It is asserted that,- under certain conditions, tbe bark of the Quillii tree of Cliili posscstns oloaiuing properties superior to those of tlie belt loap. , The tax-collectors' receipts of tho ancient Egyptians were inscribed on pieces of broken crockery. Some of them, from the Britiih Museum collection, have been translated, and show the lax in Egypt"under the early Ceasars.. . i . ■ Considering the fact that many ostronomers lire ioolined to regard Aldyonc, the chief star of tlie Pleiades, as the centre about which the universe revolves, it seems quite curious that many savage and semi civilized tribes have given thii group of stars an extraordinary importance. The peculiar beliefs which they hold concerning it appear to.be of great antiquity. i Ancient Vkobtation Remains from coal beds prove that the ferns, of which leveral thousand species are known, constituted a very important part of the earth's earlier vegetation. They are still abundant, especially in. moist tropical regions. In the Antilles'they comprise about one-tenth of the vegetation; in Oceanica one-fourth or one-fifth; in St. Helena, one-third; in Juan Fernandez, one-half; and in England, one-thirty fifth. I Earthquake Movkhent. —An earthquake always begins with small vibrations, according to Prof.. J. A. Ewing,. and of those whioh follow none stands out remarkably abruptly from tbe rest. The motion is scarcely a "shock" at all, but a " wobbling " of the ground in every conceivable direction. A movement of the earth of aninoh and three- quarters ii the greatest yet recorded by the instrument! in Japan, while the motiona are usually to be measured only in hundredths of an inch, Thu Earth's Cloud-Bkiits.—The research™ of M. Teiaiereno de Bort show a marked tendency of the earth's oloudineas throughout tlie rear to arrange itself in toon parallel ti the equator. A belt of maximum cloudinesi may be traced near' the equator, two banda of light cloudiness extending from ID0 to 35° oflatitute north and south, and two zones of greater cloudiness between 48° and 60°, beyond whioh the sky seems to become clearer toward the poles. These zones have a noticeable tendency to follow the sun in its change of declination, moving northward in spring and southward in fall The zones of dear iky correspond with regions of high pressure. The distribution of cloudiness ii a direct consequence of the course of the .winds. : -, .",.-' -':- i; •" .. Aociddital Atxovn.—The astonishing changes thatimall proportion! of foreign matter will, produce in metals are not necessarily of small practical importance, as very slight impurities in metals for certain purposes might lead to lorioui consequences. Roberts-Austen givei two ■tricking illustrations of this possibility. A small fraction of bismuth in copper will reduce the electrical conductivity sufficiently to oause any submarine cable made with it to become a commercial failure; and the message carrying power of copper cables is said to have doubled siuco the early dayi of telegraphy on account of the increased purity of the copper. Pure gold has a breaking-strain of from sixteen to seventeen ton) to the square inch; but when alloyed with but two. lentil! of one per cent of lead, it will lirr-nk with a slight blow or under a trilling strain. Victims or Mistakem Theories. —"Infancy," Dr. F, L. 0«wald declares, "should bo a period of exceptional health; the young of other creatures are healthier, as well ns prettier, purer and merrier, than the adults, yet the childhood of the human animal aro the years of sorest sickliness; statistics show tliat among the Oaucaaian rices men of thirty have more hope to reach a good old age than a new-born child has to reach the end of its second yonr. The reason il this: Tlio theories of the nvorogo OhtisUiin man nnd woman are eggrogiously wrong, so that only the opposition of their better instincts helps them —against their conscience, as it were—to maintain the struggle for a tolerable existence with anything like succeis, while the helpless infant 1ms to conform to these theoriet —with the above results." Better food and loss of it, pure air, proper exercise and plenty of sleep are the reforms proposed to remedy this condition of things. BY TEtEGRAPH. rnvi.1...

