baltimore, (the correspondent proba-
bly, among them,) who cannot resist
the rich and luscious melons or the
crisp cooling cncumbers they send to
that aud other cities, to consume their
entire crops even though the cholera
was in their midst.

LINcoLN's FoREFATHERs.- Lin
coins forefathers had been back
woodsmen and Indian fighters for sew
eral generations. His grandfather
came to Kentucky soon after Daniel
Boone, and his father pushed on to
Indiana when that territory in turn
was the frontier. Faithful to the in.
stinct that had kept his progenitors
on the front wave of emigation, Lin
coin himself, at 81, found Indiana too
crowded, and went still further west
ward, into tho heart of Illinois At
that time, as we know, he could read,
write and cipher, having had in oil
just twelve months schooling He
never went to school afterward. But
the few volumes to be found 10 his
fathers log house and the neighboring
cabins he almost knew by heart. His
mother-in- recounts that wherever
he came across passage that struck
him he would write it down on
boards, If, as usally happened, be bad
no paper, unit it had been indelibly
inscribed upon bis memory. 1t is a
significant fact that among a half-a-
dozen books that during his youth
gave direction to his sympathies and
aspirations, and that endowed him
with his surprising mastery of terse,
idiomatic English, were the Bible,
Bunyan's "PiIgrim's Progress, !"
Weems' "Life OF Washington and
the poems Of Robert Burns. There
is hardly a speech or state paper Of bis
that does not contain expressions or
illustrations drawn from Scripture
and all his life he could quote Burns
from end to end.
