It has been officially decided that the quicksilver "remedy" for phylloxera is no remedy at all, and that the pest lives and flourishes in ground strongly impregnated with the mercury. Apparently not satisfied with their efforts in the direction of the extermination of the Alligator family, manufacturers of fancy leather goods are now employing monkey skin in their latest novelties. It is described as light colored and having the general appearance of coarse grained morocco. It is employed in the manufacture of purses, ladies' handbags, etc. F. PORNDORFF, viticultural representative from California at the Louisville Exposition, writes that there is a great lack of samples of California wines in the exhibit. He strongly urges, in the interest of grape growers and wine makers of the State, that more be sent on as quickly as possible. He suggests that samples of raw wines and samples of the same wines which have improved with age be forwarded, in order to show the capabilities of improvement possessed by California wines and the degree of perfection they attain in bottle. A very peculiar case is reported by telegraph. Edward S. Sanborn died recently in a house of ill-fame in Boston. He was known to have accumulated a large fortune as a keeper of houses of prostitution. He led a dual life, however, and at his home in Kingston, N. H., he was known as an upright man, liberal, public-spirited and without reproach. In his will he bequeathed Poisoned by Egyptian Cord. [Corp. Rural Press.] Mr. William Reinhart, residing two miles east of Tulare, on or about the 24th of August, 5 o'clock p.m., turned fourteen cows and twelve calves into a field of green Egyptian corn. The corn had a few weeks previous been cut down by rabbits, the tops now being only the growth of suckers, and quite tender. A herder was with them, under instructions to watch the cattle, and prevent them eating too much. They had not been in the corn more than twenty minutes and not in further than some thirty yards, before two calves dropped down, showing systems of sickness. The herder got the calves up, but they did not move off readily, and while trying to drive them he noticed others having symptoms of sickness. He proceeded at once to get the cattle off as fast as possible. There were six he failed to get off, they having fallen down as the two first had. Out of the six, two died within an hour. They were distressed by apasmus of about five minutes duration, with some 15 to 20 minutes between spells. The symptoms were restlessness, trying to move, quivering of flesh, and before death lying flat on side, head stretched out and legs pawing. Some three of them seemed to be boating and were breathing with difficulty. These were tapped by insertion of a knife between the last rib and hip joint and into the largest intestine. A quantity of gas was noticed to escape, which seemed to afford some relief. A dose of 15 to 20 drops of aconite with 20 to 40 drops equal parts of ether and laudanum was administered. Of those thus treated one died, one recovered and the other is not quite well yet. Two of the other three sick ones recovered. Of the two that died one was a cow and the other a yearling steer. Mr. Reinhart says there was nothing else growing among the corn except lambs' quarter, turkey mulein and a very low, spreading weed, which whom broken yields milk, name unknown (perhaps a variety of milkweed), none of which weeds are usually eaten by cattle. The cattle had in the forenoon been feeding on bunch grass and salt grass. At noon they were up in a corral for water, and remained till the time first above mentioned. In going to the field of corn they were driven across a field of wheat stubble. About three weeks before the occurrence above related, Mr. Reinhart lost a cow apparently from the same cause, but which did not particularly attract his attention, as he did not surmise what the cause might be. The cow was three years old, with a calf not three weeks old. By some mishap she got into the same field of corn, which was then in the same state except much younger. She Pestle Court.

