I'khdkay k Co's Soap Works, Humboldt street, Viotoria, nol8dw The increase of the Kussian armies on the frontier against Austria and Prussia, reported by telegraph a few days ago, was effected at the beginning of the month. The encampments near Vilna, opposite tho cities of Koenigsberg and Gurabin- nen in Prussia, were increased by considerable numbers of all kinds of troops. The 13th division of horse, composed of twenty-four squadrons and sixteen cannon, was, in a body, moved from Moscow, its former quarters, to Lublin, in Poland, north of Galicia, or Austrian Toland, All these movements of troops were made previous to the Czar's visit to Berlin.—Ex. The eleotion of M, Sadi-Oarnot to the Presidency of the French republic, like the election of' M. Grevy before him, is a triumph of moderation. In one way it is a disappointment, for it is a very natural feeling whioh requires that the most eminent citizen of a republic should be its chief magistrate, and it would be absurd to pretend that the new president answers to that description. In our own history it has not been the rule to elect the most distinguished American to the presidency, nor even the most distinguished member of the prevailing party. "Washington was no doubt the first citizen of the country, and John Adams and Thomas Jefferson wore the leaders of their respective parties. But since the earliest days of the republic eminence and personal strength have not counted for everything, If they had, Webster and Oalhoun would have been candidates for the presidency and Henry Olay would have been a successful candidate. The test that has been successfully sustained by M. Sadi- Oarnot is the same that has been applied for two generations to American aspirants. It is the test of "availability." Into the application of it there enter many considerations quite irrelevant to the ability, the force, and the character'of the Men. N. Y. Times. Ths meeting to hear the views of the members of parliamont who have come to this country to promote arbitration as the means of adjusting international difficulties was n very significant and important meeting. In Boston a similar meeting has been held, at which the gentlemen spoke, and at whioh the Governor of tlie State, Senator Hoar, ex-Governor Long, the Mayor of Boston, and the colleotor of tho port cordially responded to the ob- ject and spirit of the English mission. Its reception by the president has* been equally hearty, und the significance of themission is the more impressive because of the negotiations between Mr. Ohamberlain and his associates from both countries which are now proceeding in Washington. Ther ■ is a universal feeling that any scr ous difficulty between this country and 1. /;land would lie a kind of unnatural and fratricidal quarrel. Our civilization and our institutions are at fault if, honestly desiring peace and goodwill on both sides, we do nc equitably and honorably secure peace and good-will whon troublo arises. Where documents are uncertain, and arrangements obscure, and different understandings justifiable and natural, thore must be of course concession and forbearance tolecurc mutual intelligence. The object of fair negotiations under such circumstances is not victory, but settlement Now as this is tho strong and permanent feeling on the part of the gnat mass of sensible Americans and Englishmen tho mission of Sir George Campbell, Mr, Stewart, and Mr, Creamer, whose colleagues have returned to England, is most timely and itasonable, Its object is to secure what we all wish to have secured—a settlement by arbitration of all differences between tho countries. This purpose they would effeot by a treaty providing for suoh settlement, which they hope may be speedily negotiated. Another great meeting is contemplated in Philadelphia, and we shall take duo note of the progress of the good work. - - Horper't Weekly.

