A Curious Custom of Divination.

In Berlin there is an association of theo-
logical students bearing the name "Wngol-
flies which has for years observed on the
Wednesday before Ascension day the curious
custom of divining for the emperor'S destiny.
The way of doing this is unique The mem
beers of the association proceed from Berlin to
the village of Pchelswerder on the Havel, and
here they celebrate the anniversary OF the

Securing the hay crop was formerly one
Of the most laborious jobs Of the year. But
50 much j, now done by horse power that on
smooth farm, riding is about the hardest
labor required. 1t is also possible TO get hay
in better condition now than formerly when
everything had to be done by hand, and Of
course slowly. Much hay is still spoiled; but
a larger area is put in this crop than was
possible formerly, and on an average it is
saved in better condition. 1t is doubtful,
however, whether the signal service observa-
lions prOgnOsticate coming storms more re-

Where OYSTERS Were First Planted.

Wellheet, on the tip of Cape Cod bay,
claims to be the first town in New England to
engage in oyster planting. Years ago they
imported from Virginia 10000 to 10000 mol
lusks, and dropped them in the water that lies
near the town. The meaty bivalves thriyed
for time, and those engaged in the industry
made money, but in 1850 the interest in the
trade relaxed, and the oysters died out. Re-
Gently n few energetic persons have combined
and sent to the south for another instalment,
and propose to revive the industry and make
1t permanent Chicago Times.

The Wool Market.

Those best posted found out some time ago
that not only was the wool clip of the world
short, but its quality was also inferior. The
heavy rise in the price of merino wool
abroad arises largely from our unexpected de
ticiency in the River Platte clip. Round lots
Of cheap South American woods were re-
shipped hence in May and June to London,
because American buyers were hoping for
still lower prices. Now American buyers
are ransackmg London and Antwerp markets
ready to buy just such woods at % to % per
cent. advance in price.

In Massachusetts,, by better agricultural
methods the corn crop has been so increased
and improved that with the present value of
fodder they can raise corn cheaper than it
can be purchased from the west, and at the
same time improve the fertility of their lands
for other purposes. Corn fodder is now
largely fed in the place of hay, the product
of the grass lands being sold in towns Green
fodder is preserved in silos to consider

the SILVER QUESTION.

The reports made to the State department
by our foreign representatives make it GER
tain beyond doubt that in our fight for sill
yer we can expect no aid from the principal
nations of Europe Minister Phelps says he
is satisfied that the British government VIII
infexibly adhere to its past and present
policy III regard to the coinage; that 1T VIII
not depart from the gold standard now ana
SO long established. Minister McLane at
Paris reports that the French government
will under no consideration adopt the
American ratio between silver and gold.
Minister Pendleton at Berlin reports that
the adhesion of Germany to an international
bi-metalIic standard, such as was proposed
by the United States and France in 1881 can
scarcely be expected within any limit OF
time now predicted. Consul General Walker
takes more favorable view than the above,
but in concluding his report says: II beg to
reiterate the opinion l have already ex-
pressed in former dispatches, that nothing
will so much hasten the adoption in Europe
of the monetary policy which we desire to
have adopted, as the suspension Of silver
coinage in the United States
silver some time ago became convinced Oh
the soundness of this view Of Mr.. Walker ,,
and are advocating the repeal of the blano
law, not for the purpose of driving SILVER
out of our monetary system, but IN order 70
secure for it place therein when snail oe
permanent. The idea which some Oh the
men who are in favor of the continuance Oh
the present law are seeking TO propagate'
that nobody but gold bugs oppose the law
is erroneous. Some of the strongest friends
of silver, many of the firmest believers in
bi-metalism oppose it quite as strenuously.
They know that the inevitable result OF our
present rate of coinage will be to discredit
silver and to indefinitely 30 that jinnttffE1
to secure for it a permanent place in our
monetary system. To oppose our present
coinage law is by no means to oppose BIZ
metalism. Indeed, opposition to it is more
consistent with sincere belief in bi-metai-
ism than is assent to it. The talk which is
heard in some quarters of cutting aloof from
other nations and establishing an independ-
ent monetary system for the United States
is nonsense, unless we are going to cut aloof
from them in everything else, and erect a
Chinese wall along our boundary.

Among the speakers at the Jacksonian
banquet in Boston Friday were Ex-Governor
Garcelon and the Hon. John w. Deering.
The formers speech was practically repeti-
ton of the speech he has made annually at
a gathering of some kind ever since the win
ter of 1879. 1t was defence of the count-out.
The Ex-Governor contended that the coun-
ell was governed in all it did that winter by a
strict regard for the constitution and the
laws, and expressed himself as ready and
anxious to appear before any tribunal which
would like to listen to him, and defend it.
The Ex-Governor has already appeared be-
fore one tribunal and attempted to do that
very thing but with very poor success as the
Democratic members of it after listen
ing to his explanation could not find one
exculpatory word to say of the transaction
in their report. 1t may be that he fully be-
heves that his council acted honestly. It
has always been the impression in this State
that ne was the dupe of his advisers, and
that he really knew very little about the true
inwardness of that transaction. The Hon
John W. behring's speech is published in
another column. The doughty Mayor saws
there is an oligarchy in this State and that
Democrats are socially ostracised. That is
very sad state of things, but the Hon. Mr..
Deering seems to be bearing up under it
bravely. He never knew, he says, that he
was Democrat until he entered the board
of Aldermen. AS matter of fact he did
not discover it then. The discovery Of his
Democracy and the discovery of the fact that
he could not getanomination for Mayor from
the Republicans were simultaneous If John
W. behring's nomination for Mayor by
citizens caucus in 1882, had been endorsed by
the Republican caucuses Mr.. Dcering would
have been today as vigorous Republican as
he was in the days of the count-out, when he
kept himself under arms ready to march at
moments notice to Augusta to prevent the
seizure of the State government by the men

Mr.. Frederick II. Winston, the newly ap-

be fine thing to present himself before the
Shah in military uniform procured an APP
pointment as brigadier general Of the Illinois
national guard, an organization that exists
simply on paper, and them employed a
Washington tailor to get him up a gorgeous
uniform regardless of expense. Secretary
Bayard got wind Of the business before Mr..
Winston's departure and put a flea in his ear
which has decided him to forego the pleasure
that he anticipated in dazzling the Asiatic
potentate One of the Washington papers
publishes full length portrait of Winston,
uniform and all, while the sword and uniform
are on exhibition at the tailorshop where the
latter was made. The coat is double-breast-
ed with a row of nine gilt buttons on each
side, and is ornamented with silver cord and
epaulets The sword is made of the finest
steel and splendidly mounted in gold. 1t is
great pity that Secretary Bayard found out
what Mr.. Winston was about, for the account
which we should have received later on of

upon the Shah would have proved entertain
