The oil craze has struck Washington Coun¬ 
ty, Pa., and land holders are asking fabulous 
prices for their property. Farms which last 
month were not worth over $50 or $60 an acre, 
are now held at from $1,000 to $5,000. A 
member of the Canadian Parliament from 
British Columbia, says the attempt of the 
United States to establish a civil government 
in Alaska, is a perfect farce. In Salt 
Lake, President Taylor spoke in the taberna¬ 
cle Sunday. He said that tbe Saints were be¬ 
ing persecuted in Arizona and sent to Ameri¬ 
can Siberia for living up to their religion. He 
characterized Federal officers as sneaks and 
tramps. He did not want blood to flow, but 
there would be a change before long. A 
novel license bill has been introduced in tbe 
Minnesota Legislature. It provides for tbe 
issue of $5 permits to all such adult male resi¬ 
dents of the State as can prove to village 
trustees, town supervisors, or city alderman 
that they are only moderate drinkers, and 
that their families will not suffer through 
their indulgence. Every resident who drinks 
in a saloon or public place must have such 
a permit, aud infraction of the law 
will be punished by a fine . 
....All the Departments at Washington arc in 
trouble over the expenses of their exhibits at 
New Orleans, but the State Department more 
especially The Secretary, in his zeal for the 
cause, sent circulars askme the consuls all over 
the world to send specimens of native products. 
Our representatives abroad seem to have taken 
up the matter with extraordinary enthusiasm, 
and the Secretary of Stare cannot begin to 
pay out of tbe appropriation even the freight 
on the goods that are now arriving from all 
parts of tbe globe. In case the New Orleans 
Exhibition fails, there will be a world of 
trouble. Delegates from the Exhibition are 
now on their way to Washington to ask Con¬ 
gress tor another appropi iation—one of $500,- 
000 —in addition to the $ 1.000000 already 
spent, There is now a deficit of $319.000.

FOREIGN NEWS. 
Saturday, Feb. 7th. 
Across the Atlantic the telegrams from 
Upper Egypt far transcend in interest to the 
English-speaking people all other news. A 
week ego the safety of ‘‘Chinese” Gordon, at 
Khartoum, was considered assured. For a 
year be bad beeu able to resist all a ttacks of 
the False Prophet, by the aid of negro troops 
he bad drilled and taught to light well. Tbe 
advance guard of the expedition under Wol- 
seley, sent to his relief, had just defeated a 
large detachment of El Mahdi’s forces, and by 
means of bis steamers on tbe Nile, Col. Wil¬ 
son, of Gen. Stewart's command, bad gone to 
open communication with him at Khartoum. 
The English advance at Gubat, near Metem- 
neb, were within a hundred miles of that 
place, while the main body of the troops, un¬ 
der Wolesley in person, were only a couple 
of hundred miles lower down the river, and 
Gordon himself reported that he could resist 
the troops of El Mahdi “for years.” What 
was the surprise of all, then, when last Tues¬ 
day afternoon the lightning flashed all over 
the world that Khartoum had been captured 
by El Mahdi on January 26, and that the fate 
of Gordon was in doubt, some assertiug that 
he had been slain in the attack on the town; 
others that he had been captured aud was 
held a prisoner for ransom by the False Pro¬ 
phet; others, that attended by a trusty band, 
he had escaped and was making his way over¬ 
land to Abyssinia; while yet others main¬ 
tained that be bad escaped up the Nile on one 
of bis steamers, and would ultimately make 
his way to Europe by way of Zanzibar or the 
Congo. Down to tbe present time nothing 
further has become known of his fate, and 
each of tbe above opinions has supporters 
still. It is almost certain that Khartoum was 
taken by treachery. A large body of 
El Mahdi ’8 “regular” troops “deserted" some 
time ago, and were taken into his service by 
Gordon; these are supposed to Lave been 
sham deserters. A large number of “dis¬ 
banded” troops entered the town as country 
people a short time ago, mixed with Gordon’s 
troops, and by threats and promises, and by 
acting on their superstitions, induced them to 
join the False Prophet. Little is yet known 
forcertaio, but much is inferred and more 
conjectured. Gen. Stewards 1,500 men, who 
entrenched themselves at Gubut after the late 
battle, are thought to be in imminent danger, 
as they are likely to be attacked by the enemy 
at Metemneh, re-enforced from the trium¬ 
phant army of El Mahdi, before they can be 
supported by Wolseley's army. It is thought 
by many that even the entire army, amount¬ 
ing to little over S,500 men, is in great dauger ) 
as all the hesitating tribes are now joining the 
False Prophet, who has several shrewd 
Frenchmen and other Europeans directing 
his forces, which may attack the English in 
overwhelming numbers . 
...All the English troops in Lower Egypt are 
to be hurried forward to the support of Gen. 
