like talk of the cable. It is undeniable,
however, that the people of this country,
generally, would like te see the war take
"place, net from any malevolent feeling
toward either parly, but because they ex-
reap a profit from it in" increase of
business and wices of commodities. The
Russian grain fields w ill be closed le Europe
and English commerce will be distuibcd.
American manufactures Will be in demand
and the war will cause a waste hich will re
quire te be supplied. Business will become
brisker in anticipation of a demand which
mayjnet come and which islikcly lobe exag
gerated in anticipation of it. Simulators
will discount the future and cieale a de
mand ahead of its natural coming. This
Ib av deduction from experience, and is
likely te be verified again. Whether a w ar
between Russia and England should
naturally increase prices and create a de
mand for our products of field and facteiy
may net be clear ; but that the geneial
belief In such an Increase of demand will
stimulate production and Increase pi ices, is
hardly te be questioned. Se that if the
war takes place, which is very doubtful, a
boom of greater or Jess proportions is likely
te come te our industries for a time; and
se our peeple rejoice when they should net.
Communities seem te be gevei ncd by dif
ferent rules from theso which govern the
people in them as individuals. Any man
who would rejoice in the stufe of indi
viduals which gave him profit, would need
te de it secretly te escape reprehension ; but
he may openly rejoice at a conflict betw een
nations because it brings him profit, and
net be rebuked at all for It by the opinion
of a public, each member of which is
tarred witli the 6ame stick.
Underground and Ovcrhcatl.
There has been a geed deal of constitu
tional law and scientific aigument ex
pounded befere the legislative committees
this winter upon the subject of under
ground telegraph, telephone and electric
light wires. It is called out by the discus
sion of a bill which proposes te compel all
companies using such wlics in cities of
ever'10,000 population, te buiy their -wires
between the date of the passage of the bill
and next December 1st, whicli would likely
be a period of six months. The considera censidera
t ion of tyiis very important subject at Ilar
risburg, and the long range view of It by
the public have been semen hat beclouded
by the suspicion, en the ene hand, that the
bill in its original shape like some ether
radical lefenns was iutieduccd as a
"plncher,")omake U1030 interested in its
defeat ceme te teinis in ene way or an
other, and, en the ether hand, that the
corporations which would profit by the de-
feat of the ptopebed measure weie ready te
'uccemplieh that end by any means that
would be potential In a Pennsylvania
legislature, and by an appeal te ether
considerations than these of the public
.welfare. The manner in whicli the bill
has been manipulated has net been calcu
lated te dispel these suspicions.
; Against the bill are argued its uncensti
, tutlenality, tlie old complaint of intcrfer-
j)ttg with vested rights and taking pri
? Tjtte property without compensation, lis
"impracticability, in that it would be a
physical impossibility te lay the wires
underground within the prescribed time,
.tlws inability te transmit messages
under ground; and, finally, such cner-
, awus ceit of "the change that only the
meat powerful companies and monopolies
euw ciiect it and the business public
weald In the end suffer fiem it. On the
ether heud the dangereus nuisance of the
overhead wires has became se manifest that
&mq remedy for It Is imperatively de
.waadedby the highest considerations of
puteUe safety; the rapidly increasing num.

committee by District Attorney Graham,
which are likely te be the basis of the bill
recommended in the Senate. These are
that the councils of cities shall have the
right te regulate the companies using
wires, and in the exercise of proper police
power .chall compel them gradually te
put them uuacr ground, beginning with
the streets in which they are, thickest and
gradually extending the system, as It is
perfected, te every part of the city, This
will give the companies time ; it will offer
inducements for the improvement of the
underground system, and it will give the
citizens the protection they need.
Something definite must be dene before
the abuse complained of attains greater
dimensions and becomes se fixed an te

Lack of Light.
The New Yerk Siet applauded the ap
peintment of Mr. Fhelps te England when
it was made, but new is net se warmly in
clined te it. It is disposed te criticise Mr.
Phelps ; and disclose the icaseu why in its
statement that Mr. Tildcn "made no cffeit
te prevent the appointment of Mr. Phelps,"
though "it is tnte that Phelps haslengbeen
an undisguised and rather virulent feo of
.Mr. Tilden; but probably Mr. Cleveland
Wits net aware of this when he
determined le appoint him te the
most impeitant and desirable of our
foreign missions." And probably, loe, Mr.
Tilden was net awate that Mr. Cleveland
was thinking of .appointing Mr. Phelps ;
else he would have " made an effort te pie-
vent the appointment."
The &'n shlne3 for Mr. Tildcn, and
swears by him all the time ", but the illum
ination of Mr. Tilden and the Sun from the
White IIouse apparently is susceptible of
increase. And the Shu says it had better
ceme if Mr. Cleveland wants le cany Nuw
Yerk ; which is a threat.
Tin: secret is out Mrn. lilalne cilled en
Miss Cleveland te Hplte the Arthurs, whom
nhehad "cut"
It new turns out that the opposition te
the underground wires nt the present time
comes from the fear that in burying the wires
this coming summer, a fatal outbreak of
cholera will he precipitated. It is passing
ntrance that the public did net htumble en
this reason sooner, and thai its igunranee re
garding this particular pha.ne of the situation
had lobe dispelled by such a bcuovelcnl citi
zen as Cyrus W. Field. The Tact that Mr.
Flold has been long accustomed le borrow
the Ihery of philanthropy te serve monopoly
will gle his opinions an oppeslto weight
from that which he may han intended.

