ROBINSON CRUSOE's IsLAND.-If Rob
insou Crusoe were to drop in on a visit to
his island now he would be astonished at
the business DONE There are on the island
10000 head of cattle and as many sheep,
the inhabitants largely supplying the Val
parasio market The sheep are said to be
very profitable, and if Crusoe hadn't fooled
around SO much, moralizing and looking
for tracks in the sand, he would probably
have made big thing out of bis goat
farm.

New York bay never before presented such
a magnificent scene as was witnes ,ed at half
past eleven O'Clock in the forenoon of the 18th,
when the great naval fOtilla accompanying
the French national steamship, the lsere,
bearing the Bartholdi Statue of Liberty,
started from Gravesend Bay for Bedloe's
Island. The Long Island and Slater Island
shores overlooking the rendezvous of the fleet
were black with people, while tha water as
far as the eye could reach was dotted
with sailing and steam crafts of every
size and description, dressed out with
the American and French flags and their
decks crowded with eXcurSionIsts. In the
city the spectacle was almost equally as en-
livenlng. Broadway was crowded, and
along its entire course from Central Park to
the Battery bunting was displayed from the
principal business building. The city hall,
the postoflice. the custom house and all the
downtown exchanges were similarly decor
ated in honor of the event, and the roofs of
the lofty structures below Fulton street were
covered witt sightseers.
At 9 o'clock the ferryboat Atlantic landed
at the foot of Wall street and received on
board Senator Evarts, Mayor Grace and the
committees appointed to receive the statue
and welcome the french naval officers Of the

The Law Against it In New York
Declared demonstrations.

The New York court of appeals has
given a decision in the case of the People
agt. Morris Marx, which was prosecuted
as a test of chapter 202, Laws of 1854.
This act was "to prevent deception
in sales of dairy products, and section 6 pro-
hibited the manufacture out of oleaginous
substances of any compound except that pro-
duced from unadulterated milk or cream, de-
signed to take the place of butter.
Tn defendant, who was arrested in New
York for selling oleomargarine, proved on his
trial that the commodity was as wholesome as
dairy butter, but this evidence was stricken
out. This disallowance of testimony and al
legged unconstitutonality of the law, rs oppres-
slve interference with iegitimative trade. were
the bases of appeal. The Judgment Of the
general term of the supreme court, affirming
the defendants conviction under the law, is
reversed by the court of appeals, and the
above section of the act is declared unconsti-
tutional. Judge Rapello is the writer of the
opinion, in which the whole court concurs.
