The Fenian Obsequies in Philadelphia. At a meeting of All the divisions of the Fenian Societies, held few days since, it was unani mously agreed that on the first of the new year the organizations in oar city should hare a grand parade. From what we hare been told, it would seem that the design is to fol low the hearses containing three coffins, in which are supposed to be enoased the remains of Allen, Larkin, and Oonld, and by this pub lio demonstration to do honor to the memory of the dead, and inspire the living to new acts of patriotio valor. So far as the first object is conoerned, it is certainly meritorious. If a number of Irishmen see fit to meet together and pay a tribute of respect to their dead fellow-countrymen, it is a proceeding whioh reflects credit on their patriotism. So far, therefore, as the procession and obsequies are conoerned, we think that the Fenians deserve praise. The men whose memory they thus respeot died for the cause which called their associations into life. They carried into prac tice their purposes, and expiated their mis take by a felon's death. As honest martyrs for a cause in which they really beliered, their names should be mentioned with rererent affection by their fellow-Fenians. While, however, we commend the respect thus intended to be shown, we most earnestly condemn the use to which the occasion will be put. The exhibition of respect for the dead is, we anticipate, only the ostensible object of the demonstration. The opportunity will not be allowed to pass without an attempt to raise some funds for the Fenian cause, and to excite yet more the passions of the members against the Government of Great Britain. We most heartily oppose any further lery of contribu tions on the members of the associations. Already they hare given with unprecedented liberality. From the class least able to bear it has been wrung a proportion of the capital whioh would not be tolerated by any but a most credulous and enthnsiastio people. Hundreds of thousands of dollars hare been raised, spent, and utterly dissipated. To-day we ask what good has been accomplished by all the expenditure of the hard savings of the Irish-American citizens f It has been spent to support impostors, or it has been ' lavished in expeditions which do nothing but harm; it has cost the lives of three brave men whose funeral it is proposed to at tend. It has sent to penal servitude scores of rash Irishmen. It has placed in jail dozens more, and unless it be at once discontinued, it will send to the gallows a far greater num ber than hare yet been launched into eternity. By means of these demonstrations the Irish men at home are deceived. They are induced to rashly attempt fruitless and hopeless re volts, and it is certain that if their oourse be How continued, England will send all taken prisoners to a felon's grare. Let the occasion of these obsequies, then, be made an opportu nity for a display of sound common sense. Let the leaders of this morement, while honoring and mourning for the dead, determine not to send any more brare men to such a doom. If some of them would speak like men of reason, calmly and dispassionately, it '; would check the wild enthusiasm and save the lires of hundreds of those who, if money and professions be forthcoming from America, will risk and lose their lires in a really hope less cause. ' , ' ! Death op Rhak-Admieal Palmeb. All of our oitlzens will learn with sincere regret that Rear-Admiral James S. Palmer died on the 7th inst., of yellow fever, at St. Thomas. Many of onr readers were personally ac quainted with that offioer, he being intimate in our city and for many years a resident among us. lie entered the naval service on January 1, 1825, and since that time has been for fifteen years on sea Bervice. He was born in New Jersey, from which State he was appointed, and rose g'adually through all the grades of the navy, until he reoeired his pre sent commission in July, 1806. He was an officer of great oourage and experience, as a gentlemen courteous, a sincere friend and thorough patriot. His untimely death will cause much sorrow in many of the circles of our city society. Thb Frightful Accident in New York yes terday, an aooount of whioh we have already given in The Evening Telkobapu, should at last arouse the authorities to the dangers of tenement houses. There is a law which re quires that all such should have a fire exit but it is a dead letter. Tbjough the parsimony Of the owners and the carelessness of the tenants these lires were lost, and hundreds more may be at any moment. A in tue oa3e of boilers, so it is with all the dangers to which we are subjected. It requires g0ta9 fearful loss of life to make us conscious of our Insecurity. The matter should