a cable dispatch from london

a cable dispatch from London
says: ''In spite of the ugly look of
things, few seriously expect war
with Russia. The language of the
British Ministers alone ought to be
enough to prove this. They speak
in a manner indicating that they
prefer to go to war rather than al
low Russia to advance further into
Afghanistan They must, therefore,
feel sure that Russia will decline the
challenge. Their main reliance is in
the confident hope that Russia is
hopelessly embarrassed by the want
Of money; in the fact of the Cars
dread Of the Nihilists, and in the in
complete railway communications in
Asia. Moreover, Russia must first
fight the Afghans, and bitter expe-
rience has taught the English that
the Afghans are doughty oppon-
ents." The Russian embassy in
London scout the idea of war. 1t
has always been Russian policy,
says an exchange, to make a number
Of feints years before she began the
actual conquest of country, as in
the case Of Bulgaria and other Turk
ish provinces. Against this view of
the matter, however, there remains
the fact that the Russian advance
column is in rife-shot Of the out
posts Of the Afgnans, who are noto-
riously aggressive, and have become
impudcnt under English advice to
hold their ground.

One firm alone purchased two years
ago in that vicinity 100000 acres
from which nothing had been cut.
This large investment is not prob
ably yet occupied, Notwithstanding
the heavy trade going on from the
port of Mobile. It is hoped the civ
il authorities will provide in due
time for the restoration of forests
when their destruction in the lumber
trade has begun to be extensive en-
ough to require that work.

SOUTHERN TIMBER.

The government building at the
exposition contains an exhibit of the
forestry of the country. The south
in no one feature, says the Birming-
ham (Ala.) Age, stands better in
comparison with the north than its
timber products.
The late d. f. Sullivan, an Irish
man, of Pensacola, went to that
town about 1867. He began to
work up the timber trade. In fifteen
years he had a business which en-
tered perhaps every important sea
port of Europe, the West Indies,
and was beginning to enter South
America. lie owned ocean steam
ers, sailing vessels, the Pensacola
and Selma railroad, was president of
a bank, the capitol of which he
owned, besides 100000 acres of
timber land, all being tributary to a
business standard on less than 500
cash capital.
The timber business of the south
possesses many elements of econo-
my in practical working. The eli
mate is so mild that labor engaged
in it requires no stimulating diet or
expensive raiment or costly dwell
ings. The wagon roads are never
closed by snow or the water courses
frozen.
The Improvement of the Mississ-
ippi has brought into strange uses
two heretofore neglected specimens
of southern timber, viz: the cotton
wood and the willow. The former
is cut in sections of logs twenty feet
to forty feet long, a foot or about in
diameter, and driven as piles into
the river bottom. The latter is
made into mattresses, and both are
applied so as to check the caving or
corosion of the banks, and thus to
rectify and deepen the river channel.
The chief timber wealth of the
Atlantic and Gulf states consists in
yellow pine. Cypress, too, a very
valuable timber, is to be found plen-
tiful along the coast of those states.
Much of the yellow pine growth
has been destroyed for timber uses,
by "boxing" the trees for turpentiue,
in South and North Carolina. In
Alabama the most important timber
enterprises are carried on about Mo
bile. Those who first began there
since the new era have had no back
set A large trade has grown mp
with the north and with foreign
ports and is now prosperous. Quick
sales of products are accomplished.

Cabinet Pudding. Butter a mould
quite thick with butter; then arrange on
the bottom raisins, citron and currants
in the form of leaves or any other fancy
way. Line the mould with sponge cake
or lady fingers on the bottom and sides.
Make custard of six eggs, one pint of
milk, four tablespoonfuls of sugar; add
one teaspoonful of flayoring if you wish.
Fill up the mould with alternate layers
of cake and fruit, the fruit ON top, then
pour in the custard. Put the mould in a
kettle of boiling water, enough water to
come halfway up the mould, Ia tin ket-
tie is a good mouldl and let it steam till
the custard is firm. 1t should turn out a
very handsome pudding.

Alien Land Ownershin.

New York Graphic.
A curious illustration of the conflict
over the question of alien ownership of
land within the United States is to be
found in a fact generally overlooked.
The Twenly-fifth Congress of the United
States deliberately refused to put in the
Pre- -emption Act of June %, 1882, pro-
vision excluding all aliens from it's bene-
fits. The motion to so restrict was made
by Mr.. Merrick, of Maryland, father of
the well-known democratic lawyer of
Washington. The vote stood in the
Senate Is to %, and the affirmative in
Guided Bayard of Delaware, Henry Clay
and Crittenden of Kentucky, Prentiss Of
Mississippi, and most of the leading dem
ocrats of that day. Buchanan, Calhoun,
Clay of Alabama, Benton and Webster,
Robert j. Walker and Grundy were on
the other side. The law has since been
changed.
In the last report of the State Surveyor
General of Nevada q case is cited which
again oilONS III d lOIClDI6 l1duuSI the
need of arranging this matter of alien
land ownership. Though Chinaman is
refused citizenship, and even, except in
a limited way, residence here, the Su-
preme Court of Nevada has decided he
may purchase State lands and lawfully
hold real estate. When one Fook Sing,
in 1888, applied to purchase forty acres of
the State domain the Surveyor General
decided he was not ''such person" as is
entitled ''to apply" The State Constitu-
ton, however, gives foreigners the same
rights as regards possession, inheritance
and enjoyment of property as it does to
citizens, and on this the Supreme Court
overruled the decision of the Surveyor
General. This land SO allowed was
granted to the State by Congress from
the public domain, and the laws of the
United States declare that only citizens
or such as have declared their intention
so to become can have the benefitof our
public lands.
