Icg.-In consequence of the mild winter
the ice crop of the United States is said to be
smaller than for many years past, and con-
sumers will have to pay much higher
price than they paid last season. Our city
dealers in northern ice have contracted for
fun supplies, but at figures more than
double the price paid last year.

STEAMINd TO TIA SOURCE OF THE
NILE In an article on "rhe Sources
of the Nile" the Philadelphia Press
suggests that small steamer be placed
on the lakes to make q survey of their
shores and discovery of the email
streams flowing into them. In this
way it hopes to solve the riddle of
centuries-the riddle which the great
traveller Bruce thought he had solved
in finding the head of the Blue Nile,
and which Burton, Speke. Grant and
Baker were equally suiisfiei they i,,i
unravelled in the discovery OF the
Nyanza Lakes-the mighty riddle that
was too powerful for the well-knit
Scottish frame of the devoted Living
stone. in the solution of which he
sacrificed his valuable life. The length
OF the Nile, measuring along its
course and taking the White Nile for
the main river, is $500 miles Now
the lakes near its source have supplies
from the Mountains OF the Moon.
which are situated in the rainy zone.
Let these lakes be thoroughly ex-
plored, AS our Philadelphia oontempo-
rory suggests, and the true source of
the great mysterious river will be
found and physical problem of thou.
sands OF years will be inevitably
solved. Science and the practical in
terests of humanity demand that dis
covery be pushed to it's ultimate
speedily in this direction. It is worth
more to discover the nource of the old
Egyptian river than to make the
erandesi discovery in the Arctic RS.
glons. Unimpeded commerce with
Central Africa is thing to be desired
by all, while the determination of the
exact situation of the North Pole is a
matter for men of science only. 1t
would be immortal honor to the gene
rous and wise Khedive of Egypt If he
would ut out an expedition to explore
the Nyanza lakes and place it under
the command Of some such gallant
leader as Gen. r. Z. CoIston, of his
service. who is about to embark on a
similar command to barbour.

never flag in their determination to
rid the country OF unworthy public
servants. It will be blessing to tho
North, as we'll as to the South, that our
evils have at last been understood.
