In its quota of unkind remarks about

TO belong to the other side of the

that Mr.. Sargent has insulted the
German Court by making some unpro-
fessional criticisms on Bismarck's
Older interdicting the sale of American
pork In Germany, and argues that he
should therefore be recalled. The
editor Of the Siteer State must know
that be has given circulation to q
gross perversion of facts. Mr.. Sargent,
in the exercise of the duties for which
he Is paid $17,500 per annum, com
municated to the State Department
at Washington certain facts and opin.
ions that he Reasonably supposed his
Government should be in possession
OF. The State Department, with very
apparent disregard Of diplomacy and
even courtesy, gave Mr.. Sargent's ideas
to the press, thus placing him in a
very unpleasant predicament. He did
his duty and the Department failed to
follow his example. That is all there

Mr.. Gladstone offered Clerks Sit

A curious adventure once occurred
in the London offices of the late w.
Lindsay. merchant shipowner and NJ,
p, There one day entered brusque,
but wealthy shipowner of Sunderland,
inquiring for Mr.. Lindsay. As Mr.,
Lindsay was out, the visitor was
requested to wait in an adjacent room,
where he found person 5usily en-
gagged in copying some figures. The
Sunderland shipowner paced the room
several times, and took careful notice
of the writer's doings, and at length
said to him, "Thou writes bonny
hand, thou dost." ~ am glad you
think so,"was the reply. "Ah thou

he was much obliged for the offer, and
would wait till Mr., Lindsay returned,
whom he would consult upon the sub
ject. Accordingly, on the return of
the latter, he was informed of the
shipowners tempting offer Very

sorry to stand in your way. One hun

How Long Would II Take 10 Fill the

In view of the recent project to fill
up the Desert of Sahara by connecting
it,with the Mediterranean Sea, a CORE
spondent, L. L. B. writes to us fnclosing
afew figures, the results of some
calculations.
According TO the latter it would re
quire 1000 years forthe waters from the
Mediterranean to fill the valley of the
Jordan, which is 1000 feet below the
former, the water to Aow through a
passage 100 feet wide by 25 feet deep
with velocity Of miles an hour,
With a channel 100times this capatity
it is possible, he says, to limit the
period of filling to 40 years. At the
same rate it would take 10000 years
to fill up the Caspian Sea to the sea
level, and thousands of years to fill up
the Sahara.-Scient1ts Amertcals.

Kerosene to KIN Ingocts.-An Emnls.

Kerosene to Kill Insects.-An Emulsion,
Since the Illuminating oil obtained from
petroleum, known in this country as kero.
sene, and in England as parailine oil, came
into general use, it has been employed with
variable success as an insectcide. That it
would destroy insect life was long ago estab
'lished; that 1t would also destroy plant life
was sometimes demonstrated in a manner
more convincing than pleasant The oil in
its concentrated form, can be tolerated by
but few plants. The first improvement in
its use was to add very small quantity TO
IA bucket Of water, enough to make but a
mere film upon the surface: then diiluse il
through the water by violent stirring, and
apply before the oil and water had time 10
separate. This answered fairly well, but
was troublesome. The next step was to d.
vide the kerosene, not by dissolvlng it, but
by diiinsing it in The form Of an emulsion.
1t is well known that the oils may be
suspended in water by means OF gum sugar,
etc, and may be kept thus for some hours
or even days. 1t has been discoyered tn. t
milk, either fresh or soured, is convenient
medium to unite kerosene and water. Mix
together kerosene aud half as much milk.
stirring them thoroughly to form cream
like mixture. When the two are SO COM
pletely united that no oil is visible, dilute
the mixture with twelve times its bulk Of
water, adding the water gradually,and stir
ring thoroughly. This emulsion has been
found especially useful in the treatment Of
the various scale insects, so dilicult to de-
stroy by ordinary insecticides, and is used
for various other insect pests For trees use
syringe or force pump, and for house
plants, often injured by scale insects apply
with a sponge or swab.-American Agricul-
turiat.
