''Yet," says' Plutarch, he did not suffer his State, by the promiscuous multitude that flowed in, to be turned into confusion and left without any order or degree, but di vided the commonwealth' into three distinct ranks the ; noblemen, ; the husbandman, and the' artificens. To the nobility he committed the'care of religion, the choice of magistrates, the teachibg and dispensing of the laws, the whole city,.being, as it were, re duced to an exact equality, the nobles excelling the rest in honor, the hus bandmenin profit, and 4he artificers in numbers.': . In this re1 cognition ' pf intelligence by giving the i nobles the dispensing and interpretation of the law, in allowing the husbandman just and' reasonable returns for his labor, and in the recognition of the neces sity of diversified industries by hav ing an ex-cess of the population artifi cers, ThesuS laid' the foundation for the greatness and fame attained by that "small Greek State, whose civiliza: 4 tion has exerted' and still exerts a powerful influence upon our modern civilization. This 'policy adopted by him in founding Athens, although this event is clouded in the mistk ' of ' rs mote antiquity, stands out in bold' re lief as a beacon to . statesmen Hnat the certain way to make a country,. pros perous and happy is to" lay dee)p the foundation for a prosperous agricul ture, by insuring to the husbandman remunerative returns for the product of his labor, and to encourage the es . tablishment of manufacturing, ' me chanical and mining industries. With a prosperous agriculture the' tendency is toward the division of land into small holdings, with the natural result of an ever-increasing productive capac ity of the soil to sustain an increasing population: While, as we readily perceive, under the unfortunate con dition now existing in this country, the tendency is to the concentration of land in the hands of the few, who become, too often, absentee landlords, with a deterioration of the capabili ties of the soil, while the tenant tiller, to all intents and purposes, becomes a slave, though not held in actual bondage. A writer in Harper's Magazine of April last, discussing in an able paper the condition of agriculture, , says i " There : are steadily accumulating conditions, which will, in the near future, make imperative the adoption in this country of closer and more en lightened methods of agriculture than now generally obtain among our farm ers." We are all ready to acknowl edge that there is a sad lack of intel ligence and intelligent methods among our farmers. We have recently had the experience of seeing the farmer prefer a. visit to the circus, to attend ing a good agricultural fair. We saw last week more farmers in Con cord to see the circus than attended the fair during the four days of its continuance theprevious week. Yes, there is a sad lack of intelligence among the farmers; yet it will be im possible for them, as a class,, to attain that degree of intelligence or anything approaching it, which will enable them to adopt scientific methods, so long as agriculture is weighed down, hampered and made so unprofitable by existing evils; ana tne longer these evils con tinue, the less possible it becomes for them to become an educated class, pursuing closer and more enlightened methods. Their efforts must be directed to securing a subsistence for themselves and families. That this is the main effort of the average farmer over, tne entire country is too true. 'Tis true some succeed, but they either do so by the strictest economy, deny ing themselves of life and leading a uie oi narashrp and toil no one can envy, or by their fortunate convenience to market, being thus enabled to suc ceed by growing specialties. Mr. B. F. Johnson, a farmer and an able correspondent of the Country Gentleman, says in his letter to that paper of October 3rd: "The corn, oats, and hay crops of 1889, for the black soil counties, are scarcely more than two-thirds of the average per acre of the last five years, while prices for these and neat cattle are 30, if not 40 or 50 per cent lower. Meintime no small portion of these products are raised by tenant farmers who pay some, from two-fifths to one half ot the crop harvested, and others from p3 to $4 and even $5 per acre for the total acreage of the farm. This state of things is a distressing one for the average tenant farmer, while the outlook is scarcely less encouraging to the farmer who owns and cultivates his acres, inherited or the accumulated fruits of his hf e-long labors. Mean time taxation is rather increasing than diminishing. There is no r? auction in the salaries of the public officers, and while the business of county and State courts has declined from 50 to 75 per cent, the number of judges and costs of courts have been increased. Such being some of the leading features of the agricultural situation m counties on the black soil of IllinoisV'o'ne of- the world's most fertile' and favorably situated tracts of land, what can-' be the ' state of af fairs where soil la less productive and the sitiiat ion ' less o1" be desired?" Go where we' will; the same cry of distress -of unrequited toil comes from the agricultural classes, that we hear com ing from the highly favored region Of Illinois. i v- ;:r. ; "'"f 'Injudicious laws have been framed, powers have been granted by the law making power, resulting in these evils under which we labor. The tide of the moneyed - power through these grants and privileges and the concen tration of capital are about to over whelm our boasted civilization. . We are reaching a. momentous crisis Jn our history. , .We cannot, if we would, close, our eyes to the impending rev olution between the wealth producers rnd the moneyed power.

'they cannot be. thrust aside. If 1 shall have succeeded in making you pon der them, I shall have accomplished my purpose. Thought leads to ac tion. IMPORTANT CROP DECISION. . A very important case has just been decided by the Supreme Court at this term. At the last term of the court it was held in the case of Core vs. Smith that wherever land is under mortgage the crops raised on the land by the mortgagor belong to the mortgagee. The result of this decis ion was proving disastrous to the pub lic and was speedily putting an end to the system of lien- bonds to mer chants for advances on the crops and for the purpose of making the crops. So at this term of the court in the case of Killebrew and Bullock vs. Hines, the court, Judge Shephard writing the opinion, have overruled the decision of Core and Smith and decided that the crops on the mort gaged land belong to the mortgagor, and if the mortgagee claims and de sires the crops he must take possession of the premises.

