The EaIme: VINO Follows Tn!s Advice Wa
be Wi1e.

All the testimony that comes tous Is
corsoborative Of cur advice to farmers
to plant food crops this year and re
duce the cotton acreage. Supplies OF
grain everywhere are shorter than
usual, and ten and halt million
bales crop OF cotton does not hold out
special inducements for another Dig
crop this year. The weekly letter
from 8 well kooH Chicago brokerage
fra declares that the visible supply Of
OF wheat, corn, osts and lard is snall,
er than it has been for long time:
and that the outlook IS for better
prices in all provision crops. Tnl: let
Ter is addressed to speculatcrs and ad
vises the purchase Of grain futures
because OF their belief in higher prices.
This is 2 matter the farmers are inter
es:ed in IS we'll as the sceeplators, and
# the outlook is for short supplies Of
fooj stufs and higher prices, then it
bahooges our farm ars to plant food
crops both to save having to buy them
at high prices with low priced cotton,
and also Tor the purpose OF having
some to sell at remuneraiive prices.
I! this war shall be prolonged it will
en- barrass the iood market less tban
any otaer. People must eat, and the
farmer With full barns and smoke

high, he is not only saved having 10
buy at higa prices, bu: car seII and

raise corn, wheat, oats, hogs, potatoes,

TIE Rish: Hon. Jos. Chamberlain,
Secretary OF State for the colonies
made an important speech on public
affairs at Birmingham, Eng, Friday
Ieveniog.
Mr.. Chamberlain, sfter deprecsting
the constant assertions in certain quar-
ters that Lord Salisbury was ''discred
tied" anG the government weak and
vsc;llaiag," said:
If foreign countries believe aud act
upon these statements, they will ind
themselves much mistaken, and that
courteous diplomacy and grSce'ul coz
.csss.o0s ate not incompatible with q
firm maintenance Of the country S
noGoc and interests
Tnen, declaring thst &c intended TO
make 5 'plain statement Of facts, un-
fettsred by the mysteries and reticen-
cies OF the diplomacy OF half E century
aso, which, without revesling secret
Gesolistions, should De 'understanded

he would scce9: the judgment of the
people SIS siliEgiy as that Of tie
wisssI diplomats! IL tee world.
Referring to the policy OF stric5 iso-
lat,on thst England mas pursued since
the Crimean var, ne remarked that
;his has been "perfec!ly justifable, p"
cut he added, ''the time has arrived
when Great Britain may be confront
I'D by 8 combination OF powers, and
cur first duty, therefore, IS to draw all
parts OF the empire into close unity,
and cur next to maintain the bonds Of

There is a powerful and general
patton" said Mr.. Chamberlain,
Speaking our language, bred OF our
race, and having interests Identical
with ours. would go so far as to
say that, terrible as war may be, even
war iIsslf would be cheaply purchased
If in great and noble cause the Stars
and Stripes and the Union Jack should
wave together over an Auglo-Saxon
alliance" prolonged cheers.)
1T IS one Of the mos. satisfactory
results of Lord Salisbury's policy that
at tie present time these two great
nations understood each other better
han they ever have done, since, over
8 century ago. they were separated by
the blunder Of a British government. "
