The Russian producers of kerosene oil are making vigorous effort to possess them- selves of the Chinese market. According to the report of the American consul at Chin. Kiang, while very little Russian kerosene oil was imported in the year 1888, in the year 1889 the importations were, by quarters, as follows: First, 4,100 cases; second, 7,60o cases; third, 18,8o0 cases; fourth, s7,600 cases; or total of 53,000 cases in year. In 1888 there were landed at that port 152,- 459 cases of American kerosene oil. In 1889 the number of cases imported was 136.- 230, showing falling of in the year of over 17,000 cases, a deficiency more than made good by the Russian importation.
 A statement of the clearings effected through the banks of our largest cities for the year just passed and for the year 1880 affords information of interest. A table of l twenty three cities, ranked according to the amount of their olearings, is headed by New York, with total of $s7, ,2Ss, ,493, ,376. This is an increase of only 3.6 per cent. over the
 figures of 1880, but is still an amount nearly
 twice as large as that of the twsnty-two other
 cities combined. In 1880, however, New
 York's elearings amounted to nearly three times that of the other cities, some of which

 Dentists are making themselves too unsni- nous in Italy. The Italian minister of the interior has sent circular to all the prefects in the kingdom pointing out that in many parts of Italy dentists do not con6ne them selves to the practice of their own art, but cell medicines, plssters and ointments. which they declare to be good for all kinds of disease, and in other ways infringe on the prerogative of duly qualified medical men.
 His excellency calls on the prefeots to use every legal means of suppressing "not only the wrongful exercise of the healing pro. fessions generally, but more especially the pompous display of such illegal practice in
 public places." The mayors of communes
 are enjoined absolutely to forbid such prac-
 titioners from occupying public spaces."
 An agricultural colony for idiots has been established near Kharkoo, Russia, on piece of land about one hundred acress, which the
 cisizens' council of that government has bought for the purpose from the Countess | Shoovalova. Two large pavilions have been built for the accommodation of fsrty-five men and thirty-fve woven. Ssventy-two patients have already been received there. The land is laid out in gardens, orchards and fields for sowing grain, and the patients will
 be trained to cultivate them. The outside
 appearance of the place is that of wealthy farm, and the pavilions are fitted out with
 all that is required for the care and comfort
 of the patients. Besides agricultural work, they will be trained to take care of cattle and
 fowls and to light manual work, such az
 winter time. A staff of three physicians and
 men and women superintendents have been
 engaged to take care of the institution.

A man of brains can often do good work with poor material. On St. Paul's river, in Liberia, there is homemade steamboat. Il was constructed by a negro named Irons, who was once slave in South Carolina. He built his steamboat in this way: He remodeled a canoe fifty feet long, put in the engine of ( sugar-cane mill, rigged up paddle wheels and put in some bits of iron shafting. Th' steamer is not beauty, but it carries freigh and passengers and does good service.