He was known to have accumulated a large fortune as a keeper of houses of prostitution. He led a dual life, however, and at his home in Kingston, N.H., he was known as an upright man, liberal, public-spirited and without reproach. In his will he bequeathed $40,000 to Dartmouth College, and before his death he built and endowed an academy in Kingston and presented it to the city. Now that death has revealed his real character, the question of the acceptance of his benefactions comes up and is yet unsolved. Irs a long lane that has no turning. Chris Buckley has about run the length of his tether. The committee appointed by the San Francisco Bar Association to investigate the charges that he had received from Mr. Bennett $600 to expedite decisions in two cases before the State Supreme Court, has made its report. It exonerated the Supreme Court and its officers from all complicity in the act, but recommended that a special committee be appointed to consult with the Attorney General to proceed against Bennett, Chris Buckley and J. W. Taylor, contractors, for implication in the act charged. The committee also found Attorney Whitmore and J. F. Cowdery, late city and county attorney, guilty of unprofessional conduct, and recommend that proceedings against the two latter be instituted in the Supreme Court. Mr. Matthews, E.R. Taylor and W.J. Tilden were appointed the special committee. In Democratic eyes, Mr. Higgins is eminently the right man in the right place. He pronounces it "Snivel Service," and believes with the late Governor Weller of California that if a Democrat cannot be found capable of filling an office, then the office ought to be abolished. Higgins is appointment clerk of the Treasury Department and he is no figurehead either. A late telegram says: "A female clerk in the Treasury Department, by name Mrs. Mary C. Kail of Ohio, was dismissed last week for offensive partisanship, having written a campaign song which was published by the Blaine committee last fall. She went to Mr. Higgins to inquire the reason for her removal, and was told that there was an impassable gulf between her and the present Administration. He admired her for her Republicanism, but a woman of her record could never hold an office under a Democratic President. If he had his way there would not be a single Republican left in office. Unprecedented Rainfall GALVESTON, Texas, Sept. 18.—This city and island are experiencing a veritable deluge. For five days past leaden-hued clouds have obscured the sunlight and the rainfall has been almost imperceptible. The streets are A Fiendish Murder. New York, Sept. 22.—A Tribune special from Pottaville, Tenn., of Sept. 21st says: Sallis O'Neill and her husband lived with his aunt, Kitty Keefe, in Silver Creek. Last night Mrs. O'Neill returned from a christening in the neighborhood where she had been since early morning and where she indulged freely in liquor. Mrs. Keefe was nearly 60 years of age, but being an albino looked younger and was still handsome. Mrs. O'Neill, though married for three years, had no children and was jealous of the old woman, whom she accused of stealing her husband's affections. She quarreled with her husband at the christening and went home alone, where she found Mrs. Keefe sitting on the doorstep of their little log cabin. What followed can only be conjectured. Certain it is, however, that Mrs. O'Neill seized a hatchet and, coming behind Mrs. Keefe, split her head open, then hacked her face beyond recognition and finally severed the head from the body. Then with her hair floating behind her and her hands red with blood she ran to a neighbor's house. The ghastly remains lay in the moonlight, half in and half out of the doorway, when they were found some time later by two men who were passing. They found Mrs. O'Neill in the neighbor's house and gave the alarm. Taking the woman back to her house with them, they confronted her with her horrible work. Breaking from them she ran at the corpse and, grasping it by the heels, dragged it into the middle of the road, when with a demoniac shriek she ran into the house. Horrified at the spectacle the men first laid the mangled remains aside, then took the woman into custody and at 2 o'clock this morning lodged her in jail. Her husband did not learn of her work until nearly an hour later and has been dazed ever since. He is of good character and the neighbors credit his denials of all his wife's ugly charges of criminality against him and his aunt and others. Today Mrs. O'Neill seems rational but refused to talk on the subject of her crime. When arrested she boasted of her guilt and hurled opprobrious epithets at the old woman as she passed the corpse on her way out of the house to go to the Justice's office. Mercury for Vineyards [San Francisco Bulletin] F.W.Morse, Special Inspector for the Viticultural Commission, has been experimenting with the mercurial mixture as a remedy for phylloxera. He has sent three names unknown (perhaps a variety of milkweed), none of which weeds are usually eaten by cattle. The cattle had in the forenoon been feeding on bunch grass and salt grass. At noon they were up in a calral for water, and remained till the time first above mentioned. In going to the field of corn they were driven across a field of wheat stubble.

The cow was three years old, with a calf not three weeks old. By some mishap she got into the same field of corn, which was then in the same state except much younger. She was in the corn perhaps not exceeding 20 minutes. She was driven off and to the house about a quarter of a mile, where she died within an hour. The symptoms were the same as already related of the others. Mr. Reinhart sends you a sample of the corn cut at the time he lost the two head first above mentioned, and is anxious to have the same carefully examined with a view to ascertainting the cause of the sickness if possible.

