The tramp nuisance has developed
into alarming proportions in the West.
Bands of over 200 go together. They
board railway trains, refuse to pay fares
or get off, and in one case threatened
to tie the engineer and run the train
themselves if he refused to haul them.
A few days since they threw an express
train ON the Alton and Chicago road off
the track, and they boarded Rockford
train and threatened violence If they
were not carried. Three hundred took
possession of an Iowa train, which was
at their mercy while they remained on
board, and over 500 arrived in Daven-
port in twenty-four hours. The author
tiles of Rock Island called out 100 war
veterans to protect the city from the
of the tramps that were
pouring into it from all quarters. The
country is full of them. They go in
bands, demand work which they do not
want, and food and clothes and money
when it is refused, commit depredations
on property, and in some cases have re-
sorted to acts of violence. People are
and the authorities are resort
ing to energetic measures to get rid of
what threatens to be a worse pest than
the grasshoppers.

StupendOus Pull-BackS.

Last Tuesday over Is, 600 persons were
assembled at Lords to witness a game
of cricket, the annual match between
Oxford and Cambridge, in which Oxford
came very decidedly out of.the little end
of the horn. / doubt whether the
ladies took much interest in the game,
hut they must have found enough to
admire in each others ''pull-back" dress,
es, which are certainly calculated to
startle the unregenerate male mind.
Some of these dresses are now pulled
back to that degree that sitting down
in them must be simply impossible. AS
the English woman is seldom constructed
on very slight or fragile scale, the
effect of costume which reveals the
outlines of the whole figure is calculated
to considerably astonish weak nerves. 1
saw couple of young girls coming out
of the Royal Academy to-day, and at
first I really thought that brace of
statues had been endowed with motion,
and had walked down from their pedes-
tails into the street. For the dresses
were of very light and gauzy material,
and the pull back was simply stupendous,
and-but perhaps / had better not enter
any further into the subject, for some
people are rather particular, and they
might not like it. 1 may go so far as to
say that the streets of London, or the
fashionable evening parties, seldom pre-
scented more to interest the curious eye
than they do at present. L should be
afraid to describe an evening dress saw
the other night; you might say that my
letters had been condemned as improper
and that you had lost several subscribers
in consequence. If the next change in
fashion is not in n totally-different di-
rection, artists will not find it necessary
to go to the statuary in the British Mu-
scum, or elsewhere, to study the human
form divine. World.

Dom PedrO,s Impressions.

The Philadelphia correspondent of the
New York Times writes "The very
hardest of all the workers at the Exhibi-
ton was Dom Pedro, and he has left.
Never did highly bred and accom-
phshed gentleman see any exhibition
more fully or more at his ease. / rather
take up the cudgels for the great Ameri-
can public, as far as it relatesto their con-
duct in regard to the Brazilian Emperor.
/ have Glanced to come across Dom Pc
dro some twenty times at the big show,
and though / may have seen people in
his immediate neighborhood, / never
noticed anything like crowding, nor an
attempt to get in his way. If at any flu
ture exhibitions in England or France
His Imperial Highness gets along as well
/ shall be surprised. One of his aids
fully indorses my views, as he said to
me. My imperial master will always re-
member the delicate attention paid him
by the American crowd. Iii the best
hammered assemblage of people we have
ever seen out OF Brazil. 1t is nothing
vulgar nor intrusive in its composition I;
all the men are gentlemen, and the
women-why they are angels Does
not the Emperor, asked, prompted by
a feeling of peculiar solicitude for men
who have to see men and write them up
in temperature of 81 degrees, does
not the Emperor work his secretaries
quite hard2' mo, not at all. The notes
His Highness has taken are models of
brevity. Perhaps some day later some
of us will have to transcribe them from
his dictation, but it is quite as likely
that my master will write them up at sea
during our voyage to Europe, or on his
return. The trouble we have is to pre-
vent him working too hard. His notes
are all In shorthand. >"

Power of Cooperation in Animals.

An energetic scientific gentleman in
England recently gave lecture to a
provincial audience on the power of Co
operation in animals. He took as his
examples the bee, the beaver, and the
buffalo. His audience was much
pleased, and the elderly country clergy
man with whom he was staying seemed
especially delighted. But it is not easy
to realize to the pind the horror which
came into the breast of the scientific
gentleman when, sitting in the country
church on the following Sunday to hear
a sermon from his host, he heard that
coed man illustrate the wonderful works
of Providence by representing the bee,
the beaver, and the buffalo as all three
working together in some foreign land
in harmonious and systematic combina-
ton.

THE Esterly reaper, of Whitewater,
Wis, with reel ard one arm-rake working in a
quarter circle, is the only machine that
lays the bundle perfectly even. Equal to any
in all other respects, it exceis all other reapers
in this. EsTERLY & Sons HARvEsTERs dispense
with all this machinery, and revolving and
vibrating rake strikes the butts of the cut grain
and carries it up and on to transverse table
where it is pushed by reversible rake to the
binders. II the grain is light two bundles need
make but one. Both rakes are driven by a
small spur wheel ON the main axle of the driv-
ing wheel, working in spur gear, in connec-
ton with cam. rack and pinion. The whole
machine is simple, operates perfectly and COM
mends itself to all visitors. 1r f+l ffu

The l.ake superior Disaster.

