TIE CRoPs.-The Easton (Nld.) Gazette
says the farmers of that county have not fin
ishcd planting their corn in consequence Of
the wet weather. The wheat crop of Talbot
presents the most flattering prospects, but
many are afraid that it is making too rapid
a growth to mature properly, there being too
much sap in the stalk. The hay crop pro-
misses large yield.

SINGULAR PHENOMENON During the rain
of Yesterday, just about daylight. there was
shower of what seemed to be liquid sui
phur. The catch Of water in tubs. ciSterns,
&c, as well that as which flowed in the cut
rtcrs, bore on its surface thick yellow, green.
Sh scum which when stirred refused to inter.
minGle. Many timid persons were thinking
the world about to end, or that such freak
If nature was on unprecedented. But such
Is not the fact. Such shower occurred, we
think, III the Spring Of 1872, whilst showers
of fish, and blood have been frequent. As
to these things meaning anything we are
skcptical, though unable to explain them
from natural causes. The fall of huge me
teoiic stone at Charlotte, n. G.. on The 3lst
Of October, 1919 and its consequent eXplo-
sion, was much more alarming, yet all fears
were idle.

An IdcIdent In the Cars.

a correspondent of the Pitts burg Post,
wIlsng from the Mountain House, CfossJ III,
relates the following incident in tie cars, At
Ter leaving PIttsburg:
As sc lett the city we obscrvcd q small
boy named Suit, about twelve years OF aye,
poorly clad, but very Intelligent, having WITH
bin an infant ten months old, the Child Of
his sister, who died few weeks ago. The
lad had brought the infant from Iowa city,
where the mother died, and was on his way
to Harrisburg. The young uncle had cared
for it aud nursed it all the wdy--a weighty
charge for one SO young. 1t would not, per-
baps, have been 50 much remarked had o
young girl been the custodian Of the orphan
ed bate, but here was mere boy putting
away childish things and assuming all the
care, aud responsibilities OF parent, during
Journey OF a thousand miles at least. The
passengers manifested the greatest interest
10 the little wayiarer and lbs charge, the Ia
dies especially IN turn relieving the lad Of his
burden, as lee appeared to bealmost exhaust
ted with his long journey. Such coustancy
aud manlIuess IN enc 20 young is not often
exhibited, aud certainly well deserves the
name of heI oism."

Considerable excitement was created on

Pup,,c Highways for Roads.

The Legal journal, published at PIttSburg,
coLt.ins a decision vi the Nlsi Prius Court, Of
Philadelphia, on a motion for special injunc-
ton against the Second and Third street rail
road, argued june Goth. This decision lays
down the governing primer pie with respect TO
the public right to the use Of highways which
has been subject Of discussion recently
The public highways belong to the people,
and through the legislature the people may
devote them to such uses as the public con-
veniencc requires. Their authority is su-
prone, and they do not have to ask any ones
consent to such use rs the public may de-
sire the highways to be appropriated. To
build q railroad without authority o. Law,
would he nuisance which Court OF Equi-
ty could prevent, but when the Legislature
gives Is sanction, it Is no longer nuisance,
and no eQuiry can interfere.
