A committee of three wereappointed to draft pacificatory resolutions. -Speeches were made, and for awhile there was quite a little lovefeast. Each individual speaker wanted it understood that ho loved the farmer as he loved his life, and that he acknowledged himself wholly dependant on him for all he had been, all he was, and all he everhoped to be. A member Of the council asserted »that it bad not been the intention to remove a single post that was an accommodation to his honored agricultural friends for hitching purposes. Some pestiferous wretch suggested that it might seem a hardahip for those who had taken pains to decorate their grounds and improve their property, to have a stable yard made in front of their doors, drawing flies an creating fifth and stench but he wi promptly hooted out of the hall—beheaded perhaps, for he hasn't been heard of since. All the rest agreed to at onoe put up a row of bitching posts in front of their own property and do all that lay in their power to induce the mistreated formers to come back and make use oi tbem. The upshot of It all was, that It was resolved to have all toll gates removed on roads leading into town, und to petition the council to lease ground and eatabliah a large free wagon yard for the accommodation of our esteemed Mends, the farmers of Montgomery county.

Tradesmen are like the avec^e men of other classes—no better, no worse neither in all classes superior to temptation and the eagerness t?jc profit, nor more prone to do dishonest things. As a class, their profits average very low. In the large cities, a few of them suoneed in centralising a large trade into their bands, and henoe aoquise hand some fortunee, but the very great majority make a bare living by the hardeat work. As regards granger stores, they are entirely legitimate, and, nodonbt, In some instances serve a good purpose, bat in them the consumer pays by salary, rather than by per centage, for the labor of dlatribatton.

WHKK the hot aultry days oi summer burst upon us there oomes akso the annual fear of epidemic diseases, particularly cholera, yellow foyer andamallpox. The history of post epidemics teachea one great practical lesson—that general aanTtary measures enforced throughout a city, and Individual attention to matters pertaining to health, are the chief conditions to safety. Thorough cleanliness, pure air, unpolluted water, and wholesome food—these are things essential in a large city to prevent any isolating scourge. Yet the dlsesso°most dreaded arie -not always the most deadly. In 1873 yellow fever wan tiw canse of 3,397 deaths In the United States, and a general panio was the reattlt, and in some parte of the country business Waa paralysed for a time ont the 9,200 deaths from various malarial fevers during the sam# period of that year did not create any geheral dftfturbance.
