Liiiiethi Statib.—Mr Grant Aller, who hae been visiting America, was inte:viewed on his return to England. He conelder* country life in the State's more barbarous than in Europe, especially far the women. The farmers in the States (he says) are not capitalist farmers, but laboring farmers. The wife has .to do all the cooking, housekeeping, and washing for her husband and her sons, by whom the farm is tilled, and also for (he hired man if the boldin; is sufficiently large to justify bis employment. They hare leas leisure than the English laborer, aad they dwell more apart. They have no books excepting religious publications of a low intellectual type and the newspaper. The result ie that everyone who can live in town flies from the country as from a pest-smitten city. The over crowding of the great urban centres is one of the most difficult problems before American society. No one will remain on 1 ind longer than is necessary to enable him to get into the town. The unending monotony and heavy strain of the field labour have pi educed two ugly phenomena, of which 1 heard a great deal during my sojourn in America One is the prevalence of brutal murders. On this side of the Atlantic brutal murders are ..usually committed in towns; in America it'is the reverse. That is one phenomenon. The other is the fact that) he women in a good number of catch become insane.
