The Advantages of the Farm, . "Well, t have at last traded my place in the city for a small-farm twenty-two | miles out On the railroad." So Bpoke a man fifty-tWo ysars of age to the writer. He had lived in town all his lifo. He had always been sober and industrious, and while he had not acquir? ed mach property, yet h'e had by indus? try and frugality, managed to secure for ^Kfn^Sff^^^in^!^ a<K6me^ici the great ?cityv&A. |?ce lwj>rth, perhaps, four' or 'five tfiousauq- dollars. Sofft was ? home only in name; a place tu stay. A fairly commodious house, a small front yard with a little grass, a few flowers and a tree or two, and the bare back yard with the usual out-houses. The speaker was a man of average intelligence, strictly htoncst and upright. He bad never tilled any very important position, but had always held a subor? dinate clerkship or book-keeping job, with a fair salary attached. Just such a place a? thousands of other good, honest and faithful men occupy in the great cities. This man had brought up a family of children within the small space of ground', he called home, and had managed to fairly educate them. The children had dono only fairly well, however.' The boys, reared in town, had turned out "fast," and one^n, physical wreck at an; early age, had come back to his. falber for financial aid and support. One of the daughters had married unfortunately, and she, with two or three children, had alBO returned to the p.trental roof. - TheBe miaforaaes, with advanced years and failing strength, made the father feel that bis burden was getting too great for him to bear. He felt that he must find a cheaper place to live, and a place where all might work and by their labor help him to bear tbo bur dec. ? ? His place in town yielded him nothing bat his rental. It was worth to him what a similar place would have cost him in rent; simply that and nothing more. There was no soil to yield its harvest, no fruit to gather and no live, stock to increase and multiply as the months and jears rolled by. This was three years -ago. But only a few days ago the same gentleman met the writer and said: "I feel now that I am living, and my only regret-is that .[ did not 'go to the country twenty-five years ago instead of three. ."Peter (his Bon) has nearly regained bis health) and he does all he can to help me. At present he is in town peddling raspberries. We have a fine, large patch of this fruit. Most; of the vines were on the place when we traded for it.1" He went on for some time, speaking of the advantages of farm lite, naming his two mares and their colts and his pair of mules, of the fine yield of milk and butter from his grade cows. How every? body "and the cook''were kept busy on the farm. -He said he did not give up his posi? tion in town, but still held it, going back and forth on the train morning and evening, but that he thought he would quit town life.entirely in. a short-.time. Said he:? " */ j Vit was 'go to the country or go to the poor house/ and I'm mighty glad I went when I did." rr -Not one man iu twenty-five in the city does better than this man did, as regards salary, property, etc.,,and yet he realized, as;he grew older, that he must have sup? port other than his own . enfeebled strength, and he wisely turned to -the countryftofindit.: ??' f C -The writer was born on a farm, raised oh a farm and thanks God for it In later life he has been through the mill and seen the elephant, hut he now pays taxes on a farm, and the Lord willing, shall end his days on a farm. City life is a sham and a hollow mock? ery. There is some good in it, but the good 1b hidden so deeply, is so encrusted with vanity and pretense and false theo? ries and ideas, that the heart that is long? ing for the real, the good and the true, ?together with the brightness and fresh? ness of nature, must turn to the country to find it.?H. B. G., in Southern Culti? vator. A Fearful Record. We arejreally afraid to say how many homicides we have had in South Carolina during the past twelve months, but of one thing we are certain, and that is that it presents a most fearful record. Indeed the matter has assumed such proportions that our most intelligent men are consid? ering how it may be decreased, and whar. is the reason for the increase. Human life seems in the eyes of many to be no more than that of a brute, and man kills, his fellow-man, in many instances,' for very trivial causes, and, without even a reprimand, go out again into the world a free man, without any apparent repentance for * his rao3t awful deed. - We search.in Tain for the cause of the increasa according to the views of many. Men, prominent socially and politically, are shot down like dogs,' and in most eases the plea of self defense is all that is necessary to acquit. We ^dislike very much to believe that this thing will con? tinue, but unless the laws are more rigid? ly enforced, and the rope brought more frequently into use, we have little- prom? ise ( for the future. .We hope to see a public sentiment cultivated that will look down upon those who seem to have such an utter disregard for human life, and one that will be such a pressure upon our courts ai d juries that no guilty man will be allowed to escape.?

