The Digging Up Of Troy Completed.
[From the st. Petersburg Glo)

We have received letter from the
famous archnologist, Schlieman, dated
Athens March 14th. We print this ex-
tract
II have Just returned from Asia Mi
nor, where have at last finished that
digging out of Troy which l began in
1870. During ten years l have strug-
gled with great difficulties; among which
perhaps the most troublesome has been
the large amount of debris under which
the ancient city was buried. 1t has
been necessary to dig down and dig up
the ground for more than 16 yards be-
low the surface. But am fully recon-
pensed for all my trouble. found the
remains of seven different ancient cities;
the last of them was the Lion Of Homer.
That city was built by the AEolians, ban
ished from Greece by the Dorlans in the
eleventh century before our era. In one
of the buried cities / found one of the
statues of Minerva with the owls head,
whence her name of Glaucopis. In an
other city were found many images of
the divinities. But the most interesting
and important of all the discoveries Is, OF
course, the cities of King Priam. Every
article found in the ruins of that city
bear unmistakable signs of having been
destroyed by fire and in time OF war.
there were discovered many remains OF
human bodies in full armor. l dug out
and cleared away the debris from the ell,
tire wall that surrounded the city, and
also from all of the principal buildings.
Now am finishing large volume IL
English describing with full details snn ins
trations of the most important of the
discoveries. My Trojan collection j:
now in London, but at the end of THU
year shall take it to my villa in Athens
which is fire proof, built only of marble
and iron. I have received large Offer
for my collection from the United States
England, France and Germany, but
cannot part with it for any money in the
! world"

overheard the plot concocted by the cap
tain and his accomphce TO stop me at the
end Of the lane, and under the cloak of

I'D made up my mind to run away
and gave thee warning, and got away

tachment of officers, from the ncighbor-
ing town, we made the best Of our way
to the Retreat.
We approached it very cautiously, aud
completely surrounded it, but all to no
purpose; the birds had flown and left no
trace behind them.
The little furniture that was left was
taken possession Of by the officers, and
especially the black bottle of stuff that
would send fellow to sleep SD nicely.
Although every inquiry was made, and
no exertion spared to find the miscreants,
yet nothing more was ever heard of the
captain and his man Mark.

Feeding the Animals.

Animals in menagerie are very dainty
about their food. In the Philadelphia
$500" the "boss" elephant eats about
100 pounds of hay in "a hours, and it
must be of the best grade of timothy.
The sea-lions insists in having twelve to
fifteen fresh mackerel apiece. Next in
point of delicate livers come the polar
bears, whose regular 'liet is bread soaked
in milk, with fish now and then for
change. The black bears are also given
bread, 100 pounds being used daily.
Vegetables of any sort are fed literally
to the different animals. The elephants
are great cabbage eaters, and the CRATES
are onion eaters. Bran and oats and
corn are also literally Observation-Disclosures
" once or twice week-among the hay
eating animals. The most delicate and
expensive feeder in the place, perhaps,
is the orang- outang, which gets beef, po-
tatoes. bread and honey.

at the swimming Farm in Billerica, III
feeding ensilage, as fodder thus procured
is called, goes to show that by this feed
milk can be produced at one cent per
quart and butter ut 10 cents per pound.
The average farmer is not expected to
build silos and raise corn fodder on the
extensive scale practiced mt Winning
Farm, but he should keep a sharp look
out in this direction and be ready to
"pitch in when the thing is reduced to
certain rules. The time is possibly not
far distant when we may raise our own
sugar from corn. The experiments at
Washington point in this direction, and
we want to keep our hands skilled i'll the
manipulation OF this "golden crop"
Some of the root crops need to be
sown in May, beets and rutabagas par
ticularly. Both of these roots are very
hardy, and do better when sown pretty
early. We like to get carrots in also
early, SO that they may receive the bene-
fit Of the spring rains and get such "A
state that they will shade the ground
some before the summer droughts appear.
The beet crop is worthy of more extern
sive culture. 1t is an unsolved problem,
as yet, whether beets or corn is to furnish
sugar for the future; but, whether beets
are best for sugar or not, they are good
for mich COWS beyond any peradventure.
They also make good food for swine,
sheep and horses, but for the latter we
prefer carrots.
In the presence of farm labors in May,
the farmer must not neglect his vegcta-
bic garden. Lettuce, parsnips, peas,
onions, radishes and satisfy are already
sown, or ought to have been; but Il sec
ond and third crop of peas should he put
in this month, and also Il succession OF
sweet corn crops, the Narragansett aud
Curry for early, and Concord and Ever
green for late. Beans should not be
planted till all danger of frost is past;
then put III some Chinas and German
Wax for early dwarf, and Limas ard

