General Telegraphic News.

Orrawa, ,Aug. 10.—Sir Gorege Dibbs, premier of New South Wales,saysthe World's Fair directorate treated Australia in a scur- vy manner. They promised space for the special building to contain the Australian exhibits, and having coramitted the colonies then repudiated the agreement. Had not New South Wales spent one hundred thou- sand dollars already in collecting exhibits, the government would wash its hands of the whole business.

Frepericron, Aug. 11.—The success of the Kingsclear creamery has already caused the farmers of other districts in the coun- try to think about the establishment of creameries or cheese factories. In Prince William and Southampton, Stanley and St. Mary’s, there is talk of building factories. A number of farmers have now under con- sideration the erection of a large creamery and cheese factory at Barker's Point, in Lower St. Marys. It is said that Thomas Beacher has offered the grounds necessary for the buildings,

New York, Aug. 10.—Professor Picker- ing, of Harvard, telegraphs from Arequipa, Peru, that he has observed two large per- manently blue areas near the equator of Mars, about half a million square miles in area, or one-half the size of the Mediterra- nean sea. On June 23rd,a small dark spot appeared in the southern snow cap, length- ened rapidly, and early in July was one thousand miles long, dividing the snow in halves. Sixteen hundred thousand square miles of snow melted during the past thirty days, being apparently transferred to the seas across the land. Many other changes were noted, including rapidly changing white areas and green areas neag the poles.

When the line agsin be- came taut it snapped and the boat cap- sized, and poor Willie was: throw out and almost immediately drowned. About twenty boats, including two tugs, have been employed in dragging the river for the body, but without success up to nine } o'clock to-night.

Toreka, Kan., Aug, 10.—Since issuing his regular July crop report, Secretary Mohler, of the state board of agriculture, has received advices that a large part of the corn crop ia the central and western parts of the State is in so critical a con- dition that it will be almost a complete failure unless copious rains fall within 48 hours. Abundant rains fell the latter part of July, which it was presumed at the time would insure the crop against danger from drouth. Since that time, however, no rain has fallen, and the weather has been in- ‘ensely hot. In addition the hot winds } have been blowing with their usual deadly effect upon corn. Secretary Mohler says the crop shows a strong vigorous growth, but that the ears cannot maters under the present conditions,

—Emineut scientists have been investi- gating the cause of the recent av slanche in Switzerland, which destroyed three villages. They have agreed that it was net owing to the falling away of a glacier, but having located the first break of the disaster they differ as to the motive power which set it going. Some hold it was the accumulation of water in a concavity of the ice ; others, that the origin was of a volcanic pature. These latter say that the earth oscillating on its axis has caused all of the long series of disturbances which have been witnessed lately in various quarters of the globe. If this theory be not accurate it is at all jevents interesting,
