Nebraska shows an increased acreage of 14 per cent., wnue tne yield shows 14 per cent, and the livestock 40 per cent, increase. Indian territory shows 10 per cent, less acreage and yield, while live stock shows an increase of 40 per cant. In Kansas, Missouri and some- - parts of Texas the crops have been injured by heavy rains, while in Indian territory and part of Texas the drouth has proven detrimental, but the promise is altogether for the largest yield ever recorded. The business failures of last week throughout the country, as reported by K. G. Dunn & Co., number for the united States 233 and for Canada 18, or a tot tl of 251, as against a total of 234 for the week befor. showing flu increase of seventeen failures. The whole iucre ise appears to arise in the Pacific states and territories, where the casualities are more numerous than have Iweu reported in any week for years. An eccentric character in Milwaukee, known as the "Count," (who has just been am sted for swindling a bank in fcweden, distinguished himself . particularly by spending as much as $1,000 a week for wine. One way of. accomplishing such a feat was to use bottles of champagne as tenpins, and smash nearly a case of Chquot at one "strike. The cholera has been decreasing in France, and there are few or no cases in Italy now. A curious statement is made with regard to the swallows aud sparrows about Marseilles. They all left when the cholera broke out. They returned a day sr two since, but did not stay. To-da- y none are to be seen. The authorities are talking of building great bonfires to purify the air.

Then the changeable spring weather that has played such sad havoc among the con- sumptives and the weakly generally, and has been so favorable to an Kinas oi ais-eas- es of the air passages and respiratory system, has given place to a warmer tem-iwmtnr- A and leas fickle changes.

Two deaths are reported from Willimantic , seven cases, i i 1 m si a l. three fatal, are aiso reported irom ooum Manchester ; cases usually severe are from several towns in the south western part of the state. The indications arc that the disease is spreading and is rather increasing. 1 TtirVifhfi-iA- . is Inks prevalent than in the spring, but shows a slight increase over last month.

Cheshire reports one death only. Granby but three, one from old age. Haddam is reported unusually healthy, and whooping cough and measles as the only disease prevalent in Stafford Springs. Ridgefield is pronounced unusu- ally free from disease, and the same, with the exception of malarial diseases, could be said of several places. Nervous diseases have been unusually prominent for June. Thus New Haven ro.rwwta 03 rlontlm Ifi from onnvnlsionn and in many towns cases of meningitis and cerebro spinal meningitis are report- ed. These are all in the part of the state Who-r- malaria hfls lnnor hmn prevalent. That there is some causal relation in case of cerebro spinal meningitis is more than probable. The relation to nervous dis- eases in general is certainly quite constant. A fatal case of sunstroke is reported from Waterbury ; one not fatal from Som-er- s, while instances of persons overcome by the heat or partial sunstroke were oft- - ener mentioned. ' me table indicates an unusual number of accidental deaths. To tViAHA mnnt Via added two from South Man chester, one from drowning, one from a brosen oacK. Mate Walker, of the schooner Julia Ba- ker, who has been personating Captain Lewis the dead master of that vessel, at Key West, Fla., was on Monday arraign- ed on the charge of running away with the vessel and disposing of her cargo. The testimony proved that the master was sick when the vessel sailed and continued so for six days. On the sixth day the man at the wheel eaw the captain fall from his chair in the cabin. He was picked up by the mate and steward and laid on a mat- tress on the cabin floor. They adminis tered something to him from a bottle. The master died in a few minutes. The mate immediately changed the vessel's course so as to reach the Bahama Islands. She was originally bound for Trinidad. Arriving at Fortuue Island, the mate sold the deck-loa- d of lumber and then went to Inagua, where he sold some flour and bread. The vessel was then taken to an uninhabited island, where she met a small schooner. The meeting had probably been arranged at Inagua. The latter ves- sel took on board 120 barrels of flour and departed, the mate, Walker, going with her. Walker returned with her in five days, having been able to sell only twelve barrels of the flour. He gave the small schooner twenty barrels for the service and she left. The steward ran away in her. jumping on board over the Julia Baker's stern. The latter went to Key West, when the rest of her cargo of flour was offered for sale at $5 a barrel. Walker was held in the sum of $2,000 for trial at the No vember term of the court. The owners in Philadelphia directed the arrest after learning of the vessel's arrival there, and tho suspicious indications. 9 Rev. Hugh Montgomery was before the New London county commissioners Satur day to show cause why he should not be removed from the onice of prosecuting at torney, 32 citizens of Old Lyme having signed a petition charging Montgomery with maliciously prosecuting citizens of the village. A counter-petitio- n favoring Montgomery's work was presented, a ma jority of the property owners of Lyme hay-in- g signed it. The commissioners have decided that the reasons for asking for Mr. Montgomery's removal are insufficient, and the charges not sustained. A prose-outin- g agent who gives satisfaction to the rummies is a poor man for the position. .

