JUNES 
THE RURAL 
this year.A cotton mill is about to be 
built at Oakland, opposite San Francisco, to 
work up the cotton now being raised in 
Southern California. It is said Sea Island cot¬ 
ton can lie successfully grown there. 
Col. Boudiuot of the Chcrokees says that there 
is a job before the Indian Council at Tnlfle- 
quah to lease fi,000,000 acres of the best land 
in the Territory to the Standard Oil Com¬ 
pany for live year's at $120,000a year, with the 
privilege of renewal, which means a perpetual 
lease. The tract is valued at ten millions. 
DesMoines, la., May 22, Reports of growing 
crops from to counties, show that, as compared 
with last year the increase in area of grain is: 
Corn, ~)-<j per cent;oats, 10 per cent; wheat 4 
per cent. The condition of wheat and oats is 
good, but the outlook for corn is very gloomy. 
Almost incessant rains, scarcely a gleum of 
sunshine, and a raw and chilly air during the 
week. Much of the seed is rotting in the 
ground and will require replanting, and a 
change of weather is needed before that that 
can be done. Another dispatch of same date 
trom Keokuk says: Farmers are obliged to re¬ 
plant a great acreage of the corn planted. 
The weather remains wet and cold. Early 
planting in sandy soil is doing well. Cats, 
wheat aud grass are very promising.

FOREIGN NEWS. 
Saturday May 26,1883. 
The German Parliament has been prorogued 
in hopes that a temporary adjournment will 
make recalcitrant members more subservient 
to Bismarck’s pet measures for securing taxa¬ 
tion so as to render the Government nearly 
independent of the Reichstag. In case he is 
again baffled in this, it is likely the Reichstag 
will be dissolved in the expectation that less 
independent membei-s may be selected. A 
good deal of independence, amounting often to 
republicanism, springing up in Germany. 
The Czar entered Moscow. Tuesday, and on 
Thursday issued a proclamation announcing his 
coronation to-morrow. Papers here chokeful 
of cablegrams sycoplmutly detailing all the 
minutiae of preparation, apprehension, etc., 
etc., etc........The Pope calls the attention 
of France to the difficulty he has in prevent¬ 
ing an open rupture with that country. France 
is busy making enemies on all sides. More 
troops arc needed for her causeless war on the 
Congo and Niger. She baa just bombarded 
a town in Madagascar, inflicting “groat loss” 
on the wretched natives, and lioldly invaded 
the island. She has also sent more troops to 
Touquin, and is concentrating a large fleet in 
the ( hiuese Sea. Bismarck chuckles, knowing 
that from 150,000 to 75,WX) choice French troops 
will be kept away on these expeditious in case 
ot another war. Meanwhile yesterday’s cable 
announces that Prince Bismarck will visit the 
Emperor William during the stay of the latter 
at Gastahi, aud that if the Emperor Francis 
Joseph goes to Gostein Count Kalnoky, the 
Austrian Minister of Foreign Affairs, will ac¬ 
company him. It is rumored that King Hum¬ 
bert aud Signor Mancini, the Italian Foreign 
Minister, may also visit Gastviu during the 
Emperor William's stay there. Prince Bis¬ 
marck has decided that if his health does uot 
improve he will go to Kissingeu at the end of 
June for a month, and will afterward proceed 
to Gostein.William Chambers, LL. D., 
the well-known London publisher, is dead, 
aged 83 years.The following figures, 
giving the contrast between the expenditure 
per head ou war and education in the various 
European States, which have been compiled 
by M. Leon Donnat, a Belgian statistician,

Ireland over the Pope’s attempt to iuterfen 
in Irish polities. The Parnell fund which lit 
discourages ainouuts to over AM,(XX), aud it ha* 
been decided to keep the subscription list opei 
until £50,000 have been raised. Several meet¬ 
ings were held at London, Sunday, at which 
appeals for subscriptions to the fund were 
made. Here also Irishman are “resolving” to 
contribute liberally to it. The priests are ex¬ 
pected to obey the Pope, often against their 
will, and so will most of the “faithful” in 
the long run..More “informers” and conse¬ 
quent arrests in Ireland. Irish-Ameiicans 
caught with dynamite in their possession in 
London, Manchester and Liverpool are held 
for trial. England is greatly surprised that 
the late legislation wrung from Parliament in 
favor of Ireland, does not at once make the 
latter forget the wrongs of centuries. Hav¬ 
ing heaped all sorts of cruelties and outrages 
on Ireland for 700 years, aud having been at 
last forced to do her a moderate measure of 
justice, Britain is now shocked at her ingrati¬ 
tude in that, instead of falling on her knees in 
thankfulness, she indignantly demauds a di¬
