treasures under the Sea.

1t would scarcely be believed that valu-
ables have been recovered nearly two
hundred and fifty years from the date of
the wreck, but nevertheless it is recorded
that the good ship Harleem, which was
driven ashore in Table bay in May, 164S,
and became total wreck, had on board
many cases full of curiosities and antiqui-
ties for sale to European museums These
cases contained idols, rare china, glass,
silver, ETC. As lately as 1888 salying op-
eratlons were rewarded by the recovery of
these articles. The china was not at all
injured by having been two hundred and
thirty-fye years under the sea, but the sill
yer articles had suffered considerably.
Another very notable case-not only for
the amount of treasure on board, but also
for the big "Yindfall" for the salvors-is
that Of the Thetis, British frigate,
wrecked of the coast of Brazil in 1880,
with e162,000 in bullion on board. The
hull went to pieces, leaving the treasure
at the bottom in five or six fathoms of
water. The Admiral of the Brazil station
and the Captains and crews of four sloops-
of-war were engaged for eighteen months
in recovering the treasure. The service
was attended with great skill, labor and
danger, and four lives were lost. A good
deal of litigation was the result, as dis
putes arose between the parties as to the
amount of reward for the salvors. The
Court of Admiralty awarded eli, ,000 the
Privy Council 10000, and e25,000 for
expenses.
In the reign of James II. a very sue
cessful salving expedition took place. A
rich Spanish vessel which had been lost on
the coast of South America rewarded her
salvors with no less than 100000, stated
to have been forty -four years at the bottom
of the sea. A medal was struck in honor
of this event in 1887
One of the most recent cases of success
full salving operations is that of the Span
ish mail steamer Alfonso MI, bound from
Cadiz to Havana, in February, 1885, and
sunk off Point Gando, Grand Canary, in
twenty-five fathoms of water. She had on
board treasure valued at 100000. The
underwriters who had insured the vessel
organized a salving expedition, which was
dispatched to the scene of the wreck in
the following May 1t is reported that a
few months later most of the specie was
recovered = Cdsseps Family Magazine.

The Oldest Newspaper.

The Pekin Gazette, which was estab-
lished in the year oil of the Christian era,
has been regularly published since 1851
A. D., and is at the present time edited by
committee of six members of the Acad-
emy of Han Lin. Not only is it by far
the Oldest newspaper in tie world, but it
also is infinitely more instructive and in
teresting than all other existing official
gazettes taken together. To the student of
Oriental statecraft in particular the yellow
volumes in which these gazettes, trans
lated into English, are bound up and
issued annually, should be of remarkable
value. For here, in the formal record of
all the important ordinances, ceremonies,
proceedings, judgments, opinions, and
we can see partially unfolded the working
constitution of the greatest native Asiatic
empire and the oldest empire in the world;
we can follow the movement of the ad-
ministrative wheels, and obtain a glimpse
of the system upon which the machinery
is constructed.
1t becomes thus possible to form some
trustworthy conception of the principles
that underlie this vast organization-un-
questioned authority; lofty ostentation of
public morality; the afectation of profound
reverence for churches, rituals and all
things pertaining to divinity; deep respect
for tradition and ancestral usage, coupled
with steady encouragement of classic learn
ing; entire religious liberation, conjoined
with the peremptory assertion of civil su-
premacy; provincial home rule, controlled,
at least in form, by vigilant and despotic
central executive; in short, the continuous
experience of many ages applied to the
management by foreign dynasty of mis-
cellaneous tribes and races and an immense
mixed population. We are shown, of
course, only the external aspect of things;
we probably see no more than an astute
and carefully calculating Government
thinks expedient to disclose. And we may
assume that nowhere are the arcana imperii
more strictly withheld, so that the reality
may be safely guessed to be very different
from the outward published aspect of
affairs. Nevertheless, in this ample chron-
icle of current events and transactions, in
the notifications and orders, in their style
and their substance, we can recognize
leviathan Government in full play and
power, dealing in a masterful and appar
emily successful fashion with at least one
problem that has long troubled the world,
and still occasionally perplexes even Eu-
ropean statesmen.-Nineteenth Century.

