It is thought, that the prosecution of the Irish Land Leaguers will cost over SSU<M)OO. t A petition for the appointment of a woman on the police force is circulated in Milwaukee, j “ A charge to keep I have,” as the gun said when it was loader] and put away for future use. A married fanner of Knox County, Ohio, 1 eloped witli a neighbor's wife, and within a few days the deserter] husband and wife were married to each other. The common punishment in a Washington public school has been confinement in the boiler room, where the temperature is 110. One little girl was made seriously ill. Locomotives are used in France on canal towpaths. They weigh less than five tons, are easily managed by one man, and draw loaded boats at a more rapid speed than the pace of a horse. Empty boats are drawn at the rate of six miles an hour. A greater speed would damage the canal banks, and is prohibited. In a prosecution for dog stealing, heard at the Middlesex Sessions, in England, the other day. a lady stated that she had had (logs stolen ten times ami for their recovery had . paid upward of £IOO. One favorite pug had been stolen three times, and each time she had paid £25 for its recovery. Leonard Stewart, a Philadelphia drunkard, left his home two years ago with a threat to commit suicide, ilis family subsequently identified the body of a drowned man as his. The other day. however, he presented himself alive and well, but intoxicated, and asked his wife if she wasn’t glad to see him. She re plied emphatically no, and he disappeared again, declaring that this time lie would certainly kill himself. The edict of Joseph Emanuel, King of Portugal, published in 1760, is not without its interest at this time. By this instrument widows of more than fifty years of age were forbidden to marry, “ because,” the preamble recited, •• experience has shown that women of that age commonly marry young men < f no property, who dissipate the fortunes such marriages put them in possession of. to the prejudice of children and other relations.” Spinsters were not apparently considered so liable to be beguiled. Of late the question of tattooing (not brand ing) has been revived in the British army to act as a check against desertion, and prevent the re-enlistment of bad characters. Some time ago, when the desertions were at the rate of 5,000 a j’ear (one had en listed and sold his kit eleven times in two years before lie was detected), Sir James E. Alexander submitted to the Horse Guards a small instrument, with a spring to tattoo in stantaneously, and with hardly any pain, a man above the left wrist. Indian ink rubbed on the punctures left the impression of a neat small Queen’s crown, in blue, the size of a sixpence, and indelible. Sir John Lubbock has made a discovery which may turn out of some importance to our Western fanners. In the neighborhood of the site of ancient Troy Sir John has come across a beetle whose mission it seems to be to destroy locusts by consuming their eggs. Even before they arrive at the dignity of full blown beetles, uMiile in the grub stage of their development, they begin their attack on the unhatehed young of the “ winged destroyer.” The voracit}' of the Lubbock beetle is said to be extraordinary, and some of them seem to be able to destroy the whole crop of “ hop pers,” and have actually done so in certain parts of Asia Minor this season. American fishermen have gencrall)' aban doned the right to inshore fishery in Canadian waters, which cost five and a half million dol lars. They find better fishing at home. The Canadian fishermen are being driven out of the market by the Norwegians, who supply fish that are better cured, and who conduct their business with more enterprise. They fish now by telegraph in Norway. Stations have been built along the coast, and during the herring season, which is at its height for about six weeks, a sharp lookout is kept for shoals. Wherever one is sighted, word is sent along the line, and the available fisher men promptly give chase. The old way was for the fishermen to cruise along the shore, trusting to luck or the reports the}-' might, hear to come upon the herring. Now. every morning during the season, the position of the shoals which are watched is reported and posted at the principal telegraphic stations. The attempt to introduce an organ into the Prebyterian church at Toronto gave rise to a violent row. The question of instrumental music in the worship had been discussed for years, and recently a majority of the session voted to permit the use of a small cabinet organ in the weekly singing school in Hie basement only. The opponents of the mea sure regarded this as the beginning of an abomination, which would next be carried into the Sunday services, and the older mem bers became greatly excited. Brother Me- Michael, the chorister, ordered the organ sent to the church, but when it arrived the sexton refused to open the door, and several young men carried it in surreptitiously by a back way. The music circle met that evening. The Rev. Mr. Kirkpatrick occupied the chair, aud made a short address to the effeot that even an organ might be sanctified for religi ° us purposes. Then the practice of a psalm ior the ensuing Sunday was begun, with an orgqn accompaniment. Only a single verse bad been sung when the venerable Brother Bain, a trustee, entered at the head of a party of anti instrument men, and ordered them to carry out the organ. The young men of the circle rushed forward, and a scrimmage en fmed ; but the old men were stalwarts, and or ran was < V. wu info ?V sir - - \ v:, 4 -< **, -7* fey s: V* c /\ Cnrs ty absorption ntw s way; * ■ .
