Motschulksy, published by the Smith
S0nian Institution in 1885, which pre-
sents an interesting synopsis of the
methods practiced in Southern Russia,
including those occupied by the Ger
man or Mennonite colonies.
In the autumn, as soon as the labors
OF tlllage permit, the people provided
with sharp sticks or hoes for turning
up the ground, proceed to collect and
destroy locust eggs. If the eggs are
deposited in the fields or sandy plains
where the ploughs and harrows can
pass, the latter are made use of. The
egg-tubes are poured into sacks and
measured, the authorities paying a
bounty OF ten cents for every pint col
lected: If, after hot summer the fall
and winter are equable, the search is
renewed in the spring. After the
Young locusts appear in the spring
parties with fiat wooden shovels
are detailed to surround the plain
where the broods appear, destroying
them and burning the residue. In ad-
dition, rollers made of timber and fixed
on iron or wooden axles, and drawn by
horses or oxen, are sent from point to
point, wherever any mass OF insects
have escaped the above precautions.-
Besides the rollers, as the insects &C
quire the use Of their wings, the use
of bags is found advantageous
mencing the patrol of the fields at day.
light and continuing until the morning
dew is dried up. After the swar1ns
commence their flights, every planta-
ton is as f;ar. as possible protected by
smudges in the manner described above
by Locher.

Resolved, That our confidence and
love for our pastor, so far from being
diminished are heightened and deepen
eddy the unmerited sufferings which
he has so long borne, and we welcome
him with sympathy more tender and
trust more unbounded than ever felt
before to his labors among us-t0 our
church, our families, our homes and
our hearts.
During the reading of the report fire.
quent Interruptions were caused by the
applause which followed the reading of
certain passages sustaining MIR. Beech
er, and outbursts of laughter were
drawn out by any allusion to mutual
friend" Moulton and his participation
in the matter. The concluding portion
of the report, summing up the result,
was received with the waving of hand
kerchiefs, hats, and whatever else came
handy, and the applause which greeted
the ending was almost deafening.
After the reading the report Moul-
ton went forward and took a seat on
the platform. During some remarks
by Mr.. Raymond, in which he said that
Moulton had tried to poison the minds
of men against Beecher, Moulton rose
and said twice: YOU'RE a liar, sir -
This produced intense excitement
Men and women mounted the seats and
cried put him out - ''Shame!'' etc.,
mingled with prolonged hissing.-
Moulton dared the meeting to put him
out. Two policemen appeared and
Moulton resumed his seat. MI. Ray
mond continued reviewing the charac-
ter and conduct of Tilton and NIoulton
in severe terms. The report of the
committee was received and the resolu-
ton adopted by a standing vote amid
the waving of hats and handkerchiefs.
When the nays were called for Moul-
ton alone voted III the negative. At
the conclusion Moulton passed out
amid demonstrations which led the po-
lice to hustle him into a carriage and
drive rapidly away. Moulton is out in
card threatening to print more let
ters. But the verdict Of Plymouth
Church is the verdict of the Christian
world, and lenceforth there is only
honor and love for Beecher and lasting
contemp: and infamy for Tilton and
Moulton.

THE CHRISTOPHER SITLA TON.

We give elsewhere an extract from a
paper ON the Grasshopper prepared by
the U. S. Consul at Winnepeg. 1t
seems that the locusts have deposited
their eggs in Manitoba as they have
done this year in the region bordering
on the Minnesota river. We have not
heard of any eggs having been deposit
tied in the counties south and south
west of Watonwan, 50 that next year
this section will escape the necessity of
feeding the young hoppers for six or
eight weeks as we had to do this year.
But we may look for visit or two
from the swarms which will hatch out
north of US, and with the knowledge
we now have, and our experience in
fighting them this year, we ought toes
cape next year with little comparative
damage. This year, with our hatch to
feed for nearly two months, and with
three or four invasions from foreign
grasshoppers, we have still nearly half Il
crop left. Next year with only the in
vaders to meet, and with a.vigorous
smudging, roping, ETC., we can rest as
sured of saving most of the crop.
This seems to have been general
grasshopper year. They were OH the
move from Manitoba to Texas and, we
believe, also in South America and
it is supposed that some Of the inva-
ders even this far north were Matched
South of North America. It is not
probable that there will be another
such general movement for twenty
years to come. We are north of the
ordinary grasshopper country, and the
name of the ''grasshopper region" is
no more appropriate as applied to us
than the name Of the ''water-spout re-
gion'' would be appropriate if applied
to Pittsburg. A civilized milan who
passed through here a few days ago,
and who has known this country from
boyhood, said to one OF our farmers
that this was mot the grasshopper
country.'' They have not been here
before in twenty years.
Mr.. Taylor, in concluding his paper,
sums up with substantially tile follow
ing points:
l. If the grasshoppers had not ta-
ken half the crops, Manitoba would
have smothered in it's own fat-and as
half the crop left is in consequence of
the diminished production worth as
much as the whole crop would have been,
the loss is not 50 severe after all.
9. Where fields were ploughed in the
fall, two weeks important time was
gained in the spring, and hence the
loss by the hoppers was at least one
fourth less than on the spring ploughed
lands.
3. lie hopes that the ova of the
ichncumon fly has been deposited
with and will eat up the grasshoppel
eggs; if not the eggs must be disturb
ed and trampled out this fall.
4. For this purpose there is nothing
like deep blowing.
5. The pea is unpalatable food for the
grasshopper, and so he recommends that
''every field of wheat, barley and oats
he surrounded by a margin, say one
hundred feet wide, of the field pea.''
6. Burn over the prairies in the spring
7. Ample provision for smudges fol
use when the adult grasshoppers begin
to fly.
8. Every parish club to- organize fol
associated effort against the pest.
8. For every acre heretofore sown,
plough and~0W two acres in 1875.

Report Of the Investigating Committee

Threats from Moulton.
On Friday night, August 2Sth, the
Plymouth Church stigating Com
mittec, read their report at the church
meeting. The report covers the whole
ground, dwelling upon every essential
point in the case, and concludes with
the following complete vindication of
Mr.. Bcechcr.
First. We find from the evidence
that Rev. Henry Ward Beecler did not
commit adultery wit l Mrs. Elizabeth
Il. Tilton, either at the time or times,
or place Or I laces set forth in the third
and fourth subdivisions of MI. Til
tons statement, nor at any other time
or place whatever.
Second. We find from the evidence
that MIR. Beecher has never committed
any unchaste or improper act with Mrs.
Tilton, nor made any unchaste OF i'm
proper remark, proffer or solicitation to
her, of any kind whatever.
Third. If this were question of
errors Of Judgment on the part of Mr..
Beecller, it would be easy to criuicise,
especially in the light of recent events.
LII such criticism, we are sure no man
would join more sincerely than Mr..
Beecher himself.
Fourth. We see nothing whatever
in the evidence that should impair the
perfect confidence Of Plymouth church,
or the world, in the Christian integrity
of Henry Ward Beecher. And now let
the peace of God, that passeth all I'M
derstanding, rest and abide with Plym-
outh church, and the beloved and emf
nent pastor, so much and so long afflic-
ted.
