I The Daily Review MONDAY. JUNE 2. 18 J. VIEWS AND RKVItW A Tennessee Judge deserves the thanks of unmarried ladies. He bas decided that a woman is not an old maid until she is thirty-five. A mulatto is not a negro, according to a decision j recently rendered by Judge Woerner, of St. Louis, and the statute of Missouri forbidding intermarriage of whites and negroes does not apply to mu latt es. The Niagara Falls Prospect I'ark Company have contracted for an elec trie light machine, and intend towlocate the lights in such position as will enable them to illuminate the great cataract on a magnificent scale. The New York Baby Show, like the 'PrettieBt Girl Exhibition' about a year ago, turned out to be miserable swindle and the mothers of the little darlings are now looking for the manager-who ran off with the 'gate money.' Nails grow more rapidly in children than in adults, and faster in summer than in winter. Tbose of the right hand grow taster than those of the left, and in pro portion to the length of the fingers. Those of the middle finger are the quickest in growth. Mrs Benner, the widow of the brave Lieut Benner, who died of yellow fever while in command of the steamer John M Chambers, complains that her pens on ($640) is too small, and Representative Springer is going to try to have it increas ed to $1,800 a year. The Galveston News says the fact is admitted all around that emigration to Texas, if not coming to an abrupt close, is greatly on the wane. The emigratio agents of the railroads are all discouraged Real estate ic Texas has depreciated in value the last two years fully 8 per cent. The iajard of Caprcra will know Gari baldi no more. He has executed a for mal notarial act by which he renounces his recognized domicile as being there and declares it permanently established in Rome. He has possibly done this in order effectively to contradict the state ment given forth, like thousands of others from this spot, with all the assertion oft authenticity, that, disgusted with his visi to Rome, he intended returning to Capri r.i as speedily as possible. llr. Paddy Ryan, of Troy, has challeng ed Mr. John Dwyer, of Brooklyn, to fight in the priza ring. Mr. Ryan maken no secret of the matter, although the law pro vides explicitly for punishing the sender of such a challenge, as well as the Jaclual figh'.er. Way should he fear any inconve nience".' He was lately matched against Mr. Dwyer, and his constant companion and backer was a Police Justice of Troy, while Mr. Dwyer, whose brother is an Alderman in Brooklyn, lately returned opeuly and unmolested from a public prize fight with Mr. Jimmy Elliott. Troy and Brooklyn may be sufferers, but there seems to be no danger of harm to Mr. Ryan or Mr. Dwyer. Rather a remarkable breach of promise case has been tried iu London. Mr. Jackson contracted to marry Miss Paris. Subsequently he became insane, Where upon Miss Paris sued him for not marry ing her, and has actually recovered $250. The Lord Chief Baron ruled that the ac tion could be main tamed, and that the defendant's lunacy did not make a bit of difference. It waa argued that so far from being incapacitated for marriage by his lunacy, he all the more needed a wif0 to take care of him! The thing was settled upon purely abstract principles It was nothing that poor Mr. Jackson couldn't be married; that no clergyman would marry a maniac. It was shown that Mr Jackson was rapidly recovering and when restored to his senses mi marry Miss Paris; but that didn't change the verdict. Miss Paris got her $250. A clua has at last been found to the robberies of late very prevalent from charity boxes in the Paris churches. In one of the churches, the other day, an in dividual was noticed, at the most solemn moment of the celebration of mass, dip ping a piece of whalebone assiduously in to a poor box. As coin after coin emer ged from the aperture in rapid success ion, as though conjured up by the magic wand of the unknown appropriator of the money, the beadle thought fit to call in a policeman. The end of the whalebone was found to be thickly laid over with glue. In this way the mysterious rob bories were accounted for, as letters were found on the prisoner proving that be was a member of a society earning a very handsome income by the simple method desciibed above. Its central offices are at Geneva; it has an administrative counc'l, a finance committee, and many branch establishments. Each member -usually brings into the common fund $100 a day at least. IMPROVING BUSINESS. The New York Public reports from fourteen American cities the gain in busi ness last week over the corresponding rtek nl .ast year, as fIiowb by the clear ing house returns. Tne Highest ain was shown by New York and was GC 8 per cent. Lou'iHviMe bhowed 50.7 gain 'Jhicago 33 1. The average of the whole fourteen was 17 4 The Record says: Only three towns show a decrease San FraucUco, 2 2 10, New Orleans, 3 7-10; Lowell 3 6-10. these exchanges are decidedly more favorable than for any week this year. The aggregate for all the cities is nearly $773,000,000, against only $537,000,000 for the same week last year. As usual considerable part of this gain in New York is due to heavy stock operations, though ibcreasc in other transactions, very largely ouisid of New York exchanges, show, an in crease of nearly thirteen per cent. this, notwithstangingthe loss at San Francisco, where there has been a marked decline in operations in mining stocks, and likely to be a still greater decrease in consequence ot the adoption of the new Consti-ution . On the whole, the exchanges indicate a continuous increase of the volume of business, andjjin a most all parts of the country. l FLOOD TIDE IN BUSINESS. The Boeton Itavellvr, of a recent date, says every day's experience