New York Tribune.] » Secretary Sherman has already taken hold of the whisky ring in a very em- jkhatic manner. The pending applica­ tions for release from civil suits in sev­ eral parts of the West having been called to his attention, he was promptly re­ fused them, and has ordered the prose- cations to proceed at once in all cases. This not only disposes of the efforts of the ring to avoid the penalties for their frauds, but also finishes the efforts of a crowd of strikers now here, whose busi­ ness it is to sell so-called influence, on the pretense of being able to obtain de­ cisions from the department. _ Some gentlemen interested in the dis­ tillation of will sky who haw rpoRnt.ly »r. rived here from Cincinnati report that the manufacture of illicit spirits in the West is very great. They say that frauds upon the revenue by illicit distillers are now committed mth great recklessness, and with as much success as before Gen. Bristow began his war upon the ring. The lack of energy which has character­ ized most of the prosecutions since Gen. Bfisiow's resignation, and the ease with which pardons have been obtained, to­ gether with the general belief which seems to have prevailed among those in­ terested in the frauds that the vigorous prosecutions instituted by Secretary Bristow were not fully approved by the administration, have given immunity, so these gentlemen say, to illicit distilling. Honest manufacturers of spirits in Cin­ cinnati are accordingly thinking of clos­ ing their distilleries until the Govern­ ment does something to protect them by making whisky frauds impossible. At the present time, these gentlemen say, an honest distiller cannot compete with the manufacturers of "crooked" whisky. They add that the amount of illicit spirits in the Cincinnati market is very great. The present indications are that a change in the policy of the Treasury De­ partment toward this class of law­ breakers will take place at once, and that, profiting by Mr. Bristow's expe­ rience and the discoveries he made as to the methods of fraud, the war upon the " crooked " whisky men will at once be renewed by Secretary Sherman with great vigor. New York and the Grain Trade. As a grain market New York is stead­ ily losing while Baltimore is as steadily gaining ground. The cause is not so much Baltimore's wisdom as New York's folly. Enjoying for generations the great advantage of the main American point of export for cereals, New York's merchants imagined that their hold on the shippers of the West could not be shaken, and, presuming on their ability to control the grain movement, they lev­ ied grievous tolls upon shipments. Ter­ minal charges were multiplied upon slight pretext, complaints were disre­ garded, and i^ was not until her mer­ chants saw her receipts decreasing year by year that New York woke up to a! re­ alization of the fact that other ports were seriously disputing and one of them over­ coming ner supremacy. The New York Tribune gives the fol­ lowing exhibit of the total receipts of grain, flour not inoluded, at each of the ports named, for three weeks ending March 17, in comparison with receipts for the same period last year : 1876. 1877. New York 2,325.«2 1,793,489 Baltimore 2,166,680 2,296,750 Philadelphia 1,814,026 1,027,100 Boston 588,924 1,010,437 The great increase in Boston's receipts is explained as not due to the export trade, "for during those weeks only about 149,000 bushels of grain went abroad" from Boston. Apparently the increased demand was for consumption in the industrial towns drawing upon Boston for supplies. The table quoted above does not so fully demonstrate Baltimore's gain and New York's loss as the following for a longer period, namely the eleven weeks last passed, as com­ pared with a like period in 1876 : 1876. 1877. New York... 7,417,952 5,714,531 Baltimore 6,880,260 6,728,094 Philadelphia 5,360,250 3,360,600 Boston 1,787,180 3,148,544 The figures are. sufficiently significant of the fact that New York no longer en­ joys the advantages once almost wholly her own. Her merchants have to blame their own greed and shortsightedness. While in fancied security they failed to keep abreast of the times, and piled up tolls, and neglected to supply proper facilities, Baltimore was wide awake, bid­ ding for the grain business of the West. Quick to see the advantages she held out, Western shippers abandoned New York, pouring the bulk of their store into other and nearer granaries.