in regard TO the number OF acres comprised In
these swamp lands, was Informed that he had
no data by which he could judge &C .1ratcly as
they were not returned Under that heau-the un.
cultivated lands beng returned as "woou, un.

are eleven million acres valued at forty-two mil.

to be introduced, has not US am informed been
determined upon. Some arc In favor OF the State
purchasing the swamp lands and others desire
the State to drain them and let the owners pledge
themselves to pay the expense In five or ten
years. II Is very much desired that owners OF
swamp lands will communicate their opinions
upon the method OF drainage which can accom-.
pllsh the work thoroughly at the least expense,
and at the same time not conflict With tile inter.
ests OF the owners.

The Foreign wheat Crop.

AS many calculations have been based
upon the idea that the wheat crop
is comparatively failure, we note 1t as
an important statement on the part OF
the Commercial Bulletin that the wheat
crop of Europe is the best that has been
oro,cn during the past ten gears. The But
letin says that all reports OF blight and
rust with which American papers have
teemed were foundationless and set
afloat for speculative purposes In no
mart of the "Old World" has the crop
been even a partial failure. In Italy
and Algeria the yield is unprecedented
Spain, which last year had to import
wheat, has this year been blessed with
a most prolific harvest, and there VIII
be a surplus for expectation. In Hun
gary the quality OF the grain this year
is very fine. though some doubts are ez-
pressed as to the quantity. In the
greater part of Germany the crops are
tolerably good. In the south OF RUSSIA
the Weld of wheat bids fair to be excel
lent. In the south of France the har-
vest is complete, and the yield OF wheat
is good. The general tendency ofprices
all over Central and Southern Europe
ia lower. On the whole our farmers can
scarcely expect that there will be avery
large foreign demand this year for
wheat, so consumers may felicitste
themselves over the prospect of once
more h haying cheap bread.

Soldier. Eaten by CanuibnIs.

The London Daily News says: "lfany
of US look forward to being eaten by
canuibals, he may wish to be informed
how be is likely to be cooked. 1t issa
comfort to know that the savages WIZ
may devour him are by no means devoid
of refinement in their culinary disposi-
ton. Some French soldiers were lately
taken prisoners by the Kanaks, and one
of them was killed and eaten. His COM
rades describe the process. The Kanaks
first decapitate their victims; matter
of no small difficulty, considering the
bluntness of their hatchets. Ten to
fifteen blows are necessary. The body
is then hung up to tree by the feet,
and the blood allowed to run out fer
an hour. Meanwhile a hole a yard
and a half deep and yard wide is
dug in the ground. The hole is lined
with stones, and then in the midst Of
them great fire is lit. When the
weod is burned down a little and glows
with heat, it is covered over with more
stones. The man is then cleaned out
and divided into pieces about foot
long, and the hands and feet being
thrown away as worthless. The pieces
of the man are placed on the leaves of a
large rose tree peculiar to the tropics.
The meat is surrounded with cocoa nuts,
banana, and some other plants noted
for their delicate flavor. The whole Is
then tied together firmly; the fire is re-
moved from the pit; the meat is placed
in among the hot stones and carefully
covered, is left to cook an hour. Wo-
men do not partake of this warriors
feast. Men alone are permitted to en-
10y so great an honor and so rare deli

Mrs. Farrell, once Mrs. Howe, says
the San Francisco Bulletin, the irrepres.
sible, dashing brunette, who has figured
in the police court o number of times
owing to the free indulgence of her con
vivial prepensities, was found on Davis
street by Captain Kentzie, last evening,
in deplorable condition, and taken to
the Harbor Police Station. She was
crazy drunk; her magnificent hair was
hanging in disheveled mass over her
shoulders, and her dress was torn in
shreds. Once behind the bars, she soon
lay in drunken stupor, to awake this
morning with craving for alcoholic
stimu ulants, which seemed to cause her
great agony. The history of this wo-
man il perhaps one of the strangest on
record--sad and dark. Born Of parents
in good circumstances in New Orleans,
possessed of naughty spirit, yet gener-
GUS to fault, she was remarkable hand
some and attractive. She became the
victim of misplaced confidence in the
brightest hour of her youth, and for tive
or three years led wild life. She was
subseq uently rescued from the Whirlpool
of crime. married a respectable man,
and was blessed with three beautiful
children. For ten years the couple lived
happily, when she became the victim of
intemperance, and behaved in the most
outrageous manner. Finally, the hus-
band deserted her, and she sank lower
and lower, until the good people of Pc
checo, her homo in the interior, took
her children away, deeming her an unfit
guardian. She became 30 degraded
finally that she spent every alternate
three weeks in the Contra Costa county
Jail, coming down here occasionally on
visit. She recently married Farrell,
known to our police force, and seems
now beyond redemption. She will be
placed on the boat this afternoon and
sent to Pecheco, where no welcome
awaits her.