Thb joke is being got constantly on the papers and men who "flop," by quoting from them or reproducing their cartoons, Men and newspapers are alike fallible and human, and those that argue to themselves , the highest degree of infallibility are gen erally the lowest in record. When the same pen and pencil deifies a man, and then in the same light besmears him, the public has the right to hold up the two productions side by side for comparison, and express pity for the humbugs who as- sume to be the only fit judges of men's honesty, purity and motives. There are few public men who cannot be given a good or a bad character, as one may wish, on the authority of certain editors, and ithat too in the light of exactly the same e viae nee. WASHINGTON LETTER. Waahington, D. C, Aug. S, 1884, Although the administration has never been more completely dissolved for the time being than now, and although many government clerks are away on their month's leave, still the machinery of the government continues in motion. A suf ficient number of officials are left at their posts for routine business, and the city looks quite lively on this the second day of August. The people live out of doors at this seeson, and there is a great deal of driving, bicycling and tricycling on the asphalt thoroughfares of Washington, and a great deal of boating on the placid Poto mac. The denizens of the capital do not nna it necessary to fly from its broad, airy. shaded streets in quest of summer com forts, as do the residents of less favored towns. Speaking of government clerks reminds me that discharged department employes are no small proportion of the thousands mat daily throng the avenue. Thev wan der about the city looking forlorn and wretched, perfectly helpless outside of the department where, perhaps, they have spent the greater part of their lives. As soon as they receive the fatal yellow en velope, which contains the information that their services are no longer required. they proceed to the room of the disbursing omcer.ana draw whatever pay is due them. Not wishing their fellow clerks to know that they have been dismissed, they fre- quently have it given out they ' have re- signed to engage in other business. That business, however, is an aimless hopeful dream of Many persons wno once neia nign ana responsible gov ernment positions are now engaged in it. with little chance of bettering their condi tions. Soon after his removal he may be seen of afternoons in one of the hotel lobbies or billiard saloons, faultlessly attired, and if an uninformed friend asks why he .... is not i v 1 l i i txi ma oinue ne win pernaps reply tnat he is taking his leave of absence. Should congress happen to be in session, he will become much interested in the debates, and can often be found at the camtoL But as the weeks pass, and all hopes of re- appointment disappear, the silk lined over- coat is pawned, and next the watch, and other jewelry. When the suit of clothes begin to look thread-bar- e, things get des- perate, and something must be done. All remaining energy is called up in an effort to get back into the department. All the old letters of recommendation are brought out again, and the sympathies of the head of the department are appealed to, but all to no purpose. The ex-cle- rk is driven again to the occupation of aimless street wandering, for he is usually too vain to ac- cept any employment less respectable or remunerative tnan a government position. And it cannot be denied that there is fas cination in the clerical life of Washington. Persons living, far removed from the cap- ital often wonder why the office holder is so loth to leave it, that he will stoop to al- most anything in order to secure a further tenure, whether it be four years in the white house, another term in either end of the capitol, or only a longer lease of a pet- ty department clerkship. But everyone who visits Washington himself can solve the mystery He may not be able to define the reason clearly, but he cannot remain long in the city with- out experiencing those , subtle influences which render it so attractive to residents. There-i- s something very interesting in merely watching the great governmental machme or in inspecting its component parts. The very air of the capitol, instinct with the official and social life that cen. ters about the seat of government of a great nation, seems to possess a singular charm that disposes one to linger and en- joy it.- t- The peach trees in North Georgia are so heavily laden with fruit that they are breaking down.