--Chi- -cago Times. Another Black Hills History. In April, 1876, Mr. John Robinson, a carpenter living in Fulton county, was advised by his doctor to emigrate to a mountainous country. He took his family to the Black Hills, where he found work putting up sheds for miners. On Oct. 26 he and five others went five miles into the mountains to do some wo^. The party not coming back, search was made. The six men were found dead. They had been killed and scalped by the Indians. Mrs. Robinson, thus left a widow with two children, one of 14 years, the other of 7, was equal to the emergency. She sold her house­ hold goods for $100 to some miners, and started East with her children. The lit­ tle money she had took her but a short distance on her journey. By working at whatever she could get to do, and walk­ ing hundreds of miles, she finally reached her mother's home near Ellenville, Ul­ ster county, a few days since, having been nearly five montns on the way. She advises everybody to stay away from the Black Hills.--New York Sun, The Potato Beetle in Germany. Disagreeable news for agriculturists and the public generally has been re­ ceived by the British Commissioners of Customs. The Colorado potato beetle has been discovered in a living state at Bremer upon goods brought from New York, and specimens of the beetle have been seen at other places in Germany. The Commissioners have issued a circu­ lar to the Collectors of Customs at the jrarious ports in the United Kingdom, directing that instructions already given for detecting the beetle be at once ap­ plied to potatoes imported from Bremen or any other place in the German empire. AFIne Legal Point. I- The growing cunning of crime is be­ ing matched by equally increasing as­ tuteness on the bench, as is evidenced by the recent decision of Judge Brady, of the New York SupreAe Court, in the of Connors, the Northampton Sfass.) bank-robber. The theory of e defense was that Connore had never been in Massachusetts, and, that there-' fore he oould not be surrendered on a warrant from the authorities of that State. The United States constitution recites that a person " shall flee from justice " in order to be subject to requi­ sition between States. Technically, Connors had not " fled" from Massachu­ setts justice, but he was the master spirit of the burglary, and received the "plunder." So Judge Brady applied a little common sense to the case, and took the ground that essentially and really the man in New York who commits a crime in Massachusetts flees from Mas­ sachusetts though his body has never left Manhattan island. The case will be appealed, if necessary, until it reaches the Supreme Court of the United States Daniel Deronda. I have recent!} bexm told a curious fact in regard to George Eliot's last novel, " Daniel Deronda." It is this : Thehe- roihe, Gwendolen, is a lady living in London, who some years ago was pos­ sessed of nearly $1,000,000. She went to the continent and became " an infatu­ ated gambler," losing nearly all her money, and parting with her neeklac#, as the book states. During her infatuation she was narrowly watched by George Eliot, and also by a wealthy gentleman living to-day in Manchester. So inter­ ested did he become in " Gwendolen," that, as the book stated, he offered to make good her losses if she would cease play, but was refused. As I have said, the lady now lives in London on an in­ come of about $1,000 a year, all that is saved from the wreck. She is 25 years of age, unmarried, and anid to be very handsome, and what adds interest to the tale is the fact that she is the grand­ daughter of one of England's greatest poets. -- Correspondence Cleveland Leader. Chinese Drugs. If blue glass be not a panacea, there are many curious Chinese remedies that can be tried. For instance: Dried liz­ ards, dung beetles' skins, and armadillo scales, for cutaneous diseases; caterpil­ lars, used as a purgative for bronchial complaints; hedgehogs' skin, a decoction for pulmonary complaints; snake skins, for small-pox and skin diseases; petrified crabs, for boils and sores; dried cow's gall, as an expectorant; glue from tigers' bones and asses' skins, as a tonic; salted scorpions, for small-pox, rheumatism and ague; deer horn jelly, as a stimulant; rhinoceros' horn, a decoction for small­ pox; dried toads, a tonic and sudorific; dried maggots, for fever and dysentery; tiger's skull, for typhoid fever and liydro- Ehobia; pearls, used in affections of the eart and liver, and powdered for ulcers and opacities of the cornea. These reme­ dies are selected from a list of Chinese drugs exhibited at the Centennial. It reads like an invoice of the witchesVcal- dron. Centenarians (tone. Five centenarians have/ recently died in Western New York, their ages being set down respectively at 110, 109, 108, 106 and 104 years. The oldest of these was a moderate but steady drinker and smoker, while the next oldest was an equally steady horseback-rider, the man of the whisky and pipe outstripping the man of the open air by a year. One of the five was a woman. All, of whose mental