The Trouble in India.

Lste English papers bring full accounts of the serious condition in India resulting from drought. The Times of the 27th ult. contains « long review of the situation, Che causes of the first alarm it describes as a delayed and deficient monsoon, a heat go terrible that the tramway hurses were drop- ping in the streets and a single company reported 113 of their animals incapacitated up to date, armies of locusts marching across the Northern Provinces, the plough cattle dying of hunger and thirst in Rajpu- tana, the green crop fields turned into tields f straw throughout large areas in Southern {udis and fresh sowings impossible on the baked and cracking ground, -he nucleus of & pauper population already formed and thronging the relief works in Madras,

and native journalists were in vain demanda- ing restrictions on the exportation of foot- stuffs, lisved to some extent by the failing of rain, «nd by reports that the locust plague is not) sv rulpous as it was represented

hangs in the balance. It is clear, it adds, that the threatened failure of crops extends both to Northern and Southern India, a failure of a general character such as has only once occurred during the memory of living men, and which, if realized, means a widespread catastrophe that must task to the uttermost alike the resources of the Government and the endurance of the people. The cable within the past few days has reported the occurrence of stu- pendous rain storms in parts of India by which hundreds of lives have been lost and an immense amount of property destroyed. It may be that these storms, disastrous though they have been, will save the country from still more terrible evils. These constantly recurring famines com- pletely bafils the effurts and science,of man. The deaths of hundreds of thousands in Hindustan, says the writer, may be silently predestined by climatic conditions in dis- tant trans-oceanic z nes, or by the snow- fall of the Himalayas and Central Asia, six months before a breath of warning reaches the doomed peasantry of India. The last great famine occurred in 1877-8.

Came to Life in His Coffin.

A REMARKABLE SCENE IN A RUSSIAN TOWN, A remarkable acene took place recently in the Russian town of Artyni. Prince David Kertitcheff was afilicted for a long time with a serious illness, which finally brought on a state of coma. The attending physicians, however, after a careful investigation, were The body was laid in an open zive coffin and carried amid great pomp to the church, where a large number of mourners and spectators had con- gregated to honor the remains of the Russian nobleman. At the close of the funeral service, as the archimandrite, in accordance with prescribed custom, bent over the body to give the Prince the farewell kiss, the supposed dead man suddenly lifted himaelf up, slapped the astonished priest twice in the face, and said: ‘“‘Canailie, how dare you bury me without my permission?” The people in the church were panic stricken and rushed to the door. Several women and children in the crowd received severe injuries, The mental and physical excitement proved fatal to the sick priuce, He died three days afterward.

A Day’s Outing. _On Saturday last the 1. C. R. enployes | picnic took place at Point du Chene. Over 3,000 pecple were present, but unfortunate- ly about noon, when things were just as- suming shape for a perfect day’s enjuyment, the clerk of the weather ordered the flood gates to be «pened. A deputation of ~ engineers’ from our Island road went over, ostensibly to greet their brothers on pleasure bent, but really to take in the excursion which the Steam Navigation Co. gives every Saturday on the trim and speedy Northumberland. The sail over from the western capital was charming ; and the more voluble ones of our party were loud in their admiration of the beau- iulf” and the nautical scenery as seen from the deck of the steamer.

News Notes. _ Bad weather is said to be spoiling crops in Austria and Hungary. Nova Scotia gold mines yielded $23 700 worth of the precious metal in June, A 340,000 fishery cruiser for the Dominion Government is on the stocks at the Polson Works in Owen Sound. A shipment of furs to England, valued at $40,000, waa made the other day by the Hud- son Bay Co., from Victoria, B. C.

A despatch from Blunt, South Dakota, intimates that everything is as dry as tinder, avd the people are in continued suspense, fearing prairie fires.

The new proprietors of the Authracite coal mines in Alberta, in the Canadian North- West, are importing a number of the atriking miners from Franklin, Wash., to work their mines at Anthracite,

A Pacitic coast exchange renarke that the Chinese are getting a sure and strong hold in Victoria. They already own the greater portion of three streets, and the other day Fai Yuen & Co, paid $25,009 for a block of land on Government St. .

A consignment of confiscated liquor was sold in Quebec the other day. It consisted of sixty barrels of alcohol, one hundred and sixty cases of gin, four puncheons of ram, and an assortment of Scotch whiskey, brandy, claret, etc. The alcohol brought from $2 to $2.15 per gallon, including duty, and the gin $4 90 to $5 per case.

The directors of the National Rifle Asao- ciation of Americaon Wednesday adopted a motion allowing the use of the Martini- Henry rifle by the members of Canadian or English mfle organizations which might participate in any of the association matches.

Advices from Auckland, N Z, show that a great flood which had the appearance of a tidal wave prevailed at Melbourne, July 13. Houses and factories along the Yara river were submerged. Many small vessels were wrecked. In one suburb of Melbourne 2,000 people were rendered homeless. Business is almost suspended in the city. The loss of life, it is believed, did not exceed ten. It is estimated the total loss to property has reached £200,000. The Murray was rising and floods in the Albury district are feared, Much sickness prevails in Melbourne, attributable to exposure and to deposits of slime left by the flood.

The Montreal Gazettesays: ‘* Unthelist of subscribers to the Langevin testimonial appears the name of ‘‘ Peter Mitchell,” who is set down tur $100. The attention of the Herald is respectfully drawn to the nefarious conduct of this man Mitchell. As the Herald lays it down, a minister should be like Czesar’s wife, above suspic- ion. Now, Caesar could not hold hia wife thus highly if she was getting $100 bills from the P, Mitchells of the time, and if she was to be suspected, plainly the afore- said P. Mitchell must also be open to ques- tion. We look to the Herald to assiat in discovering and exposing this P. Mitchell that he may be properly pilloried for thus seeking to debase the occupsnt of one of the crown’s highest posts.”

Archbishop O’Brien, in his address at the United Empire Trade meeting in Hali- fax, the other evening, made some witty as well as clever remarks aneut the grumbling politicians out of office, who are eternally predicting that the country is going to the os. When a younger man, the Arch- biraop confessed, he used to take some stook in these dismal wailings, and had had in his time dire forebodings lest the final catastrophe and general smash up of the world would take place before his early career could run its full course. But the dies ire never came, and the Archbishop— grown famous and respected like the youn

Dominion of which he is so staunch an

gifted a citizen—-has learned by experience that the pessimism of defeated politicians has to be taken out with a large amount of reserve. But it sounds very real while it lasts.

_-_---

Lonpoxn, Aug. 10.—The St. James’ Gazette takes a very gloomy view of the condition of British trade. In to-day’s issue it says: ‘tit looks as though we have already reached the end of good times. The great decline in exports from Great sritain is undoubtedly due to the operation of the McKinley law in the United States. The immediate object of the law was to hit foreign manufacturers, especially those of Great Britain, and it ss plainly evideat

augll, 6i, wky 3i

that this object has been atvsined.”
