A boy a few days since while walking on the beach at the end of the Cut Line. God- erich township. got caught in a bed of quick- eand. in which he sank so rapidly that he needed good heip to extricate himself. After he was get out a pole was thrust down for about six feet without finding ottom. Twenty-three convicts of the State Prison at Frankfort, K .. professed con- version under the revive. ism at Barns and were taken to the river for baptism. The Warden. though protesting that he did not doubt the sincerity of their repentance. escorted them with a strong guard armed with rifles. What roli ion is spring? Bu dhism. A grand exposition of the arts and in- dustries of Siam was opened there in April. The King's brother. Prince Damrokssh. is President. The exposition was inaugu- rated by a religious fete, lasting six days. during which prayers were said In all the pagodss of the city. The King then made a circuit of the show. which is very rich and interesting. and declared it open. A grocer, named John Acca, of West. minster, was summoned yesterday for sell. ing. to the prejudice of the purchaser. an article of food, to wit. jam. which was not of the nature, substance and quality demanded. The article which was sold by the defendant as “raspberry" jam was analyzed by Dr. Dupré, whose certificate read as follows: "The jam contains no raspberries at all, but chiefly consists of a mixture of goossberries. black currents, eto., with the addition of some seeds, not identified. and colored by rosaniline (one of the coal tar colors). The seeds and color- ing matter are added to give the mixture the appearance of the genuine article. and the presence of the coloring matter in an article of food is highly objectionable, and may occasionally be injurious to health." A line of twenty shillings and costs was imposed upon the delsndant. Another grocer. named Levy. met with the same punishment for a similar offence.â€"1’all Mall Gazette. A singular verdict was returned yesterday by a coroner's jury at an inquest held on the body of a farmer named Whelehan, at Knockane, near Nenagh. The deceased, on May 29th. had taken on his car a man named Kelly. Kelly was attacked by three men named Clare. R an and Rourke, upon which Whelehan jumpe 021' the car to irotect him. The assailants then turned upon \ 'holehan and beat him so severely with sticks that he died. The following was the verdict: We find that the deceased came to his death from inflammation of the leg, which pro ceeded to the abdomen. We are of o )inion that some injuries received on the head w en coming from the fair of Neuagh on May 20th. inflicted on him by some person or [lilorsons unknown, may have accelerated his deat . Rarely has a coroner’s jury succeeded so well in being absolutely non-committal without at the same time doing undue vio- lence to the consciences of its members. The latest English mails contain some curious notes of the campaign in Ireland between the people and the authorities. In Keadue, for instance, placards have been posted ofl'ering £100 reward for the head of Michael Kearney. of Dwmshambo, a publican, who also owns a coal mine and has been accused of furnishing coal to Lady Tenison’s Castle. Outside of Missouri, it might be thought such advertisements would not be very effectual, for with whom would the gentleman earning the reward file the head ? But there is no doubt that these placards do their work. as we read in another paper of the same date that “John Layden, the herdsman who was recently sworn to cease herding the boycotted farm of Knoekadelteen by a. band of moonlighters, and for whose head a reward of £50 has been offered by anonymous placards. has left the farm. which is now unoared for, the owner being unable to procure any person to take charge of it." In a third paper of the same date we read this inter. esting report of a coroner’s inquest: The last Parliamentary return of the arrests under the COBI'OIOD Act shows that on June 4th there were still 263 suspects in prison. Former returns show that on Feb. let there were 512 suspects in custody; on March let. 587; on April 1st, 511, and on May 3rd, 386. These prisoners are those whose arrests were purely arbitrary. saithout any offence being charged against t em. At a time when Irish landlords prefer to keep out of the country. or if living on their estates warily avoid their tenants, Lord l’ortarlington has just come home from a journey to Rome. As the train in which he was a passenger neared the station, the platform and approaches were thronged by his tenants, and he was re- ceived with hearty cheering. As he drove to his residence the people, With a band at their head, formed in procession behind the carriage. Triumphal arches spanned the road and huge bonfires blazed at the entrance to the manor park. Lord Port- arlington made a friendly speech to the tenants, and the utmost good feeling prevailed. The explanation of all this is given in the speech of the Rev. Father Phelan made upon that occa- sion. He said: “Acting on the principle of live and let live. this kind and gracious nobleman has now for the third time, voluntarily and without solicitation. reg duced the rents on his Emo Park estate to the Government valuation." Other Irish landlords are dlsuutcl‘lug that a landlord is not hated Simply because he is a landlord, and that it is quite possible for landlord and tenant to live together in amity. The Duke of St. Albans has resorted to arbitra- tion to adjust rentals on his estate in the county of Waterford, and reductions have been made varying from 25 to 60 per cent. Such landlords appear to be few and far between in Ireland. The number of fami- lies evicted during the month of May was 698. The Archbishop of Cashel recently declared that in his diocese alone there were 400 families who had been driven out of their homes. Such a policy naturally produces crime, and the folly of it is ex- hibited in the admission of the London Times that ” the market for landed pro- perty in Ireland has practically ceased to exist.” THE IRISH STRUGGLE. How a Really Good Landlord was Wel- comed Home. RUMORS 0F JURY TRIAL. Englllh Raspbeny Jam. is most prevalent in It cost Connecticut about 310,000 to afford ajury an opportunity to acquit the Malley boys of the murder of Jennie Cramer. It cost the parents of these gilded youths 320.000 to escape the gallows. But the fellows have been exhibited in their true light, and are guilty of as black a crime as the murder which was not proved on them. Some women in New Haven fancy they arefimartyrs. Creatures of that kind should go mingle their tears of joy at the escape of their heroes with Blanche Douglass, but they would not countenance her. She is a sinner. while the young men. one of them her paramour. whom she helped to reduce a young woman to a life like her own. are spirited and romantic youths? Sir George Elvey. organist of St. George's Chapel. Windsor, was married a couple of weeks ago to Miss Mary Savory. the youngest daughter of the late Mr. Joseph Savory, of Buckhurst Park. The announcement was followed by a notification that he had "resigned his appointments." Sir George is 66. and this is his fourth wile. He had been organist of St. George's Chapel since 835. In the Orkney Islands the trout with which the Loch of Ilarray abounded have assembled in large shoals in the shallows. The farmers have taken advantage of it to land the fish in hundredweights. One farmer landed one thousand trout at one sweep, while another succeeded in landing five cart-loads. The men wade into the wat and drive the fish into the nets. There has lately been exhibited in the Botanical Garden of Berlin the biggest {lower in the worldâ€"the great flower of Sumatra known in science as the Rmflm‘a Arnoldi. and peculiar to Java and Sumatra. It measures nearly ten feet in circumfer- ence. and more than three in diameter. Sir Stamford Rafllee and Dr. Joaeph Arnold were exploring in company when they dis- covered this champion plant. The treacherous banana skin is being made into paper. These calculations are astonishing more because they are simple and rest on a basis on experiments than because the results that seem attainable are so astound~ ing. Are we really to have aerial naviga- tion at last, or are more engineers going to the mad~honse ? } Since these experiments. the weight per ihorse-power of engines has been greatly ; reduced and improvements have been made in the manufacture of hydrogen, 2n the structure of envelopes of balloons and in many other mechanical devices for lessen- ing the weight of machinery and increasing its power. At any rate, no satisfactory tests have been made of these recent inven- tions in such an application. The experi- ments of Gifiard and DeLoms lacked only speed and carrying power to prove the practical value of balloons propelled by screw propellers worked by steam. By a simple and intelligible calculation Mr. Pole has reached the following results: Maximum diameter of the elon- gated balloon, 30 feet; length,~ 110; total ascending force, 2,970 pounds; weight of structure, 2,370 pounds; availa- ble ascending force. 600 pounds; horse- power of motor.3; weight disposable for cargo, after allowing for fuel and water (and re-using water by condensing steamâ€" an important improvement made since Gifiard'a experiment), 2} cwt.; maximum speed through the air, independent of wind, 12 miles per hour. A balloon 100 feet in diameter, with 370 horsepower motor, would have available weight for cargo of 18; tons and could make a speed “'23 miles per hour, independent of the} Win . 1 The first important step towards aerial navigation at will was made by the appli- cation of the screw propeller to a balloon. In 1850 Mr. Henri Gifiard constructed an elongated balloon to which he attached a rudder and a keel, and it ascended with an engine of three horse-power, which gave the screw power to propel the balloon at an independent velocity of from four and a halt to six and three-quarter miles per hour. The balloon was steered at will, and the result was theoretically all that could be desired. It proved the important theory that a propeller and a rudder attached to an elongated balloon would enable it to be propelled and directed at will. The two great problemsâ€"propulsion and steeringâ€"were thus solved. But there were still great practical dini- culties. In 1850 the envelope of the balloon could not be made inpenetrable and there was no very cheap method known of preparing pure hydrogen. Besides these and other less important difficulties of construction, the balloon would support no greater weight than one person besides the engine and the propelling apparatus. This objection and the lack of speed, of course, made it almost valueless. During the siege of Paris in 1870 the naval archi- tect of the French Government, M. Dupuy de Lorne, made another experiment similar to Gifl'ard’s with similar results. Instead of an engine, his power was the hand power of eight men. The practical difli- culties, however, that he could not over- come were of the same kind as Gifi‘ard’sâ€" the lack of speed, the inability to carry any cargo, and many smaller difficulties of construction. Important and Perhaps Practical Calcu- lations made by an English Engineer 0! the Possibility of Aerial Navigation. Aerial navigation along with perpetual motion has been driven irom the work- shop to the mad~house. The problem has been given up by the most practical men and considered impossible of solution by the world in general. But the subject has recently again been discussed in England with such plain mechanical calculations and by such practical engineers that it is likely to attractfresh attention and possibly to cause other and more intelligent experi- ments. There are several recent mechanical inventions and improvements that if properly a plied to serial navigation may overcome t e hitherto insuperable diflicul- ties.

