REAL ESTATE. Opening of the Season ot Suburban Sales. The Situation in Respeot to City Property. VALUES IN THE NEW WARDS. ‘The operattons of last week contributed out lt- tle to the history of this market, the public sales being almost wholly forced in one form or other Of legal direction, and the private dealings con- tnuing quite restricted. The more hopeful {eel- ing, however, regarding the future of the market, ‘Which has been before noted here, sustains itself, Rotwithstanding that existing condisions in re- ‘specs to dealings have in them so little of encour- agement. Attention at this period of the year is usually drawn to SUBURBAN DISTRICTS, Where large offerings are made under the genial influences of summer sunshine and holiday attrac- ‘dons to induce the tollers of the metropolis to set Up the Lares and Penates of their worship away from the busy haunts o! the metropolis, the dis- ‘tracting strife of tenement houses and the demor- alizing infuences of ward politics. Prices, too, are made to conform to the tone of the inquiry, there being generally ample opportunity of profit to the seller within an exceedingly large margin. The season of these sales was fairly {naugurated last week in one, the success of which was duly noted. ‘io-morrow being @ German holl- day known as Pfingsten, that is Whit-Monday, is Vo be availed of by a German proprietor at Little Neck to offer some 1,200 building plota in that Beighborhood, The occasion 1s to partake some- What of the features of a festival becoming the day, comprising a ‘ree excursion and collation, The sale will be of much imterest as showing, to a large extent, the status of suburban property on the market at this ume; property in every way unexceptionable in respect to locality and health- dulness, adjacent to arailroad and addressing itself With special favor to w special class, who have always heretofore been the best buyers of subur- ban realty. The result will largely determine ‘whether or not we have a market tor property out- side of New York city, and of what character, ‘This 18 @ point about which there is at present considerable aonbt. Mr, Johnson's saie of last Week seemed to give assurance that there was A MARKET FOR SUBURBAN PROPERTY, but we are so fresh irom the consideration of an exceptional success in the existing market for city pisearty rhe Mottestate sale—that itis not safe to uiid up the expectation ol renewed activity upon a single instance of thut disposition, There are causes, however, operating to stimulate dealings in suburban property that are deserving of atten- tion. First, there is tue virtual failure of rapid ‘ransit for another year, or what 1s 80 regarded, It may be well enough tor a few thoughtiul men who study things deeper than the seeming, to ar- gue that this fresh postpopement is ies accompa- Died by progress; that we are in reallty nearer to Tapid transit than we were a year ago, because, besides the increasing pressure that each year brings upon the Legisiature, we are nearer agree- ment upon some particular plan, to which we will ive @ more united support, and hence have largely increased the chances of a successful re- sult, This may be true, too, as it doubtless is—in- deed, it would be diiticult to gainsay it—but THE MASS OF THE PEOPLE ‘who do not stop to examine deeply and weigh the proand con o! indeterminate chances, believe we are no hearer rapid transit than we were a year ago, aye, two or three years ago, and they wil continue to hold this opinion, no matter What charters may pass the Legislature, until they see the first section ofa road com- pleted. It is from this mavs of people that the Tanks of suburban buyers are recruited, and as scepticism is strengthened by every new justifica- tion it acquires, these ranks are not likely to suf- fer apy diminution because of the events o! the Jast session at Albany. Here, then, is one reason ‘Why it may be sate to expect a lair buying disposi- tion in the suburban market, Again, the past year has been noticeable for A FALLING OFF IN BUILDING ENTERPRISE 4n the city which, still further depressed by the re- <ent panic, does not promise an early revival, | The antagonism in respect to wages and hours of | labor which has prevailed so long between the Master mechanics and the journeymen operators and laborers was the initial agency in producing the present stagnation in bulidmg operations, As &@ rule, the master buiider is not a capitalist, Dut in most cases a speculator, who employs the capital of others in building enterprise. Delay in tie past, on the part of pullders to meet engage- ments with those irom whom they borrowed money, arising out Of the losses incurred because ol unexpected strikes, has c)ecked alike the will- ingness of the capitalist to risk his money in fresh Ventures O1 this description, and provoked such caution on the part vo) rte gaye is incompatibie with any great speculative activity. This 1s the sition of the builuing trade to-day. To use a jomely summary “oue’s alraid and the other daresn’t.” The capitalist i3 afraid to risk his | money at ordinary rates of interest, to be put into new buildings, and the builder dare not bid for | that money an acceptable figure in view of the | present state of trade and possible contingencies. f course ‘WITH A REVIVAL OF BUSINESS IN COMMERCIAL CIR- CLES, ‘with increased profits in other departments of in- dustrial enterprise, this feeling of distrust will ‘Wear out and disappear, and building on this island ‘will become as active and profitable as ever, But, in the meantime, this distrust and the causes which produce it and its effect in this city have ail significance in rela- tion to suburban property, While building 1s re- atricted in this city 1rom whatever cause, popula- tion does not cease to increase, hence with each year comes the greater ettort at relief on the ST ES Se SST TT ——.

