THERE are at present several old con- victs at Frcmantlc(Westralia) jail who, though their time has long expired, live on there. They give as their new son thatnll the people they knew. in the old country must be long since dead, so they prefer to remain where so much of their life has been spent. The old follows are allowed to go into town, but must be back in time for lopkup. ' . FROM WASHINGTON. ~ Preliminary orderc were issued. by Adjt. Gen. Corbin providing for the muster out 50,000 volunteers in the next month. Maj. E. G. Rathbone, of Ohio, will have charge of, the postal service in Cuba. The president appointed Ethan A.

The. bottle is dropped into the water, the fisherman sinking his line alongside. It appears that the sight of the wriggling‘conteuts of the bottle so excites the uppeti‘teszof the fluny tribes that they {all easy victims to the baited hooks. ’ l A nnAucu of agriculture which is claiming much attention“_fr0m the farmers and others in St. Bernard, La... and which promises__to reach a state of high development Within the next few years. is orange culture.

Tm: recent wreck of the steamship Mohegan on the Manacles, neargth'c Lizard, has led to, the suggestion that, the disaster was due to the magnetic influence of these rocks‘ on the ship’s compass. Among those who favor the view that the ship’s compass was at fault is. Prof. S. P. Thompson, of Eng. land, wh'b'hints that it is conceivable that in adjusting the compasses before Ithe voyage the compensation had been applied in the wrong “direction. .
