DESTRUCTION OF FOXES.--The present Lord
Ventry has brought two
gamekeepers from Scotland to
Dingle ; and owing to the number of foxes they have
already killed with traps, they Zthe gamekeepers) have
deservedly won for themselves the grateful thanks of all
the farmers in this part of the country—as West Kerry
and the entire barony had been infested with those de-
structive animals. Within the last fortnight a huge fox
was caught in one of their traps, but ho was so strong as
to pull the stake out of the ground and the trap, with all
the gear attached,
through begs and marshes for a long
distance until ho was at last killod by dogs.—Cork Ex-
aminer.

EUROPEAN Troops IN INDIA.—The report of the
Sanitary Commissioner for 1866-67 shows that the death-
rate for the European army was 30.95 per 1,000 mon. This
was more than half as high again as iv the previous year,
much higher than any year since 1861, when it was 45.93
per 1,000. The rate of 1861 was the highest on record,
and 1866 the lowest. 1,071 deaths from all causes
occurred, and of these 471 arose from cholera. The
percentage of deaths from cholera per 1,000 was 13.84.
Next to cholera the largest number of deaths was due
to fever.

THE CLYDE PORTS.—The amount of customs
revenue collected at Greenock inNovember was £115,983,
as compared with £157,132 in November, 1867, and
£129,241 in November, 1866. At Glasgow the customs
revenue for November was £111,766, as compared with
£115,414 in November, 1867, and £102,411 in November,
1866.
