A writer in tlio New York Sun gives '. a niiiitito ntiWntcrcstini; account of nn Eatuni sclkl for loanini; money upon farm mortgages in tho West, which Western fanners will do well to keep clear of. Tho companies loaning th money nro located at tho Kast and the work is dono through ngemU mid mib ngents, each of whom receive a commis sion for his services, and all theso com missions puid by tho unfortunate bot rower. The writer in tho Hun says : 'A urcat shoot of paper p irtly iillod with printed (iticstions, is brought out, and tho owner of Western land tormally applies for tho loin. Tho applicant is asKu i ninny questions conceruinir ins age. his wife's iige, tho number of his children, tho amount of lio stock ho owns, bis health, and what ho intends to do with tho mutiny if ho succeeds in getting it; his moral diameter is dwelt upon, nml tho blank sp ico-i on the great sheet of piper arc filled with tho writ ten nnswers to tlio printed questions. Tho only item of interest to the Eastern inves'or, that of tho actual worth of tho land, is slighted. "I'ho firmer ntul his wifo sign a huge trimt deed and a lot of gilt edged coupon mortgage notes. Theso are sent oft' to the ha id center. Tlio loan and trust coiiipiny keep 10 percent, of tho 81,000 to repay them for their trouble, Hemline!

At tno pres ent time it cm bo had at from Ji to 10 per cont commission, and in rtgngcH can bo lenewcd or extended without any commission being piid. Tho money that was lent before 187!) sns generally slaved about 15 per o-nt, tho moit gigor receiwin 85 jicr cent, of tho face of his mortgigo nml paying 10 per emu iiiteni't on the par value. If tho mort gigo has fivo years to run, tho interest t hi iiioi tgugor pays is not 10 per cent. b it a Irillo over 15 per eeui." Of course when a farmer is haul pies awl for money he is easily entrapped in to paying these exorbitant commissionx; hn is ii-1 bis own master, auJ is at the mercy of the money lender- Hut it is to bo hoped tint in Missouri, nt least, there nro few farmer who am in this litrd condition.
