With love that was great and deep and true.

The WORLDS Consumption o.
American Petroleum.

While the Oil Region Is suffering from
an unusual depression, II may be some
consolation to know that the heaviest
item Of American manufacture exported
Is that OF our refined pet roleum, ltfOots
up to the enormous figure OF S3J 100000
annually. No other manufactured article
even approximateS this value, the next
highest being lard, which Is $20,OO0000
Of exported value. For the year ending
June Both. 1874, the export Of refined oils
was 274,000,0 900 gallons, Of an aggregate
value Of S37, 56l Biz, and the residuum and
crude exported In the same year swelled
the amount to about S41,000,0OO. II
would be reasonable to suppose that the
home consumption Of 40 useful an article
would be equal to, II not far exceed, the
amount exported. This, however, Is far
from being the case. The consumption Of
refined oil in thiS country Ia not nearly
what Il il In Europe. Our TRANSATLANTIC
consumers pay more for the article, and
use four times the quantity. All the best
Conttivences for burning kero-
sene IN lamps have been inven-
ted In this country, and the
mode Of procuring a brilliant and uhsur-
passed light has been reduced 10 the most
perfect economy and simplicity, and yet
foreign countries have adopted our inven-
ton and our oil TO very much greater
extent than we have ourselves. The
causeiOf this Ia simply that legislation In
foreign countries has done there what
legislation In this country has failed TO do
here, and perfectly safe article has been
secured TO our foreign consumers, while
we have been flooded with unsafe oil.
Over sixty different nations, including
Japan, now burn our refined oil, and the
extremely small price has given snch an
impetus to la adoption "a an illminator

Smut in Grain.

Smut is caused by \ parasitic fungus long
known to botanists by the name of UstitagO
Maids; and it has frequently been described
and figured in botanical works. Its develop
ment or growth is also pretty well understood.
The fungus grows from very minute spores,
which are produced by millions; but exactly
as to how these spores react and infest the
growing corn, can find nowhere any definite
information, nor have seen any data relative
to preventives. We are left here to surmise,
and analogies.
Smut in wheat is produced by similar
fungus, similar in its botanical character, in
its results, and this wheat-smut fungus is
much better known. 1t is proved that this
gains access to the plant through the seed
The spores are sticky and adhere to the sound
grain at harvest or threshing, and are sowr

grows, the fungus develops with it in due
time, ripening its spores at harvest. Tit
spores may be killed and the crop saved by
soaking the seed wheat in strong brine, or il

Vine Culture and Wine Making

Mr.. Alfred Speer, of Passaic, n. j.,
so long and favorably known as the
wine man of New Jersey, expects a
larger yield of grapes this year than
usual, and has reduced the price OF his
four years old port so as to bring it with
in the reach of the poorer families who
need pure and rich wine for medi-
cinal purposes. Mr.. Speer's mode of
fermenting and keeping his wine diff
fers from the usual methods. This is
the reason why it is so much superior
in quality, but it requires four years
management and changing of temper
ature in order to make such perfect
fine wine az it is; the knowledge of
changing TO various temperatures at
different times, and at the right time,
is where he has the advantage of get
ting so rich wine without the use of
liquor. Large quantities of Speer's
Port Grape wine have been ordered to
South America, and by Europeans
Physicians recommend it as superior to
most of the European wines. 1t is
deal in largely by druggists.-[ Daily

