We have attached one Of our clsan-
ers to Mr.. Atwater's harvester. He
Is now doing good work in Merced
county, although he Is working under
great Disadvantages. His machine
cuts fourteen foot swaih and Is run
ming over very uneven land, the
surface of which derives the name
'shog wallow" from the fact that at
about every fifly or one hundred feet
the land raises with a slope to about
FIVE feet then slopes down again,
which forms hollow. These mounds
and hollows elevate and lower the
machinery to every possible position,
yet, we separate the grain In first
class manner, taking out one sack OF
oats, one.half of sack Of gras' hop.
pers to one sack OF wheat. 1t Is
about as hard to ride the machine as
a bucklng horse, this Is what wa call
separating grain under difficulties.
You may now have some idea
what disadvantages the combined
machines have to contend with, and
you can not say too much 10 praise Of
them for they are the coming ma
chimes, being as far ahead of the
reaper and header, as the reaper and
header are ahead Of the old cradle.
A combined harvester cutting Q
swath of fourteen feet and run BY
four men and eighteen horses will

Now Mr.. Editor, figure this ex'

pense they arc put to the way they
harvest In Oregon.

Health OF Jews.

One noticeable feature about Jewish
cemeteries In the south Is the scarcity of
cholera or yellow fever. Statistics show
that fewer OF them die than any other race
from these or kindred diseases. During
the cholera scourgo in Toulon only Two
orthodox Jews died OF it., while in num-
bers they equalled fully 20 per cent of the
population. Their immunity from dis.
ease, and the certainty with which they
recover when attacted nY 1t, Is accounted
for by the simplicity of their diet. They
are very strict about following the dietary
laws prescribed by Moses. Isn't 1T . lit.
tie strange that Moses, if he was only a
historian, should have possessed knowl-
edge superior to that OF the wisest aud
best physiciars of the present day? lie

LONDON, March 16.- Mr.. Parnell, it appears
is to be attacked from an entirely new quarter.
The manifesto read by Mr.. Clancy at the meet
ing OF the nationalist section of the Dublin
Municipal Council ON Thursday last has been
submitted to the Solicitors for the Crown. The
manifesto was an expression of the attitude
proper to be observed by the National League
toward the Prince of Wales during his coming
visit to Ireland. 1t advised Nationalist to
maintain an attitude OF reserve, to make no
hostile demonstrations and no expressions Of
welcome, and declared that the visit of the
Princess of Wales to Ireland was inopportune
while an unspeakably indecent coterie remain
ed in possession of Dublin Castle. When Mr.
Clancy read the manifesto he announced that
it was from Mr.. Parnell and in Mr.. Sections
handwriting. John Dillon denied the authen-
ITCHY of the document. On Saturday Mr..
Parnell admitted that Mr.. Clancy's statement
was correct and explained that the document
was prepared for Mr.. Cancy's personal direc-
tion and use and not for publication at the
time, as manifesto. On Friday the National
League issued a manifesto embodying the
sentiments contained in the document read by
Mr.. Clancy, and of which the latter was ap-
parently the draft. The whole matter has
been placed before the Crown Solicitors, and
these lawyers have to-day rendered an opinion
that the manifesto of Thursday is a treason
able document. 1t is believed that the govern
ment will base some severe action upon the
opinion of the Solicitors, and its action is
awaited with interest.

Affairs OF the Defuncf Marine Bank.
NEW YORK March 16.-The trial of James
d. Fish, ex-presdent of the defunct Marine
Bank, continued today in the United States
Court. The croSs-examination of Nathan d.
Daboll, ex-assistant cashier, was resumed. He
identified the loan tickets and handwriting on
the envelopes as that of Fish's. Previous to
making the loans on nominal coilaterals, the
witness understood through conversation with
Fish, that these contract loans so-called were
to be secured by collateral which was to be
held by the firm of Grant & Ward. All loans
were made with this distinct understanding
Mr. Ward was present when the witness mad q
the enquiry of Fish as to when the loans were
to be paid. When asked to state the conversa-
ton more explicitly, the witness said that Mr..
Fish said: Hereafter these loans will be made
In different way from that in which it has
been DONE" Mr.. Ward said: Securities will
be pledged for these loans but, as you know
we have very large transactions, sometimes of
half million dollars, with banks, at a time,
and as loans are liable to be called at any time
1t will be more convenient for us to retain
them. We have plenty of securities and it is
only question of turning them over" The
witness acquiesced in the arrangements and
afterwards acted accordingly.
After recess the defence undertook to show
that loans were made to Grant & Ward on
contracts.
District Attorney Root-There never were
any contracts.
Mr.. Clark-No, perhaps not; but we intend
to show that everybody except Ferdinand
Ward believed there were contracts.

LAWLESS LEGISLATORS.
A DisgrReefnl Scene in the Tex as Legis-
lature.

Iature.
GALVESTON, ar.16--An extraordinary scene
occurred in the Texas Senate Saturday and for
time free fight seemed imminent. Pistols
and knives were drawn and but for the timely
entrance OF Lieutenant Governor Gibbs bloody
work would undoubtedly have ensued. The
Senate had under discussion bill aboishing
the Office of commissioner of insurance statis-
tics and history, Senator Houstan of Berar
county, warmly opposed the adoption Of the
Dill while Senator Davis of Cook county favor
cd it. In the discussion Of q gambling bill
lsst Thursday night Davis had denounced the
opponents of the bill who were led by Sena tor
Houston, as a "pack of drunken fools.' Hous-
ton rejoined that Davis was a ''liar." Sena-
tors aud by-standers interfered and the affair
was adjusted for the time being, but bad
feeling had been aroused between the two men
and it broke fosth with renewed violence in
Saturdays discussion when Houston referred
to Davis as "lank, scrawney, stalking dys-
peptic, ja0ndiced thing that took occasion to
carp st everything not ordained to suit him."
Thls opened trouble in earnest. Coward" :"
cur, ''liar," etc., were banded back and
forth, and the Senate became beer garden.
Houston finally walked into the lobby inVi ting
Davis to follow him. Davis replied that he
did! not leave home to fight a backgHard. Any
gentleman conld gstsuch an opportunity in any
town in Texas. He also said that if Hons ton
wanted to fight he knew where to fight him.
Better counsel at last prevailed and both Sem
ators apologized. Those who know the men
are fearful that the eballition will have trag-
ic ending as both beligerents are high st rung
and OF unquestioDed courage.

A sharp Trick by scotch Publishers.
OTTAWA, March 16.-It has been discovered
BY the Halifax customs authorities that a
large consignment of Biographies from the
firm of Thomas Nelson & Son, Edinburgh, are
fraudulently entered under the clause in the
tariff act of 1888, which permits books over
seven years old to be entered free. These ge-
ographies had tho date "I876'' printed on the
title page. but it was found that they contained
the figures of the census of Canada taken in
1881. 1t has been also discovered that in other
school publications sent to New Brunswick,
and which also bore the date of 1876, the origi-
nal title page had been removed and new
one pasted in, so that the books might be
passed through the customs under the free
clause.