and every day's news from other parts of the c- uu try show that the flood tide of bugines-s has set in. A statement of the New York Public of the gain last week over the cor responding week of last year, fixes the improvement in Boatou at 13.5 per cent. which is below the general average; but the Traveller says last week najure flan nels were sold in this one week than the total amount for the six mouths previous, and manufacturers are declining to iix prices ahead. This is the legitimate re suit of a settled conviction on the part of business men throughout the country that the flood is coming in strong. Another significant fact is the starting up of the various iron concerns in Pennsylvania and the West. This is, perhaps, the most im portant industry west of the Alleghany Mountains, and its revival after so long a depression is in the highest degree en couraging. Within the past three! months there have been several thousands of miles of new railroads surveyed, and within a very short time a large portion has been put under contract. All these things are indica tive of a vast increase of labor employment and thus emigration to the West from the over crowded localities of the East be comes another and important factor in the restoration of business. Parties who are in a position to be well-informed are of opinion that there will be a large excess o foieign immigration this season, the news of a large prospective demand for labor having already crossed. Still another lm portant feature is the increase of sales of land grants, both by railroad corporations and government. The business tide is evl dently rolling inward. THE PLAN OP OPERATION. The committee of th Senate and House Democratic caucuses held a joint meeting in Washington on Saturday last, the 31st ult., at which it was decided to reconi' mend that the army appropriation bil be passed in .the usual form, making ap propriations for the entire year, but with the proviso that no money so appropria ted shall be used fcr employing the army for police purposes at the polls. It is very probable that the bill will be drawn and presented to the : House at an early day, but not, however,; until it has been fully discussed in full Democratic 1 t ! 1 X 1 A. caucus, wnicn win convene 10-nigm, June 2nd. There was but very little op position to the proposed recommendation by members of the caucus committee, and when fairly presented before either House there will probably be but little delay in its passage. The same committee, at the same meet ing, also decided that the legislative bill be passed in like manner, but with the omission of the provision for supervisors of elections and deputy marshals; and also that the clauses relative; to the repeal of the test oath and modification of the jury system be passed as a separate bill. These latter will also in all probability be speedily acted upon by the House and Senate, and will pass without Demo cratic appropriation, and we "iy pre sume that all these bills will have passed and be laid before Mr Hayes within the next two weeks. What he may see fit to do with them must remain a matter of conjecture, which can jonly be fore shadowed by the action i of Republican members when they are properly before the House and Senate. Of course, Mr Hajes has but very little voice or choice in the matter ,hut will be guided and directed in his action by Chandler, Garfield & Go. The present proposd legislation removes every objection which he claims has necessitated a veto, and it remains to be seen whether he will now stand by his previous utterances or not, or, rather, whether his advisors aud directors will allow him to do so, or compel him to back down from the position taken in his la t veto message. Madame Adeliaa Patti is now precisely thirty-four years old, and her yoic3 is at the fullness of its charms. : The largest cultivated wheat farm on the globe is said to be the Grondtn farm not far from the town of Fargo, Dakota. It embr cjs some 40 000 acres, both Gov erment and railway land, and lies close to the Red River Divided into four parts t h dwellings, granaries, machine shops, e!evatjrs, stibles for 200 horses, and room for staring 1,000.000 bushe s of graiu. Besides I be wheat farm, there is a stock tarm of 20,000 acres. In seeding time 70 to 80 men are employed, and iuritg harvest 250 to 300 men. Seed ing kx'gius about April 9, aud continues through the month, and is done very sys tematically, the macbiues following one another around the field some four rods apart. Gutting begins about August 8, and ends the fore part of Se ptember, sue eeded by the thrashing, with eight steam thrashers. After thrashing the stubble ground iu ploughed with great ploughs drawn by three horses and cutting two turrows, and this goes on until the weath er is cold enough to freeze, usually about November 1. There are many other large farms in the Territory. The aver age yield of the Dakota wheat farm is from 20 to 25 bushels per ere. CLIPPINGS Body snat ching is regarded as rather a Serious offense at Utioa, N Y, where several professionals have just been sentenced to terms of imprisonment rauging from five to ten years each.

They will advsnce the prioe of coal next month ten cents a ton from the amount to which over production and no demand have reduced it. A further advance of twenty-five cents a ton in July, and one of fifty cents In August are expeoted. Oue or two oompauies do net make an advance in prices, and the effect will be tr cause them to dispose oi tneir stooK on nana rapidly, leaving prices at the higher figure. The fact that ooal is to be more costly, will not,, however, be es pec ally pleasing to consumers, unless thev find consolation in the thought of the general prosperity whioh the rise indicates.
