A

aspout 80,000,000 BUSHELS MORE THAN WILL BE HARVESTED WILL BE WANTED.

The New York Times prints the follow- ing from London: *‘ It now seems to be a fact that the old world needs fromseventy million to eighty million bushels of wheat more than the harvests of the year will pro- duce. ‘To put it in another way, the coun- tries which always have te buy wheat must this yea: buy some 370,000,000 busheis, while countries raising more than they con- sume will have about 295,000,000 to sell.”

The annual international grain market held in Vienna gave estimates of the yield of the world, which varied in a few r- ticulars from those already given, the chief differences being in unimportant countries, On the other hand the real state of the French harvest seems much worse than re- ported at Vienna, and the same is even more obviously true of England, and the English must now import at Teast 170,000, - 000 bushels and France 68,000,000 bushels. We understand here that the United States aud Canada can be counted on to supply about 103,000,000 bushels, Russia 90,000, - 000 and India 35,000,000, but in these latter countriesthere is much more un- certainty than in the former. It is evident that somebody must cut down the consump- tion of bread, and that there will be fierce competition for the possession of the grain markets onthe continent, which have been showing an almost steady rise for the last ten days, with few fluctuations, asa result of th» declines in America. Asa rule prices have been higher and advances sharper in Paris than elsewhere, but yester- day London and some English provincial markets distanced all other spurts of the season by a sudden advaycee of from six to nine cents per bushel, upon last week's prices for foreign wheat. Already the northern workhouse authorities have their hands full with an army of Irish laborers, who are accustomed to come to England for the harvest. This year they find no work for them to do, and the laborers have no means with which to get home. What adds to the sinister aspect of the outlook is a failure of the potato crop in many parts of England, and all along the west coast of Ireland. This alone would have made a bad winter. Combined with dear bread it is gloomy enough.

Wonderful Submarine Warship. _ The New York Herald’s Paris special says: ‘A new submarine boat intended to revolutionize naval warfare is to be launch - ed at Toulon on Septembér 15. She is designed by M. Ramagote, a government engineer. She is so constructed as to be able to dive completely beneath the keel of the largest Ironclad, and by means of a special apparatus fasten explosive cartridges to the side of an enemy’s vessel and is en- abled to maintain communication with ex- plosive cartridges fixed by means of a steel wire by which the cartridges can be ex- ploded by electricity. This new engine of destruction combines all the requisite con- ditions of speed, steering capacity, sub- mersion, emersion and habitability. The vessel is 17 metres long between perpen- diculars and 1-80 metres beam. She is enabled to dive under water to any given depth by means of a series of reservoirs that receive water in variable quantities. Reservoirs of compressed air allow air for breathing purposes te be renewed at will. Horizontal steering is effected by an ordia- ary rudder. Vertical steering is effected by a double rudder workiag on double hinges attached to the sides of the stern. A little cupola, 25 centimeters in diameter, is built on her bow. It is ia this cupola,

} provided with glass windows, that the

ofticer in command directs the vessel. The entire crew is one officer, two enginers and:a sailor. The motive power consists of Kreb’s electric machin», fifty horse power. Other engines are provided with compressed air apparatus.

An Important Operation.

Particulars of an extraordinary surgical operation are cabled to the New York Herald from Berlin. A man was so severe- ly burned that the skin would not grow of itself over the wounds. _ No one volun- teered to supply cuticle for the purpose of transplanting, and the patient was too weak to stand the operation of transferring skin from the uninjured parts of his own person. A corpse was brought in, and strips of skia cut from it transferred to the burned man. The despatch says that the grafts grew and all is going well except the unpleasantness to the patient ct knowing that he is 4 piece of human patchwork and that he will be obliged to go through life in the skin of a man who is ‘* moaldering in the grave.”

Apvick To Moruers.— Mrs. Winslow’ Soothing Sy: up should always be used when children are cutting teeth. It relieves the little sufferer at once; it produces natural quiet sleep by relieving the child from pain; ‘and the little cherub awakes as ‘bright. as a button.” It is very pleasant to taste. It soothes the child, softens the gums, allays all

ain, relieves wind, regulates the bowels, and is the best known remedy for diarrhea, whether arising from teething or other causes. Twenty-five cents a bottle. Be sure and ask for Mrs, Winslow's Soothing Syrup, and take no other kind. (April 1 °88

The Mackerel Market. Boston, Sept. 1.—The interest in mack- erel is not quite as strong as it was early in the season, though the supply is by no means in any better shape than it was then. But dealers have come tothe conclusion that mackerel are generally out of their reach, and hence the market is neglected, though still very firm. Not many mackerel are being taken by the fleet, and it is now entirely safe to conclude that there is not the slightest possibility that even the limited figures of a year ago can be reached this season. Inthe matterot prices the market is very steady. The jobbers cre

uoting plain 3s at $16; rimmed, $17; 2s, $19: bay 1s, $21; island Is, $24. The last Halifax steamer had only about 400 barrels of mackerel. The most successful vessel of the fleet of late was one which sailed from Boston early in the week, and caught off Thacher’s Island about 100 barrels, which she landed here. A fleet of Pro- vincetown vessels has been cruising around for the week, and they have only obtained about 20 barrels each. The very small ar- rivals at this port of late have sold readily at $20 for large, with bullseyes at $25.50, Small mackerel have sold packed at $14.50. The arrivals from the provinces of mack- erel continue as light as ever. The total importations since Jan 1 now amount to 15,690 barrels ; same time last year, 29,787 barrels; same time in 1886, 18,145 barrels; same time in 188e, 20,522 barrels. The total number of barrels of mackerel landed by the New England fleet for the week was 2.348 barrels; same week a year ago, 8,346 barrels; same time in 1886, 2,549 barrels. Since the season began the fleet has landed a total of 19,992 barrels; same time last year, 39,405 barrels; same time in 1826, 40,083 barrels. same time in 1885, 227,333 barrtls.

Effects of Mentai Idleness.

Mental idleness is sure to lead to mental ruin. He who will not exert his thoughts, who lets them passively receive whatever ‘influence may ehance to fall upon them, will soon luse the chief power which makes them vaiuable. It is an easy habit to fall into, and one which each persun needs to guard against—that of listlessly reading, or listening, or dreaming instead of actively thinking and working up these influences into ideas and convictions that are worth holding, because they have been justly earned. Itis the vacant mind, where no good seed is struggling upward into life, which will soonest be covered with weeds.

A Victoria, B. C., despatch says: ‘* Mr. Joseph Spencer, of London, Eng., who re- presents the Christijn Temperance Com- monwealth of that city, has made arrange- ments with the Provincial authorities for tle whole of Malcolm Island, two miles lcng and twelve miles long. It is intended tc populate the,island with selected families from. England, giving them houses and giving them every expense in life im return for eight hour’s work a day from the head of each family. Mr. Spencer leaves for England in afew daysto lay the matter before his superiors. The scheme is novel and intended to relieve distress among families in England.
