The sub-committee, appointed by the Committee 
on Ways and Mavis, consisting of Messrs, wood, 
Felton. Phelps, Garfield and Kelley, have reported 
favorably on the bill In trod wis'd some time ayo by 
Representative Hurd of Toledo, prohibiting tho 
transportation of merchandise from one point to 
another in the United states through the Domin¬ 
ion of Canada. The hill also prihlbltn custom ofll- 
cere from sealing cars to be transported through 
Canada and imposes a duty of 30 per cent, atl va¬ 
lorem upon every car manufactured In Canada 
that Is brought Into the United states . In How¬

years, quarreled a week ago concerning certain 
gossip lu circulation; Linda Stephen was Instantly 
killed by Mary Stokes who stabbled her In the 
neck_A report of the War Department concern¬ 
ing the survey for u ship canal across tho peninsu¬ 
la or Florida, from the Atlantic to the Cult of 
Mexico, lust, submitted to congress, Indicates that 
the cradle through the canal would not pay satis¬ 
factory dividends ..The baby elephant whoso 
advent Into this world we noticed In the Bubal, 
made his debut a week ago tn tho circus now ex¬ 
hibiting in Philadelphia. Uebe, the mother, 
walked slowly round the ring, with her baby • 
trotting along between her fore logH. llebe seemed 
anxious to keep the young one close to her. and— 
occasionally pushed him back when he seemed 
eager to go ahead, When she oarne to a halt, tho baby 
ran out, anil gazed curiously arotiud at the crowded 
seats, and raised Lis trunk In the air. After 
gazing a lew momenta, Without fear at, the strange 
sight, the baby returned to hisravortto positions. 
The following are the principal collections made 
by Professor Nordenskjold and bis stafT during 
their recent expedition A rich collection of in¬ 
vertebrate animals made In dredging by Dr. 8trom- 
berg, tbe zoologist; a collection of flowering 
plants, Ucbens and algm, made by Messrs. KJell- 
mau and Almqvlst; bones of the Rhyllna Btollerl,

A torn tic oil Are Is reported to have taken place 
in the neighborhood of Bradford, l’a„ on the Cth 
Inst. About son oil wells and hundreds of thou¬ 
sands of barrels of oil were burned In n short time. 
Several fires which originated almost simultane¬ 
ously a few miles from each other devastated a 
large tract of the country and destroyed every 
dollar’s worth ot property or hundreds of per¬ 
sons. one of tho largest fires originated thus: 
Two men were attempting to explode a nl- 
tro-glyoertne torpedo In a well owned by tho 
Oaksliade Oil Company about throe mllCB north¬ 
east of Bradford. A flow of oil threw tho torpedo 
out of the bole against tho derrick. Instantly 
there was a terrific explosion which scattered the 
building and machinery in a thousand directions. 
The oil caught Are and shot up a blazing column 
a hundred feet high, and the Are soon spread to 
Row City two miles distant. This village was 
speedily consumed and the Inhabitants, about COO 
number, had to run for their lives. 
AGRICULTURAL HEWS. 
bushels of seventeen-year locusts were un¬ 
earthed by Peter Welrlehof North Lebanon, Pa., 
while plow ing lu an old orchard last week, the 
sod of which had not been disturbed for many 
years....After; May 8, the elevator charges on 
grain delivered here by the N. V, Central Rail¬ 
road have been one cent per bushel, arise that was 
hastily announced by tho elevator men and caused 
no hltlo Indignation on the produce exchange 
Crop reports from all parte of Ala., say they are sev¬ 
eral weeks behind, and tho weather Is unfavorable 
....Dr. Asa Filch, tbe well known entomologist la 
dead.... By late accounts the drought la Western 
Kansas Is extremely severe and the new settlera 
are throwing up their claims and leaving to avoid 
starvation. The Kansas City Times says that It 
rain comes not, soon there won't be 1000 people 
left In Ness, liodginan, Lane, Trego, Drove, Wal¬ 
lace, Bherldan and Graham counties, which are 
mostly as yet unorganized on the Western border. 
The winter wheat was klllud by lack of moisture, 
and folks are sacrificing stock and everything 
for food_The Corning N. Y. Farmer's Club has 
formed a sorghum sugar cane association, and 
$1000 have been lately subscribed to the Industry. 
.. Although Ireland, In places, Is starving, she still 
sends a goodly part of her best food to England. 
During one week lately she sent 9,704 cattle; 2,14s 
sheep; 0,311 pigs, besides 051 horses, and tho cattle 
trade la still steadily Increasing,., .The Queen has 
made a baronet of Mr. Lleury Allsopp, of Hlndllp, 
Hall, Worcestershire, the famous Short-horn 
owner_Lord Skelmeradalc, another well-known 
Short-horn owner, and prominently connected 
with agriculture, has also been honored with an 
earldom.. .This was the owner of the late Jlrsl, 
not eighth, Duchess, spoken of hcrclasL week. He 
personally purchased her here In 1873, at tho great 
sale of Messrs. Walloott and Campbell, for $30,cot). 
_In 1879, England had, In Jan., is hours of bright 
sunshine tn ;u days; this year she had 42 hours; In 
Feb., ’79, there were only 39 hours; In Feb., ’80 ,61 ; 
In March, '79, »i hours; In Alarcn, ’so, mi— or 234.8 
hours of sunshine lu the Arst quarter of this year, 
agalnat 137.6 in ’79, and Ml In ’78... The rain¬ 
fall of the quarter, too, was less than half the 
soaking downpour of the same period last year.... 
The Florida oat crop is pronounced a failure on ac¬ 
count 0 / rust....The La. sugar crop is said to be 
the best ever known. About 180, 000.000 are In¬ 
vested In the sugar Industry in La ...The mer¬ 
chants of Manhattan, Kansas, were unable to 
discover who habitually robbed them, until a 
detective advised them to search tho students’ 
rooms in the state Agricultural College. The re¬ 
sult was the recovery of f too worth of boots, cloth¬ 
ing, Jewelry and other tilings, and the conreaslon 
by seven students that they were tho thieves,...

