Grain in Europe and America.

Europe produces now on an average
5000 900, 600 bushels of grain, of which
Russia produces one-third, Germany
and France, $40, 900, 900 each and Aus
tria 500, 5000 The United States
produces 1000, 000,0 900 bushels, or
about the same as Russia. In order to
appreciate the advantages of the United
States, the population should be taken
into account; this is for the United
States, 40, 000,0 900. and therefore we
produce forty bushels per head; while
Europe, with population of quite
BOG, 900 600, produces sixteen bushels
Russia twentysix bushels per head and
Great Britain only four bushels per
head. As the average quantity of grain
consumed. per head, is fifteen bushels,
we produce nearly three times as much
as we want. Russia scarcely twice its
wants, Europe on an average all need
ed, but Great Britain, not much over
than one fourth. 1t will be seen that
the general production far surpasses
the consumption, but this excess is alb
sorbed by breweries and distilleries all
over the world, which do more to keep
the price of breadstuf1s at high figure
than anything else.

The Conscientious IrisLman.

Near Fortress Monroe there is lit
tie Catholic Church. concerning which
the following story is told:
While Mcclellan s campaign on the
peninsula was in progress, the contra
bands focked down around Fortress
Monroe by thousands for food and pro-
lection. One night party Of them,
who had never seen Catholic Church, ,
entered the building, admiring the al
tar and its equipments, and one, more
bold than the rest, put on the priests
robes which were hanging in the closet.
He stood before his fellows to receive
their admiration, when there was a
sound like the breaking of window
glass, and he fell dead ON the floor.
The superstitious negroes, thinking he
had been stricken down by a bolt from
outraged heaven, left the church in a
tumult, and when the man was found
there in the morning with bull ct in
his heart, there was no one to offer an
explanation. The man was buried and
the incident forgotten.
Months afterward, message came
rom the fort that a soldier lay dying
in the hospital and wanted to see the
priest. The holy father answered the
summons, and went to the bedside of
the dying man, who said he car
ried q great crime en- his soul, which
he wanted to confess. The priest then
heard the explanation of the mysteri-
Gus tragedy in the church. The SOL
der said that he was doing guard duty
on the fort one night, and looking into
the window of the church. he saw q
crowd of negroes surrounding one of
their numoer who had sacriligiously
assumed the sacred robes. His musket
was at his shoulder, and, bsing true
Catholic, he took careful aim and shot
the negro through the heart.
"That was o terrible crime to carry
on your soul so long" said the priest.
sit is an awful thing to kill fellow be-
ing, although, through ignorance, he
was doing wrong"
at want killing the mayer that lay
on me sowl, your riverence," replied
the soldier, sit was so unceremoniously
putting bullet through the holy visit

LEPRosY IN SPAIN.-The announce
ment that leprosy had made its appear
ance in the province of Alicante will
not surprise any one who has travelled
in that part of Spain, for l was inform
ed while staying at Valencia that in
that province. which borders on Alican-
tie, there were one hundred and sixteen
known cases of leprosy last year, seven
ty-one of which proved fatal. There
can be no doubt that other cases had
escaped detection, as persons suffering
from this disease generally attempt to
conceal tke fact even from their rela-
tives. There is a hospital outside of
Valencia set apart entirely for lepers,
and all those who refuse to enter it are
kept isolated and are subject to very
severe sanitary regulations. At st.
Simat de Vallligna the inhabitants
call leprosy "the Moor's evil, and at
Enquerra "St. Lazaruss evil" The
kind of leprosy most prevalent in the
province of Valencia is tubercular, or
Greek leprosy, while in Alicante the
Hebrew leprosy is the most common
form.-PaU Mall Gazette.