For five days past leaden-hued clouds have obscured the sunlight and the rainfall has been almost incessant. The streets are perfect canals. In many places in the city, for two or three squares, the water stands knee-deep. Up to 9 o'clock to night, since the 1st day of September, the Signal Service rain-gauge shows 17.90 inches of rainfall in Galveston. This record is without parallel. The total rainfall at this point to 52.37 inches per year. It will therefore be seen that in eighteen days over one-third of the annual rainfall has fallen. Heavy seas have prevailed ever since the deluge set in and a series of encroachments are reported along the eastern end of the island. The velocity of the wind this afternoon was thirty miles an hour. At 11 o'clock to night the downpour still continues. At Indianola to-day the wind blow at the rate of fifty miles an hour, and reports of serious damage are anticipated far down the coast. Fruit Rates from California. Last year the rate on fruit from San Francisco to Chicago was $800 a car. This year the fruit-growers asked that this rate be reduced to $400 a car. The railroads refused but put down the rate to $600, although they had previously given Los Angeles a rate of $200 a car for oranges on slow freight trains. Now the Atlantic & Pacific is said to have offered to carry fruit for $300 a car by the train load. And Mr. Stubbs says that whenever the fruit-growers can fill fifteen cars of fruit a day, the railroads will haul to Chicago for $300 a car. This is just the rate which the railroads are getting for carrying tea to the Eastern cities by the train load. All this shows progress, and if the fruit-growers persevere with a steady pressure the indications are that the rainmats will yield another point or two—Chicago Times, Sept. 14th. Mercury for Vineyards [San Francisco Bulletin.] F.W. Morse, Special Inspector for the Viticultural Commission, has been experimenting with the mercurial mixture as a remedy for phylloxera. He has sent three communications to C.A.Wetmore, Chief Executive Viticultural Officer, detailing his experiments and the results. The vineyard on which these were conducted is one mile east from Sonoma. The soil is a strong, dark loam, four to eight feet deep, and shading gradually into a gravelly subsoil. The vines, of the old Mission variety, were eight feet apart and infected in such a manner that only a part of each small plot treated by the different methods was noticeably affected by the phylloxera. Eighteen plans of treatment were tried, differing in the amount of mixture applied or the manner of its application. In the first experiments bains were dug about the trunk and roots of the vine, and the mercury in varying quantities mixed with soil put therein. No positive effect was noticeable, and a further application of the mixture in furrows run between the vines was also without result. The experiment was varied by plowing furrows close to the vines, running double furrows, cross furrows, varying the amount of the mixture used and putting some of it on the surface of the ground, but with no noticeable result. The phylloxera continued as abundant as usual, with some dead insects occasionally found. An application in crowbar holes six inches from the vine and twenty-four inches deep was next tried, and subsequent examination showed a colony of insects with a number dead and injured, apparently poisoned from the same spot on the root, otherwise there was no apparent effect. Some of the Mission vines were taken up, replaced by Chasselas and Zinfandel rooted cuttings, and these subjected to like treatment, but the phylloxera again appeared. Several private individuals have experimented with this mixture in the manner above described, but in no case has any decided effect been noticed. Mr. Morse has also experimented in the vineyard of the University of California and in other places with similar results to the above, and concludes that the remedy is ineffectual.

In his coat picture of the girl whom The Horticultural Fair at San Diego will open on the 12th of October. A disease called the "well-head" is prevalent in the poultry family in the northern part of the State. It is estimated that 500 tons of dried fruit will be shipped from Vina, Tehama county, this fall. George Simpson recently died at Trinity, New Mexico. He is believed to have been the original oldest settler of Colorado and New Mexico. At San Jacinto, San Diego county, an artesian well flowing between eighty and ninety miners' inches of water a minute has just been finished. The depth of the well is 217 feet. The wheels of a dray passed over the leg of a child of Michael Burns at Sainun, Saturday, breaking the leg. Burns became insane over the accident and has been committed to Napa. The sportsmen of San Bernardino are making efforts to secure a number of wild tarkeys from the northern part of Arizona for breeding purposes. It is believed they would readily adapt themselves to contain parts of the county. Dr. Kellogg was arrested in San Bernardino a few days since for practicing without a license. The jury disagreed. He says this is the forty-second time he has been arrested on the same charge, and he has never been convicted. A beautiful gold nugget weighing $225 was recently picked up in Tole canyon, on the east side of the Inyo mountains. The chispa is almost pure, there being but two or three small specks of quartz to be seen. The school house at Poway, San Diego county, was burned down Friday night with school books, library and organ. The loss is estimated at from $1,000 to $1,500. A public meeting was held in the building in the evening of the night it was burned. The swindling San Diego city lots sales are still being made in Chicago, as deeds are received almost daily for filing at