THE Catholic Universe (ClevelanG pays its
compliments to the Cleveland Herald in the
following style:
The Herald is red-hot these days. Bishop
Gilmour's Lenten Pastoral is now its theme.
1t would fight in circle, and like the slain
hell-hound, rise again to the chase. But really
we fail to see the point it would make. The
Bishops Pastoral has been well and widely
discussed. 1t contains nothing that cannot be
sustained by Holy Scripture and common
sense.
In order to show what the Universe may
consider common sense, the Herald produces
the following elegant extracts from the
Bishops Pastoral:
We must learn that we are Catholics first
and citizens next. Catholicity does not bring
us in conflict with the State, yet it teaches
that God is above man, and the Church above
| the State Nor must we forget
that the public schools are organized and man.
aged for, and in, the interests of Protestant
ism. If parents, either through contempt for
the priests or disregard for the laws of the
Church, or for trifling and insufficient reasons,
refuse to send their children to Catholic
school, then in such cases, but in such cases
only, we authorize confessors to refuse the
sacraments to such parents We
are panied to note in some places that laymen
| failed tollnow their duty and the rights of the
priests There is false notion among some
of our people; they assume powers which
they have not, and undertake to do what they

were never appointed for. Hereafter there
are and will be no trustees. The Bishop is
the only trustee in the diocese, and in his
name all property is held. Under no circum-
stances will we allow laymen to hold church
property or in any way to control it. .
Priest and Catholic are inseparable; the one
contains and ever accompanies the other. So
if societies claim to be Catholic, or wish to
enjoy the privileges usually accorded to Ca
tholic societies; if they will enter the Church
as societies, wearing their regalia and claim
ing honors and attention, they must do as Ca
tholic societies do; put priest at their head.
If they ignore the priest they need not wonder
if he ignors them. :.
The following are the conditions on which
any society within the diocese will be permit
ted to enter any church with its regalia on:
1. Their constitution must be approved
either by the Bishop or priest.
?. Each society shall place priest at its
head as spiritual director, and receive from
him reasonable direction.
1t is a grievous sin to get married out of the
Church, and often such marriages are null and
void in the eyes of the Church.

CHARLIE ROSS.

The theory of the kidnapping of
Charlie Ross implicated three conspi-
rators: Douglass and Mosher, both Of
whom were disposed of summarily
with sh0t-guns in the hands of some
young men named Van Brunt, who
interrupted them in the popular New
York offense of burglary. The third
conspirator, Westervelt, is now on tri-
al in Philadelphia. The evidence so
far shows that an intimacy existed be-
tween the prisoner and Douglass and
Mosher; that the letters to Mr.. Ross in
regard to the terms of surrender are in
his handwriting, and that he Was in
communication with the other two af-
ter the kidnapping. No crime has ev-
er excited more public interest and
awakened such an anxiety for a dis
covery of the perpetrators. There new
er was better opportunity afforded all
ambitious young detective to cover
himself with glory.
The New York Herald publishes
what purports to be an interview be-
MOsher, widow of VIM. Mosher, one
of the burglars killed last winter at
Bay Ridge, Long Island, and the uni
versally acknowledged abductor of
Charlie Ross. Mrs. MOsher denied ev-
er having seen the missing boy, but in
reply to direct inquiry as to whether
the boy was living or dead, she replied:
81 am sure he is living, and will turn
up before long. lam as sure that he is
living as I am that breathe. l would
not believe him dead unless L should
see his dead body before me-" She
was mother and knew the feelings of
Mrs. Ross, and if she knew where the
boy was she would make it known. In
reply to the inquiry why she was so
positive the boy was alive, she said:
II know he is. My husband would
not harm hair OF his head Quickly
recovering herself and very nervous)-
II mean if he had anything to do
with it." Mrs. Mosher is also sister to
WeStervelt, now on trial in Philadel-
phia. In the trial of Watervelt, the
following important testimony, pro-
duced great sensation:

Westervelt, as that man. The child
was very fair, with dark eyes, light,
soft curly hair, about four years of age.
The child had on a brown linen suit.
Over the linen suit was drawn a blue
cotton sack. He had no hat on. The
man never spoke to the child but once.
The child cried. He turned to it and
said, Hush, hush.' The child seemed
frightened at him, and screamed, and
the man said, Go see mama, go see
mama The child stopped screaming
then, and Westervelt took crack
ers from his pocket and gave it some.
The child ate the crackers and was quiz
ct. When we came to North Fourth
