A PrOwIinw Desperado Captured

A PrOwIing Desperate Captured.
But one arrest was made on Saturday
night, and that was by patrolman D., who
pulled in a prowling goose. The
sedate looking bird was permitted to
waddle about in the station-house yard.
There is an ordinance prohibiting the
goose, the hog, the goat, the horse, mule
and COW from running at large on the
streets, and the goose had with malice
aforethought and generalization violated
tue ordinance. The goose has a history
most honorable it saved Rome from be
ing captured and sacked in the days OF
old by sounding the alarm and arousing
the garrison Of the city when at night its
besiegers had almost taken possession Of
the walls. The Memphis goose, when
travelling about the streets, was Probably
thinking over the great deeds Of its an.
c%estors, and was like many men and VIC
men nowadays, living on past recollec'
tons Of respe liability when the "peeler"
broke in upon its reverie. Our police
court reporter discovered that the name
of the prisoner al not put on the
docket, as is usual in all cases of arrest.

No Massacres.

Fears are entertained by many people
of great massacres in the event of u Rus
sian invasion. l venture to predict that
no such thing will occur. The Turk
will murder when he has no fear of pun
ishment, and when encouraged to do go
by his own authorities, as in the case of
the massacres in May, but when he fears
Russian vengeance his conduct is very
different. He will be as gentle as a
lamb. 1t is very curious fact that the
Turcophiles always predict massacre if
their friends are interfered with. The
truth is, the Turks never committed mas
sacres yet when interfered with. There
is not single instance. Massacres are
committed when there is an assurance of
immunity. The Turks are not 20 bad as
their friends would have us believe.
There will be no massacres without the
encouragement of the authorities, and
Russia will inform the authorities that
she holds them personally responsible for
such acts When the authorities of a
country so far forget themselves as to
threaten the indiscriminate massacre of
innocent people to brighten Europe from
interference, as did Savfet Pasha, it is
only right that these savages, from the
Mudir up to the Grand Vizier, should be
informed that they are held personally
responsible, and will be hanged to the
first tree if more massacres are attempt
ed. There will be no massacres. A
Bulgarian here in st. Petersburg, who is
just starting to return home, says he does
not in the least apprehend massacres.
If the Russians advance, he will stay
there with his family, but if Russia dis
arms he will fly the country. He men
tions many cases of Turks going to Bull
garian neighbors and bespeaking pro-
lection in case Russian army comes.
This proves that the Turk is cowed by
fear of punishment like any other wild
beast.-St. Petersburg Correspondence Of
the London Neacs.

AGRICULTURE IN MAINE.-There are
about $4,000 farmers in Maine, who prob
ably own three millions of acres of land
valued at over $l0O,OOO,000, or about
one-half Of our State valuation. During
the year these sturdy tillers of the sol
have had their labors rewarded by gener-
oas crops. The yield of hay and pota-
toes, their two staple crops, has been un-
usually good, while other products have
also yielded abundantly. No other oc-
cupation in Maine pays better than farm
ing, the annual value of our crops being
some $50, 600, 0O0-nearly, or quite one
half of which comes from the hay crop
alone. A Bangor potato dealer estimates
the potato crop this year to be 1000, 1000
bushels, of which 100000 bushels have
been exportedfrom the State.-Toby Can