the former place. One purchaser, whose lots are over twelve miles from the city, writes to know if it would be possible for him to have his meals sent to his house from a restaurant were he to come out and settle there. Monday forenoon Salatheal Chaney and H. C. Burson, brothers-in-law, met on the road two miles above Chico. Chaney was on foot. Burson, not wishing to talk, drove on when Chaney threw a rock and fired several shots at Burson without hitting him. Burson stopped, fired two shots and killed Chaney. Their dispute was about land and News of the Week. The young ladies of Hastings, Neh., have signed an agreement not to go with any young man who drinks, smokes, chews tobacco or sweats. When the books of the Grant Monument Committee closed in New York, Saturday night, for the week, the fund amounted to almost $80,000. It is now proposed that a great fair be held in Madison Square Garden for the benefit of the fund. Minnesota's Railroad Commissioners are bringing suits against several railroad companies for violation of a new law requiring suitable waiting rooms for passengers to be provided at all stations where the roads do business. In the Brunswick Valley, I. T., recently, a mountain lion killed an 8-year-old boy within a short distance of his home. The boy's father saw the lion seize him and running for his gun, killed the animal, but too late to save the boy's life. The Massachusetts State Board of Health is overhauling the draggists, to see whether they keep drugs up to the standard. In one case it was found that the opium was adulterated 90 per cent; that the wine was merely alcohol and that a quarter of the sugar was dirt. At Milwaukee, a row occurred between differing factions of St. Hedgweig's (Polish) Church Society on Sunday, in which a number were cut with knives, wounded with stones and clubs or seriously injured in other ways. Six participants, members of the church, have been arrested and jailed. The recently-appointed postmaster at Bridgeport, Marion county, Ind., is said to have served a two-year term in the penitentiary for larceny. Congressman Proderick of Iowa has secured the appointment as postmaster in a town in his district of a man who was released from prison three weeks before Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated. Six tramps were released from jail at Munice, Ind., and made to run the gauntlet of nearly two hundred men and boys, armed with whips and clubs, formed in line. The tramps fled down the line and ran into the river, which was not very deep. All emerged safely on the other side and soon disappeared down the railroad. The family of Wm. Talmedge of Des Moines have fallen heir to an estate in England worth $1,500,000. The estate is one of the oldest in England and comes through the wife of Mr. Talmedge, who has been dead three years, leaving her husband three children. Mr. Talmedge was formerly a poor man, having barely enough property to take him to the seat of his good fortune. He "Holdah how Pleasant it is," etc. About 10 o'clock Monday evening Major Harma Bill board once for help in front of his house. The Majer lost no time in getting to the town, where he found a small boy in the hands of quite a powerful young man who appeared to be cheking him. The first act of the Majer was to grab the man and land him about twenty feet away in a zanja. Bell was about to follow up his victim when the latter begged to be let up saying at the same time: "Mr. Bell, don't you know me?" Upon getting a glimpse of the man he was recognized and then explanations were in order. It appears that the two are brothers and belong to a respectable family, but the one who committed the assault is a sort of exile from home, and it coming to his care that his younger brother had just been presented by his mother with a fine gold watch and chain, it irritated him to such an extent that he resolved to waylay his brother and rob him. Only for the Majer's interference he might have been successful. He finally agreed that if Mr. Bell would say nothing and let him go he would never attempt a similar act.-Express. Grape Notes. The wine yield of Napa county will not exceed one-third that of last year. Twenty dollars per ton is being paid in St. Helena for grapes that usually have brought $25 to $30 per ton. The St. Helena Star says that "during the very hot days early this [last] week crushing had to be suspended to a great extent at some of the wine cellars on account of the heat being too great for good fermentation." NEW ADVERTISEMENTS. "We use sound sense to let the public know, Our goods are meant for use and not for shear." The swindling San Diego city lots sales are still being made in Chicago, as deeds are received almost daily for billing at the former place. One purchaser, whose lots are over twelve miles from the city, writes to know if it would be possible for him to have his meals sent to his house from a restaurant were he to come out and settle there. Monday forenoon Salatheal Chaney and H.C. Burson, brothers-in-law, met on the road two miles above Chico. Chaney was on foot, Burson, not wishing to talk, drove on when Chaney threw a rock and fired several shots at Burson without hitting him. Burson stopped, fired two shots and killed Chaney. Their dispute was about land and family matters. The body of Chaney was brought to Chico. An accident occurred at Senator Sharon's place, near Belmont, on Monday afternoon. Hans Hansen and James Pomeroy were drilling out an old blast in a quarry in the rear of the house, when the charge went off seriously injuring both men. Hansen is badly powder-burned, torn and bruised on the legs, arms and in the face. His right leg was torn and bruised from the foot to above the knee, his hands badly lacerated, and some of the fingers broken. His face is