Although the questions involved aroused much in terest and called out a large foreign vote, yet the loafers, ballot distributers, bribers and heelers, who crowded "about the poll ing places under the old system, were conspicuously absent, and the voters were for once able to cast a ballot, quietly and amid decent surroundings. A. Washington correspondent of the Atlanta ' Journal gets off the following lottery story : Gould, Banker," is a sign over a basement, door on F street. L Gould is the representative of the Louisiana State lottery in this city, and is doing a land office business. He has hundreds of sub-agents who visit the de partments and sell tickets, and it is esti mated that at least $35,000 is sent away every month for tickets from Washing ton alone. It is quite the thing here for everybody to invest The following story, which is credited to General Beaure gard, the leading spirit in that great gambling scheme, may serve as a pointer worth serious consideration. One of the General's old soldiers sent him five dol lars with the request that the General forward a winning ticket, as he was al ways at his post during the war and never disobeyed orders. " I came out of the war with hardly clothes enough to cover my nakedness," he added. The General added: "My Dear Comrade I send you a ticket I hope you will draw a prize, and offer you this advice : If you stick to the Louisiana lottery as well as ydu'didto the Southern Confederacy you will nor have clothea T enough to wad a shotgun."

'Cooke, TJ. & A., and the principal of the Indian school at Carlisle will visit Western North Caro- . ... , Una next December to inspect the lands which Mr. Ewart has offered the govern ment through his constituents, for-Gero-nimo's band. Mr. Ewart says a military post will be established near Ashevflte if the Apaches are sent there and that Gero nimo and the worst of his braves will be closely guarded. He seems to think it will be a fine thing for the Indians to locate in his district as they will also bring the fort and the soldiers. It is said that the makers of the big globe which is now on exhibition in Paris found it necessary to make parts of Africa over twice on account of important geo graphical news received from the Dark Continent. Some Belgian map makers had a still livelier experience two years ago. They prepared a large Map of the Congo States five times for the press, and withdrew it each time for additions and corrections. Mr. Habonicht, editor of a most notable map of Africa, says, in his preface to the second edition, that "the map of Africa is never completed,- and that no mail arrives from the big continent without bringing new work for the ' map makers." . ; A letter sent from the postoffice at Briar Creek, Wilkes county, N. C, on October 16th last, was registered at that office and a ten-cent Confederate stamp, containing the vignette of Jeff Davis, was placed upon the envelope as a registry free. The envelope was a United States stamped envelope bearing the well-known features of Ben Franklin. The letter was received received at the office of destina tion, Statesville, N. C, inclosed in the usual registered package envelope, and then it was that the peculiar mistake of the postmaster at the office of mailing was discovered. Evidently Confederate stamps, though slightly out of date, still retain their popularity in that region. Washington Post. . A man of thirty years, who gave his name as William Savage, .while filing an application a few days , ago for a position on the force in the office of the Board of Public Commissioners at St J osepl r Mo., began looking over the Rogue's Gallery and suddenly snatched a picture out of the books and said it was his picture, taken thirteen, years ago in Paterson, N. J. Secretary- Lawrence looked up the record of the 'picture and ound it "was that of William Savage, wanted in Pater son as an heir to a fortune of 50,000, his parents having died twelve vears ago.

Ivan Dzarschy Orleff, from Buda Pesth, has arrived in New York, and will be exhibited in a museum. He is known as as the "transparent man," and his .case has interested some of the greatest medi cal authoritios of Germany, among whom are DraVircho w and Bergmahn, of Berlin, physicians to the royal family. The pe culiarity of Herr Orloflfs case is that the bones of his legs, which are very small and thin and greatly deformed, are so soft and cartilaginous that with the aid of a candle or other light in a darkened room one can look right through the limbs and observe the workings of the blood vessel, both veins and arteries, which run through the bony tissue. He is not exactly trans parent, but he is certainly translucent, and a number of physicians who met the little fellow were very much astonished at "what they saw. According to the medical authorities this softening of the bones, which seemed to begin when he was about a year old, is extending over his whole system, and in a few years he will be perfectly limp and helpless. They say it is, due to the loss of the chalky substance in the bony tissuej and it has already more or less affected the whole skeleton. ALAS! THAT IT SHOULD BE SO.

Mr. Joseph Pulitzer.who, in his youth, was a reporter, had a strong desire to-be-come a lawyer. He saved a small Sum of money and began his studies, but his funds were all gone before he had com pleted his preparation for the bar. ' He needed two hundred dollars more to carry him to the end and support him, until he was made a full fledged member of the bar. But trv as he would, he could not obtain the necessary funds, and with disappointment unspeakable, he was ob liged to relinquish his studies and return to newspaper reporting. But one's misses sometimes mean more than one's hits, and although ilr. Pulitzer was by reason of poverty deprived of a chance to make fame and fortune at the bar, he has achieved one of the greatest newspaper successes ever known ia 'American journalism.' Nevertheless', tho memory of his early struggles have never left him, and his establishment of twelve free scholarships, costing him $15,000 a, year, indicates his sympathy with the struggles of poor boys for a higher educa tion. -XocZies' Home Magazine.
