lagers, and Farmers who have " happened

Mr. Smith.—Trade is very dull nowa
days; I don't, sell half as muck. as I did
five years ago.
Mr Jones.—Good reason. Things 're
so high, we can't afford to buy. You
charge such awful prices, Smith.
Mr.Smith.—Can't help it. I have to
pay so much more. When I sold sugar
at 10 cents a pound, I made a cent, a
pound, and I only make a cent now on
20 cents, and this cent profit don't go so
far to keep my family.
Mr. Brown.—l buy just as much as ev
er. I don't see as there is much change.
I used to sell my 000 bushels of wheat for
72 cents a bushel, or $450. Of this $250
went for family store bills, and $2OO to
pay off my farm debt. Now, when I sell
for $1,50 per bushel, or $9OO, it takes
about $5OO for store bills, and leaves $4OO
to pay off the debt. In fact, these high
prices suit me. I wish Mr. McCulloch
had kept out of the Treasury, for he
threatens to make Greenbacks par, and
knock down prices.
Mr. Price.—l don't see as it makes
much difference. If there is twice as much
money going, and everybody gets twice
as mach for everything he raises, and
pays twice as much for everything lie
buys, it all comes out square at the end;
and there is this gain in the operation;
those who save money, or make a profit,
make double, as neighbor Brown explains
about paying his farm debt.
Mr. Butler.—That'a so.
Mr. Greene.—So I think.—Mr. Moore.
—So do I.
Mr. Baker.—There is a little drawback.
I keep the accounts of Widow Roberts,
who has the mortgage on Mr Brown's
farm, and the *4OO be pays, don't go on
ly half so far in supporting her, and edu
cating her children.
Mr. Travis (the School Teacher.)—Yes
it does, for I only get $3O a month for
teaching Mrs. Robert's and Othir's chil
dren, and I used to get $25 with wheat at
75c.
Rev. Mr. Corey.—And I only get $BOO
a year, while I always had $5OO with
wheat at 75 cents and sugar 10 cents.
Several voices.—Tbat ain't quite square.
Mr. Knox, (Editor.)—And you only
pay me $2 a year for my newspaper,
which you thought cheap at $1,50, five
years ago, though I have now to pay three
times as much for every thing I use is
making a newspaper.
Mr. Greene.—Wby don't you raise your
prices, too ?
. Mr. Knox.—People won't stand it. I
must keep along with no profit, or even
at a loss, hoping for better times, or else
lose my subscribers, and let the paper go
down. Why, when I raised the price
from $1,50 to $2 a year, a good many
stopped the paper—among them Mr.
Brown himself, though I paid him double
for his wheat.
Mr. Brown.—l didn't stop it so much
for the price; I -went in for paying for
my farm by extra economy.
' Mr. ICtioz.:-Yes; he followed my ad
vice for people "to economize and pay
their debts now." But let us see if Mr.
Brown began at the right place. On one
Saturday I published in my paper that
wheat, had advanced 15 cents a bushel.
On Monday Mr. Brown went to market
with his wheat,and sold 60 bushelsat one
cent advance over the old price, and
thought he did well. Be came home
boasting about it, until he met neighbor
Johnson, who got the lb cents advance,
because he read my paper, and was wide
awake. Mr. Brown's loss on 60 bushels
would pay four whole year's subscription.
Mr. Brown.—Don't say anything more
about that, Mr. Knox, and put me down
a subscriber for life.
Mr. Knox.--I have heard of several oth
er such losses by those who stopped my
paper. Not to be too personal, as some
ofthem are here, I will al them A. B.
C., etc. Mr. A. paid 4 per cent more fees
on $7l taxes, because he did not. see the
collector's notice in my paper, and thus
lost $2,84, to save $2. Mr. B, paid $3,60
the same way. Mr. C. failed to bring in
his claim against an estate because be did
not see in.my paper the legal notice limit
ing the time. That, cost him $34, to save
$2 subscription. Mr. D. sold 200 pounds
of wool at 62 cents, becalm he did not.
see an advertisement of Mr. Smith, right
here at home, offering. 70 cents. That
cost, him $lB, to save $2. Mr. F's boys