almost unrecognizable. Both eyes were injured, the sight of the left, it is thought, being permanently impaired. Pomeroy's right arm was broken above the wrist, and he was powder-burned about the face. Hansen was holding the drill and Pomeroy was driving. Shippera have begun to figure on the quantity of Pacific Coast wheat there will be for export. A statement was sent to England two weeks ago that the quantity would not exceed four million bushels. Conservative dealers unheiligly state that this estimate is entirely erroneous. They figure as follows: This year's crop, twenty-three million bushels; carried over from last year, ten millions; total quantity of wheat in California and Oregon at the present time, thirty-three million bushels. Deduct what is required for local uses and seeding and there will remain eight hundred thousand tons, or say twenty-six million bushels available for export. This includes the Oregon wheat crop estimated at three million bushels for export. As much of California's grain is still in the field no one has any positive knowledge of the actual quantity on hand. At Tombatone, on Monday, Mrs. Burke attempted to light a fire with coal oil. The result was a sad tragedy. She was at the cabin of Mrs. Chatham, who was lying sick. Mrs. Burke desired to make her some tea, and making use of an oil can it exploded, setting fire to the woman's dress and to the house. E.S. McNulty, a miner living next door, heard the report and looking out discovered the fire. He rushed into the house, seized the two women, who seemed paralyzed with fear, and dragged them from the burning room. Mrs. Burke, burning as she was, rushed into the house to save her child which she supposed was in the flames, but which was safe in the yard at the time. McNulty again entered the flames, took Mrs. Burke, now terribly burned, and brought her out of the fire. Mrs. Burke's life is depaired of, but McNulty is comparatively uninjured. Mrs. Chatham was seriously burned around the feet. The loss to the building is about $1,200. A Georgia Romance In a small cabin near Fayetteville, Ga., lives a female hermit, Miss Sarah Landreau. She is sixty years old, and for thirty years has occupied her present abode, refusing all association with people around her and living in the rudest manner. She belongs to one of the richest families in Southern Georgia, and thirty-five years ago was one of the A Georgia Romance. In a small cabin near Fayetteville, Ga., lives a female hermit, Miss Sarah Landreau. She is sixty years old, and for thirty years has occupied her present abode, refusing all association with people around her and living in the rudeest manner. She belongs to one of the richest families in Southern Georgia, and thirty-five years ago was one of the belles who graced Savannah society. She was sought in marriage by a young gentleman of that city, and the arrangements for the wedding were elaborate. Her toilets were ordered from New York. On the appointed night she was doomed to disappointment, for the groom came not. When the news was received next day that he had eloped with a lady who was visiting at his father's house, it found the disappointed bride at the point of death. She recovered, however, and with a strong will which had characterized her life, she declared her purpose to live as a recluse. Thus she has lived ever since, stoutly refusing aid or comfort. Only once did she hear of her recreant lover, that he had entered a Georgia regiment during the war and was shot dead before Petereborg. In his coat pocket was found a picture of the girl whom he had so wronged. Arrivals of Chinese The following table shows the increase in the number of Chinese landed at San Francisco from year to year since the passage of the restriction Act, the figures being taken from the records of the Customhouse: | Year | 1835 | 1836 | 1837 | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | January | 329 | 328 | 377 | | February | 47 | 36 | 184 | | March | 43 | 119 | 180 | | April | 104 | 913 | 250 | | May | 574 | 702 | 1,678 | | June | 230 | 1,632 | 1,4 | | July | 100 | 1,120 | 1,568 | | August | 298 | 340 | 1,946 | | September | 515 | 427 | - | October | 620 | 690 | - | November | 1050 | 270 | - | December | 7140 | 147 | - This includes the present month, which has already brought the total landing reported for the year 1835 up to 7,000. Winans and John Cramer, neither of them over sixteen years old. A thorough investigation was instituted and the suspicious actions of the boys led to their arrest. They strongly asserted their innocence but finally confessed that the murderer was a companion of about the same age. They stated that he made a criminal assault on Miss Huff but she resisted him, so that he was compelled to shoot her to get away. The boys say they were fully half a mile from the scene, but heard the pistol shot and beard the girl scream several times. Six weeks ago the Spanish steamer Humaca, bound for Nova Scotia, went ashore on Murr Ledge, nine miles off Grand Manan. The owner sent a crew of twenty men from St. John to wreck her. Tuesday afternoon a tug passed and offered to take the men ashore as a storm was threatened, but they refused the offer. A terrible gale raged early in the morning and when it cleared off the people on Grand Manan noticed that the steamer had disappeared. There is no trace of the steamer or men. The vessel must have been broken to pieces during the storm and sunk with all on board. The crew all belong in St. John. Further particulars concerning the wreck: Eleven men were drowned on the wrecked steamer at Grand Manan yesterday and not twenty as before reported. Further particulars are that the sea began to break over the wreck Wednesday foreseen and she began to break up. No assistance could be rendered.
