THE LATE M. OFPENBACH.

The Graphic gives the following jottings respecting M.
Offenbach, the musical composer, whose death was recently
recorded
"M. Offenbach was a martyr to illness during the
last ten years of his life, and often worked his best
when suffering most. Of late he spent his summer in
the well-known Pavilion of Henri IV. at St. Germain,
the resort of so many Parisian celebrities, where, in
the middle of July, the poor invalid, wrapped in a
fur dressing-gown, had to shut all the windows, as
the least draught would have been fatal. When his
companions came home the evening, the Paris
Figaro tells u IF hey often expected to find him dead,
but instead h rd him hard at work atthe piano,. and,
indeed, only a few hours More his death the
composer was correcting the score of his latest
work, Les Coates d'Hoffirtann. M. Offenbach was
most fidgetty over the production of any new
piece. He would sit at home all the morning per-
fectly silent, his feet higher than his head, until
rehearsal time, when he was rolled up in a fur exit,
furnished with an enormous cigar, and taken to the
theatre. There he inspected the most minute details,
and wkilst perpetually 'crying Tres bien, obliged thy
actors to go over their parts again and again. As he
grew excited he would rush about, fling off his furs,
and seize on the first thin coat which came to hand
regardless of the owner. He was an admirable stage.
manager, and would cut up the most charming
portions of his score if he saw the least sign of
dragging."

The EARTHQUAKE in TRANSYLVANIA.

The Pc&ter Lloyd gives a detailed account of the
earthquake which seems, to have been felt generally
all over Transylvania on the night between the 3rd and
4th inst. From about seven o'clock in the evening
rumbling noises were heard throughout the night, espe-
cially in the hilly districts. About 6.12 a.m. a shock
was felt which lasted a couple of seconds, and the shock
was repeated, in some place twice, in others as often as
ten times. Doors were opened and shut, windows rat-
tled, bells were rung. In several places a movement of
the ground was felt, in a direction from north-west to
south-east; in some places this movement lasted as
long as ten seconds. In the neighbourhcod of Tovis a
small railway-station building was overthrown. At
Felvinez the shocks were very severe, lasting fully two
minutes. Several public buildings had rents in the
walls, and nearly the whole of the ceiling of the
Reformed Church fell. At Bistritz the people were so
alarmed that they rushed from their beds into the
streets and open places. In general the disturbance
was greater in the western portion of the proviuce.

"JUVENILE SMOKING."

A conference of Sunday school and days-school
teachers, Band of Hope conductors, and others, was
held on Monday night in the rooms of the Young
Men's Christian Association at Manchester, to con-
sider the "increasing habit of juvenile smoking, and
the best means to counteract it."

Dr. Emrys-Jones, of the Royal Eye Hospital, who
presided, laid special stress upon the injurious in-
fluences of tobacco upon the sight, and said he was
convinced that the use of tobacco, say of half an
ounce a day for ten or fifteen years, resulted in
serious injury to the eyes and sometimes in absolute
blindness.

Resolutions were adopted setting forth that "as the
habit of using tobacco is usually the first step in a
lad's downward career, Sunday-school teachers, Band
of Hope workers, parents, ministers, and clergymen
should endeavour to secure children from its dangers
by signing the pledge against tobacco, alcohol, and
other narcotics," and urging upon schoolmasters and
school boards "the desirability of some special teach-
ing in the schools upon the nature and results of the
use of tobacco as well as of alcohol and other
narcotics." The following resolution was also
adopted
"That as physicians of the highest eminence declare
tobacco to be injurious to health and longevity;
.as smokers
smoke to gratify the same artificial craving which induces
drinkers to drink; as careful statistical investigation shows
that the smoking teetotaller is five times as liable to break
his vow as the non-smoking teetotaller; as smoking is an
unmanly leaning on a solace to care and labour, neither
sought nor needed by women, enabling the smoker to be
idle without growing weary of idleness, tending to take the
ambition out of him, and to make him happy when he should
be miserable, and content when his divinest duty is discon-
tent ; as it is almost impossible to smoke in an inhabited
country without causing discomfort or nausea to others;
and as, finally, the passion for tobacco has been the cause of
many serious fires and disastrous explosions, this meeting
entreats parents, teachers, and all others who have influence
with British boys to warn them against this barbarous habit
both by precept and example"

THE MARKETS.