The results of the examinations in the public schools (says the Montreal Suing show that the girls are on the whole ahe of the boys as far as prizes and rank are concerned. It is evident that whatever maybe the case in later years, girls are intellectually a match for the other sex early in life. Of course. those who argue for masculine superiority can contend that women develop earlier than men. and that girls give more exclusive attention to study than boys do.

I bled very freely and was very low. My physi- cian gave me up. A friend brought me some of Dr. Wilson’s Pulmonary Cherry Balsam which I used till I got permanently well. This statement made by Mr. A. J. Dodds, Maple Hill, P.

Half the fretting and repining through disease is unnecessary and wicked. There are many persons to-day lying on beds of pain and sickness who might as well as not be about their business, some are troubled with rheumatism, some are contorted through cramps, some are suffering the pains of neuralgia, some are troubled with swellings and others with boils, whitlows or felonsâ€"but many if not most or all suffer unnecessarily, for at their hand there is a remedy which cures all these diseases.

The Indian Delegate lntcrvlewe "Iv Colonial Secretaryâ€"Jr!” “Pall Mall Gazelle " Supports Their Petition. A London cablegram dated Saturday says: The delegate o! the Muncey Tribe of Canadian Indians had an interview with the Colonial Secretary on Friday. lie was received with the utmost courtesy. and the Government promised to look into the matter. The Pall Mall Gazelle says that a genuine Redskin. a pure Mohican, who is at once a chief. a schoolmaster and a disciple of Sir Wilfrid Lawson, should at tend at Windsor in his traditional costume. with war club and scalping knife all com- plete. and present to the Queen a battered tomahawkâ€"which he has. however. had the consideration to have ground and polished for the occasionâ€"is an idea so bold,so incongruous and yet so attractive, that it can only be hoped that nothing will prevent its realization. The case, more- over. which the Muncey delegate from Caradoc, in Ontario. comes to argue is one so deserving of all sympathy that one can only rejoice in every circumstance which is likely to call attention to it. His tribe. after faithfully adhering to the British cause through the French wars and the war of Independence in the last century, were royally forgotten by their great lather, King George III, living across the sea. who is very rich and kind and good to all his children. Being allowed, however, to settle unrewarded but unmolested on some waste land on the Thames River, they founded whathas since become a most prosperous settlement. now intersected by two railways. So prosperous, indeed, has Lt become that some Canadian farmers consider it too good for Indians, and desire to remove the Munceys further west. It is against this injustice. which is legally possible, for they have no title to the lands. but morally infamous, that the Muncey delegate has come to England to protest.

The weather now became cold and blustery. the wind rising into a blizzard. accom- panied by showers of hail. sleet and snow. It was “dead ahead." and blew with such violence that we were obliged to strip the cover from off the “bows" and lash it down to the waggon-box to relieve the strain on the mules from the wind pressure. At one point the driver had to put “ the breaks " on the wheels to prevent the whole concern from being driven back- ward.
