down in the snow and Miss Royce wrapped
up the little ones rs best she could. Early
in the night one child died. later Il, second

Boston Globes London Cable: There
appears to be little prospect Of " match
being arranged between John l.. sullivan
and Jem Smith, for some time to come ut
least. Smith desires such meeting
brought about, but curious to say
his manager John Fleming,
is adverse to such IN arrangement. Smith
failed to show up at the Sportsman office
ut the appointed time. at which time arti.
cles were to be signed and prcliminarics ar.
ranged. After waiting nearly an hour
Sullivan appeared at the window to crafty
the curiosity Of the crowd below. liewas
received with loud cheers. Seeing no
chance Of Smith putting in an appearance
he took his departure Tor Paddington sta
ton. Previous to leaving. Sullivan, in
speaking OF Smiths failure to arrange ~
match, said to the writer:
came here TO fight Smith, and demand
hearing ut once. wish to serve notice
on him and his manager that in April | re.
turn to Boston, and should lie fail to meet
me, hope that on the eve of my depart.
ure Smiths manager will not be uDcl,arita-
BILE or mean enough to issue u challenge
except to fight in America. My $1,000
will remain at the Sportsman office at
least two weeks longer, s" that Fleming
can have no excuse for not coming
up to time. AS for KiIran. he is
only ~ third rate man in my country, and
when get back home he will have to fight
too. or else sink back into oblivion. Since
my arrival in England ! have given 81
shows. and have ncttcd S25,oo0 myself. ~
success heretofore unhcard Of in this co,,n-
try. have been well received everywhere,
aud drew big audiences in each town Wis
tied. 1t merely shows that the public at
large believe me to DO what ,ll Americans
claim. namely the champion Of the world.
No one can rursunde Sullivan that
Mitchell really means to stand up before
him and, unless the match with Smith is
ut last arranged, Sullivan will not take
the trouble to train very hard Despite
the action Of Fleming in not coming up to
time, John gives Smith credit for great
pluck, and only regrets that lie should be
in such hands. In fact, by u hard and
fast contract. he is quite in the power OF
his backer's managers.

HUnoN, Special, Jan. G-There is a great
deal OF discussion in tho papers by farmers,
and in their county alliance meetings about
the best methods of farming in Dakota.
Those in South Dakota have generally con-
ci,lded that 1t does not pay to raise wheat
here SO well Us other crops. They argue
that i'll raising wheat it is necessary to have
so much high priced machinery, which wears
out rapidly; to keep so many horses to run
the machines; TO have so much extra help
about threshing, that the crop is sunprohtab!c
and the danger Ia that 1t will take Il long
time to got out OF debt Tho fact that
Dakota raised G,OA0, 900 bushels more of
corn is 1857 than it did in 1856 is having u
great deal of influence in deciding farmers to
raise more corn and feed it to cattle and hogs
for shipment Corn did splendidlv this wear.
1t all ripened, and it averaged from
forty to Sixty bushels an acre q. ". Viii
helm, who lives near Ashton in Sphinx
