O ur A gricultural R ecord .— The Commissioner of Agriculture de clares that but a fifth part of the Unit ed States is divided into farms, and that only one quarter of this area Is tilled. The trouble about our farmers is that they have too much land, whereas the average return per acre could easily be doubled. Our agricul tural labor-saving machines have ren dered the planting and gathering of crops incalculably easier than it was a generation ago. It is after all upon the rural industry that our prosperity chiefly depends, and its progress marks our advance in national wealth. In 1850 the numlter of improved acres in the United States was 115,000,000 ; in I860, 163,000,000 ; in 1870,188,000,- 000. The cash value of our farms was $2,271,000,000 in 1850. In 1860 it had risen to $6,645,000,000, and in 1870 to $9,262,000,000. It had in creased nearly three-fold in twenty years. The value of farming imple ment in 1850 was $150,000,000, and in 1870 it had increased to $336,000,000. During the same time the valuation of live stock had advanced from $544,- 000,000 to $1,525,000,000. The same ratio has ruled since 1870. This is far better than any military records of victories and their consequent fame, and, indeed, it shows to better advan tage than our commerce and finances. With such a foundation of wealth be. neath the superstructure there need be no fear as to the future financial for tunes of the United States.—.V. F. Commercial A dvertiser. The introduction of the postal sys. tern, as it at present exists in all coun tries on the globe, has been credited to England, when, in 1840, covers and envelopes were devised to carry let ters all over the kingdom at one penny the single rate. The plan was adopted through the exertions of Sir Rowland Hill, who has been aptly termed the “father of postage stamps.” It now appears, however, that there is another aspirant for the introduction of the stamp system. In Italy, as far hack as 1818, letter sheets were prepared, duly stamped in the left lower corner, while letters were delivered by special appointed carriers, on prepayment of the money which the stamp repre sented. The early stamp represented a courier on horseback, and was of three values. It was discontirued in 1836. Whether Italy or Great Britain first introduced postage stamps, other countries afterwards began to avail themselves of this method for the prepayment of letters, although they did not move very promptly in the matter. Great Britain enjoyed the monopoly of stamps for three years and, though the first stamps were issued in 1840, she has made fewer changes in her stamps than any other country, and has suffered no change at all in the All kinds ot produce and hides taken in and is a sure euro for screw-worm, scaband original design—the portrait of Queen J ACKSONVILI.E PRECINCT. exchange for goods. 42tf. foot mt.