Row Webster Won His Place. Strain the Boston Herald. Washington, D. C., August 5.?The appointment of Eugene A. Webster to day to be collector of internal revenue for the South Carolina district was the Waterloo of the Independent Republican party of South Carolina, so called, and of its lea? ders and promoters in Massachusetts, L. Edwin Dudley and the members of the Massachusetts Club. He was the. candi? date of the regular Republicans of his State, and so far as the party can be said to be organized, had the party organisation behind him. The candidate of Mr. Dud? ley, and the Independents was first George G. Alexander, a Democratic State Sena* . tor from JCershaw County, an'd a sorehead. Wheh it was found that hecoulu not win, the Independents trotted out other candi? dates, and it seemed as if the dark horse would win. But Mr. Webster takes first mpney. It is the most important Federal position in South Carolina, and the Independent party may be paid to be done for. Weboter was really the only Harl'ison mau who came up prominently for the place. He was a delegate at the last Chicago Convention, and one of the few who didn't sell out to Gen. Alger. He voted six times for the Hoosier candi? date. The agent of Ibe Ma^nQhusetts Republicens took only a week in South Carolina to discover what a ground swell reform movement the Independent party represented. Tbe come-outers had never elected anybody to anything. They bad never even voted for anybody for anything, but Mr. Dudley was satisfied that they would if they had a little Federal pap for nourishment. ; . In 1882;sorehead Democrats in two or three of the counties, who enjoyed the confidence of neither whites nor blacks anywhere, proposed to put up a State ticket of their own; but when they couldn't get candidates to stand the pro? ject had to be abandoned. In 1884 the same elemaut claimed recognition on the Republican electoral ticket, and for some unknown reason were allowed to name half tho electors. Iu two or three of tbe Congressional districts it was proposed to run the candidates, but the divisions amounted to nothing. The Independents managed to live during tbe Cleveland Administration, but they kept very quiet about their Republicanism. Just before the last election W. W. Russell, who turned out afterwards to be a candidate for United States marshal, and three other Independents went North, talked somewhat in the campaign in Massachusetts, and had printed in Re? publican newspapers accounts of their organization, which didn't exist. Russell, indeed, maintains that he talked so effec? tively in the 9th Massachusetts district that Edward Burnett eent for him to try to find out -what his power was. Mem? bers of tho Massachusetts club, who had money and reform ideas to spare, were easily enlisted in the Independent cause. Some hundreds of dollars were sent down for tbe support of tbe Columbia Daily Record, the State organ of the party, and freat results were looked for. Mr. and Mrs. Indiey spent a few days in Charleston and a few days in Columbia. Congress? man Lodge introduced Mr. Dudley to the President, and Senator Hoar otherwise interested himself in the movement which he represented. Mr. Dudley went still farther north and made his report to his employers. It made a column and a half in the papers and almost made its author a-national character. It represented that South Carolina would be a Republican "'t?te in trio or three years if tbe Inde? pendents were only encouraged with a few offices. This time, it seems, the President was not fooled, Alexander, the Democratic -v t?te Senator, was made the candidate of the Independents for internal revenue collector by Mr. Dudley in place of another man. So far as known the can? didate did not appear on the field, but Russell did appear along with numerous other patriots, who, like himself, were to have deputy collectorships at $1,500 a year if the scheme worked. Russell claimed a following of four hundred In? dependents in his county?white men who; were sick and tired of voting the Democratic ticket in South. Carolina. Webster confronted him with an offer to withdraw if he would prove that he had forty followers. They made their head? quarters with Ex-Supreme Judge A. J. Willard, wholgave the State of South Carolina to Tilden in 1876, and is now a claim attorney in Washington. The Independents were able by the clamor of their representation almost to bother the life out of Headman Clarkson. That usual unerring executioner gave Russell some dozen or fifteen postoffices: in South Carolina, and gradually, as the truth came in from the localities most concerned, undid the work by removing the Independents and appointing better persons. Between the regulars and the Indepen- ' dents Chairman Brayton of the State Committee was in a heap of trouble. He was a Sherman man at