Irrigation in Australia.

ED. p. G.. ADvERTISER-Sir: Touching
the subject of irrigation in Australia,
Victoria is not the only colony that
shows enterprise in the matter. About
nine months ago, the writer communi-
Gated with Hon. S. w. Griffith, Colonial
Secretary of Queensland, informing Mr..
G.. of the great benefits derived from
artesian wells in the Hawaiian Kingdom,
and suggesting a system of well-boring
for Queensland. The Colonial Secretary
was prompt in replying, and at the same
Time sent a free cabin passage to any
practical well-borer to go down and pros
pect for water for account of the Queens
land Government.
Arrangements were accordingly made
with the well-known Mr.. J. d. Arnold,
who by the last mail from the Colonies
reports himself under a years engage
ment on acceptable terms. To all
Oueenslanders at homo and abroad, it
will be welcome news to hear of Mr..
Arnolds success in the new enterprise.
am, etc. GEORGE CAvENAGH.
P. S.-Mr. Arnold went to Queensland
well armed with testimonials from Hon.
A. F. Judd, Chief Justice, Hon. G. 7.
Gulick, Minister of Interior, Hon. j. l.
Dowsett.
Mr.. Cavenagh is an old Queensland
settler, and therefore naturally takes an
interest in his former home. We should
add, however, that artesian well-boring
is by no means novelty at the Antipodes.
The plain adjacent to the town of
Napier, in Hawkes. Bay Province, New
Zealand, was irrigated by flowing artesian
wells over fifteen years ago; artesian
wells were sunk in the city of Christ
church, on the Canterbury plains, and
elsewhere in New Zealand at an earlier
date, but in the pastoral districts OF
Australia little attention was given to this
source of water supply until lately.-ED.

WE find the following suggestive
item in the missionary Herald"
for September:
The Chinese classics have for ages been
the chief source of intellectual training for
the intelligent Chinese, and the mission
aries still feel it wise to introduce them in
a measure into the curriculum of their
schools. One successful teacher writes:
''The battle is hard one to convince the
natives that Western sciences are of more
value than their rusty classics, but it must
come in time; and for the present no educa-
ton will be respected that does not include
a fair knowledge Of the writings of Confu-
cius and Mencius. And, really, there is q
great deal Of good in them after ALL

states that the receipts for the first
eleven months Of the year were $685.

riOd Of 1884. tin order that the
receipts for the present year may

authoritative statement of the Amer
lean Board of Foreign Missions.

SATURDAY September 18th
ABOUT LAND SETTLEMENT AND THINGS

Consistency is a jewel. The weekly
organ of land mOnopolists and tax
shirkers exhausted itself recently
over an attempt to prove that the
country was being "Asiaticised;" and
when a suggestion is made that
Scotch "crofters'' might be proftably
introduced as settlers it sneers at it,
and the Government is blamed for
not doing an impossible thing. "The
Homestead law has never been acted
upon. The very paper which makes
the suggestion has declared that the
into small holdings. Let us begin
with the material we have here be-
fore we begin talking of making ex-
periments with people from a north
err climate" This is the encourage
Hent an enthusiastic colonization
proposal receives from the Gazette"
II our contemporary would prevail
upon some of its patrons, who have
vast territory in freehold and thou
sands of acres of Government land
on long leases at nominal rents,
to surrender their leases to the Gov
eminent for the purpose of promoting
small farm settlement, it might be
possible to accomplish something. If
they are not patriotic enough to do
this, let our contemporary persuade
them to cut up available parts of their
freehoIds into farm sections and sell
these at q reasonable price to men
who would cultivate the soil. This
would enable US to "begin with the
material we have here.p But if they
will hold on to the land, neither using
it for agricultural purposes themselves
nor permitting others to use it ex-
cept on payment of the most exOrbi-
tant crack rents" then, of course,
nothing can be accomplished, and
the men who cause this absolute
block of settlement will be able to
use the injury done by their own
policy as an argument against the
Government on the Homestead law.
This would be in harmony with their
character and methods from first to
last, but we shall take good care that
the voters and 1andless class will
know precisely where the blame lies.
Touching our suggestion regarding
Scotch ''crofters'' we have this
further to say, that if sheep farming
is to become a leading industry in
these Islands we must introduce men
who are accustomed to handle
sheep. Neither japanese, Portuguese
nor Chinese understand much about
sheep, the handling and care of
which are familiar TO Scottish
tenant farmers and shepherds. There
are tens of thousands of acres in these
Islands suited for sheep raising which
are now of very little value to any
one, but which might be made to add
largely to our export of wool. Why
not utilize that country, and intro
duce q stalwart race of men and
women who would do good to them-
selves and to others. But this is not
wanted by the small clique who
have had everything their own way
until lately; and the Gazette" being
their mouthpiece, naturally gives
utterance to their sentiments.

