The New Tear.
Onee agnin a now epoch is reached
form which to dato the progress of the
aXTairs of men, and it forms a suitable op
portunity for a review yf the events of, the
psAt and for the formation of plans for
tho future, f* t,:* ?? ; >'
It in Uot our intention to moralize at
this time, but it is proper for us to ac
knowledge our indebtedness to the Giver
of all Mercies for the blessings so richly
bestowed upon us in the years that arc
gone, and to ask their continuance for
the time to coma. We would n'.s? avail
of the pecasion presented to greet all our
readers with tbe compliments of the sea
son, wishing them A Happy New Year,
and expressing the hope that they may
be blessed with prosperity and health,
favored with fruitful fields, and remuner
ated amply for their la not s and patience.
To many the year just closed lias been
one, doubtless, of tribulation. Thousands
who believed they were beyond the reach
of such'ti contingency, surrounded by
every mark of security, found themselves,
by the sudden changes of the times, re
duced from the height of prosperity to
the depths of poverty. Tho causes of
there catastrophes are too well known to
need repeating here. Tho shock was
abrupt^ sharp and destructive. Let us
be thankful that to a great extent the
desolation has been stayed, and that a
rainbow of hope now shines over us. May
the lessons-taught in the hour of trial not
be without a compensating good in the
future.
Amidst even the direst of calamities
there is always a silver lining to the
cloud. No chastening for the present
seemeth good, but it is apt to bring forth
the permanent fruits of righteousness,
says an inspired writer, and so we hope it
will be with the recent troubles in our
land. At no period of tho year would
the late panic have been less likely to
cause a general disruption of tho busi
ness of the country than that at wh ch it
came, aud then the Farmers, as they
have ever been; were found the hope and
salvation of all other classes. They were
just gathering in their harvests of grain,
and securing the whitened crops of the
cotton field,?those products which were
eagerly sought with outstreched hands
by the nations of the world, who, failing
in their own harvests, found their depen
dence upon American farmers, and freely
shipped the r gold to our shores for the
genorous grain of which we had a sur
plus to spare. "American Farmer."
Profits from One Hen?A Sugges
tion?Afe old subscriber to the "Ameri
can Farmer," in Culdwell county, N. C.,
in renewing for 1874 and sending a club
of new names, says;
"My wifo had a blue hen the past sea
son that laid thirty-two eggs, and raised
besides, eight turkeys and twenty-five
chickens. They were ull sol i in our
little market, as follows {1
32 egg*, at 20 c*nta. a dozen 52
8 turkey*, at $1.80 a pair $7 20
28 chicken*, at 18 cents a piece 4.50
$12 22
Who can beat that? M. D. S."
That is a pretty good return from one
hen ! It gives us, too, little text on which
to hang a suggestion. It is that if those
farmers who think the times arc too hard
to take a paper will take one hen and
properly enre for her, she will easily net
them enough to pay for their county
paper and their religious paper.
Chester Pigs.?This breed of hogs
was formerly held in high repute, for the
genuine article is no doubt ono of the
best of the swinish fraternity; but of Into
yeais, the demand for them has decreas
ed very materially, and Pa. Journal of |
tho furm gives as the reason foi the de
clension that "it results from an almost
indiscriminate shipment of all kinds of
white pigs iu Chester Co. When the
detnjjjjd was at its highest point, dealer;
werWcouring tho country, and buying
up any kind of pigs so they had no black
hair, aud shipping them abroad to. tlw
disappointment of purchasers, and dis
credit of the Chester Whites. They cni
scarcely be claimed to be a distinct breed
but ai?e only the result of many years
careful~cr?ssi?g,. aud not bniving thoir
characteristics iixcd, show ? strong tend
ency to rev?rt to their original state."
