SPKXARTH. Astoria, August 2Cth, 1885. TUTTS Mraii THE PEANUT TRADE. Hotr Peanuts aro liaised and tribated In tbo Country Dls "Within the last two years the rais ing and handling of the "guber," as the peanut is called in the south, has become an important industry. Yet tho producing sections are confined to eastern Virginia and western Ten nessee along the Cumberland river. ThelaTgest markets for peanuts in the world are Norfolk and Cincinnati. About two month:: ago the most ex tensive peanut commission house in Cincinnati removed to St. Louis, and will ltry to make that city an outlet for the Tenues-see stock. Last year the tolal vield was comparatively light, being" about 1 ,000,000 bushels, while this season the crop is over 3,390,000 bushels. Last year they sold at seven and one-half cents a pound, while this year lliey can bo h.id at three ami a half cents. Tlie peanut grows very much like a sweet potato, and the vine resem bles the red clover. Wherever a new hut starts out a tendril i3 formed which extends into the ground. Tho avcage j'ield is from thirty to seventy bushels to the acre, and there are about 100 pcanu's on a vine. Tho article is a good one for speculation, and iii')iiy can be m.nle by judicious investment, because peanuts do not deteriorate with age and keep their taste for vjrs. The expense of rais ing them' is twice that of corn. Tho reason of this is that the fruit must be picked by hand, which is slow and laborious. "The average annual con sumption is over 2,000,000 bushels. Of course the consumption depends upon the price to a great extent. Tho experiment of cultivating pea nuts in California was recently at tempted with signal success, and tho "Golden State" will probai'y be come a rival of Virginia as a peanut producing locality. A few are raised in North Carolina, Missouri and Ar kansas, but the two stales referred to grow nine-tenths of all the peanuts used in the world. A good deal of skill is required in handling gubers. They are shipped in the rough, and the process o cleaning and grading is done by the wholesale purchaser. The peanuts are emptied from sacks into a large bin and are run through a fan which separates the chag. Passing down through another fan, the light nuts are thrown aside and the meaty ones run along a groove, when the black and inferior stock is picked up by girls, and when the nuts reach the packing room there are two grades. During the various processes through which they are sent the nuts become clean and polished. Of course they must be roasted before people will eat them. Working in tbo Dark. "Ma and I," she said shyly, "are more like sisters than mother and daughter." "Yes!" he said, with a lingering inflection on the afterguard of tho yes, which rose clear to the ceiling. "Yes, indeed," said the -girl, tho rosy flush on her cheeks making her infinitely more beautiful than ever. "Ma and I are inseparable. "We have never been separated a single day since I was a little baby." "N-no?" he said, this timo with an inflection on the second section of on that went only half way to the ceil ing and back again. "Oh, dear no," tho girl went on in her artless way, "and ma and I al ways said, that when I was married, she was. going to love my husband like her own son and come and keep house for us." "Oh-h? "William said, with a circumflex. Then he rose up slowly and firmly and said that ho had a note in bank to take up at three o'clock, and as it was now half-past nine he would go. And he did go. And he didn't come back again. Not never. And ma said to the girl : "That's where you missed it in not fully trusting your mother. "Why didn't you tell me that man had been married before? Had I known he was a widower, I would have played the 'Home for old women' racket on him." A great deal depends on the man who carries the plate. He needs Jo have a sharp eye, of course not to miss anybody, because there is not one chance in a thousand of his be ing called back. "What he needs more than anything else, though, is business tact. There's everything in knowing how to pas3 a plate io dif ferent people. Some of them are cranky. If you put the plate at them too persistently they feel offended, and take prido in not contributing a cent for six weeks. Then other peo ple have their little weaknesses, and want their light to have a good chance to shine. I knew a man who, if a plate came to him empty, would put on a quarter or a half, and be satisfied with starting it that way; but if there were a lot of quarters and things on aleady, he'd just as like as not slap down a dollar bill. And he'd get at least a dollar's worth of satisfaction in watching the hesi tation of the men next to him, who knew they were as good as he, and yetdidn't like to give so much. Why I've had a plate come sailing by me just loaded with bills, and you'd think the congregation wa3 extrava gantly liberal, when the fact was that two or three men started