There is no trait of human action that so well indicates nobleness of character, and assists over the hard places in human life, like true jioliteness. It is that element in the relationship of human beings that assimulates the nearest to godliness, ami ex emplifies the golden rule of Christianity which occupies so much of precept and so little of practice. Tin New York Ledger says that civility is a very desir able trait of character, and sensi ble people should make a point of keeping it on hand , civility is one of the Christian graces ; it is obli gatory upon a lady or a gentleman and it is excellent stock in trade for those who wish to get on in the world. We mean civility, not servility. To cringe and fawn and flatter is despicable. Osten tatious politeness, with a profusion of bows and tine speeches, may lie burdensome; but a kind word of greeting, a polite attention, a little act of courtesy is quite another thing. There are people who, have a great deal of that pride which gives one the assur ance of being "just as good as any body else, if not a little better, ' fancy that to care nothing for what others feel, to take the bsst and be the foreinoit by dint of pushing, and never on any ac count to allow another preced ence, is to assert themselves properly. This is a great mistake ; such conduct, instead ot being an evidence of true independence of character, is a mark of ignorance and vulgarity. In England, and in some parts of Continental Kurope, vulgar leople are rude to those beneath them and servile to those above them. In this free country, where there is no titular rank, the ignorant and ill-mannered are sometimes rude to richer or more fashionable people, in order to show their independence. This is less ignoble than the European fashion, but it is more detrimental to those who are guilty of it. In business, it is very poor policy in deed. Many American tradesmen and mechanics, many milliners and dressmakers, have failed be cause of the rudeness which they suppose would maintain their dignity, and which customers, who themselves would never be uncivil, were unable to endure i'olite attention to a customer's wishes, the little "thank you" on receipt of an order, marked court esy to every one in short, the constant observance of the tiulden Kule, has made the fortune of many a many and many a woman. One millionaire in the dry-goods business ascribes his prosK.'riy in a large degree to the fact that he never permitted an impertin ently "independent" clerk to remain behind his counter. It is an old adage that "manners make the man." They certainly have a good deal to do with the making of a successful man. THE ViJOD aUl'l'LY. That the base of all prosperity in the country is the agricultural pursuits is acknowledged by all political economists. Reeve, in Belford'a Monthly says that one year of non-production would empty our warehouses and silence our mills ; two years of non-production, and the accumulated wealth of the nation would be ex hausted in the purchase of food. The scarce possibility of such a condition is no cause for the state ment, but to emphasize the fact of our dependence up-n a continu ously successful agriculture. Ac cording to the statistician at Washington, exclusive of cotton and tobacco, the proportion of agricultural products exported is about 5 per cent and in compari- son with the imports the balance of agricultural trade in our favor is $50,000,000. la the light tf these figures, sys Mr. lieeve, the proud boast ttiat "we feel the worrd" can hardly be sustasned. Our average amount of food per capita is not dreamed of in other countries. We are prodigal in comparison, and have become so accustomed to the enormous figures that stand for the volume of our food production, we have never questioned the possible dis continuance of such a happy state of affairs. Yet, by consideration of the decrease in production, in crease in Herniation and of the number of producing acres yearly withdrawn the total for four years aggregating 72,108,7(15 acres we are compelled to at least take warning of the possibil ity of what may happen. Wheat is the one great item. Since 180 there has been no permanent in crease of the wheat area, and in no" year since has the average equaled that of 1SS0. Another fact to be noted is decrease in the average yk'ld, and this decrease in yield per acre pervades the whole realm of agri mlture, as figures from otlicial tables show. The declines are not great, but it is something to think about that they exist at all. These condi tions indicate necessity for a change in our land policy and methods of agriculture, the writer believes, unless we are willing eventually to take rank with the j over-crowded nations of Kurope. i Over crowded not in the sense of insufficient room, but failure of food supply. Increasing area and supply, with increasing popula tion means one day "a condition and not a theory " to be met, ex cept we take warning in ample time and seek the ramedies. The questions to be answered are: Are we devoting ourselves too en tirely to trade, commerce and manufactures and permitting to languish the inilustry that sus tains and nourishes all.
