The census of England was all
taken in one and the same day. Mid
night of Palm Sunday was fixed as
the census hour. There we're 81, o
snumerators engaged in the work in
England and Wales. In the State OF
Georgia, having nearly the same area,
there were 192 ennmeratOrs to take
our recent census. In the whole of
the United States and territories, at
last census, there were G, 451 enumera-
tors. The result of the English GEN.
u shows an increase of over 2,6OO,-
600 since the previous census in 1861.
The increase from 1851 to 1861 was
twelve per cent, and for the last ten
years thirteen per cent.-a greater in
rease than at any other decade dur
ing the existence of the Government.
The number of females exceeded the
number of males by go, 764. The
quantities of food of every kind i'm
ported into the United Kingdom have
increased largely since the last census
was taken; impOrtations of cattle 120
per cent. ; fish 107 per cent. ; wheat
IS per cent. butter and cheese ll3

cent. and imports increased 81 per

Terrible Earthquake-An Entire VII.
l0Re Swallowed mn

LONDON, July 2S.-The earthquake
in the PHILIPPINE Islands, May LIST,
affected, In a terrible manner, the
small island of Camiquin, five miles
from Misamis. For some months
previously, especially in March, there
had been a succession of violent
shocks, which opened extensive
crevices in the earth. Finally, on
May LIST, the level plain near the viii
lage Of Catarawin began gradually to
subside, until the tops of the houses
became entirely level with the surface
of the earth. This remarkable phe-
nOmenon attracted a large number OF
people, when suddenly some terrific
shocks were felt, and before the thun-
dering reverberations had died away,
the whole level plain fell in, engulf-
ing one hundred and fifty persons.
The plain became a crater of a vol
caao fifteen hundred feet wide, and
from it smoke, ashes, and stones were
thrown into the air. Apause till dark
succeeded, when there wa another
explosion, and a rain of fire followed.
Woods became ignited, and men and
cattle went flying before the flames.
The spectacle was frightful in the ex-
treme.s The volcano continues to
eject stones and earth. The inhabi-
tants have left the island, which for
merly contained a population of TWEEN
ty-six thousand.

CrOD Notes.

A correspondent Ofthe Ohio Farmer
writes as follows: - l have just made q
trip through Western Ohio and India
ma and can only verify the satisfying
reports which have before reached you
on the cheering prospect of an abun-
dant harvest for the husbandman.
Between Columbus and Dayton the
wheat crop will turn out full average;
oats large, corn vigorous, even and
full up to time, the hay crop, however,
was a little behind a good average in
quantity, butas isalways the ease I'M
der such circumstances, the quality is
superior, so the deficiency will be
very easily bridged over. 1 found
corn unusually promising on the
whole line from Dayton to that rail-
road spider web city Indianapolis, and
some fields fully tasseled out. Wheat
has generally been garnered and in
prime condition. In the vicinity OF
Lafayette I found corn as good as ever
was known in that section of the
country. Oats and grass rather light,
wheat good, and some kinds of fruit
never better. Apples will be album
dant, grapes q superior crop, but no
peaches to speak of. Potatoes seem
to be good everywhere. From Lafay-
cite l went to Fort Wayne and from
there to Toledo, thence to Northeast
ern Ohio, and found upon the whole
route about the same condition Of
things as I have given of certain
points. The farmer who complains
this season of "hard times" will be
an unhappy moral by nature.

The Chicago Tribune propounded the
following question to the New York
Tribune:
"Wil the New York Tribune let us
know the cause OF the failure of the
recent energetic and expensive at
tempts Of Secretary Boutwell, to
fund orr National debt at a low
er rate Of interest to-Wit: at five per
cent, OF under? Before the passage of
the act on this subject through Congress,
the Tribune cried for it loudly, and gave
a thousand positive assurances that we
could place a five per cent. bond or a four
per cent. bond on the market, and that
capitalists would be eager to get hold OF
these bonds. Now, why has the Fund
Ing bill utterly failed?'
The following is the Tri6Hne's answer,
which VIII be found explicit and TO the
point. The Tribune always striEes
straight from the shoulder"
"We understand that the great war in
Europe, that so suddenly broke out last
Summer, and 80 speedily absorbed a
large portion of the transferable wealth
Of Europe, was one cause of the. disap-
pointmeRt Of our hopes. Another was

policy which the great men of our Revo-
lutienary age i~naugurated, which their
cons revived after the peace of 1915, and
which RScFetary Boutwell, and this jour
nal still adhere 10. Let it be settled and
understood that we are to 60 on paying
the present debt as rapidly as our fathers
did their debts (which were not relative
" lighter than ours, and our National
credit will be equal to q requirement:
but if we are to sink into the European,
monsrchical imprudence of merely paw
ing interest in peace and augmenting
cur debt on every recurrence Of war, we
shall nave no such credit, because we
shall not deserve it. Let it be E$ed to-
day that we shall goo n paying One Hun

