French Peasants.


M. Betham Edwards, in her @France
of To-day" speaks again and again of
the benefits accruing from the owner
ship of land by the peasantry. AS a
native of England, she seems to have
been peculiarly impressed by this
feature of life across the Channel.
She writes with special enthusiasm
of Osse, "a remote Pyrenean village
admirably adapted for the study OF
rural life" "A beautiful spirit of
humanity" she declares, "a delicacy,
rare among the most polished socie-
ties, characterize these frugal sons
and daughters of the soil"
AS sordidness carried to the pitch
of brutality is often imputed to the
French peasant, let me relate an in
cident that occurred hereabouts not
long before my visit.
The land is minutely divided, many
possessing cottage and field only.
One OF these small owners was sud-
denly ruined by the falling of rock;
{ his cottage, COW and pig were de-
stroyed. Without saying word, his
neighbors, like himself in very hum
BILE circumstances, made up purse
of five hundred francs, large sum
with such doners, and, too delicate
minded to offer the gift themselves,
deputed an outsider to do it anony-
mously.
Another instance in point came to
my knowledge. This was Of young
woman servant, who, during the ill
ness of her employers, refused to
accept wages.
"You will pay me some other time, !"
said the girl to her mistress. Il am
sure you can ill afford to give me the
money now.
Peasant property, and rural life
generally, here presented to me some
wholly new features. One Of these is
the almost entire self-sut1icingness OF
very small holdings. their owners
neither buying nor selling, making
their little crops and stock almost
completely supply their needs.
On a field or two enough flax is
grown with which to spin linen for
home use, enough wheat and Indian
corn for the years bread-making
maize being mixed with wheaton
-four. Again. pigs and poultry are
reared for daily consumption.
Expenditure is reduced to the mini
mum. Coffee is luxury seldom in
dulged in. A few drink homegrown
wine, but all are large milk drinkers.
The poorest is good customer OF the
dairy farmer.

TIDE OF IMMIGRATION.

570, ,663 Immigrants Arrived During
the Year Ending June so Last.
W. D. Owens, Superintendent of Immigra-
ton, says that $40. 663 immigrants arrived
in this country during the year ending
June 80, 1892 OF whom 2801 came in viola
ton of law and were returned to their
homes. OF this number 1863 were con-
tract laborers. The vigorous prosecution
of the alleged vioiators of the Contract
Labor law and the detection and return Of
an unusual number of imported con-
tract laborers during the fiscal year
deter contractors in the United States
from further efforts at evading this
law. Sixty thousand Canadians enter the
United States every spring and return to
their homes in the fall, to spend their earn
ings in their country. Mr.. Owens thinks it
might be advisable to extend the ffty-cent
head tax to all immigrants coming over our
ing here, on an average. forty per cent.
higher than in Canada
Immigrants arriving the past year are
divided as follows: Butchers, 2723; black.
smiths. 2558; carpenters, 520l; farmers,
81, $50; masons, 3709, miners, 6966; tailors,
9274; laborers, III, 4S3. Seventy seven per
cent. of all immigrants landing in the United
States enter by the Port of New York. Last
year 242, 66S became residents Of New York,
83, 414 went to Pennsylvania, 46.Ol2 to LII
nois, 80, 9S7 to Massachusetts, and 16.O56 to
Wisconsin. The 15O, 900 remaining were dis
tributad througout the other States of the
Union.

Secretary Elkins's Report.

The annual report of the Secretary of
War has been made public. Secretary
Elkins expresses qualification in being
able to say that the Army has main
tanned throughout the year its high
standard of discipline and efficiency. Since
the present organization OF our infantry was
adopted many caanges have taken place in
the art of war, resulting, among other
things in a material modification of the
form of infantry regiments. Our stationary
condition in this respect has left us with an
obsolete organization, the defects of which
render immediate acrion in organizing the
three battalion formations for infantry
regiments. The Secretary recommends the
revival of the rank of Lieutenant-G General
as 8 permanent grade.
Enlistments during the year have been of
an improved class OF men, the standard or
qualification having been raised. The
Secretary thinks the Army, under favor.
able conditions, should be one OF
the most desirable trades of youth. !.
1t is recommended that the pay of all non
commissioned grades be increased, making
promotion thereto the object of legitimate
ambition, thereby inducing the enlistment
of the very best material to compete for pro.
motion to those graHes.
The announcement is made that our In
dian wars are nearly ended, and the neces.
sity for massing troops no longer exists
Seventy per cent. is now locagsd west
OF the Mississippi River. New military
posts are recommended in Montana Arkan-
sas and New Mexico. The presence of regu-
lar troops in these States would familiarizs
the people with the Army. lead them to
bstter understand its operations and, it is
believed. foster kindlier interest in it.
The West Point Academy shows marked
advancement. It's capacity is not overtaxed.
Vacancies in the list of cadets constantly
exist, which it is important should be kept
full. 1t is recommended that the Presidents
be given authority to appoint ten cadets-at-
large each year.
The artillery, infantry, engineer and
cavalry schools have proved successful ex-
periments. The only serious obstacle to the
rapid development of the schools to their
full limit of usefulness arises from a want
OF funds to conduct the exclusively scholastic
work.
The Importance Of maintaining and i'm
proving the militia of the several States
Is generally admitted. The National
Guard is the reserve force of the Army.
Attention is invited to the necessary
appropriations for arming and equipping
this reserve force. In 1855 the
appropriations for the militia Of the
States was 800. 00). The highly improved
arms and equipments OF the present day
cost more than treble what they did eighty
million dollars for this purpose is recon-
nended.
The Indian soldiers are doing excellent
,ervice, showing remarkable aptitude for
military duty.
He estimates that the total expenditures
IT his department for the fiscal year ending
June 80, 1894, will be $43, S54, ,679 ~, against
j51, ,2l8. SO in 1892 and S56 532, 922.24 for
;he present year.
