Hints in Regard to Shipping and Packing Goods for Foreign Markets WASHINGTON, Feb 24 — Consul Leonard, at Leith, Scotland, in an official communication to the State Department, says: "Canners of salmon on the Pacific Coast have erred in not exercising sufficient care in the selection of sound fish and in canning them in proper condition, and the result has been that many thousand cases salmon, mostly from the Fraser river, which were sold to arrive at twenty-four or twenty-five shillings at Liverpool, with a guaranty of quality, were rejected on arrival, and subsequently sold at twenty-one to twenty-two shillings per case. The packers do not seem to recognize the fact that canned goods must be of irreproachable quality, and any that are not so tend to depreciate these goods in this country and ruin the sale of these articles. Were canners to send only such goods as are of irreproachable quality, they would get better prices and maintain a trade which they will otherwise lose. Fine goods in this country always command a sale, but the market is flooded with inferior qualities, which do no credit either to the packer or to the merchants who buy them and who regret ever after having done so. Pacific coast fruits have made their way here and have commanded much better prices than the States pack. While No. 3 cans of States peaches sell for 7s 6d ($1.52) to 8s 6d ($2.07) per dozen, cans of Pacific fruit are more easily salable at 11s 7d to 11s 6d ($2.50) to 12s ($2.92) per duz. At the same time there A Girl Murdered. (Commercial, Feb. 27) A dispatch received by Chief of Police King from San Bernardino yesterday states that the dead body of Mrs. Maggie O'Briennee McCurdy, of this city, had been found near Riverside, and requesting that the parents of the girl be searched for. The stepfather of the girl, whose name is McCurdy, was notified and left for San Bernardino last evening. It appears that the young lady was, until recently, an inmate of the family of Mr. A. T. Bell, of this city, having lived with them since a child. William McDowell, now about 23 years of age, and a step-son of Mr. Bell's, was also brought up by him. The two naturally became attached, and there was at one time talk of their marriage. McDowell, however, some time since married another woman, but continued to pay attention to Maggie. Some three weeks ago she went to River-side where she was met by McDowell, and it is said that her appearance there led to a quarrel with McDowell's alleged wife who was an inmate of a house full repute. SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 26 — Yesterday morning Rosa McDowell, an inmate of a house of all fame on First street in this town, confessed to Marshal Wixon to being an eye-witness to one of the most horrible murders known to the annals of crime. She stated that about four weeks ago her husband, William R McDowell, had murdered a young woman, about four miles beyond Colton and threw her body into a ditch. That he had threatened that he would kill her, and that she made this confession for protection. A PRESS DINNER. Sacramento Record Union. A press dinner, under the auspices of the San Francisco press representatives, was given at Fisher's dining rooms on Saturday evening. There was a large number of invited guests, among them Governor Stoneman and ex-Governor Irwin, and a number of legislators. The menu was elaborate. The dinner was gotten up with but little regard for expense. Mr. Townsend, correspondent of the Bulletin, presided at the tables, of which there were two extending the entire length of the dining hall. On the frontispiece of the printed programme for the evening was the following: credited to the Songs of Solomon, chapter III: Now, then, Sir Governor, your whistle wet; And you, State Officers, your cares forget. Grave Members, give much to thought not venial. Points of disorder raise and grow congenial. As patriots all, stand forward for your nation, Destroying winnings of foreign importation. And mildly join a general free "tear off." Protection is insured you from all care. If These things ye do, let joy be none the less. That ye are welcomed here by all the Press. Following is the programme of toasts: High Joint Bill. No. 4.11.44 INTRODUCED BY MISREPRESENTA TIVE TOWNSEND, FEBRUARY 24, 1883 REFERRED TO COMMITTEE ON PRIVATE MORALS AN ACT TO ENFORCE AN ACT ENTITLED "AN ACT TO AC COMPLISH THE PUTTING DOWN OF FOREIGN A Southern Tribute to the Yankees. Memphis Appeal The impression still remains that the Southern people cherish such a deadly hatred to Yankees that they will neither smell, taste, touch nor handle anything contaminated by Yankee hands. This is a most egregious error. The Southern people love the Yankees, and they show this affection in a thousand different ways. When they retire at night they disbutton Yankee buttons to Yankee made coats, waistcoats, pants hues, shirts and drawers. They pull off Yankee boots with Yankee boot-jacks, and divest their feet of Yankee socks. They march to Yankee beasts, turn down Yankee coverlets, Yankee blankets, prostrate themselves on Yankee mattresses and lay their heads on Yankee pillows. The beddings