News of wars in all directions in foreign lands is coming now by cable.

Ferry, the prime minister of France, in a speech declared the result of the recent elections was a strong approval of the government, and a national demonstration in favor of the republic.

Huckleberries—Well, we have heretofore had a very high opinion of President Arthur. The idea of a man making himself sick eating huckleberries. Fate seems to be against the Republican party in thus giving the Democratic press conclusive proof of the president's incompetency.

The news irom the yellow fever in the south is not reassuring this morning. It has generally reached its worst stage, however, by the latter part of August, when epidemic to any great exteiat. However, there is over a month yet before frost in the south will make sure of its departure.

The last political talk of Judge Jere Black was upbraiding those Democrats who believed in a tariff for anything but revenue. Perhaps the death of half the members of the Democratic party might bring harmony on the tariff question. Judging from all indications that is about the only way it can be brought about.

The divorced wife of Michael Moses lian Away is over in Illinois pros trated from injuries received at the time lier divorced husband kidnapped the child awarded to her custody by the court. But this man, who according to Adjutant General Terrell's report, vol 8, page 13, deserted from the draft, has been libeled by the statement that he sissaulted his divorced wife. His existence is a libel, it is a libel on human nature.

Some of our citizens who are directly interested in the wheat crop objected to the glowing accounts of the prospects in the letters of the editor of the Gazette detailing his trip over the Northern Pacific railroad. These gentlemen are not tolerant. The excursion over the road was a grand free blow-out and you can not expect one to eat and drink of the best and not even compliment the entertainment. Our millers and grain dealers shouldn't interrupt a person in the very act of returning thanks.

A fellow who holds a federal position in Washington, and who lias acquired some notoriety as a gossip writer, recently started a story in the Philadelphia Press that Postmaster General Gresham had violated civil service rules by turning out of office worthy clerks that pets might have their places. The writer of this stuff is about as venal as any office broker or lobbyist at the national capital, his relations with several newspapers having been severed because of his connection with rascality at the national capital. Of course what he wrote acquired widespread publicity. The man he slandered went on in the even tenor of his way, performing his duty and never thought to "authorize a denial." After some days the facts are coming out, and in them, instead of finding anything reflecting upon the postmaster general, there is much to his credit. But the gossiperwill continue drinking O. P. wine (other people's), look wise and gossip.

It was always hard at school when "kept in" for the disobedience of others. It is hard on the reputable lawyers that their profession is so disgraced by the conduct of many that the odium more or less rests upon all.

There are men at the bar here whose character and practice are above reproach. They are known, and the public draws the lino very plainly between the two classes.

It is a duty, however, pienoweto, themselves

these gentleand to their

fV-"\

...

profession to take a decided Bland against the outrages that have become common in OUT local courts. Citizens who are compelled to Tesort to the law believe they muBt employ a shyster else they stand no chance of winning a suit. This is a natural result. Every day we learn of the success of bulldozing tactics and of mysterious influences and necessarily the business man concludes if he must have recourse to the courts that it would be idle to have a lawyer who would not be equal to the ways and means employed by his adversary's lawyers.

Let the men in the profession who have pride in the dignity of their calling take some action that will give the public to understand they are equal to the occasion. A small amount of heroic treatment will prove to be a good remedy. Then there will be no more complaints that business men seek the services of the shysters. Bus inessmen secure the aid of lawyers who have nerve and the Express is satisfied there is no place where the display of that quality would better please the clients of this city than in the mpvement for reform.

Everything was arranged satisfactorily, and the pool is to go into effect September 1, provided, however, that three or four refractory members can be induced to sign the agreement.

How Much Wheat Seed per Acre. American Agriculturist for September. Where wheat is not at all crowded, in a rich, mellow soil, and the tillering is not impeded, the average number of stems for a plant is sixteen. Each one produces ahead or ear, containing on an average, under reasonably favorable conditions, fifty grains. Thus one grain yields eight hundred grains. At this rate the man who sows two bushels to the acre would harvest sixteen hundred bushels per $cre, or elm