receive iuiine Jiate attention. Advices from Bonn Carolina indicate that sufficient votes hare been cast to secure a con vention. This was the most doubtful of all of the Southern States, and taken in connec tion with the assurance of Congress that reoonstrnotion shall never go backwards, is a harbinger of the peaceful and thorongh reor ganization of the South at an early day. Wb are glad to fee that General Grant has withdrawn his reoommendatlon of the contem plated inorease of twenty per cent, in the sala ries of the Department clerks. lie has now placed himself squarely on the reoord as favor ing economy in every branch of the Govern ment. No aspirant for publio favor can do otherwise with safety. EDITORIAL CORRESPONDENCE. Kansas and Its Products-Sheep Hus bandry Woollen Factories Wheat The Limestone Formation Corn the Great Crop of (ho West Miscellaneous Farm Products Farming Interests versus Speculation Lawbencb, Kansas. Deo. 13, 1807. I have spoken somewhat at length In my former let ters of the adapted ness of Kansas to stock raising and dairy purposes. I find that sheep husbandry Is attracting pretty general atten tion from the people, and that the number or sbeep In tbe State Is being rapidly Increased. Large flocks are being almost dally driven into tbe southern part of tbe State from Illinois, Indiana, and Onlo, where sbeep at present are very cheap. Several woollen faciorlos have been established two In tbls city, one In Fort Scott, ouo at Leroy, in the Neosho Valley, and others, I believe, In the northern portion of the State. I visited one of those In this city tbe other day, and saw some specimens of various kinds of cloth, blankets, etc, which would have done no discredit to our EaHtern factories. The machinery was, lu part, of Phila delphia manufacture. I was pleased to loarn that both the establishment I vUltod, and Its neighbor, were doing well, finding a ready market for their cloth, and at remunerative prices. The attention of the Western people is being quite generally at tracted to tne subject of manufactures, and many branches are already well established Tbe great distance from the manufacturing centres of the East gives the Western manu facturer the advantage of a tariff over his East ern competitor, besides the additional compen sation, In many enses, of being nearer the sources of the raw material. For Instance, at tbe woollen mills here In Lawrence they can buy all the wool they need at from fleen to twenty cents a pound, according to q,lity. The cost of keeping sheep In Southern Kaxsas Is hardly more than that of wulchlng and herd ing them. The pasture ranges are boundless, and the winters are so mil J that the sheep rarely need foddering. Kansas farmers could mako money as fast as men ought to by raising slieep, and selling wool, even at twenty-live cents a pound, lu Eastern markets. Toe greatest draw backs to sheep raising here are the depredations of dogs and wolves. The true method of manage ment Is to hare shepherds to attend the flocks by night aud day, niter the oriental method. When Kansas whs tlibl settled 11 was the gene ral Impresblon among the early Immigrants that winter wheat could not be successfully cultivated hero, but that notion has long since been exploded, und the mt-u who are getting rich the fastest here are the farmers who for a series of years I live turned their attention to the growing of winter wheat. The crop, when well and seasonably put In, Is a very sure one, and the yield Is laigo. Thirty bushels to the acre are frequently obtained, and forty, and even fifty, aie not uncommon. There Is mom or less ol lime In the soil even of tbe bottoms, for the bin lis are composed of limestone rock, which dlsl ulejiratcs by the notion of the ele ments una enriches the alluvial deposits below Thus the best wheat crops in this nolghborhooi are ralf.ee! In tbe bottom lauds situated near the conference of the VVukauusa and tne Kansas rivers. Lime may be binned along the bluffs almost anywhere, and in this fact Kansas has an element for the restoration of her soil, when worn, which In after years may be of great value. The West does notyet know what an exhausted soil is, but the time Is coming when that oondl. tion will have to be provided for, and then the ease with which such a fertilizer as lime ou be obtained will be a matter cf great importance to Kansas. Corn Is the natural product of the West. It Is the great staple. With a 0od crop of corn the Western farmer feels safe and contented. It furnishes an excellent article of food for him self and family. It makes pork. and beef. lie feeds It to his oxen and horses. It supplies the place of food for his cattle and sheep In winter. Other crops may fall, but if the corn yields its