The commissioner of pensions makes
the statement that 250, 000applications
for pensions are still pending. He es-
Inmates that during the next ten years,
if the same rate OF increase is kept up,
and he sees no reason TO doubt that it
will, the pension roll will be doubled
and the annual disbursements will eN-
ceed S50,000,000. At present it takes
Is per cent of the whole revenue of the
government to pay pensions. The
sum required is about equal to the az
gregate amount paid by Great Britain,
France, Germany, Belgium, Austria
and Hungary. Great Britain is al
ways at war, but her annual disburse-
ments for pensions to soldiers amount
only to 81, 765, 6S5.

LATEST INVENTION.
From the Sugar Cane

The Rochester (New York; Demo-
crat states that a company propose to
put in operation at the lower falls of
the Genesse river, at Rochester, a
great motor, the invention of Mr.. j.
NJ. Bots. The company expect to OBJ
tain such an enormous power as will
enable them ito supply the city Of
Rochester and vicinity with a motor
in lieu of steam, for mechanical and
manufacturing purposes-a motor ca
pable of working every and all
kinds of machinery in the city, with
force enough reserved to supply COM
pressed air and run all our street cars,
unaided by any other propelling pow
er. Also to supply the city with a
light in lieu of gas. cheaper, brighter,
softer, and safer than the Edison
horseshoe light. In this connection
mention may be made of the fact hat
the company already produces a light
which meets the description given,
and where it costs a dollar to generate
gas, this light can be generated for a
cent a foot. The Motor Company
has already made partial arrange
ments with the street railway compa-
ny, so hat at the works Of the former
at the lower falls, the air-cylinders to
be put upon each car can be filled in
a few seconds with enough compress
ed air to run them Is miles. The
tracks of the Rochester City and
Brighton Railroad Company are al
ready laid to the site Of the company's
works, so that the cars "a be sup
piled without any additional expense
in this respect. The new power can
be supplied at less than one-tenth the
present cost of horse power, and yet
allow a very liberal margin of profit
to the Motor shareholders.

back we come to Christiansted in fine

selves by carrying on the fancy
but, putting imagination aside, what
seems to be sober fact is that a COM

line is opened up for the exercise of
the ingenuity of inventors.

From Magdeburg (April ~, M
LIGHT, reports as follows The varia-
tons OF temperature have been very
great, and in the last few days we
have seen the thermometer rise to the
point, altogether extraordinary of 23c.
270 Celsius, in the shade, towards
midday. In these conditions, we
need not say, vegetation has made
extraordinary progress; but on that
account there is room to fear for the
future, for a temperature SO unusual
a scarcely continue.
The sowing of beetroot is progress
ing everywhere in favourable condi-
tons, even in Russia they will now be
able to begin.
The increase of surface reserved
for beet is confirmed, except in Bel.
gium.
M. Achleitner reports from Vienna
april I5th): The weather during
the last week has been variable, first
showery and rough, since calm and
agreeable. Sowing has continued
without much interruption, and APP
pears sufficiently advanced. From
other countries we receive the same
news. Russia alone remains in arrear.
AS respects Belgium. it is thought her
sowings will not be larger than last
year.

BEET CROP PROSPECTS for 1880.
From the Sugar Cane.)

The temperature for the week in
France has been variable, but, on the
whole, fine and favourable; and
makes ample amends for the severity
Of the past Winter, forming as it does,
the most striking contrast to the same
period last year when snow and cold
rains were SO prevalent, making the
land absolutely inaccessible, and SOW
ing impossible: This year the sowing
present month, (April) and has scarce
" since been interrupted, which is
said to promise both weight and a
high saccharine richness in the roots.
Another cause of satisfaction is
that the leaves are developing rapidly,
covering and thereby protecting the
soil from the drying heat Of the sun.

PRINCE BISMARCK ON THE
GERMAN EMPIRE.

In Saturdays sitting Of the Ger
man Parliament the Elbe navigation
act came on for the second reading.
DR.. Dalbrueck supported the motion
of the Committee that the house
should assent to the bill, with the
proviso that it should only be possible
to remove by a special law the Gus
toms frontier stations at present exist
ing on the Elbe to places lower down
the river.
Prince Bismarck %thereupon deliv-
cred a speech, in which he said he re-
garded the reservation proposed by
the committee as an attempt to put
a pressure upon the Government to
which the latter could not submit.
The Imperial Constitution was on the
side of the Government in this mat
ter, so hat if a provincial law was re-
lied upon as e~nacting that the Customs
frontier on the Elbe could not be
removed that law would be over
ruled by the Constitution of the En-
pire. 1t was a question of Constitu-
tional law, the practice of which had
never hitherto been placed in doubt.
After pointing out that it was danger
Gus to sowdiscord between the Federal
Governments, and that peace rested
upon the maintenance of a good
understanding, the Imperial Cham
cellor proceeded as follows 1.-THE
only thing which makes me retain
office is the will OF the Emperor.
When l see with what obstacles [
have to contend in labouring for the
unity of the Empire, 1 feel a strong
desire for rest IN retirement. In
case you consider the power of the
Centre unconquerable, ! should, on
my retirement, advise you, in the
interests of peace, to select a Minis
try which would jointly represent
the wishes of the Centre and the
Conservative party. | ann tired,
tired to death, when / see how my
efforts are constantly thwarted by
the Liberals, who will not give way
upon the smallest points when the
continued existence of the Empire is
at stake. Do not ask for my co.
operation when each one considers
himself called upon and entitled to
place the very bases of the Empire
in Ibid
