Bradstreot's has published some figures relating to the cost of fencing in the country which will prove of interest to our farmers. In 1871 the Unitod States board of agriculture found that there were (ive million miles of fencing in the country which had cost one billion seven hundred and forty seven millions of dollara, Since that time according to Brad- street's estimate at least an additional million of miles have been erected at a cost of $361,365,000, m;king [y graad total of cost in exgess of $2,108,000,000.

' fIn Neuces county, Texas, eighty thou- and acred are inclosed'in one pastute. by a-barb fence. In southern Mis- souri thirty. thousand acres are being enclosed as & dog- -proof sheep pasture. But the largestincloged pasture in the world is that of Jthe Maxwell grant in New Mexico, on which over two hun- dred miles of wire fence are in use, and seven hundred thousand acres held in one enclosure, Some of the inner enclosures on this front are ten miles square, 1tis & dwgraco that tho manufac- ture of an article of such importance to our farmers is in the hands of a gigantio monopoly, who are’ enabled to extort enormous profits from the sale of thejr product. ;The validity of the “Washburn patenta is to be tested in‘the highest courts 'of the ‘ation, open to censure as law-breakers. Any one who has read the Omaha papers can prove Lo his own satisfadtron the truth of this statement as applied to Walsh's public rpeeches. When the testimony comes in before the jury that is to try ‘him for offénses against the peace of tho city, 1t will be seen hew much our citizens are in- debted to E1 Walsh for the peaceful preservation of order since the com. mencement of the trouble twe wcok- ago.

OTHER LANDS THAN OURS. If the report is correct - the Irish home rule party in parliament has under eonsideration a proposition to pay each of its niembers who may boe returned at the next election £300 per annum. The fund for this pur- pose is proposed to be raised by levy- ing a shilling a year on esch home rule voter, any deficit in the amount required to to made good by the land league. TH& adoption of this plan, it is ¢! onght, will tend to harmonize the dissensions of the home rulers and in- sure a more prompt and general}at- tendance of the Irish members at the sossions of house, = As is well known, the members-of - the British house of commons receive no salaries or other compensation for their legislative ser- vices. Tt was the original prastice tp pay. the members for attendance upon the sessions, but this custom was dis- continded more than ‘two hundred years ngo, the last instance of the pay- ment of ‘‘wages” to a member having ocourred in 1681.: Tt has ‘been held that this - ancient: compensation imight atill'be claimed without a new omfolmnnz to revive the former usage, In 1870 a motion for leave to intro- duce a bill “‘to restore the ancient constitutional practice of payment of members” was rejected by a yvote of 211 to 24. Honor and ‘influénce would thorefore seem to be the only immediste considerations of a selfish character to induce the average sub- ject of Queen Victoria to seek a seat in parliament, although there have been charges that ‘‘secret-service moneya'’—or, as we should 'less pe- litely call it in this country, bribes— have been occasionally recblved ‘by members for their aid in ' oarrying through' private Lills, . The master of. the rolls publioly expressed his beliof in<1870 ‘that no “private bill; if ‘op’ and it is to be hoped, that the proof of the existence of \barbéd wire feno- ing before its protection 'by letters patent to the Washburn monopoly may prove safficient to ensure tho free mauufacture of this necessary and money-saving foncing material, ~ ES——— A prurow named Ed Walsh iy the leader of the Omaha rioters, and. t! papers desaribe him as's nckl.:c md worthless character, without any property interest in the ity or else: wherg, 'The troubles have . been quieted, and the authovities ‘are pick- ing up the ring:leaders shen they can !t‘y hutd. on thm;.v:lv:% wil:l try ll;tl:m or inciting riet, wil ) hide away until he can slip JnP:‘::f rhi town, and his poar dupes will be left to sulfer the penalties “which' should be visited upon 'him.+Kausas: Qity ournal, :\ud whit " Owighs qiapers emcribe t'in’ this F«va wne; in .t ration e tpg.._ Mm ‘of“the ‘weknowl- sd Iendan of |hn lsbur movdom [rbis “follow named EQ “,;l,.h" reckless ' and wmlhl!ll Shfl'fln{:r £ o ithout ‘any prdperty ia r)q: hl-evlwrol fi 0 knows Walsh, ent of the Jou\'Ld i tak fromad¥] Hoxald; which/ dcdb\llon’} 6 & “lwdurel PML'N‘ with} igny is not lulled.

