WARRINGTON, October 90. THE State
Department has received intelligence
from the United Stst.a Consul Of
Charlottetown OF the arrival at that
port, on the 10Th instant, of the
Dominion steamer Alert THE vessel
is to aid in opening winter commune
cation between Prince Edwards Island
and the mainland. Since her return
from the Greedy relief expedition,
the Alert has been engaged in cruiser
duty ia Hudson bay, testing the navi-
Gability of those wA,er5 in connection
with the project of connecting Win
nipeg by rail with Fort Churchill on
the west coast OF the bay. Frank
Fitr Payne, an observer, who was at
Cape Prince Of Wales, on the south
shore OF Hudson's strait, from June,
1885, TO September, 1856, reports that
che solid ice came early in Oc-
tOber from down Fox channel,
blown by the prevailing north.
westerly winds, and the strait
does not open till July. M. Payne
made iull notes OF the flora aud fauna
OF the region. Lieut.. Gordon in his
report says the walIus hunting and
whale and porpoise fishing are capable
OF great extension and are profitable
pursuits. AT the present time there
are only two American whslers known
TO frequent the bay. Tney make
rendezyoue at Marble Island, near the
northwest coast OF the bay, in latitude
So. At that point we're found a num-
bsr Of graves Of American seamen and
relics. There can be little navigation
in the bay except in the months Of
August and September. A geological
exploration OF the northwest coast OF
the bay and an examination OF the
fishing grounds OF the American
whalemen have been proposed.

SOME OF THE RESULTS.

We clip the following, showing
some of the good results Of Farmers
Clubs, from the Asheville Citizen
Capt. A. M Alexander was in town
yesterday We are glad to learn
from him that the work of the Alex
ander Farmers Club has not been
without results. Many pieces of land
once given over to broom sedge or
gullies are now covered with a lux
uriant coating of clover or grass,
timothy or herd grass, and all good
for three tons of hay to the acre.
And Mr. Alexander says the exam
pie has been contagious, many farm
ers having gone into the seeding of
grass on commercially large scale.
This is the move for the mountain
farmers to take.

THE CROPS IN STOKES.
Francisco, Stokes Co.,
June Z, 1886.

Ed. PROGRESSIVE FARMER Being
a subscriber to your excellent paper
and seeing reports from different
parts of the State in regard to the
prospects of the growing crops, |
have concluded to let you hear from
old Quaker Gap Township.
The prospect for corn was never
better than at this time. General
Grass has had the upper hand of the
farmer during too much wet weather
but we have finally whipped him out
and now the corn crop looks clean
and lovely.
The wheat and rye crops look very
promising at this time. Wheat is
ripening and we will soon hear the
welcome sound of the scythe.
Oats are also looking well and
promise to be the largest crop that
has been reaped for many years.
The tobacco crops will be much
less in acreage than last year, with
poor prospect too, as the cut worm,
fly and grass hopper are destroying
the plants almost as soon as they are
planted. Owing to the low price of
tobacco this spring the farmers have
turned their attention more to grass
and clover. There has been the
greatest demand for seeds this spring
| have ever known. We have de-
termined in this section of the coun-
try to turn our attention more to
grass, clover and stock and make
our supplies at home.
AS this is my first attempt to write
TOR your paper will make my letter
short and promise more lengthy
letter in my next.
Yours Truly,

THE DUTY ON WOOL.

Considering the fact that agricul-
ture is the great source of national
wealth in this country, it is some
what singular fact that the domi-
nant party in Congress should seek
out from the 1000 articles in the tar
iff the leading agricultural products
to be placed on the free list. The
minority report on the proposed tar
iff changes states in effect that the
ool-growers in this country were
lead to believe from the tariff bill
first before the committee that no
adverse action would be had touch
ing their interest. They were, there
fore, not before the committee in
any official way. They did not dream
that the inadequate protection they
now enjoyed was to be swept from
them, and their vast interests left to
the mercy of a competition with wool
growers in Australia, New Zealand
and the South American States,
where the principal cost O. produt-
ton is the herding required by shep-
herds, where labor is cheap, and
where feeding in either winter or
summer does not enter into the cost
Of sheep husbandry.
In 1860, the sheep in the United
States numbered a little over g.
100000. In 1888, the number had
reached 5O,6OO,OOO. In 1860, the
clip was GO, 100000 pounds, while in
1883 it had reached 32O,OOO,000
pounds. The duty Of 1867, which
gave the wool-growing it's greatest
encouragement and induced the far
mers to increase their focks, and
spend their means for the finest va
rleties Of sheep and for their care
and improvement, and which finally
made the American woods the best
in the world, adapted to alLthe uses
of manufactures, has added moth ;ng
to the cost of wool, either to the
manufacturer or to the consumer
On the contrary, that cost has been
greatly cheapened.
In 1867, the price Of standard
grades Of wool was 81 cents i'm 1870
it was 46 cents and in 1875. 43 cents.
There has been steady reduction
in price, until now it is SO low as to
be temporarily Improbable. The
decay of sheep husbandry in the
United States would be a national
calamity. 1t would place our man
ufacturers at the mercy of foreign
producers. This is an industry which
cannot be built up in day. 1t has
required years Of care and cost to
reach its present development, and
sound policy demands its continu-
ance and encouragement.
Farmers throughout the Union
should Immediately address their
representatives i'm Congress. and in
sist that wool should not be taken
from the dutiable list where it has
been kept since 1924. This great
interest enriches every State in the
Union, and the country should rise
and repudiate the suggestion of any
committee of Congress which should
propose to remove the duty from
wool. Erchdnge.

A TIMELY DISCOVERY.

Illustration of a Plot for the Destruction of
the City of Vienna.
LONDON. Oct 9.-The Chronicles correspond
ent at Paris says he has just heard from Vienna
the details of startling Anarchist plot to de-
stroy Vienna and to assassinate Emperor Fran
els Joseph. The conspirators, whose plans were
frustrated by the authorities. had intended
to carry out the plot on Oct 4. Various
timber stores were tc be set fire throughout the
city. and during the confusion public buildings
were to be blown up with dynamite. The police
seized immense quantities of bombs and other
explosives in different parts of the city, especial
ly near the imperial residence at Schonbrunn and
beneath the bridge leading to the palace,
which the Emperor crossed daily. 1t was
also intended to make an attempt upon
the life of the Emperor at the same time. A
large number of foreigners and Austrians were
arrested. The ring leader escaped to Germany.
In consequence of the stringent ant-Socialist
lays: news of the discovery of the plot did not
leak out for several days

A Proposition to Govern Ireland by Means
of Four National Councils.
LONDON Oct 9-The Daily News says it is
enabled to state that a committee of the Cabinet
is preparing bill to establish four national
councils to represent the provinces of Ireland
The bill differs from Mr.. Gladstone's bill chiefly
in the omission of provisions for a legislative
body at Dublin. With this exception, the bill
fully meets the aspirations of the home
rulers in regard to transferring to
local bodies the direction of Irish affairs now
dealt with at Westminster. The government
has secured for this bill the hearty support of
Lord Harrington and Mr.. Chamberlain Mr..
Gladstone was not consulted in the matter.
The News expresses the belief that Mr.. Chamber
lanis the real author of the scheme, and that the
Parnelltes will reject the bill with contempt.
Commenting editorially this bill, the News
says: 1.-THE government are sanguine that they
can carry the BILL 1t is possible that many
Liberals will support the measure a welcome
installment If the bill passes, all the world
will know that Ireland owes it to Mr. Gladstone's
bold initiative, and to that alone"