MONTROSE, PA., TUESDAY, JAN. 30, 1866.
And then think of a household sitting
dOwn together 365 days in a year, and
having nothing to talk about, except their
own affairs, and a few items of gossip,
gathered up by occasional contact with
other people.
Mr. Taylor.—Let me help editor Knox's
argument. Wife read to me an item he
published about a humbug, which he cop
ied from the American Agriculturist, of
New York City. Next day one of those
same humbugs came round with hie arti
cle, and was so plausible that he almost
persuaded her into paying him 63, for his
swindling recipe; but the editor's caution
kept her back.
Mr. Knox.—Yes, and do you know that
the fellow sold more than fifty of the hum
bug recipes hereabout, at $3 a piece P bat
not to any one of my subscribers.
Mr. Potts.—Pat me down as a subscri
ber, Mr. Knox, here is your two dollars
Mr. Shaw.—And me too.
Mr. Knott.—Thank you, gentlemen.
I'll try to make a better paper than ever.
Every dollar helps; a new subscriber on
ly adds to my expense the cost of paper.
If everybody took the paper, and thus di
vided the cost of getting news, setting
type, office rent, etc., I could double the
value of the paper to each. Please talk
the matter over with other neighbors and
see, if it cannot be done.
Seven! Voices.—We will.
Mr. Smith.—And now while you are
about it, I want to 'make up a club for a
good New York paper.
Mr. Brown.—We can't afford to take
so many papers.
Mr. Smith.—Yon have just seen that
you could not afford to stop your home
paper; let us see if it will not pay to join
our club. Mr. Rich, you have taken the
Am-tit-an Agriculturist for several years.
Does it pay !
Mr. Rich.—Pay ? Yes, fifty times over.
Why, I got two ten acre fields ready to
ROW to wheat, and put in one of them.
I That night my Agriculturist came, and I
read a simple recommendation about pre
paring seed wheat. I called John and
we put 15 bushels in soak for the next
day. It cost 50 cents for the materials.
Well, that second field yielded 5• bushels
an acre more than the otber—or 50 bush
els extra, and better wheat too. Pretty
good pay for 81,50 expended for a paper.
And 1 have got lots of other hints almost
.as profitable. You know I -get better
profits on my beet; pork, and mutton than
any other man in the place. Now does
this not come from any direct hint, like
the wheat, but from a good many sug
gestions that I have picked up in reading
the Agriculturist, and from the course of
reasoning that I have been led into, by
reading in it what others do, and think,
and say.
Mr. Smith.—Yon are another, subscri
ber to the Agriculturist, Mr. West; does it
pay ?
Mr. West.—Pay ? Yes. You know
what good cabbages and potatoes I had
last season. Why, the cabbages were
worth double any others in town, for mar
ket or for home use. I had 400 heads
worth 5 cents a piece, extra ; and they
only cost 20 cents extra for seed. My
250 bushels of potatoes.are all engaged
for seed at 81,50 a bushel, when other
kinds bring only 50 cents. That's $250
clear gain, for the 814 extra I paid for
seed, awl the 11,50 I paid for the Agricul
turist. It was through this paper that I
learned about both the cabbages and po
tatoes. Its editors are careful, intelligent
men, on the constant lookout, for anything
new that is really good, while the paper
abounds in cautious against the poor
and unprofitable.
Mr. Smith.—What say you, Mr. Tay
lor ? Does it pay to invest, 1.1,50 in the
Agriculturist
Mr. Taylor.—Most certainly. A hint
in the paper led me to look after certain
insects at the proper time, and the result
wa', I had lOU barrels of splendid apples,
which brought me a clean $5 per barrel,
and this you know was better by $l, than
the average prices here , or $l6O. Then
I have rea d so much about good and bad
Grapes, the method of treating them, etc.,
that I can beat the town in raising grapes
profitably. My son, William, got a kink
in his head about Tomatoes, from some
thing the Editors said, and sent for some
seed. He made more moneron the crop
raised in his spare hours, than was clear
ed by half the farmers in this town.
Mr. Smith.—Let's hear from Mr, Crane.
Mr. Crane.-1 only read in the paper
what was said about. hogs—what kind
paid best, bow to feed them,
and the like;
but if you will call around and' see my
porkers, and my expense account, I'll bet
a pippin I can show fifty dollars more of
pork for the same money, than any other
man here. And this comes from reading
what other men think and do. But wife
ought to be - here to srmak.. She and the
