A United Country.
From Harper's Weekly Qnd.).

Another thing besides. the freedom of
Cuba will certainly accompany war, If war
there must be. Notwithstanding the I'M
willingness of the real patriots of the coun-
try who do not wish war except as the last
extremity. the people of the United States
will present a united front to their enc
mics. There will be no difference of opin-
ion among us while war lasts; there will
be no hesitancy in providing the means
and money to carry on the war; there will
be manifested everywhere, and by all
classes, devoted loyalty to the country
and those with whom we shall be called
upon to contend will have to Withstand
the full force of a powerful and willing
nation

night and reaches Kansas City In the
morning. Nearly every night he brings
in his car two or three coops Of live do
nestle ducks. During the night, when
no has no baggage to deliver at small
stations, it has been his habit and privi-
lege to lie down on an improvised couch
and doze. With the advent Of the ducks
the doziDg stopped. The almost constant

slipped over the ducks bill Just back Of

A GOOD IDEA.

The prizes offered by the North Caro-
lima Publishing Society (see notice liz
another column) to encourage the study
of our State history is Il step in the
right direction. We are most ignorant
of our own history and will so remain
unless we begin its study early. a valu-
able feature of the Forthcoming book,
Lives of Distinguished North Caro-
linians." now nearly all printed. is the
speeches of some of its most distinguish
ed subjects. The speeches of CASTOR,
Murphy and Badger especially and the
sketch of Macon by Barton are fine for
defamation: the book will therefore be
IA godsend to the schools which have
been forced to use Northern literature
for such purposes because we have lit
tie or none OF our own. Perhaps this
constant defamation of such literature
will account i'll part for the march Of
Northern ideas.

THE FARMER.

Dry Goods Chronicle.
The crops are record-breakerS this
year, and we appear doomed to wade
through oceans Of stuff about the pros
perity of the farmer. 1t 1nay be stated
on general principles, that there is no
such thing. The farmer is a m~ortgagcd
entity. The only farmers who are not
mortgagcd are those who Scrimp aud
save. and who put their scanty savings
into their land instead of investing them
in food and fine linen.
The prosperous" farmer is the farm
or who does not positively affect the
buSineSS situation. The farmer who
continues to pay interest on his mort
gage. and who believes in living ratl-
or than in existing. who goes into the
stores and leaves there Il share Of his
money. is the only kind of farmer the
business man can count on.
The farmer is 4 freed slave. He
raises the crops. he scrlpes and waters
the earth, and by toll from sunrise to
sunset. and sometimes ut moonrise. he
may annex enough food to sustain life.
Tho crops are the gift Of nature. and
the farmer is her ill-paid servant.
Prosperity of crops means that the
money lenders the railways and the
merchants will make money. Thu
farmcr personally has almost nothing to
do with it.
Here is IN example. y farmer. fifty
miles from New York. receives 10 cents
for Il can OF milk. The same canful is
doled out to the New York consumers
1T 81. The farmer pays for interest,
feed. cattle and labor out of his IL
cents. III the leave-over for him is not
much Of Il wad. But the other fellows
have threc-SiXty of margin, and they
are the men who make the prosperity
of the country.
In brief. the earth products of this
country are the basis of its %rosperit V.
But the first producers. the farmers. the
miners. the original workerS-they are
awarded Il subsistence, and nothing
more. 1t seems to be about time t.
stop fooling the farmer. As Il rule. the
only thing he knows about prosperity
is what he reads about it. around cleo
ton time.
