Wasps at Camp Meeting.

\ letter from Chester Heights, Pa, to
the Philadelphia Inquirer says: "A live
ly scene, not arranged for in the camp
meeting services, was witnessed in field
adjoining the camp Friday. John Henry.
a boy about Il, came into contact with
a wasp nest, and before he could CON
prehend what was the matter the wasps
came at him in a drove. They crawleti
up his trousers, stung him in the face and
hands, and for few minutes his yells
awoke the camp. He rolled on the ground
over and over and tried to crush his tor
mentors, but the wasps kept up a lively
attack and returned persistenly TO the as
ssult, stinging the boy. who only got rid
Of them by dsshing into a corn field near
by. When young Henry was finally
abandoned by the insects his hands and
face were Greadiuly swollen, and be was
in great pain all over the body. He was
taken in hand by an old farmer, who
prac'iced as an herb doctor. and in .
short time the farmer fouad an antidote
for the poison in the woods, and apply
ing some leaves vigorously the swelling
subsidized, the s,ings ceased to inaict pain,
and in halt an hour John Henry Was
himself again. and the people at the
ca.np reassembled and renewed their
devotions with vigor"

returns from The election Monday in

A Negro Messiah

The negroes do not appear TO have
changed much since the war, at least IN
the Southern States, although in this sec
ton education has done something for
them. Here, however, as elsewhere there
is still considerable ignorance aud fanat-
icism which the more intelligent and en-
lightened of the race have trouble in com
batting.
In some sections of the South the rcck
less folly of some OF the colored people
is deplorable, as witness the craze which
has broken out in Georgia ovee the new
Messiah" This per,onager who is, like
Others of his class, partly monomaniac
and partly a rascal, has announced him
self as Christ and 10y his wild preaching
has demoralized a large portion of the
State. Extraordinary folIies and extesses
are related, and it would not be surprising
if lives should be lost He is followed by
the wicked as we'll ss The foolish, and una
ny outrages have been perpetrated. To
reasoo with the deluded people who 90 a.
bout with him would be waste Of time,
and the only way to put stop to these
extravagances is to arrest him and contine
him in Jail.
A quarter OF a century has elapsed since
the colored people were emancipatel and
schools have been estab ished on every
hand and they have been provided with
innumerable advantages by which their
education and improvement might be adj
vanced, and yet we find large portion OF
the race as simple and easily duped as
they were in their benighted and helpless
condition as slaves.
Any folly in the guise of religion seems
to take captive the negro imagination i'm
mediately. And yet after all there are
white people who are just as week mind
ed, for is there not large body of people
out in Ohio somewhere who have taken
up ranting impostor named Schwein-
furth for their Messiah and who are pros
trating themselves before him with the
same elf-abandonment shown by the poor
deluded colored folks of Liberty, Georgial
The foolishneas of the whites is indeed
more shocking and Incredible than is that
of the negroes.-Neacs

Southern and Western wheat growers
will have a better chance for their grain
in foreign markets this year on account
of short crops in British India. Reports
to the government of the country shows
that the estimated area is about 275,00O
acres less than in 1888, and the wheat
yielded sixteen million bushels less. The
reports show decrease of about 32 per
cent. Rain is badly wanted in the
Asiatic wheat districts The Indian
product is being adulterated by middle
men on account of the low prices which
prevail. Reports received at the Balti-
more Corn and Flour Exchange place
of wheat from India for the
week ended july 27 at 100000 bushels, OF
which 100000 bushels went to Great
Britain alone. Advices from Southern
Russia also indicate much lighter crop
than usual in that section.

Governor jackson has appointed Asso-
ciate Judge David Fowler chief Judge
of the third Judicial circuit,,to succeed
Hon. George Yellott, who had become dis
qualified by age. The commission was
issued yesterday from the executive de-
partment at Annapolis, and was forwarded
to the clerk of the Circuit Court for Balti-
more county by Secretary of State LIE
Gompte. No successor to Judge Fowler
as associate judge has been yet appointed,
and it is not likely that the vacancy will
be FLIED by the Governor, that duty being
LETT to the voters of the judicial district,
comprising Baltimore and Hartford coun-
ties, at the approaching general election.
The necessity of the district being repre-
sented at the coming session of the Court
of Appeals, Of which Judge Yellott was
a member, was one of the reasons urged
for the appointment of his successer.-
Judge Fowler's appointment holds good
uutil November, when his successor is elec-
ted. He is a democratic candidate for
the position to which he has just been ap-
pointed, and Baltimore county has alrea-
dy selected its delegates to vote for him
at the judicial convention to be held at
Towsontown.

A Train Held up by Grasshoppers

A dispatch from Savannah, Ga, says
The grasshopper does not attack small
matters like crops in Cha'ham county,
but he has exhibited capacity enough to
stop train. Friday night the slight and
agile insect tackled the mogul and won
the fight. The Tybee train was pushing
its way through the marsh, when il sud
denly stopped. The passengers imagined
that brieands from the marsh had sprung
upon the engineer and tbrottled him, but
it was not so. A grasshopper had held
up the iron monster. On the island
there is to be seen a cane brake thick
enough to furnish out with arrows all the
archers of the world. These unused
weapors in natures arsenal are bent down
with the burdensome grasshopper. He
is large and numerous to an extent beyond
imagination. Friday night be conceived
wild fancy. Lying low and thick upon
The rail, he chirpcd gleefulIy as The train
bowled along Greasipg the track with
his blood, the whee's went round, but the
engine, tender and coaches stood still
The grasshopper conquered and died,
and at last the train sped on"

Distribution of Seed Wheat,

The Department of Agriculture at
Washington has practically concluded its
selection Of the varieties of winter Wheats
for general distribution. The list COM
prises seven varieties, of which three are
new, that is, have generally only local
cultivation, and three have had consider
able repute in some States, but compare
lively none in others, but the latter of
which only will they be distributed.
The spring wheats will be considered
later, as they can be distributed in the
winter and early spring.
The department has also ordered from
France five varieties of winter wheat,
three of which are of Southern origin.
and are recommended as rust-proof; the
other two are new wheat crosses made b,
Vilmorin, OF Paris.
The Southern wheats are the "Richell.
de Naples white, bald wheat, tn,
"Zellande," also white, bald, and th'
'Reiti,' a red, bearded variety.
These wheats are to be distributed il
sushcl lots to the experiment stations il
the Southern States. -
The other two are for distribution il
bushel lots to the experiment stations OF
the Middle and Northern States. One is
called the "Dattel, a cross of the "Prince
Albert and the winter red bearded Child
dam"-both English wheats, acclimated
in France. The other is the "Lamed, y
a cross of 'Priuce Albert" and the Noe"

\ full history and description of the
characteristics of each wheat, and, in
the cases OF crosses, of the wheats cross

experiment can be intelligeatly studied.