AN EXTRAORDINARY lNvENTIoN.-The
last scientific story is told thus: The
SATURDAY, Rerie,c once declared that the
greatest benefactor Of the human race
would be he who could enable man to
drink an unlimited quantity Of wine
without getting drunk. Such a man
has been found. DR.. Bell invented the
telephone, but its wonders pale before
the telegastograph. This is an electri-
cal machine by which the palate can be
tickled and pleased by any flavor, and
for any length Of time, without fear Of
indigestion or inebriety. BY putting
soup or fish or wine into a receptacle
connected with q powerful battery, the
taste OF the daintiest viands can be con-
veyed along telegraph wire for miles,
and to an unlimited number of bon
rirants. They have only to put the
wire into their mouths, and they seem
to be eating and drinking. They may
got drunk or over-fed, but the moment
the contact is broken the evil effects
pass of, and nothing remains but 80
delightful EXPLANATION" The inventor,
however. keeps the modus opsrandi .
perfect secret, and wishes to perfect
his discovery before he discloses il TO
the world.--GaligmanSs Assssngsr.

TRAINING GIRLs.--In the training OF
little girls, great pains should be taken
to discover what special gilt or talent
they have, if any and, whatever their cir
cumstances, to fitthem for its use. Even
putting the money value of such art or
accomplishment out of the question, its
aid us resource and strengthener is
invaluable. Disappointment and grief
come more easily to women than men.
They abide with them longer, and sap
more of their life away, simply because
they need the tonic of hard, enjoyable
work-not the mere drudgery of the
bread winner, but the toll of the artist.
Neither pride nor philosophy can give
the new vitality which such work be-
slows on the faithful votary. 1t repairs
bodily and mental forces like nature
itself-slowly. imperceptibly, surely.
The father and mother who can find in
their daughter such power, and give to
her the means Of using it, may count
themselves happy, and the inheritor Of
a royal heritage.

A collision between a steamship and
a gigantic fish, which took place the
other day in the vicinity of the Tong
Tong Islands, is reported by the Times
of India. The Messageries Marittmes
steamer A"Gdyr. on. its voyage to
Shanghai, was suddenly brought to a
stop by violent shock. The cause of
the collision was found to be an enorm-
Gus ray, or flat fish, estimated by those
on board to weigh from 5000 to 10000
pounds. The monster was lying asleep
on the Top of the water when its repose
was rudely disturbed by dig in the
ribs" from the stem of the steamer
After the first alarm had subsidized, eff
forts were made to haul the creature on
board, but, owing to its unwieldiness,
all attempts in this direction proved
fruitless, and the fish, doubtless even
more "shaken" than the passengers on
the boat, was reluctantly allowed to
move off and seek such remedies for
the injury it had sustained as are to be
procured in the mysterious deep.--Pall
Mall Gazette.

Progress of Total Abstinence in Eng
land.

In England, where the theory and
practice of total abstinence have always
been scoffed at by the cultivated major
ity, the awful prevalence of drunken
ness is leading to the formation of a
public sentiment against drinking as
strong as any that ever existed in this
country. The clergy have hitherto
maintained drinking practices, but now
many of the ministers of the Establish
ment as well as of the dissenting bodies,
with large section of the medical
profession, and distinguished men from
every walk in life have united in a Wig
orous movement for the suppression of
drunkenness.
Canon Earrar, in sermon preached
few Sundays since. in Westminster
Abbey, declared alcoholic drinking
and drunkenness to be the one glaring,
disgraceful, and perilous national vice,
by which the nation stands unenviably
distinguished and seriously endang-
cred"
So strong a feeling of the evils of
drunkenness as that which now prevails
in respectable circles in England nat
urally leads to tho adoption Of the
Christian rule of total abstinence. 1t
does not require the imposition of total
abstinence upon others as rule; it only
leads a man to say: because this evil
is so great; and because l wish to save
those who are running themselves by
drink; and because cannot very effect
lively urge them to abstain without alb
staining myself; therefore relinquish
o luxury which have not abused, and
to which 1 deem myself entitled. that
may more successfully persuade those
to abandon it to whom it is proving .
curse" It begins to be evident in Eng
land that the course OF conduct is some
thing very different from fanaticism;
and the same truth ought to be equally
evident on this si.le the ocean. - Adis-