Chicago, as is well known, and didn't sell out; but tbe supposition, is that he knew that his delegates wore selling out to Alger right and left. That is the reason wny John Sherman ' refused to even see Brayton when he called at his K street house soon after the inauguration. That was Bray ton's first setback. He went down and down. First, he wanted to be the head of some bureau, then he wanted to be the South Carolina district attorney, the United States marshal of that State, then a consul anywhere, and finally, when the Independents seemed to be making.it hopelessly warm for Mr. Web Bter, he took new hope and made a break for the Internal revenue collectorship, his old position under President Arthur. During the long fight three or four other candidates nobbed up. Webster's fight was very simple. He stopped here a few days on his way to Vermont, hi; old home, where he was taking his wife and children for a visit, and showed himself, with good letters of recommendation, as to bis character, to persons whom the President trusts. It was dwelt upon with assiduity that he he had voted for Harrison sis times at Chicago, and had helped to nominate him. There was really nothing to be ashamed of in Mr. Webster's record. He was from Orangeburg, and had been the Republican County Chairman, and not one of the selling out kind, for fifteen years. He bad lived in the Slate since 1865, and everything he had was there. He was the son of old Aionzo Webster, of Weston, Vt., and had graduated from Middlebury College. He went South with his father just after the war, when Bishop Baker sent him to Charleston to reorganize the Methodist Episcopal Church of that diocese. The old gentle? man was after that president of Clafiin University at Orangeburg, which was named through him, after Lee Clafiin, the father of Ex-Governor Clafiin, because it was expected that father and son would both subscribe liberally for its endowment. Mr. Webster is a quiet and unobtrustive man. ? A Nebraska church congregation, picked out a wife for their beloved pastor, "to Bave him that trouble." When he explained to them that he didn't regard such a task as any trouble at all, and tbat he had already been engaged in tbat pleasant duty for some time, certain mem? bers of his congregation became angry and demanded his resignation. Some clergymen are so very unreasonable and ungrateful! They don't appreciate the efforts of their congregations in their be? half. ? The colossal equestrian statue of General Robert ?? E.

Boston University has graduated 478 doctors of medicine and surgery, nearly one half A Startling Problem. Mr. S. L. Looinis predicted the result of the census of 1880 within 18,000 of the actual figures. He estimates that the population of the country in 1890 wil reach 67,250,000f an increase during past decade of more than SO per cent. To allow a reasonable margin for possi? ble error we may place the total at 67,000,000, and the decennial incfearti at 80 pet bent. Should this ratio of increase cOntinue, our population at the end of each decade during the next 100 years will be represented by the following figures, the progressive immensity of which will surprise most people and per? haps cause them to wonder: "WHAT THIS "WOULD IS COMING TO. 1900.Mi....;. 87,100,000 MO.113,230,000 1920.147,199,000 1930.191,358,700 1940. 248,765,300 1950.>;w;;w....?...320,393,29'0 1900.;;-.;;-.-.;.410,513,277 1970.541,467,250 1980.702,907,425 1990.015,079,642 People of a speculative thru of mind **ay Well auk themselves what is to be dose with so enormous a population, how are they to be supported, and many other questiona that, though purely speculative now, may assume a vital im* portance before the close of the neat century. The total area of the United States, including Alaska, is 3,580,248 Bquare miles, ot 2,291,354,880 acres. This area necessarily includes the lakes, rivers and uninhabitable mountains and deserts, yet we find that there will be an average of more than two aud one half persons to each acre of our total area when the enumerators enter upon their duties 003 hundred years hence. The exact figures are 2.504. According to Mr. Loomis, the ratio of increase of population by births over deaths, although much less than it was a century since, is at present 2 01 per cent, per annum, or 20.1 each ten year;. Ac? cepting, for convenience, the ratio of decennial increase as 20 per cent., and casting aside all accretion from immi? gration, we find that in the year 1990 our total population will be more than 610,000,000. Whether these figures' are accepted as reasonably trustworthy or rejected bb gross exaggeration, the fact still remains that the natural and inevitable increase of the population, not alone of our own country, but of the whole world, presents a problem that may well engsge the thoughtful mind.?
