Hamilton pattern, and worth 90 cents apiece, might
furnish the "fllppant and fluffy mind OF the Oih-
cinnati Silver Apostle with some new views OF the
Currency question.
The opening of the Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph
Line to New w-Orleans marks the rapid progress OF
n compact and admirably managed organlzation'
which already reaches all the principal points
for telegraphic business at the North, ana
promises soon to cover the South with an
equally efficient service. Every forward step
taken by this healthy and aggressive young
COMPANY is a cause for special congratuaton to the
business public. 1t has for the first time IN TINS
country made telegraphing really and continuously
cheap. The service it has rendered. especially 10
the press deserves a less grudging recognition than
il has hitherto received. The Western Union has
uniformly refused to reduce rates except wheh
driven to il. Every reduction is due solely TO the
enterprise of the Atlantic and Pacific. III people
want low rates, they ought to maintain the Com
pany that secures them. Its managers yesterday de-
MED authortatively the malicious stories about It's
intending to raise rates. Its steady policy tor years
has been to reduce and it seems to have proSpered
on it.

Two important decisions are reported from

take measures for improving navigable rivers,

Virginia the right to prohibit the citizens Of

Investigations into the frauds on the revenue

coloring sugars promise to elicit more than
the usual interest that attaches to Government
suits involving the fair fame of our merchants.
The testimony is likely to include analyses
from chemical experts, ald il these are called
i'll question, there will be lively work among
the gentlemen who manipulate solutions and
test-tubes. The assertion on the part OF the
Government is, first, that imported sugars are
colored so as to be graded as at less
than their real value, and hence to
pay less tban their appropriate duty.
70 this the reply has been that the darkened
color was due 10 caramel or burnt sugar, and
it was an open question whether such coloring
did not real, rs well as apparently reduce

The death from hydrophobia of Martin
LoIenz, boy less than five years old, is one
of the few instances Of the kind in which fear
and nervousness can scarcely have taken much
part. But even though the nOn-beheyers should
be compelled 10 admit that the malady IS in
some instances real, tho fact win remain thlt
the fear of hydrophobia is moro frequently
fatal than the disease. The publicity given to
hydrophobia cases makes them seem to be fire.

found raror than deaths by lightning.

The present strikes and riots are an
other instance of these admirable fea-
lures of the American national charac-
ter. A hundred thousand closely allied
men become at a moment masters of all
the communications of the continent,
and have property to the value of two
thousand millions at their mercy.
What would they not have done in
Europe under similar circumstances?
With the facilities these men had to
arm themselves. one-tifth of their num-
Der would have been enough in any
European country to march on the
capital, upset the government, and es-
tablish general chaos. The men who
started the great French revolution,
who beheaded kings and mobiles, redis-
tributed property all over the country,
and became the terror Of the whole
world, counted their ranks by the hun
dred, not the thousand Here the rising
of a hundred thousand men results in a
dozen or two killed. few buildings
burned, and a slight impeachment to
business for a day or two. Why, the
beer riot of Frankfort few years ago,
or an Anglo-Irish riot was never settled
cheaper, And when the thing is over,
there is no court-martiailng, no shooting,
hanging, Or banishing people. In a few
days there will probably not be even
any ill-feeling between the two opposite
camps. If this is not wonderful, I don't
know what is.-Nee0 York SIN.

The Locomotive Bug.

There is in captivity under glass
tumbler at Price & Reads store new
kind Of bug which, on account Of the
peculiar noise it emits, has been named
the " locomotive bug" Its back is COW
cred with a horny shield, grayish in
color. By a constant up and down
movement of this shield air is expelled
from the space between it and the in
sect's back, which creates a sound SINH
lar to the putting of locomotive. So
strong are the putfs of air thus expelled
that they will blow small bits of paper
the distance of an inch. The insects
head is fitted with two horns placed and
shaped somewhat like the horns of a
Texas steer. These horns are brown
in color, and are capable of contraction
and distension at the will of the insect.
All who have examined this bug say
they never before saw anything like it,
and no etomologist has been found in
town who is able to correctly classify
the creature 1t is evidently a young
bug, and if its mother can be found it
is possible that she may be utilized as
an air-compressor in the mines. Price
is nurturing this one tenderly, in the
hope that it will at least grow up to USE
fulness as a fan for ventilating mines

Destruction of Forests.

The destruction of forests is one of
the evils against which we have to con-
tend in the United States and to prevent
which some remedy must be sought in
the future The prevention Of the loss
would be worth more than the remedy,
and to this the attention of most gov
ernments is directed. Some idea of the
extent of the devastations of forests
perpetrated on our continent may be
formed from the quantity Of timber
supplied annually by Canada and the
United States. 1t appears that the
product of the Northwest for one year
is two thousand six hundred million
feet, enough to girdle the globe twenty
times over with boards foot wide, all
drawn from the lower peninsula. The
result of this extensive destruction Is
that mills are dropping out here and
there, that all mills have reached the
limit of production, that in five years
places which are now of considerable
value will have no further pretensions
to Importance as numbering districts,
that IN the last three years more than
one-fourth of the estimated standing
pine of the lower peninsula of Michi-