The last of December we kill pigs for the year's supply of lard and bacon. Instead of killing threo or four 300-pound lioR-r excessively fat, as was the former custom, we kill twice the number of pigs that will weigh 150 each net, and have been fed but a few weeks on corn. Instead of putting down a barrel of fat middlings as my father did, we fill a three-gallon stone jar, as the only use wo make of pickled pork is to cook a small piece with vegetables to season them. Our pigs are all made into lard and sausage, except the hams and shoulders, which are trimmed closo and put into sweet pickle for six weeks, and then cured with liquid extract of smoke. The sausage is put into cloth bags three inches in diameter, and all, except what we shall use in two or three Weeks, is treated with the smoke, which will keep it sweet and good until warm weather. The shoulders of these pigs are almost as lean and good as the hams. I like the new method of curing much better than smoking, as it does away with the risk of Are ana thieves in the smoke houso; for the meat can be hung in the garret In the house, and insects will not disturb it To cure tho meat, we sponge the liquid on it twice, at an interval of a week, and it is well to make a third application aftor the weather gets hot in May or early June. We are just using the last of our hams at this date (Aug. 1.), and they have hung all Summer in the wood-house loft, with no canvassing or protection from flies or other insects, and have kept perfectly. This the second year we have cured our meat in this way, and it has given excellent satisfaction. My receipt for sweet pickle for either hams or beef, is one and a half pounds of salt and one pound of brown sugar to each gallon of water. Good sorghum or New Orleans molasses may be used in place of sugar, but the weight should be the same as that of the salt The meat should be sprinkled or rubbed over with salt, and allowed to lie a day or two, to extract the blood, before the pickle is applied. The pickle should be boiled and then allowed to cool beforo it Is poured over the meat -,♦ Adulterated Milk. Tho presence of water in milk waa onco thought to be easily detected by the lactometer. This instrument showed the Bpeciflc gravity of the mixture, but it was found that cream and water were so nearly of the same specific gravity, that milk could be skimmed of part of its cream, and by adding a certain quantity of water, be brought to the specific gravity of full milk. There are in use some simple methods of analyzing milk to detect the presence of added water, coloring matter, etc,, but the general tendency now is to make laws, requiring all milk to contain certain percentages of solids, made up of fats, caseine and sugar, ranging in totals from eleven and a half to thirteen per cent The former is the Knglish, and the latter the Boston standard. It has heen found that milk can be adulterated in the cow quite as easily as in the can, by obtaining cows that naturally produce large auantities of poor milk, and by feeding tern poor, watery food. Under former laws, if it could be proved that the milk had not been tampered with since leaving the cow, it was merchantable no matter how poor it was. rattening Early. There are advantages and disadvantages in beginning the fattening' of swine or other animals early in tho fall. If the process is not begun until late it must be inirriod Into tho oxtrwmn cold weather, when a considerable percentage of the looil is required to produce bodily heat By fattening the animal earlier, the percentage of food required for bodily heat is reduced. During severe weather the appetite of the animal is lees vigorous and its digestion leas nearly complete, due to the effect of the weather upon its body in general. Aa the profit is increased by rapid fattening and good digestion, we increase the profit by fattening while the weather is mild. Also, tho Work of attending to the animals can be more economically done in mild than in severe weather. But on the other hand, there is greater risk of disease, especially anrong swine, by fattening in Warm weather. This, however, is not great when the animals are given a variety of wholesome food, pure drink, and clean Quarters, and these produce the cheapest ttesh as well. treed ot salt All kinds oi, itock need salt, says an authority, but It la especially'necessary for milch cows, and It is important that it be given regularly. If left where they can get it under shelter, they will only eat what they need, a little almost dally to supply, the small percentage of salt found in milk. As long as a calf gets milk aa even a part of ita diet it has no craving for salt, and probably does not need any. Regularity in salting cows increases the flow of milk, but if obliged to eat more than they need by having salt mixed with food, there will be at first an increase in milk production, followed quickly by a decrease, and often seriour injury to tho cow. Working of Stud Hone*. There are not many ownersof valuable ■tud horses who care to run the risk ol accidents which might arise from working them, causing a blemish of some sort "wt would materially affect the demand t their fuWre services, Few breeders .Iter to pnt mares ti;horses having a blemish, no matter if lt Is caused through accident There Is no occasion to pamper .unions during the winter. Exercise is essential to health, so by all means let them have plenty of oxercise. Few entire horses in this country but have been broken to harness, and those which have not should be. They can then be driven a considerable distance each day, at regular hours In a light rig, to harden their muscles and aid their digestive organs, Cars of Sheep. On many farms the sheep are regarded as better able to take can ol themselves than the other stock, and, consequently, ire left to pick Up most of their living as best they can. while lt is true sheep Will stand exposure ahd lack of proper food without perhaps, showing the effects so plainly ss other stock, still it is poor economy to keep then without the food and shelter required to havo them thrive constantly. Unless they do this, they are not a source of profit snd If a farmer Is not so situated that he can handle sheep In inch a way as to bring him nrofiuWa returns, he will, of course, be Ifttt* q« without them. _1_.-u_ ' ^ A Danish Soup.

"Treatment by Absorption bas for some time been recognised by Medical Men to be the most simple and effectual means of conveying lo Diseased Oigans, "Curatives," but In cases of KidnoyUlReaao and Complaints attendant thereon successful treatment was practicably Impossible un* til the Introduction of the Starr Kidney Pad.

