The Bankruptcy of India.

A COUNTRY WITH T00 MANY PEOPLE OVERBURDENED WITH TAXATION.

ly an important work by Hyndman, entitled ‘‘The Bankruptey of India,” it is clearly set forth that at the present time 225,000,000 people are living in India on the product of 148,000,000 acres of land, a statement which shows that India, so far from being able, with advantage to herself, to throw her grain into competition in England with the grain of the Western States of America, it actually unable to feed her own people, adequately, her great and growing export being drawn from her to meet her vast and ever increasing liabilities to England, and giving no commercial re- turn to the Indian people of any class. In this situation no margin is left whatever for increased taxation in India, and it is

AND

officially announced that the burdens im- posed on the Indian Government by the

Burmese war and by threatening the attitude of Russia at the present moment cannot be met by taxation. The relief expected from the remonetization of silver by England or

by an international agreement cannot, therefore, in the judgment of men well

informed on affairs come a day too soon to mitigate the pressure which is beginning to exasperate the Indian population, and which threatens the fabrics of British dominion more seriously than anything since the outbreak of the mutiny of 1857.

Navroji, the ablest living Parsee financier of India, new in London, was brought hither by the stringency of the existing situation to urge upon the Imperial Govern- ment the importance of action. By his elaborate calculations he shows that the value of the productions of the Punjaub, one of the most fertile provinces in India, is at the outside twenty rupees, or $10 of our money, per head per annum.

Lord Roseberry is going to India in October to make a personal investigation into these conditions of tne Indian problem which, in the language of Robert Griffin, head statistician of the Board of Trade, make the solution increasingly dangerous.

The Grave of Shakespeare.

Great interest is excited in London by the alleged mischief doing at Stratford-on-

inconsiderate conduct of the local authori- ties. The subject is as interesting to

America as it is to England, as American subscription have been extensively given to preserve those monuments. Hailiwell Phillipps says: “Everything at Stratford- on-Avon is at present under the control of a few individuals who are unfortunately imbued with the spirit of modernization. No relic of the past is safe at their hands and it will bea public misfortune if con- tributions of money are forthcoming to en- able them to continue the work of deterior- ation. A decisive evidence of this has quite [recently been given. A seventeenth cen- tury monument to one of the poet’s family was not only removed from the church but thrown among lumber and irreparabiy in- jured. This was bad enough, but now a restoration committee propose to remove the stone aud recut the letters, a step by which the authority and biographical value of the original will be effectually obliterat- ed, Another of their intentions is of far more serious importance. It is now pro- posed to build a new vestry on the north of the chancel, a proceeding that will involve the destruction of the remains of the an- cient charnel-hovse and the alteration of one of the immediate surroundings of the poet’s grave. This reckless spirit pervades every work of the kind at Stratford, and unless its progress is arrested it will not be long before every ancient vestige of the Shakespearian town will be either falsified or destroyed.” i

Some Famous Gld Men.

The longevity of faious statesmen is remarkable. Imagine Lerd Palmerston acting vigorously as Prime Minister of England when over 80, governing the vast | British Empire with steady hand, and ‘making speeches three hours long in the House of Commons, and rising next di ay ‘fresh as aman of 40! Think of the ven- lerable Guizot, the French statesman, who, tat the age of 87, was still writing histories, | presiding over religious conventions, and carrying on lively discussions in the French Academy.

The late Lord Lyndhurst made able speeches in the House of Commons when he had passed his 90th year; and his long- time rival, Lord Brougham, wrote his auto- biography, in three goodly volumes, when he had nearly reached 90 years.

The Marquis of Lansdowne, who, as Lord Henry Petty, was a leading member of the ‘‘All the Talents” Cabinet of which Charlies James Fox was the chief, in 1806, was still an active member of the House of Lords nearly sixty years later, in 1863, and died in that year at the age of 85.

The Duke of Wellington took part in public affairs until his death, in 1852, in his 85rd year.

