FROM sHILoH's AUTUMN FIELDS.

Gay with golden-rod, purple with as- ters, and scarlet with sumac and clam bering woodbines, our fields are kingly in their gorgeous apparel Masses of dainty leaved vines pour down the trunks of messy trees in a tangle of glory, which nature, in her haste to adorn, could not finger to unwind slowly, but threw, over tree and bush, and rocky wall, with an easy grace copied in vain by the hands of her worshippers.
 The perfected life, and glow, and warmth pervading our whole earth-world as far as our splendor- filled eyes can see, charm the soul with fnller sense of bliss than enchanting poem or inspired ser mon from masterful lips.
 The penetrating fragrance of ripened grapes, hanging in dark clusters, under meath broad leaves curling gracefully about slender willowy trees, mingled with the perfume of late clover fields, freshly mown and piled in oval heaps, comes to us with the cool breezes that stir faintly the tall grasses about the un- gleaned knolls Great red and golden apples half conceal, half reveal their tempting forms in the crushed grass un- derneath the dense orchard shades. The crickets chirp, insects buzz drowsily, an occasional highway robber" flirts saucy wings in one's face, lingering birds sing songs of early Spring and Summer, sweeter still when heard where least ex- pected, from some fairy-touched tree whose brilliant foliage turned red, in ea- ger haste to be first to tell the beautiful story of the changing of the seasons. l After the shut-in-ness of our home rooms, however pleasantly decorated, the freshness of the fields comes like reve- lation from the heaven world. It is like some beautiful, great change, perhaps akin to the transition we all shall know that is waiting near us all the time.
 l Go, every one, for day, to the glori ous Autumn fields, and enjoy the "after math" of our perfect Summer. Don1 take book with you to read, any more than you would take one to church witt you, and occupy yourself reading, while the minister is preaching you heart some sermon. Nature must feel the in

WHILE famine is desolating Southern Hin
dostan, there are other parts of the Indian
Empire where breadstufs are so cheap and
abundant that they hardly pay the cost OF
production. In the Upper Mahanadi, dis
trict of average fertility, hectoltre of wheat
sells for two francs and half. In the famine
region it costs ten times rs much twenty
five francs. The frequently recurring famines
in the Bombay and Madras departments have
Convinced the British government Of the ne
cessity of bringing all parts of India into in
accommodation, and of opening a market
for the surplus products of districts that have
no outlet. With this object iu view gigan-
tic system of canalization has been devised
which will cover India with navigable canals
and enable grain to be transported az cheap
rates to all the domestic markets as well as to
the seaports for expectation. The plans of
this immense chain of public works are ma
tured, and they are to be put in execution be-
fore the close of the present year. If India
should, through these and other means, sup
ply the English demand for grain, Russia,
driven from her most profitable market, would
fall back on Germany and create competi-
tion of the most ruinous kind with the grain
growers of Central Europe.
