Developing China.
AN ENGLISH OPINION ON THE CHINFSE-AMERI- CAN SYNDICATE.
The Pall Mall Gazette waxes enthusiastic over the new Chinese-American syndicate and has wholly receded from its position of a few days ago. Itis especiaily jubilant over the construction of a railway between Canton,
benefit England quite as muc1 as America or China, and at no expense to ‘treat Britain. It says, however, that the development of China should not be too sudden, the rapid opening of channels of immigration being too serious a matter to be obscured by the dazzle of a _business enterprise, and fears that the estab- lishinent of an extensive system of railways, connecting the interior with the treaty ports would bringh about the dangerous possibility that Chinese labor would invade Europe un- less proper safeguards were employed. With this danger removed by legislation similar to that now in force in America, the work of the syndicate cannot fail to be of immense benefit to Europe and especially to England. The Tea Trade.
The completion of the Canadian Pacific Railway has thrown the Suez Canal route into the back ground so far as the tea trade is concerned. The competition for this trade has formerly been between the canal route and the United States trans-continen- tal lines, but is now chiefly between the latter and the Canadian Pacific. A San Francisco despatch, dated Aug, 8, says:
“The competition for the overland tea busi- ness seems to be intensifying, but the main contest is not so much as formerly between the trans-continential roads and the Suez Canal route, as it is between the American lines and the Canadian Pacific Railway; The Suez Canal routes are known to be now straining every endeavor to keep this trade from the trans-continental lines, and threaten to cut the rate to six cents per pound, think- ing thereby to offset the difference in time. Tea shipments up to date to New York are as follows: Trans-continental, 6,375,376 pounds, Suez Canal, 3,880,944 pounds, thus showing a tremendous increase in shipments via the trans-continental routes from the correspond- ing period of last year.

Mooney’s Bad Record. The London police claim that Mooney, who attempted to destroy the British ‘steamer The Queen at New York, is well knownto them. According to their story Mooney, who was formerly known as, ** Moorhead,” caused the explosion at the Glasgow gas works in 1882, when seven of his accomplices were imprisoned, and was also concerned in the explosion at the local ‘government and Times offices. For this latter outrage an accomplice named Me- Dermott was arrested. Mooney then es- caped to America and subsequently at- /tempted to blow up the parliament build- ‘ings at Ottawa with dynamite. For this purpose he made use of funds which had been supplied to him by O’Donovan Rossa = be used in England. Money then got into hot water with the Canadian fenians. Recently he has experimented with dyna- mite near New York. The blowing up of the Audre statute, the police asserts, was Mooney’s work. They claim that he is affecting the insanity dodge.

Weather Predictions.
Moses Oates, the renowned meteorologi- ‘cal observator, poet, statesman, writer and politician of Toronto, talking about the weather a few days ago said:—‘‘If the _meteorological conditions are favorable we ‘will have, on the whole, general warm summer weather until about the middle of October, broken by two comparatively cool periods, one commencing very soon and lasting from ten to fourteen days, and another occurring in the latter part of Sep- tember and beginning of October. Not- withstanding th s covler weather, I expect August to be warmer as a whole than usual, ‘while very high temperature will be noted in September and hot weather for the season of the year in October. As to 'drouth, there is nothing in the barometric conditions in the far west to indicate any cessation of the present dry spell. August will have more rainfall than July, and what rainfall comes will be in thunder- storms, and we need not look for rainy days until about fair time.”

In Brief, And to the Point. Dyspepsia is dreadful. Disordered liver | is misery. Indigestion is a foe to good na- | ture. | The human digestive apparatus is one of ‘the most complicated and wonderful things in
existence. It is easily nut out of order. Greasy food, tough food, sloppy food, bad cookery, mental worry, late hours. irregular habits, and many other things which ought not to be, have made the American people a nation of dyspeptics. i But Green’s August Flower has done a wonderful work in reforming this sad business 'and making the American people so healthy | that they can enjoy their meals and be happy. | Remember: No happiness without health. ; But Green’s August Flower brings health and happiness to the dyspeptic.

