Geschens Success. PARLIAMENT RATIFIES HIS CONSOLIDATION OF THE NATIONAL DEBT.
A London despatch reports that in the House of Commons Mr. Goschen, Chan- of the Exchequer, moved a resolution that consolidated and reduced 3 per cents be re- deemable at any time after the expiration of a year from the date at which the reso- lution, having been inserted in the Gazette, is affixed in the Royal Exchange by pay- ment of not less than £500,000 at once, ac- cording to an act to be passed. He said that the balance of consols unredeemed was £40,000,000 and of reduced 3 per cents outstanding, £60,000,000. He proposed to give notice that he would redeem both on July 5. He would propose next session an act prescvtbing the manner in which the resolution should be carried out. The re sources then at the disposal of the Govern- ment»would doubtless enable him to carry the resolution into effect in a manner not costly uer inconvenient to the state.
Mr. Childerscongratulated Mr. Goschen upon being able to take this last step to- ward the conversion of the national debt. He suggested that, as money was now cheap, Mr. Goschen introduce a bill during this session to pay off such holders as were willing to be paid off.
Mr. Goschen, replying to questions, said that Parliament might reserve the power to pay off'the debt, not in ome sum at the ex- piration of the time specified, but at such times and in such instalments after the ex- piration of.that time as the act might pro- vide. He would consider the suggestion of Mr. Childers regarding an allowance to the Bank of England; also his suggestion that the sumedue the bank, £11,000,000, ought to be reduced. The whole relations be- tween the Treasury and the bank needed revision, and he intended to go into the matter in the autumn. . The resolution was carried.
Australasia in 1888.
Mr, Heylyn Hayter, the Government Statishof Victoria, has just issued a series of preliminary tables on the population of Australasia. on January 1, 1888. The total population of Australia at that date was 2,800,886, showing an increase of 100,-, 921 overthe previous year. It was dis- tributed as follows; Victoria, 1,036,118; New South Wales , 1,042,919; Queensland, 366,940; South Australia, 312,421 (a decrease of 337 over previous year), to which should be added about 5,000. for the Northern Territeries; West Australia, 42,- 488. In addition Tasmania had 142,478 inhabitants, and New Zealand 603,361 (an increase of 15,975)... Lhus.the total popu- lation of Australia was 3,546,725. In Australia proper the number of persons to the square mile is less than1, in Victoria it is 11.79, in New South Wates 3,373, in New Zealand 5.788 and in Tasmania 5,402. New Zealand still shows a remarkable low death-rate ; in 1878 it was only 10.29 per 1,000; in South Australia 12.62, New South 15.45, Victoria 15.70, Western Australia 17.11. Wales 13.15, Queensland 14.56, Tasmania. The excess of births over deaths varies trom 106.4 per cent. in Victoria to 211.8 per cent. in New Zealand. Che total excess of arrivals over departures by sea in 1887 was 64,856 for the whole of Australasia, being greatest in New South Wales, where it was 23,516, whereas in South Australia, there was an excess of departures amounting to 2,384. Over the whole of Australasia there was a decrease of immigration as compared with the previous year amounting to 5,671.
Another National League.
A year or two ago there was founded in Paris a Nationa) League against atheism. Many of the foremost men of France in politics and literature headed the move- ment, not to advance their particular re- ligious persuasions, not even to maintain Christianity, but to redeem their country from the reproach and danger of refusing to acknowledge the Deity. Roman Catho- lics, Protestants and Jews, were driven to act in common tostem the destructive tide of godless materialism. They have now established a journal, La Paix Sociale, as their organ to aid in their cenflict with the evils of atheism. Whea Republicans, Com- munists and Rouges on both sides of the Atlantic are glorifying the memory of the men who adopted as their divinity a God- dess of Reason and suppressed other wor- ship, it is well that all who reverence the Deity should band themselves against the modern successors of the atheists of the great Revolution. The state of turmoil and anarchy to which they have reduced France shows in a striking manner that godless men cannot even guide their human, ma- terial affairs with safety.

The Domestic Monthly for July, ISSS.
Every number of the Domestic Monthly re- cently has had 100 illustrations of new cos- tumes, or more than that number. The July issue is no exception. It is one of the most interesting summer numbers of a magazine that was ever issued for ladies. Every variety of summer costumes, wash dresses, bathing, tennis, boating and travelling gowns is fully illustrated. The practical hints for inexpen- sive warm weather toiletts and fresh combi- nation of laces and ribbons are worth more than a whole year’s subscription price. The literary department is filled with charming short stories and illustrated articles. A qua- druple supplement of fancy work design on a large working scale is given with the number. The usual editorial departments are well filled and Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher has a chatty household page.
The Domestic Monthly is published at 853 Broadway, New York, at $1.50 a year, post- | paid, with $1.00 worth of patterns to every | subscriber.

Calmly Rowing to His Death.
The coolest and most determined suicide this city can remember was that of Walter P. Hamberry’s last evening by drowning. Some few minutes past eight o'clock last evening the visitors to Prospect Park, who were enjoying the refreshing coolness of this delightful spot, saw a boat apparent- ly floating toward the dam. I was dusky at the time, and inthe dim light it was barely discernible. Naturally the sight of a boat about to go overthe dam caused more or less excitement, when a closer look revealed the fact thata man was in it, It was also evident that he was much cooler than any of the spectators, as he rowed a full regular sweeping stroke which sent his skiff through the calm waters as cleanly as if cut with a knife, and leaving in its wake just afew bubbles whose rapid collapse served to remind the would-be suicide of the rapid approach of his earthly career. His last stroke was taken almost on the brink of the dam; the force of it sent the bow of his boatacouple of feet over the edge, where it seemed to poise for a second and,then glided gracefully into the seething, foaming surf, beneath where the occupant found a rest from the cares and troubles of a world which had not many pleasures for him.
The spectators of the ghastly scene made still more terrible both by the coolness of the man andtheir atter helplessness to avert his awful doom, gave a sigh of mingl- ed horror and relief when the dread event was over and watched eagerly for any trace of him, but nothing was again seen. The boat was tossed about like a feather, and appeared to be badly wrecked, but the rapidly approaching darkness soon hid even this reminder of the death scene from sight, and as the park had lost its pleasures for the visitors for that occasion at least. it was soon deserted.— From the Holyoke Democrat.
re Bedding Piaces of Pigs in Pasture.
It is common for sows with their young to resort to a certain place to sleep, even in the pasture. It is good practice to watch these bedding places, and every two weeks or so scatter a double handful of sul- phur ovef over the bed. This will not only keep the pigs from getting lousy, but mangy as well, and keep their skins and systems in good condition; for a portion of it will be absorbed by the skin, and it acts as an alterative upon the system. Around the lots and pens carbolic acid should be used with no sparing hand, and no money that the breeder spe will return so good an interest. It not only @isinfects from foul orders and noxious gasés, but its free use will prevent cholera and other diseasee if not directly imparted by bringing infect- It clears and purifies the ground and floors, and the air as well.— American Agriculfurist.

One advantage of being ‘* Edicated.”— Freedwoman Lizzie, a good servant, was married to an unworthy husband, and made complaint of his unkindness.

‘* Lizzie, what on earth did Watt say to you to make you marry him ¢”
‘* Law ! Miss Sallie,” answered Lizzie, ‘‘vow know I couldn’t make no answer to Watt when he come co’tin’ of me, ‘cause Watt edicated.” (With guileful wisdom of words he ‘“‘come co’tin’ of her.”) ‘* And,” she continued, ‘the got some on his words out de jogafy and some out de dicshunary.