euro ene for themsehes Then will they
realize the truth of the ancient saw "a sound
mind In a sound body." The new departure
of Vassar may have a wondrous ciroet In cer
tain directions. A girl with a well-davel-eped
biceps will leek somewhat incongruous
in asleoeless dress, and clese acquaintance
with Indian clubn, dumb bell, and parallel
bars will makoher hands about as soft as a
wcll-baked brick. And should Mie bccoiue

mere than pessible that the near future will
seea troop of sun-browned Vassar maidens
watching with interest the pugilistic exhibi
tions that lake place in Madisen Kquare Gar
den, Jfew Yerk. Then there is another
phase of the question. It may lie that gym
nastics are te be cultivated as a pari of the
domestic economy training. This latter Is
the most distressing thought of all.
The AVramdicr modestly Inquires why it
Is that In the " Philadelphia conference of
the Methodist Episcopal church," the local
churches are se much " mixed ;" and the
districts are net made te conform te the civ 11
divisions of counties. Kaslly answered.
Until within a few years age the districts
wero arranged upon the plan that naturally
suggests Itself te the LUamincr. But the
country preachers found thomselvcs rotated
around in the country, and the city preachers
only exchanged tbe inore dcsirable pulpits
with each ether. The rural clergy broke
down the bars some years age and connectod
suburban and country territory in the dlfler
crent districts. If the Examiner will closely
study the Methodist conference it will Mud
what Bishop l'ess told the brethren the ether
day, that thore Is considerablo politics In it
Bosten's publia schools stand en the as
sessors' boe'ts at between $7,000,000 and
$8,000,000, or 1.15 per cent of the total -.ablation
of the city property. In Chicago, a
similar comparison of school property with
the total valuation gives 2.78 per cent in Han
Francisce 1.41 per cent ; in Cincinnati, 1.20
per cent ; in Brooklyn, 1.8 per cent Only
in New Yerk and Baltimore Is the sofceol
property less than 1 per cent of the loud valu
ation of the city, being about seven-tcnths of
I per cent in each case. It will be noticed
that the Western elites spend mere propor
tionately than the big towns of the East Con
cerning the Seuth whicli has rocelvod much
blackguarding for its illiteracy it may be
stated that in proportion te its population,
New Orleans has as many pupils attending
publle schools as Philadelphia; and in addi
tion It supports large private schools attoched
te religious ordera. New Orleans spends
mero money en publle education than Phila
delphia, chiefly because her teachers are paid
higher salaries. The average pay, incluslve
of principal" aud high school teachers, is $760
per annum. Fleilda has nioie than doubled
horscheol accommodations within the last flve
years. As the sunlight of truth lllumines the
Seuth It may be found en comparison, that
she is net tlie forlorn, illitorate section that
sonie of our Repuhlicau brethren would be

If all the productions of the earth were the
result of spontaneous growth, there would be
no occasion te speak of farming with any de
gree of comparison, nor would there be either
geed farmers or bad farmers, since thore
would be no occasion Ter any dreit en Ihe
part of mankind save the harvesting of the
spontaneous production. But it was decreed
at .first that, ns regards man, by the sweat of
his brew should he eat bread. This lmplles
the imposition of labor upon mankind in all
departments of Industry and se far as it re
lates te the farmer, Its application and direc
tion determines the comparative osltlen of
dldercnt individuals touching geed and bad
farming. The same sun shlnes, the same
dens distil, the same blasts threalen, the
same showers doseend, the same broezes
blew ever the domain of the geed and bad
fanner allke. Ne in resard te all natural cli
matic conditions, all farmers stand eqtial.
But thore are ethor characteristics that mark
the dlflorenco botween the geed and bad far
mer. The former is diligent, methodical,
skillful and enterprising, whlle the latter is
wanting In all theso, and lKtsldes is slothful.
The geed farmer attends carefully te the pre
servation, accumulation and intelligent use
of his manure; scesle the proper cultiva
tion of all crops, being careful that they are
planted in soaseu ; proventa the growth of
wTjeds and their soedlng, whereby future
annoyauce would be occasioned. He studies
the necessity of his situation ; provide suila suila
bie shelter and an abundance of ferage for
all his animals ; attends te the harvesting of
all crops In their season, and borero they ro re ro
celve Injury from oxixmire s provides all
vArletlet of cmln ami veeutable ler tlie
use of animals and his family ; furnishes the
fruits in their season and carefully watches
the necessities of the household In overy di
rection. Imnglne overythlngporformedthat
Is necessary te be performed upon the farm,
and in looking upon tlie director of theso