3 An eyewitness of the disaster to the
steamer st. Clair says the flames spread
SO RAPIDLY that the engineers were driven
from their post before the hose could be
attached. The flames passed up through
the roof of the cabin almost instantly,
enyeloping all but one of the small
boats. The one which was launched was
a large yawl. A rush was made for 1T
the moment il touched the water, and
as natural consequence it was capsized.
There was a heavy sea running ut the
time, and it was with difficulty the yawl
was righted, only to be- capsized lmme-
diately by the terror stricken people.
The boat was righted and capsized SIX
times before it was finally kept right
side up, and bailed out by the sailors,
who used their hats with which to bail.
When the yawl drifted away from the
burning steamer, the occupants, four IN
number, ripped out the seats to use as
paddles, and eruised about in hopes of
rescuing more of the unfortunate pas
sengers. Only two were picked up.
They were floating on hatch, and one
of them was dead. The boat came east
ward and shoreward until they landed
west of the ship canal, at the huts Of
some fishermen.
AS soon as the fire was discovered
most of the passengers put on life-pre-
servers, but they availed them nothing in
the extremely-cold water, except to float
the dead until they were picked up by
the tug.
The st. Clair had on board sixteen
and a crew of fifteen TWen-
ty-six of them persisted.

The Greatest of All Canal Schemes.

French engineering skill having Sic
cessfully constructed the Suez canal, it
now proposes to connect the Atlantic
with the Mediterranean by an immense
waterway through the heart of France.
This canal is to have width of 1000
feet at top, with depth Of water of &c
feet, and the estimated cost of the work
is $4,000, 100000, or $4,000, 900, 900.
The bold engineer who has projected
this gigantic work is Mr.. Manner, of
Paris, and so extraordinary are his plans

A New and Destructive Tree Worm.

All through the extensive cedar for
ests in Marshall, north of the river,
and in the extensive belt of cedars in
the northeast portion of Maury county;
untold millions of kind of worm, in
cased in cocoon or web, have attached
themselves to the cedar trees-in many
thousands apparently to the tree. The
trees appear to be thickly covered with
these destructive insects. In sections
containing many hundred acres of the
finest red cedar in the State--the timber
attacked-much of it is already killed,
and nearly all that the pests are on APP
pears to be in dying condition grave
fears are expressed by many that they
will, in the future, almost destroy the
cedar timber as they multiply. They
seem to be Indigenous to the cedar,
having as yet molested no forest tree
but 1t. The young apples in the orch
ards near the affected forest have been
attacked, the fly having apparently laid
the eggs on the bloom or apple. Thou
sands of little oblong cocoons may now
be seen sticking to the young apples !;
withint he ball or cocoon is small black
looking worm. The apples that they
have been on are knotty and SCARED,
and stunted in growth, and cannot make
good apples. The little worm in his
silken web seems to suck the apple. As
there are now many acres of timber that
have been already killed by them, some
one skilled in entomology would confer
a favor by explaining what they are

Condolences or the Presidential Cam.



II does not seem long ago that Gen.
Fremont was running for President, as
the special favorite of Young America.
The present Republican candidate, Gov.
Hayes, halls from the town of Fremont,
Ohio, so named in honor OF Gen. Ere
mont. Towns in the West appear to
grow big enough to have candidate for
President in very short time.
The Republican candidate for Presi-
dent, Gen. Hayes, and-the present Presi.
dent. Gen. Grant, are both natives OF
the same State, Ohio.
The last two Presidents, Mr.. Lincoln
and Gen. Grant, both hailed from the
same State, Illinois, at the time OF their
election; and we came near having
third Republican candidate, Mr.. Wash
burne, not only from the same State
with Gen. Grant, but from the same
town, Galena.
Mr.. Conkling, leading Republican
candidate for the nomination, and Mr..
Seymour, leading Democratic candl-
date but for his own peremptory deciln-
alton, are both residents OF Utica, N. L.,
and are brothers-in-law.
The four latest Democratic nominees,
Mcclellan, Seymour, Greeley and Ill
den, have all hailed from New York.
In early times we had three successive
residents-Jefferson, Madison, and
Monroe-from the same State, Virginia,
from which another President, WASH
ington, had previously been taken.
OF the first six Presidents, four were
from Virginia, and two-the Adamses,
father and son-from Massachusetts.
The old and great State OF New York
has never had but one President-Mar-
tin Van Buren-and that one only for
single term. We mean only one Presl-
dent elected to the office; for, although
Fillmore served as President, he was
only elected Vice President.
Seven Washington, JEFF
ferson, Madison, Monroe, Harrison,
Tyler, and Taylor-were natives of Vir-
ginia.
Tennessee has given us three Presi-
dents, two of them Andrew Us. though
one of these, Andrew Jackson, was ma
tive of North Carolina.
People differ entirely In opinion as to
which State the next President will haul
from; but we venture to predict it will
be either from Ohio or New York
