Hay and Potatoes.
Amsiicaa Uuit.vator.]
Tim bay ami potato crops of tbo
United States for the year 1880 will
prove larger than ever before in tile
history of American agriculture,
while the quality of both is fully
equal to the best recorded in many
years. Both are national crops—
especially hay—the value of which
is now next to that of wheat.
The lmy crop ant junta to 35,000 -
000 tons.aud it has averaged sl3 50
per ton fora number of years past.
In Maine the bay crop lor 1880 is
ts imated ut 1,300,000 tons; New
Y-'fli's crop will exceed 5,000,000
tous, worth about $03,0-0,000, and
tt at of Pennsylvania, worth $35,.
OOfl.OuO; that of Illinois about $25-
000,00. The value of the liny crop
ot the U.uted States for 18S0 is es
timated at $325,000,000. The
wheat crop of ttie country, recoil and
at $1 per bushel, represents this
year about $475,000,000, It will
ho seen that the hay crop of this
country constitutes an important
factor in our national growth, so
far as agriculture is concerned.
To potato crop of the country,
will it is believed, roach 425,000,.
000 bushels this year, valued ay
$100,000,000. New York, ns usual,
leads in the cultivation of this escu
lent, producing not loss than 25,-
000,000 bushels.
Tli3 Laugh of a Child
The laugh of a child will make
the holi st dny most sacred, Strike
with hands of tire, oh weird musi
cian, thy herp strung with Apollo's
eoldon hair; fid the vast cathedral
ids es with symphonies swcot and
dim, deft teacher of the organ keys;
blow, bugler, blow, until thy silver
nctes do touch and kiss tho moon
lit waves and charm tho lovers
wandering ‘mid vine-clad hills.
But you know your sweetest strains
are discords ull, compared with
childhood's happy laugh—the laugh
that fills the eyes with 1 ght and
every heart with j iy. Oh, rippling
river of laughter! thou urt the bless
ed boundary line between beasts
and men and every wayward wavo
ol thine doth drown some fretful
fiend of care. Oh, Laughter, rose
lipped daughter of -Joy! there are
and tuple" enough in th> cheeks to
catch and hold and glorify all the
ot Oricf.
Tho following resolutions were
ndopte 1 by tho Methodist district
confer nice in Savannah:
Whereas, Tho highest function
of civil government is to protect the
lives and property of its citizens;
and 'vhereas,a government that dos
lives a revenue from licensing a
hiißincHH that is destructive to both
life and property is false to its most
saend obligations; and whereas,
the liquor traffic, now conducted
under cover or legal license, is the
direct ciuse of death lo thonsi’nds
mid of the destruction of millions of
dollars worth of property,therefore^
Resolved 1. That the state has
no mor i 1 right to issue lioeuses to
rum sillers.
Resolved, 2. That wo do most
lieariily indorse Ihe efforts now
making to rid tho statute books of
I lie state of (isorgia of all laws that
license thb sale of spirituous liqu
ors, and their substitution by mvs
that thall prohibit the maoufuctnre
and sale of intoxicating drinks as a
bever g.
Resolved, 3. Tli.it ws pledge our
t-etvos to do nil in oir power to
further the movement now in pro
gress to close the saloons by law,
and we tugs our people to tally to
this work, mid persever.. in it, until
not one barroom rem ains to tempi

A French ..liter says th it in the
United States the couleetiouery
shops for ladies aro us numerous
a. tlic liquor shops for men. Amari
can gills have a passion for sweet
staff. They only leave one bonbon
shop to go and sit dowu in anoth'

French women wiia the wor-t
gourmands of the old aud new
worlds. We have now to offer
them our most humble excuses.
There isno.v building in the Bald,

All the world begins to journey
I down to ‘‘the Island. *' Think of
I 35,000 as a beginning, in an after
: noon, taking an airing in a most
friendly, democratic and truly Yan
kee fashion. Seeing and being
seen, elbowing and being elbowed,
laughing and beiug laughed at, eat
ing, drinking, making crabs of
themselves iu holes in tho sand,
flirting, selling and being sold, and,
iu fact, doing everything tbat our
ingenuity ns an inventive people
can devise, and all good-naturedly.
A homogenous lot indeed, is to be

Fair. They pour iu by boat and

The most remarkable specimen
of cotton Commissioner Young
found in the exposition was a vari
ety known as the Bamicb, said to
boa cross between tho okra plant
and cotton. It is said to bo tho cus
tom in Egypt to plant okra in the
cotton fields. As the result uf this,
a few years ago a planter discov
ered ooiton bolls growing upon the
stalks of okra. 110 gathered this
and planted the seeds of the hybrid
variety, and the rostill was a cotton
short and coarse, but very prolific.
The commissioner was told that
this v nety produces at least one
third more to the aero than the or
dinary cotton of Egypt. The okra
stalks ia much taller ancl stonger
than the cotton stalk, and produces
more and shortor branches. Tho
staplo is short, coarse am) woolly,
and tho seed aro blaok and small.
It is probable that this variety
might be planted with profit in the
south; indeed, steps have been
taken to tost it, and if it should
prove a success, seed can be pros
cured from tho commissioner of ag
riculture.
Tlio Post-Appeal says: An un

ty.four. Whether she has children
or not, she collapses, gets poor in

find this is always the case with

Mgiers possesses a river of ver
itable ink. Two streams, ouo start
ing from a region where the soil is
ferruginous, tte other from a peat
swamp, meet and form tho river,
whose inky constituency is due to
the mixing of the iron and gallic
acid which the two tributary
streams respectively contain.