Miraculous Escapes.
(Stellarton Trades Journal.)
While a construction train of loaded cars was passing over the temporary trestle, at Horne’s bridge, six of the cars were precipi- tated to the bottom, a distance of twenty-five feet, and, wonderful to say, although there were nearly forty men on the cars that fell into the gully, the worst accident was one man with a broken leg, and six others slightly injured. Those who remained on the cars were unhurt, those who jumped being injured. Some of the cars that fell remained on the rails. The trestle gave way bodily.
Almost a fatal accident occurred in the new sinking slope of the Drummond works last Saturday by a ‘‘run-a-way.” Mr. Budden, the active managing director, knowing how essential precaution is, appointed the engineer inspector of slopes. Had the latter's instruc- tions been carried out, there would have been no such mishap, as a tripper had been ready for some time to be put in, and no shiftman to do it.
eral Eitan Compulsory Education.
Massachusetts has declared war against ignorance. Compulsory education is to be the rule hereafter. According toa recent census there was 125,000 persons under twenty-one years of age who could neither read nor write. The new law makes it obligatory that such unlettered persons attend either a night or a day school. It is not necessary that the institution should be a public one. The schools pertaining to the varia churches and the parish schools of the French-Canadian popuiation will serve us well as those which are distinctly under the supervision of the State. But some school the ignorant classes must attend. Provision is made for cases of extreme poverty, or where a minor has a family depending on his labor, it being allowable, under such circumstances, to attend an evening school. But it will be necessary fora wage earner to show a permit in the establishment where he is employed, making attendance at an even- ing school the condition of his working in the day time.
Revolution in Hawaii.
There has been a regular revolution in the Kingdom of Hawaii. The King abused his authority, the people protested and by a demonstration of force compelled him to accept anew ministry end to sign a new constitution. The old Premier was arrest- ed on a charge of robbing the treasury, and acquitted. He, however, found it prudent immediately on his acquittal to fly the kingdom. The constitution signed by the King seems in most respects to be an ad- mirable one. It simply secures to the people the liberty which all free people ought to enjoy, and it restricts the author- ity of the King where it evidently needed restriction. The constitution gives Haw- aiians a government which is really respon- sible to the people. That it was ob- tained at the muzzle of the rifle does not weaken it in the least. It was quite clear that King Kalakua required the application of some extraordinary pressure to induce him to respect the rights of the people, and that was applied so judiciously and to such good purpose reflects great credit on the good sense, the moderation and the patriotism of the revolutionists. Greater kings than Kalakua have been torced by a wholesome fear of the results of refusal to grant concessions to popular liberty, and the freedom thus obtained has not been evanescent. It has Jasted and is enjoyed and prized even by those who do not approve of the manner in which it was gained. The Hawaiians will no doubt stand by their Magna Charta.
To Keep the Water Cool.
There are many water coolers and other devices for keeping water fresh and pure for the day’s drinking, but none are of more real merit than the one described below. A com- mon, unglazed, earthenware jar holds the water and is placed in a keg or small barrel, sufficiently large to give a space of four or five inches all around the ‘jar. The intervening space is filled with nice, clean sand to within an inch of the top of the jar. A sufficieut amount of sand should be placed in the bottom of the keg to raise the top of the jar to a level with the top of the keg. The sand is thorough- ly wet once, after which the leavings from the dipper will keep the sanddamp. When filled once a day, the jar will supply good water for drinking purposes all day. This contrivance, though simple, will furnish water nearly as palatable, and certainly much more whole- some than ice water.-—Amevican Agriculturist.
5 saigneeieeesitealiabaneeaet It is reported that during the earthquake in Kentucky, on Tuesday, a tract of more than 200 acres of fine farming land in Trigg county, sunk five or six feet below the level of the surrounding country, and the space was filled tothe depth of three feet by water from springs started by the earth- quake. There is a large pond near the lo- cality, and the region is generally low and swampy. The negroes fled in terror at the phenomenon.
