The Origin of Oninine.

A parliamentary paper on the progress
of India in 1872 gives some Interesting
information relative to the cultivation of
the quinine plant, which was introduced
from South America in 1860 into the hill
districts of Hindoostan. 1t appears that
there are now 2, 630,2,5 plants in the
Government plantations of the Neil
CHERRY hills alone, without counting
those of private planters in this and in
other districts. The largest trees are
30J feet high and more than three feet
in girth around the trunk. The area COW
cred by the plantations amounts to $50
acres, and is largely added to every
year. The bark under cultivation is
more productive in quinine and the
other febrifuge alkaloids than the wild
bark of South America. During last
year :, 295 pounds of excellent bark were
sold in the London market, while Co.
6SS pounds were shipped to the local
mandatory. This year 10000 pounds
will be sent home. The alkaIoid is
manufactured on the spot in an exceed
ingly crude form for the use of local
medical stores, and hundreds of fever
patients are thus annually cured.
THE Presidents health is more
hopefully improving, and his friends be-
gin to believe that he will be almost re-
covered by the time Congress opens,
though he will never be capable of his

Our Supply Of Wheat.


Reports from all parts of Europe are
more or less unfavorable to the wheat
crop, with the exception of Russia,
where the harvest is regarded as a good
average. The most unfavorable reports
appear to come from France, where the
crop is stated to be above thirty per
cent. below the average, and making it
pretty certain that that country will be
large importer of foreign wheat and
-four during the coming winter. The
Constitutional, paper usually well III
formed on such subjects, and not given
to croaking, estimates the possible de-
felt in France at 40, 900, 900 bushels,
and from that high figure down to
10000, 900, the actual amount depending
on circumstances yet to be developed.
The other importing countries of Eu-
rope, according to the same authority,
will be England, Italy, Holland, Bel
GUM, and Switzerland, who will proba-
bly, want 100, 900, 600 bushels in the ag-
gregate, making the demand from these
six countries 100000, 900 bushels. To
meet this prospective demand, Russia
and Hungary alone, i'll Europe, will be
able to compete with the United States;
and, if prices on this side should re-
main at the present range and rates of
freight continue moderate, there can be
no doubt of our ability to furnish at
least one-half of the required supply
At any rate the prospect to the Western
farmers of dispOsing of their surplus
wheat crop at fair prices could not be
better than at present. Philadelphia
