The New York Commercial Bulletin gives statistics in relation to the agri- culture of the State of New York, and applicable, as it affirms, to the States of Connecticut, New Jersey and Penn- sylvania, which are calculated' to arrest • the attention and suggest important re- flections. As to the relative decadence of farming in the Eastern -and Middle States, there can be no question, al- though one would have supposed that the States of New York and Pennsyl- vania would have made a better show- ing in this respect than they are cred- ited with. Taking horses, sheep, mileh cows and swine, the number of animals has diminished in New York from 1850 to 1874, from 5,155,000 to 4,008,000. The wool crop has fallen off 2,000,000 pounds. The five principal cereals have increased about 41 per cent. The city. and suburban population has in- creased at the rate of 34.93 per cent., while the rural population increased only at the rate of 2 per cent. Now, in ,1850, the State of New York was rich in its lands, its rural population and the inpendence ot the farmer. The soil wa fertile, the inhabitants industrious, eco omical and intelligent. Nowhere in the world was there, twenty-five years ago, a people that promised. more or better for their progress, improve- ment, pecuniarily, and satisfied -per- manency as the tillers of the soil. The Genesee Valley was the granary of the East in other sections, there was an equal, if not as noted, prosperity, while the State, as a whole, was popularly considered almost the garden of the country. Immense as has been the ac- cumulation of capital in the Empire State since 1850, the agriculturists are relatively poor, and but with little pros- pect of improving their condition. There is to be set off from, this gen- eral estimate the dairy business, which has very largely increased. The con- clusion drawn by the Bulletin is that the States above named are fast verging to a condition of things in which farming will virtually be confined todairy fanning and the growing of vegetables for city populations. The Bulletin charges this deplorable change to the railroads. Its argument is that the roads have so dis- criminatedin favor of the larger West- ern freights that the producers in these States have been overweighted in .the charges made them for freight on the oue hand, and dinh inthe cheapened prod- uct of the West on the other. There is no doubt, there can be none, as to the truth of this assumption, to a degree of the utmost consequence. But for all that has happened, depreciation of the pleasure and profit of rural life, the railroads are not responsible. The farm- er who owned his land, and had some money in bank; need. not have put a mortgage on his place because of the railroads. There has been too much anxiety to increase possessions; the old. - time prudence in expenditure has been abandoned ; speculative enterprises have been entered upon ; the sons have preferred trade to plowing ; . the daugh- ters have forsaken the kitchen for the parlor or the village. None of the young folks are willing to work as their parents worked, while they wish to spend more money than they can earn. All over the country the same thing is tree. Railroads have undoubtedly, by bringing town and country nearer to- gether, stimulated this phase of our civilization ; but the railroads have not created, they have only made more con- spicuous, the disposition to avoid work and live beyond one's meaus.—Provi- dence (R. I.) Journal. What Can be Done by Drain- age - A correspondent of the New York Times, writing from Goshen, N. Y., _gives an account of what can be done by a little enterprise in the way of con- vertiug swamps into good arable land. He says : "When the Erie Railway was being constructed the engineers encountered a vast morass in the town of Chester, four miles east of this village. It cov- ered nearly 500 acres, and was filled with treacherous quagmires and springs _that were almost bottomless. To con- struct a foundation for the road -bed of the railway across this great swamp re- quired the driving of piles to the depth of 100 feet, and the use of hundreds of thousands of loads of stones and dirt. The building of the mile of road neces- -sary to cross the swamp called for a greater outlay of money than any five miles of the road between Piermont and Jersey City. The tract of swamp was not considered worth the nominal tax collected from its owners, and. for 20 years after the road was . built re- mained in its noisome condition, the home of malaria and deadly fevers. " Twenty years ago a farmer con- ceived the idea of draining a portion of the tract and making it tillable soil. By ditching, he reclaimed 60 acres. The first acre he bought cost him $1. Wien it was found that the