Europe.' ‘So soon, however, ' as the necessity of choosing betwixt more cordial rela- tions with Russia, to the disadvantage of England and Turkey, forced ' Bis- marck hard, the elaborate creation of oraft and blood came to the end of its domination. With Russia intrud- ing. at the Quirinaland the Klysee, there is no doubt that the German chancellery recognizes a graver crisis for the parvenu power of the Hohen- wllern than the fortuitous encounters with unarmed Austria in 1866, and undrilled and unled France 1n 1870, War with the Russia and France of to-day means an equality in men, ammunition and other conditions which the German armies have never been called on to face, Ivis the re- cognition of this which delays so long some docisive vxpression from Berlin. On a mere suspicion in 1875 that France was preparing for a war of revenge at an indefiantly remote day, the legions of the empire were held ready to march, Ruesia has gone far beyond preparation, She has per- mitted her foremost general to talk, Aud even threaten, and still Bismarck makes no sign. 1f war is not raging between three or four of the great powers by the middle of May, it will he because Germany has abdicated her place to Russia.

There is no doubty also, that apprehension is! felt at Berlin of ‘the speedy resumption of office by Gambetta upon his return to France. Liater news from Costa Rica con- firma early advices of the fearfal de- struction wrought by an earthquake in' that oountry. Four entire towns are reportod as destroyed and several thousand lives lost, Costa Ricais the most southern of the five small’ Span-* ish republios which pass collectively under the title of Central Amer- ica. With an area of 21,495 aquare miles, it:has an estimated popalation of 200,000, made up of people of Spanish, Indian and mixed descent. The government was established in 1823, and has succeded much better than Spanish-American governments commonly do. It has a representative legitlature and a president, - elected every four years, The danger, that may result: from “‘The Ohannel Tunnel” to the British Isle still remains a subjoct of discue- sion betweén her majesty's valiant de; fondera. ' Lord, Chelmsford' has re: oently: declared that at all- events it will necensitate the watch and gunrd of regular soldiers “‘always ready, if twp or three enemies should come “to turn them out.” . However, Sir John Adyle ‘is courageous enough to declare that ““The Tunnel” does not present to bis. mind the prospect of any greater danger to the country when it is'com- pleted, if ‘it ever should be. A nar- row boring twenty miles long under : the sea, snd terminating in a smali hele in England, does not appear to be very diffioult of defence or destruction if an enemy was 80 foolish as to at- tempt an invasion in that way. The mortality among the men at work.on the. Panama canal is fright- ful. + It has‘been found necessary to build ‘a canal' hospital at Aspinwall. It is ptated that 78 canal officers and ovar 1,000 Jaborers have died there up to date, though as yet the actual dig- ging of ‘the canal has not been .com- menced., 1€ a0 many have died in the preliminary; work, it is ‘probable ‘that the loss of ife'will exceed 20,000’ be- fore C.hd ‘oanal i cump’etafl The B':ynoh pxolymng mwluuu have been 'proved Jailures, and. & contraoct: has been made iwith anAmericanfirm to,| excavhts * 0,000,000 °‘ciibic’ meters zhrough the s amps from| Aspinwall to Gatun at a cost of §1,800,000. But it will take six months, if notmore, to' build thé éxcavatord, and the actual ‘work' with 'thém will not be com- manced before next fall. | The climate meanwhile continues to be very de- structive, ‘Hundreds ‘af men have landed at Aspinwall in_ vigorous health, only. to fall: within a few weeks, victims of the dreaded fever.

This result is not accomplished in Germany. in less than sixty.eight yoars; in Austria it requires ninety- | t| five years; inSwitzerland ninety-nine; in Italy one hundred and forty-one, and in France one hundred and sixty- gve. It is suggested that the solution of this favorable exhibit may be found in the tables of illegitimacy, While in England sixty.one of every thou- sand children are horn outside of wed- lock; in Italy sixty-six; in Krance seventy-three; in Germany eighty- eight; in Sweden ninety-six; in Den- wmark one hundred and ten, and Aus- tria one hundred and twenty-four; the ratio in Russis is only thirty, There is no doubt that domestic vir tue tells fatorably on the health ani prosperity of a population, and if it may also bo regarded the test of a people’s oivilization.
