A fire that broke out in boiler shop in st.
Johns. N. b., spread with great rapdity and
soon the whole business part of the city was in
flames. Hundreds of houses, stores and lumber
yards were destroyed, aud number of lives
were lost. All the public buildings newspaper

of the city were DESTROYED causing IL loss of
over fifteen million dollars. -. John d. Town
send, counsel for William NJ. Tweed, published
q long letter, addressed to Attorney General
Fairchild of New York, commenting severely
upon that gcnteman's use of the statement Of
Tweed. which was recently returned to the
latter by the Encouragement without any ac-
ton looking to the release of the once powerful
head of the ring having been taken. Mr.. Town
send, in his letter, gives an outline of what
Tweed promised to disclose and the connection
of various important personages with ring
affairs is limited at, though no names are mem
toned. -. Governors Robinson Of New York,
and Wade Hampton, of South Carolina, and
the venerable General Shields, were present at
the twenty-fifth anniversary of the Shields
Guards at Auburn, N. Y, and delivered ad-
dresses .... Five tramps were sleeping upon
the tops of broken furnaces of disused lime
kilns near Bridgeport, Pa, when the walls
suddenly gave way, burying the men. -Four of
them were crushed to death and the fifth re-
ceived probably fatal injuries.

made to guard against rescue by friends Of
the condemned men, and the m litia was in
readiness to quell any disturbance, but none
occurred, although an attempt was made to set
fire to Pottsville early in the morning. without
success. A reprieve had been sent to Pottsville
by the governor, to be used in favor Of Duffy in
case any of Lis companions should make con-

but as nothing occurred which gave cause for

Some Yosemite Indians have come in

in front of the fall, to add the picturesque

COntented Farmers.

AS a reason why American farmers
ought to be contented, the Agric,4turSst
gives this account of the farmer in
England: He does not own his land,
except in very rare instances, and is
obliged not only to pay q yearly rental
of $50 to SIS per acre, but to keep the
hardly worked land in good condition,
is forced to employ working capital
of at least $50 an acre, to be expended
in artificial fertilizers. He is prohibited
by law from killing wild animals, such
as rabbits, hares, foxes, cartridges, and
pigeons, while his cats and dogs are
killed by his landlords gamekeeper,
lest they might injure the game. This
game feeds on his crops, and he must
submit to see his fields sometimes raw
aged by them. He is obliged to raise
such crops as his landlord considers
best for the land. He is bound to all
these requirements by al exacting
lease, which makes him species of
serf to his landlord"

The walking stick insects, as they
are called, in their turn initiate, in the
skeleton like structure of their bodies,
the appearance of dried twigs; and it
is singular fact that even in their
awkward, ungainly manner Of walking,
the resemblance to the chance move
ments of twigs is clearly preceptible,
the mimicry being rendered more real
istic through this latter phase. Then,
also we find certain harmless groups of
moths initiating closely the outward ap-
pearance of q species of singing bees
and hornets. And one remarkable
case of mimicry is the well known IL
stance of some perfectly inodorous
South American butterflies, which per-
fectly reproduce the external appear
ances of other butterflies which
emit an offensive odor; the
reason assigned for this latter
phase of mimicry being the very teas-
IDLE one that the inodorous forms are
protected from the attacks of birds by
their resemblance to their strong
smelling neighbors. AS a last instance
of this curious phase of animal organ
izatiOn, we may note the example fur
nished by those curious little fishes the
Hippocampi, or sea horses-so named
from the obvious resemblance of the
form of the head to that of q horse
the bodies of which become covered
with long streamers of certain kinds of
seaweed; so that, when these fishes
rest amid the seaweed covered hooks
of their marine grottoes, the presence
of their streamers serves to render de-
lection by their enemies no easy mat
ter. Popatlcr Science Monthly.
