Sir,—Henry Beer, Esq., and his friends, appear to think it very wrong’ in Mr. Fer- guson to solicit his (Mr. Beer's) supporters, for theie second vote. if Mr. Beer had any regard f-r consistency he wou'd never open his month about anything of the kind. At every election which he has run, he has not simply canvassed, but coated, his opponents to split with him. He has never said much about his colleague; his main object always being to get in himself. During the late election I met him in Mr. Owen Connolly’s Store, Charleitetown, and he aeked me tu split my vote with him. He said nothing to me about McDonald. Mr. Beer has used every man who has run elec- ‘ions with him simply asadupe. He has played that game-onice too often. It will not work again, 1 am,

Telezraphy Revolutionizsd.

A special despatch f ‘h from Canton, Ohio, says that Mr. 8. V. Essick, ot Alliance, in this county, has invented ‘and patented an instrument which bids fair to revolution- ize telegraphy. The invention consists of an automatic telegraphic transmitter, which in its appearance and operation re- sembles the modern type-writer. The Morse transmitter, now in general use, as is generally known, reqtires one ithpulse of the finger and hand on the single key of the instrument for each dot and dash of the ‘*Morse alphabet,” and eighty-two impulses are required for the represenja- tion or ‘‘ making” of the twenty-six letters of the alphabet. The new transmitter requires, like the type writer, but one impulse for each letter of the alphabet. The message may be “‘ taken” by sound or paper when tranamitted by the new instru- ment, although the operator can send so fast though not at Lhe maximum speed of the instrument, that the ear cannot dis- criminate between the sound, and taking by sound is impossible because «f rapidity of succession of the alphabetic sound. To remedy this, or rather prot by this speed in Weperp a he ahs: has been i av vented and patent sane gentie- man, message at the desti- nation and writes it out in type- writer style. The invention have been tested on the wires of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne, end Chicago Rulread, and it is expected from the suceess of the transmitter and receiver will do the work of three with the old style in present use, while the liability of error in transmission is very much lessened. —— oe

Value of Farme.

WONDERFUL INCREASE IN TWENTY YEARS,

The following summary shows the extra- ordinary growth in thé valnation of the farms-of ihe United States, in so brief a period as only twenty years :—-

1860 —* ensus total valuation. .,$3,271,575 426 1870 —Censue total valuation.. 9,262 893,861 1880 - Census total valuation. .10 197,161,9 5 It is to be noted, that 1870 was a time of great inflation in the estimated valuation of all land-d property, under a depreciated paper currency, and at an era of high speculation ; while in 1880, after a long period of great depressiun, real estate had hardly begun to feel the large improeve- ment in the money valtus of almost every- thing. Probably a fairer estimate of the gold valuation of the farms would be like this ;

1860 . - . $ 3.271 576.426 1870 - : . 6,000,000, 000 1880 - . - 10, 197,161,905 1882 - - - over 12,000,900,000

Indeed, if we allow for the very large breadth of wild land changed into farms during two yews post, and the rapid increase in value per acre in the leading agricnitural States like Ulinois, Lowa, ete., jthe present valuacion will hardly fall short jof Fifteen Billion Dollars, and the increase in round bitlions, in 22 years would per- haps range thus ; 1860, Three; in 1870, Siz to Seven ; in 1880, Ten; in 1882, Fourteen. —American Agricu/turist for June.

An English Bit of Criticism.

American poetry has a pathetic ring about it that nothing in modern English can equal. Even in their (in)temperate mo- ments our cousins across the At'antic excel. A short time ago a gentleman weil known in New York circles had to leave home and sail the stormy seas to Europe. His friends gave him a supper and a fare- well address. - The followin, is the first verse: — | The Gallia sails, "tis well ! The cheers loud swell, yet dwell Upon the faces of the sad ones left, A palor as if hell | With all its terrors, fell, i

Must us compel To drop the parting tear to one voyager Who loved us well. It is not surprising, under the cireumstane- es, that the guests of the farewell) supper

‘shed tears,” or that they shock each other by the hand. The * pallor as if hell” fell upon ‘hem with a thud, and they went home in groups, eilling at each lamp- post on the way.— London Paper,

A Way wits Sremps—A Dakota cor- rsporident writes :—In the antumn bore a two-inch hele, four or five inches deep, in

the centre of the top of the stump, put in from on and @ half to two onnees of salt-

petre (nitrate of yota-h), Gl the) holes

with water. and plug tightly, In the en- suing spring remove the plug and. pour in from ove and a half te two ville ofkerosens oil, and ignite. The stump will emonider away without blazing, to the very extrem’ ty of ther ots, leaving nothing but ashes. ‘i his