girls read the Agrindiurial next , to the
Bible. • They think the honsebold•depart•
meat is worth more than all the fashion
magazines in the world. They, tiny, Ma
so full of good hints about al kinds of
house work. Ali I can say is, that, we do
have better bread and cake, and wife
says, the-cake don't cost. so much alit=
need to. She has learned from theirmer:
how a hundred Other house •.k.eeper,s , do
their work.
C )rey.—Let me ray, also, that
Mrs. Crane and tier daughters havc added
* good many beautiful but cheap home
made fixtures' to their parlor and Bitting
rooms, which certainly make their home
more attractive. They told me, the oth
elday, they got these up from pictures
in the Agriculturist.
-Mr. Travis.—My salary has not allow
ed-me to take the paper; though I must
squeeze out enough to do so this year.
My school boys have brought me some
copies to took at, the past year or two,
and I find the Boy's and Girl's department
of the Agriculturist the beat thing I ever
saw. It is full, of items, etc., that amuse
and at the same time instruct the chil
dren. Why, I could pick out the boys
and girls in my schootwhose parents take
the :Agriculturist just by hearing them
talk—they are so full of new and good
things they have learned from the paper.
The paper has many beautiful engravings.
Rev. Corey.—As small as is my salary,
I would have the paper if it cost $5 a year
instead of $1,50. The fact is, it helps out
my salary. My little garden plot at the
parsonage has yielded us almost all our
table vegetables, besides many beautiful
flowers. The Agriculturist has been my
constant guide. I knew but little of gar
dening; but this paper is so full of infor
mation about the best things to plant and
sow, when to plant, and how to cultivate
—all told in so plain and practical a way,
by men who seem to talk from their own
experience, that I know just what to do,
and bow to do it well. The high moral
tone of the paper, its common sense, the
care it takes of all parts of the Farm, the
1 Garden, the Orchard—the Household
work, and the Children as well, with its
hundreds of beautiful and instructive en
gravings—make it the most valuable pe
riodical I have ever seen. I heartily wish
every one of my parishioners would take
it for himself and family. It would awa
ken thought and enterprise; give interest
to the town and neighborhood talk, stim
ulate improvement, introduce new and
profitable crops, animals and implements,
and add to our wealth. Take my advice
and all of you try the paper a year. The
$1,50 itcosts, is only three cents a week,
and it is worth that any way. Why the
large and beoutiful engravings are worth
many times that.
Mr. Davis.—! took the Genesee Farmer
last year, and as that has stopped, I tho't
I would take a new paper.
Mr. Smith.—The " Genesee Farmer"
was not really stopped. The Publishers
of the Agriculturist invited Mr. Harris to
join the Farmer to the Agriculturist, and
put his whole force into the latter paper.
They paid him a huge price for his office
and moved it with everything connected
with it, to their office. So the Agrieultu
riSt is really two papers joined into one,
and of course better. 1 think we better
go eith Mr. Harris to the Agriculturist,
thatihas been published for 25 years, and
has !hundred thousand circulation, which,
as Mr. Knox has told us, supplies the
meals and facilities for giving as a great
deal more for the same money. Mr. Har
ris *ries on his large farm, and in his
" Walks and Talks on the Farm," and
othte things he writes for the Agricultu
rist, he tells us a great deal about all
kind; of farm work.
Mr. Davis.—Put me down for the Ag
riculturist.
" Smith.—l am glad to do so. I
know you will like it. The January num
ber,lwhieh has just come to hand, is alone
worth the cost, of a year. See here, (show
ing it,) there are 40 pages, twice as large
as tie magazine pages, and there are thir
ty five engravings in it, two of them full
pap! size, and see how beautiful ! Why,
I'll give any man who takes the papers a
yeall a dollar and a half in goods out of
my tore, if he says at the end of a year
be his not got many times his money's
worth.
Ml. Elution—Put me in your club.
Mr. Greene.—And me .too.—Mr. B.—
And me.
Mr. Smith.-4 have no interest in the
matter, except to do a good thing for the
place. You can join our club, or nny one
who desires can get the .Agriculturist for
all of 1866 (Volume 25,) by simply enclo
fsing 81,50, with his name and post office
ddress, and sending it to Orange Judd

