Under Elate of February 21st, the 'Wye
lusing correspondent of the Elmira Ad-
Areitiser Curnish,es that paper with the. fel
lowing readable article in reference to the
woolen mills at Camptown :
Who is there, having_ knowledge of the
facts, who is not willing to !wird this
thatthe Susquehanna Valley is replete
with beauty, grandeur and - general worth.
. Also might they admit that tbcoalleys,
ntany that open in it, are almost
equally worthy, especially the historic
Wyalusing. 7 It is not, the purpose of the
writer in this article to dwell at length on
its besmties . lr 2 its many industries, but
to pass at ono from - the-happy and pros
perous folks of Wyalusing and proceed
southward along the baiiks of the stream,
from whence the name of their own is de

It is very evident from - the amaz
ing exhibit bade by tile- National
Treasury department of the details
of the exports of the Republic dur
ing the last fiscal year, that the pro
duction of our agriculture makes
vastly more .progress than all,the
combined forces of mining, manu- ,
factures and other domestic arts.
In brief, of all the exports of domes
tic merchandise to foreign countries
during that year, over $2. per cent.
were the products of "agriculture.
And yet thd World has . been ringing
for ten yearfi'liaat with the stupend
ous magnitude of American manu
factures and . - the extraordinary in
crease of their products. Now,"while
thiS cOntrast . does not in any degree
diminish the, ligh appreciation we
entertain for the industrial 'arts and
our.ardent desire to stimulate their
farther development, it . is manifest
to the commonest apprehension that
the farmers and planters are in reali
ty what_they have always claimed to
be—the bone and sinew of the
Some Atherican writers a few years
ago generated An idea that our do
mestic emigration had fairly reached
the Western limit of profitable culti
vation, and that all beyond . must be
regarded as a region of mountains
and deserW unavailable for tillage.
This . strange notice "was eagerly
caught up and repeated ,by the writ,:
ers and statesmen of England, and
they were. in the midst of a. happy
delusion that no* there was a favor
ble opportunity, for - the mighty de
velopment of grain farming in the
Dominion of Canada,
.when all of a
sudden the short crops of Europe
'caused an avalanche', of . American
'breadstutfs and . provisions to pour
out, upon the Old world from' this
country,.in such prodigioti4. quanti
ties as to elicit a general outburst'of
wonder•and, astonishment from the
-ablest writers for the'. English press
Last season the "agricultural inter
ests of .England sent to :America
some agents on a tour of investiga
tion as to the real extent and charac-,
ter of our agriculture. They were
practical farmers of the best kind,
according to the English type, and
; upon their retarn home this report
1 - was conclusive to the . Englishmind .
that the resources of
. this Republic
.for fanning purposes , were absolutely
unparralleled and limitless. A care
; ful perusal of the journalistic refer
-1 enees to these reports, leads us to
'tall attention to . the hitherto unno
ticed fact that `notwithstanding the
' enormous growth of the industrial
arts in the'l:Tnited States, our agri
cultural. development immeasurably
- exceeds them all: It is far greater
now than
.it . ever was before, and,
I what is mot important, it has be.
I come more excessive with- every
succeeding . census. .. Vast as . the
growth of our • iudustiial arts has

thirds of the merchandise demanded

traders argue that we need to encoiir
age the development - of foreign Mar
i kets for our-domestic prciduce.. But
our own . . judgment is very strong
that the' amazing development. of .
• ,our agriculture has, been chiefly stim !
ulated by-the increasing. rdmunera

like that, for it is nothinn• r' but-absurd

'sunlight can be seep. .
If buy windows are too expensive,
a very desirable substitute can be!
. had by placing two ordinary sized
windows side by side with a capa
cious ledge at the bottom -for seats
or for plants..
A room with a window like this
cannot fail to be cheery, and its ef
fect _in a simple cottage 'is quite
sumptuous. There is likewise in its
favor the fact that it is less exposed
than , the deep bay window to . outer

• One of the most extraordinary
facts connected with the recent pro-
greBs of this Republic is, , that during . •
the year. ending .June 30, 1880; the
value of the exports of domestic ag
riculture amounted to $683,010,976,
and constituted 82.9 per cent. of the
total value of exports of all ,! , Linds, of
domestic enterprisis' -in the 'United
States. We call especial. attention
to these figures as significantly illus
trating the amazing progress cif - our •
Natiobil agriculture, and the
,exteat
'to Abich it has become the chief re
liance.of :the general• trade and com- '
merce of -the• Republic, for it must,
be recollected that in addition to this
volume of exportation to foreign comp
tries, our farmers and planters fur.
nished all the cotton ascii in the do
mestic manufactures, all the wool
used in the home industries, all dies
breadstutfs conlnmed, all the live . :
stock, and all the meat and provis
ions. ~Of course we have no inters•
tioii of underriting the value of ban
ufactufes and mining to -a Nation
like ours. But it mast be evident
Ahat—notivithatandlog all the prog-
. _
ress we have made in the , rimary
land advanced arts of civili• ation—
this Nation is still devoted s over-..
whelmingly to 'agricultural . p suits
as fairly to, dwarf all other interests - .
In 18.60; and , for forty years preced
-1 ing, the exports of raw cotton from
I the - United States to foreign coun-
tries were fifty-three per cent. of,the
total value of the exports of doilies
tie merchandise.
,
But dtiring uscal year
ports of cotton 'amounted • to only
about twenty-six per cent of the to
tal. This was owing to the .remarke
able fact, that the exports of breid
stuffs rose from $24,422;310 in the .
year' 1860, ..to $288,036.835 in - the
year 1880, while in the smile 'period
the exports tf provisions increased
from $16,61 ,443 to no less. than
$127,043,242.' •
Grain-farming in . this country
seems tio.fitand in no need whatever
of encouragement or stimulation.
_lt
increaii(fs spontaneously so fast that
the only trouble is to provide .ade
gusto facilities for transportation.
But those brancheis of farming which
relate' to. the ,prevision trade offer
much better chances of Profit, .and
are more 'varied ,a'nd diversified in
character and details: Although not
so easily Understood as grain-farm
in-g, they nevertheless seem to - be ac
quiring. immense scope in p.ll parts of
the North and West, and .in the
course of the next ten years .there
can very little doubt that they will
raise the exports ofprovisions from
this country to an equality with the
exports of Cotton Or breadstuffs; . In
fact it really seems to
. us to . be the
true vocation of our people to the
great agricultdial , reliance of the civ
ilized world. ' TOay that this Re
public is destined 'to be the isorld's
granary - but: feebly meets the ease.
It seems our province .to feed snit

fact, • all 'other . National intereq's
dwindle away_into insignificance.