NATIONAL AGRICULTURAL CONGRESS Aims and Objects of the i Farmers. Result of the Meeting in Atlanta. ATLANTA, May 23, 1874, The recent assembling in this city of the Na- tional Agricultural Congress has created in the public mind a spirit of inquiry as to its aims and objects. The Congress held its third annual session here on the 13th, 14th and 15th inst. The second was held at Indianapolis. There were, in 1871. two large agricultural bodies, Northern and Southern. They united together and became the National Agricultural Congress. This Congress is purely a representative body. Agricultural or kindred so- cieties contributing $5 are entitled to member- ship, and to one delegate, without reference to membership. In this are included Agricultural Colleges, State Boards of Agriculture, Unitec States Department of Agriculture, Farmers’ Clubs, and state Agricultural Societies; National, State and Subordinate Granges. Patrons of Hus- bandry, &c. AIMS AND OBJECTS. It is manifest that to produce union and co-opera- tion among the agriculturists of the country, there must be &@ common fleld where they can meet on common ground to eliminate and treat of those interests of the farmer which are general, from the strictly scientific to the thoroughly practical. All the elements, open and secret, of the farmer's movement come together in this congress, to har- monise and unity their action, which is indispensa- ble to success, All questions touching the industrial interests of the country at large are considered with deliberation, in a national, and not local point of view. Remedies for the many dificulties and @isadvantages under which farmers now labor are Suggested. The object of this congress 1s not to wage War upon railroads or any other interests, but to take such intelligent action as will relieve the agricultural world trom the evils that afflict it, RESULT OF THE ATLANTA MEETING. a meeting held in Atlanta was productive of od. eerne President, in his message, made the follow- ing practical suggestions :— May it not be expected that as“oar immense vacant part of our people, wuo find themselves more and more crowded each succeeding year. Rents, too, jo up, and, with the auility to advance rents, the landiord grows more and more indifferent to the comfort of the tenant, Thus each year witnesses @ pew exodus to Brooklyn, Jersey City, Hoboken and the surrounding country districts. As in the case of the latter the move 18 not @ hasty one nor lightly considered, it is but natural that many who decide upon it aiter much deliberation, having the means, seek to establish a homestead for them- selves and their jamilies, where they will be re- heved alike of the uncertainty of « tenancy and the oppression oj Jandiords, itis these CONSIDERATIONS OPERATING UPON THE MINDS OF THE GREAT MIDDLE CLASS give.that activity each recurring spring and summer to suburban reaity. The isc of May brings with it so many reminders o! the torments ana annoy- ances of city life in cramped apartments, that it follows naturally country property should bein active demand immediately suvsequent thereto, Witn the design i the mind of the inquirer to be our of the city next year in @ house of bis own, ‘This instinct may be saiely relied apon to rapidly people the new wards wienever rapid transit sup- hes ready means of access. It has peopled New Sere 80 a8 to make it uimost @ mere suburb of New York city, anu is rapidiy peopling Long Island, which Will in time contain a population tn Suffolk county that may riv.i Kings. In respect to CiTY PROPERTY there is not much roon, ior expectation of activity veiore the iali, unless, of course, in the new wards, concerning whic uy be applied most ot the re- marks above made respecting suburban Pets There Is tair grouad, h wever, upon which to build the anticipation vi an active surket for city realty in the tail. In tue first piace the adjournment of Congress, prom:sed on the 22d of Juge, will leave | ample time for tie recovery of @ better tone in | general business, which, it is likewise to be hoped, will be helped by the reinvigorating effects upon business meno. the summer vacation, With the ‘return from the seasiae aud mountain rest will come a more healthiul understanding of the situa- tion, and the ghost oi inflation having been laid in the suri or mountain dew, Capitalists will begin to take heart again, und, instead of keeping their money locked up in bank vaults to loan at three and four per cent on call, they will seek