The Independent American Farmer.

Kansas City Journal
 When the American farmer rises early in the morning it is to look over broad and fertile acres that are his own. When he goes forth 1t IS to fields that no hu- man being can lawfully step upon with out his consent. When he gathers and gamers the harvest he stores up what, in a vast majority of eases, no greedy and rapacious landlord can take from him. It is all his. The proceeds of it are to clothe and feed him and his family and educate his children; to be the sup port of his old age and the heritage of his posterity. Looked at from every point of view, it is doubtful if there is anoth- CT human being under the heavens whc has more cause for carrying q light heart and a contented mind, for regarding the past with satisfaction and the future with hope, than the American farmer

Some writer in The Scientific American July 2s. 1877, says that "the inequalities. the mountains and the valleys of its surface could never have been produced in accordance with any laws for the deposition of sediment. nor by submarine elevation. but on the contrary must have been carved by agencies acting above water" J. Starke Gardiner, a great English geologist, asserts that a great tract of land formerly existed where the sea now IS and that Cornwall the Scily and Channel islands, Ireland and Brittany are the remains of It's highest summits
 A member of the stan of officers on the Brit iah ship Challenger, also gave it as his opinion that the great submarine plateau is the remains of the lost Atlantis. He and his brother officers found the whole ridge of Atlantis covered with volcanic deposits. Plato said the island of Atlantis once had an extent greater than that of Liby and Asia. and when afterward sunk by an earthquake became an impossible barrier to voyager's sailing from hence to the ocean,"

Plato described the island as densely popu- lated and having all kinds of animals, woods. fruits herbage flowers and minerals and as having temples, palaces, canals, mar bors and docks. The dwellings were built of colored stone. white, black and red There were ten kings with absolute power. The ca nals were % feet deep and Incredibly broad and long and the harbors and canals were full of merchant ships coming from and going to distant countries. Thousands of war chartots and vessels of war with sailors and soldiers could be furnished at call of the king of the royal city. The island was" says Plato. the way to other islands, and from the islands you might pass through the whole of the opposite continent which surrounded the true ocean. or as we now call it. the western continent.
 The empire of Atlantis brought into subjec- tion portions of other countries and probably sent out colonies to North America far up the Mississippi. to the great lakes and into the Ohio valley, and also into central and Soutn America.
 But they were idolators and presumably as wicked a recent story teller has pictured them, and. like the dwellers in St. Pierre Mar tInique, God saw fit to destroy them all. And with their destruction shut of communication between the eastern and the western worlds until the time came to begin Tepeopling the West with better of men.
 We cannot accept Platos chronology as re- ceived from the Egyptian priests by Solon, and yet 1t seems as If there were otherwise ele- ments of truth in his story.