draining left as a soil the finest black muck, com- posed •aluoost entirely of vegetable mould, the price advanced to $17 au acre. After the sixty acres were re- claimed, the price still further increas- ed, until to -day as high as $1,000 has been paid for the reclaimed land. The ed ruling price is $500 an acre. The great value of the land' is owing to its extra- ordinary adaptability to the culture of onions. A crop of 800 bushels of onions to the acre is not uncommon, and the Greycourt onion meadows are eelebrat- w ed throughout the country. About 300 acres are under cultivation this year. and the success of the onion business in the meadows has led to the reclaim- ing of similar lands in other parts of the county, until it is believed that the onion crop of Qrauge county will an amount to 500,000 bushels this year. The average price received by onion raisers is $1 per bushel. The averaee and knees between the onion rows, pull- ing up the weeds that the rich soil calls rapidly into existence. - The weeding requires skill and care, as the soil is so loose that there is constant danger of tearing up the young and tender plants by their roots or removing their cover- ing of earth. The red onion is the va- riety grown most- successfully, as the dark muck gives the white onion a dirty hue which injures its marketgp1e. valve. When the onion tops are -eat the height of their growth, their odor fills the air for great distances. around." A Newsboy's Gift. Scarcely has the learned blacksmith been removed to a better world, than we have another scholastic wonder in the shape of a bibliographical newsboy. John King, who recalls to mind Elihu 'Burritt, in the singular nature of the two occupations to which he gave him- self, had not, however, the advantage of the latter in a sound body where- with to earn the - money which sup- plied him with books. He is a solitary -invalid, partially deformed, and a resi- dent of Cincinnati, where the peddling of daily papers supplies him with a meagre living. Attention was, fust called toe John King some few weeks ago by a'gi5 ade by him to the Public. Library oflmt own city. By dint of great exertions, hoard- ing up small sums, and watching book- stalls for literary bargains of all kinds, the poor newsboy had accumulated a library containing about 2,500 volumes. These books were to be the consolation of his old age. In spite of constant ap- plication during leisure hours, they ac- cumulated on his hands .faster than he could read them, for he was never able to resist the opportunity of purchasing a new " bargain" if the name of the author justified it. - He packed them all together in boxes, which he kept in the old rookery where he lived, and here spent his evenings, happy in the con- sciousness that his treasures were near. him, and hoping finally to arrive at the time when he would be able to do noth- ing but read. Suddenly the thought was suggested to him by the burning of a large building in Cincinnati that his books might fall a prey to fire, and itis resolution was at once taken to place thema in the safe keeping of the Public Library. King's magnificent gift was no sooner an accomplished fact than he became famous. Even in New York a desire was felt to know something of the his - .tory of the literary newsboy,.arid a re- quest sent to the Cincinnati Commercial by a prominent citizen that something might be learned in regard to him. That journal fulfilled the proposed task with promptitude, and it is from the in- teresting article which appeared in its columns that we are able to tell the story of. John King's life. The poor newsboy was originally a farmer lad, and but for an accident, bringing with it most lamentable re- sults, might now be a tiller of the soil in Cass County, Michigan, where his father's family still reside. At the age of 17 a kick en the left thigh crippled him for life. For three years he hob- bled around on crutches, when he was attacked by rheumatism, and Isis limbs so drawn up that he could get around only by crawling on his hands and knees. One day, while crawling about the room, he struck his right knee against a sharp object, which, with the 'help of.a blundering surgical operation, stiffened the limb for life. Both legs were now useless, and for five yetsrs the poor boy was bedridden. It was during this time that his passion for reading was developed, but, unfortunately, there were but few books in the neighbor- hood. What there were he greedily de- voured, and mentally resolved ithat if it should ever be in his power lle would, have a big library of choice books, all his own. It was not until he was 25 years old that King -could get off his bed ; and then for three years he hobbled about the house, but could do no work. Fi- nally, he