CRITICS of the United States who do not know the country look upon Amer ican optimism as a sort of appalling recklessness, but every immigrant who has industry and fair ability soon catch, es the sanguine tone of American soci- ety and hopes to better his condition. Even amid the squalor of tenement re- gions hope is the distinctive note of the community, and those who are seeking to better the condition of the poor in that quarter find that, in the absence of vice or hopeless disease, even people in receipt of charity look forward to better things.

crop of that state this year will be fully one-half of the entire crop of the United States. "The raising of rice" he says, "has worked wonders for the interest of our state. It has practically opened up n new industry in the agricultural line, and hundreds of farmers who thought their lands value less when the cotton gave out now find themselves in position that will soon place them in one year where cotton could not put them in five. It is really the most lucrative of all the new industries in the south"

until they can get up something to beat the
tunnel on Fourth avenue. Certes, we know OF
nothing In any city Of the Union to COM

upon you when emerging from the upper end
OF the artificial ravine that has been cloven
down some seventy feet through the solid
rocks OF Mount Prospect" The cars at this
time ran at intervals OF fifteen minutes. The
fare was twenty-five cents. subsequently the
road was extended down the Bowery to its