On the fith lust, about 25 canal boats arrived at

Thousands of tons of Ltmbnrger cheese are pro¬ 
duced every season, mostly tn the State of New 
York and Wisconsin, at a cost of less than half 
that of the imported article. It, Ands Its market 
and ts consumed mostly by our German-American 
population. Tt is more proAtablo to the farmer 
and maker than any other kind of cheese, because 
from a given quantity of milk more weight. Is ob¬ 
tained and better prtees are realized_An English 
writer says that In the four colonies Of Queens¬ 
land. New South Wales. Victoria and South Aus¬ 
tralia there were, at the end of tho year 1879, 
0.141.749 head of catt le and 4ft,288,«or> sheep. Tak¬ 
ing one-Afth —the usual average—ot those cattle as 
suitable for fattening purposes, we have a million 
and a quarter, or, making a further allowance for 
animals tailing below the standard, a round mil¬ 
lion of fat hooves yearly. About threA-quarters of 
these would be required for home consumption, 
and no.ooo more for the trade in canned meats, 
leaving for export 200,noo head. At. 780 pounds 
per head, this gives England a possible meat sup¬ 
ply of 160,000,009 lbs, yearly from Australia. * * 
It is stated, too, that under tho encouragement of 
a brisk foreign trade, this production could be 
greatly increased Finlay Dun, the late Loudon 
Times’ correspondent In tills country on agricultu¬ 
ral matters, has Issued a prospectus of a Short¬ 
horn and Jersey show uud sale, at Agricultural 
llall, Islington, London, to be held next Juno 10

Devonshire and Manchester; the Marquis of Hunt- 
ley; the Karls of Huntington, Morton, Cooper, 
Kginont, Zetland, Ellesmere, and llectlvo; Lords 
Bkelmeredale, Cheshatn, Fltzhardlnge and Do 
Feyne, and about 20 other prominent men, among 
them many well-known brooders—truly a fashion¬ 
able lot _ Prof. Wlckershelmer, a celebrated 
taxidermist attached to the Anatomical Museum 
of Berlin, has Just discovered allquid which, In¬ 
jected into the veins of dead meat, not only pre¬ 
serves it fur several weeks Horn dooay, but keeps

tific celebrities to partake of the moat thus tested, 
providing for them, however, other vlaiuls In case 
t he prepared veal should fall to suit their palates.

not up to Its usual spring mark in quality, and in

noticeable. We can merely annex the closing rates. 
Prices are liable to sudden Huctuulioti at tills seu-
