throwing water to a distance, just as the Ancient 
called the engines which they used lor hurling 
stones, catapult. But our Aquapult Is a pump, 
as may be seen In the Illustration. It weighs 
only nine'pounds, and Is very compact. There is 
a stirrup tUat slides up and down the cylinder, 
adjusting the depth to which It Is desired to Im¬ 
merse the cylinder. This Is a great convenience 
because the pump mo y he used In a pall, spring, 
or running stream, while the foot holds It. firmly In 
place and the hand and arm are free to exert their 
full strength in pumping. The uses to which the 
Aquapult may be put are many. It Is a small 
fire-engine for one thing, throwing a stream as 
high as the windows of the second story. Noth¬ 
ing could be better for washing windows, and for 
Bprlnkllng (lowers, vines, and for general use In 
the garden, it Is excellently constructed (mainly 
of brass) and as It la suppUed by The Rural has 
a discharge pipe, two nozzles, and three feet or 
rubber hose. As It Is only necessary to send ten 
subscribers at $2 each, to possess the Aquapult, 
we think that many might employ a spare hour 
profitably In canvassing and earn an Implement 
that is almost always In demand about the house 
and grounds.

The season for contracting that disagreeable 
and really serious disease, Catarrh, Is at hand. 
Dr. Sykes, ol Chicago, has a remedy that ho offers 
this week, lo which he has the greatest confidence. 
He has the most positive assurance of those who 
have tried It that It will do all that Is claimed for It. 
era are using prime limed in preference to risking 
low-priced fresh.

Hops.-E mmet Wells says in bis circular: *The 
continued heavy export movement has canscd h 
further advance on choice new hops of 3 cents per 
lb.: sates having be*n effected ibis w ek at 43 cents, 
and bids as high as 45 cema made in some instances, 
but declined by holders. While It H acknowledged 
on all atdea that hops are *• buoming,” a slight feel¬ 
ing of uncastneaa pervades the trade, holders uni 
rhippei* generally wondering what effect the heavy 
arrivals will produce iipmi me Loudon market. It 
is believed that a decline in the price there would be 
instantly left here, though wo think there Is not 
tmien to fear on this score, when taking into ac¬ 
count the great shortage in Kngtand, itutl the small 
amount we have yet to spare for export. Oar brew¬ 
ers are Just beginning to wake up to a realUing 
sense of the situation, and are feeling around to see 
what they can buy: they find but few good bops 
offering below 10 cents, while 45 is generally asked. "

subject of slavery have adopted, by a vote of 16 to 
5, a report proposing that slavery be abolished 
in Cuba, hut that the negroes who are enfran¬ 
chised shall, during a maximum period of five 
years, continue to work for their present masters, 
receiving not less than ti) pesetos per month. Be¬ 
yond the capture of the iluascar and the seizure 
of Antofagasta, Chill baa accomplished little in 
Its war with Peru and Bolivia, but she has been 
fortunate in carrying on the war without Us Inter¬ 
fering with foreign trade or the development of 
internal resources. About one-third of her ex¬ 
ports are from her mines, and the mineral pro¬ 
ducts exported from the Republic In the first six 
months of the present year were $ 8 , 371.437 In value, 
against $7,888,257 In the same period last year, an 
advance of five per cent. Wheat stands next 
among chLUlan exports, and the area of wheat this 
year is tho largest ever sown, and promises to 
yield an export of twice the usual value! The Im¬ 
ports are steadily Increasing, chill, so far, has 
fought the war without a loan, and the payment 
of Interest on the public debt has been continued, 
hut payments to the sinking fund of 2 per cent, by 
which the debt Is to he eventually redeemed, 
have been suspended. 
A number of Russian Nihilists, seeing that their 
views are not practicable ror the present, and only 
bring upon those who hold them useless martyr¬ 
dom, have declared themselves, in proclamations 
addressed to the people, as simply Republicans. 
This declaration has been very badly received by 
the real Nihilists. The party seem, for the present, 
at any rate, to be shrinking sadly, owing to the 
largo numbers of the most prominent members 
transported to Siberia, the great many who have 
abandoned It, at least temporarily, owing to the 
present prosecutions of Us adherents, and to a 
considerable emigration of those who prefer to 
abandon their country rather than their opinions. 
The canton of UVl Is the only division of the Swiss 
RepubUc that has thus far readopled capital pun¬ 
ishment. Now another canton Is considering the 
expediency of taking the same step, and it Is a 
-significant fact that ol all the Swiss cantons these 
two have been the most backward In respect to 
public school instruction. Statistics officially com- 
plled for the German Government show that the 
present population of the empire very considerably 
exceeds that of 1816. in 1875 it was 42,727,360, for 
the whole country, of which Prussia had 25,742,404, 
and Bavaria 5,022,970 ; In 1816 the population of 
the whole country was 24,831,396 ; for Prussia, 
13,706,978, and for Bavaria, 3,607,036. The figures 
for the other and smaller states are in about the 
same proportion, being on the average an increase 
of nearly 100 per cent, notwithstanding emigration 
and war. 
In France the question of the hour is the rela¬ 
tion of the government to the amnestied Com¬ 
munists who have just returned from penal servi¬ 
tude in New Caledonia, whither they were sent 
rov the crimes they had committed during the ex¬ 
istence of the Government of the Commune in 
Paris in 1871. A few of them have escaped, like 
Roc kefort, since the date of their transportation; 
a large number have died; some of the woist 
criminals are still imprisoned, but the large hulk 
or the survivors, having lately been pardoned, 
have returned to France, glorying In the deeds for 
which they were punished, violent In their denun¬ 
ciations of the government which condemned 
them and arrogant in thotr demands that the 
wretches still unpardoned shall be liberated and 
honored for the part they took in the Communal 
troubles, some or them have offered themselves 
as candidates for office in cities where the rabble 
have much power, and one of them has been 
elected to the national legislature from a section 
of Paris mainly inhabited by the working and 
criminal classes. The government seems resolved 
to punish severely any outbreak or denunciations 
of these fellows, who delight to pose as mar¬ 
tyrs to liberty, which with them means license. 
The monarchists and imperialists are cheered by 
the action of these retui ned convicts, inasmuch 
as their extreme violence tends to alarm the quiet 
masses of the people, who, ui their alarm, might 
be tempted to prefer a settled and peaceful despot¬ 
ism under a King or Kmperor to a factious repub¬ 
lic. with the dregs at the top instead of at the bot¬ 
tom. 
The Inundations In southern Spain are far more 
disastrous than reported last week. Whole prov¬ 
inces of rich country have been submerged, except 
tiie high places. Immense numbers of stock of all 
kinds have perisUed. Almost all the crops have 
been destroyed; buildings and ‘•improvements” of 
every description have suffered very - severely, and, 
worst of all, a large number of people have met 
their deaths. Already, 2,000 corpses are reported 
to have been found and tho tale Is not yet all told. 
Subscriptions to relieve the distressed are flowing 
in from all over Europe, and from this country also. 
Bilions persons should avoid the use of cof¬ 
fee, and nervous persons the use of tea. An agreea¬ 
ble and healthful substitute Is found In Cocoa. 
Walter Baker & Co.’s Chocolate and Cocoa prepar¬ 
ations are highly recommended by the medical 
faculty, and are sold by all grocers. 
Nothing Is uglier than a crooked hoot or shoe *
