A French newspaper states, with regard to the
parasites found in the potato, that the microscope
reveals to ns the existence of a uniall black spot,
of the diameter of a pin's head, in the potato. In
this small spase can be detected some two hun?
dred ferocious animals of a coleoptric form, which1
hite and tear each other with continued fury. It
is easy to comprehend the potato disease when
ouch an intestine warfare is raging.

000 are in England, 100,00) in Scotland, and 50,000

nent of Europe; 300,000 in the United States, and
?0,000 in other parts of the world. Lr England
there are two or three thousand persons initiated

America. Those Indians, we are informed, aro
here for the purpose of going to school. They
and attracted considerable attention."
Among the rich coal fields of Southern Illinois
it a coal bed of some 23,000 acres, not far from
Chastor, on the Mississippi River, and about sixty
xatles below St. Louis. Over 18,000 acres of this
bed explorations have been made to suoh an ex?
tent as will show that tho greater part, if not the
whole of it, is underlaid with three strata of coal,
the uppefjiOKie of which is thirty-six feet beneath
the surface, and six feet thick, but with a good
limestone roof; the next beneath it, seventy-seven
feet deep, and four and a half feet thick, and the
lowermost one hundred and nineteen feet deep and
six foot thick. Tho coal found in this bcd is of
xemarkeblo excellence.
Tho Mormon Jea lei's are inclined to exaggerate
their nnmbors. and set down the popularon of
Salt Lake City at 35,000; but the Gentil-s, pc .ntmg
to the census of I860, which gave but 40,2jo in all
TJtah, say thire cannot be over 75,060 now in the
entire Territory. A gentloman who has Investi?
gated the matter somewhat fully this season, be
liovos the true population is about 100,000 souls
lor the Territory, and 15,000 or 16,000 for the city.
"Yet, because an ordinary sized house, whicb at the
East would scarcely bo occupied by eight or ton

We learn from the Kewport Hoosier state that
tao well at Lodi, Fountain County, was bored, last
week, some thirty-three and a half feet deoper, of
which twenty-five feet was tlirongb gray sand?

eight feet and six inches was whit? compact crys?
talline limestone, or marble, hard enough to mark
flau. The well before was discharging from two
thousand to throe thousand barrels of white sul?
phur water. This deepening increased tho flow
wonderfully, and it is estimated that the wftter diZ
charged would amount to from two hundredthorT
?and to two hundred and fifty thousand salions
per dav, thus more than doubling tho discharge
of the famous YGrenette" well at tho Hotel dea
Invalides in Paris. The temperature ot the well