went to Detroit ; and thenin the summer of 1868 to Cincinnati, a to- tal stranger, and a cripple for life iu both legs. A situation was obtained in a.tobacco factory. but hardly a fort- night had elapsed before he was taken down with the sivall-pox, which kept him in the pest -hoose for six months. He states that during this period his courage drooped;, and 'he cared very little, if life was to be so hard, to longer live. After leaving the- pest -house he went back, to the factory to ,work, and began living in the little, roughly -fur- nished rdom in the building at the cor- ner of 'Third and Sycamore streets, which is still his home. The work he had in the tobacco factory was such as is commonly done by children, and $3 a week was all that he could make by the greatest industry. It was with dif- ficulty that life could be - sustained in that time of high prices on so small a sum, and King's necessities soap drove him to look for other work, when he be- came a newsboy. In this new vocation life became easier -to the poor cripple. The work was lighter - and more remunerative. For ten years he sold newspapers in the streets of Cinciuuati, buying books, and laying up a little money besides. Dur- ing this time his even, quiet life suffer - but one interruption, which was of a most discouraging nature. A blind man who was a broom -maker, prevailed upon him to go to Sabina, Clinton County, Ohio, and with his savings, which then amounted to $50, buy a broom Lachine, hich he claimed they could . operate together with a handsome profitj`to Uoth. This was done ; but in a short time the firm failed, $150 in debt, King then came back to Cincinnati, and in time sent back to Sabina the full amount of the claims there existing against him d the blind man. His earnings were about $1 a day, and up to the time of a mmercial disaster in Cincinnati ngs went ' along quite r, smoothly, this failure, however, $600 was lost, er and above what he is likely to get ck. When King presented his collection of books to the Cincinnati Library, he reserved for his own reading about a Hired volumes, including works on ence, philosophy, and religion, which ows the, thoroughly cultivated nature his mind. Those who have had the ndling of the donation say that the ection has been made with dire and gment, and that it, is much more uable than an average private library he same nuthber of volumes. It in - des history and philosophy, some of best specimens from both ancient modern literature, biography, books travel, legal and medical works, co thi yield is 300 bushels to the acre. The By crop is almost invariably sold for cash ea as soon as it is ready for market, and as ba it matures early in the season, the far- mer is allowed abundant time to- keep his land in the condition necessary to its productiveness. • hu There are 17,000 acres of swamp sci land in the Walkill Valley which will sh eventually be converted into this muck of soil, which is the best in the world for ha vegetable raising. The land after drain- coli ing, is tilled with the slightest labor. jud Onion seed is sowu by a hand -drill, and val the greatest labor is _ in keeping down ; of t the weeds .after the plant begins to clu grow, This work is done by boys and the girls. Hundreds of these may be seen ; and in the growing season on their hands f of scientific treatises, public documents, books of general reference, religious works, volumes of the best-magazines,'a variety of school -books, and an occa- sional volume of poetry and fiction. There are several very old volumes, one a Natural History bearing the imprint of " London, 1635." The books are all in good condition, and are of ` a charac- ter that renders the collection a valuable addition to the Public) Library. King is only 39 years old, and, though ar.ppled, comparatively strong and healthy. It is quite possible that he will yet collect another library that shall rival in numbers and value the one he has just disposed of. In the meantime he will probably go on living in his old home, a comfortless little back rodm with a single window, where he has lived for the last ten years, doing all his own cooking, washing and mending. He is not by any means a hermit in his tastes, however, but has quick, warm sympathies with his com- rades in the newspaper line, as is shown by the energy and perseverance he has - displayed in his position of secretary of the Newsboy's Union. As a result , of the establishment of this association, he states that the newsboys of Cincinnati are an entirely different class from what they were six or seven years ago. The boys ot that time have disappear- ed, and those who have taken their places have been much better cared for and instructed, and show it daily in their conduct. In his own way John Bing has been a benefactor to the hu- man race. Now that the world has found him out, itis to be hoped that there will be many to help him in the good work he has in hand, and that his old age, when it comes, will not be left comfortless, like that of so many hum- ble workers who give themselves to the service of their kind, and receive neither help nor encouragement in return.