ELEVENTH ANNUAL INTER
STATE EXPOSITION OF
CHICAGO, 1881.

Will open September S and close
Oct. 20. AS usual all railroad and
steamboat transportation lines will
put their rates to Chicago and return
on hard-pan basis, selling coupon
tickets to the Exposition. On many
of the lines, gentlemen, familiar with
the business, are making arrange
ments to run general excursions,
which have heretofore been pr ofitable
to those managing them, and cheap
ened the cost of transportation to the
excursionists.
AS to the Exposition itself, we are
assured that extraordinary efforts and
very large expenses have been made
by the managers 10 render it in all
important departments the most in
structive, and far the most attractive
display of its class in America. The
local pride of Chicago is fully en-
listed in the work and 1t is safe to
say that no visitor will be disappoint-
ed.

LOYAL SOCK COAL.

From the Elmira Advertiser, Dec. 8. 1877.
A very large proportion Of people who
use Coal persist in the opinion and belief
that the harder the coal the more heat il
will produce, which lie not always true,
for science and experience demonstrate
that the coal containing the largest
amount of carbon will generate the most
heat, carbon being the sole property from
which heat is obtained and analysis shows
that some of the hardest Anthracite Goals
contain less carbon than some of the softer
ones.
Take for instance the Loyal Sock Coal
This coal is the softest of all anthacite
Goals and yet the PUREsT anthracite yet
discovered. 1t contains 80 per cent pure
carbon, which is more than any Of the
others, except the mountain Lehighs, and
cery few of those exceed it, while the
Loyal Sock contains neither sulpher nor
iron, and consequently contains no chink.
ers, and its formation is such that it is
easily mined and comparatively free SLATE.
Another beauty of it is, that it all burns to
ashes and holds fire until all is consumed,
doing away with sitting ashes or picking
out slate and clinkers. Coal consumers
cannot afford neglecting to try it. 23-25

THE LOTTERY BUSINESS.
II 10 understood that the postmaster gem
eral has under consideration some more
radical measures than heretofore adopted
for the suppression Of the lottery business
In this country. 1t Is not unlikely that he
will give some attention to the proposition
to forbid the circulation through the mails
OF newspapers which contain advertise

DAMAGE BY RECENT FRosTs.
Telegraphic communication with state
agents up to 8 o'clock Wednesday after
noon shows that the recent frosts damaged
corn north of the fortieth parallel. The
Ohio agent places the damage In that state
at 20 per cent. The Indiana agent esti-
mates the loss in that state at 10 to 20 per
cent. In the northern section and in the
middle belt. The loss Is heavy In Wiscon-
sin and Minnesota. There Is also some in
jury In NewYork and Pennsylvania. While
the damage cannot yet be clearly determin-
ed, 1t Is certain that the frosts have already
reduced the general average below 50,
though much of the heaviest corn of the
west Is beyond serious injury.
The condition of wheat where harvested,
as reported In these returns, averages SO,
which indicates a product of II per cent.
less than the yield Of last year, or loss of
SO, OOO, 600 bushels. The crop of oats will be
large, the general average being 90. The
promise for potatoes Is good and is repre-
sented by 95. three points higher than the
reported average in September. 1882.
Clarence Hite, one of the Missouri

TEMPERANCE.

Some one hundred and fifty of our most

hundred of our best citizens crowded into
Good Templars' Hall Monday evening to
attend an open meeting of the Lodge.
The occasion proved to be an enjoyable
and profitable one indeed. Worthy Chief
Templar e. l.. Brewer occupied the chair
and conducted business. Excellent music
enlivened the exercises. Rev. Geo. III.
Wilson spoke of the power of the pledge
in the strength and tone it gives the char
acter. He was loudly applauded. Rev.
Reed showed the progress of temperance
as the pledge two hundred years ago only
required men to keep within Is drinks a
day; and until recently temperance meant
only moderation in the use of intoXicants;
but now the pledge means total abstinence
He said the watchword among temperance
people now is total abstitence in theory
and prohibition in practice He hoped he
might live to see liquor traffic buried deep
and forever
The chief feature of the meeting is to be
be mentioned Miss Rowell recited two
pieces styled respectively "How he Saved
ST. Michacl's Church." and the Last
Hymn" The performances held and
thrilled the audience. The most hearty
demonstrations of approval followed the
recitations. Altogether long step for
ward was taken in the temperance work.

FOREIGN Mail Matters.

CHICAGO, April 14.-Robert J..
Creighton of San Francisco, special
Postal Commissioner from New Zea-
land, passed through this city on his
way to Washington to-day.
It is stated that the Australian
mail contract with the Pacific Mail
steamship company expires next
November, and it was extremely
doubtful if it would be renewed un-
less this government made reasona-
BILE concessions as to the cost of trans
portation. At present 500, 200 is ex-
pected from New Zealand and Sgd
ney for railroad transportation across
the American continent annually,
although it was understood when the
present contract system was nego-
tiated that no extra charge would be
made. The British Colonies pay the
Pacific mail company 1915, 900 year
subsidy to carry mails from San
Francisco to Auckland and Sidney,
the steamers at Honolulu, with tha
American mail, calling for it on
each return voyage, for which there
as no extra charge. It is also carried
cree, the United States retainlug
postages. 1t is intimated that unless
this country can extend more
liberal terms and free transportation
to this country in exchange for ocean
service and also furnishing quicker
transportation across the continent,
the present system will be abandon
ed, and the mails carried by way of
Suez.
