If our people would raise all they could with out going in debt, and raise oorn, peas, wheat, oats, rye, rice, syrup and pota toes, the expense of farming could be curtailed at least fifty per cent, and our people could live easier and better.

A visit yesterday to the seene of Tuesday's fire revealed a melanoholy and atiu dangerous atate of anira; in a fearfully locking open spaee, about two hundred yards s-iuare, was to be seen the black, scorched and smoking re mains of fifty thousand dollars worth of the country's best product, that went up in smoke the day before. Two str etnas of water had been kept playing on the burning portions of the platform all of Tuesday night and during yester day, but the eotton was still biasing in several plaoes. A great many bales had been torn to pieces, that the fire that had eaten its way into them might be reach cd, and a quantity of loose burning eot ton was being blown about the premises It was feared that the wind, whioh waa brisk, would carry some of this flaming eotton across the squares and communi cate fire to houses and other eotton that had been moved the day before for safo- ty. A large foroe of hands was kept at work, and every little outbreak was promptly attended to, but even then it was with difficulty that the fire could be kept under. Large trenohea were dug yesterday, and much of tbe burning matter was thrown into them and cov ered up. Nothing that had been sub jected to the fire oould be trusted, ani whole bales were thrown into tbe eotton grave. This of course, will be tken out when all possibility of danger from it shall have passed. Quite a number of itB were taken to neighboring branches and thrown in, but the fire wa not extinguished It was found neoet sarv to take the hoops from everv one that bad caught and thoroughly saturate it with water before it oould be eooouat ed safe.