MARK-LANE.-MONDAY.

Firmness was still the characteristic of the grain trade at
Mark-lane. The New York market is steady. Supplies of
English produce were moderate. gr foreign there was a
good show of eats, fair of wheat, but lhort of other articles.
For English wheat a firm inquiry prevailed at fully late
rates. Foreign wheat was in steady request, and quite as
dear. The barley trade was strong, especially for malting
produce, which realised extreme rates. Oats were in quiet
demand and about the same in value The inquiry for
maize was steady, at rather more money. Beans and peas
were fully as dear, with a moderate inquiry. The flour
market was firm, a fair business being done at prices ruling
against the buns'.
- -

METROPOLITAN CATTLE 31ARKET.-MONDAY.

Notwithstanding the favourable weather, the cattle trade
was dull, with a weak tone. Supplies were tolerably good.
Those of beasts from our own grazing districts were more
liberal than usual, and the quality and condition were
improving. A large show of beasts came to hand from
Ireland. Throughout a want of animation prevailed, and
oven the choicest brands were only saleable on lower terms.
The. best 'Scots and crosses realised Is. Cd. to Is. Bd. per
Sib. From the Midland and Dome counties we received
about 2.500, and from Ireland about 1,000 head. The
foreign side of the market was rather sparingly supplied
with beasts. About 100 Canadian formed the feature, with a
few Danish and Spanish. The market was dull, prices
ruling weak. The sheep pens were fairly well filled. The
demand was inactive at drooping prices. The best Downs
and half-breds realised 6s. Sd. to Cs. 10d per Slh . Calves and
pigs sold slowly at about late rates. At Deptford there were
about 2,400 beasts and 7,000 sheep. Inferior beasts, 4s: to
4s. Cd.: second quality, 4s. 6d. to ss. • prime large oxen,

METROPOLITAN MEAT MARKET.—MONDAY.
There was a moderate supply of meat on sale to-day, and
the trade was dull, at barely late rates ;--Inferior Is.

man's wages as a labourer had averaged 8s per

in a very poor state, and he (Mr. Bretteil) was
quite convinced that the man was a proper patient
for the Dispensary. Whether he was a propef

thing—(hear, hear).—After further discussion, the
amendment was carried by 18 votes to 4 tor the
resolution ; and afterwards. upon the motion ot
Mr. Renaud, sen., seconded by Mr. S. Bagott, it
was resolved that the resolution passed in 1877
should be more strictly acted upon, and that if
necessary a circular should be sent to the sub-
scribers cautioning them against the improper
issue of tickets.—Votts of thanks to the consulting
and visiting surgeons, the committee, clergy, and
ministers of the town and friends of the society,
the Earl of Dudley, and the bon, sec. were accorded
and the retiring members of the committee re-
eltcted.—lt was also agreed that the committee be
empowered, whenever they thought tit, to issue two
additional tickets for each acting annual sub-
scriber. —The usual compliment to the Chairman
for presiding closed the proceedings.

THE ENGLISH AND AMERICAN COAL

TRADE.

In the north of England the coal trade is reported to
be in a healthier condition, the demand being better not
only for household but also for steam coals. Some-
what similar reports come from Wales and South
Yorkshire, prices being firm, with an upward tendency,
in consequence of the active demand experienced by
the coal proprietors. In some •of the collieries the
miners are also sharing in the improved state of things,
better wages being obtainable. In Scotland the min-
ing disputes have now entirely ceased, and in con-
sequence of recent experience it is not likely that a
strike on an extensive scale will be attempted for some
time to come,
In connection with this subject it seems probable
that an attempt will be made to introduce American
anthracite coal into the London market this autumn.
The great advantages this article possesses for metro-
politan consumption is that it is smokeless. For
domestic use a very slight alteration in the style of
English fire-places would be necessary; and while in
point of cost it can compare favourably with our
home produce, it has no disadvantages which a little
experience would not easily overcome. Besides being
smokeless, it is more economical, because of slower
combustion, than English coal, requires no attention,
and gives out a very strong heat. It is stated that it can
be laid down on the London wharf at 18s. per ton. The
successful introduction of this coal to the London
markets would be a serious blow to the north of Eng-
land coal trade, and the railway companies, whose
receipts are swollen by the high rates charged for
carriage, would also suffer ; but, on the other hand,
the Philadelphia. and Reading Railway Company, who
own the greater part of the anthracite coal-beds, and
whose shares and bonds are for the most part held in
England, would be very largely benefitted by the pos-
session of a new and most important market. As
assisting to mitigate the fog nuisance London people
have a strong inducement to use anthracite coal.—

MUMMY WHEAT.

