FROM LONDON.
The Queen az Home---The Eortescae'
Garmoyle Breach OF Promises
Congo Treaty Again.

LONDON, Nov. 20.
The Queen has returned to Windsor Castle
from Balmoral, in excellent health.
The suit for breach of promise brought by
Miss Fortescue, actress, against Lord Gar
moyle. the Oldest son of Earl Cairns, was
begun today,
The court room was crowded with leaders
of fashionable society and stage celebrities.
Lord Gsrmoyle was not present. Charles
Russell, Q c., in opening the case for the
plaintiff, spoke in high praise of the fair
litigsnt. Sir Henry James, attorney general,
appeared for the defendant, stated that he was
willing to accept verdict of 10000 pounds
damages against his client. He declared that
there had been nothing in Lord Garmoyles s
conduct throughout the whole affair that was
unworthy of an English gentleman.
The recent official correspondence in regard
to the Congo has been published A letter
from Prince Bismarck, dated June IL, says
There is no chance that the proposed Anglo,
Portuguese treaty will be generally recogniz.
ed" In reply to this, dated June 80, Earl
Granville, British foreign secretary says
lowing TO the fundamental character of
Germany's objection, the treaty has been
abandoned. He then proposes to arrange
with Germany for a river commission. After
further negotiations, Prince Bismarck pro-
posed the calling of conference of the pow :
ers for the discussion of the whole Congo
question. Earl Granville at oace accepted
the proposal.

AGRICULTURAL INTERESTS.
Commissioner Geo. Ii. Loring Submits
His Annual Report.

WASHINGTON, Nov 20.
Hon. Geo. b, Loring, commissioner of
agriculture, has submitted his annual report
to the President. The statistical reports
published by the department are, he saws,
based on the reports of upwards of 10000
selected observers in different parts of the
country, and are much more accurate than
those of former years. With good prices the
current production of the agriculture of the
United States can be but little short of 81
600, 900, and the values are those of home
markets. The commissioner further says
The investigations of the past year show a
tendency to further increase the area Of corn
and cotton, and most of the principal crops
of the country. The wheat area is so much
beyond the requirements of consumption in
this and other countries as to depress the
price to point Unprecedented, in the recent
year favoring at certain points the use of
wheat in feeding for pork production. The
present years history of crop growth in the
statistical bureau indicates production above
the average. The cotton crop promises to
exceed 5000 900 bales. Corn apparently
averages 2G bushels per acre. which is about
the average of prior period of ten years,
giving crop not heretofore exceeded in
quantity. Wheat has made a yield of fully
l3 bushels per acre, and the product exceed
ing 5O0,000,000 bushels. The supply of
cereals average fully so bushels for each
inhabitant Potatoes of both kinds are fairly
abundant, and other products generally are
in full supply"
The labors of the bureau of animal indus
try have been mainly directed to the preven-
ton of the spread Of diseases among domestic
animals and to the acquisition of knowledge
that is of value to stock growers Fifty
thousand copies of this bureau are about
ready for distribution.
On the subject of forestry, Commissioner
Loring says: "While the destruction of our
forests is going on at a constantly increasing
and alarming rate. it is gratifying to know
that the work Of planting trees for wind
breaks and forest purposes is rapidly increas-
ing especially in some Western States and
territories. The consumption of forests for
the manufacture of lumber is increasing in
a faster ratio than is warranted by the in
crease of population. The lumber market
is largely overstocked, and the process Of
manufacture continues to be conducted in a
wasteful manner.