much ofrttie^Arttet. Thi average yield of: the cotintry, however, is lfltt uhan fifteen bushels per sere: A bushel of wheat, contains, ordinarily, i»ven bundred and fifty thousand grains: two bushels, one million five hundred thousand grains. An acre of land contains suj&btly above six million square inches. So that each plant has four square inches from which to derive sustenance. Measure that on the ground and see how small it is. Can you expect the plant to make a vigorous groth on four square inches? Can yon expect it to tiller and produce sixteen stems? Can yon expect it to mature sixteen full heads? The result of this,crowding is plain. The plants can not rain nutriment when growing so densely. Some must die that., the others may live.. The strong triumph and the weak succumb, This struggle for life begins as soon as the plants appear above ground. As the plants grow larger, they require more room, and others must give way. and very few, if any, attain a Itul growth. All are cramped and starved Tillering.is impeded many plants do not tiller at 'all, and those that do, tiller imperfectly. The same is true of earing. Full ears can not be expected. An acre of wheat contains abont eight hundred thousand heads. It is safe to say that, on account of.tillering, these are produced by three hundred thousand- plants. Consequently, only one-fifth of the grains sown produces mature plants these plants produce one-fifth the proper number of stems by tillering, and these produce imperfect heads. This is almost entirely caused by crowding.

Two quarts of seed sown on an acre have produced fifty bushels of wheat. Where all the conditions are favorable, the American farmer should not sow more than half a bushel per acre. But agricultural reforms are' never sweeping therefore let the wheatgrower try-one bushel per acre.

A TRAGEDY AT SEA.

rjis U!

Suicide of a Promlneut Clergyman of tilasgow, Scotland. The Quebec Chronicle publishes details of the tragic death of Rev. Wallace D. Sweet, a Scotch clergyman, on board the steamer Manitoban. He was a passenger on the steamship, which sailed from Glasgow on August 3, but showed no disposition of gloomy character during the voyage His terrible mania for self-destruction was only evidenced when the vessel was passing through the strait of Belle Isle, when the unfortunate man was observed to rush on deck with his throat cut, and before anything could be done to prevent him threw himself overboard. The alarm was at once given, and the ship was put about with all possible dispatch. The Manitoban was running, however, at the time at the rate of fourteen knots an hour, and it was therefore nearly half an hour before the body of Mr. Sweet could be recovered. Strange to say it floated on the water, and when brought on board there was still life in the body.

The unfortunate man seemed to have suffered little or nothing by his half-hour's float upon the surface of the sea, but the gash in.the throat was a fearful one, ana had to be stiched by the doctor on board in four or five different places. So determined a case of suicide was it that it was necessary to tie down the sufferer's hands with bandages. It was impossible to elicit a single, word from him with reference to his fearful action. When the Manitoban arrived in port it was suggested that the unfortunate man be at once sent to the Marine hospital. Dr, Rowan, port physician, seeing the weak condition of the patient, very wisely recommended that he be left undisturbed on board of the vessel, in charge of the doctor of the ship. Mr. Bowan was convinced that Mr. Sweet would never live to be removed to the Marine hospital, and so far he was quite correct, as the unhappy man expired six hours later.

Rev. Mr. Sweet was the rector of Borrowfield Established church, Queen Mary street, Glasgow, and is believed to have started on a voyage of recreation.

On the Electric Night, Lord Baltimore will arrive in the Harbor of Baltimore upon one. of the finest steamers afloat, and which will literally be a blaze of electrical illumination. The Royal Steamer will be escorted up the harbor by from sixty to eighty tug boats, four abreast, and each carrying electric lights In various colors. From all sides of the harbor 1 ireWorks in great profusion will be discharged from special barges stationed for such purpose, and thespectacleasawhole will be an unprecedented one.

Arriving in the city, Iiord Baltimore, his Courtiers, Household and Officers will be escorted to the City Hall by a most novel Military Parade-a thousand soldiers covered with Electric Ughts in different colors: horses with electrical plux&es, and the whole city presenting a scene simply Indescribable.

Had Scrofula for Seyenteen Years.

I have suffered from Scrofula abont seventeen years. The disease being mostly confined to my legs and ankles, my shin bones were covered with large ulcers and one mass of rotten flesh, and the odor al most unbearable. All remedies and treatments which I tried .failed to do me any good. At last I began takings. S. S., continuing for about four months, and 1 AM CERTAINLY WELL. I took 8. 8. under the supervision, of a physician of twenty-six years' active practice, by your order. Previous to taking S. S. S I at times could scarcely walk. Mow I can walk all day,-and-1 have to thank S. S. S., and it only, for my cure.
