Mrs. Anderson, Of Chicago, rented her
property to..a German who proposed
thereon to open beer garden. She was
cited before the Trinity Methodist

Drysdale, President of the Malthusiam
League, says that he once met in an
English hospital young woman of that
name. She was the thirteenth daughter
of her mother, and was named Enough"
by a justly incensed father, who evident

About the latitude of the Cape Verde
Islands on the Atlantic it is frequent ex-
perience Of yoyage1s to observe falls of
red dust and dry kind of mist. The
material OF the dust mass was examined
microscopically many years ago by
Ehrenberg, and his opinion was that
small particles carried aloft from all
countries here formed 8 transparent dust
zone from which they sometimes sank

publicans will no doubt render his situa-
ton intolerable. The writer thinks the
Marshal will shortly resign and remarks

The annual losses by fire in the United
States aggregate $1OO,O0o,Oo0, and the
opinion has been expressed that they add
materially to the hard times. The gener-

times like the present it is not probably
half the sum. Hence our losses by fire
are equal to 10 or 80 per cent of our en-
tire increasement, which is not far from the
tax levied upon European nations for the
support of their immense standing armies.
Losses by fire in this country are, how
ever, steadily diminishing.

these progressive white men fail to see

collected the excess of births over deaths
is considerable in large number of the

quadrupled in 40 years and more than
doubled in thirty years. It may as we'll
be confessed that very little is really
known about the true condition of the

A young man, whose parents lived in
the country, procured employment in this
city, says the Philadelphia Item, and after
sojourn Of several months received a
letter announcing the illness Of his father.
The sickness was not considered Of a
serious nature, and speedy recovery
was anticipated. A week or ten days af-
