6,000,0 900 miles. The census Of 1880
shows an expenditure in the United
States Of $40, 629, 900 for building and
rsnairing fences in the year 1879.
The States reporting the largest out
lays are: Illinois, S5,925, 429; Iowa,
sl.678,773; Missouri, s4,6l4, 416; Ohio,
1865, 063; Pennsylvania, $5,507 ,456,
and other States in proportion. But
these figures include the new wire
fences as we'll as the old wooden ones.
There were about 10000 miles Of
plain wire fence in use before the in
vention of the barbed pattern, while Of
the latter 100000 miles have been
erected. In 1881, 10000 miles Of barb
fences were put up. at cost OF Sic, :
100000. The largestinclosed. pasture
in the world is said TO be the famous
Maxwell grant, in New Mexico, on
which over 200 miles of wire fence are
in uae, and 700,0 acres held in one
Enclosure. A wire fence manufacturer
not long ago received single order
for 300 miles of barb wire fencing to
build 100 miles of fence on tract in
Oregon.

of To a small tail. The back of the
fish is dark gray and brownish color,
slightly notified and studded with
sharp, thorn-like protuberances. The
under side of the fish presents a most
curious appearance, being colored and
shaped from the neck down the entire
body like human body. The thorax
is rib-marked, and the abdomen is
singularly mau-like, and the resem-
blance to the human organization is
very remarkable. Tho novelty and
rarity of the specimen drew to the

Of scientists.
Charles Wolcott Brooks informed
the Call reporter sent to make the
fsh's acquaintance that the one
brought in by the Italians is a very
rare specimen. 1t has heretofore been
scientifically classed, but not generally
known as personal acquaintance, so
to say, by even the most favored few.
Mr.. Brooks stated that the squatina,
speaking oft in a friendly manner, is
. habitue of very deep water, where it
pursues the very pleasant pastime Of
feeding on founders and soles. I'm
like San Francisco bon yivants, the
squatina is never forced to accept a
slice Of sturgeon for sole and pay two
bits for it. Yet the squatina appears
capable of mastering even whole
sturgeon, having true assure mouth
fracturing its enormous head from the
two joints where its ears should have
been set.

IMMIGRATION.
IFS Sources aud Magnitude-IntO
the Northwest.

New York SUM-
The volume Of immigration con-
tinues to be greater this year than
last, though in 1881 its magnitude had
never before been equalled. The
total number Of immigrants landed at
Castle Garden during January, Feb
ruary and March, exceeded the ar
rivals for the corresponding months
last year by over twenty-three thou
sand. This is an increase Of over
fifty per cent. The indications are,
therefore, that we shall receive over
half million immigrants at New
York in 1882.
The demand Tor steerage passage
from Europe is now SO enormous that
the steamship lines must tax their
facilities to the utmost to meet it.
Their regular vessels will not be
enough to bring over the waiting
throng, and additional steamers will
have to be chartered or Withdrawn
from other service to furnish the
required amount of transportation
Passage tickets in great numbers have
been sent abroad from this country,
and the desire for emigration was
never before so strong. Even Ger
many, from which the exodus was SO
vast last year, will send over still
more of its population this year. The
largest proportionate increase prom
Uses 10 be from that country. liz
January and February the arrival o.
aliens from Germany aggregated TO-.
1923, against 1854 from England, and
1893 from Ireland
The favOrite season for emigration
from Ireland, however, has not yef
core. 1t begins in May, during which
month the arrivals from that island
are always the most numerous. Yet
asa whole, the Irish emigration vii
of course fall far below that from
Germany. The arrivals at Castl
Garden from Germany last year werl
nearly two hundred thousand, from
Ireland less than seventy thousand.
1t is suggestive circumstance tina
while the emigration from the Britisl
Islands was greater in 1881 than eve
before, the years 1853 and 1854 alon
excepted, the increase over 1880 wa
in English and Scotch emigration, no
in that from ireland, where there wa
an actual decrease as compared wit
1880. The emigrants of British an
Irish origin only numbered 90 ,542 i
1880, and 243, 002 in 1881.
Late cable news says the exodu
from the overcrowded districts {
England to the Canadian Northwei
has fairly commenced, and give

anything previously known. So grei
