Barbados News.

The fortnight since the last mail left
for Eng and has been dry, and hot,
and dusty. There has been no rain to
speak Of in any part of the country, and
the hot suns have told upon the young
canes unfavorabIy. The Old canes are
fast falling under the bill. Planters are
MAKING every effort to push the crop sea
son to an end before the early raius set
in. The sugar made continues to be OF
good quality, and the quantity is on the
whole satisfactory. If native provisions
were sclrce a fortnight ago, they are now
still more scarce. American provisions
are supplying our wants. rhe laborerS
are making the most of syrup and cane,
which has been declared to be Satisfying
and fatfeuing.'' There has been quite II
stir in the local sugar market. Sales
have varied from $500 to 1915. The all

The little State of Luxembourg, with its
1000 square miles and 100000 inhabi-
tants, is just now much i'll the papers.
On the death of the King of Holland, who
cannot recover, and on Tuesday was re-
ported "sinking," Luxembourg passes by
Inheritance 10 the Grand Duke of Nassau,
who on Thursday assumed the Regency.
The State was originally German, and
though now independent and neutral,
there is IN uneasy idea that the Germans,
aware of its strategical Importance, may
~sinvite'' its Grand Duke to re.enter the
Empire on the terms of other small States.
~Luxemburgers would not like this, on
account of the CONSUMPTION; and France
would not like it, on account of the geo.
graphical position of the State. It has
been noted, therefore, as a sign of impor-
lance that the proceedings on the investi-
ture of the Regent were ell conducted in

Vaccination.

The following references to the recent
appointment in England of a ROya! Com.
mission to enquire into the working of
the Vaccination Acts are clipped from
LlOyd's Weekly Newspaper
THE VACCINATION ACTS.
On the motion for going into Commit
tee of Supply,
Mr.. Picton moved that a humble address
be presented to her Majesty, praying for
the appointing of a Royal commission to
inquire into the working of the Vaccina-
ton Acts.
DIR. FarquharSOn, as an uncOmpromis.
ing believer III vaccination, seconded the
resolution, on the ground that all inquiry
and investigation should strengthen the
truth aud do good.
MI. Richie said that us far as the
Government were concerned they had no
doubt of the efficiency of vaccination.
They were as much convinced of its
absolute efficacy as they had ever been,
and past inquiry had shown that it was
one OF the greatest blessings vOuchsafed
to mankind. But in consequence of the
efforts OF the anti vaccinatOrs to diStOrt
and miSrepresent the facts, and the un-
doubted impression they were making on
the public mind, the effect was very grave,
especially in some quarters. The Govern
ment had come to the conclusion to
appoint the commission asked for, though
not IN the terms of reference placed on
the paper.
The BLESSINGS OF VACCINATION
Although the Government have wisely
resolved to appoint a commission to in
quire into the complaints of anti .vaccina-
tlonlSts, it is important that it should be
known that the best authorities are as
firmly persuaded as ever of the blessing
of Jenner'S discovery. We commend the
following speech, delivered on Friday, to
the attention of parents =
Sir Lyon Playfair said Mr.. Picton had
remarked that at Leicester they had sue
ceeded for IL years in keeping small pox
down.. He would remind the hon, gen.
tleman OF the case of Leipsic, where there
was opposition to vaccination, and where
they had succeeded in keeping down
smallpox for Ii years. After that period
an epidemic attacked the town and the
number of deaths was $500 per million
of the population. The deaths among
the children were terrible; they amounted
to something like 10000 per million of the
population. The fate of Leipsic, he hoped,
would be a warning to Leicester. DR..
Farr said that before the present century
the average number of deaths from small
pox was 5000 per million of the popula-
ton, whereas under our present compul-
sorry vaccination law it was only 156. He
denied thai compulsory vaccination had
failed, and maintained that in the case Of
children it had most ~glOriously succeed

The Daily Telegraph of Friday publishes
a paper on the practice of dyeing hair
which throws the oldest light upon some
difficulties in the way of getting a living.
1t appears that old age is by no means
considered h0uourable by all employers,
and working men, when asking for situa.
tions, constantly find it necessary to dye
their hair. The dye-Sellers and hairdreSs-
erS all affirmed this with one voice, and
gave instance after instance i'll which per.
lectly competent applicants for situations
as bus conductors, &c, were rejected until
they had been dyed. Young women III

Yesterday morning while the Virginia stage
was standing in front of the Union Hotel,
just before starting for Virginia, one of the
lead horses became frightened at some thing,

reins, wheeled around and started down Pike

also his litlle girl. who wa, riding with him

over by both wheels Of the coach. and quite

was pretty well stove up in front. This is
the second time within few months that the

lucky ones, as nobody was injured either

Dredge Operations.

]. II. Rae, IT,, is now operating on batch
OF ta,l.ngs below Chinatown with The dredge.
Last week he had the misfortune to have the
large crane on the scow break and The suction
hose tarn to pieces. In consequence 1t was
ne cessary 10 put the two Blake pumps in
operation 10 drain The hole he had dug to
find the ,ailings. These tailings are q con
siderable distance below the surface and are
believed to be quite rich, as they came from
the old Su,ro mill which ran on rich ore from
the Comstoek in early days. Between the
point here Mr. Rae is now at work and
point just opposite the depot on the river,
there formerly stood four mills that worked
Comslock ore. The tailings are known to
be where they were deposited from these
mills. and are thought to be rich as in early
days rock was not worked up to any such
percentage as it is now. The ,alings that
are now being taken out will work about S2s
per ton and it is expected that when g'cater
depth is reached they will be more valuable.
Il is estimated that there are many thousands
Of tons Of these tailings between the two
points above mentioned, and the object OF
the Company now is to get them out for
working. 1t is also believed that there must
be much quicksilver deposited in the old bed
OF the river al points where the sluices from
these old mills flowed intoit. Several mem.
bers of the Company are expected 10 be here
from The Eas, in short time, and arrange
ments will then probably be made to open up
this vast bel Of tailinss on a large scale.
Should Mr.. Rae's expec ATOMS he fulfilled,
there will be work for the dredge and a large
number Of men for two or three years at least.
