AsALT SEA DOG.
SToN1NaroN, March 27.-Csptain William
B. Guerney, of the schooner W. & J. Gusr-
ney, is now at this port with his vessel. Cap
tain Guerney belongs to a family whose nat
ural home seems to be on the ocean. The
captain was born at Wareham, Mass, in
1928, hence he will be sixty-ssven years of
age next month. His father aud grandfather
were masters of vessels and when only hf-
teen years of age he was master Of the sloop
ODDLY" His ambitious desires, however,
were not satisfied with SO small vessel and
he soon obtained command of q schooner,
and has constantly retained that position up
to the present time. EARLY In life he formed
the habit of saving and he was thus enabled
to own the vessel he sailed, and
felt, as he expressed 1t, s'sort of
independent" During his long experiences
he has been tho owner of forty different
kinds of vessels and good fortune seemed to
favor him. He never lost one of his vessels
and he never had sailor sufficiently injured
to require treatment. Tho captain Ii q total
abstainer from the use of liquor or tobacco
in any form and to this fact he thinks can be
traced the sequel of his good health and re-
markedly vigorous constitution, for although
he is sixty.seven years of age his eye is un-
dimmed and his step as elastic as though he
was in the prime of life. The fact that the
family are thorough sea dogs is we'll proven
by stating that Captain Williams sons are all
masters Of vessels and at the present time
engaged in the coasting trade in command of
the following echooners, viz: Jacob Duryes,
Sarah j. Guerney, Allen Guerney and Booth
Brothers.

The New York Sun in it's account of the
Kellogg sale says: It requires even more art
to handle the youngsters, many of whom are
little moro than halter broken, and are nat

The usual treatment of catarrh is very un.
satisfactory, as thousands of despairing pa

writer says: "Proper local treatment is posi-
lively necessary to success, but most of the
remedies in general use by physicians afford
but temporary benefit. A cure cannot be
expected from snuff, powders, douches and

CONNECTICUT RIVER sHAD.

The approaching season of the Connecticut
river ahad suggests the fact that this valuable
visitor is In danger Of determination. Year
by year tho number of shad il becoming less.
Where once they swarmed in millions they
are now to be found only in thousands or
perhaps hundreds. That this Is so-that the
shad of the Connecticut river, once tho most
plentiful populated stream, a. to shad, in tho
world, are actually in danger of extarminA-
tion-the following figures which are fur
nished by tho Hartford Times significantly
indicate: 1876, 438, 9s1; 1850, 269, 918; 1881,
351 ,676; 1882, 272, 903; 1883, 1T, sos; 1884,
100, O45; 1885, 100, 400; 1885, 117,950; 1887.
1850; 1888, IS, $50; 1889. AZ, s95.
Sixty years ago the shad were much more
numerous than in 1879, the first of the years
named In the above table. Two causes ex-
ist to account for this alarming progressive
diminution, outside of all considerations of
drainage and mill injury to tho water and
the hundred harmful effects of Holyoke dam,
which shuts them of from their natural
spawning grounds 100 miles up the river.
The two causes are: First, the Wholesale
gobbline of the shad by the ''ponds," struo-
long distance from shore and which. inter-
greater part Of them before they have q
chance to reach the river, young and old,
little shad and big, being alike kept after
being caught, and the small ones, It IL said,
IL not big enough for the New York market,
arc sold for manure instead of being put
back into the water. Second, the shad are
ruthlessly slaughtered ON their enforced
spawning beds below Rolyoke dam.

APRIL CROP REPORT.
Good Average for Wheat and Rye
Winter Exposure Disastrous.

Good Average for Wheat and Rye
Winter Exposure Disastrous.
The condition Of winter wheat an April 1,
as reported by the Statistician of the De-
oartment of Agriculture at Washington,
averages 81 for the entire breadth. The
general average for rye is 92.s. Seeding was
late in the States of the central valleys, be-
cause of drouth and the soil was therefore
not in the best condition; but the mild win
ter continued growth until the plants were
too lusuriant to withstand the usual vicissl-
tudes of March. Recent frosts have cut
down the growing plants generally, and IN
vet or submerged areas the roots have been
DESTROYED. There are reports of recupera-
lion by sprouting and renewed growth In
this region. Where the roots are intact.
great Improvement will follow with good
weather. The fact that the roots are SO we'll
developed is favorable to Improvement.
In the South the soil was generally in bet
ter condition, and the early sown developed
RAPIDLY, and in December and January suf-
fered more or less from attacks of the Hessian
ay. In March frosts were general, discolor-
ING and sometimes killing the plants down to
the ground, but not injuring the roots ex-
cept in wet places. The crop looks brown IN
New York, but the State agent believes it is
better than it looks. The other Middle S6ates
return wheat ingood condition.
The Pacific Coast has had an extraordinary
amount of rain and snow, which have delayed
seeding and injured the early sown areas.
The report Of condition Of farm animals
makes averages as follows: Horses, 81 4 cattle,
"a. |; sheep, 9S.7; swine. $50 The loses from
winter exposure CT cattle have been heavy in
the Northern Rocky Mountain belt and on
the Pacific Coast. The reports indicate the
loss by exposure throughout the country OF
more than a million cattle and still larger
losses Of sheep.

IIeVees Are Tottering.

A recent despatch from New Orleans says:
The food situation in Louisiana is now eG-
tremely critical. Although only two serious
crevaSses have occurred thus far-one in
North Louisiana and the other sixty miles
above this city-many Of the most important
dikes in the State are seriously threatened.
The full force of the food is at present upon
them, as the crest Of the food wave is now
passing along the Louisiana front.
& The Uyer has been rising steadily for two
weeks from Vicksburg to this city, and the
. highest water of which there is any record
>has been reached The prospects are tfat
the river will continue to rise for week OF
more, anu is likely to 60 nearly foot
higher.
The danger is regarded as so imminent that
many of the planters are removing their
stock and personal effects to places of greater
safety. To add to the danger the levees have
become water soaked by the long continued
high water and are much weakened in con-
sequence.
The water in the Atchafalaya is SO high
that it already flows over the levees in many
places and mas submerged large section OF
Pointe Coupee and Avoyelles parishes. Very
little cultivated land has been affected thus
far, but the steady rise of the water cause:
great anxiety.
Many of the most valuable plantations in
that section are entirely inundated. The
loss will be large, as the crop for the yeat
will be entirely destroyed.
About fifteen hundred people, mostly col
ored. are now in state Of destitution in the
section. The water has been over the land
for a month. and there is no probability that
it will disappear for another month. ana the
poorer classes in the affected section are en-,
tire;y without means Of support. An effort
is being made to have them supplied with
Governmentr rationS.