    carefully prepared report of the graincrops in Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, T x-- as

    and Indian territory, embracing reportsfrom nearly all ' parts of them. The re--. '. .i i - rport Bnows an uioreaseu acreage ui Mis-souri of 20 per . cjnt. and an increasedyield in most crops of 15 per cent, whilethe livestock increase is per cent, inKansas the increase iu acreage is 18 percent., in yield 12 per cent., while thestock increase is 'zo per cent, in Texasthe increase in the acreage is 10 per cent.',in yield 2 per cent., and in livestock 32per cent. Nebraska shows an increasedacreage of 14 per cent., wnue tne yieldshows 14 per cent, and the livestock 40 percent, increase. Indian territory shows 10per cent, less acreage and yield, while livestock shows an increase of 40 per cant. InKansas, Missouri and some- - parts of Texasthe crops have been injured by heavyrains, while in Indian territory and part ofTexas the drouth has proven detrimental,but the promise is altogether for thelargest yield ever recorded.

    The business failures of last weekthroughout the country, as reported byK. G. Dunn & Co., number for the unitedStates 233 and for Canada 18, or a tot tl of251, as against a total of 234 for the weekbefor. showing flu increase of seventeenfailures. The whole iucre ise appears toarise in the Pacific states and territories,where the casualities are more numerousthan have Iweu reported in any week foryears.

    An eccentric character in Milwaukee,known as the "Count," (who has just beenam sted for swindling a bank in fcweden,distinguished himself . particularly byspending as much as $1,000 a week forwine. One way of. accomplishing such afeat was to use bottles of champagne astenpins, and smash nearly a case of Chquotat one "strike.

    The cholera has been decreasing inFrance, and there are few or no cases inItaly now. A curious statement is madewith regard to the swallows aud sparrowsabout Marseilles.

    .Tuna is liHimllv ana of the healthiestmonths in the year when there are com- -paratively few aeatns iron, zymotic dis-eases, for the reason probably that te peo-ple are so much more out of doors. Thenthe changeable spring weather that hasplayed such sad havoc among the con-sumptives and the weakly generally, andhas been so favorable to an Kinas oi ais-eas- es

    of the air passages and respiratorysystem, has given place to a warmer

    tem-iwmtnr- A

    In general the history of the month hasnot been as unfavorable to health as theaverage, while more so than is the caseusually in June. Cheshire reports onedeath only.

Ridgefield is pronounced unusu-ally free from disease, and the same, withthe exception of malarial diseases, couldbe said of several places.

    Nervous diseases have been unusuallyprominent for June. Thus New Havenro.rwwta 03 rlontlm Ifi from onnvnlsionnand in many towns cases of meningitisand cerebro spinal meningitis are report-ed.

The relation to nervous dis-eases in general is certainly quite constant.

    Mate Walker, of the schooner Julia Ba-ker, who has been personating CaptainLewis the dead master of that vessel, atKey West, Fla., was on Monday arraign-ed on the charge of running away with thevessel and disposing of her cargo. Thetestimony proved that the master was sickwhen the vessel sailed and continued sofor six days. On the sixth day the man atthe wheel eaw the captain fall from hischair in the cabin. He was picked up bythe mate and steward and laid on a mat-tress on the cabin floor. They administered something to him from a bottle.The master died in a few minutes. Themate immediately changed the vessel'scourse so as to reach the Bahama Islands.She was originally bound for Trinidad.Arriving at Fortuue Island, the mate soldthe deck-loa- d of lumber and then went toInagua, where he sold some flour andbread. The vessel was then taken to anuninhabited island, where she met a smallschooner. The meeting had probablybeen arranged at Inagua. The latter ves-sel took on board 120 barrels of flour anddeparted, the mate, Walker, going withher. Walker returned with her in fivedays, having been able to sell only twelvebarrels of the flour. He gave the smallschooner twenty barrels for the service andshe left. The steward ran away in her.jumping on board over the Julia Baker'sstern. The latter went to Key West, whenthe rest of her cargo of flour was offeredfor sale at $5 a barrel. Walker was heldin the sum of $2,000 for trial at the November term of the court. The ownersin Philadelphia directed the arrest afterlearning of the vessel's arrival there, andtho suspicious indications.

