WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7.
Mzarts are reported .to be much
dearer in‘England than in this country, especially taking into account
the relative purchasing power of
money in other things. The London
News recently sent a reporter to the
Smithfield market, the great wholesale meat depot in London, and it
wag found that mutton brought 22
cents per pound by ‘the carcass and
25 cents per pound for. a leg. The
best joints of roasting beef are 114 to
12 pence, or from 23 to 25. cents.
Beef, by the side, brings about 15
cents per pound, This accounts for
the large shipments of American beef
to the English market, and the increasing scarcity of the article for
home. consumption. Were it not
for the bread and meat products of
the United States, England would
be driven to ‘the verge of starvation.
James GoRDON BENNETT'S generosity is complimented by .an Eastern
journal, which says that he has a
..ptincely fortune and spends it extravagantly, but there seldom comes
an appeal from distressed humanity
that he does not hear and respond
, to with generosity. He gave more
to relieve the distress in Ireland than
was given by any other individual,
and his name usually appears beside
the largest contribution when a call
for help comes frow the masses. His
gift of $7,000 to the aid of sufferers
from the Ohio floods is the largest
yet noted. ‘There are few more gen\ erous‘men in the world than James
Gordon Bennett. .
> Tux Alta says: ‘‘Nevada is not
in such desperate plight as generally
supposed. Her increase in population from 1870 to 1880 was at the
rate of 46,53 per cent., and, although
the population of Virginia City and
other mining towns has diminished
sinde 1880, that of the pastoral and
agricultural regions. must have increased, Nevada is becoming a great
~—eattle country, and only patience is}
needed to witness her revival from
the decedance into which she fell
when her principal mines gave out.”’
A wrattHy San Franciscoan is
preparing to engage in tobacco culture on an extensive scale in Fresno
county. He will this season plant
about 200 acres which will be under
= the charge of an experienced tobacco
grower. The Fresno Expositor says
that tobacco grows luxuriantly on
the irrigated lands in that county,
-and asserts that the quality will
" equal-the best grown in any ane: ‘of

An immense warehgpse, half a
mile long, to be owned by the Nevada Bank of San Francisco, is new
building ‘on Carquinez Strait, near,
Porta Costa. Three wharf franchises
have been secured, and a wharf wil]
be built stretching along the shore
three-fifths of a mile. THe warehouse is to have a capacity of 60,000
/ tons of grain, and will be finished in
time for this year’s crop. ,
SPEAKING of extremes, Mrs. Minor
says: “I have known a lady who
wrapped herself iu furs and flannels
until she could not enter her carriage
door without a good push from her
coachman, In Japan the.clothing of
the body is thrown off with as little
embarrassment as we feel in removing a glove, and there baths are frequently taken in public with infan= tile innocence.”
An English mechanic has invented
a horseshoe composed of three thicknesses of cowhide compressed in a
steel mould and subject to a chemical-preparation. It will last longer
than a common shoe, weighs only
one fourth as much, does not split
the hoofs, requires nocalks, and is
very elastic.
Tux proposed new charter for the
¢ity of San Francisco was beaten at
Saturday’s election. The latest inMfermation received here is to the effect that there was a majority of
about 60 votes against it.
“Yxs, ” said the fair but false youag
vocalist to Bumbleton, ‘‘that is an old
English song with a refrain.” “Ah!”
replied the crusty critic, “that just
suits me. Refrain from singing it.”

A Spoken Newspaper,
a
The latest Parisian idea’ is a spok: . M
en daily newspaper. A hall or opera
house of moderate size is to be hired,
asmall admission fee charged and
every evening a variety of brilliant
talkers will rehearse the events of
the day. The solemn talker, concise, striking, and inventing new
phrases, will-discuss political questions, Thena bright news talker
will describe the accidents and
crimes, He will say, for example
“I went down to the house in such
and such astreet where a Husband
had shot his wife with a revolver.
The hair of the. victim was sucha
color, the wounds were so deep. I
ascertained all the facts myself.”
Then the legislative reporter will reproduce the dehates—with the personality of the speakers and a description of the scenes and lively encounters. Then would come anecdotes and incidents in the lives of
were attracting public attention, A
lady would give an account of the
latest dinner partyin full, with a
brief description or Mlastration of
the decorations and ‘toilets, The
dramatic and musical critics would
then do their parts, followed by the
advertising man with personal illustrations of the man or woman before
and atter taking the pulmonary syrup or the efficient hair restorer.
With stereopticon pictures, sent. by
the new telegraphic process, of fires,
floods, railroad accidents, new buildings, balls, carnivals, collisions and
all of the chief events of the day, it
would doubtless be popular—at least
as long as its novelty lasted.

The Terrible Storm.
Wiggins, the great Canadian Prophet, has predicted that! the very
deuce will be to pay between the 9th
and the 12th of the present month.
The windows of the -heavens will
open, rains will, descend, floods devastate the peacoful valleys — of
America, and the wild winds will go
forth seeking who they may devour.All this will commence on
Friday next and will continue until
Monday morning—unless Wiggins is
mistaken. It is not worth while to
worry about it,.but the chickens
should be taken in and no family
wiehing hung out, on Friday forenoon, and a good stock of groceries .
‘aiid provisions should be accumulat.

Tris proposed to organize a fire
insurance company in Boston with a
capital of $1, 000, 000, one-third of
which shall be spent for apparatus
to be used in extinguishing fires. It
is argued that it is cheaperfor companies to protect their own risks in
the heart of a largé sity than to depend upon the city to do it.

very bow-legged man, with a short
coat on. “Oh, ma!” she cried,.
