The Terrible Famine In China.

The ravages of famine in China seem to have increased to an unparalleled de- gree, and eclipse even those of British India in their magnitude and incidental horrors. According to the latest news from the northern provinces the area of misery has not contracted and the terrors of extreme cold are added to those of hunger. AS in India, the parental in- stinct seems to be deadened in the pres ence of personal want and children are sold by furnishing fathers and mothers for a meal. Perhaps the condition of these children may be improved by the transfer, because 1t is evident their pur- chasers must possess the means of sup porting them, otherwise the buying of children would have no object As in too many cases men are found heartlese enough to speculate on the misfortunes of their fellow beings, and the Chinese officials appear to be largely of that class of human hyenas who prosper during periods of widespread misery. The ex- asperated people have in some instances broken into revolt against these cruel speculators, and we learn of one manda- rin being beheaded by the people of Pachung. The burning of the refuge house at Tientsin with nearly three thou sand inmates appears, side by side with the famine itself, only an unimportant incident, yet is a frightful calamity, on a scale which thrills the civilized world with terror.

Trout Culture Described.

A report on the culture of trout of the salmon family, by B. B. Porter of San Francisco, Cal, was read and discussed before the American Fish Culturists' As sociation. MT. Porter's experience was had at Crystal Spring Fish Pond, near Oakland, Gal. Indispensable requisites to trout raising are never failing spring of fresh water of uniform temperature during the year, and good fall, not ia- ble to be washed out by floods. Spawn matching on grounds is nearly obsolete. Wire trays are used. The fry can be put into small pond and they will shift for themselves. The result is. that start ing with 100000 eggs, 10000 cannot burst the egg shell, 5000 die from blue swelling of the sack, in six weeks 1000 will have died from disease and canni- balism, in six months about 30,000 will remain, and in year 25, ,OOO. At matu rity 20, 0,000 will be left, and ln another year between 5000 and 10000 fish will be all you will have and yet trout cul ture is a success. No one has raised trout exclusively for the table, but 1t can and will be done by combined skill and capital, and will pay. The methods for raising the salmon family are similar.
 Seth Green, Superintendent of Fish cries in this State, said that his success in raising trout had been greater. The present popular and successful method of stocking streams is, he said, to plant the fry in riyulets after the yolk sac is absorbed. Where the rivulet is very small, deep holes are dug along the banks where the current Is not strong. The chief danger lies in overstocking streams. Matching in pond previous to planting is good, but below the pond should be running spring to carry off sediment above. Last year he had set free 10000 young trout, and raised them until now. He attributed his success to cleaning out the matching troughs every other day. For the last two years he had impregnated ninety per cent. of the eggs Now he has on hand 1,600, ,000 fry to be distributed in streams in the coming spring. In 1876 he set free a million, and, in 1877, 1, 1,300,000. A large percentage lived. In three years after planting the young in proper waters he has saved fifty per cent In 8 small stream near his place eighty per cent. survived. He had experimented with the California mountain brook trout. At two years old they are twice as large as the Eastern variety and are the sauciest, gamest fish alive; they can whip any other kind five times their size ill five seconds. The spots on their sides are black, instead of red. The male impreg- mates at a year old.

Tbe Nursery of the City.

Iwouldnt take on" any more about country children going to the city, says a newspaper correspondent. You can't stop 'em from going when they are called for, any more than you can stop blood from going to the brain when it Is called for. Children are n proper farm crop. We raise children in the country some times that are not fit to live there, and the only regret we should have when they leave for the town is that they are not better ones. The farm game prop erly is to grow men and women for city activities and keep itself in Q condition to grow good ones and plenty of them. Clean the cities by showing III fresh blood with vigor enough to drive out its ill humors and keep the farm strong by saving the city's waste on it. say send the boys and girls right off to town that want to go. If they come back, let 'em recruit by choring around for their board and farm boots till they feel stiff enough to try it again.
 Much of the talk about keeping boys on the farm proceeds from the desire of timid and feeble city folks not to be crowded by ambitions young country people. No matter what we may say about it, the ratio of city and country population is settled by natural law-not by talk. Our young men fix themselves for good, after being journeymen for a while. My life is the happier for having been spent partly in the city. We old birds must let tho young ones test their wings, or they'll never know what they are good for. Restraint is not half so contenting to wayward child as liberty to go and good riddance. The papers tell of a young prodigal telegraphing his father at the North from Texas, "Fatted calf for one."

Startled Them,

A Harrisburg correspondent of the Pittsburg Telegraph relates pleasing incident. A Senator attended MT. Pax on's church last Sunday, accompanied by a candidate for Governor. The two gentlemen were escorted to front pew by the usher, and seated by couple of ladies, the Senator being seated next to the ladies. During the sermon the Sen ator concluded that he would pick his teeth, and not yet having drawn his legislative tooth-pick he pulled from his pocket big-headed lucifer match and his iackknife and began whittling upon the match to bring it down to fine point. While thus engaged the blade of the knife came rather sharply in contact with the birthstone on the head of the match, and this was followed by an explosion something like pistol shot, and blue blazes, smoke and the smell of birthstone. The lady next to the Senator involuntari- ly jumped out of the seat, and many members of the congregation were startled by the report and the ascending smoke.
