Figures lor Farmers*
In I860 the fanners constituted about
one-half of the working population, and
owned about one-half of the wealth of the
whole country. The aggregate value of
all property, real and personal, in I860,
according to th*? census returns, was $14,-
lo2,73G,OCtt, ex< lusive Of slaves, of which
$7,9^,-403,003 was thu exclusive value of
farm property. *n lbCO out of 10,G68,630
male working population. 5.425.&03 were
farmers, rather more than half. According
to the census return* of 1870 the aggre
gate value of all the property in the
country was $.J0,D6$,518.507* of which
only $11,124,058,747 was farm property,
but little more than one-third of the
whole amount. If the farmers had held
their own from I860 to 1870, their part of
the whole property would have been
$n.459.000.0u0. instead of $11,124,958,747
as above stated, making a difference of
over $6,000,000,000—more than twice the
amount of the national debt. In I860
the farmers owned 58 per cent, of the
whole property in the country, but in
1870 they owned only 37 per cent, of it.
Political and Congressional gambling
under Radical domination in every branch
of the government has thrown the great
agricultural interests of the nation over
six thousand million dollar* in the back
ground in ten years. Reading current
histoiy by the light of these United
States census returns, con we wonder at
the general uprising called the “ Far
mers' Movement P* They are the suffer
ing subjects of a notoriously corrupt ad
ministration, associated with a salary-
stealing Congress equally criminal in its
public act*. The money power that
was seven billion in 1868, became by
ba*e legislation and indirect robbery
nearly nineteen billion in 1870, and is to
day more than throe times larg»*r than it
was thirteen years ago. In the same
time the furm.ng interest increased only
from $7,980.t<00,000 to $11,121,000,000.
The one gains 200 per cent, and the
other some 55 per cent, in the war de
cade. But since the census in 1870 agri
culture ha* Hidlv declined in profits and

A Wosderfhl New Geologist.
London Correa{>«»denre Cincinnati Couunerrial.]
A young geologist ha* appeared of such
wonderful knowledge in curtain difficult
region* of his science as to havo caused
grunt astonishment. This young man*s
name is Miall, and he is a nephew of the
famous nonconformist member of Parlia
ment. lie has for some time been the
curator of a sort of scientific museum in
Leeds, and I believe he has not hitherto
contributed anything to the association.
But it would seem that he has explored,
with singular completeness, all the man!-
fetation* upon this planet of a certain
animal knoan to paleontology os th**
“Labyrynthodon. It is this animal which
(os Cherropodion) is supposed to have
left its sign manual and po<lal in some of
the great strata—a supposition which
Mr. Miall ha* exploded. lie ha* searched
out this extinct monster, and searched
into aU its living relatives and
descendants, and by so doing solved so
many knotty joints that old geologists
like Sir J. Philips are in ecstasies. Miall
hod no notes. He spoke off all the histo
ries and date* and figures relating to the
“ Lubyrynth«Mlon ” a* if it had been his
prattle from oarly infancy. And when he
sat down Phillips, the President, arose
and said: "This scientific statement pla-
oos its author at one step in the foremost
ranks of geological investigators.** The
geologists instantly resolved to request
Mr. Miall to allow their society to publish
at its own expense—and illustrate by
suitable engravings—a monograph which
they allege will revolutionise their sci
ence at an important joint.
Tlic Fall of Dr„ >Iui»sey.
The Lexington (Vo.) Gazette describes
the misfortune of the gifted and brilliant
Rev. Dr. W. E. Munsey as follows s
"This country hns never produced a
rarer genius than Munsey. With aU his
wonderful gift** he was aa gentle an a
child. He overworked his feeble body
in serving the church in Baltimore ana
succumbed to a paralytic stroke that
deadened one side, and deranged his
mind. We saw him in that city over a
year ago at his home, struggling with
the laboring oar. We gave our opinion
to friends at that time he was suffering
from aberration. His physicians made
every effort, to get him awuy from the ex
citing lobes of the city pastorate. It
seemed to the noble fellow os deserting
his jxwt. and he refused to leave. An-
oth< r «cv«tre attack of palsy wrecked
mind and l-ody. He left the city far the
scenes of bis early life in the back coun
ties of Virginia, bordering on Tennessee.
His own people wen* poor ami obscure.
He was moneyless. It is a slmme to the
church, to society, to hunsanitv, that this
luan of marvellous power nnd noble life
should cn 1 his day* friendless and insane,
