THE RECENT ERUPTION IN ICELAND.
From the Times)

On the 10th July e meeting Of the Com.
mittee formed to take into consideration how
best to afford aid to the sufferers from the
recent eruption in Iceland, was held at the
Mansion house; the Lord Mayor presiding.
There were present Alderman Sir Thomas
Dakin, the Rev. Francis Holland, DR.. John
Rae, Mr.. w. Morris, Mr.. Eirikr Magnusson.
and Mr.. Vine, private Secretary to the Lord
Mayor. AT the suggestion of the Lord Mayor
Mr.. MagnusSOn gave q concise account Of the
chief features of the distress and the cause OF
It. On Easter Monday, after sporadic erup-
lions had been for some time previously mani.
testing themselves about the region of the
mountains southeast of the Cape Of Myvaten,
q terrific explosion occurred near the mountain
group called Dyngjufj0ll, which burst into the
air with such masses Of graduated scoria and
volcanic ashes as covered in their fall a trian-
gle of the country east of the locality of the
eruption etwee Jokuldal and Stodvarfiord,
to the extent Of about 5000 square miles, with
aslayer of ashes and stone from Ii to s inches
In thickness. Such had been the force Of the
explosion that the finer ashes had not done
falling till they reached the snoW-clad noun
tains of Norway on the following Tuesday
morning. The population Immediately affected
amounted to 5000 people, and the live stock
to 10000 sheep, about 1000 cattle, and a
similar number of ponies. BY the fact Of this
locality being the most prosperous in Iceland,
and, falling, therefore, with all the more over
Whelming weight upon the neighbouring dis.
tricts, the natural and inevitable consequences
would be rapidly spreading famine at the end
ofsnmmer, unless timely help were forthcom.
Ing. This help must com from abroad, as
Iceland had no resources for self-help of the
magnitude which the present calamity demand

BY Denmark, where the King was first to start
areiisf subscription as early as the latter part
ofApri4' In the course of May Norway had
followed the example Of Denmark, and from
those countries more than $500 had already
been sent to Iceland. Lastly, a central COM
Ml|ttes, o.. which the, Parliamentary leader,
Mr. Slgurdsson was the chairman, had been
established at sReykjavik for the purpose OF
aasviating the great, distress of the people
iqt East Firths.' AT the close of yesterdays
meeting the secretary, Mr.. Vine, announced

ADVANTAGES OF CHEMICAL
ANALYSIS.

Ii is shown by the chemical analysis of crop
plants that the mineral, |inoombu8tible or ash
constituents Of plants consist principally Of
potash, soda, magnesia, oxide of iron, silica,
phoSphorio acid, s%uIphurio acid, muriatio acid
and carbonic acid. These substances are not
met with in a free state in the ashes of plants,
but are combined with salts. The alkaline
salts, salts of potash and soda are soluble in
water. The earthly compounds, salts of lime
and phosphate Of lime, are soluble in diluted
muriatic or sulphurio acid. Chemical analysis
shows that the plant is largely made up of the
organic constituents. Dry corn fodder con-
tains fourteen parts of water, eighty two Of
organic matter and four of ash. The grain
contains l4.4 water, 1875 of organic matter and
al ash.

LANDRY BAILLIO, in the 65th year Of
his age.
The deceased was native of Rapides,

In the death Of Isaac M. Singer
announced from London, strange
life closed. The deceased had g
checkered history. Of his earlier
life We know little beyond the fact
that he was young man of bright
talents and mental promise, with a
special tendency to development in
mechanical arts. When about thir-
ty-six years of age Gin 1916 under
the name of /. S. Merritt, (substitu-
ting his middle for his last name, he
appeared in Ohio as the proprietor of
a "Great Moral Drama" designed to
illustrate the vice of drunkenness
and enforce the principles Of total
abstinence. The success of the en-
terprise seems not to have met his
expectations, for in a short time he
found himself at Fredericksburg,
Wayne county, bankrupt and com
PEELED to suspend operations and sell
out his concern. geIi !
Thus situated, he set about look
ing for other business. Having some
knowledge of wood type manufacture,
he soon found in Mr.. Day {afterward
well known to the printers of Ohio, }
partner for the prosecution of that
business in Fredericksburg, under
the firm name of Day & Merritt. A
limited establishment was impro-
vised, with tools and machinery dri-
ven by horsepower. The next spring
Mr.. 'Merritt" started out with one.
horse wagon loaded with types, which
he sold chiefly to country printers in
Northern Ohio. Encouraged by the
results Of this trip, the firm went on
and manufactured SO literally that
the next spring Mr.. Merritt setout
with a double team and larger load.
The results Of that trip was not
known for many years, for the ped.
ding partner failed to return to make
a report, having decamped with load,
team and the aYails the trip. The
type business was continued for many
years at Fredericksburg, and subse-
quently at Cincinnati by Mr.. Day,
and a brother, but "Merritt" return
ed no more" Subsequently, as al
ready indicated, he turned up under
his proper name, Isaac NE. Singer,
the sewing machine patentee, in
which character he has long been
known to the world. TO what ex-
tent he was the real inventor of the
machine bearing his name is dispu-
ted, it having been alleged that it
was chiefly the work of other brains,
But he became the patentee, and as
such secured an enormous income,
which for many years past has con-
tributed literally to. the qualification
Of his tastes and desires, most of his
time of late being spent in Europe
His life was success in respect to
oecuniary gain and notoriety; but in
other respects, which most men re-
gard as higher attainments of human
he was not much known,
md his record can hardly be held
Up for the emulation Of young men.

bad. What is now wanted is to keep
Ohio in line against the iniquitous and
demoralizing system which has impe-
rilled free government, a free press,
and free speech, brought bankruptcy
on the land, aud struck down States as
if they were satrapies. Let the truth
not be disguised. Every vote cast
for the Republican party is vote
against reform and retrenchment,
against honesty and purity, and
against return to those first princi
pies by which alone the country can
be rescued from the dangers that be-
set it. 1s
A victory in Ohio for the Repub-
lican party would be heralded over
the Union as the triumph of Grant
ism, vote of confidence in the Adj
ministration, an approval of all it's
excuses and rascalities, and as set
back to the popular demand for
change. The effect of it would be
little short of calamity, which eve

no other medicine can this result be had.
