Another yiew is that this visitation, as well as those of the grasshopper and locust, is atâ€" tributable to the denundation of the soil by the clearing incidental to the settlement of the country, and the consequent absorption of larger quantities of solar heat, which stimâ€" wlates insect productivaess. It is evident that from some cause or other insect plagnues are more numerous and destructiva than ever before, and the scientist can find useful emâ€" ployment in endeavoring to discover the eause and provide the remedy. A native hanter in Siam lately came upon a locality, very remote and secluded, which proved to be rich in sapphires. Some men, who immediately followed him, returned to Rangoon and Calcutta with stones which reâ€" alized very large sams. Then came a rush, and thousands of British subjects from Burâ€" mah passed through the capital of Siam on the way to the mines. Some of them found fortunes, but many others met with jangle fever, and died, while those who survived returned home so emaciated that the tempâ€" tation to grow rich at such a cost lost its Prof. Riley, the Missour: entomologist, states that the army worm is no modern pest, but has been knownas early as 1743.

They advance at from two to five yards an hour, ‘There are various theories as to the present invasion. â€" One hy pothesis,that ot Dr. Fiteh, an American scientist, is that the natural habrtat of the pest is in the wet marshy lowlands, where it is greatly mulâ€" tiphed by a dry season, and that when a wet season follows it is driven from its lurking places m flocks, This theory is based on the wretel TwE PERILA OF* AN IRISH LAND AGENTâ€"TEN BULLETS IN A MAXN‘s BoDY, rather a prominent local land ag he became land agent, however, have acted in his new characte harshness towards ‘‘the persecu ry," in whose behalf it was his tend "demonstrations" in the We The Irish Assassination.

All the scholars followed him to the grave." It is a curious comment» ary on the custom of the time that Raikes, in addition to his labors as a philanthophist and a newspaper editor, should have acted as agent for all sorts of patent medicines.

The pit is 280 yards deep. All the machinery was new, but the black vein seam is an old one and is well known in connection with previous explosions,one of which in 1860 killed 145 persons. Itis now certain that 119 persons perished in the Risea Colliery. It is impossible to say when the bodies can be safely reached. The bodies of three unfortunate miners were found near the bottom of the chaft, but were not brought up. The force of the explosion was terrific, blowing to atoms the ventilating fan in the upeast air blast. While the men were at work yesterday the atmosphere was noticed to be beavy and overcharged. ‘The scenes about the mine are reported as Leaitâ€"rendring. â€" There is a large throng present, and everything posâ€" sible is being done to expedite the rescue of the men, but scarcely anyone bopes to find one of the miners alive, # Sir. Wm. Harcourt (Home Secretary),reâ€" plying to an enquiry in the House of Comâ€" mons today,.said he believed 118 men perâ€" ished by the explosion. A eareful examination of the Company‘s books show that120men descended into the pit for the night shift. A Cardif despatch says a hundred and twenty eight men were in the pit of the London and South Wales Collieey Compâ€" any‘s mine at the time of the explosion.
