Adding to this the value of all other farm products, livestock, etc., and the total would be above $10,000,000,000. This is more than any one year's crop was ever before worth, and while this is in a great measure due to war prices, at the same time o there was considerable loss on the same account, the cot- tnn loss nf fc'.OO.OOO.OOO offsetting the train on wheat.

' A pretense of indifference to riches is generally hypo critical; but it is certain that riches are not essential to happiness, soning fear, that makes everyone hang onto his coin and refuse to buy or do any business, Is responsible for the present dullness. They're burying the butehercd dead, wlioe blood has stained a million Hi res; no dirge is mini;, no prayer is (mid, there is no kindly under taker. They plant the soldier, where he died, forever lost to thosu who love hi in; unwashed, unshriv en, staring-in ed, he lies, tho red sod heaped above liiin. No clergyman beside him stands, no coro ner, with inquest hoiden, no friend to lold the tortured hands, or smooth the ringlets gf.'den.
