The skill and enterprise of American farmers have been every year diminishing the imports of Russia into Western Europe, and to this competition has now been added that of India, whose export of wheat this year will surpass that of Russia. Competition has forced the price down to the lowest figures known in more than a century; so low, in fact, that Russia cannot grow wheat atthe present prices, and the great inter- est of wheat growing is therefore A The ignorance, poverty, and financial burdens of the peasantry are so great that they do not know how to make proper use of their lands. The latter are already becoming exhausted, and a bad season, added to the cumulative effects of bad tillage, has caused widespread disaster and discouragement among them. The suffering from these causes has gone so far that the Government has interfered for the relief of the wheat growers; banks have been Organized to make advances to pro- prietors and farmers to enable thera to —_—— _ Se A NS A SE Sina te Copiss Two Crxts.

How to get a dinner of great variety— Allow your cook a wide range. From a single acre you can gather 3,000 bushels of prize oysters, if you can have the acre in the right place. This beats wheat raising by a large mejority. The Nord Deutsche Zeitung says that England and Italy will take joint action in the Soudan, und that an Ltalian arimy corps will be despatched te the Soudan shortly, Patti was almost overrun by beggars in Paris—not an uncommon experience in that city. In ten days the demands upon her— in person and by letter—for stated sums of cash, aggregated more than $50,000. British Columbia has followed Ontario in giving womer the franchise in municipal and civic elections, on the seme qualifica- tious as men; but no woman is allowed tu sit as alderman or councillor. Telephonic communication has been established between Paris and Rhoims, a better market. But as the Govern- ment itself is pracizally bankrupt the end of this kind of help cannot be far off. The beetroot industry, after having been stimulated into life by sub- sidies, has now been destroyed by the com- petition of Germany, The great linen trade is fast going to decay by the increasing use of cotton and jute. Flocks aud herds are becoming more and more the prey to various diseases. It will be seen,therefore, that the agricultural condition is desperate, and the commercial situation is no brighter, The Government adds to the general suffer ing by its excessive taxation for the great war expenses of the past, and steadily piles up an enormous debt by yearly deficits, A crisis is apparently inevitable, and is de- ferred by nothing except the immense interests of German investors iu Ruasia, ee «tds. > <> «i Good Advice to Country Boys. Every man who lives in New York and has acquaintances in the rural districte knows that the majority of country boys and young men thiuk that the golden op- portunity of life isa chavee to enter busi- ness in a large city. It is also a fect that country boys who come to the ciiy are reasonably surs to wear away the best yoare of their lives before they realizs that they would have succeeded better had they re- mained at home. The following bit cf advice, which the Nashui/ie American offers is worth preserving for use iv cases of special application. ‘Intelligent boys in the country, how- ever poor, should take comfort. Let them consider their present hardships asa gym- nasivum for the development of their mary qualities of mind and body, Lat the practice industry snd honesty, ‘baie knowledge, cultivate decision of character, suffer patiently and endure cheerfully pri vations and self-denial, labor with a single- ness of purpose, and sireng’ hen their chat- acters by winning success in every under- taking, however small, Let them cultivate habits of thrift, economy and persistency, and their time of influence and power will come—come as surely as effects follow cause, as wealth follows prudence and in- dustry, as intelligence follows inquiry, 4s light follows darkness.” a Put This in Your Pipe. An English paiaaiioe, just past the middle age, found that his pipe, which for many years had been a great conifert to him, was beginning to seriously affect his nerves. Before giving it up, however, he determined to find out if there was no way by which he might continue to smoke with- out feeling its effects to an injurious extent. He accordingly wrote to a medical journal, and was recommended to fill the bowl of the pipe one-third full of table salt, and press the tobacco hard down upon it, as in ordinary smoking. The result was very satisfactory. During the process of sinok- ing the salt solidifies, while remaining porous, and when the hardened luuwip is removed, at the end of the day’s smoking, it is found to have absorbed sv much of the oil of tobacco as to be deeply colored. The salt should be removed daily. iii - > ier = Quite a Difference. ‘‘T see that Archdeacon Farrar will take back about $25,000 aa profits of his lecture tour,” remarked the Horse Editor. *That’s a good deal of mouey,’’ assented the Snake Editor. “Bot John L. Sullivan will clear over $75,000 by his tour. Isu’t that rather a sad commentary onthe tastes of the Am- erican people?” “'T don’t kuow. You see Sullivan has the advaniage of Farrar in one important particular ” ‘Indeed! What particular?’ ‘(He has a better delivery, you know.''’— Pittsburg Chronicle. | en A et ‘**Please help a blind man,” said a feliow with green goggles, as he held a tin cup toward the line of people issuing from the Union Depot, iast evening. ‘‘I always help the blind,” said one of two young men who were passing, and he stopped and taok out a five dollar bill; ‘‘can you get a quarter out of this?” ‘‘I guess so,” said the blind man, fishing out a handful of change and counting out four dollars and seventy-five cents. “Well, John.” said the benerolen' young man’s companion, as they walked on, “tyou're 4 bigger fool than I took you te he.” ‘‘Am J?” said John. ‘‘Yos, you are; that fellow’sa nomore blind than I am. | How could he tell that was a five-doller jbillf’ “Blamed if 1 know,” said John, innoceatly; “‘but he must be mighty near- d stance 0’ about one hundred and fifteen miles, and the transmission of sound is said to be perfect. Five minutes’ conversation costs one franc. Pasteur * paren's were humble and poor. His father was a tanner, and obliged to work very herd to support his family. Nevertheless he superiniended the lessons of his son and sent him to college, being determined to make him an educated man. The family physician of the late Wm. H. Vonderbilt says he was killed by overwork. Mr. Vanderb'lt was possessed of an excel- lent constitution, a fine physique, and great muscular power. He should have lived with these advantages many years longer. Since his father’s death—eight years ago— he has lived, measuring by work and care, fully twenty. This laid the foundation of arterial changes which resuited in the rupture of a large vessel in the brain. Sir Charles Topper.—Another instance of good travelling was the recent tour of Sir Charles Tupper, the bigh commissioner of Canada. Sir Charles was out of Lon- don ninety six days. Daring that time he spent three weeks in cities, and delivered innumerable speeches with his customary vigour and copiousness; yet he got over 20,523 miles, or an average of nearly 214 miles a day on the whole ninety -six days. It is a painful contrast with the recent London weather that all bat one of these ninety-six days were brilliant with sunshine. — London Canadian Gazetie. The death of Mr. Vanderbilt elevates to the administration of his vast estate, says the Brooklyn Zagle, a man of abilities traneeendently greater than hisowr. In- deed it is an open secret that irs genius which guided the millionaire in ali the im- portant details of his multifarious business concerns was lodged in the brain of Chaun- cey M. Depew. Orator, lawyer, lecturer, man of affairs, brilliant in the drawing- room, incomparable on the stump, and sagacious in political council, it would be hard to mention another American who can match the distinguished New Yorker in the verse iility of his power. As an example of what an American may do with himself under the favoring aspects of life in this country, may well be cited Peter Donahae, whodied recently in San Francisco worth $10,000,000. He began life as a blacksmith, and was never aahamed of his first calling. When he built a $25,000 tomb in Ca)vary Cemetery, he placed upon the front a heavy bronge medallion, representing in bas relief a tre- mendous arm, with a heavy hammer in the fist, and underneath the words: ‘* Labor Omnia Vincit.” Over it was the single name, ** Donahne.” His daughter is the wife of Baron von Schroeder, of Germany, and lives in Stuttgart in high social position. In the Memoirs of Gustave Dore some interesting statistics are given with regard to his earnings. It is estimated that between 1850 and 1870 his illustrations brought him $1,400,000. A morning's work has been known to realize $2,000. Bat it was the number of his works, quite as much as the unprecedently high rate of remvaerafion which he commanded, that made his earnings so large. Everything bronght grist to his mill, from Dante to an almanac. He was not actuated by a greed of jain, but hy the desire to establish a monopoy of talent in his own person. About the age of 23 he conceived the plan of illustrating some forty of the great masterpicesa of literature, from Homer downward, and by 1865 he had executed seron. Mr. Gladstone, referring to the British election, writes: ‘It has been a wonder- fai election end will prove that we have gained on the Tories since 1880, if allow- ance is granted us of fifteen seats lost through double liberal eandidatures and fifteen seats Mr. Parnell gave the Tories.” The number of members of the new House of Commons never before elected to Par- liament is $32. This has had ne parallel since the first Parliament under the Ree form Bill in 1832. Itis now seen that the Parneilite strength in the new Parliament will be virtually 100. The solid phalanx of Parnellites proper, bound by oath to vote as the majority decides, lacks but fourteen of that number. This d:ficiency is fully made up by old allies of Mr. Par- nell, and by other Liberals, whose narrow eseapes from defeat have emphasized to their minds the power of the Irish vote. A Carp.