Whv is the snag boat not sent up to elear it away! Sinco writing the above Mr. Ohisholm, our member, has succeeded in getting tho snag-boat ordered out to remove tlie dangerous snag. It is probable Capt. Grant will leave to-morrow morning to proceed with the work. There is a promptness about this affair that smacks off business. TkeV. M.C.A, Koinns. In consequence of the retirement of Mr. Turpin, Mr. A. E. Baud has been appointed general secretary of the Y. M. C. A., and Mr. T. M. Cunningham financial secretary. Mr. Gage attends to the reading room, which is open irs UBual in the afternoon and evening. Messrs. Greig and Clow have boon appointed to conduct the religious ox- eroisoB. The reading room is well supplied with papers and books, and strangers are cordially invited to call and mako themselves at homo. Onr Dirty Streets. The city has a gang of men at work making the crossings passable and raking up some of the surplu, mud. If the city would put in a few new crossings on Columbia stroet it might be possible for' ladies to make a crossing without soiling their skirts or wetting their feet. If the present counoil wisher; to carry with it, at the expiration of its term, tho gratitude of a long suffering and slow to wrath people, these crossings will be renewed before tlie end of the year. The disgraceful condition of Front street also calls for the attention of the council. The Bailway Break* The running of the C. P. B. trains is still very irregular and uncertain. An eastern train arrived lost night about 10 o'clook, bringing delayed mails; but to-day's Pacific express has been cancelled. The washout near Nicomen still prevents the passage of trains, an * passengers and mails have to be transferred over the river there by means of a rope bridge. A large gang of men are at work constructing a truss bridge over tbe break, and it will probably be a week or more bo- fore the road will be in running order. At a meeting of the ball committee last night the secretary reported that Capt. John Irving, of Victoria, had tent the committee 70 flags for decorating the ball-room, Capt.

There i. considerable talk round town at present of forming a sealing company to operate in tho northern waters. Some of our citizens who are alive to a good thing don't seem to relish the fact that vessels are being tent all the way from Capo Breton to engage in the fisheries, nnd show more enterprise in benefitting by our resources than we do ourselves. Oue of the promoters of this scheme has made a model of the sort of vessel required and he is of the opinion that two such vessels car be built for 810,000. There is lots of room for making money in the seal fisheries, and Westminster should have enough enterprise to get up the proposed company. » • . . Bal It's a Pael. A few days ago we published a statement of what occurred on board the str. Princess Louise during a recent trip between Vancouvor and Victoria. In its edition of Saturday the Vancouver Herald asserts that Capt. Leech pronounces the Coumiiian'h statement without foundation, whilo Purser Smith thinks it extremely unlikely; and it concludes that as the item contained a "sorious reflection on Capt. Leech and his officers," tho Columbian ought to tako it back. Our information was obtained from a gentleman who was an eye-witness to the facta stated, and we have no hesitation in accepting his statement us absolutely correct. There was no reflection on Capt. Leech, and under the circumstances wo realiy oannot withdraw anything—even to obligo our saltwater cotemporary. ,. * ♦-. . BklpaMrals.rFI.il. A circular issued by Messrs. Bobt.

The weather for the last week has been clear with fresh gales from tho north-east. The U.S. district court has been in session for the last week, and there has been considerable excitement in town on account of tho soveral murder cases to be tried this term of court. The trial of the man Fuller, who murdered Archbishop Seghers last winter on the Yukon, bos beeu going on for several days. It was given tu the jury some 48 hours ago and up to the present timo they have uot agreed on a verdict, but it is understood they report eleven for murder in the first degree and one for manslaughter. At Juneau it has been very cold for the last ten days with heavy gales from the north. The cold weather has frozen up tho water used by the Alaska Union Milling and Mining Co. so that they have had to close dowu work for the present, and the eold weather reduced the Bupply of water so much that they have had to start up their largo engine to 1*n the stamp. It is reported they have struct very rich ore in one of tlie tunnels of tho Treadwell mine. Thoy have struck a large body of ore In Tunnell mine between the Treadwell and Bear's Nest mino whioh mills 13000 to the ton, and everybody in the camp is going wild over the strike.