invest- qments premising larger profits. Real estate just @¢ this time will commend itself to them as THE SAFEST OF ALL FORMS OF INVESTMENT, Its history during the recent panic proves this, ‘there not being one single instance Ol the many compelled to suspend payment during that event- Tul period being obliged to do so thiough unprofit- able investment in realestate. Yet all other forms Of security, witn rare exceptions, suffered sorting at the hands of lenders when offered as collateral, wod many parties of ample wealth found them- selves seriously embarrassed When seeking accom. Modation through this severe scrutiny to which | their previous investments were subjected. An | experience like this cannot put have its weight with men whose wisdom is but the accumulated teachings of just such experiences and whose secrete is based upon iacts of this character. hile, therefore, it may be a long time belore a new season Of speculative excitement such as | Jound its corrective in the late panic will come | upvn the country, we may salely ere with the adjournment o1 Congress and the shelving of experimental financial jegisiation a revival ol in- terest in all the legitimate channels of trade, not the eee, Fesult Of Which will be exhibited in this marke! ‘The sollowing recently recorded transfers of property in the new wards, where the considera- tion was over $1,008, will serve to point the qual- ity of existing Values in that section :— BRCORDED TRANSFERS OF NEW YORK REAL ESTATE, TWENTY-THIRD AND TWENTY- FOURTH WARDS, |f couniry fills up it will be found tar more economl- cal and equitable as arevenue system to support our government by direct taxation, derived from the States, rather than the present indirect system, burdened with @ multiplicaiy of officers, partiai in its disiribution of Denefits, redounding (o the imterosts of a very limited area of our country rather than to the advancement of the largest area and the largest population? the filling up of the East, North. West and South is destined, in my opinion, to work out such a change im the balance ot political power that our growing numbers will only re- sieady step ans fixed purpose to carry any and ures having equity on their face that may be hecessary to build Up agriculture to its true position in the iront rank of American society. And permit me in this connection, gentlemen, to remark that the most effective method to reduce the | cost of transportation ig to encourage the building of manufacturing establishments to Work up the raw maverial. &xperience has demonstrated that the nations | ‘which supply clothing for the worla are more prosperous han those which” supply food. England, scarcely larger in territory than the state ‘of Georgia, ‘is gather ing to her bosom the wealth ot the world. ‘To-day, through the mighty agencies ot her one thousand steam engines, consuming 1,000,000 tons of coal annually, and iultipiying a hundred jold her productive capacity, she is “shaking every bearing tree and catching in her lap the most precious fruits of every clime,” And she does this in spite of the fact that she has to send abroad the great ships of the line and collect the raw material of her industries, And then New England, in a vleak, Innospitable clime, where the winter reigns six monihs in the year, bas grown so owertul through these same agencies, that her wealth only rivalled by that of her namesake across the oceai, Now, the question arises, 11 these people, remote trom the cotton feuds of the south and the grain fields ot the West, can ship this cotton and this grain thous of mules, paying transportation thereon, and grow upon their profits so wealthy as.te dictate the financial policy of the world—why is it, L ask, that we of the great Missi- ssip} valley—a valley occupying 1,455,000 square miles, and traversed by the grandest river upon earth, with lakes into which old England might be thrown, a valley extending through thirty de- rees of longitude, twenty three degrees of fatitude, with every variety of climate and an exuber- ance of soil unknown except in the valley of the Nile— Why ls is that we of thia valley cannot, by using the same agencies, attain the same greatness?’ Diversty in pur- Suits is necessary to agricutiural prosperity. There must be markets as well as products, and the nearer wo can bring the markets to the producer the greater his profits ‘This want of markets, gentlemen, in my opinion, Is the jets drawbacks which the farmers of the country ave i their operations. TRANSPORTATION. The committee submitted the following report, which was adopted: be Whereas it is evident that cheap transportation of the commodities of a country ts a necessity of agricu.tural prosperity and national development ihe agricul. ture of the interior of our country 1s ‘now paralyzed for Want of facilities tor tratispor.ation of its products tow seaboard, that, while we recognize the value of railroads | and the necessity of further railway extension, we deem e cost of transporting the crude products of’ the field, the jorest and the mine so disproportionate to the cost ot water carriage as to render imperative the duty of Con- gress to Improve the navigation of the rivers of the in- terior ana connect them with the ocean by rtificial waterways, thus giving to the Mississippi Valiey coi tnuous lines of water transit to the seaboard; and that the railway system has engendered monopoiy and un- just discrimination. the ovils of which can only be obtained by completion of water lines under government conwol, theretore, be it Kesolved by the National Agricultural Congress, That it is the duty of the national government, which has so. long and so liberally fosiered foreign commerce, to enter at once upon the work of constructing a 1m Of water- ways adequate to the presentand prospective wants of inland transportation, aud to continue it by annual in. stalments of aid to full completion, until unrestricted channels of trade shall be opened, not only through the entire length of the Mississippi, but connecting that reat river with the Atlantic Ocean, by way o/ the lakes. y the Ohio, Kanawha and James, and by the Tennessee and Savannah rivers, Kesoived, That this Convention consider appropria- tions by Congress for such a system wise, national in- vestments, which will, at no distant day, repay the government by increased revenues created by enhanced Production and developed wealth of the country.

SCIENTIFIC AND INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION. The following was offered by the committee on the subject and unanimously adopted :— Whereas measures are Reacio for the appropriation of the annual net procees he sales of the public lands to the advancement of the general cause of educ tion; and whereas agriculture is the domimant occu| tion of the American people. pre-eminently deserviny their care and encouragement; and whereas maby 01 the agricuitural colleges of the nation as at present en- dowec are incapable of the full development coutem: lated by the act of Congress of 1862; and whereas at @ last annual convocation of this body at Indianapolis, Ind., strong oppomtion was manifested on the part of the members wo the further endowment of these colleges by Congress, yet it 1s now telt by the leaders of that opposi- tion that these colleges are, and, under prudent mi ment, will continue to be of great service in the advance. Ment of the cause of industrial education, and that they deserve sull iurther aid and encourag tional Congress, respecttully ask that ill be passed by your body at its present session for the appropriation the annual net proceeds of the sales of these lands, in Such manner as you may direct, to the agricultural ¢ol- leges contemplated by sald act of Congress. AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS, Professor J. RK. Dodge, of the Department of Agriculture at Washington, addressed the Con- Fe on the subject of agricultural statistics, heir bearing and importance. The uses of statis- tics, in 18 Opinion, Were to Contrast the actual With the poesivie mm'production by living examples of accomplished resuits; to weigh the effect of over-production in the diminution of prices; to Ulustrate the folly of dependence on disiant and uncertain markets ior primary products; to show the correlation of the indusiries and the advan- tage ol Rete, | numbers of consumers upon the prices and profits o/ agriculture, and to mark the progress o1 the sciences in their application to the business o1 the cultivator and to aid the Turalist in keeping pace with such progress. Less than @ third of the area of the States, and less than one-fifth of the entire domain o1 the United States, is mapped into 1arms, god only one-fourth of the arm area 1s tilled. Wheat occupies an area less than the suriace of South Carolina. If the yield equalled that of England half of that woula suffice. Corn, which grows irom Uregon to Florida, covers a territory uot larger than the Uld