What q Farmer Saws.

A representative of the REPUBLICAN,
stopped In the market this morning at the
tail end OF q Brandywine hundred farm
eT's wagon, where there was fine array
Of country beef on market bench for
sale.
~ see you have some very fine beei
there for sale in spite of the Chicago
mbnop. lics," said the reporter.
'0b, yes" replied the farmer, "but
the Chicago beef concern has COM
pletely kno ked out cattle raising among
the farmers. We used to make little
mDney by fattening steers every fall but
that IL all over now. Why there is farmer
uH here in Christiana Hundr, d, who has
two sets of iattened steers on hand that
be has not been able to sell for what he
gave tor them, even after he had fAttened
them. Nov this meat have here on this
bench is from q splendid young heller
that weighed $50 pounds, aud l couldn't
gel SIS for II. Why couple of years
agp could have got $50 for it. No, this
thing may be fun for the Chicago beef
men, but 1t is hard on the farmers.
understand that Chicago beef is laid
upon the butcher stalls fsr and cents
per pound. aud yet you people in the city
have to give as much tor St ak of Chicago
beef as you did when home raised teef
ruled the market. Some ody must make
mC ney by the change. l am told that
bu cheers make enough by the tale of
slde Of Chicago beef each market day 10
pay high rents ana keep large families"
The farmer continuing said he hoped
the Chicago beef bill would pass the Leg
islatute so that farmers might once more
have chance. lie said all that the
farmers wanted was that all beef cattle
should be inspected in the State before
slalghtt ring, This he thoul bit was moth
lug NOR than right and proper.

Last evening, when VIM. II. Robinson
OF Nc. New street, Ninth ward, returned
home from his work, he was requested
by his wife not 70 go out, as she expected
lady to call on her whom she was
anxious he should meet. As he had set
his mind on attending the service At Ep-
worth Church, he reluctantly consented.
About 8 O'Clock, as he was enjoying q
segar, there was heavy rap at the door,
and when It was opened q host OF his
fellow members OF Epworth marched in
and took possession OF the house. In
few minutes he was taken and seated in
magnificent chair, q present from his
unexpected guests. 1he fact had es.
capped Mr., Robinson's mind that he bad
re lched the 40th milestone on life's jour
ncy until he was reminded of II by his
guests. The evening was spent in a
social manner, number of hymns were
sung and nm abundance Of Refreshments
served.