The Rev. W. H. Sewell communicates the following to
Notes and Queries :—Being desirous to obtain trustworthy
information en the subject of mummy wheat growing, I
lately submitted the following inquiries to Dr. Birch, of the
British Museum, and am permitted by him to send a copy of
his letter in reply :
- - -

"1. Would you kindly inform me if you have ever
seen grains of wheat discovered in the wrappings of a
mummy? 2. If 'mummy wheat,' so called, is ex-
hibited in the British Museum, whence came it? 3.
Is 'mummy wheat' known certainly to have ger-
minated?"
- -

" I. In answer to your enquiries, no grains of wheat
have ever, to my knowledge, been found in the band-
ages of Egyptian mummies. 2. Mummy wheat is
exhibited in the Egyptian Room of the British Museum.
It comes from Mr. Sams's collection, but there is
no proof that it was found in 'mummies. 3. It has been
asserted to have germinated, but it is doubtful if it
was real mummy wheat; and botanists deny that it
could grow, the vital germ being close on the surface,
scarcely protected by a Alm."

THE MARKETS.

MARK LANE.—MONDAY.
At Mark-lane to-day quietness prevails. The mild weather
and the American prices check business and have a weaken-
ing effect upon prices. Supplies of home grown produce
were moderate. There was a good show of foreign
wheat, oats, and barley, and moderate of other articles. For
foreign wheat the market was inactive, at is. per qr leas
money. In foreign wheat dealings were limited, at a frequent
decline of is. per qr. The barley trade remained in a state
of inactivity. Secondary malting produce was, as usual,
all but unsaleable. Grinding was offered on former terms.
For oats the demand was less active, and quotations were
hardly so strong. Maize also was quieter, and was not so
well held. Beans and peas about realised late prices, but
the inquiry was reduced. The flour mutat was heavy at
drooping prices.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.-Ay.

Greater steadiness prevails in the cattle trade to-day.
Supplies were rather more liberal, but with more animation
in the demand prices ruled against the buyer. About aver-
age wipplies of beasts came to hand from our own glazing
districts. The Scotch receipts were more numerous, am 4
there was a good show from Ireland. A healthy inquiry pre.,
vailed at slightlybetter prices for finebreeds. The best Soote
and crosses made ss. led. to es. per 81b. From the Midland
and Home counties we received about 2,000, from Scotland
240, and from Ireland 1,209 head. The fore.ign side of the
market was sparingly supplied with bouts. There worn
about 70 American and Iso Danish. The trade was firmer a*,
hardening prices. The sheep pens were on' nooderAteix,
well filled. With a steady trade prices were lid. per alls,
dearer, the best Downs and half-heeds selling at N. B.d. tq
Gs. 10d. per 81b. Calves and pig? were quiet, but steady. At
Deptford there were about 300 beasts and 2,000 sheep. Primp

AN ANCIENT CUSTOM.

In accordance with a very ancient Civic custom
presents of black livery cloth of the finest material,
each 4-i yards long, were forwarded on Tuesday on the
part of the Corporation of London to the Lord
Chancellor, the Lord Chief Justice, the Master of the
Rolls, the Lord Chamberlain, the Vice Chamberlain,
the Lord Steward, the Treasurer and Comptroller of
the Household, the Home Secretary, the Foreign
Secretary, the Attorney-General, the Solioitor-
General, the Recorder, the Town Clerk, and the
Common Serjeant.
The origin of the custom is thus explained :—ln the
early periods of our history the retainers of great
lords wearing their liveries were so numerous as to be
dangerous both to the king and the laws. The dis-
orders arising from them required all the vigour of
the king and the Legislature to restrain, and many
statutes, extending from 1377 to 1504, were passed
for that purpose. An exception was introdueed in that
prohibition in favour of Guilds and fraternities and
men of the myseteries of cities and boroughs. This
probably gave rise to the " Liverymen " of the
various Companies, and is supposed to be the origin
of this gift of "livery cloth," as it is called.

HOW THE CANADIANS REGARD
HANLAN'S VICTORY.

