WAR IN EuRnpn.

BY late foreign arrivals we are forced to
the conclusion that war between Austria
and Prussia is becoming daily more immi-
nent. Prussian troops entered Holstein on
the 18th. The Austrians were concentrated
at Altona. These movements are regarded
as virtual commencement of war. II is
reported that 10000 Prussian troops have
been stationed along the frontier at Pocsin,
and that the Russian frontier at Cracow is
also partly occupied.
A Berlin journal praises Prussia for her
readiness to support the efforts to preserve
peace, and acknowledges that she IS now
again completely free to take whatever de.
termination she may deem expedient. The
same journal says that Prussia, having pro.
tested against convocation of the Holstein
estates, will doubtless follow up the protest
by active measures
1t is reported in Vienna that Russia con.
ours in the attitude assumed by Austria.
A public meeting at Altoona has adopted
resolutions thanking Austria for her declara-
tion in the Federal Diet, and expressing the
determination of the inhabitants TO uphold
the right of disposing of their destinies by
forming Duchies in the separate German
States under the sovereignty of Prince Au-
gustenberg.
The Frankfort Diet, on the 9Th, adopted
resolutions for the naturalization of the Fed
eral fortresses at Mayence and Rostadt, and
and the withdrawal of Austrian and Prus
sian contingents in those places to Frank.
fort.
The London Times of the 7th, remarks:-
Now the great tempest is rolling round to
the point where the first wrong was done.
1t is all for Holstein that Silesia is menaced;
but it is terrible to think how the storm may
spread. In the rear of Italy stands France,
and in the rear Of Austria stands Russia. v
1t is even said that the design of Italy against
the Adriatic provinces of Austria have sug-
gested some political concert between the
Emperor and the Sultan; nor does any body
seem to doubt that the war which begins
upon the Baltic, may extend to the Black
Sea.
1t is stated that, should collision take
place, the Austrian Army of the North will
advance against Prussia The crown prince
Of Prussia has been appointed Governor of
Silesia. During the mobilization of the
army, the Conservative Association of Ber-
lin had appealed to the electors to sustain
the Government in its foreign policy.
1t was stated that France had sent a cir
cular urging the middle German States 10
maintain complete neutrality.
The Prussian division under Gen. Fhess
had crossed the Elder River on the 7th.' and
entered Holstein. They are said to be order.

The Austrians were reported to be evacua.
ting kiel, and concentrating at Altona;where
Won Gabenz and staff had arrived.
On the sth the Prussian troops arrived at
Rendsborg and occupied the town. They
were peacefully met by the Austrian garri-
son, who withdrew from the town the same
day, and the parting was quite friendly.

GRIMES AND CASUALTIES.

J. N. Cornwall, on Friday night, laid
down upon bench elevated several inches
above the window sill, in the third story OF
his residence, in Pittsburg, and, falling
asleep, rolled out and fell to the pavement
below, killing him instantly.
On Monday morning the express train
from Norwich, Mass, to Worcester, ran into
a freight train at Auburn. The freight train
had been blown by the wind from turnout
on to the main track. The engine and nine
cars were thrown from the track and the
engineers leg broken.

rae PROFITS OF RAILRoADs.

Tribune of the Goth Instant
The Eastern and Boston and Lowell
Railroads have declared semi-annual divi.
dends OF four per cent, The business of
both these roads for the first six months Of
1885 has been unexpectedly large. The
stock Of every Boston Railroad is now above
par-the Boston and Worcester, the Western
and Boston and Providence keeping well
together at about 40 per cent premium
Should not the facts therein mentioned
stimulate our citizens in taking the stock OF
the Wilmington and Reading Railroads We

IMPROVED PLow-A CALIFORNIA INvEN-
TioN.-Mr John Mott of Contra Costa com-
ty, near Danville, has invented a new and in
genious double-revolving plow The plows,
two in number, are placed one above the
other, upon a horizontal axis, under the
beam and parallel to it. Its operation is as
follows; After the plow has passed across
the field, and turned for the return furow,
by the touch Of a spring the plow not in use,
and which turns an opposite iurrow, falls
down from where it is suspended, while the
team, in starting, brings UP the end which
has just been in use, and places it in posi-
tion whereit is locked awaiting the next
turn of the team, The invention is very
simple one, and promises to be of great val
ue in ploughing gardens or lands which
have been fenced, as well as ground where
dead iurows are objected TO, Mining Press,