Old Time Racing.

The following remarks from Colonel B.
F. Cockerill, the well-known breeder, of
Nashville, Tenn, may prove interesting as
a comparison between our modern racing
and that of some years back: I" remem-
Der much about those old times. A race
horse was race horse In those days.
There were no railroads, and the horses
footed it from place to place-from Nash
vile to Hartsville, from Hartsville to
Clarksville, from Clarksville to Columbia,
Murfreesboro, Fayetteville and on down
South to Charleston, S. c. The trainer
and the boys each rode horse, one was
used to carry the camping outfit, another
the tents and SO on. Just think of race
horse being used as pack horse, travel
ing so to 100 and 800 miles, and then go
ing out and running heat races. We
knew how to breed race horses in those
days. Now we are breeding something as
if we intended to place it in lady's par
lor."

TuLE BOTTOMS FOR RICE.

Horace D. Dunn writes to the San Fran
cisco Bal1etin as follows on this subject:
An extract from South Carolina paper,
in which reference is made to the prospect
of the rice CROP brings to mind the caps.
bilities of soil and climate in California for
rice culture, which are far more favorable
than is the case in South Carolina or other
Southern States California has an i'm
mense area Of tule lands, which only need
reclaiming, which can be done at moder-
ate cost, to make the most fertile lands for
rice culture in the world.
The greater part of the lands are free
from dangers of salt water overflow, equi-
noctial storms and other climatic dangers
common in the Southern States, the heavy
rains and storms in the Hawaiian Islands
or similar disturbances in Asia or other
tropical climates.
The crops of Japan have often failed, a
famine almost prevailing there at the pres
spt time, while the price of rice is unusually
high in the Atlantic States. A duty of q
cents per pound protects our rice growers
from competition with other countries, Ha-
waii only excepted.
When rice-growing commenced in Ha-
waii, about thirty years since, crops as high
as 5000 pounds per acre were harvested
there. Continuous cropping has to large
degree reduced the product per acre as well
as the quality of the rice. In Japan, by
using seed beds and transplanting plants, a
double crop, namely barley and rice, is
often obtained from the land. The same
practice would be successful in many por-
tions of the tule lands of California.
The advantages of rice culture are many.
We have a rich soil, abundance of fresh
water, freedom from heavy storms, an
equable climate as to temperature, proxim-
ity to places of large domestic consumption.

messed rice growing in those places. Hav
ing been engaged in rice milling in this
city, the writer is able to speak from expe-
rience of that industry as to the net weight
of cleaned from unhulled rice. Small
grained rice, such as is produced in Manila
and Siam, netted from 60 to IS pounds from
100 pounds paddy. The waste on the
larger sized grain (rice) would be still less.
A portion of this waste consists of meal
composed of the skin and outside of the
rice and is good feed for cattle ana hogs.
1t only needs an experiment made in q
favorable place on few acres, say five or
under, to prove the adaptability of our tule
lands for rice culture, which said expert
ment proving successful would at once in
augurate grest and growing industry, to
the benefit of our people and the enhanced
value of immense tracts of land now idle
and of comparatively no value to any one.

INTERSTATE COMMISSION.
A Decision Regarding Consultations and
Acquisitions.

WASHINGTON, September 5th.-The In
terstate Commerce Commission to-day rem
dered decision that the acquisition and
consolidation by a rail carrier, under one
system of management, of different COM
peting lines of the road, serving the same
territory in the carriage or competitive
traffic to the same markets, cannot create
the right on the part of the carrier to take
advantage of the consolidation of interests
to deprive the public of the benefits of fair
competition, nor afford warrant for OPP
pressive discrimination with a view to its
own interests, such as equalizing profits
from its several divisions, by making rates
and charges for one division that gives
profitable markets to portion of its
patrons, and higher rates and charges for
another division, that are destructive to
the pursuits of other patrons, who are COM
petitors in the same business, but its duty
TO the public requires that its service must
be alike to all who are situated alike. The
Commission further holds the road cannot
charge one rate for petroleum in tank cars
and another for the same in bond. The
weight of barrels must be taken as part of
the weight of the car, just as the weight of
the tank is
