The circular of the commissioners
OF the proposed national agricultural
exhibition, TO be held at Louisville
this year, is being largely distributed
over the wkole country at an early
ds We see no reason why this ex-
position should not receive strong
encouragement by the general gov
ernment, and we believe the new
congress VIII look upon the project
with favor. The circular speaking
of the agricultural interests of the
Uaited States says
I'm our country there are about
S 600 GOO persons engaged in acricul
ture, and about 5000 600 persons en-
gagged in manufactures. There Is
mole than $l2. 600, 900 600 capital in
vested in farms implements aud live
stock, and not SO 700 coo, 600 capital
invested IA manu- 'actures. So says
the census Of 1850 The profits Of
the whole body of manufactures are
about equal % the whole profit ON
agriculture, yet the history OF our
national legislation shows every effort
directed toward The development and
stimulation of manufacturing inter
ests, while agriculture has in the
rsain been left 70 work out its own
results
For many years the feeble effort
10 maintain at Washington a bureau
devoted TO agricultural interests was
the Jest Of the country, and even now,
with AL the good accomplished by the
department of agriculture in the face
of adverse circumstances and made
quate means the aid eiveE to agricul-
ture by congress, ia comparison with
the practice of other governments, is
ridiculously small in its amount and
absurd IN It's methods. A stray
pamphlet of current st ,tistics, an odd
volume of the annual report, and g
handful Of seed now and THEN, is the
ordinary experience Of the mos
favored participant in the govern
ment' S bounty 10 the great agrcultur

Boston Record

The other day we sent a dispatch
making the announcement that Gen.
Butler had succeeded in renting his
house to the senate for committee
rooms. The rent is fixed at So, 600 a
year, and the senators buy at an APP.
praisal the carpets and other furniture
which they think can be used by the
new occupants. This new move will
surprise some OF the senator's very
much. Two have already told me
that they Lad no knowledge of any
such authority being given, and
would have opposed it had they been
aware of the PLAN The committees
which Will be housed there will have
very little work to perhaps one
meeting year is their average. You
can see that a committee with any
business before it could not transact
it successfully at rooms SO far from
the senate chamber. But there is no
danger that any trousle will be ex
perienced. The senator's who expect
to be located in the Butler house,
headed by Bowen, of Colorado, will
be handsomely accommodated, and
their sideboards will never be empty
when friends call. l understand they
will fix one room with a billiard table
and be generally comfortable. Before
the winter is over, some echoes of
high times may come out through
these walls. The house is a gem in
its way, complete to the highest point
of the cupola. Some years ago Sen.
Jones, of Nevada hired and furnished
it without regard to expense. When
he fell into financial difficulties he
could not pay the rent, and so turned
the furniture over to the owner, and
this Cen Butler is selling piece by
piece. During his present stay the
general is probably occupying the
house for she last time.

Wise Sentiment.

Happy is the man who can find
soace at home Warm greeting from
loving hearts, fond chances from
bright eyes, and welcome shouts of
merry hearted children; the many
thousand little arrangements that
silently tells of thoughtful and ex-
pectant love These are the minis
tration that reconcile las to the prose
of life. Think Of this We wives and
daughters OF business men; think Of
thu tolls, anxieties, the modification
and wear that fathers undergo to Sc
cure you comfortable homes, and
compensate them for their tolls by
making them happy by their own
Preside.
God is to be seen AID heard and felt
in his works. The universe is there
fore the language by which the Deity
expresses his thoughts and feelings,
and earth, with all its phenomena of
things animate and inanimate, is the
speaking of God to man as friend to
friend.
A blameless person is all very well
in a book, to point moral or adorn
q tale, but In real life he is distinctly
disagreeable, because he is so differ
ent from every one else
The theory that boy may be
popped into school, like corn into a
mill, to come out, after a time, ready
for use, has been exploded by the sad
experience of nearly all that have
tried it.
It may be triAe that we buy clay
for candy, or cornmeal for ginger,
but it is no tride to have falsshood
and fraud perysde mercantile life, so
that in many departments Of trade
honest goods are the exception.
Men are born histories, unopened
unreaaable; nevertheless, every man
born into this life brings down some
thing of his father and something Of
his mother. with new mixture made
by the mingling Of the two.

Now that the anniversary of Wash
ington's birth is being sacredly obserT-
ed; and his monument dedicated, it
must be an appropriate time to in
dulge in the contemplation of his char
acter, says the Rev. DIR. Bell, in The
Md Continent.
And first, rs with our minds eye we
behold the completed monument at
the capital of our nation. 1t of itself
alone deserves an elaborate chapter to
do any justice to its history; its design,
its progress-all the matter connected
with but the adamant, and metal that
make its mighty proportions, as they
have been in the laying these many
years, unto its topmost stone; placed
amidst the shoutings of fifty millions
of free people.
The foundations were tested, and
re-tested, until they were pronounced
stable, immovable enough to hold an
Atlean world. Then the huge blocks
