The April report from the Agrioultnn Department on the condition of tl 'winter grain says, tho low temperutui in the month of March, and acoumul tiona of winter snow aud ice, have r tarded the springing of vegetable Hf and tinged with gloom the views of loc reporters over a large area; at the da of the returns, snow still covered deep the grain fields, and only coojeotur founded on the forwardness and vigor the plants at the opening of winter, ai on the mechanical condition of the so and the severity of the season, cou point to the probable status of the wi ter grain; the general tenor of repoi carries the idea, not of sweeping destru tion by freezing, but of injury by tlii ning out by killing in spots and patch? and especially by retarding an early BU and vigorous growth; in many cases t plants, apparently dead, were only alec ing; unpromising in appearance, b firmly rooted and ready with favori; warmth and sunshine, to start into sn and steady, if not rapid growth. Wh( tho fields were drained, tho soil deep a mellow, the casualties of winter bo beon unknown; where the seeding v, -done with the drill, on land having a fair degree of suitable preparation, -most absolute immunity from loss freezing has been Becnred.

The Washington C?tronicle publishes a two-column article by Mrs. Emily Edson Briggs, a newspaper correspondent known by tho norn de plume of "Olivia," in which shu indicates very dearly ber opinion that Miss Pamela Cunningham, who is regent of tho Mount Vernon estate, has a rather too "good thing of it." Miss Cunningham's regency i. undor the charter passed by the Virginia Legislature authorizing the "Mount Vernon Ladies' Association of tho Union" to purchase 200 acres of that estate, including the mansion and the tomb of Washington; but tho writer alleges that by means of u second char? ter, quietly lobbied through the Legisla? ture, Miss Cunningham has become, to all practical intents and purposes, tho virtual owner of the property for lifo, and now lives on it in extravagant style, with a great retinue of servants, her ex? penses paid for vnrioua pleasure trips, Sec. A vioe-regent is to bu appointed by her to represent each State, who aro to meet once a year for the government of tho association. At long periods, some four or five of thom are brought toge gether; they enjoy Miss Cunningham's hospitality for a time, and ask nu ques? tions as to her management of affairs. She has deponed tho national secretary and appoiuted a private secretary, who also preserves a discreet silence, and no living hoing outside of the clique nt Mouut Vernon hus a knowledge about the funds thut ure culled for, received, and never accounted for or retutued. So says Mrs. Briggs, in all of which, of course, no ono would uccuse her of being tho least envious. She further alleges that although ?200,000 aro nov asked for by the regent, the estate i? self-sup? porting on account of its various sources of income. Tho acousatious will proba? bly lead to investigation, and meantime it will hu prudent not to jump to con? clusions on the subject. It muy bo diamoud cut diamond." IMPORTANT DISCOVERY AT JERUSALEM. An important discovery has been made at Jerusalem, by Mr. C. Schick. Capt. Warren, while conductiug tbe excava? tions mado at Jerusalem by the Palestine Exploring Fuud, explored a remarkable rock-hewn passage leading Southward toward tho templo aroa from tho sub-way at the Conveut of the Sisters of Zion. Mr. Schick has fouud a continuation of this passage, or rather aqueduct, as it now proves to be, toward the North wall of the city, a little East of tho Damascus gato. At this point, the aqueduct hus boen cut in solid rock, which lies in front of and communicates with tho well known caverns. It is, therefore, older tliun these, and caa hardly be assigned a later date than that of thu kings of Ju? dah. Mr. Schick was unable at the time to follow np his discovery, but the Pales? tine Exploration Fund have taken tho mutter in hand, nml hope to find tho source from which the water is derived. The existence of the aqueduct lately dis? covered is a strong argument in favor of tho belief that tho city of David occu? pied a portion of Mouut Moriah, and it may possibly enable us to identify the pool or Borne uource of it as tho Upper Gihon, nud Silvuur as Gihon in the val ley. A CURIOUS TROPHY.-The Smithsonian Institute baa just recoived u curiosity of great novelty and value for the national museum. It is a battle trophy of a race of natives living near tho head-waters of the Amazon Uiver, and is tho head of a captive condensed by some unknown process to a hizo not more than threo inches in diameter, the original propor? tions of tho.features being preserved. It looks liko the head of somo pigmy. These trophies aro esteemed highly by tho natives, and they are difficult to ob? tain. Only ono other is known to have boen brought to this country. This one was a present to tho institute by Ray? mond do Feiger, of Eucudor, through E. Rumsey Wing, our Ministor to Quito. [ Wash inglon Slav. A Paris correspondent rolates tho story of a sad wedding in that city. Tho whole party came out of church weep? ing. The bride wept, tho mother wept, the company wopt, and tho groom wept moro copiously than all combined. Thu only persons who did not weep were four meu and u child. The child was born out of wedlock, and to give it n name, its parents had married before they parted forever. Tho groom was a young clerk, sentenced lo transportation for forgery, and he was to leavo tho following morn? ing. The four men who accompanied him were polico agents, ordered to go with him to church and to the Mayor's office, and to bring him safo back to prison, once tho marriage was col?. prated. No MONEY.