COUNT TOLSTOY ON “A GREAT| SCIENTIFIO MISCELLANY.
INIQUITY."
The following letter appeared in the Time :- Sir,-As I am one of the individuals who, according to Count Tolstoy, are guilty of the great iniquity" of holding large estates fu land, which he considore rightfully belong to the people, and as I have had the ownership and entire management of my landed property for upwards of half a century, I trust that you will allow me a moderate space in four indispensable columns to reply to about soren columns, 1,400 linos, and more than 10,000 worde which this attack on the class of land owners contains,
Every candid person willingly and admitingly admits the sincerity and dininterestedness of Count Tolstoy, who, as a Russian landowner, EXPERTS. carries out his theories as for us he possibly can, and world fun complete them, as Mr. Stead ins shown, lag nu entice surrender of all his handed property. Like Heury IV of France, MANUFACTURERS, TUNERS he would wish that scary mum corld have e fowi in the pot for his dinner; and if, by the abolition of the present ownership of land, the permanent welfare of the whole population could be scoured, them. if I were still in Parliament, I would vote for such a compulsory measure just as I world have voted for the Act by which the Irish Louants are buying mut their landlords on very favourable terms with the assistance of a large contribution from the State. It is, however, absolutely and permanently impossible to carry out Count Tolstoy's sebene by which every man would have a right to use a portion of the land ou which he was born."-

Denis finds an increase in the suicides at individuals engage in agriculture, menfae Brussels up to July and August, the minimum tures, and commerce would give each of thera a patel of land worth ti 6. a year, whilst at only usually being in December.
hase it would cost £181,140, 00 yers purchase to buy out the landlorder and if all Ireland were thus equally divided among all those engaged in agriculture, commeren, and manufactured at the cost of the British taxpayer and the money were raised by loan at per cent, this would involve additional taxation to the extent of £-0885,500 of an annual subsidy to Ireland.
I will sugos, however, that all the estates in hand. in Treiand wore ccnfiscated; the 16,000 parsons who now he'd land worth on an arbrage more than £10 an acrs of yearly rout world the jave to: fve up more than flf their lead to the 589,000 individuals who have no land, whilst the average tanant in Ireland has the greatest diffioulty in supporting his family on the holding which he now possesses, and could not live ou less than half its present extent.
Again. how are the 1,389,0 additional indivi duals to be housed on the land? The Duke of Devonshire states that he has been numble to put up cottages under the regulations of the county councils under £300 per enttogo; and this would come to 2418,700,400, whist cho farm buildings gs, roads, drains, ditches, Ke, would bring the lofal east to about £1,000,900,000. It should be borne in mind that probably more than £100,000,000 of the valna of Irish land belongs to anortgagees. many of them widows and children and annui. tants and inchading family provisions. The capital invested in agriesitare in Ireland is £91,090,00, of which 1280,001,901 is in land, 259,000,000 in cattle, and £6,000,000 in suburins.
If the avenge farmer's holding is diminished by more than half, hess than half the existing farmer's capital would be raquired by them, and the 1,389,000 supposed now occupiers of what, according to Count Tolstoy, would be their own land would bave to find £143000,000 of capital to work the land, and would besides require a sufficient sum to faruish their bousos and to support their families for a year until a crop was produced.

The process makes it possible to cast various articles and parts of machinery that hitherto have had to be forged at great cost, and an Im- portant advantage is the delivery within a fos hours instead of the wait of one to three weeks for converting cast-iron articles into malleable iron. Furunces are already in operation in Germany, Holland, France and Hungary.