FOE THE ritiffiCEAT.
• ,
Row Reniitgaril - Beeolierwonldlitinish
the Rebels were he in Pres
ident Johnson's place.
, A
It has been „told how , the, popular
preacher ofPlytnouth. church , was, so de
lighted with the prosPect of parting.com
pany with the people of She South, that
he proposed to hold a day $' thanksgiv
ing to Almighty God whenever the final
separation should take place. We have
heard him telling the people.of New Eng
land that, he did not care if all the gulf
States left the Union, and that it would
be for the advantage Of the North to bare
the South go off. We have heard Mu,
declare that, there would not be a. tear
shed at her departure, and he would not
have any of the gulf States think that the
North was unwilling to part company
with them.
These declarations all show that. he did
not believe it a moral wrong for those
States to secede from the Union ; thatbe
did not believe secession to be a crime, or
the Southern people to be traitors or re
bels in thus leaving the North, and "go
ing off into a nation by themselves." If
be did believe it wicked for them so to
do, he was a monstrous hypocrite in not
telling them beforehand of the wrong
they were about to commit, and warning
them of the consequences of their crime.
If in his estimation secession was crime,
why did be not tell them so ? If seces
sion was rebellion, and rebellion against
the government an enormous sin against
God, why did he not, as a faithful minis
ter of the gospel, admonish them of that
sin ? If they were committing no crime,
they deserved no punishment,. If they
had a legal and moral right to secede, as
Gerrit Smith told them they had, they
bad a right to fight for the maintenance
of their government. If they had as
much right to set up an independent na
tion as our forefathers had, according to
the declaration of Mr. Greeley, the Uni
ted States government had no more right
to subjugate them to its authority than
Great Britain bad to subdue our patriot
sires.
But Gerrit Smith, after asserting their
right to secede even in the NatiOpal halls
—followed them with "curses and guns."
Horace Greeley, after proclaiming their
natural and inalienable right. to atter or
abolish their government at their will,
went in for conquest and subjugation,and
the famous divine of Brooklyn turned de
ceiver and hypocrite also. After propos
ing to hold a day of thanksgiving if the
Southern people would only secede from
the Union, be calls fur punishinent upon
them for doing the very thing that was
to bring him so much joy. ,
If secession was wicked, 'did he not
sanction that wickedness P And if it was
not a crime, would a minister of the gos
pel desire to punish it as such ? If seces
sion and rebellion are crimes, he publicly
sanctioned thoie crimes, and then called
for punishment on the criminals. He says.
to a large audience of his abolition broth
ers:
" It is my hope and prayer that among
the first things that President Johnson
will do, will be to take his iron pen and
strike out with utter annihilation, so much
of President Lincoln's amnesty proclama
tion as contemplates restoration of prop
erty to those that take the oath of allegi
ance. (Great applause.) I hold that the
educated, original ruling classes, in rebell
ion should be made to smart and tingle to
the uttermost with condign punishment,
whose elements should be first, trial and
condemnation, if need be, with remission,
of sentence of death; second, disfran
chisement; third, confiscation. (Re.
newed applause.) No man that with his
eyes open went into the rebellion, should
go unpunished ; and ill was President of
these United States, no such man should
ever again have the power to shape a law
or elect a Magistrate, or should stand oth
erwise than as a branded and disgraced
traitor. Pardoned he might be, and suf
fered to live—but, be should i #17,4 as Cain
lived."
No one can fathom the depth of malice
and revenge exhibited in the above sen
tences, without contemplating the'results
of such punishments as is here called for
when inflicted upon the peopule of other
nations. Horace Greeley, in his revenge.
ful spirit toward the people, who only did
what he told them they had a legal right
to do, declared that when he, bad con
qitered and subjugated them, "they
should not return to peaceful and conten
ted homes, but must find poverty at their
firesides, and see privation in the anxious
eyes of mothers, and the rags of children."
This minister , of the meek' nd forg,iving
Saviour would have,nd, firesides fur 'the
children of the Southern' people te'tieet

'The abolitionists reverse this sentiment'
and say in word and deed, 46 We have
malice toward all, and charity toward
none." Henry Ward, Beecher says,
het were in President Johnson's
place he would rule over the Sotith like
an. Eastern despot. He is of the me=
principles of Thad, Stevens, who sayMti
fiscate 394,000,000 of acres, the estates of
rebels, and give . those lands to the ne
groes. This must be done, even though
it drives the nobty into exile. If they
go all the better."Thas were the nobility
who escape& .the guillotine exiled by
Robespierre and the revolutionists of
France.

over the North. The abolitiOnists have
no more love of civil liberty than Crom

England known so iron a rule f' or than
Robespierre, whose reign filled the world
with terror and dismay. They would
change the American Republic into an
Austrian despotism.
Beecher says if be were President no
prominent rebel should ever stand other

traitor. Pardoned he might be, and sot