imaglue the loverso of all this neglect In all
things, a disregard for the exercise or sea
sonable labor, and you have a doplerablo pic
ture of peer farming, and in him who is man
aging aUairs is the embodiment of a peer
furmer. We niake no reference te any Indi
viduals, but if in loekinir upon thi mirror
which we have prosented any larnicr sees
the reflection of himself, It Is his fault and
net that of the mirror.
It should be remembered that It is geed
farming that pays. Bad fanning no ver pays,
and sowhateor Is attempted in thai linn
should be well dene. Ne farmer can afford
le ralse tw enty bushels of corn, flfleen bush
els of eats and eighteen bushels of rye per
acre, when by a proper cxcrclse of intelli
gence tliree times theso quautltles can be
grown. It Is little wonder that bad farming
leads te an flbandeineul hi busincs.-i bejause
it docs net pay. There are no mero inde.
pendent peeple in the world than geed far
mers, txx.-au.se they are successful. They are
a blessing in every community. It should
be the purpese or overy philanthropic man,
and especially theso who conduct tne prs,
te multiply geed farmers by diminishing
the bait .May the day of its very ei ideation
be speedily hastoued.
Ijirce ur Small Farm.
Frem the Ucrmantewu Telegraph.
The slze of fanns is variable according te
natural conditions. In New Knlgand, with
Its une en and broken surface, there is liltte
if any inducement fur the accumulation of
large numbers efacrns under ene proprietor
ship, but in the mero lecl and richly fortlle
expanse, of Western country thcrolsevory In
ducement te possess extensive areas. Such a
condition really becomes necessary In order
te keep pace with the true idea.ef Western
firegress. That there are advantages residi
ng from the iKmicssien of large farms well
managed cannot be denied, but at the same
Ume it must be admitted that there are ad
vantages thai ceme from small farms, some of
-niucn we Mian proceed 10 mention, email
farms niake near neighbors. Mankind
are naturally social beings, and the en
joyment el pleasaut Kedal relations it
ene of the most desirable tondltieim
of lile and with near nelghliers this
can be enjoyed te a much greater extent
than, where they are remote They make
geed reads; in a thickly settled country the
cmand for geed reads cannot be overcome.
They become necessary net only for ease of
transportation of farm crops, but for pleasure
driving, a demand which cannot be denied,
whlle in a country w lth only here and there a
dwelling and few taxpayers much less atten
tion Is paid te reads. They make plenty of
schools and churches ; an fncrcase of popula
tion alwaseroates a demand ler proper cdu
tlenal and roligteuM privileges, which, If en
joyed at all in a country ofcxtensho farms, is
ai great mconvenieneo. .Mere inoney is niaue
In proportion tothelaboroxpondodthauupou
a large farm. I.aber becomes mero cencen
tratcd and mero largely applied directly te the
production of crops than where much time is
required In traveling te tlie field of labor.
Fer the reason given aboe less labor Is re
quired, because vastly less time Is lest as has
been Indicated. With small farms all crops
are letter tilled than upon large farms, and
asacoiiscquence the crops are piopertlonately
larger. Less hired help In required, and with
less necessity for looking atler and watching
hired help ; the mind is less liable te be
kept in a constant worry and fret all the
tinie. Thore Is less necessity for oxpeudituro
forextenshe farm implements. Laber is
pushed forward hi season, and the farmer's
family have a better opportunity find time
for reading and the improvement of the
mind. Small farms gle comfort aud a fair
profit
The Queer Habits or Ant.
Flera the Cemhlll Magazine.
Most of the mcinbers of each community
of honey ants are active aud roving in their
disposition, and show ue tendency te undue
distension of the nother extremities. They
go out at night and collect nectar or heney
dew from the gall insects en oak troes. This
nectar they carry home and gl e it te the ro re
tunds or honey bearers, who swallow it and
stere it in their round abdomen until they
can held no mere. They pass their time
chlelly sleepiug and clinging upslde dew n te
the reef of their rosfdence. When the
workers romilre a meal they go up te the
nearest heney bearer and streke iter gently
with their antenme. The honey Dearer
thereupon throws up her haul and gives out
a large drop of tlie amber liquid. The
workers feed upon the drops thus exuded,
twoerthrco at once often standing around
the living heney Jar and lapping nectar te-
getiiorirem tne tips ei ineir uu voice i com
rade. The big red nut of Southern Eurepe makes
legularniave raids upon the nests of tlie
small brown nuts and can ies off the young
hi their puna conditleii. By and by tiie
brown ants natch out In their strange nests,
and never having known any ether llfe ex.
cept that of slavery, accommodate thomselv os
te it readily enough. The red ant, however,
is still only au occasional slavo-ewnor ; if ne
cessary, he can get along by himself, without
the aid of his Ilttle brown servauts. Indeed
there are froe states and slave states of red
ants skin by slde with ene another, as el old
liOInrylaml and Pennsylvania. In the first
the red ants de their work themslvcs, llke
mero vulgar Ohie fanners ; In the second
the get tiieir work done for them by their
industrious Ilttle brown servants, like the
aristocratic first families of Virginia befere
the earthquake of emancipation.