In former generations energetic states- men of advanced years are found thickly scattered through the pages of history. There was the old Marquis of Winchester, who could remember Edward IV., the first York sovereign, in 1485, and when he died in 1572, at the age of 97, was holding office under Queen Elizabeth. a’

Referring to the statesmen of our own country, it is 4 familiar fact that John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, the secon dj and third Presidents, both died of July, 1826, just half a century from the | day on ¥ hich both signed the Peper pwd of Independence, Adaius being 91 and Jef ferson 83. President Andrew Jackson lived to be 82, John Quincy Adams to be! 81, Madison 85.-

‘The Twins of Locaun. STRANGE PARTIOULARS AgOYT THE SUCCKES- SORS TO THE SIAMESE TWINS,

and have one abdomen and one pair ©: between'them. Jacob moves the right jeg, Jobn the left, The twins cannot walk, and keep their balance by lacing their arms round each other’s neck. Jacob eats often and heartily, and is the healthier of the two, and to all appearance it is he who keeps his brother alive. Two days ago the twins quarrelied over a toy, and John grew so excited that his heart-blood suddenly ceased to flow, and he changed to a condi- tion of complete lethargy, from which he had not awoke on the following morning. The boy suffered from the same complaint a yearago in Berlin, and Professor Vir- chow then declared that a recurrence of the lethargy would certainly put an end to the twin’s life. A number of Vienna physi- cians are observing the malady, but they entertain little hope for John’s life, and if John dies Jacob must follow him to the grave. The twins as they lie in their bed offer a strange contrast. Jacob, with fever- ish eyes and a red face, seems to harber all the blood that has vetreated from John’s lifeless body. The conscious boy cries in- cessantly, because he has often heard Prof. Virchow’s remark repeated, and knows that his brother’s death is but the harbinger of his own. The poor creatures are meeting with the same fate that some time ago put an end to the life of the Siamese twins, the second of whom died of poisoned blood ves- sels after having spent six terrible hours with the corpse of his brother. The advi- sability of an operation separating the liv- ing from the dead brother was discussed at the time, but before a resolution could be taken death had done its work. The twins of Locana, who for the last 8 years have travelled to all the world’s shows, were to have left on Tuesday for New York, where Barnum is said to have engaged them for a ear at a salary of 30,000fr. In the event of their death the parents have sold their body to a London anatomical museum for the price of £8,000.”

-Heeping Large Numbers,

iegs

Fowils - By carefully feeding and proper care, a good laying hen may co as mauy as one hundred and seventy-five eggs in a year, but when hundreds of hens are kept to- gether on the farm, the average seldom reaches one hundred eggs per annum. A comparison of the treatment accorded large and sinall flocks shows that, asa rule, the smaller the flock the greater is the variety of food furnished to the individual, while the competition for existance is increased with the number of hens in the same flock. Division into fainilies seems to be a natural and necessary condition of all animals, and through congregating and herding for mutual protection, they pair and separate during the breeding seasons. It is un- natural for poultry to be kept ia large numbers together, especialy during the times of laying and hatching. The small flock secures generally all the seraps from the kitchen and the table, and, as a rule, these contain a large share of the nitro- genous elements (meat, eic.,) than is gen- erally fed to large nuinbers, which partially accounts for the greater production of eggs from the smaller flock. With a large uam- ber, the cost of labor is lessened propor- tionately, and as but few really estimate the labor of caring for a smal] flock, the keeping of strict accounts, charging labor as an item would demonstrate, that there is not such a wide difference im the pro- portionate profit as may be imagined; yet,

as the labor is of but little value until the flocks are large, it is safe to admit that

small flocks are more protitable.-- American Agi icultaurist for September. ~ —ai> +> ~~ io Cutting Rates. The Canadian Pacific Railway is the fly in the vintment of the traus-continental lines.

The Raileray Aye, commenting on a state- ment inaSan Francisco paper that the Canadian road was cuttmg rates, mm some

cases as much as 45 per cent., complains of this competition ‘‘from another country” as unnatural and unwarranted, and ascribes to it mainly the heavy cut that has been made in freight from San Francisco to New York, which it is anticipated will be yet more destructive and will spread beyond the lines now immediately affected. The Age finds it difficult to look upon the action of the Canadian Pacific im undertaking to reach down to San Franciseo from its ter- minus in British Columbia, a thousand miles or so away, and seize upon traffic bound not even for Canadian points but solely for points in the United States as anything else than piratical. Just what is

to be done, however, is not plain to see. The Canadian road has most of the advan- tages on its side. There is little, as yet,

that its southern competitors can ‘do to’ in- It will take practically