are the only things not made by Yankee hands and imported from the land of the Yankees. On rising in the morning we tread Yankee carpets, stumble over Yankee chairs and sofas, build a fire with Yankee coals taken from Yankee cottles, in Yankee grates, catch the ashes in Yankee pans, and use Yankee pokers, Yankee shelves and tongs. We repair to Yankee washstands, pour water from Yankee pitchers into Yankee bowls, and wash with Yankee soap; then use Yankee towels and Yankee toothbrushes. Next we march to a Yankee bureau, stand before a Yankee glass, and use Yankee combs, Yankee brushes, Yankee powder, Yankee cologne, in Yankee bottles. We sit down in a Yankee chair to a Yankee table, covered with a Yankee cloth, Yankee knives and forks, Yankee dishes, and feed upon Yankee food better prices and maintain a trade which they will otherwise lose. Fine goods in this country always command a sale, but the market is flooded with inferior qualities, which do no credit either to the packer or to the merchants who buy them and who regret ever after having done so. Pacific coast fruits have made their way here and have commanded much better prices than the States pack. While No. 3 can of States peaches sell for 7s 61¢ ($1.82) to 8s 61¢ ($2.07) per dozen, canes of Pacific fruit are more easily salable at 11s 7d to 11s 64¢ ($2.50) to 12s ($2.92) per doz. At the same time there have been complaints of these, which are not unfounded, and which show that Pacific packers must look to the quality, if they wish to retain their position in this market. I depreciate the system of consigning goods which result in loss to the consignee. The market has been flooded with Pacific canned goods, which in many cases, in consequence have been sold below their value to command the market. Packers of these and other articles always in arrangly ship their season's pack as soon as it is ready, and the result of a large quantity coming at once in the market is a serious fall in prices, while if they were to send shipments at intervals, such client to keep the market supplied, they would get better prices. SAN BERNARDINO, Feb. 26 — Yesterday morning Rosa McDowell, an inmate of a house of ill fame on First street in this town, confessed to Marshal Wixon to being an eye-witness to one of the most horrible murders known to the annals of crime. She stated that about four weeks ago her husband, William R. McDowell, had murdered a young woman, about four miles beyond Colton and threw her body into a ditch. That he had threatened that he would kill her, and that she made this confession for protection. Wixon immediately arrested McDowell and he is now lodged in the county jail. After locking him up in the cell Wixon and Sheriff Buckhart took the woman, Rosa McDowell, and went to the scene of the murder and found the body in the place described. It is in a raft two miles east of Riverside A Coroner’s jury visited the spot this morning and found the body in a cramped position in a narrow space. In this position the sun had never yet shone on her and the body was in a remarkably good state of preservation. An examination disclosed the left temple crushed in with a blow from some blunt instrument, and a rope around the neck probably finished the foul work after the victim was insensible. The wife of the murderer testified that the deceased came from Los Angeles on the local train on the evening of Tuesday, January 30, and was met there by her husband and herself and conducted to this lonely spot and killed. The maiden name of deceased was McCardy, and her parents live in Los Angeles. Her marry of name is Mrs. J. J. O’Brien. Her husband is in Arizona. The Coroner’s jury charged Win R. McDowell with the murder. No motive is adduced for the crime except that Mrs. O’Brien was cognizant of a previous murder by McDowell, in Ventura, several years ago. Shocking Suicide. Mr. Robert Ingram while going out with his family to spend the day at San Gabriel Sunday morning, found the dead body of Conrad Lehman, lately of Calico, San Bernardino county. The body was lying in grass by the road side, with a pitched clutch in the right hand, a bullet hole having perforated the center of the forehead. A jury rendered a verdict of suicide. It appears that deceased came here from Calico a few days ago with about $650, and until Saturday last remained registered at the United States Hotel. It appears he was only nineteen years of age, and on his arrival here made the acquaintance of an inmate of a house of ill-repute in this city. He became infatuated with her, squandered his money on her liberally, and contemplated disposing of a claim he had in Calico, marrying her and taking her to Arizona. The girl, however, thinking his finances were low, shut the door in his face Friday night. An effort on his part to secure an adjustment of their quarrel by calling in the aid of San Bernardino County. INTRODUCED BY MISREPRESENTATIVE TOWNNSEND, FEBUARY 24, 1883 REFERRED TO COMMITTEE ON PRIVATE MORAL AN ACT TO ENFORCE AN ACT ENTITLED "AN ACT TO COMPLISH THE PUTTING DOWN OF FOREIGN WINES AND BREAK UP THE DELETERIOUS PRACTICE OF DRINKING SACRAMENTO RIVER WATER."

