WHAT ENGLISH FARMERs WANT.

WHAT ENGLISH FARMERS WANT.
 English tenants have suffered some if not as much as Irish tenants, and what has been done for Irishmen by the passage of the Land act has naturally encouraged English
 men to hope and ask for relief. The argu- ment Is that what is good for Irish tenants must be good for English tenants also, and that if the principle of the Land act is sound it should be applied to England. The Eng
 fish tenant farmers have begun their agita- tion in quiet way. In numbers they are
 formidable and will make themselves felt as
 voters, besides receiving the support of the
 employed classes generally. The tenants
 have formed Farmers Alliance and they
 make the following demands, among others
 First, that an outgoing tenant must be com
 pensated by his landlord for any improve ment of any kind, :'whereby the letting value
 of the land is increased" Secondly that the compensation for any improvement claimed by tenant 'tis to be measured by the amount which person of adequate means can be found to offer in consideration of being admitted as his successor. D Thirdly, that tribunals shall be created to decide upon the responsibility and good faith of the per son who is willing to pay for the tenant right and fix the compensation to the outgoing ten ant accordingly. Then the other man would step into his place on the old terms of rent the land courts and not the landlords hay ing full control of the matter. To be sure, the landlord has one alternative. He can pay his tenant the entire claim for tim at the end of the lease and be rid of him, and install man of his own Sc lection as successor. But in this case the landlord is at the mercy of the outgoing ten ant, as in the other case he is at the mercy of the land court. Another provision of the act forbids any raising of the rent unless, at least year before the termination of the old case, the landlord shall notify the tenant of the increased rent required and of fer to take him at that rate for term of not less than seven years. And even then il would remain for the land court to determine whether the rent should be raised.
 This act is to be pressed on Parliament, but it's passage is very doubtful Wise English men will want to see how the experiment now making in Ireland turns out before try ng another like it in England

Twenty Miles of Whales.
Novel Sights Seen from the Deck Of the Steamship Newport.
 From the Nev York Times I

Novel Sights Seen from the Deck Of the Steamship Newport.
 From the New York Times1
 The steamship Newport, of Wards Line, which is now having her bottom scraped and painted on the dry dock at the foot of Mar ket street, had an unusual experience during her recent outward trip to Havana She sailed from this port on Thursday, October 27, and before daylight the next morning she was off the Capes of Delaware. At about 8 o'clock, when she was steaming at the rate of l5 miles per hour, she ran into an immense school of whales 20 miles long andsa quarter of mile wide. The animals were of all sizes and dlsported themselves in the water as if enjoying it. Suddenly the ship shook from stem to stern as she struck monster about 60 feet long which was attempt ing to cross the path of the New port. The whale was cut in halves, which passed astern on either side, while the water was dyed red with his blood The steamer came to a standstill, and her stem was examined. It was found to have escaped in- jur but the steering geer was slightly dam aged. This was soon repaired, and the New port proceeded, but the passengers were not delighted with the whales as they had been before the shock. The sight of the mons- ter's head as it shot upward from the water had been anything but pleasant to them. Ten minutes after the vessel started up there was another and heavier shock, which almost threw the passengers from their feet. An other whale had been cut ih two. The body of this animal passed under the vessel, and struck the proI eller with great violence The engineer rushed on deck, imagining that the ship had struck submerged wreck Captain Sundberg ordered the course of the steamer changed, and she soon ran out of the trou- olesome whales. The oldest sea-going men on the Newport, and some of them had been on whaling vessels, could not remember such an experience.

An Abundant Mushroom Crop.


 The unusual abundance of mushrooms In a subject for discussion among the market men. The cultivation of these fungi has for several years past been profitable business to quite large number of individuals who have ground prepared and from these gar dens have the markets generally been sup piled. Notable among those who have made business is MT. Peter Guigan, whose grounds and pits are located at Uniontown, and have heretofore been fully described in the IStdr The unusual abundance of these fungi for sale in the market at this time, however, is not due to the efforts of those who make mushroom cultivation business, but they are gathered by country people miles away from the city, who bring them here by the barrel-full in some cases. The country men otate that the fields and pastures are full of them. Yesterday the Centre market was full of them, the market people saying that they never saw so many of them in one day. The consequence was that the price much below what they usually bring. The usual price for the cultivated mushroom ranges from 15 cents to 75 cents per pound, accord ing to the demand for them; but the spon- taneous growth over the country fields has had the effect of bringing the price of the cultivated one down to 15 to 20 cents per pound, and those brought in by the country men are cents and 10 cents quart, already peeled for use. The unusual growth is at- tributed to the long drought followed by the copious rain.of last week on the warm ground They are found in rich meadow land or pas lures where stock has been ranging.

