Crcp Conditions Abroad.

Below is Beerbohm's report upon
crop conditions, under date February
9Th. Since that date reports have been
disseminated implying impairment to
prospects in France. Beerbohm says,
''the weather remained relatively mild
for the season until Tuesday, when
some snow fell, and the temperature
dropped; since then, however, there
has been some improvement. In
France there are occasional complaints
in the Centre and Northwest of the
possible harm to the young plant by
alternate thawing and freezing, but
generally speaking prospects are quite
favorable. In Germany, too, crop
reports on the whole are favorable. In
Hungary and Roumania as well as in
South Russia, the severe weather has
caused anxiety for the young plant,
and it was indeed feared that serious
injury had been sustained in Rou-
mania. In the Argentine it is now
stated that although the area sown
was larger than in the previous year.
the yield per acre is smaller, and the
surplus for export will not exceed that
of last year, viz, about $4,000 TONS

Tariff ON WOOl-Its Results.

The Springfield Republican well
saws: 1t is a curious and instructive
fact that during the last year, with
higher duty than ever on raw wool,
the number of sheep in the United
States has declined or 4 per cent,
when in England with no tariff on
wool, the number has increased. The
agricultural department reports A,
938, 900 sheep in the United States at
the end of 1891 and the British board
of agriculture gives the number OF
sheep in Great Britain at the same
time as 20, 735, 600. And yet Great
Britain has an area of only 10000
square miles with a population Of over
80, 900, 900 crowded into it; while the
United States has a sparsely settled
area of over 100000 square miles,
When the free wool bill comes up in
the House the opposition should be
asked to explain how it is that under
free wool Great Britain supports about
240 sheep to the square mile of thiclly-
settled Territory while the United
States, with a high tariff on wool, sup
ports less than 10 sheep to the square
mile of thinly-settled and vastly
cheaper land.

relates to any authority in Congress to
make or alter regulations as to the
times or manner of holding elections
for Senators, the following be proposed
as an amendment to the Constitution,

A Tremendous SUnSDOt.

A huge spot, which can easily be
seen without other aid than a smoked
or deeply colored glass to protect the
eye, is now visible on the sun. 1t is
the largest sunspot that has made its
appearance since 1888. 1t does not, at
present, exhibit evidence of much
activity, although it covers an enor-
nous expanse of the solar surface, and
indicates, by its presence, the increas-
ing intensity Of the forces which are
now disturbing the blazing shell Of the
sun, and which will not attain their
maximum for several years to come
A dispatch from Albany says =
1.-THE new sunspot was carefully OBJ
served here Wednesday at the Dudley
Observatory by Assistant Professor
Lochner. The spot, or rather group Of
spots, covers, according to his calcula-
lions, a disturbed area of 49, 200 miles
in length, and from 10000 to 100000
miles in width. The principal spot
has two nuclei, each of which has q
diameter of about $4,000 miles, while
the penumbra around the principal
Spot mas all extreme "luth vi oo'VVo
miles"
Those who are interested in the sun
spots will be able to see an enormous
one ON the suns face at the present
time. 1t can be seen with the naked
eye, protected, of course, by smoked
glass. Spectroscopic copies that have
been taken at Mount Hamilton, Cal,
of the observations Of the new star
that lately appeared near Chi Auriga
are hardly satisfactory as yet, but are
interesting for study.

Mr.. Hill may succeed in obtaining
the presidential nomination at Chica-
go, and he may be elected, but he has
certainly jeopardized the success of the
Democratic party After the Demo
cratic cyclone of 1890 it was universal
ly conceded that, with Cleveland as
their standard-bearer and with har-
mony in their ranks, the Democrats
would have walk-over in 1892. Mr.
Hill by allowing his eager ambition to
get the better of his judgment, if not
patriotism, has most. assuredly upset
all these chances of certain Democratic
victory and made success doubtful.
And vet he boasts that he is Demo
crat of the Democrats Richmond
Times.
1t is case of vaulting ambition DER
leaping the saddle and falling on the
other side. He will in all probability
be disappointed, whereas if he had
waited patiently for four years and
had given Cleveland a cordial support
this year, he would be elected in 1896.