Wolseley: 15,000 English troops, now availa¬ 
ble in the Miditerranean aud at Giberaltar, 
are to be sent on to Egypt: other troops are 
to be forwarded from England to take their 
places; telegrams have been sent, to India to 
hurry forward several “Sepoy’’ regiments to 
Suakim on tbe Red Sea coast of Egypt, 
wbeuce, after defeating Osma Duma, they are 
to march inland to Berber, and thence to tbe 
support of Wolselev. From 15,000 to 25 000 
Italian troops are to land at Massowab. on the 
Aoyssinian coast., which they are to hold as 
a “free city.” and from which they are to 
help the Eoglish. if desired. All indications 
go to show that Great Britain and Italy will 
soon cooperate iu military operationsin Egypt. 
In Eugland indignation and anger are deep 
and loud at the shilly-shally policy of the 
Government which has led to so great a dis¬ 
aster to English pwstige. All parties demand 
that no expense of tuen or money shall be 
spared to rescue Gordon, if alive; or to avenge 
him,if dead, l'he victory of tbe False Prophet 
will cause him to be accepted by the ignorant 
Afncau Manommendaus as a real prophet, 
aud vastly strengthen him among them. 
Wolseley telegraphs that he can not reach 
Khartoum inside of five weeas, and then the 
wet season will have commenced, which will 
prevent active operations. Tne Government 
has telegraphed to him that he is given full 
powers to act as he may see fit; but that he 
must assert British supremacy and rescue or 
avenge Gordon, All Europe expresses sym¬ 
pathy for this modem hero. 
....In England three arrests have been made 
in connection with tbe late dynamite explo¬ 
sions; and it is probable that two, at least, of 
the prisoners are dynamiters. If convicted, 
they are certain to get tbe extreme penalty im¬ 
posed for their crime by tne Jaw. O wing to the 
anti-Irish feeling generated by the outrages, 
upwards 40,000 Irisn meu have beeD thrown 
out ot employment iu London and other large 
cities; and more are being discharged every¬ 
day; white tor Household servants. ‘No IrisD 
need apply” is becoming a rale. Only a small 
proportion of the Irish people, however, ap¬ 
prove of such extreme measures; but, as iu 
other cases, the innocent must suffer w ith the 
guilty. Worse thaD the disaster in Egypt 
and tha dynamite “outrages.” nowever, is too 
general stagnation in trade all over Great 
Britain. In ail tha manufacturing centres 
workshops are closed or running on short 
time; workmen are idle, or working at re¬ 
duced wages, or for shorter hours. Provisions 
are cheap; nut compulsory idleness affords 
no means of buying them. Tbe poor-bou 6 es 
are over-crowded, and still the wretched 
tenements iu the towns are full ot starvelings. 
... France is preparing to advance vigorous 
ly on the Chinese; but she has been “prepar¬ 
ing” to do so tor months back. The naval 
battle near Kae-Luug, Formosa, didD’L amount 
to much; nut a Jaige number of mercantile 
and fismng junks were sunk and many ot the 
crews drowned, and among the sufferers were 
a number of pirates. At present Bismarck 
“bosses" Europe. Nothing of importance is 
done m any part of the Goutiuent or British 
Isles without his assent, or rather, in direct 
opposition to his wishes.

AGRICULTURAL NEWS. 
Saturday, February 7. 
From the Canadian line to tbe middle of 
Texas cattle have been dying in great num¬ 
bers, owing to the extreme seventy of tbe 
weather and the scarcity of feed. Not a day 
passes without bringing to this city telegrams 
telling of heavy losses on tne ranges all over 
the ‘’West.” Occasionally the tale of disaster 
is relieved by assurances that most of the ac¬ 
counts are greatly exaggerated: but these re¬ 
assuring dispatches come from the cattle syn¬ 
dicates and large stockmen, who are unwilling 
to conless losses, as in many cases, they expect 
to sell their stock and ranges at good figures 
while the “cattle boom ’ Bus's. Here is a spec¬ 
imen of numerous telegrams received here: 
“Lawrence, Kans, Feb. 4. — A prominent cat¬ 
tleman, arrived in this city from Trego County, 
in the western partof this Btate. suys that the 
ground is covered w-ith snow several inches 
deep, aud that range cattle are dying at a 
fearful rate. Those owning small herds are 
trying to get feed CDough to save their stock, 
but with large herds this is impossible. Cattle 
are being driven into the surrounding coun¬ 
ties wnerever feed is to be obtained, but even 
then many of the cattle are so weakened by 
disease that they soon die. From ail that can 
be learned, cattlemen in the western part of 
tbe state will lose heavily this year. They 
pronounce it the worst Winter known for 
years.’’.According to the Pharmaceu¬ 
tical Record, there is a turpentine farm near 
Live Oak, Florida, upon which five stills are 
operated and woik given to 250 hands. The 
farm includes 16,000 acres of laud and produ¬ 
ces annually 175,000 gallons of turpentine and 
14,000 barrels of resin.A steer was 
recently sold in Cincinnati weighing 4,250 
pounds. The animal was raised near Decatur, 
lnd., is of fine form, perfectly developed, six 
feet four inches high, girths twelve feet, and 
measures twelve feet in length. It is six 
years old, a beautiful roan, and in perfect 
health.In Vermont, where only $5 of 
a laboring man’s wages are exempt from pro¬ 
cess, a farmer may hold tens of thousands of 
dollars’ worth of property and never pay a 
cent of his debts. In a recent case a farmer 
paid two cents on the dollar, and tbe courts 
allowed him to keep ten sheep exempt from 
attachment, which were worth $ 10 , 000 , while 
in another case a calf worth $1,500 was held 
to be exempt...-_One Chicago packer says 
he shipped to tbe South during tbe first 17 
days of January, this year. 35,900.000 pounds 
of meat, against 19,990.000 for the same time 
in 1884; also about 4,000 more barrels of 
pork and 8,000 more tierces of lard. 
