AN EXCITING SCENE AT CAPE MAYA
thrilling incident was witnessed on the
beach at Cape May Sunday afternoon. A
young man named McGarry was in the surf
bathing, when he was suddeply carried out
beyond his depth. The surf-boat was not
out at the time, and some minutes passed
before the crew could be got together.
Finally, however, they manned the boat and
struck out for the rescue. The tide was so
strong that the young man foated down to
Sea Grove before the boat overlook him,
having been in the water over two hours.
At the time there were thousands OF people
on the beach anxiously watching the strug-
Cling man in the water and the efforts OF the
boat to reach him. When he was finally
drawn into the boat alive shout OF relief
went up from those who bad witnessed the
exciting spectacle from the shore.

Editors Dispatch: The city Of Richmond
may eypend as much as she peases on her
streets, but as long as the heavy, springless,
Iour-horse wagons-Jef. Davis pianos-are
licensed it will be a waste OF money. They
cut up the streets and make such diaboli-
cal noise that many persons, it is really be-
lieycd, have been sent 10 the lunatic asylum
by their agency. No other city OF consc-
quence in this country permits wagons OF
any kind without springs. II there is in
our City Council real desire to benefit the
community let them give notice that after
May, 1879, no springless vehicle will be
licensed 10 ran OH our streets. VETERAN.

WHEAT.-[SprinUield (O) RepubAc.|
We caught State University Professor
(Hon. Norton F. TownSenD OH the fly the
other day, and questioned him concerning
recent investigations as to the proper time
for cutting wheat. He asserted that lie had
become convinced that wheat cut when not
fully ripe had plenty of starch in the kernel
and would make white flour, but that it
lacked the quality which was needed to
make the dough rise well. This quality is
foundin in the gluten, which forms only when
the berry is fully ripe, and in this gluten is
4 good quantity OF nutriment; so that, while
white bread may be made of -four from un-
ripe wheat, it will be neither SO light nor
nutritious as flour made from grain fully
ripe. The Professor further says that he
has discovered that when the stalk OF the
wheat ripeps first the gluten which is in it
rises into the grains in the head, but that
when the grain ripcns first this gluten re-
mains in the stalk and is lost. The next
thing to be discovered will he, we suppose,
a method Of making the stalk ripen before
the head

the country roads Of the State, due north

chimes, and perform other feats such US the
ingenuity or wisdom of the commissioners
might suggest. The commission was duly
appointed, and met at Green Bay,
Wis, on the 10Th instant. There were
but two entries, the " Oshkosh" by
Schooner & Farrand, of Oshkosh, and
the "Green Bay,'' by Cowles Brothers, OF

with several accidents which detained it on
the road, but the former made the trial "trip