Dominion. The potato crop could grow in the State of Delaware, though yielding less than 100 bushels per acre. ‘Tobacco is grown on the area of @ county twenty miles square, NEW ENGLAND AND THE WEST. The average iarmer of the Eastern States disre- gards the logic of tacts which reveals success only in high culture. The value of the annual product in Massachusetts to each farmer 1s $442, while in Iilinois it is $560, The great diMiculty is her corps of industry has sixty-one per cent of farmers instead of twenty-five. Double track railroads, canals, free trade, &c., will conler no benefit while she continues to have less than fourteen per cent of her people engaged tn | Manulacturing and mechanical inaustry. It is folly to depend on foreign markets, In some years but three per cent of our wheat is exported. An increase of the yield of Wheat {from fliteen to eighteen busheis per acre in France would equal the deficiency in Great Britain, 1n Minnesota seventy per cent of her cul- Uvated area is put in wheat, and filty-seven per cent of ner people engaged in its cultivation ; cight al cent are engaged in sending it to market; a large proportion of the fourteen per cent of me- chanics and manufacturers are butiding mills and grinding wheat, and its twenty-one per cent of projessional men expect much of their income trom wheat, The home market is the oniy reliable and permanently vaiuable one for this cereal, and the nearer to the place of growth the surer and larger the benefit derived. THE ERROR OF THE SOUTH. The error of the South has been in over-produc- | tion of cotton and over-estimating its yield. A surplus of corn may be put into meat or wool or iskey, but a surplus of cotton must wait ‘or the slow grinding of the mills o/ the fabricating gods. Cultivating cotton to the exclusion of other articles is Keeping the Southern States in com- parative poverty. It does not produce money enough to give wealth to a population of 9,000,000. Witn three-fourths of ten States employed in agri- Culture the value of her agricultural products ex- ceeds but little that of New York and Pennsylvania, where only one-fourth are empioyed. “(GREAT EXPECTATIONS." Professor Dodge expressed the hope that the wise deliberation and effictent action of this Con- five percent o! our people shall furnish a better. and more varied agricultura! society than is now obtained by the forty-seven per cent employed in agriculture; when the twenty-one per cent now gaged in mining, Manufacturing and the me- chanic arts may become forty-two; when twenty- five busheis of wheat shall grow in place o1 twelve per acre; when an acre in cotton will always pro- one @ bale, and clover appear in place o! brown sedge. From this synopsis of the aims and objects of the Congress and the salient features of its last session, it will be seen that it is a national and not @ sectional body—one having in view the general interests of the entire country, based as these in- terests are on the prosperity of our agriculture. Cincinnati, Ohio, 1s the next place of meeting, and the second Wednesday in July, 1875, the time for its assembling. FEMALE OLERKS IN WASHINGTON. 1 am saddened by the reports of the terror which fills the hearts of many of the poor women clerks who have families depending on them. ‘They who have “friends at court” are advised to appeal to them; but it happens that those who have no such influence to reiy on are not only the most needy, but usualiy the most deserving, tne very best clerks, obliged to *‘work out their own salvation with tear and trembling.” They are industrious, circumspect and reliable, It a strict inquiry could be made, and the names of such employés as have other means of support should be stricken from the rolls, there would be more humanity, if not j tice, in these dismissals. A iriend suggests that all women who are in the departments through “improper influences” should be at once dismissed tosave the others. But that is clearly impracti- cable, Another says:—“All women about whom there is abreath o! scandal should be obliged to Walk the plank. Women in office should be like Casar’s wife—above suspicion.” But how about esar? How sient and desolate the eniorcement of such a rigid code of morals would render yonder Marble halls! I trust there would be a quorum. SO0LETY IN THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS, [From the Greeley (Colorado) Tribune.) Miss Muller likes to go visiting too well to make much out of her farming operations.