IMPORTANT TO SUGAR MAKERS.

The San Francisco HBulletinp and
New York 1Shipping List" recently

amounted to s8s176 tons, az against

A BIG SUIT IN EQITs.
A New York Ranking House Attach-
es the IeNns central.


Galveston, April ID. In the United
States circuit court here to-day very
important bill in equity was filed by
the Farmers Loan and Trust compa-
ny, of New York, against the Houston
" Texas Central railway company.
The plaintiffs sue as trustees of vari-
Gus mortgages executed by the Cen.
trail road. These mortgages cover
the Waco and Northwestern Division
and also 5000 acres of land per mile
of complete road, also covering the
main line and the Western division,
including $50 acres of land per mile
of complete road.
The bill also covers the mortgages
issued April /, 1881, covering all lands
of the said railway and all the sixteen
sections of square miles, or 1920
acres of land per mile of completed
road, on all lines of the defendant
company. II also covers all town
lots. The bill further alleges that the
defendant has deiaulted III the pay
ment of the coupon interest
upon these several mortgages
and alleges upon information that
the defendant is insolvent aud unable
TO pay It's debt aud obligations as
they annually mature. The prayer oil
the bill Is that an account be taken by
the court of the amount due plaintiffs
us such trustees that writ of iniunc-
ton be issued and that an account he
taken by the court of all money, Sc
curitics aud other considerations re-
ceived aud taken by the defendant

lands specified in bill and that re-
cciver or receivers be appointed.

Constantinople, AprIl l3.-The AT
CHAN news has greatly excited all
classes. Two days ago war was look
ed upon as certain and the idea pre-
vailed among both natives and for
eigncrs that Russia might be expected
to make II dash for the Bosphorus and
that at any moment the British fleet
might appear IN the Dardanelles.
Nothing much is thought about the
prospects Of an Anglo-Turkish alli-
ance. The sultan hcsitates to adopt
any positive compromising attitude,
being unwilling to fearlessly trust

Press agents have consequently re-
ccived instructions to spread the idea
in foreign journals that Turkey will
preserve neutrality in case of war.
Nevertheless your correspondent Is
assured in strong quarter that Turkey
will join England should war occur,
being compelled to do so by
force of circumstances. General

lowed by an English declaration

foreign diploTa lists is that matters
may be ARRANGED for the present with
the usual Gladstone timidity, but all
think that the struggle can only he
deferred. The Turkish feeling gem
orally is in favor OF an alliance with
England and the Turkish army aud
navy are longing for war. Indeed
the Turkish officers and men of either
service are burning to repay Russia
for the sutlcrings produced by the
last struggle. Circassian officers are
particularly excited at the prospect
of another campaign on the Armen-
ian frontier, N d there is talk about
the recapture of Batoum at which
place Russia is very busy. A ship
master who just arrived from there
reports the continual arrival of mill
tary stores and the construction of
redoubts. Speaking generally the
average Turkish idea is that without
an alliance with England they are lost
yet, so rudely shaken has their faith
been in England on account of the
Egyptian business that they carnot
bring themselves to credit the British
government with any good intentions
ON their behalf.

Horrible Accident In New Xork, Five
Houses Fall IN.

New York, April l3.-Eight five
story houses in Sixty-second street,
near Tenth avenue, fell in this even
ing, burying the men employed there,
and many the wOrkmen are believ-
ed to be killed, and the cries of the
injured are heard from beneath the
debris, crying for help. Up to 1889
tonight ten persons had been taken
from the ruins. They were seriously
hurt, but not fatally, and were remoy-
ed to n hospital. Gangs of men are
now working on the debris, as ii is
feared that many other workmen are
still in the ruins. The buildings were
erected last winter and reported by
the building department as beng I'M
safe. Workmen were engaged in re-
pairing their defects at the time that
the accident occurred. No mortar
was used in the construction of the
buildings, the bricks being held in
place by sand.
