He was cheered from the benches behind him. He
informed the House that the Government, 10 con-
sequence of the vote taken at an early hour on
previous morning had felt it their duty to offer
their designations and that the Queen had accepted
them In the circumstances, he thought it con-
venient that the House should, in conformity with
the usual practice, adjourn. and he accordingly
moved that il do on its rising, adjourn over till
Monday, when further adjournment might prob
ably be desirable. Then he sat down. Members
looked at each other in blank amazement. Presently
Mr.. Bernal Osborne rose, and remarked that the
statement they had just heard was meager beyond
all precedent, and called Mr.. Gladstone 10 state
what was going TO be done-meanlng who was TO be
Prime Minister, and whether dissolution would
take place. But Mr.. Gladstone declined to be drawn
out merely adding that what Mr. Osborne wanted
to know belonged TO the next chapter.
Members do not know what to make Of the sitpa-
ton. II will be clear enough to you before this
letter reaches you, but have heard from different
members very different differences to what course
events are likely to take. There ia no in specu-
lating about 1t. mention their doubts in order 10
show the singularity of the silence Mr.. Gladstone
has thought proper TO observe. He has. j don't
doubt very good for it, but he gives people
who don't like him an opportunity to say that he is
sulky and indisposed TO crafty natural curiosity
when nothing is gained by baking it. Comment of
that sort petty, but it is made and it might have
been worth WHILE things being they are, to take
course which would have stopped it. The matter
Is a very serious one TO the 6SS gentlemen whose
tenure of their seats hangs on the decision of the
next few days OF hours. g.. g.

| Many farmers do not feel able to
build large barns or places TO shelter
their stock, fodder, implements or even
all their hay, and it occurs that loss
/ is sustained as consequence. This
fault may be easily remedied by the
use of sheds with matched roofs. Sc
lect a convenient spot about the barn,
one that is dry, and lay off the ground
plan of the proposed buildi ng instead
of frame put up stout ISosts of the
desired height and with tile lower end
firmy imbedded in the earth. On the
tops of the posts set up place scant.
ling for rafter rests, the scantling de-
pending on the size of the building.
When those are firmly spiked down on
the posts, cut and fit the rafters, which
may be of small poles, then lath and
thatch in the usual way. Rye straw
is the best for this purpose, but
long, straight wheat straw answers
for the purpose admirably. This will
be an excellent shelter and feeding
place for stock, especially if the sides
are matched down just outside of the
reach of the cattle. Ii not needed for
stock, such a structure NAV be used
to store hay, grain, fodder, or imple-
ments, or anything desired. II often
happens that corn cannot all be- husked
before cold and rains set in, and then
such a place offers many advantages
as protection to the corn, the husk-
ers and the fodder. II the posts are
made of oak, cedar, locust, red elm, or
such imperlshable timber, the struct-
ure will last for generation, and u
hundred times repay the original out
lay. Thatched roofs have given place
to shingle aud metallic roofs, but there
is good reason to believe that, for the
purpose indicated, they would fill a
want of every farm. Buckeye Farmer.

DIR. Kenneth Stuart, in Calcutta, and
DR. Balfour, in Madras, in applying
cashew nut oil to both the forms of
leprOsy, are meeting with only partial
success, the Madras surgeon in medi.
cal charge of the penal settlement at

more valuable discovery in the same
direction. He is OF the opinion that
leprosy can be cured by the oil of the
gurjon tree. Every leper in the settle
ment is, it is stated, being cured fast
of this loathsome disease. In no case
has there been the slightest failure, and
the the disease has been arrested at
every stage. No doubt, says cor
respondent, the matter will be fully
reported when the experiments have
been completed In the meantime,
the doctor has very wisely resolved not
to make any stir about the matter un-
til his experiments are SO completed as
to leave no doubt respecting the nature
of the cure as well as its permanence.
This oil seems to be beneficial to all
descriptions of sores and ulcers, and it
has other properties which will be fully
disclosed hereafter The oil of the
gerion balsam or wood oil has long
been used all over India by the natives
for skin diseases aud sores In the
event of its turning out that leprosy is
durable, the discovery will not only be
valuable as regards these afflicted with
that disease but it will stimulate the
medical profession to further exertions
to discover the antidote TO other dis
eases of a like nature hitherto consid-
cred incurable.n

Consumption is a disease attended
with the formation, generally in the
lungs, of peculiar deposit called tuber.
Gle, which ends in destroy ing the lung
tissue. The symptoms are cough,
wasting away, loss of strength, and the
result is death. The causes are any OF
those that lower the system OF the
fowls, although it is possible that,
once established, it may become a
hereditary disease. Poor food, damp
and dark coops, are among these
causes.
1t is not possible to foresee the dis.
ease, for even in cases where the fowl
is calling, it is possible that other
disturbances are the cause. And it
will generally be very undesirable to
attempt to save the life of those at.

iron, cod-liver oil, ETC., may be tried.

small quantities, and at intervals, to
satisfy moderate desire, even if the
unyielding nature of these crude Jumps
did not prevent consumption in large
quantities quickly.

that salt at all to use with breeding

These crude Jumps of rock salt will
lay long time in the fields resisting

the use of fine salt, while the animals,
having free access Mt all times, are not
apt to consume an over-quantity at

900 persons Of all ages employed in the
manufacture of wooden goods. The en-.
fire product Of manufactured wooden is
valued Mt $l55, 200, 900, and the entire
capital invested in that business is but
800, 000, 900, much OF which is nominal

the manufacture of wooden goods are
about $50, 900, 600 a year. The relation

Many persons suppose that SILT Is
not really necessary to the health and
condition of any domestic animals, but
such opinions are, however, erroneous.
The use of common salt in our food,
and in that of the lower auimals, is not
a mere matter Of choice, or of taste; IT
is a necessary condition of animal ex.
istence. Hence IL is wise provision
that, like that equally indispensable
substance, water, salt is to be found
all over the globe; existing, especially,
in large proportion in the waters OF
great oceans as well as on the Ian. IN

Discovery in Physics.

Professor X. s. McCulloch, of Wash
ington aud Lee University, Virginia,
one OF the most prominent scientists of
the South, informs tho Smithsonian
Institution that he has made an origin
al and important advance in the devel-
opment of physics. He has succeeded
i'll deducing algebraically, from one
single formula the whole of mechanics,
including as molecular mechanics the
subjects of electricity, heat, light,
chemical action, elasticity, and magnet
ism. He takes what is now called the
doctrine of "energy TO be convertible
only, and not destructible, and sounds
upon il complete mathematical phys
ical structure, embracing the whole of
physics as a development of one single
formula. Tho only exceptions are
electro statical and electro-dynanical
induction, and these will form the SUBJ
iect OF special investigation. Undue
tion the Professor believes TO be mere
ly the development OF polarity at dis
lance without ascribing IL to one or
two fluids, or any fluid at all, but the
mathematical theory Isl perfectly re-
concilable with tho Franklinian hypo-
thesis, and Franklin's fluid may be
FresnePs luminiferous ether. Attrac-
ton aud repulsion remain ultimate and
inexplcable physically theologically,
however, theyare manifestations of the
Divine will. Professor McCulloch
hopes soon TO publish the results OF
his interesting and original investiga-