-Radio 1 Governors are "death" on contingont funds. Conley, of Georgia, wo believe, spent the whole year's allowance in about thirty days, and now, saya the Floridian, about Gov. Day's exploits in the last month or two: "Aoting Gov. Day, as wo learn, doea not fool that ho is socuro in office. Ile has drawn all the Governor's contingent fund appropriated by tho last Legisla ture, amounting to 81,000, so that if thc Supreme Court should determino that tho refusal of tho High Court of Im? peachment to give Reed a trial operates as an acquittal, poor Recd will not find a dollar o> contingent fund left. Day has pocketed it all, and thus proves as .thrifty' as his predecessor." Tho World assorte that in seduction, breach of promise, railway accident and other such emotional suits, juries are proverbialy inclined to favor Hie al? leged victim. Tho World might have truthfully added, that ono talented liar is worth a dozen honest witnesses in a ouse before nu average jury, and that tho present jury system might lo be abolish? ed throughout thu country, before an? other case is allowed to come to trial. The female crowned heads of Europe are, os a general rule, of feeble health the Queen of Spain being the only ono of them who enjoya sound health. Thus, it is stated that the Empress of Austria is consumptive, tho Empress of Russia suffers from gout und dropsy of the heart. The Empress of Germany is a viotim of rheumatism, the Queen of Hol? land is subject to frequent lits of hyste? ria, the Queen ol Portugal is a con? tinued invalid, aud the Queen of Den? mark is deaf. A Marshall, Iowa, paper says this is true: "A small child of Mr. Johu Houso was lying nt the point of death, when soddenly ho rivived. Directly after the child revived a flash of light? ning passed through the room, and was immediately followed by a blight or whitish object, abont the BIZO and shape of a dove with expanded wings. It moved to the bed on whioh the child wes lying, and for a few moments hovered over the child and thou disappeared. In about fifteen miuutes the child expired." DANGEROUS.-The most dangerous piece of machinery any mau ever at? tempted to operate is oue of tho shoddy portablo uteam engines manufactured by Eastern machinists and sont West and South for salo. We can now call to mind the explosion of at least one dozen of these engines within 200 miles of Louisville iu the post twelve months, re? sulting in the slaughter of not less than thirty persons -Louisville Lcilqer. Receutly what was, according to popu lur verdict, tho well knowu and familial "great se?-.serpent," scales, hairy mane and all, was Keen by the inhabitants oi Hauxland, off tho coast of Ramsey, Hooting iu the oiling. During the night, the creature was washed ashore, ant proved to be a log of wood, eighteen fee' long, covered with barnacles, each froa ton to eighteen inches in length.

Poon COMPULSATION.-James O'Neil huH just been released from the Rhod Island State Prison, having, after eigh years' incarceration, beon proved iuuo cent. Tho Providence JourtuU think tho State should at least compensate hie at tho ruto of 33Jj couts a day for th groat wroug whie? ho has suffered. Inna Kinrk-as tho name, according t the Latin orthography would be Spelle? -of Youngtown, Ohio, a wealthy "swee sixteen" year old. hus eloped with a prc fessional burglar, whose high-soundiu appellation of Pitz Clareuco Montau roney seduced her from her doting dui dy's domicil. A French fashion is being observed i New York-that of scuding to a ladj ou her birth-day, a largo cakouruamcn ed with caudles, each candi? represen ing a year of her life. This is set on table and the candles lighted, aud piece presented to tho friends who ai present. A bar of iron worth $5 worked ?ni horse shoes is worth ?10.50; made iu needles it is worth S355; m ule into pe knife blades it is worth $3,2S-&; mai iuto balance springs of watches it worth 8250.000. Such is tho power industrious labor over raw material. When a steudy, well-behaved youl man is seeu shaking hands with a pun and bidding it au affectionate goo night, or paying, "Poor old Corbi.s< Robscrew," there may be a faint appr hension that ho bas been "taking son: thing." St. Louis continues her bacchanuli orgies, and her preachers arc making li pulpits ring with sermons on the te: "Wo unto him that giveth his neighli drink, that putteth tho bottle to him a makoth him druukeu also."
