+ THE present year promises to be one OF
unusual activity in the insect world. The
locust in the North, the Hessian fly 10
Southern wheat fields, the chinch-bug 10
the far West, and the poisonous potato
bug almost all over the country, will do
immense damage. Their appearance in
such unwonted numbers is supposed to be
due to the greater heat of last year, aud the
, deficient rainfall, which was scarcely more
than three-fourths of the average all over
the world.

A WRITER in the Boston Advertiser
makes a suggestion which is worthy OF
consideration. 1t is that each city and
large town, either by payment once for
all, or by an annual appropriation, should
establish scholarships in our colleges free
to one or more of its most deserving
pupils. The expense would be small, but
the plan would have quickening inau-
ence upon the entire body of pupils in any
municipality. Scores Of meritorious young
men might in this way obtain liberal edu-
cation, which otherwise they will be unable
to acquire.

A mass meeting, under the auspices of
the Irish Democratic Union, has been
held in the Cooper Institute, New York,
ssto repudiate the action of the admins
-tration in confirming the treaty of the
Joint High Commission Anthony A.
Griffin presided, and after few remarks,
introduced General w. G. Halpine. Reso-
lutions were passed denouncing the treaty
in almost every provision. The CHIEF
feature of complaint was that no redress
had been obtained from Englands outrage
in imprisoning American Fenians.

THE leading members Of the Paris Com
mune do not appear to have been above
using their late opportunities for getting
money. The snug sum Of million and a
half of francs is said to have been found
upon the person of one Communal officer,
while upon the corpse of Minister money
to the amount of 4O9, 900 francs was dis
covered. Doubtless many of the leaders
hoped, after filing their purses, to go into
comfortable exile somewhere beyond the
reach of the government arm, but they
have found that arm more potent and pitt
less than they imagined, and instead OF
escaping to live at ease, they die ignominl-
ously, leaving their plumber to testify
against them.

THE Democratic politicians of Tennes-
see begin to realize the necessity Of putting
an end to Ku-Kluxism, and in one of the
districts have resolved to organize them
selves into posse comitatus, to be ready
at the call of the United States marshal or
sheriff, to arrest and bring to justice any
persons violating the provisions OF the
Ku-Klux act in Tennessee, and binding
themselves to pursue with the "hue and
cry" the offender beyond the confines of
the district. They also offer standing
reward of 800 for the arrest and convic-
ton of every offender in the civil district,
and request the Democrats of other coun-
ties to organize similar clubs under these
resolutions. This action, though perhaps
having no higher motive than partisan
success, is in every way cornmendable,
and it is to be hoped that its influence may
be generally felt.

THE good Mr.. Emerson has met with
something in California which has made
him mildly dubious of one branch at least
of his own philosophy. To friend who
hoped that he was not disappointed by the
Yosemite Valley, he replied: "No, no !;
it is the only thing that quite comes up
to the brag' Mr.. Emerson, we believe,
was once theoretically of the opinion that
a man would not find anything abroad
which he might not have, found at home,
although practically Mr.. E. has been given
to what the old lady in Dickens novel
called "meandering." But the Yosemite,
we are obliged to believe, is beautiful
enough to disturb any mild, stay-at-home
conclusions-is one of the few localities in
the world worth the trouble of journey
to look upon.
