Sudden Checking of Perspiration.

A Boston merchant, in "lending a
hand" on board one Of his ships on a
windy day, found himself at the end of
an hour and half pretty well exhausted
and perspiring freely. He sat down to
rest, and, engaging in conversation,
time passed faster than ho was aware of.
In attempting to rise he found he was
unable to do so without assistance. He
was taken home and put to bed, where
he remained two years and for long
time afterward could only hobble about
with the aid of crutch. Less expos

go vigorous. resulted in Inflammation of

Wheat, Oats and Tobacco injured by Rain,
While Corn Is Backward bnt Prom
isiDg.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Aug. 17.-In converse
tion with farmers from different parts of the
state reporter learns that the crop prospects
are not near so encouraging as they were
month ago. The general complaint is of too
much rain. In many districts of the state
lying east of the city, the creeks and small
streams have been over their banks and whole
fields OF grain and tobacco have
been partly or wholly destroyed. 1t is
the general opinion that the yield of wheat
and oats will be short of an aver age. The
outlook for corn is somewhat better, but.
as much depends on September,i it is yet early
to speak with any degree Of certainty. Early
frosts are now most feared, but If they should
not occur Indications are that the crop will
be up to an average. In many parts of the
state tobacco has suffered from wet and in
sects 10 such an extent thatin many places not
more than five eights or three -fourths of an
average yield will be realized, and the crop
will not only be light in quantity but inferior
in quality. The bright promises of large
crop. that were so encourag-
ing short time back, have
continued rains in many localities have beaten
plants into the ground to such an extent as to
materially degrade the quality of the staple
that will be gathered. From reports obtained
through conversation with half dozen
planters it appears that tobacco has suffered
more than any other crop and calculations
that were predicted Of an average yield have
formed the reporter, however, that there was
considerable of last years crop still held in
first hands and the deficiency this year will
not materially affect the market.

MISSISSIPPI IMPROVEMENT.

The Com mission Makes Some Changes
and Complete the Allotments Under the
Appropriation.
NEW YORK, Aug. 1S.-The Mississippi
river com mission met to-day at army head
quarters. Another appeal was made by the
Vicksburg delegation towards securing, If
possible, certain amount OF money, $780,
GOO, to carry on the work of i'm
provement there. They seemed anxious
that dredging of the canal and basin
in front of the elevator and levee should be
carried out. The matters were postponed for
the present. The commission decided to re-
commend the continuation and protection of
Delta point. The allotmeEts made Yesterday
were reconsidered and few amendments
made, the principal of which was the transfer
of 100000 each from the allotments for
New Madrid and Plum Point, and $4,000
from that of Lake Providence to the unal-
lotted balance. The allotments for theee
places as they now stand are New Madrid,
$700, 600; Plum Point 100000 and Lake
Providence S650,000. The other allotments
remain as before, for Memphis harbor and
work, $500, COO; closing gaps in levees 81 ,300,-
600, and contingent fund $47S,O00. This
makes up the total allotment of 81 ,12S, 600.
The commission recommended to the war
department that immediate preparations be
made to keep open the mouth OF the Red river
by bridging as heretofore at low water. The
next meeting of the commission will be in st.
Louis early In September.

ALEXANDRIA, Aug. 18.-The enemy seems

or nothing to improve them. A rebel official
states that their forces number $4,000 regu-
lars, 10000 militia, and $4,000 armed Bedou-
ins. They claim to have %, 600 men at Kafr.

transports. The British iron clads with Egypt
ian and foreign men-of-war here fired salutes

perOr Francis Joseph of Austria. A seven

Dastsrdly Attempt TO Wreck q Large Ex-
eursion Train.
PITTsBURG Il, Aug. 1S.-One of the most das-
tardly and cold -b'ooded attempts to wreck
train was made last night at the first trestle
this side of Allequippi station, on the Pitts.
burgh & Lake Erie railroad. At Allequippi
yesterday there was a picnic which was at.
tended by some thousand or more men, women
and children, filling some halfdozen coaches,
On the return from Allequippi the
train was going at a rapid rate.
Just before entering the first trestle
the engineer discovered large beam Law
across the track. The discovery was made
just in time to enable him to stop the train.
Had his attention been directed in another
direction but for a moment before he saw the
obstruction across the track, the train would
have been precipitated to the ground below.
distance of forty feet, and with this precipi-
tation there would have been terrible loss of
life. Who put the obstruction on the track,
or the motive that tempted the fends to en-
gage in such an attempt
at wholesale murder, is
but what the beam was laid across the track
for the express purpose of wrecking that par.
ticular train. The excitement produced By
the discovery among the passengers was SO
great that for the rest of the trip there was
much less joy than there had been. The rail.
road authori les have offered a reward of $500
for Information which will lead to detection
of the would-be train wreckers.