The Toronto Daily Mail, exulting over the victory
of Hanlan, says: Twenty years ago England was as
supreme on the river as she ict now on the seas; and
though she has lost the wreath which Chambers and
Renforth wore so well, it is satisfactory to know that
"the sceptre has not departed from Judah : " her off-
springs are still to the fore. If they were not born on
the Thames or Tyne, Hanlan and Trickett are none
the less British oarsmen; and as they struggled over
the historic course, it must have occurred to every
thinking Englishman that the might and strength of the
Empire are no longer confined to the parent Stara,
Australia can put an eleven into the cricket-tiela
equal to the best in England; and, on the water,
Canada can easily overcome the best man England or
the world can produce. If John Bull is not satisfied
with the prowess of his youngsters, all we can say is
he ought to be. Hanlan is not only invincible, but
unapproachable. As a representative Canadian, his
unparalled achievements with the oar give Canada a
prominence before the world which no advertising
could give it if we spent a year's revenue in guide
books. We are largely in his debt on this account.

WRECK OF A SCHOONER AND LOSS
OF SIX LIVES.

•
The large schooner D. L. Fish, manned by a crew of seven
hands, has been lost with all the crew except one seaman.
The vessel, with a cargo of phosphate. left New
York for Port Royal, South Carolina, on the 21st ult.,
and went ashore on the Diamond shoal, nine miles
from Cape Hatteras, on the evening of the 22nd. The
captain and crew lashed themselves to the rigging,
but notwithstanding this precaution, the captain and
a seaman were washed overboard about three p.m.
on the following day and were drowned. Half an
hour later the masts fell, and the vessel began to
break up. Owing to the heavy sea all the boats
had been washed away, and two men, named G. G.
Snowman and W. M. Snowman, got on a piece
of planking, leaving the remainder of the crew, three
in number, on the bow of the vessel. The vessel
broke up soon afterwards, and the three men disap-
peared. The weather was bitterly cold, and the two
men clinging to the plank suffered terribly. On the
day they left the wreck, W. M. Snowman died of
cold and was washed off the plank. The other man
drifted about until half-past one on the morning of the
25th, when he was carried one mile north of the Cape
Hatteras signal station. He ultimately landed on the
beach, and, notwithstanding his long and painful ex-
posure, he was able to walk to the lighthouse keeper's
house.

GALE'S 2,500 MILES WALK.

Throughout Saturday and Sunday Gale made good
progress with his task of making 2,500 miles in 1,000
hours, going a mile and a quarter at the beginning of
every half-hour. The weather on Sunday was beauti-
fully fine, and so the number of visitors to Lillie
Bridge Grounds, where the feat is being performed,
was very large, nearly 8,000 persons passing through
the turnstiles. At ten o'clock on Sunday night he
had completed 895 miles, was going well, and was
oxtremely confident of bringing his task to a successful
ternlination.

After the crowds left on Sunday night Gale, who
had been going fast and well throughout the day,
went much slower, and early on Monday morning he
experienced a return of the light-headed feeling
which has troubled him of late—the result of the
reaction after the excitement of Sunday. With a
little care, however, his attendants brought him round
again before daylight, by which time he was going on
as well as ever. Previously, viz., at midnight, he hA,d
completed 900 miles. In the forenoon and afternoon
the weather, previously somewhat dull, brightened up
considerably, and there was a fairly good attendance
at times. Throughout the evening he continued to
move in good form, answering promptly to the signal
of the judges. At a few minutes to ten he had
finished 955 miles, having at that time been walking
for 764 half-hours out of the necessary 2,000 to com-
plete the match.

Throughout Tuesday Gale walked in splendid form,
and, apparently, almost as fresh as when he started.
Indeed, he appealed in really better condition than
ever. He was at times during the small hours some-
what drowsy, but as soon as daylight appeared he re-
covered and went as well as ex er. As noon advanced
a slight mist, which had previously been prevalent,
passed off, and a splendid afternoon followed. There
was a fairly large attendance, the company including
several ladies, and when at 3.30 he entered on the last
mile and a quarter previous to attaining his I,oooth
mile, accompanied by White, of Gateshead, and his
attendant Robinson, he was Ipudly cheered. His time
for the distance then was 17 min. 35 sec. the fastest
since the first few turns at the start. At its conclusion
he was presented with floral trophies by some ladies.
His 1,000 miles were completed in 400 hours, thus far
and away excelling not only Captain Barclay's
record, but Gale's own previous marvellous perform-
ances. During the rest of the evening he continued
in capital style, and at ten o'clock he had finished
1,015 miles, having been walking for 812 consecutive
half hours.