The farmers of Rock County, Wis., will re¬ 
ceive over $ 1 , 000,000 for their tobacco crop, 
which bad tbe largest acreage of any county iu 
tbe State. Tbe crop of 1884 in that county 
amounted to within $181,000of tbe total value 
of the wheat, corn, oats and barley raised in 
the county. It is estimated that 60.000 cases 
will be packed this season. The County 
Commissioners of Ramsey Co . Minn , have 
given the “poor l'urm” to tbe State Agricul¬ 
tural Society ns a fair ground. It embraces 
210 acres, aud is worth $150,000 The place 
is in the outskirts of St. Paul, and has be¬ 
come too valuable for a “poor farm.”. 
An anti-oleomargarine Bill has been intro¬ 
duced into the Miuuesota Legislature. It 
provides against tbe sale of any article of 
food made from unclean, impure, unhealthy, 
adulterated or unwholesome milk, and ex¬ 
cepts cheese made from milk that has been 
skimmed. Violation is punishable by a fiue 
of not less than $20 nor more than $ 100 , or 
imprisonment for not less than one nor more 
than six months TbB second section prohi¬ 
bits the manufacture from any oleaginous 
substance or any compound thereof, other 
than unadulterated milk or cream, of any 
article designed to take the place of butter or 
cheese as an article of food. Cheese made 
from skimmed milk is here also excepted. 
The maximum penalties are $500 tine and one 
year’s imprisonment Tbe third section is 
reiterative, and forbids tne manufacture or 
sale of any oleaginous substance intended 
to take the place of butter... 
. Among the exports from New York last 
week were 726 live cattle and 11,895 quarters 
of dressed beef ... Tbe amount of capital 
invested in meat production in Chicago is $13,- 
006,000, with a total of $105,000,000 in value 
of annual products . Biair Athol, the 
celebrated English sire, earned at the stud the 
enormous sum ot $335,000, whilst bis immedi¬ 
ate descendants won in suikcs on the English 
turf alone more than $86Q,UU0 . Accord¬ 
ing to tne report of the American Consul at 
Calcutta, tbe East Indian about crop for 1884 
foots up 244,000.000 bnsheD, raised on 26,000,- 
000 acres ot laud, or 9 1-3 bushels to the acre. 
_The Governor of Arizona says that Terri¬ 
tory has grass enough lor 5.000,000 head of 
cattle, but fully four-filths ot it is not avail¬ 
able because ol “no water.” He thinks, how¬ 
ever, that most of the country may be made 
productive in tbe cattle interest by means of 
the sinking ot urlcsinu wells. The per 
capita rate ot consumption of sugar ra this 
country for the year 1884 was 51.70 ibs.It 
is said that $40,000,000 will not cover the loss 
caused py toe recent severe weatner among 
Texas flocks and herds- TUis is likely au ex

CROFS AND MARKETS. 
Saturday, February 7. 
The course of prices of wheat during the 
week has not been conspicuous in either direc¬ 
tion. The freer movement of wheat from 
the West and Northwest, heavier reported 
shipments East, dull foreign markets, unload 
mg by several heavy bull houses who had 
been bolding for an advance, all eou-pired to 
suppress prices; yet this was not sufficient to 
result in a serious falling awny. Tbe slight 
advance noted about the middle of the week 
was purely speculative, based, for want of 
something better, on rumors of damage to 
wheat in the Southwest and delayed deliveries 
in that region owing to bad country roads. 
Indian corn was dull and lower duriug tbe 
first half of the week. The influences exerted to 
this end were, first increasing receipts at West 
ern points, heavy shipments therefrom to 
seaboard —notably to Haiti more, w Here a num 
ber of vessel-, are chartered tor corn for Feb¬ 
ruary shipment —light trading iu ibe ex¬ 
changes East ami West, lower cables and or¬ 
ders to sell from abroad 
Oats have been generally quiet and steady 
in price with u tendency to advance on more 
active tradlug in sympathy wub ioru. Rye 
and barley have remaiued steady, tne latter 
showing at times a little more activity.