experience was duplicated.
The grasshoppers had visited the wheat
fields OF a certain farmer, but had not done
very great damage and had passed unmolested
the crops of neighbor half.mile distant.
At Mandan long drive was taken through
the fields, and the corn, wheat and oats prom
ised excellent crops. Some stalks from a
field OF high corn were gathered to
take to New York, that the name Of
champion liar" might not be mercilessly be-
slowed by the old folks at home.
A remarkable sight was one field of oats
which the owner had neglected to harrow
after sowing. The land was prairie that had
barely been broken, and the belief Of all who
knew the circumstances was that the farmer
would get nothing. But that man will get
from that field fifty bushels of oats to the acre.
The country is getting well stocked with
agricultural implements. Coal is expensive,

A STEP FORWARD.
The st. Paul Globe to be Enlarged to
an Eight Page Paper.
Subscriptions Received at Present
Rates Until Date Of Enlargement.

The GLOBE has the pleasure of an
nouncing that about September 1st it will
appear as an eight-page paper, exactly
double the present regular size. The sheet
will be cut, folded and pasted, making
all pages easily accessible for the reader.
The necessary machinery and equip
ment for this advancement is now en-
route from the East and will reach st.
Paul during the current week. The en-
largement will follow as soon as the new
outfit can be put in place.
SPECIAL TELEGRAPH WIRE.
In addition to the above the GLOBE has
secured a special telegraph wire to
Chicago, New York and Washington,
which will be exclusively and entirely at
the service of this paper. Without in
dulging in details or promises, the
GLOBE will simply state that when these
plans are perfected it will be second to
no newspaper IN the west. VI the cor
rectness of this claim the public will soon
be able to judge.
SPECIAL SUBSCRIPTION OFFER.
The increased size, news expense, etc.,
will, of course, necessitate an advance of
subscription rates, such as are usually
adopted by quarto papers. We will,
however, accept subscribers until the
date of enlargement for periods not ex-
ceeding six months, at our present regu-
lar price Of sirty cents per month, for six
issues per week, or seventy cents per
month including the SUNDAY GLOBE.
This is rare opportunity to secure an
eight page newspaper for six months, or
less, at the price of four page sheet.

The Labor of Anttorshtp.

David Livingstone said: "Those who
have never carried book through the
press can form no idea of the amount of
toll it involves. The process has in
creased my respect for authors and au
thoresses a thousand fold. l
think 1 would rather cross the African
continent again than undertake to write
another book"
"For the statistics of the negro popu
lation of South America alone," says
Robert Dale Owen, 81 examined more
than $50 volumes"
Another author tells us that he wrote
paragraphs and whole pages of his book
as many as forty and fifty times.
1t is said of one of Longfellow's poems
that it was written in four weeks, but
that he spent six months in correcting
and cutting it down.
Bulwer declared that he had rewritten
some of his briefer productions as many
as eight or nine times before their publi-
cation.
One of Tennyson's pieces was rewritten
fifty times.
John Owen was twenty years on his
Commentary on the Epistle to the He
brews;" Gibbon, on ellis Decline and
Fall, ;" twenty years; Adam Clark, on his
Commentary, twenty-six years.
Carlyle spent fifteen years on his
"Frederick the Great"
A great deal of time is consumed in
reading before some books are prepared.
George Eliot read 1000 books before she
wrote Daniel Deronda. Allison read
1000 books before he completed his his
tory. 1t is said of another that ne read
20, 600 books, and wrote only two books.
Some write out of full soul, and it
seems to be only small effort for them
to produce great deal. This was true OF
Emerson and Harriet Martineau. They
both wrote with wonderful facility. These
"moved on winged utterances; they
threw the whole force of their being into
their creations"
Others wait for moods, and then ac-
comrlish much. Lowell said:
"Now, I've notion, If poet
Beat up for themes, Lis voice will show it.;
I wait for subjects that hunt me,
By day or night won't let me be,
And hang about me like curse,
Till they have made me into verse;"