increase, the great operations of the farm go on. Corn at the West Is a different article from that at tbe East. The stalk Is stouter and larger, the kernels deeper, the ears larger, and the whole plant is gotten up on a soale of richness and amplitude corresponding to the fertility of the soil from whioh it springs. I have rode through a Kansas cornfield in September, on a tall horse, and found the stalk still towering above me, while tbe ears were 'just In fair plucking distance When I was a boy we used to hoe corn twice or three times In Western New York, and very tiresome, back aching work It was, too. There la no such "nonsense" praotlsed "out West." The horse and the plough or cultivator do the entire work. Tbe weeds have no show; the oorn grows too fast, and soon overshadows and chokes them out. "Sod" corn receives no culti vation whatever. This is corn grown the same year of breaking up the sod. The methods of planting It are euner to mop tne aerneisjust at tbe edge of and In the furrow, during ploughing so that they will come up between the furrows or else to cut deep gashes in the Inverted sod and drop the corn therein. In a favorable year such corn will yield as high as thirty or forty bushels to the acre. Should the season be a dry one, however, the crop thus planted Is likely to iall. Corn grows equally we'i, apparently, upon ttmhlch Dralrles and upon the bottom lauds. the difference being In i'avor of the high prairie In a wet season, and In favor of the bottoms In a dry one. The cob Is smaller in Western corn, according to the size of ti e ear, than it Is In Eastern. Fifty-six pounds of shelled corn, or seventy pounds of corn in the ear, constitute a bushel. Western corn is said to be less oily than Eastern. It is fed here with Impunity to horses engaged In all kinds of work. Often times corn In the West Is left to stand in the field ungatheied during the entire winter. The cars hang down, aud tbe thick, enveloping husk proves an ample protection against the elements. The lav- rite com crib out here is a huge four-square pen, built up of rails or long poles. Some farmers Indulge in the extrava gance of a roof over it others do not. In some portions of the West, where stock-raising is carried on on a large scale, the corn-fields are harvested by first turning the fattening cattle into them, aud after they have consumed and broken down the com, then following wltti nogs to glean the remnauls. Corn has au element of beauty as well as of use. uaraty any sight, Is more beautiful than that of a great fluid of corn, dark aud rloh In color, Its tassels waving and Us myriad leaves rustling in the wind. Wetra people say that In the height of the season they can hear the oorn grow. Id) not vouou. for tue truth of the statement. With i wd culture the farmer Is tolerably sure or from fifty to seventy five bushels per acre, aud one hunJrel bushels are not rar, Totatoes, both sweet and Irish, grow here In great aunlmce. The la'.ttr are In good de mand this winter lor the market west along the rallroa 1, u d brlog a high p ice. The bottom lands are admirably adapted to tbe growing of hemp, and It Is cultivated quite extensively in some parts of tbe State. It ha always proved a very profitable crop in Mis souri, and I do not know why It should not pay equally well hre. Preparing It for market is said to be very hard and disagreeable work, so much so that it used to be averred thatWii a laborers would not engage in It. I have never seen any work yet so hard that wblte men would not do It, if paid enough for It. I opine "breaking" hemp will prove no exception to the rule. Tne great (rouble In Kannns, as elsewhere in our country, srems to be tbe growing disincli nation of so many people to be contented with the moderate gains and placid experlenoe of a ftrmer'u life. There is too great a tendency to aggregation in tbe towns. Those who ought to be successful cultivators of the soil, and thus adding to the common wealth of the commu nity, ere speculating In corner lots or town sites. Not one acre in ten, even In Illicitly set tled counties, like this county of Douglas, of which Lawrence is the sblre town. Is cultivated and this too when corn Is worth fifty cents a bushel, potatoes a dollar, and wheat two dol lars and a quarter. There never was a finer opening for industrious, hard-working farmers tsan In Kaunas at tbe present time. R illroad enterprises are being prosecuted with great vigor in several sections of the State, and a constant flow of immigration Is pouring in. Lands are cheap, and farm products aro high and in good demand. Thousands of men who are clinging to our great Eastern cities, barely securing a fcubslstenoa, might here speedily rise to competence and wealth. T. D, T.
