Chinese floating Gardens.

In a recent number of the China
ReUiew DR.. MacgOwan descr hes tlie
manner in which floating fields and
gardens are formed in China. In
the month of April a bamboo raft
loft. to 12ft. long and about half as
broad is prepared. The poles arc
dashed together with interslices of
an inch between each. Over this
a layer of straw an inch thick is
spread, and then a coating two
inches thick of adhesive mud taken
from the bottom of a canal or pond,
which receives the seed. The raft
is mOOred to the bank in sill wafer,
and requires no further attention.
The straw soon gives way and the
soil also, the roots drawing support
from the water alone. In about 20
days The raft becomes covered with
the creeper (ip0m@G reptans), and
lis stems and roots are gathered for
cooking. In autumn its small white
petals and yellow stamens, nesting
among the round leaves, present "a
very pretty appearance. In some
places marshy land is profitably Gull
tivaled in this manner. Besides these
floating vegetable gardens there are
also foaIing riceields. Upon RATS
constructed as above weeds and
adhcrent mud were placed as a floor
ing, and when the rice shoots wcro

being adhesive and held in place by

DAYS. The RATS are cabled 10 Ethe
shore, floating on lakes, pools or slug
gish streams. These floating fields
served to avert famines, whether by
drought or flood. When other fields
were submerged and their crops

The Terra SEGA Gold Process.

The Terra SEGA GOLD rOcoS
A new aud ingeni rus method Of ex-
tracing gold and other metals from
their ores OH the dry system, without
the aid of water or chemicals, has
been lnvi ted by Mr.. VIII L. Card,of
the United States. The system con.
sistS in the employment IF two main
agencie>-a current of ar and CRAWL
t%Alion, in appropriately arrang ed ma
chimes. There are four types of these
machines-namely, a small hand
worked prospecting machine for test
ing the richness of gold and mineral
deposits on the spot; a machine for
concentrating refractory ores; a ma
chine for extracting free gold from
a%IluviaI and placer soils and a ma
chine for extracting Tree gold from
crushed quartz. The Principle un-
DERIVING each Of The machines, how
ever.is the same, although differently
cnrrird out 10 suit The requiem cnts
OF each case. As a general prlncI-
pie the crashed ore vibrated is fed in
to a hopper, whence il is admitted on
to a series OF inclined sleeves, which in
some cases are vibrated and in other
remain stationary. A fan OF blower
is used to inrce II blast Of air under
Meath the sleeves and upward through
them. In one case, however, the air
is drawn upwards through the sleeves
by a fan placed above the machine.
A. the crushed ore falls on the sleeves
is kept in n state of continuous but
gentle agitation, and the blast is So
regulated as to drive off the dust
like particles of earth, while the
gold or other metals, by reason of
their superior gravity, remain at the
bottGm of the sleeves. The particles
OF gold arr caught by the sieve on
of he,op incline, butt any small pnrti-
cles should pass beyond it they fall
into the second or third sieve. The
terra SEGA machines are being intro
duced into this country by Mr., Charles
WetzIar. Of 149, Upper Thames
Street, London, where we recently
witnessed a successful demonstration
of their working. Large bulks OF ores
were put through the various ma
chimes with most satisfactory results.
To instance one experiment, 6dwts. of
goldidust and some small nuggets were
mixed with a quantity of fly earth
and passed through the machine for
extracting free gold from a%lluvial
and placer soils. In the result the
nuggets and Sc. 8 per cent. OF the gold
dust were recovered, thus satisfacto-
riIy demonstrating the efficiency o.

THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.
The American Government staiistlcian
Speaks OF Progress.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.-H. N. S.
Dawson, commissi ner of EDUCATION, has
filed with the secretary OF the interior,
his report of the year ending June 80
1886. In the course of it he says that
from an analysis of 1897 to 1SS6-37, it
appearsthat the growth of the system OF
public education, considering the whole
country, has outstripped the growth Of
population l6 per cent. The gain, the
commissioner says, is due entirely to the
progress of public schools in the southern
sections. The sentiment in favor of free
schools supported by public funds, he
says, is becoming each year more uni
versally prevalent. The public school
systems OF the southern states have been
an unprecedented develop
ment. Under the laws adopted in each
case to local circumstances. and are
now practically all established now on
permanent basis. The colored children
are apportioned an equal share OF
school funds, unless in the state of Del
aware, and their schools are kept open
rs long and under as well paid teachers
rs those for the white children. The
funds for the support OF these children
are furnished mainly by the white in.
habitants.

BUYING SILVER.
The Cleveland Administration's Plans
again Reversed.

WAsHrNGToN, Sept. 2O.-Sec. Window
has decided that in the purchase Of silve,
for. coinage into silver dollars he will
hereafter accept the lowest offers for the
amount required, provided the price is
within the market rate as required b,
law. This reverses the practice, of the
department under the last administration
OF making counter offers, and is return
10 the practice which prevailed prior to
1885. The change in practice is said to
be due to the representations of bankers
and others that the practice of making
counter offers was in effect an attempt 10y
the government to bear the silver market
by forcing down the market rate. Sec.
Window, in speaking of the matter
this afternoon, said that this action meant
nothing more than appeared on the
surface, and was not to be understood as
indicating any change in the policy Of
the administration in the matter OF the
coinage OF silver.

Phosphates and Rioters.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.--Cable advices
have been received at the department oi
state from the Y. s. consul at Kingston
Jamaica, saying that a riot has occurred
at Navassa island, in the caribbean sea,
in which number of Americans have
been killed. The consul says that at his
request British war ship left Jamaica
for the scene on the news of the trouble.
1t is learned at the navy department that
the Galena is now on the way and will
probably arrive to-day. She was at st.
Nicholas Mole, Hayti, when the news OF
the riot was received at Washington, and
was at once sent to Navassa. This island
is under no particular jurisdiction, but is
regarded as under the protection of the
United States. 1t is said to be owned by
an American company, of which Gen. B.

The two men we're badly frightened
but managed to get into the bucket and
ring the signal bell to hoist them out.
Engineer Ben Swenson was standing
close to the engine and he quickly turned
on the steam and pulled the men out oi
the shaft.
Although Swenson got the men out as
SOON as possible, he was none too soon.
rs the miners in the bucket were half
drowned by the rushing water. They
were waist deep in it before the engine
started.
In few minutes the water was fifty
feet up the shaft, and later it was 100
feet r.
The miners undoubtedly opened up the
lower end Of reservoir of water which
was confined under great pressure and
which found vent through the shaft. The
men were extremely fortunate in escaping.