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, April 81, 1880.
The politicians were in ferment yesterday
over rumored vetoes by Mr.. Hayes The army
appropriation bill was to be vetoed, radicals said,
because of the proviso against paying troops at
the polls. But don't believe such veto proba-
BILE. Having once approved bill with the same
proviso, 1t is hardly probable Mr.. Hayes win veto
it when a Presidential election is to be held.
That would be toe glaring an attempt to steal
the highest Office in the country. Itwould COM
pei the people to believe that Mr.. Hayes had
joined that portion of his party which is deter
mined never to surrender the Presidency.
The Naval appropriation bill will be reported
to the Senate by the proper committee, exactly
as it passed the House 1t will be remembered
that the House passed the bill just as it came
from the committee, and substantially according
to the recommendations of the Secretary
of the Navy. Few cabinet officers ever had
a higher compliment paid them than is con-
veyed in this action of Congress Secretary
Thompson is the one member of the cabinet
whose official course always has the undivided
support of both parties in Congress
Under instructions from the full House Com
bill will be drawn and presented soon to provide
for an extension of ocean mail service in Amer
lean built vessels. The intention, OF course, is
that the compensation for carrying the mail shall
be 80 liberal as to aid in establishing lines Of
steamships, principally to South American ports.
When this subject was previously under con-
sideration in Congress there seemed . prospect
that enc line, at least would receive the necessary
aid. But the project failed entirely then, and 1
think the opposition at this time is stronger still.
Al any rate it is better organized, and can see
no hope whatever for the proposed bill
I do not understand the policy Of those De@
ocrats in the Senate who are forcing debate on
the Spoford Kellogg case. They are not only
dividing Democratic Senators, bat creating har
mony among Radical Senators. 1t il known
that Kellogg cannot be unseated. Why not drop
the debate?
The most important Democratic State Conven-
ton of the year opens to-day at Harrisburgh,
Before this letter Is read in pint the result win
be known, and the responsibility of Messrs Wal
lace and Randall for Democratic defeat next fall,
or the credit they viii be entitled TO for victory
win be determined. Union upon sny Of the nu-
merous proper Democrats mentioned for the
Presidency would 90 far to insure success.

On taking possession Of the Nashville and

engines which were fit only for the scrap heap,

Junk dealers. Two of them-s fact Of which the

$4,000 mere than they would had the engines
been iron, as was supposed when the purchase
was made.

announcement of the ice dealers Of that city that
one cent per pound win be charged for ice the

who are large consumers, are putting up ice
machinery in their establishments for the purpose
of making their own ice. The cost of labor Is
gineer and one workman to run q six-ton ma
chine, and it requires no more men to run q
hundred-ton machine The cost Of the ice win
be from $1.25 to s., according to the capacity of
the machine. A 1ifty-ton machine viii produce
Ice at cost of $1.25 per ton. The same paper
announces that the Maine dealers have materially
modifi ed their views, ample supplies Of stacked
ice, to Be moved before Nay 1, now being avail
able there at about q. free ON board. and some
contracts for housed lots are understood to have
been made at the same figure.