We are afraid our pnuy has been once again in- • that habit of verbal inao- r whioR has so of ten got him „A****M«a»->.'-tW* ex- iieptioci". to s-aallW ijfeuft sweeping ItaMment that Mr. Chamberlain as a member of the fisheries commission, wmropular with all partim both in Canada, and. tiie V. 8. Evidently our ootem. wai "riled" when he wrote the would-be sarcastic little paragraph under notice, and that, coupled with his ineperience, may be accepted as an excuse for his impertinent remarks about this paper. We would honestly advise him, however, not to attempt to write "witty" articles. It is painfully evident that he wai not built that way. The Vancouver Jfetos has been making itself ridiculous, as well as shewing its hand a little too plainly for its own good, by publishing, this morning, certain agreements, together with comments, "at the request of a number ot our subscribers in New Westminster." The Columbian, prior to the passing of the bylaws, published the fullest possible information to enable the ratepayers to vote intelligently upon the question before thorn. By a practically unanimous rote the ratepayers recorded their thorough approval of the scheme submitted tb them. The agreements, etc., which the News childishly flaunts in its columns ore mere matters of detail—the substance nf which we have already published, and which the council by by-law-are authorized to settle between the railway company and the corporation. The Newt has always manifested an itching disposition to interfere in matters belonging to this oity, which concerned it little, and about which it knew leu. Through all this stupid omciouineas—which has always appeared ridiculous, but never reached the climax of absurdity until this last effort—there has been apparent from the first an ill-concealed design, Beneath this last effusion in particular, as well as all the article! of the Newt referring to our Southern railway, can be detected a pretty clearly-defined monogram ontapoeed of thethree letters-O.P.R. The people of New. Westminster who hav. any discernment at all see clearly through the hollow pretensions of tiuNeiat to friendship and intereit in our affairs, and have learned to reid its advice backwards and to laugh at the threadbare maak, which in thii instance has fallen off altogether. A few more such " breaks,'' and " onr subscribers in New Westminster " will be only a dream to be remembered. Mr. Mercier, the present premier of Quebec, manages to keep the political kettle boiling, and to keep himself before the publio pretty ef. fectnally at the same time. He is described by some of his newspapers as ,tka "crowned .king" of .the Frenohreoe, He is regarded as the most Audacious and most successful leader that has appeared in Lower Canada linceiOartier'a dayi In fact he promises to be itrongaw than Car- tier ever was. The forces behind him are laid to be the Nationalist Siirit, and a feeling among the renoh that change, are imminent, and that it behoves them to stand together. Thil conviction finds frequent expression in tbe Nationalist press. At any rate, Premier Mercier, who sprang into power by an adventitious coalition of the Liberals and National Conservatives, and who has alternately wheedled and bulldozed the various parties of the French-Canadian province, appears to be, from a combination of forces —not the least of which is the national ohurch of Quebec, conciliated by his famous Jesuit bill—steadily gaining in power and influence, until he has attained the position almost of dictator, a role which wonld accord first-rate with hii ambition and initincti. In the meai- ttrel pasted by his majority in the legislature Mr. Mercier is constantly coming into conflict with the federal power. The moat important legislation of laat session has been picked ont for ilaughter by the veto power by one interest or another. These an the Jesuit bill, the conversion bill,' the colonization bill, and the Quebec magistrate's bill, abolishing the Montreal circuit court and creating a new tribunal in iti place. Thil lait measure has been vetoed, muoh to the indignation of Mr. Mercier and the Quebecers, who assert that It has been vetoed, not from its merit*, but from racial and political rcaeoni, and the premier hai de- eland hii Intention of fighting Sir John inch by inch on the veto question, with the view of finally carry- tog it to the privy council, when he led. confident be will be lusteined. Themouure, how-fit*, it ii laid, ai- •umed power. Iw the province whioh, under the B. N. A. Act, be- long only to the federal jurisdiction, anrf the veto prerogative in thii in- •tasoa wu currently exercised, while ti, aha tame time it may have been *a* with polsli-il intent. And here is where the present veto power is liable to be abused, lodged as it really is in a partisan ministry, although ostensibly in the governor- general. Mr. Menier's conyersios bill—a solieine for tlie conversion .aft the public debt of the province of Quebec—is just Row exciting com. siderable comment and opposition both in the eastern provinces and from tbe creditors of tho province in England, who have asked the federal authorities to veto the