in that way, and tho rest wouldn't take a bluff. Lord Stewart. A. T. Stewart awoke one bright spring morning. After a short prayer he rose and dressed himself with more than his usual dispatch. Ho then drew up the curtain of his win dow and looked out at the hiue mar ble palace which had just Ikvh fin ished atTthe corner of Thirty-fourth street and Fifth avenue. As he stood looking at the gorgeous dwelling which he intended to make his home the next day, three ideas impressed his mind with increasing intensity. He ttibnjjjht of the marble contract or whom his own close figuring had driven to suicide. Pshaw 1 it was but the fortune of war. 1 le dismissed the thought with a shrug of his shoulders. The second mental picture was more persistent. It had long been his august custom, on entering his store on a rainv day, to lean against the nearest pillar, and lift his foot in silence. This was the signal for a fierce competition between his part ners and employes for the privilege of taking oil" his lordship's rubbers. The day before it had so happened that a western newcomer had been first on the spot. Instead, however, of defQy removing the dripping rub ber, the novice had jerked his master's heel higher than his head and seated him on a more secure but less digni fied foundation than a single foot. The deep frown upon Stewart's brow aug ured ill for the uncouth barbarian should he ever fall into his former employer's power. But this thought was driven away by a third far more annoying. The best of the girls who ran his heavier sewing machines had been offered $2 a week higher wages by another firm. "The ingrate !'.' he muttered. "To try and blackmail me out of two dol lars a week. She must go. The house is bleeding at every pore." But the sight of his marble palace glittering in the morning sunlight drew even this thorn from his mem ory, and he gave free scope to his joyous anticipations. His keen mind knew the effect of marble and money on men's imaginations, and he al ready saw his palace the Mecca of the aristocrats of the whole country. In a happy reverie he went down stairs, breakfasted and drove to church. His day-dream was rudely broken by his clergyman's text. "But God said unto him, 'Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be re quired of thee; then who3e shall those things be which thou hast pro vided?' " The great merchant fixed his eyes upon the preacher, who was an orator of no nean ability. The man of God painted the state of the rich manwho fared delicately every day and whose only care at length "grew to bo tho question what to do with his over flowing wealth. "And he said, 'This will I do; I will pull down my barns and build greater. And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years ; take thine case, eat, unnk and be merry.' "But God said unto him: 'Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be re quired of thee.' " " Stewart trembled; he was seized with a superstitious presentiment that the day he went to live in his palace would be his last day on earth. He forgave the sewing" machine girl; and in that same hour began to think out thoso great schemes of philan thropy, that after his death were frustrated by his executors. This was the real reason why Stewart's palace remained so long vacant. How Carrara 3IarbIo is Quarried. There arc 0,000 men at work in the quarries at Carrara, sixty-five saw mills and twenty-five polishing wheels, which brighten dull marble and smooth the slight .fortunes of some 400 plodding .workers. Tbe hewing of rough rocks, huge in their proportions, is something approach ing the marvelous here. The men are hoisted to the height of some 700 feet above the level of the quarry, and up aloft excavate perfectly colos sal lumps of Carrara marble. Each gang, or the foreman of tho gang, goes down with and on the lump as it is swung by derrick ropes out into the air and swiftly brought to mother earth. One of these Italians will sing in?usly tones, "Viva, Viva Gari baldi," from his dizzy eminence and suddenly appear below wnere you are standing, his bright, big black eyes full of unequalled expressive ness and his white teeth glittering between unapproachable smiles the inalienable gifts of these people and say, "Ah, signore, will you go up with me again?" just as if it were a perfectly ordinary feat. The free, easy and primitive style of this Car rara living trapeze work makes it ap pear doubly dangerous. Hundreds of accidents occur every year. Chil dren scarcely out of their swaddling clothes work amidst the glare and dust of this lovely white marble and die with sore eyes and stifled lungs. The food is dry bread, a raw onion and dirty water. It is the only place in Italy where wine is not drunk. Worn out by incessant severe toil, these people, insufficiently fed, fall into dissipation, violence and crime, dying like dogs and leaving on the white marble the sweat of their wretched lives.
