MIDDLETON, May 80.

nl1DDLhlON, NAY OO'
For some weeks past the people living in
the Waikiki Valley, in the western part of
Orange county, have been attacked by a
disease which bafiled the skill of the ply
sicisns. In the case of the persons attack
ed, the symptoms were those of lead poison
ING, and in Instances whole families were
attacked. Sometimes the disease has re-
suited in death. To-day, hundreds are
suffering from the effects Of the poisoning
to greater or less degree. i'i..I
After much Investigation it was found
that these cases of lead poisoning resulted
from eating bread made from flour and
meal manufactured at mill at Phillips
burg, largely patrOnized by the surround
ing farmers. The miller did an extensive
business, running four sets of stones night
and day, and keeping one, set exclusively
for custom C'grst') work. This was an
old set, needing frequent repairs, and the
holes were filled, from time to times with
lead, instead of with cement. Some of
these filled holes were as large as a hens
egg. In grinding grain, OF course thislead
was almost imperceptibly mingled with
the -four, In crude form it was compare
lively harmless, but when the bread was
fermented and subjected to the baking pro-
cess, the particles Of lead became carbonate

Matters at Windsor, Opposite De
trOit-SOme Account Of Ihe Fee
nian Plans of lOPeratlOns-The
Military Positions Aimed at.
The excitement atoWindsor this morning
was very great, and the most wild and inn
probable rumors were atloat. Men stood
upon the street corners Ganvassing the
particulars of the affair and speculatmg
upon the result. .aH.r .r auaI
Mr.. McMicken, about 10 o'clock, came to
this city and telegraphed to the British
Consul at Buffalo, who replied, one hour
later, that the invasion had really taken
place, and that the FeDians numbered 2, 600
men, we'll armed and amply prepared for
any emergency. .'tttSrG Eul .grOWliD
This later news, coming, as it did, from
an official source, dispelled any doubts that
might have been entertained in reference
to the commencement of hostilities, and
orders were at once issued to the command
ant of the military camp to prepare for the
conflict. In short time an orderly was
hastily. .Ihaovingb about notifying thelJvOl-
unteers to assemble aS,early as possible, at
the barracks, for drill. An order was also
issued for the artillery company there to
hold themselves in readiness to march at a
moments notice. yi b9Dsa9 sb49E slros
hon Orders have been issued to- troops along
the Canadian railroads to hold themselves
In readiness to move at any moment.
About g O'clock 400 regulars left London

from Toronto on similar mission, and the
general impression is that the Feniahs will
all be eeaptured before six O'clock. a9i'spJ /

the invasion was anticipated, hut, was not

German Unity.
lc'orrespOndence Of The London Morning Heraldl

lt0FTcSrondtRce 0) hc London Morning HfFdtdl
BERLIN, October 80.
While many people, Oh tho one hand entertain
the most extravagant hopes Of the establishment
Of German unit, there are, on the other hand,
umphant. anticpations of q change in Germany
will end in disappointment. The latter persons
consider it as on exceedingly significant and
retired to Rugen. They think 'i his Illness nas
feigned and this fiction is to them clear proof
that the political tide is over and that the ebb has
pootion bctweon his absence from Berlin and the
resistance which the claims OF Prussia meet
with in the different German countries. ASS proof
of power they point to the circumstance of DI.
Van Beust having boen called to the head of tho
Austrian Ministry Of Foreign Affairs, and though
thoy admit this nomination ia not an accomplished
fact 1t is neyertheess IN intention not to be given
up, and NJ. Won Boust as for somo time past boon
not only tho adviser Of King John, but also of tho
Imperial Cabinet. A further proof that Prussia, in
hor path to the leadership Of German affairs, has
been smitten with paralysis, is beheld in tho sepa-
rate aspirations beginning to raite their heads in
Germany are indeed tho most serious obstacles
against which Germany has to contend in her
endeayors end to obtain ono uniform administra-
tlon OF her affairs. The relationship Of the nglo
courts among each other is An ever active volcano,
whose obstructive lava hitherto always annihilated
tho verdant plantations from which unity was to
emanate. It may, therefore, be easily imagined
chat this destructive force is, at the present con-
juncturc, not left untred. The esuccess which King
Johann has obtained in his negotiations with Prus-
sia cannot but encourage tho other princes whose
powor is exposed to curtliimont to try similar
plan OF resistanco. and already it is affirmed that
the e1,Klns of Hanover has obtained some con-
siderable CONCESSIONS His plenipotentiary s said
to hayo succeeded not only in acquiring for him
An extraordinary pccuniary compensation, but also
IN securing for his son the succession in tho duchy
ofBrunswiok. In reply to all this it should bo re-
memhere1 N that Rome was not built in ono day, and
that tho keystone Of the edi ice Of German unity
though it may again and again slip from the hands
Of those who ondoavor to carry it up to the sum-
nit in order To see that unity, 'rowned and COM
pleted, is not, therefore, the stone OF Sisyphus
up the mountain rolled with O rumblng tGIin-
dering noise, back to the bottom 1t is impossible
that German unity should at onoo emanato roady-
made and furnished from the multfariousness of
little States, as Minerva Of yoro out OF Jupi-
ters head. 1t must be formed gradually, like all
mutable things in this world, through labors,
struggles and difficulties.

A Military Prison I'm France.

A Paris correspondent writes "Ono Of tho

Midi specially reserved for tho of military cul

The inmates Of tho Chcrcho-DIidi aro divided into

of uniform among tho second class somewhat

Mining OH tho Pacific Coast.

We learn from tho San Francisco Mercantile
Gazeae that tho mining interests upon tho Pacific
coast have never been in @ more healthful eondi-
tion than now. Tho yield OF the placors has quite
equalled the average Of formor yoars. To this re-
suit the heavy spring rains have contributed in no
slight dogreo. An important improvement has
been introduced into the system Of artificial water
supply in the employment of iron pipes; and this
iB but one instance of tho gradual but constant
improvement, in tho methods Of mining. These
improvements havo caused many abandoned
claims to be reocoupied, and haVe given value to
vast quantities Of aurforous onrth, with which the
early miners could do nothing. Now surface dig
much apparent richness. Those in Mendocino
county arc now worked with profit during tho
rainy season.
In placer digging. tho minos on tho Upper Co.
Iumbla have turned out badly. In Idaho o few
discoveries havo boon mado, but tho principal
wenlth Of that section is in its quartz From
Northern California tho reports worry favorable.
The roturns from the central and Southern gold
bearing sections Of the State Indicate that tho
gold production is increasing from year to year.
Tho greatest gains haze boon made in the river
beds, cement and gravel. But it is in her quartz
that tho great wealth Of California lies Quartz
mining is still attended with some uncertainty and
trouble, but it has become decidedly remunora-
tive. There is much loss speculation, muoh less
difficult about claims, much more economy, sci
ence and common sense in working tho mines.
Tho silver minos Of Nevada now yield on tho M av,
erago, forty-fonr dollars per ton. The Immense
wealth Of the Pacific coast, in it's other minerals,
is beginning to attract attention. Copper, coal
and quicksilver abound. or iron-ores there are
tsunliited quantities" Salts arc plentiful, and OF
o superior quality.