How to Enjoy Venice.


 From Milan to Venice is a railroad jour- ney of few hours. and therefore many who get as far as the former city drift to the lat ter before going home. An Illusion exists that Venice is unbearably hot before October. As a rule it is cool during the latter half of September, except during the midday sun, when the town is reserved, as the Italians say, for dogs and Englishmen. To enjoy Venice it is necessary to have already seen the sights, for there is so much to see that the ardent traveller, resolved to lose nothing, and pressed for time, leads the life of slave -hurrying from church to church, and from palace to palace, until in the evening he goes to bed as dizzy as though he had been look ing for hours through kaleidoscope. I sit and watch these laboring devotees of onane GdntrGTI. Directly they have swallowed their breakfasts they are off in gondola with Murray or Baedeker in their hands. They get the porter of the hotel to give tte1 gondolier a list of the sights to which they wish to be taken. stEcco, sIgnor, says the gondolier as he brings them to the steps of church after church. Open goes the guide book, and they stare at what they are told to stare and then are off Tn few minutes to another church. At about l o'clock they re- turn to lunch. During the meal they con- pare notes with others who have passed the morning in the same fashion, and then re- embark to do after the meal what they did before it. The one in the evening who has worked through the greatest number of churches and palaces IS the hero of the mo- ment This surfeit of sightseeing may be pleasure but it is not my notion of it. No; in the morning go to the Lido; there bathe in the sea- and take breakfast After break fast stroll into the Piazza of St. Marc or pot ter through the strange little alleys in the interior of the town toward the Rialto. About midday take grdzait0 and little pastry at Florian's, finishing up with cup of black coffee. This sight meal ought, with cigar cite or two, to occupy at least an hour. Then in the afternoon go in @ gondola to some one particular palace or church, inspect it leisurely, and afterward tell the gondolier to row you about until dinner. After dinner go again to the Piazza, drink another cup of coffee, and listen to the band. At about 10 o'clock get into gondola, and make the gondolier row you about the Lagoons, land ing you at midnight at your hotel steps, when it is about time to go to bed. Venice in autumn is--even, more than the Lake of Como-the paradise of dIce .far aieate, and the gushing and rushing tourist, if he needs gush and rush, would do well to eschew it. sss&as

ing October Mir. Hobbs bought and sold co., GOO, GOO bushels of corn, the largest grain deal ever made or conceived by one man or
 firm. He signed checks for $10, 1000, 900
 while making this deal. The chief point in this connection is that during October he had some 5000, ,O0o bushels of corn ready for shipment East. He told the vessel men he would give them all they could do for the rest of the fall, offering them three cents a bushel to carry the corn to Buffalo. The vessel men held of for three and half cents, and after consulting together peremptorily declined his offer. Their decision was mis- take. Within an hour the railroads learned of it and offered to carry the corn to New York for seven cents, which sum was to in- clude the three cents terminal charges. It was an unprecedented offer, and was imme- diately taken. The vessel men have since come down to three cents two cents, one and half cent, one cent, and even offered vessels free, so as to have ballast, and are now stripping for winter, having refused work enough to occupy every vessel on the lake till winter.

A Carnivorous Parrot.


 There is now in the ''Zoo'' very remarka- bIe bird, the Nestor Notabilis, or Mountain Ksa of New Zealand. It is 8 parrot of strong frame and powerful bill and claws, which were used like those of all parrots for obtaining vegetable diet until the colonists introduced sheep and pigs. As soon as this was done, the Kea seems to have abandoned vegetable food and to have taken entirely to flesh eating He attacks sick or dying disabled sheep, and with his powerful cut ting beak opens a passage through the back and eats the intestines. Even healthy ami Nmals are sometimes assailed by the Nestdf Notabilis, and there are sheep-runs in New Zsaland where considerable losses have been incurred through those strangely degenerated birds The specimen in the Geological Gar densgave as much trouble to capture as an eagle, ,tearing the clothes of the shepherd who knocked it down while bouncing on lamb, and lacerating his hands The Kea scorns cooked meat, biscuits, fruit or seeds, and likes nv mutton better than any food. He will teafthe skin and flesh from sheep's head after thS furious fashion of a vulture- leaving nothing but the bare skull. He at one time holdsS She morsels in his lifted claw, after the style of parrots, and at another grips them undeS his feet while rending with his beak like A hawk This is very cu- rious example of change of habit, for there is every reason to believe that before sheep and pigs were introduced into New Zealand the Kea was as frugivorous in it's meals as most, if not all, other parrots. He will now eat pork and beef as well Gs mutton, and has hecome. in fact, utterly and hopelessly car nivorous.