— Front Harper's Weekly. How Business is Now Done. The old methods of doing business are fast passing away, and whether the change is for the better or not, those who wish to achieve success must abandon the old and fall into the new. A revolution has been wrought in such matters, and the old methods are daily becoming obsolete. One - hundred thousand commercial agents .or drum- mers are now employed to travel the length and breadth of the eountry in the interest of their employers, and in this fast age no one, unless he holds a monopoly of some good thing, can wait for customers, so great is -the oompeti- tion in every line and branch of busi- ness. As pertinent to this subject, the Boston Post says: " The ways of traffic are not the old ways ; wooden ships are going out of date, and sailing vessels are giving place to steam ; currency is superseded by commercial credits ; the cable and telegraph have brought mar- kets close together ; railroads derive their freight profits from the perfect- ness of their terminal facilities ; men buy and sell by sample before products Viand manufactured stocks are manu- factured stocks are moved ; prices and rates - change oftener now in a day than they used to do in a week or a month ; everything tends to economy of busi- ness friction, to bringing things down to the finest point by the shortest way, to the performance of the most work by the least machinery." Cornmeal Muffins, (Raised). Three quarts white Indian meal ; 3 tablespoonfuls yeast ; 1 cup flour ;,1 quart scalding milk ; 3 eggs, beaten to a froth, yelks and whites apart ; 1 table- spoonful white sugar; 1 tablespoonful lard.; 1 tablespoonful butter; 1 table- spoonful salt. , Pour the milk boiling hot upon meal ; stir well and leave until nearly cold ; then beat in gradual- ly the yeast, sugar and flour, and set in a moderately warm place ; it should be light enough in live or six hours ; melt, without overheating the butter and lard ; stir into the batter, with salt, lastly beaten eggs ; beat altogether three minutes ; put in greased muffin rings ; let these rise on the hearth for a quarter of an hour, with cloth thrown lightly over them ; bake about 20 minutes in a quick, steady oven, or until they are of a light golden brown. Send at once to table, and in eating thorn, break, not cut open. Molasses Fruit Cake. Qne and a half pound flour ; 1 pound. powdered sugar ; 1 cup, of molasses ; 1 cup sour cream ; 5 eggs, beaten very light ; 1 pound raisins, seeded and cut into thirds ; 1 teaspoonful cinnamon and cloves ; } grated nutmeg ; tea- spoouful ginger ; _I- pound butter ; 1 full teaspoonful soda, dissolved in hot waterj; cream, butter and sugar ; warm the*hisses slightly and beat into this with 4Pices and cream, add the yelks of the egg's, stir in the flour and the whites alternately, the soda water, then the fruit, well dredged with flour ; beat all together vigorously for at least three minutes before putting into well butter- ed tins to be baked. It will require long and careful baking, the molasses rendering it liable to burn. Woman's Perfidy. A Madison paper gives a fearful ac- count of woman's perfidy. A young man went to take his girl for a walk, but found that she had not done her milking. With a gallantry that does credit to the Madisouian young man, he volunteered to do the milking for her, while she was making her toilet. After he bad got her milking done, and hung the milk stool on the bars, and set the pail of milk in the kitchen, washed his hands at the pump with soft soap, and wiped them on the tail of his duster, he discovered that she had gone to a circus with another young man who did not know enough to extract milk from a milk wagon. The de- serted young man kicked over the ' milk pail, and went his way a sadder man. • Sheep and Mutton. A sheep grower says : " It is folly to keep old sheep. They should be turned off to the butcher in their prime. It does not take half the amount to fatten them. When they get old and thio, in order to put them in the condition for slaughter, the whole structure must be rebuilt. Four sets of lambs are all any ewe should bear ; this will bring her to five years, and this is the age when, with a little extra care, she will round up to a full carcass. Exceptions may be made when the breed is scarce, and the blood is more desirable than any- thing else." NATIONAL POLICY.
