SITUATION AT MANILA.
Spaniards and Insurgents Active - Dewey Establishing a Short Blockade.
Mawita, July 13, via Hong Kong, July [3.—-An important interview has just been held between Gen. Aguinaldo’s secretary, Legarda, and a prominent local native white mau and the Spauish commander, Capt. General Augustin. The insurgent’s representative urged Gen. Augustin to surrender thecity, asserting that 50,000 insurgents surrounded Manila aud were able to enter it at any moment. Thus far, they added, the insurgents have been restrainsd with difficulty, but if the Span- iards continue stubborn the result would be that the insurgents would be compelled to bombard and storm the city, “with the inevitable slaughter, uuparalleled in his tory, because in the excitement of the bat- tle they cannot discriminate.” Continu-~ ing, the capta:n general’s visitors advised him to disregard the official fictions re- garding alleged Spanish victories in Cuba and reinforcements coming to the Pbili- pine islands, ard proposed a reccacilia- tion between the Spaniards and the Pnilip- pives, noder a republican flag, and a jointendeavor to persuade the Americans to abandon ho-tilities inthe Puil ppines Finally the representatives of the insur gents proposed an appeal to the powers to recognize the independence of the Philip~ The captain general replied fizht, however | opeless the Spanish cause, Legarda then returned to

The insurgents are how bringing artil~ iery around by sea from Malabov, which is tedious and troublesome work. They are alsoobtaining detailed reports of the condition of affairs from the inside of the city.
Admiral Dewey is establishing a more strict blockade, lest it be invalidated by permitting neutrals to visit Cavite and Malabon and seod and receive mails ene closing surreptitiously Spanish despatches. He has threatened to station war ships opposite the city, which might precipitate hostilities, as the Spanish officers declare they will certainly fire on any American within range, regardless of the conse- quences,
The second instalment of American troops is expected here daily, and the Jast detachments are booked to arrive here early in Aogust. Probably military opera tions will be deferred until the September dry season, when it is cooler and possibly then bloodshed may be unnecessary.
A Spanish steamer, the Fuillipinas, has just been brought io here in the hands of the insurgents. It appears she was on the northern coast and escaping to China with a native crew on board when the Jatter revolted, killing the Spanish officers and brought the vessel to Cavite.
The Sonniards are daily employing con - victs to fell trees and burn huts un the out skirts of the town and fusilades continue but otherwise the position is unchanged. The stock of flour is practically exhausted, but the supplies of rice and buffalo meat will last for months longer.

A WORD WITH THE TWISTER
(Boston Herald.)
As England has nct attempted to con- ceal why she seeks to be on tue friendliest
: . terms with us, t si - imported clothe | 5 , there is no special clever
ness in those who seem to think they have made the awful discovery that she is swayed by interested motives. If we should draw nearer to her, it will also be io like spirit. It is scarcely worth while to examine too closely into the reason that has woved her to friendliness toward us in Our present struggle. It has been of the utmost value to us, no heed what in- spired it. About the service rendered there is not the shadow of adoubt. It i- otherwise with the motives to which it is attributed. This persistent snarling at England in certain quarters i+, under tle circumstances, in execrable taste. Pe- haps the publicity accorded it is not wholly free from a suspicion of interes:ed motives. Ata time when she is isolated in Europe, it might have been more to her advantage to side with the powers, tha: only required ber acquiescence to dictate the course we must pursue. She said “Hands off!’ Why look n gift lion, or, for that matter, a loaued lion, in the mouth ?

EXPERIMENTS IN BARLEY AND OATS.
(St John Telegraph.)
The experiments in barley and oats which were made at the Nappan govern ment farm last year yielded some interest— ing resuts. In barley, teats were made of twenty varieties of s8ix-rowed and six~ teen of two rowed. The land on which ihe tests were made was a eandy loam, the previous crop being beans and corn, Fer- tilizer at the rate of 250 pounds an acre was It was made up ot 225 pounds of complete fertilizer and 125 pounds of bone meal mixed together. This was d illed in with the seed which was sown at the rate of two bushels per acre. In ddition to this fertil.zer 500 lbs. per acre
f common sail Was used for the purpose of checking the growth ot weeds, On the six-rowed sorts the salt was sown broad~ cast and barrowed in be’ore seeding. On the two-rowed varieties it ws8 sown broad-~ cast when the grain was two u2thes high. There was 00 noticeable difference in its valn2 as a preveatative of weeds between the two modeg of application. The straw was all unusually bright and free from amut; the salt apparently was very bene- ficial in this respect. The seed was sown May 25th and 26th, at the rate of two bushels to the acre.
The highest yield of the six rowed var-~ ieties was 52 bushels to the acre by Men~ surt: the lowest was Succeer, which gave 34 bushels to the acre. No less than 13 varieties yielded 40 bushels ard upwards tothe acre. The second place was ‘aken bv Oderbruch, which gsve 50 bushel-; the third by Royal with 48 bushels; the fourth by Vanguard, 46 bushels, and the fifth by Odessa 46 bushels.
The two rowed barley was less prolific, the higbe-t yield being Duck Bill with 41 hushel+: next came Canadian Thorpe Newton and Nepean, all yielding 40 bush- elstothe acre, and af.er them Danish Chevalier with 39 bushels to the acre. The poorest vield was R gid, 21 flushels © the acre. Ten out of sixteen sorts tested yielded 35 bushels or more to the acre.
