MISCELLANEOUS.

For the current quarter the Pacific
Mail Directors have declared dividend of

Western Union Telegraph Company in New

Rev. d. MacGregor has returned to
Chicago from a tour of the Highlands and
islands OF Scotland, made in behalf of the
suffering crofters. He reports the people as
imbued with a new determination to obtain
their rights, and he finds the remedy for
their grievances to be an enlargement of the
crofts and readjustment of the system of
land tenure.
There is no abatement in the small
pox at Montreal, 294 deaths being reported
for the week. The disease has broken out at
ottawa, where two stricken children were
found concealed in cupboard.
There were LAG failures in the United
States reported to Brddstreets during the
week, against 1871 in the preceding week, and
234, 200, and 1877 in the corresponding weeks
of 1884, 1883, and 1852, respectively. Brad
streets Journal, in its weekly review, says of
the state of trade:
Special kilograms to Brddstreefs report no
special change in the general trade situation.
At Boston business is quiet after the late ex-
ccptional activity. In some lines IL is disap-
pointing, yet the general confidence that sales
are to increase rather than diminish remains
mistaken. The dry-goods market at present
is dull Retailers are believed to be carrying
the large volume OF goods lately shipped from
first hands, awaiting the demand for consump-
ton. There is better demand for
funds for use IN regular trade channels,
There is fair movement of wool at seaboard
markets for consumption. The larger factories
are well stocked, while the smaller ones are
buying freely for early wants. Manufacturing
is relatively active and prices are firm Holders
regard the situation confidently and are not
anxious to sell. There have been some fair
sized importations of raw wool of late. Trade
at Philadelphia is fair in some lines, but
there is no general activity. At Chicago
the volume of trade is lighter than
during last week. There is, however consider
able confidence that the upgrade movement is
to continue. There has been some depression
in feeling, owing TO the decline in the price of
wheat Reports from interior points tributary
TO Chicago are moderately favorable, and while
the demand for funds therefrom is smaller IL Is
still noticeable. There is less demand for cur
rency from New York. At Pittsburgh, Cleve-
land, Burlington 1uwa), st. Louis and st. Paul
there Is less activity In commercial circles.

The photographic Office has issued
a new map OF the Arctic region, which en-
bodies the results OF the latest explorations.
The arrangement is such that the names and
relative position OF all places around the
polar basin can be seen without turning the
map around, as is usually necessary, and
the eye is not bewildered by multitude of
meridian lines concentrating at the pole. A
very simple method of determining the lat-
tude and longitude of any point is afforded
by two lines intersecting at right angles at
the pole, along which the degrees are
marked

Experiments in Irrigation.

Some valuable experiments in irriga-
ton have recently been carried out in
India. Seevral adjoining plots of land,
similarly situated, and similar in all re-
spects as possible, were planted with
wheat, barley, and peas, and subject to
different treatment in the matter of irri-
cation, one series being irrigated once
q month, another once O fortnight, q
third once week, and fourth not at
all. AS might have been expected, the
plots not irrigated at all produced the
worst crops but the result in the other
cases was certainly curious, if not alto
gether contrary to general expectation.
In all cases the plots of land irrigated
once a month bore the heaviest crops;
next came the plots irrigated every two
weeks, and then those irrigated once a
week. With monthly irrigating, crops
averaging 53t bushels per acre were
harvested, whereas the ordinary crop in
the same locality was but lag bushels.
These experiments, besides proving the
value of irrigation in quadrupling the
yield, also afford valuable hint in the
cultivation of plants generally. for they
seem to show that-with cereals, at any
rate-it is not the frequent application
of water that is required, but its abun-
dant application at considerable inter
walls

This Is frightful. Insanity has increased
forty per cent. in a decade, and most OF the
cases are incurable. Whatever the indiyidu-
al cause may be. the fact remains that Uric
Acid blood sets the brain on IRE, destroys it's
tissues, and then comes some form OF fatal
lunacy.

years that cold was slowly bling his blood
with uric acid, and finally the deadly work
was done. The case looked hopeless, but he
happily used Warmers safe cure and recov-

ridden his blood OF all surplus uric acid, he

mind, but Il is a more terrible thing to suffer
such condition when IL can be SO easily
prevented.

Anna declining to surrender AT the

head, stating the fact that Gen. Taylor

Science and Agriculture.

A Scotch farmer writes to London
journal: During the past few years 1
have visited a good many agricultural
shows, but / have observed no i'm
provement in stock. 1 speak from a
farmers point of view, which is a pay
ing point. In the feeding and rearing
of stock we have reached the limit with
our present knowledge. No progress
in this direction is to be expected.
There is, however, much to be done
in the application of machinery.
Every year brings with it some i'm
provement, chiefly, L regret to say,
from America There is also field
almost uncultivated rich in stores of
knowledge. We have had centuries of
practical farming, but we are no near
er the solution of such problems as
rinderpest, braxy, finger-and-toe, and
clover sickness, the assimilation of
nitrogen by plants, the turnip fly, and
other insects injurious to the farmer.
If the learned people who are to as
semble in o few days at Aberdeen,
could throw any light on these ques-
tons, they would be comforting great
benefit on farmers. 1t is a pity that
there is no section for papers and DIS
cussion on agricultural science. We
shall hear good deal about germs,
atoms, molecules, the heat of the sun,
and the proper rotation of crops for
the moon, but / should like to know
if our rotation of crops has any scien-
tific basis. We have no unfriendly
feeling toward the farmers in the moon.
On the contrary, if we could get at
them we should offer to fight them.
Whatever may be the case with English
farmers, every intelligent Scotch farm
er gladly welcomes all knowledge
which is likely to be of service to him
in his work. The appreciation of some
lectures recently delivered in ,Aber-
deenshire by Mr.. Buckmaster, from
South Kensington, shows that farmers
are fully alive to the importance of
more scientific knowledge in farming.
Some of us are rather too old to begin
the study of chemistry, and, anxious
though we may be for our boys to learn
n little agricultural science, there is
nowhere for them to learn it except at
an expense far beyond the means of an
ordinary farmer. We can get Latin for
our boys in any quantity and in every
quality, in almost all schools, but
science nowhere. Ny boys leave school
at about fifteen or sixteen, utterly ig-
norant of all natural phenomena, and
fear the secondary schools we are to
have in Scotland, if not narrowly
watched, will only perpetuate this
darkness and ignorance.