That Senator Del Valle shall say in A Philadelphia physician has made a special study of the phenomena of death, both through his observations and those of others, and his conclusion is that the dissolution is painless. "I mean," he explains "that it approaches as unconscious as sleep. The soul leaves the world as unconscious as it enters it. Whatever be the causes of death, whether by lingering malady or sudden violence, dissolution comes either through syncope or asphyxia. In the latter case when resulting from disease, the struggle is long protracted, and accompanied by all the visible marks of agony which the imagination associates with the closing scene of life. Death does not strike all the organs of the body at the same time, and the lungs are the last to give up the performance of their functions. As death approaches, the latter become more and more oppressed; hence the rattle. Nor is the contact sufficient to change the dark venous into the red arterial blood; an unprepared fluid consequently issues from the lungs into the heart; and is thence transmitted to every other organ in the body. The brain receives it and appears to be lalled thereby into sleep—generally tranquil sleep—filled with dreams which impel the dying to murmur out the names of friends and the occupations and collections of a past life." MILWAUKEE, Feb. 26. — The Grand Jury in the Newhall House case agreed this afternoon on a true bill against Schiller, former lessee of the barroom in the hotel, indicting him for arson. The indictment contains three counts. The first charges the prisoner with wilfully maliciously, and felonously setting fire to and burning the Newhall House, thereby causing the death of a number of persons. The Grand Jury is still in session considering the responsibility of the owners and manager of the hotel. It is believed that indictments for manslaughter will be returned against Nash, Antisell and the night clerk Delaney. The labors of the Grand Jury will be finished before next week. TROY, N.Y., Feb. 26. — Miss Mary Daniels, who presented a claim for $100,000 damages against the New Central for injuries received in the Spuyten Duyvil disaster, has settled for $29,000, the largest sum ever paid by the company for personal injuries. A.R. Valentine, of Bennington, Vt., received $5,000 for the death of his son and $5,000 for the death of Potter's young bride, both killed in the same disaster. XII. That Senator McClure shall inflamably ask, "Who'll tread on the Tail of My Code?" XIII. That Senator Spencer shall so eloquently over, "The Relative Cussedness between the Augustora and the Napa Goat. XIV. That Senator Kellog shall present the report of the committee appointed to investigate "The Leg in the Lobby. XV. That General Sheehan shall briefly discuss the whole subject of the art of war under the caption, "The Little Ten Soldier." XVI. That Senator Del Valle shall say in his Castillian way, "Sacrerrrrramento," and if any further commentary on the capital is desired he shall malariously continue. AMENDMENTS. I. There shall be nothing dry except the champagne. II. Any gentleman caught speaking to the question will be promptly shot. III. If he occupies more than five minutes all his relations on his wife's side will also be sacrificed. NEW YORK, Feb. 26. — A special to the Tribune from Columbia, S.C., of Feb. 25th says: Miss Holly of Orangeburg county was to have been married last night to a young farmer. Yesterday morning she went into a field to rake leaves. The day being chilly she kindled a fire and while warming herfect her dress caught fire. Instantly she was enveloped in flames, and before assistance could reach her she fell insensible. All her clothing was burned from her body, except her collar and shoes. She died at very hour fixed for her marriage. A good story is told of the actress De jazet, whose memory has been received by the restoration of her name to her old theatre.Soon after the first production of "Mr Garat" she went on the road. At Dijon she was visited by two ladies who wanted to ask her if the piece was one which two maidens could with propriety witness. She assured them that the piece was quite not fensive, but they still kept up their question.At last she assumed an air of confidence and said in a low, solemn tone: "Now I'll tell you everything I usually play without any clothes on, but to-night, on account of your scruples, I will keep on my stockings." The spinsters fled. GAZETTE. MARCH 3, 1883. PRESS DINNER. Mr. under the auspices of the press representatives, was dining rooms on Saturday.