    9Rev. Hugh Montgomery was before the

    New London county commissioners Saturday to show cause why he should not beremoved from the onice of prosecuting attorney, 32 citizens of Old Lyme havingsigned a petition charging Montgomerywith maliciously prosecuting citizens ofthe village. A counter-petitio- n favoringMontgomery's work was presented, a majority of the property owners of Lyme hay-in- g

    signed it. The commissioners havedecided that the reasons for asking for Mr.Montgomery's removal are insufficient,and the charges not sustained. A prose-outin-g

    agent who gives satisfaction to therummies is a poor man for the position. .

    Thb joke is being got constantly on thepapers and men who "flop," by quotingfrom them or reproducing their cartoons,Men and newspapers are alike fallible andhuman, and those that argue to themselves

    , the highest degree of infallibility are generally the lowest in record. When thesame pen and pencil deifies a man, andthen in the same light besmears him, thepublic has the right to hold up the twoproductions side by side for comparison,and express pity for the humbugs who as-sume to be the only fit judges of men'shonesty, purity and motives. There arefew public men who cannot be given agood or a bad character, as one may wish,on the authority of certain editors, andithat too in the light of exactly the sameeviae nee.

    WASHINGTON LETTER.

    Waahington, D. C, Aug. S, 1884,Although the administration has never

    been more completely dissolved for thetime being than now, and although manygovernment clerks are away on theirmonth's leave, still the machinery of thegovernment continues in motion. A sufficient number of officials are left at theirposts for routine business, and the citylooks quite lively on this the second dayof August. The people live out of doorsat this seeson, and there is a great deal ofdriving, bicycling and tricycling on theasphalt thoroughfares of Washington, anda great deal of boating on the placid Potomac. The denizens of the capital do notnna it necessary to fly from its broad, airy.shaded streets in quest of summer comforts, as do the residents of less favoredtowns.

    Speaking of government clerks remindsme that discharged department employesare no small proportion of the thousandsmat daily throng the avenue. Thev wander about the city looking forlorn andwretched, perfectly helpless outside of thedepartment where, perhaps, they havespent the greater part of their lives. Assoon as they receive the fatal yellow envelope, which contains the informationthat their services are no longer required.they proceed to the room of the disbursingomcer.ana draw whatever pay is due them.Not wishing their fellow clerks to knowthat they have been dismissed, they fre-quently have it given out they ' have re-signed to engage in other business. Thatbusiness, however, is an aimless hopefuldream of Many personswno once neia nign ana responsible government positions are now engaged in it.with little chance of bettering their conditions.

    Soon after his removal he may be seenof afternoons in one of the hotel lobbies orbilliard saloons, faultlessly attired, and ifan uninformed friend asks why he....is noti v 1 l i itxi ma oinue ne win pernaps reply tnat heis taking his leave of absence. Shouldcongress happen to be in session, he willbecome much interested in the debates,and can often be found at the camtoLBut as the weeks pass, and all hopes of re-appointment disappear, the silk lined over-coat is pawned, and next the watch, andother jewelry. When the suit of clothesbegin to look thread-bar- e, things get des-perate, and something must be done. Allremaining energy is called up in an effortto get back into the department. All theold letters of recommendation are broughtout again, and the sympathies of the headof the department are appealed to, but allto no purpose. The ex-cle- rk is drivenagain to the occupation of aimless streetwandering, for he is usually too vain to ac-cept any employment less respectable orremunerative tnan a government position.And it cannot be denied that there is fascination in the clerical life of Washington.Persons living, far removed from the cap-ital often wonder why the office holder isso loth to leave it, that he will stoop to al-most anything in order to secure a furthertenure, whether it be four years in thewhite house, another term in either end ofthe capitol, or only a longer lease of a pet-ty department clerkship.

    But everyone who visits Washingtonhimself can solve the mystery He maynot be able to define the reason clearly,but he cannot remain long in the city with-out experiencing those , subtle influenceswhich render it so attractive to residents.There-i- s something very interesting inmerely watching the great governmentalmachme or in inspecting its componentparts. The very air of the capitol, instinctwith the official and social life that cen.ters about the seat of government of agreat nation, seems to possess a singularcharm that disposes one to linger and en-joy it.- t-