obnoxious measure. Power was asked from the legislature to borrow $20,000,000 for lie purpose of paying off the debt, which bears a much higher rate of interest than money can be obtained for now. This would appear to be. a.laudable, undertaking. Mr. Meroier's bill, however, contained a clause compelling the holders of the, old bonds to take new bonds at a lower rate of interest, or accept their face value. When this was objected to by members of the legislature and by English capitalists, Mr. Mercier gave his written pledge that it should not be acted upon, but has since-declared publicly that he would carry ont the entire bill in spite of all opposition. Altogether it seems that it will require a pretty lively exercise of the veto power to keep the irrepressible little Frenchman in order. The presidential campaign now in progress amongst our neighbors to the sonth has, inter alia, brought out a great deal of discussion on the tariff question. Nearly related. to the tariff question, and largely nourished, tariff reformers say,, by the extreme protective system of the United Statei, are the notorious "trusts" and "combines" about which so much is heard nowa-days. The house committee on " trusts " at Washington has recently been investigating the cotton-bagging trust, a combination which has achieved sudden notoriety in the United States this summer by its outrageous treatment of the southern cotton planters, whom it has in its power. The story told to the committee by the witnesses called before it may be accepted as an excellent illustration of the manner in which all "trusts" are operated, and is, therefore, well worth repeating: In preparing their cotton for the market the planters wrap the bales in a strong material made from jute. This jute bagging is manufactured by eight firms in the United States, and the quantity required for an average annual cotton crop is about 46,000,000 yards. .List year the' price of the bagging was about 7 cents per yard; to-day it is 12J cents, a price whioh the planters find themselves wholly unable to pay. The secret of thii advance in price ot nearly 100 per cent is the formation of a cotton-bagging "trust" the history of which was told to tbe committee by Mr. Urate, of St Louis, a member of the firm which is at the head of the combination. When the ways and means committee decided last March to placo cotton bagging on the free list, the manufacturers organized themselves into n " trust" for the purpose, as Mr. Gratz admitted with a smile ot exultation, of obtaining revenge for such interference with their virtual monopoly of the business. After getting control of the domestic supply the combination lent iti agent* abroad to ascertain the supply which foreign manufacturers could send into the country. Having done this, it refrained from forcing up the price until it was too late for the foreigners to get a chance at the American market for this season's crop. Then it suddenly advanced the price three cents a yard, making a rise siuoe the spring of about five cents a yard, The price is now 12 J cents, and, said Mr. Gratz, "we could put the price up to 26 cents to-morrow, and still control the market." Tbe total world's supply, outside of America, available for covering the present cotton crop of the United States is only from a million and a half to two million yards, while the usual yearly demand is forty-five million yards, Mr. Gratz also told the committee that Dundee bagging could be shipped to the United States—with charges, freight and duty paid—and sold for three cents a yard leu than the present domestic price; and when asked why that wai so, lie coolly replied: "Because the supply and price in this country are in the control of a limited number of persons." Had the "trust" feared any interference with its plans by importations from Dundee it would, he said, have bought up all the foreign supply. In telling his story the witness assumed a half-defiant, half-triumphant manner, as if he felt that he had the key to the situation, The result of the operations of the "trust" is that the planters cannot afford to buy the bagging, and that no cotton will be packed unless pine boards can be used, which is unlikely. Already the brokers on the New York Cotton Exchange are becoming uneasy, for if no cotton is packed then will be none for delivery, and they -/ill be unable to cany out their contracts. The greed ot eight Anns of manufacturer! thus threaten! to upset one of the leading industries of tbe country, md to cause serious loss to ■.large olass of producers. Nevertheless, Mr. Blaine asserts that " trusts " are " private affair* " with which the government of the country hu nothing to do, After all, however, luch a doctrine it precisely what wu to have been ex[ from the champion of an extortionate tariff, Tllfi Republican Chicago Tribune, in an article repudiating it, very truly ssys that " while some trusts derive their facility of combination from natural advantages instead of tariff protection, the most dangerous, most powerful, and most unscrupulous combines find their shelter and security behind the high wall of a war tariff." :*-**a'l'lill'iili ui."