till we shall be clear Of National Debt,
and every one will realize that our credit
must steadily appreciate; but a formida-
BILE coalition of COpperheads and Free
Traders now threatens to break down

suffers in consequence.
We do not admit that the funding poll
cY is g failure. Sixty millions funded
at five instead of six per cent is 100000
per annum saved end this will largely
overpay the cost OF the effort, And we
do not believe the process Of funding is
finally arrested, as the Chicago TribRRs
and its motley allies so joyfully calcu-
late. We hope the Secretary may be
able to meet Congress with the tidings
that the first 500, 600, 900 of five per cents
has been taken, and 81, 900, 900 per annum

Sharp Shooting,

On Friday evening Capt. Travis, the
celebrated pistol shot, volunteered to
shoot an apple, q Ia William Tell,
from the head of Mr.. Henry Miller.
at the Theater Comique,-and he did
it successfully. At the appointed
time Mr.. Miller took his seat at the
farther end of the stage, Capt. Travis
being seated in a private box some
twelve PAGES distant. He took aim
and the apple was pierced near the
center but not stirred, apparently
from the head of Mr.. Miller. We are
in doubt which most to compliment,
the accomplishments of Capt. Travis
or the wonderful nerve ofMr. Miller,
who sat as cool as if he was eating his
dinner, when the diversion of a frac-
ton of an inch might have sent the
ball from the pistol crashing through
his brain. Mr.. Miller describes the
sensation a. very peculiar while sit
ting in the chair waiting for the final
shot. He says he felt as though he
could not move If he tried ever so hard
to do so, and when the pistol was fired
he felt something like an electric
thrill or shock pass through his whole
frame. Capt. Travis has been noted
for many years as the best pistol shot
ever known, and the feat he accom-
plished Friday evening shows that
with advancing years he has lost none
of his marvellous accomplishments
with the pistOl.-CIeUeLGHd Herald

A Minnesota letter says: From
every part of the State come the most
favorable reports of the crops. Wheat,
in some localities, will be short, but
the yield is good everywhere. Esti-
mates Of the coming harvest, made
with great care at the Office of the
Commissioner of Statistics, place the
total wheat crop between nineteen
and twenty millions. The yield of
corn will be larger by one-sixth than
in any previous year. The prospect
for a better price for grain seems to be
well founded. Heretofore all export
ed grain was compelled to seek an out
let in winter. This year there will be
two, and perhaps four. Grain will be
shipped ViG Duluth, from very large
territory, until Lake Superior freezes.

/ A gatherer-up Of old scraps of old
times contributes his findings to the
ChdrdoR Democrat. His researches into
the early days of the Western Reserve,
show that the first white child born on
the Reserve starved to death. 1t was a
child of Judge James Kingsbury, who
settled at ConReaut soon after the arrival
Of the surveying party, and his family
wss about the first that wintered on the
Reserve. During that winter his family
was in such Strengthened circumstances
for want of food, that Judge K. was
obliged to 60 to somewhere near the
present city of Cleveland for provisions,
and he, with his hired man, drew home
a whole barrel of beef, the whole dis
lance on a hand sled. Meanwhile his
child died from want.
Says the East Brady Independent: On
Tuesday morning last, on the arrival of
the Night Express, a horse, with buggy,
ran forward across the track and in front
Of the engine, and were caught by the
cowcatcher. and, strange to say, were
carried nearly half a mile, the horse es-
Gaping without a scratch, while the hind
wheels Of the buggy were broken but
very little. 1t was a remarkable inee-
dent, as well as a most remarkable es-
cape.

An interesting Scene.

Some months ago Mr.. A. J. Shu-
man sold to the Erie Railroad Co. q
lot Of ties, for which the agent agreed
he should be promptly paid. The
bill amounts to something like $3.50,
which remains unpaid. MI. Shuman
failed TO see the promptness, and
therefore recently employed d. L.
Rockwell, Esq, to collect the amount.
A writ Of attachment was issued
against the Company, and on Tuesday
Constable Shorts levied upon seven
or eight engines and a side track.
For a time there was quite an excite
ment, and the business of the road at
this point at 2 standstill. The relay of
engines intended for use on outgoing
trains we're all tied up, and some lit,
tie strategy was necessary to furnish
fresh engines for passenger trains.
Various means were restored to, even
Of running engines out of town and
making changes out ofthe Constable's
reach. The freight department stood
still. Mcknight an engine started
for Ravenna at a breakneck speed,
