steam ON the Erie Canal.

The theory of applying steam to nayiga-
tion of the enlarged Erie Canal is now
being thoroughly tested, and so far with
satisfactory results. The steam canal boat
Charles Wack has made trip from Buff
falo to Albany, and returned. The Wack
is the largest sized boat that can navigate
the enlarged canal, having capacity for lao
tons of freight, and she consumed ten tons
of coal at cost of $50 on a trip from Al
bany to Buffalo-364 miles. -Four mile:
per hour the average speed.
The L. P. Slernberg, another Buffalo
Canal steamer, has made successful trip
to Rochester and back, and public demon
STATIONS were had in both cities in honor
of the Inauguration of the important change
in canal navigation. The boats speed was
live miles an hour, and it is confidently be-
iieved that steam is about to work reyo-
luton in canal transport. Governor King,
members of the Canal Board, and Others
Interested in the enterprise, gave eclat to
the occasion. One speaker said it remind
ed him of the 26th, Of October, 1925, when
the Seneca Chief started from Buffalo, on
her memorable way to the Atlantic.

The Potato Rot--Its Cause and

The Potato R0t.-Its Cause and
A friend has called our attention to an
article from the Buffalo Commercial, of
June 29th, wherein is related the discover
les of Mr., Henderson, in the cause and
cure of the Potato Rot, or blight, which
annually occurs throughout this country.
Mr.. Henderson's theory, after years of
investigation into the probable cause of the
potato disease, is, that it is attacked by a
small bug, the egg of which is planted with
the seed, Invisible to the naked eye,) hatch
es, stlngs, and poisons the TUDOR, and after
deposlting more eggs which are soon hatch
ca; emerge from the soil and poisons the
vine. Mr.. H. has shown the Editor Of
the Commercial by placing healthy plant
and some of these bugs together in jar,
that the vine is blighted in four days after
the attacks of the insects. The conclusion
ofthe Commercial is that Mr.. Henderson's
discoveries in this respect are the real
Cause of the Potato Rot. 1t is further sta
ted that there is less cause from rot in san
dy soil than wien it is compact, giving as
a reason therefor that the particles of sand
cripples the insect, by falling into the pores
of the earth made by the growth of the
plant.
The plan for the cure of the rot, or rath-
er its preventative, is believed by Mr., Hen
derson to be in sprinkliug quick-lime upon
the seed before planting; "the moisture
will Dissolve the lime, and bathe the tubes
in a caustic alkali, which will destroy the
egg"
Our farmer friends may profit by the ex-
periments of Mr.. Henderson as given above,
and save annually much care and labor
The commended preventive to the rot is
simple, and within the reach ofall, and can
be practlced at trifiing cost. We say to
those who are thus troubled, land who
among the farmers are nota to preserve
this preventive till another season and try

SILENCE THAT DREADFUL COUGH

Or death must carry you to your silent grave.
Why delay while there is yethope Consumption
is caused by impure humors of the blood being de-
posted in the cells of the lungs. Hence, the
lungs are like spring of water, when rolled up
by the dirt mad, if clear water constantly flows
through,t the springs, impurities or mud will be
conveyed away by the pure water. Just so with
the blood when kept in clean or pure state; as
it constantly flows through the lungs it carries a
way all corrupt matter. and perfect health will be
the result From two to four Pills taken every
night or every other night, OF enough to keep the
bowels regular, will in a reasonable time cure
consumption. The reason these pills are used
more than all others, is because they are made OF
purifying vegetables, and cleanse the body from
all corrupt matter and drive out disease of every
description quicker and in a milder way than any
other Pills

The GREAT EARTHQUAKE IN NAPLEs.-A
letter from Naples, speaking of the late earth
quake, says: go
$50 far back as the 9TH of December, during
the. night. a loud thunder underground had been
heard, like the report of a great mine being
blown up This was followed by trembling
of the earth. In the commune of Bella, the
earthquake of the 10th leveled hills, turned the
land over and over, and formed deep valleys.
In half an hour before the first shock took place
a light, as that of the moon, hung over the coun-
try, and strong exhalation of sulphur was per-
ceived On the following morning, after the
double shock, and the thunder, about two miles
distant from the city, a piece of ground, con-
sisting of nearly 600 moggia, was found encir-
cled by trench from 10 to 80 palms deep, and
of the same width. The official journal of last
night says THE description which the Inten-
dente of Bassilicata sends us is such as to draw
tears at every word. The details are two awful
to report publicly, but the disaster is cruel be-
You'd conception. People speak confidently O.

evils, scarcely anything has been done. Fiftee1
days after the time, bodies were rotting unde

on the eighth day; pigs had half eaten th'