Jem Mace, the Champion of England.

Jem Mace, the noted English pugilist,
having reached New York, fellow
passenger of the Harvard men on the
steamer City of Antwerp, the Sun of
the 18th gives the following sketch OF
his personal appearance and doings IN
the prize ring:
The hero of the ring is strongly
built man, dressed in the garments of
the color worn by the "inky Dane,"
with fingers and shirt-front resplendent
with diamonds. Take him in all, he is
not unlike severe Puritan. A stranger
would never take him for prize fighter.
In his hand he carried three hat boxes,
and beside him went his immense stock
of trophies of silver and Britannia metal,
which are to be displayed to his trans
atlantic cousins when he finds Mr.. Sam
Colville, who has invited him across the
stormy deep. Meanwhile he will dis
play himself before the admirers of the
fistic art and study the resources of our
mighty metropolis.
Mace is 80 years of age. He was born
in Norfolk, England. He is a pupil of
Tom Sayers, Heenan's doughty oppo-
nent. He is thought ore of the smart
est left hand boxers in the prize-ring
His fighting weight is 100 pounds. His
reputation as "pug" might stand
CHER than it does, but be once fought
in Cooked" affair one round only in
90 minutes! And his last tiasco was in
another "do" with OBaldwin, in which
he was in bed when he should have come
to the scratch. He holds the champion
belt that Sayers and Heenan contested
among the trophies that he has brought
to this country.

The Indianapolis Mirror gives its
opinion of what constitutes journalism
in this nineteenth century. 1t says !:
Journalism is the prostitution of the
sublime mission Of the press to the mean
and unholy uses Of getting noney and
power. Tits following public ssntiment
while appearing to lead it. It is often
to the base appetites Of the
public. 1t is low, mean, trucking to
the hydra-headed public, while pretend
ing to guide and controlit. The ability
to do this successfully makes success
full journalist. He must have an almost
intuitive perception of what will be
most agreeable to the public, and he
must give them what they want. This
is the disreputable feature of journalism
trucking with q deceptive appearance
of ofindependent reproof. There are other
features not so bad. Publishing news
at the earliest possible date after it be
comes news is en- important part of jour
nalism. And it requires an exquisite
sense to discriminate between what is
news and what is not news. Most pro-
fessed journalists are too apt to think
that what pleases them must necessa-
rily please the public"

The Referee in the AIicn-ncCoolc
Fight Arrested for Robbery.
lFrom the Omaha Herald, 7th.


On Friday afternoon last three gen
tlemen, known as Con. Reardon, Val
Mckinney and Ed. Baker, were Willing
away their time at the Tivoli Garden.
They say man enter the place, and it
struck Mr.. Resrdon's fancy that the man
had money. Enough. The man, who
happened to be a German, and dis
charged soldier, was invited to drink.
He accepted, and reciprocated the kind
ness. He was then asked to visit Billy
Mack's saloon, on the levee, which
he did. The party then escorted him
to the house of Mrs. Foster, in
the southeast portion of the town.
He was induced to remain there
during the night, and when he awoke
in the morning he found himself minus
TIVE hundred and eighty dollars. He
made complaint at the Police Court,
and officers were set to work at once.
Saturday afternoon Rearden was ar
rested, and Mr.. Billy Mack went bail
for his appearance, but yesterday morn
ing Mr.. Mack surrendered his bail, and
Con. was put in Jail. Last night VAL
Mckinney was arrested and locked up,
and a watch was set on Mr.. Bakers
movements. He had gone across the
river, but anxious to sleep in Omaha,
came over on the late boat last night,
and was arrested as soon as he stepped
ashore, and taken to Jail.

Military Expenses of Nations.

