MINOR TOPICS.

THE custom of eating fish on Fridays
and Lent is derived from the old Pagan
notion that fish were sacred to Aphrodite,
the foamborn goddess, and to the Roman
Venus. Hence the custom grew of eat
ing fish on Friday. the day of Frega, and
in spring, the season sacred to the goddess
of love.

Extensive Farming.

The great farmer of the world, DR..
Hugh J. Glenn, of Jacinto, Colusa
county, California, has raised and har-
vested the past season on his own farm
six hundred thousand bushels of wheat.
This would load eighteen one-thOusand-
ton ships, or three hundred canal boats.
All this wheat he has now in his ware
houses, ready for shipment when the
water in the Sacramento river rises SUI
ficiently. The doctor pays ninety thou
sand dollars freight to put his wheat in
the San Francisco market. The doctor
is wonder to the agricultural world and
to himself. He runs ninety gang-plows
and whole county's population in the
harvest field, with dozen thrashers.
His farming is not confined to wheat
alone. He markets one hundred thou
sand dollars worth of stock each year.
DR.. Glenn is a practical farmer, and
manages all his immense business him

AHAIR-RAIsING case of fsomnambulism
occurred at Spring Lake, Michigan, on
recent night, the victim being a young
man named EobbiD, son of David Pat
terson, ESD, who. at about midnight,
was discovered by neighbor climbing
the lightning-rod on his fathers house.
He climbed to the TOP roof, explored the
whole of the top of the building, which,
being Gothic style, was very uneven,
and returned to his bed in the second
story, climbing through the window
without a misstep. In the morning be
remembered nothing of the circumstance

he must Just begin and take his tOddy

not do as he had taken the pledge in
presence of the presbytery. The doctor
replied that he might get bottle or two

would know anything about it.

keeper is worse than all the presbytery

However, it was arranged that the doctor

that the minister was TO make up the

that he always got for shaving purposes
in the morning. The result was, the
minister got speedily well, and one day,
on going out, the doctor said to the
minister's housekeeper, Well, Margaret,
your Minister is quite himself again.

for California in search of gold. The
vessel they sailed in has never been heard

attention was called to an account in an
English paper of the discovery of an un-

of persons found there was the name of

that the old family ties were probably

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. the recent failures
in England, it is said that there is no
panic; and the feeling excited by the
failures has quieted them. 1t seems that
the failures did not produce any appre-
ciable effect upon the money market. In
proof of this, it is asserted that never
during its existence of one hundred and
eighty years has the Bank of England
held so much specie as it holds to-day.
The rate of discount is three per cent,
and bids fair to fall to two before many
weeks.