AN AMERICAN VIEW OF THE GREEK

QUESTION.

The New York Times says in the Gulf of Smyrna a
dozen Euiopean squadrons might ride securely, with
a city of 150,000 inhabitants under their guns. There
can be little doubt that such a demonstration would
bring the Porte to terms. Greece will receive Euro-
pean aid. Greece has many times been patient under
wrongs in obedience to the advice of the friendly
Powers. She has waited long enough, and unless the
decree of the Berlin Conierelice was a meaningless
and empty formula these Powers will now show in
what their friendliness consists.

DEPARTURE OF THE INTERNATIONAL
FLEET.

CASTELNUOVO, Sunday, 12.80 p.m

At half-past ten o'clock this morning the fleet left
the Bocche di Cattaro. The first ships to sail were
the Monarch, Thunderer, and Heltcon, which were
saluted with fifteen guns by every vessel, and answered
with the same number. The spectacle which after-
wards took place was very striking. The Austrian
squadron and the German ship Victoria formed an
escort of honour to the British Admiral's ship. The
Germans played "God Save the Queen," which was
answered by loud cheers from the British ships. Next
followed the French and Italian ships, and the Russian
last: At sea salutes were again fired. Every vessel
was decked with flags. The weather was splendid.
The Austrian and German ships have returned hither
awaiting further orders.

The Vienna correspondent of The Times remarks :
" The end of the naval demonstratien has produced a
feeling of relief something like what would be felt by
taking out the charge of a loaded gun which, although
well guarded, is constantly being handled. It may in
all fairness claim its legitimate share in having con-
tributed to the pacific solution of the Montenegrin
question, but the whole course of it has brought the
conviction home very forcibly that, though it may be
an effective instrument in extreme cases, it needs very
careful handling, and ought to be avoided as long as
possible. The experience gained in this respect is not
likely to be lost."

THE AMERICAN PRESIDENT'S
MESSAGE.

The Seision of the United States Congress was
opened on Monday with the reading of President
Hayes's Message. The Message congratulates the
country on its increasing prosperity, the peaceful
character of the recent election, and the cheerful
acquiescence of all parties in the result. Among the
other subjects referred to by President Hayes are the
opposition to the constitutional rights of the negroes
in the south, Civil Service reform, the suppression of
polygamy in Utah, the Fortune Bay fishery dispute,
and the Panama Canal.

NATIONAL INSURANCE.

A Correspondent (J. L.) writes to The Times :
Sir,—Between £7,400,000 levied annually for poor
relief and about £2,000,000 contributed by the working
classes to friendly societies, the aggregate amount
raised every year in England and Wales for the pur-
pose of relieving and staving off pauperism is about
£9,400,000.
Assuming that paupers are happy, that every mem-
ber of a friendly society is securely provided for, and
that the present system of Poor Law, aided by these
societies, works admirably, yet it may be asked, can
no cheaper and yet as efficient a plan be substituted
for it! £9,400,000 is a heavy insurance charge to pay
annually.
It is proposed by Mr. Blackley that every person
previous to or on obtaining 21 should pay £lO to a
national insurance fund, making for himself thereby
once for all a secure provision against sickness and old
age. This scheme, if carried out, would cost just
£4,000,000 a year, as the number of persons arriving
at the age of 21 in each year is.nbout 400,000.
The present Poor Law system costs virtually
£9,400,000 a year. Mr. Blackley says, I believe, that
the work can be done in a different way, and far
better done, for £4,000,000 a year. Does this sound
too good to be true?

TRY YOUR WEIGHT !—Hydroleine (Hydrated Oil)
has proved of the highest value as a food in con-
sumption and all wasting diseases, invariably pro-
ducing increase in flesh and weight. This preparation
of Hydrated Cod Liver Oil is tonic, digestive, and
ten times more nourishing, as well as far more
pleasant to taste than plain cod liver oil. Hydroleine
will nourish and produce increase of weight in those
cases where oils or fat, not so treated, are difficult or
impossible to digest. All tendency to emaciation and
loss of weight is arrested by the use of Hydroleine.