COMMITTEE ON PRIVATE MORALS AN ACT ACT ENTITLED "AN ACT TO ACUTE PUTTING DOWN OF FOREIGN WASHINGTON as a Slave Market. Those who have only been acquainted with Washington and its surroundings since the time of the rebellion, will hardly be able to realize the former state of affairs at the National Capital, as interestingly referred to by John Wentworth in "Congressional Ruminences," as follows: In 1843 Washington was the greatest slave mart in the United States. Within sight of the Capitol, not far from the lower gate, and near, if not upon, the land where the public garden now is, was a building with a large yard around it, inclosed with a high fence. Thither slaves were brought from all the slave-holding region, like cattle in the Chicago stockyards, and locked up until sold. There were regular auction days for these not disposed of at private sale. The Chicago fire destroyed a hard cracker which I preserved as a specimen by which purchasers tested the age of slaves. And to this day if there is anything that the average Southern negro does not know, it is his own age. The slaves were placed upon a block, and when a question rose as to age, the auctioneer requested them to bite from a cracker, which all slave auctioneers kept for such occasions. The theory was that while a slave could mastacate well he could work. Nearly all the labor of Washington was performed by slaves, many of whom were hired from the neighboring States. The slaves were expected to collect their wages monthly and take them home on some Saturday night. One morning I missed my boots, and when I went for the boot black he was missing also. After a few days I saw a procession of captured slaves, WOOING OF THE WILD TURKEY. J. Mortimer Murphy says of the wild turkey and its wooing, in his capital work entitled "American Game Bird Shooting." The males commence wooing as early as February in some of the extreme Southern States, but March is the opening of the love season throughout the country, and April the month in which it reaches its highest development. The males may then be heard calling to the females from every direction until the woods ring with their loud and liquid cries, commenced long before sunrise, and continued for hours with the steadiest persistency. As both sexes roost apart at this period, the hens avoid answering the gobblers for some time, but they finally become less obstructive, and coily return the call. When the males here this all within hearing respond promptly and vehemently, uttering notes similar to those which the domestic gobblers do when they hear an unusual sound. If the female answering the call is on the ground, the males try to her and parade before her with all the pompous strutting that characterizes that family. They spread and erect their tail, deprives their wings with a quivering motion and trail them along the ground; and draw the head back on the shoulders, as if to increase their dignity and importance, then wheel, and march, and swell, and gobble, as if to outdo each other in airs and graces. The female, however, pays little attention to these ceremonious parades, and domestically looks on while the rivals for her affection try to outdo one another in playing the antithesis and duet. When the strutting NO. 4,11,44 BY MISREPRESENTA THE TOWNSEND, JANUARY 24, 1853 COMMITTEE ON PRIVATE MORALS AN ACT ACT ENTITLED "AN ACT TO ACUTE PUTTING DOWN OF FOREIGN BREAK UP THE DELETERIOUS DRINKING SACKAMENTO RIVER" Governor Stoneman shall say that "The Palladium of Our town is the first explains what sodium is."

Chlorate of petash, permanganate of potash, and glycerine is one of them. A pemale of chlorate of lime, sulphur, and other substances will detonate when rubbed in a mortar. Hypophosphate of lime or soda, when triturated alone sometimes explode. Pills of oxide of silver are apt to decompose with a tremendous explosion. Tincture of iodide and ammonia form the iodide of nitrogen—a violently explosive substance—which, agitated with water, is nearly certain to detonate. Chlorate of potash and tannin are liable to act in the same way. A gentrifice containing chlorate of potash and catechu has been known to explode in the mouth. The London Practitioner records a case of severe hysteria, with contractions of the lower extremities, which gave way to treatment with bread pills prescribed under the name of potassium pennix.