condition any note is made, seem to have kept their faculties unimpaired until the last, and the figures as .to their ages are stated with all the positiveness of belief. If they are to be accepted as correct, this series of deaths, or rather of lives, in the same region, may well be called remarkable. The Four-and-a-Half Per Cents. There is good authority for the state­ ment that the Treasury Department has reason to believe that the entire amount of the 4 J per cent, loan will be taken before the meeting of Congress in De­ cember. One hundred and thirty millions of the amount have already been placed, about half of which is sub­ scribed to in Europe, leaving $170,000,- 000 to be placed. Only $20,000,000 of the five-twenties of May and November are now outstanding. After these are called in the treasury will commence on January and July, 1865, 6 per cents. About $150,000,000 of these will have to be called in to complete the placing of the 4£ per cents.--New York Tribune. A Rush to the Black Hills. Reports received in Washington rep­ resent the Black Hills territory as set­ tling up more rapidly than Government officers had any reason to expect. It is now said by those familiar with the pres­ ent tide of emigration that 50,000 people will go there this summer, attracted by the late gold discoveries. A daily line of Btages has already been established from Cheyenne, and a tri-weekly one for the Fort Kearney line from Sidney, and one or two others will soon be established from other points. The travel is already so great that passengers have to engage their seats at least a week in advance. Serfs in Russia. According to some statistics on 'serf emancipation which have been pub­ lished in the Oolos, there are still 2,000,000 of serfs in Russia, their emanci­ pation not having been effected, either in consequence of the high price of land or their own unwillingness to accept the new state of things. In the eastern provinces of the empire the annual num­ ber of serfs emancipated is rapidly di­ minishing. From 1851 to 1865 it was over 500,000; from 1865 to 1870, 350,000, and in 1876 it was only 110,810. THE Christian missions employ 220 agents and spend $350,000 a year to con­ vert Jews in Europe. The most success­ ful work has been done in London, where there have been 1,395 baptisms, but the mission at Rome, which has been open several years, does not count a single convert. This country, Northern Africa and Russia, which have large and grow­ ing Jewish populations, are especially destitute of missions. THE whole population of British India is close oh 239,000,000. The density of population varies from five to over 750 inhabitants per square mile. POPUUX 8CIKKCK. What She Said on the Way Home from the Lecture.

AN old bachelor never mourns his blessed singleness so much as when he is awakened at midnight by a masked burglar, and painfully realizes the fact as he " scrouges" over against the wall, that there is no loving heart lying on the outer edge of the bed to discuss the situ­ ation with the intruder. HE was the son of a Bishop, and had been carefully educated, but he had his wild oats to sow, nevertheless, and when the old man sharply asked him how loughe thought the door of salvation would stand open, he said he couldn't tell, but he didn't want to be jerked over the threshold. THE imperishable affection of a child for its mother is equaled in no other phase of animal nature. A bright Ne­ vada boy of 16 summers has the ex­ tracted teeth of his maternal ancestor manufactured into cribbage pegs, and now, when he holds a five and ten, it doubly reminds him of his deceased mother's maternal smile, and brings tears to his youthful eyes. " DID you ever break a yoke of 4-year- old steers ?" asked a farmer of a young chap who wished to marry his daughter. " No, I never did," was the meek re­ ply, "but I have rode a mule in a circus, and had a good deal of other experience in the world." "No other experience," said the farmer, "could qualify you, young man, for tryimg to handle that girl," and the sad youth departed. The Rinderpest. The prevalence of rinderpest in Ger­ many, and of that malady and the foot and mouth disease in England, has led the Treasury Department to issue a cir­ cular prohibiting the importation of neat cattle and the hides of neat cattle from those countries and Belgium, Holland and Ireland into the United States. It is suggested by the department, further­ more, that horses, sheep and swine com­ ing from any of the countries named be examined by experts, and, if necessary, quarantined for a reasonable time; to which it is apprehended importers, as a rule, will offer no special objection, as it is to the interest of all concerned to pre­ vent the spread of this disease in the United States.