Before Mr.. MOTLEY went to England, (,
he delivered, before the Historical So
ciety in New York City, an address on
Historic Progress and American Democ-
racy. He drew frightful picture OF
the decay of true Democracy in Europe,
and exclaimed: "Alas! progress must
be fettered and baltering everywhere
under the military rule prevailing over
continental Europe. Reflect upon these
little figures in simple arit thmetic ::
France has 100000 soldiers; Italy has
500 600; Prussia about 100000; Aus
tria 100000; and Russia nearly l,0OU,-
OOO." This statement fell under the
notice of a well-informed British edi-
tor, who, without disputing the facts
set forth by Mr.. MOTLEY, called that
gentleman's attention to other facts
neither fiattering nor creditable to the
limited States. He showed that, what
ever might be the comparative numbers
of the armies of the different nations,
the United States last year spent more
on its army and navy service than any
other power in the world, excepting
Great Britain, and that our expendl-
lures were equal to those of Great Bit
ain, Notwithstanding the extensive and
costly colonial system of the latter, and
the extraordinary expenses of the brief
but arduous Abyssinian war. just THINK
of our army costing more than Frances
army of 100000, Italy's of 5OO'Uoo,
Prussia's of about 1,0O0,0 900, Austria's OF
800, 900, or Russia's of nearly 1000, ,OOo.
1t is startling: Under the management
of officials who countenance and prac-
tice extravaganza and corruption and
downright theft and robbery, every SOL
dier in this country is made to cost as
much as four or FIVE in France, Italy,
Austria, Russia or Prussia, but the SOL
dier, poor fellow, receives no farthing
of what is wickedly lavished on his ac-
count. Civil and military functisnaries
use him as pretext for practicing rob-
benefit.

:
The Boston Post gives the names OF
thirty-fve firms in that city, engaged IN
the weol business, and adds: PROBABLY
from five to eight millions OF dollars are
inye.ted in this business here. Ths
commission houses send ont agents All
over the country to obtain consignments
of wool. which they sell on commission.
The prices of wool, compared with iast
spring, are alittle higher. The iasnion
of using coarse cloths for busihess suiss,
similar to the Scotch Chevio goods, has
had the tendency to create q Large do
mand for American low grade woods
of which comparatively few are grown,
and to raise the price of these to that
obtainable for the finer qualities. But
even these, not being sufficiently coarse
for the style of fabric demanded, were
mixed with the better qualities selected
from the third class. Just now fine
woods are more in demand than at any
time since the war, and manufacturers
are making finer cloths than heretofore.
During the past year there has been a
great scarcity of long woods suitable for
the worsted manufacture, which is as
ssming Important. proportions, and
would increase much more rapidly if an
abundant supply of stock was assured.
The prices Of such woods continue to
rule high.
"Some idea of, the increase of this
business in this city can be obtained
from the following figures: In 1856
there were received into Boston by rail-
roads and sea, 31,71l bags of domestic
-,
this does not assume to show accurately
all received, as much comes in from
neighboring pullers, of which there is
no record. But the receipts of wool
last year in Boston wonld not vary much
from SO, 600, 900 pounds; very nearly as
much as the whole clip of the United
States in 1856. Then there were only
about seventeen houses engaged in the
wool trade-now there are more than
twice that number in this city"

A Religious Row. Too M any Labo rers
for one Vineyard. ss

The Rev. George Lyon claims to be
the pastor of the Methodist Church at
Peekskill, New York. Another rever-
end gentleman claims to be the anthem
tic spiritual teacher. Mr.. Lyon would
not acknowledge the authority of the
cenclave that sent the new minister.
The stranger, two weeks ago, went
early to the church, took possession Of
the pulpit and preached there, muck to
the disgust of his rival, who, however,
did not interfere. At the close he an.
nounced his intention of preaching
again the following Sunday At this
the Rev. Mr.. Lyon and sundry friends
became wrathy, and the latter announc
cd that Mr.. Lyon would preach. An
anticipated row drew together a big
crowd when the time arrived. The
stranger reached the church first, but
finding the door locked, jumped in at a
window, and seated himself in the pal
pit. The congregation subsequently
Hooked in followed by Mr.. Lyon and a
Mr.. J. N. Lester, of Poughkeepsie who
intended preaching on the occasion.
They argued with the eintruder but could
not get him out. They therefore let
him talk, intending to take possession
of the pulpit after the morning service.
The new man, however, had made up
his mind to preach in the afternoon and
and would not 60. He had brought his
dinner with him, and sat eating it till
his opponents left, in a hungary state,
for their own meal. He preached again
in the afternoon but. in the evening,
war was declared. The stranger took
occasion to charge Mr.. Lyon with run
ming the church into debt, and with
several other enormities, causing an
extensive amount of fun. He conclud-
ed by saying that he would preach again
on the Sunday following, remarking
with much originality, that he would
fight it out Oh that line if it took all
summer. Mr.. Lyon then refuted the
charges against him, saying the intruder
had announced his attention of preach
ing the Sunday after, but. added he,
"We'll see about thatp The police
were ordered to remain on duty in the
church last Sunday. The upshot of the
affair is not vet known.