VISITING FARMERs,-In ancient times the
English law required Il young man, on com
pleton of his apprenticeship TO travel over
the country certain number of years, work
lug at his trade, before he could be licensed
to make permanent beginning for himself
The object was to compel him TO become
familiar with the different modes in which
other craftsmen conducted the business he
had learned, so by knowing all, he might
become perfect workman, Travelling from
one farm to another, to learn what was going
on upon each, how this or that process was
conducted, what machines were successful,
which were failures which was tho most
profitable fruit crop and how best to produce
it, who had the most successful garden and
how it was managed, with the long catalogue
OF items on kindred topics-would be mere
repetition of the English obligation to be
come perfect in the farmers calling. There
are times throughout the year when most
men can indulge in this useful recreation, and
there are those who systematically devote to
it portion of every season. have indulg-
ed in it myself, and have rarely gone any
where without learning something that was
new to me, and many times useful.

SOUTHERN AcTIvITIEs.-P Pending those
important measures now anticipated, which
will infuse new energy into the South we
find great many isolated instances of ac.
tiyity in different sections which prefiCure
what win be general in short period. We
find that Northern capital gravitates thither
and in contact with the wants of the people,
evokes efforts which need only time and
extension TO bring the whole region into its
wonted wealth. Thus, this capital flowing
into Knoxville and Chattanooga, and into
Eastern Tennessee generally, has started
factories and built houses, and transferred
rich farms 10 men who first saw them under
Sherman or Thomas flag large cotton
factory is being built at Chattanooga, besides
several extensive steam saw miles, iron inun-
dries and other industrial establishments.
The old humber trade OF Georgia has revived.

saw mills at work on the coast sending their
lumber to Europe and to almost every part

and sixty ludies of our borough, compris-

daughters, took special car and went
pleasure seeking to Washington = not
"lhe city of magnificent distances" of
which Randolph made mention, but Wash
ington down below here, in the "Jarseys."
They enjoyed the ride hugely, and found
Washington a very pretty village, located
in beautiful section of country. They
were delighted with the appearance OF
the place, the symmetry of its buildings,
its pleasant door-yards, its broad streets,
and its smoothly planked side walks. Its
hotels, too, especially the one at which
they sojourned, came in for large share
of their admiration. The neatness of
the house at which they stopped, both
within and without, and the patience,
mcckness, and long suffering, of the land
lord, landlady and servants, were perfect
marvels to them. But Notwithstanding all
the surprises they had undergone, there was
one surprise greater than all yet in store
for them: Supper was announced-they
were escorted to the dinning room they
seated themselves around the table-tho
covers were removed, aud a luxurious
board Of empty dishes greeted their well
sharpened appetites. After going through
the motion of cutting and eating air, they
paid the modest price of 81 for the prlvi-
lege of rattliug their knives upon the
plates; and as reply to demurrer were
cooly informed by the servants,-that il
the landlord had provided liberal supply
of '' sour kraut aud schpeck" he would
Just have hit it. The ladies were de-
lighted with Washington, the landlord
and his servants, as well as with the ride
to and from that delectable place-but
they have an idea that excursionists to
Washington had better see to it that the
commissary department is well supplied
with provisions before starting from home
Their experience of Washington sup
per, at one dollar per guest, was the expe-
rience Of starvation we'll paid for.

following account of their transactions =
\ few days ago, two men, strangers, pass
ed over the plank-road, leading from
Stoddartsville to Goaldsbero, engaged, os-
tcnsibly, in the business Of purchasing g
cattle. They would call upon parties hav-
ing cattle, and after bargaining and agree
ing upon price, insist upon binding
the bargain By paying ten dollars down,
with the understanding that the bal
ance of the price was to be paid when
they called for the cattle, which would be
in ten days, fer sure. In each instance
the binding was done by the tender of a
Fifty dollar greenhack, on which the pre-
tending purchaser received forty dollars
in good money as change. After the
strangers had left the country, the farm
ers who dealt with them found that they
were out by the operation just forty dol
lars On each deal-every one Of the fifty
dollar grecubacks proving to be counter
felt. Our farmers, and others dealing
with travelling strangers should look out
for such customers as the above. The
country is full of them.
