Great wrongs have been perpetrated upon the people, particularly agaipst the farming classes which they must seek to' rectify in their own intelligence. When the farmer is prosperous all classes will be prosperous. The injustice done to agriculture must be wiped o«t. There should be no cessation in the work of reform until this is done. Let the farmers beware of leaders who have once betrayed them. Let them work for their own enlightened self-inter-est. A commercial traveler who has been doing Petersburg was here to-day. White there he acqui red some statistical information. “Petersburg,” he says, “has about 2,000 inhabitants. Among them are 78 widows. 18 old maids and IS widowers. 1 called at a%oaen business houses and found that the proprietors “had lost stepped out, would be In In a minute.” 2 waited; they didn’t come.
