Yesterday afternoon about Eve
O'Clock, a. James johnson, col, an

superintendent Of the mill ran to the
edge Of the wharf, and looking down.
the tide being low, saw Jonnson
helplessly fioundering about IN the
water and being rapidly carried away
by the swift current. Mr.. Coyle
seixed a board and leaning out thrust
one end of it into the drowning
mans hands, but the latter, in his
desperate fright, kept thrashing his
arms in violent manner, and paid
no attention to the board, his hea d
being under water most Of the time.
His head only rose once, and sank
again, almost instantly, SO that in q
very short time he became helpless
from straneulation and soon drown-
ed. Had he retained bis senses in
the slightest degree he could have
seized the board Mr.. Coyle held out
to him, and thus saved his life.
The body was soon recovered by
means of graphing irons and remov

by PERMISSION Of the Coroner, to the
house Of Benz. Ewing, COL, where
johnson boarded. This morning an
inquest was held an a verdict ol

LONDON, July 1.-THE Pail Nal

excess Of exports over impCs.s 10 not

that always exports more goods than 1t

its debts. Whether the process OF ex-
pansion by drainage from Europe which
within the past two years has added

Union, is TO 60 on depends upon the
ability Of America to control with its

indications are that the European har-

cd States will have to face great compe-

"With an overwhelming surplus

They are just in the circumstances
where financial crisis might develop

but We are by no means certain that 1t
will develop itself then, even should
things come to the worst. With their

ling for months beyond the time when
cautious men look for trouble. Holders
Of the United States securities, however

WHAT W = EAT.

IL is growing TO be serious matter
with man what he puts in his mouth
even ifit does come from a grocery or
market house. II the revelations in re-
gard to food adulterations are to be re-
lied upon, there 10 scarcely an article on
our tables that is not q fraud and a
cheat. 1t is said that butter, cheese,
sugar, vinegar, spices OF all kinds, tea,
coffee, flour, and nearly every kind OF
baking powder Are all more or less adult
terated. They are not satisfied
with adulterating genuine articles,
but they adulterate the spuri-
Gus also. They make oleo.
margarine for butter and then adulter.
ate the oleomargarine, thus imposing
on the original fraud. Nice honey comb
has the honey extracted by an ingeni-
Gus process and the comb again filled
With glucose and sold at high price for
the genuine article. In Boston the In
speCtor declares that out Of 100000
gallons OF vinegar manufactured in that
city and sold for cider vinegar, not one.
tenth Of it is apple juice. 1t is made OF
molasses, glucose, aeetic acid, distillery
hops OF all kinds, oil OF vitriol and other
corrosive and deleterious components.
This sort OF vinegar is especially injuri-
GUS TO the stomach and bowels, produc.
ing indigestion and disrrhea, and other
wise disarranging the digestive organs.
1t is bad enough to swindle the dealer
by getting his money tor spurious ar
ticle at the rate which ought to be paid
for the genuine, but when there is add
ed to the swindle in cost, the crime OF
iujuring the consumers, the ofense be-
comes one OF such magnitude that 1t
calls for the seyerest reprobation, as
we'll as the severest penalties OF the
law.
We do know to what extent we are
being imposed upon in this locality, but
it is altogether probable that il these
authorizations are carried on all around
us to so great an extent, we are taking
in OR share OF it. 1t will be an impor-
tant subject for investigation when our
State Board OF Health is organized.

Tue EDISoS electric light is being
fairly tested in New York, by public
trial, in houses and on the streets. The
SIM SAYS the most prejudiced owner Of
Gas stock has to admit the light is beau
tiiul and brilliant. Speaking OF its use
in house, We are told:
The drawing room is lighted by a
large chandelier carrying "A dozen or
more lamps and is as bright as day. A
more brilliant and steadIer light could
not be desired. There is none OF the
flicker so frequently observed in some
of the electric lights, and which also
characterizes gas light; but the
iucandescent carbon horseshoes
Glow with aniet and steady intensity.
The electric current is turned on and
of like gas, and the instant the electri-
CITY is let in upon the carbon it becomes
brilliant. No more convenient light,
therefore, could be hal. No match is
REQUIRED to ignite 1t. Ii is clean, odor-
less, and almost without heat. The hand
may be pressed sgain,t the'glass bulbs
inside which the light glows without dis
comfort.
