The Public Enthusiastically Browning re
port OF the working OF the affairs of the lnte-
/ rior Department. states that during the last
/ fiscal year 6. 655, 7424 acres of public lands
/ have been disposed OIL being less by ass, 81
acres than the quantity disposed of the pre-
vious year. The cash receipts of the office
during the same period, from all sources,
amounted to Sl,632, 745, which exceeds the
amount received from the same sources the
previous fiscal year by 1884 SS3. Nearly
one fourth the homestead entries were made
under the act of June 2lSt, 1866, which APP
plies only to the States of Alabama, Mlssls-

The lands still undiSpOsed of, amount to l.,

for establishing the boundary lines between

Opium, the Bans of China and the Stumbling
Block of Christian MissiOns.-The doctor of the
medical diSpenSary of the London Missionary
at Foo Chow, China, thinks that the greatest
of all difficulties to be overcome in the renOva-
ton of China is opium smoking, which is
barrier to all progress, spiritual or temporal.
IF this stumbling block" he says, "were
removed out of the way, it is impossible to
predict what glorious future lies before this
country to the missionary, philanthropist and
merchant; but, until this is done, little or
nothing is done to the purpose. This is what
all Christians and philanthropists have to strive
against. In the end it will prove detrimental
to commerce and industry. The importation
of the drug must be prohibited and prevented.
WEAVING or entieing the smoker once and for
ever from his inveterate habit seems impossible
to human effort" The Foo Chow medical
dispensary has prescribed the past year for
20,SI6 cases, 5.722 of. them being treated at
the hospital

which has been done at its expense, in Florence,
under the supervision Of the Rev. DR.. Revel,
so we'll known in this country as the President
of the Waldensian Table or Synod, and as the
head of their Theological Seminary in that
beautiful city Dr. Revel says; :" l did not
send the printer the last corrected page with
out thanking God for having permitted me to
finish this book" 1t is the first edition Of the
whole OF Diodati's translation which has been
printed in Italy since the reformation. The
electrotype plates have been in preparation for
several years. The New Testament was first
finished, and many copies of it have been cir
culated and considerable impression of the
whole Bible has heen already struck off, for
which and for binding one thousand copies,
the Managers at their last meeting made an
ample appropriation.
