TRIcHINA-S edatia, Mo-, May pa
veritable instance OF trichina. probably the
first ever known in Central Missouri, has
been developed near Windsor, Henry coun-
", Il station On the Missouri, Kansas, and
Texas railway, twenty-one miles southwest
from this city. James Darnel, q farmer,
had two children girls, aged respectively
six and eight years, who became strongly
affected about three weeks ago. DR.. Rich
ard L. Shadburne. the family physician,
was called, but could mark out no correct
diagnosis OF their disorder, as medicine
seemed to have no effect whatever. After
microscopicai investigation the truth be-
came apparent that they were suffering
from trichina spiralisis, caused from eating
uncooked pork. Last fall among the hogs
falted by Mr.. Darnell for market was one
which accumulated no flesh. When sale
was made this one was reserved. Subse-
quently it gained requisite amount OF
FLESH, aud was reserved for family use.
From the ham Of this hog the children par
took heartily-as is the custom OF western
farmers cnidren-without thought or
knowledge on the mothers part. Of the Sc
ricus consequences. Yesterday the afflicted
ones seemed TO be resting easily, but there
Is no hope entertained for their recovery.
Hundreds OF people have visited Mr.. OAR
nelPs house through sympathy and curios-
lty, and there is no doubt but this instance
OF trichina will work great reformation
among class who have been habituai pork
eaters.

ANNUAL, CELEBRATION OF HER MAJESTY S
BIgTH.DAY-ENTHUsIASTI MEETING OF BRI-
TlsHERs-PAYMENT OF THE STATE DEBT AND
IMMIGRATION TO VIRGINIA STRONGLY ADY0-
GATED.
CORRESPONDENCE of the Richmond Dispatchl
FARMvILLE, Va, May "a, 1878.
The annual celebration OF Queen Victo-
rias birthday was conducted in legal fash
ion here to-day.
The annual address was delivered by Mr.
Alfred Moth on the Culture of British I'm
migration to Virginia" Mr.. Moth. who
was The first EngIishman who settled in
this State after the civil war. said that in
spite OF some drawbacks British colonial
ton had proved remarkably successful in
all cases where the settlers had been men
of the right stamp. AS soon as times begin
to mend, peace in Europe was assured, and
the State-debt agitation was closed, there
would be a large influx OF capital and i'm
migrants.
Mr.. Charles Bugg, who presided at the
social gathering, said Englishmen loved Old
Virginia because this State came nearest to
their loving recollections OF Old England.
In response to the toast Of " The Queen,''
Mr.. William Tomlin, OF Bridgeport, Conn.,,
the secretary Of the North America st.
Georges Union, said that Anglo-Americans
everywhere were now united as never be.
fore. There were upwards OF ninety -four
ishing ST. Georges societies,ewi an en-
rolled membership OF 10000. He was doing
all he couidto promote immigration to Viz
ginia, and was proud to say that the
Sappony colony, which he had founded in
Dinwiddie county, was succeeding beyond
his anticipations. He was also working up
the St. Georges hospital, proposed to be
established in Prince Edward county. He
warmly endorsed the views expressed by
Mr.. Moth in his address.
Mr.. St. Andrew said that as be expected
soon to revisit his native land he foresaW
only one difficulty in securing immigration,
and that was due to the deRorable agitation
Of the State-debt question. A State without
credit and people without capital would
never become prosperous; but lie
hoped to see Virginia honestly re.
deeming her credit, and then capital and
enterprise would speedily develop the vast
resources of the Commonwealth and scatter
peace and plenty everywhere each return.
