A gentleman. who is well posted on
the livestock market. in talking of the
general conditions of the market, said
to a Herald reporter:
THE traffic just now is in sheep, but
the cattle are beginning to move. The
grass fat cattle are not ready just yet
They are still upon the ranges, but are
being rounded UP for shipment to mar
ket. Cattle viii be short this year, as
compared with last season. This will
cause the market to remain firm and
active. The reason OF the shortness is
that the ranches Were cut close last
year. This season California, owing to
the continued droughts, is taking cattle
from Nevada and Oregon that last year
went east. California's coming further
east for her cattle has made a differ
ence Of 10000 head in the market For
one state this is q very strong demand
especially when that state is a great
rroducer"

Striking Examples of Ignorance and Con-

Striking Examples of Ignorance and Con-
 tempt for Hygienic Science.
 Could more striking example be exhibited of the ignorance and con- tempt by hygienic science than is. shown by the condition of the tunnels of the metropolitan railways of Lon don? Probably in no other city in the world would the characteristics of the atmosphere of the tunnel between. say. Pfaed street and Kings Cross, be tol- erated for one single week; a great part of the existence of this filthy attribute of the subterranean railway system of London may be charged to the imper- fections of the steam locomotive. says the Engineering Magazine. This in- dictment could be heightened. but enough has been stated to prove that, although we cannot fail to gratefully reccguize the influence that George Ste- phenson's invention has exersed in am- eliorating the conditions of the life of the industrious masses, it still in it's high state of development possesses fundamental defects of a very serious nature. The benefcent science of electricity graciously offers us a means for tractiye and propulsion work, to move our trainloads of passengers or of merchandise, by which. in addition to the removal of all the serious disad- vantages to great degree inseparably associated with steam locomotive trac- tion and already enumerated, We ob- tain qualifications that have made the sometimes irksome necessity of travel ing real pleasure, If not a liberal edu- cation.

Gold Mines In Great Britain.

Near Dolgelly, in Wales, there is & gold-bearing district which yields about 1900 year. That isn't much for g gold mine; but it's more than most people imagine there is in the whole of Great Britain. Then at Leadhills, in Scotland, some gold is to be found some of it in quartz, in approved South African fashion, and some loose about the place. Ireland has a fair share of the spoil, and County Wicklow is the richest in gold. The entire amount taken therefrom wouldn't make one big Australian nugget prob ably. Silver. of course, is to be found in some quantities in the Cornish sil- ver-lead mines.