TUESDAY MORNING, KEBBTJARY 5, 1887.
SOUTHERN RELIEF.
Somo days ago a number of benovolont geutlo
I mon in tho city of Now York, appalled and dis?
tressed at thc great destitution of a groat part of
the South, resolved to devise moans for an allevia?
tion of this distress. A meeting was callod, and
took place at tho Coopor Instituto on ?riday night,
tho 25th ult. There woro many persons present;
j and ?mung thom we note the illuminati of Gotham
in every walk of lifo. Mr. PETES COOPEE, the
Cfoairmin, stated the object of tho meeting in a
fow appropriate remarks. Ho was followed by a
Mr. B BIGHT, "a Southern gontleman," who enter?
ed into some particulars in regard to tho scarcity
of breadstuffs in certain parts of the South. Evo?
lutions wore naxt submitted and adopted, urging
1 tue am)oit"-i"?"i' ? f<m"""'n itoiiof Coo>=a?"=;p_?
Rev. HENRY WABD BEECHES then addressed tho
audienco, and with that happy faculty, so charac?
teristic of tho man, ho at once plunged in medias
res, and bofore his admirers had well had time to
recover from tho enthusiasts greeting they gave
him on his appearance, he had them all in tho
middle of tho-Fugitive Slave Law. Tho reverend
gontleman makes religion his trade, why not
charity ? He must havo a quidpro quo for all that
passes through his hands. He is willing to accord
rolief to thc suffering aud starving ex-rebelB, but
ho docs it under a protest. Ho gives thom a
lecture along with tho loaf. With a delicacy of
taste, which wo cannot but admiro, and a most
Christian uuostentaiiousness, ho takes this occa?
sion to romind thoso same starving Southerners,
that they once had tho upper handout now it was
otherwise. "Now, we. tho Yankees, are the top
rail, and you. Southern aristocrats, must come to
us and beg for tho crumbs that fall from our ta?
blas." These aro not Mr. BEECHEB'S words, but
tliis is certainly tho sum and substance of his re?
marks, if wc understand thc moaning of wordB,
and are to draw the inferences they naturally boar.
He spoke of the groat changes effected within the
past few years; "changes," ho says, "effected bj
reason, by thc deop moral instrumentality that
touched the vory vitals of life." Now, we do not
beliovo a word of this. Wo do not boliovo reason
had anything to do with it, but passion and pre?
judice a groat deal, assisted not a little by envy,
malice, hatred, and all uncharitableness. He next
told thc audience that one of the changes produced
by this late political convulsion, is tho fact now
everywhere acknowledged, that ono man is as good
as another. Mr. BEECHER hardly stated this pro?
position with sufficient emphasis. To do full jus?
tice to his party, he should havo said, that if the
"one man" was a black man, and tho "other" a
Southern white man, thon ono man is even bettor
than another.
Ho then proceeded to speak of the sin of slavery.
Mr. BEECHER has so long descanted on this his
special hobby, that he cannot readily adapt him?
self lo the changed condition of the timos, and
still continue, to prate about the sin of slaver}'.
But Mr. BEEOHEB moans well; at least we hope so.
He says : "We want the moral and social element
of reconstruction. The nation is never going to
bo reconstructed by an edict. Sympathy, confi?
dence affoction, the interplay of interests, mutual
respect, at last reopening ofter a long, long inter
mioaioii, into intormutual life." This is all true;
but wo do not see how it is to be accomplished.
Certainly not by making speeches like this of Mr.
BEBCHEB'S. Perhaps, he is disposed only to regard
tho colored population of the South, tho "loyal?
ists," os entitled to sympathy; and thinks the pro
sent generation of Southern whites ara not sus?
ceptible of social and political regeneration. Ii
this is his belief, we can understand bim. Thus,
for instance, he says :
Massachusetts was a plucky old State_[ap?
plause]-and though the very back bono of Puri?
tanism waa supposed to run through that State
and though her soldiers polished at Belle Me and
in other prisons, she had built schools near those
rory points whore five hundred or one thousand
boys, the children of those wno carried tho knife
and pistol, vere educated, and in this way soo had
rovenged herself on their children.
Whoso children are these, now so tenderly- taught
and token euro of by Massachusetts school-marms?
They axe the frooihnen; the nation's young wards.
Why mention them in thia connection ? No one
doubted the fact of their receiving full care and
attention at tho hands of the negrophili3ts.
Tho Reverend gentleman then wound np wiri
some coarso humor, which tickled his audience.
HOEACE GHEELEV followed, and administered a
a well-merited rebuke to the Rev. HEHBY WARD.
He said
That he did not doom it advisable to bring in
tho subject of politics in a question which was
simply ono of human suffering, lest it might be
supposed a solf-righteouaness and bitterness were
blondcd in with what ought to be a mere kind?
ness. [Take that, Mr. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher.!
There was a quarter of a million of widows in the
?outh who were not accustomed to earn a live?
lihood, and there was a quarter of a million
more of maiuiod soldiers who could not work
and who had families dependintr on their ex?
ertions. Those woro now in destitution and re
Smred all tho assistance that' could be given
lom. Our soldiors had pensions which mitigated
toe,B"fienngs of their f&m?ies; we had groat chari?
table funda duriDg the war; but these wera more
scanty m the South, and they had nothing to re?
present our pensions. Then tho war passed over
tue homes of the South. It made a ?Teat differ
once whether war trampled down your fields or
the fields of thoso a thousand milos away. All the
movements of armies and their requirements,
camp fires, &c., greatly destroyed and kept away
tho material of a country, in this case there was
unusual desolation in tho South. All tho factories
and foundries were contributing to the support of
these people, and these were burned as a means of
weakening tho South. Cotton, too, was burned,
and when not burned was stolen-[laughter]-m
somo way or other. Besides, the SoutlTstood out
so long against hope that nearly every tojt of the
19fi?&v ?St .??S?ITIS? bl kost?o armies excent
ZS ^?y*\ ^? S?ut? ^^wS^SSrf

He aaid a good deal more, all troo, and all in
good spirit; and was listened to with the most in?
tense interest. That touching allusion to cotton
stealing came home and seemed to take particular
ly well. Y/ho will again say our Northern brethren
I cannot boar to hoar tho truth ?
I Bey. Br. KHTDBICK also mado somo remarks
sm.nole to the occasion. We are sorry to find that
he 3oe3 not yet consider himself sufficiently strone
m the confidence of bis Northern friends, and
deemed it necessary to tell them that he "differs
from his many warm friends in tho South on many
points. His many friends in Charleston will be
surprised to loam this. HORACE made a great
mistake when ho said that they who go beyond
tho seas change their skies but not their minds
kron "coastwise navigation" can produce a
wonderful chango pf opinion. We have had re?
peated instances of thia within the last few years.
